QotD: I'd Like To Thank...

If you had a CD or album coming out, who would you thank in the liner notes?

I believe I'd thank my God, my family, my friends, the folks involved in the production of my album, and my fans, in roughly that order, and of course those broad categories would be broken out into lots of specific mentions of people by name and the reasons why I appreciate them.  I might also like to give props to favorite restaurants and towns and web sites and other uncategorized influences, if I were given sufficient space.

A sample, for example, off the top of my head:

"B. Would Like To Thank:

My Savior and Lord, Jesus, lover of my soul, rock of truth and perfect peace. -- o -- My immediate and extended family, of whom I am not ashamed, but whose names shall not be mentioned here for the sake of our privacy. -- o -- Best friends over the years: Jason, whose simple gift at age 6 was enough to help keep my birthplace in my heart; Tony, I doubt a truer lifelong friend exists to be found in this world; Daniel, for whom for a time I was happily foil and sidekick; Billy, inspirational musician and geek extreme; Veronica, she of the fire, whose stones outweigh anybody's; Donna, beloved confidante and all-around Awesome Girl. -- o -- Danielle, Zoe, Tandi, Hallie, Megan, Maureen, Christy, Sandra, Becca, Kelli, Shay and Lisa, and everybody from Edna and The Wash. -- o -- Nicole, Ida, Clara, and Annie. -- o -- Band mates: [...] Producer and other staff: [...] -- o -- Carl's Jr./Hardee's, for great grub, and for keeping B. from starving.  Pages For All Ages and Powell's. -- o -- Special thanks to my piano teacher, Mrs. R., and to one elementary-school teacher who encouraged a young aspiring harmonica player more than he will perhaps ever know.

Thank you, especially, dear fan, for listening to our music and believing in this humble little project.  The band and I have loved being able to meet so many of you after our shows.  You're in our thoughts and prayers."
