Singer/Songwriter Joseph Lorenzo Wise goes nostalgic this Thanksgiving with the release of his new single 'My Prayer'. Wise performs The Platters hit for the Holidays and says 'It's just the right song for this year. I wanted to do a song that took people back to a time when holding hands at a Drive-In Movie theater or strolling down the Boardwalk with your sweetheart was the feeling of the day. When Love was in the air and Romance was on the waves. What we have to day is just a mess, we need to look back to more pleasant times'.

Joseph Lorenzo Wise has released 'We Shall Overcome' for Black History Month. 'I never thought I would be releasing 'We Shall Overcome', as a record, but the response to the song has been overwhelming. These turbulent times have brought back the Civil Rights Anthem in a big way. Having grown up in Atlanta, Georgia during the height of the Civil Rights Movement, the song was sung all over the place, even just around the house as we hoped for a better brighter tomorrow. Then Dr. Martin Luther King was assassinated, and the song took on an even more powerful meaning as we sang it to mourn the loss of a great leader. I still remember Mahalia Jackson singing 'We Shall Overcome' to the crowd of fired up civil rights activists', Wise says.

On a beautiful afternoon in St. Thomas Virgin Islands, after a tasty barbeque lunch and shopping, the woman who was my Dream Date disappeared into the crowd of shoppers and tourists, without a trace. The chaperone was alarmed and shocked that we could not find Seneca anywhere. She had been acting a little weird at lunch and she seemed bothered by the itinerary the show had planned for us, which included a boat trip and lunch on St. John the next day. After an hour of waiting and searching, we returned to The Frenchman's Reef.... Without Seneca.
