Never Forget 9/11

Baltimore native Adam Marino of vs the Earth recently received the honor of being named a Finalist by the Song of the Year ( http://www.songoftheyear.com/ ) songwriting contest. Song of the Year is an international songwriting contest supporting VH-1’s Save the Music Foundation. The Song of the Year judges are some of the biggest names in music including many Grammy Award winners.

Song of the Year is excited to recognize Adam for his exceptional songwriting ability for the song Still Remember You. Adam competed against songwriters from all over the world for this honor. When asked what inspired the song Adam commented that “911”. “I just wanted to give something back to those who had loses so much”. “I went out on the porch on September 11th and the song just wrote itself”.

This is without a doubt one of the most emotional songs I have ever heard. Learn more about this remarkable group and their 9/11 tribute here and if you get the chance and are in the area, you can catch them at Break Away II Sports Lounge in Hagerstown, MD on September 19. They can really bring out the feelings you have inside!
