The Greatest Love
Music has always been part of River’s world, and he is the inspiration behind this song. When I wrote the song, I was sitting at the piano with River on my lap. When we recorded the song in the studio, River was present at every stage. When I was singing, River was right in front of me. And when we filmed this music video together, it became an experience I will never forget.

More Music From the Journey
Tout est possible
Tout est possible was the first song I released for River.
It is a half English, half French song where I talk to River about an adventure. I was raised in both languages, and I love speaking French to River. With French, we can express love and emotion in a completely different way.
