MY SONG IS A MALE ROCK BALLAD AND NOT THE FEMALE BALLAD WITH A SIMILAR TITLE! LOOK FOR the male vocal "You BelieveD In Me" and not the female vocal "You Believe In Me". www.perrysmith.com Thanks for listening! -Perry

This is song is great and inspirational. I suppose all the work Perry has done on producing this song explains his brief retirement from racquetball.

Wishing you a lot of luck, Perry, your song has my vote!
