The Illusion Of Love

Hi Fans! 

 

I wanted to share with you an incredible project that was composed and performed by my dear friend Gary Forbes (also my writer and producer). He's given me permission to showcase his awesome album, The Illusion Of Love, where he brilliantly plays piano.

 

My favorites? I get goosebumps every time I hear him play When I Look In Your Eyes. And whenever I start doubting myself or just feeling low, I crank up the volume on Dream Chasin' and Lifelong Dream (part 2).

 

If you like good music, you'll love this album. I hope you'll listen and buy it to add to your favorite music playlist.

 

Thanks again for all your kind words and support. 

I love you all! 💘

 

Love, Ainzli

I had just gone through hell...

 

...the most traumatic period of my life. 

 

A comeback was in order. But first things first. I had to heal. I had to reflect. I had to make sense of it all.

"What the hell just happened to me anyway?" I perpetually remonstrated.

"How could such a seemingly innocent 'crush' lead to such pain? Such turmoil?"

As my fingers searched for answers amidst a forest of black and white ivory keys, it suddenly occurred to me there was only one logical explanation: my experience simply was not real. Satisfied with my profound revelation—I began to write ... THE ILLUSION OF LOVE.

Enjoy! 

Gary Forbes

Notes: 1. I wrote Dream Chasin' for my son Nicolas on my drive home after dropping him off for his first year in college. 2. Special thanks to my stunningly beautiful album cover modelCatrinel Menghia.
