Brian Temba	Sep 3, 2008 11:02 PM Hey guys, thanks for the add. Just thought I would share this with you all. Better Then - FREE download The inspiration behind this song, is the loss of my brother, Andile James Makiwne, who died in a car accident in '06. I know that there are people who lost someone they loved through street crime, accidents, wars, and death as a whole that will relate to what I felt when I lost my brother. I kept this song to myself for years but hope this acoustic performance of it would touch someone. ,, You can download the song for FREE on http://www.myspace.com/briantemba Much Love Brian Temba ,,
