“My show is very simple, what you see is what you get. If you come to my show, then I know you came to hear some real singing and to have a good time. I'm not a dancer; I'm a storyteller and a dreamer. I share these things with you onstage, it is just that simple.” Says Chinua.

If the Lord allows hang a shining star upon the highest bough
So have yourself a merry little Christmas now
