Not So Hidden Treasure

One of our own, the sweet, humble and madly talented Twitter, got a little surprise today. Some of us woke up and headed over to Gray’s for the latest news and discovered that the video Twitter put together last week was prominantly featured on the front page of the blog in tribute to Martin Luther King day. Nice, huh?

But then it got better. Taylor surfed over sometime this morning and saw it, watched it, and contacted Gray with his thoughts about both the video and the song Twitter used.

Hey, Taylor? We coulda told you about this woman’s talents a long time ago. She’s been providing us with stunning video captures and beautifully made videos for months now.

Twitter’s People Get Ready is a stirring and poignant combination of Taylor’s magnificent voice and stunning rendition of the song, her eye for just the right visuals, and more love for her fellow man than any one person has a right to expect from another human being.

I wish I could embed the video for you here but it seems WordPress and GoFish don’t play nicely together. So instead I’ll just link you up to Gray’s. If you haven’t already, go there, watch the video, send feedback to Twitter via Gray’s blog, the SOS board or the Boogie. Let’s lift her up and inspire her even further.

Way to go, Twitter!  We’re so proud of you!

I have said it before and I will say it again… Twitter you are a treasure to us all and I am so glad to be able to call you a friend….

twitter, i am so happy that i am part of this community that you call ‘home’. we have come to appreciate your talents over the past few months as you bring us such joy each day. thank you!

I am so happy for you Twitter, that you are getting a little attention for your amazing talent to capture the essence of the man, and I suspect others as well. You are a very talented sensitive soul! Thanks for sharing !

For those that have not had the privilege of viewing Twitter’s screen caps I say run, so not walk, to the sos board & find all you can … They are simply amazing.

Photographers take wonderful pictures of Taylor, it is their job to do so, but Twitter is a Taylor Hicks fan. She captures the essence of Taylor. One capture may show the funny side but another will literally take your breath away because of it’s simple beauty.

My wish for Twitter is that Taylor has the opportunity to view these caps & realize that a true fan can find, in his work, the elemental trueness that is Taylor. Truely amazing!
