Dear Creator: Just as all creation is one with the universe, may we too be one with each other. - Stevie Wonder
Special Thanks To:
My husband Bruce Sudano: For his loving care, patience and understanding - I love you; my children Mimi and Brooklyn, my parents, Mr. & Mrs. Gaines, my in-laws, Mr. & Mrs. Sudano, sisters, brother and relatives - for your love and support.
Quincy Jones: You will always stand out in a crowd, better than the rest; your reputation precedes you. Greatness is not attained merely by speaking of it, but by much hard work, long hours, the will to do one's best and Q, you've got it! - all - and now even I have a "Jones" for you.
David Geffen: Thank you for your good judgment and determination to get the best from everything and everyone you touch.
Ed Rosenblatt and the gang at Geffen Records: " Go get 'em guys."
Susan Munao: For your loyalty, good ideas and your hard work - "God bless you."
Appreciation To:
Bruce Swedien: Thank you so much for keeping track of the hundreds of tracks. You're great at what you do.
David Foster, Steve Lukather, Rod Temperton and Quincy Jones: The songwriters, extra special thanks for the beautiful songs you composed.
Bruce Springsteen: I had such fun "hangin' out and workin' out" for this song. Let's do it again real soon - "Alright Boss!"
James Ingram: You gave more than "Just Once". Thank you.
Dave Grusin, Herbie Hancock and "Mouse" Greg Phillinganes: Special thanks for working on "Rush Life" with me until you could sing it.
All Star Chorus: Dara Bernard, Dyan Cannon, Christopher Cross, James Ingram, Michael Jackson, Peggy Lipton Jones, Quincy Jones, Kenny Loggins, Michael McDonald, Lionel Richie, Brenda Russell, Dionne Warwick, and Stevie Wonder. "How can we miss with heavyweights like you." Thank you.
H.B. Barnum: Special Blessing for you and The "Life" Choir. You are all great.
Lee Abrams: What a great idea.
Nellie Prestwood: For the late nights to see me through, keeping me looking good. "God bless ya."
Pam Sherman: For hair.
Ruth Goldstein: For keeping a good count.
David Gotterer: For keeping track.
The Gang at the office: Andrew Gaines, Marie Bennett, Gerardo Bernard, Deborah Mailloux, Damaris Bernard, Daaron Grossa and Susan Wilson. Thank you.
All my fans: I dedicate the song "Livin' In America" to you for your kindness and loyalty.
In Memory Of Neil Bogart, who was instrumental in getting me to where I am today. He was a man who loved to live, and always had a goal. "Why head for a mountaintop when you're reaching for the sky." He made the world believe... they could see right through his eyes. I will always love you!
My Extra Special Thanks to God, the Father, for combining all of the above talents in such great harmony, for giving us these gifts and the ability to use them. I Praise The Lord and surrender all unto Him - Love, Donna
