2009...What's the plan?!
Writing a new album, finding the right team of people to work with, and seeing lots of number 1 songs! Seriously though, there's a lot of work to be done to sail past the competition. So whether it's a publishing or record deal, that's fine, as long as it's in the charts, on film/TV and performed live, Lisa will work and work to achieve it :>

Shake your pom-poms of support...join TheirSay...thank you, thank you, thank you!
