Music and Me: For our Canadian Troops and their families

AngelicPS | December 02, 2006

This is for the men and women serving over in Afghanistan and for those that have served. The day in the life of a soldier. To my friends over there now, please come home safe...We Miss You!! And Blake, May you Rest In Peace, I think of you everyday.

The pictures are from combatcamera.forces.gc.ca and some are from friends from their first tour. The songs are Soldier by Shawn Hlookoff and We Will Hope With You by 4runner (here)

I think everybody knows that Shawn Hlookoff is Canadian (BC boy!), but I knew nothing about 4runner. Found this:

We Will Hope With You
4Runner

4Runner is a country music vocal group made up of three seasoned industry veterans. Craig Morris, Lee Hilliard, and Michael Lusk each having a long history of lead and background singing. Signed to Polydor Records in 1995, 4Runner burst into the Country music scene with "Cain's Blood." 4Runner achieved a Top 5 single with "Cain's Blood" and sold over 200,000 albums. They were nominated for the Academy of Country Music's (ACM) Top New Vocal Group/Duet and the fan-based TNN/Music City News' Vocal Group of the Year in 1996.

"We Will Hope For You" is an example of putting yourself in the shoes of those who serve, and their families who support what they are doing for our great country.
