"The kind of hook I´ll walk away singing to my kids, my friends, my ex´s: `Did You Get What You Want?` I can sing this catchy melody for so many situations and before you know it, they´re singing it too! It´s more than pop on the west coast. It also has a southern country flavor sound that I feel would make the right male performing artist take it to the top of the charts in Nashville and other large ciries around the country, too. Robert, you and Andrew have done a fantastic collab with excellent lyrics and excellent sound."
Teresa Austin, Songwriter, June 2006
