‘Every time I visit OneTrackMinds, I learn something about music and something about the individuals revealing themselves through their song choice. Music is a lifelong lover and companion. She can make you laugh, move and weep against your will. She will always make you remember.’ Deborah Frances White
‘OneTrackMinds is like oxytocin for the soul.’ Pauline Eyre
