 A Child's fantasy

On a sunny day...in a real dark room
Not too many years ... beyond the womb
She sits in a corner lost in her world
To many scars for such a tiny girl

In her secret place...silencing the noise
She plays with dolly...and her other toys
Dolly loves her of that she's sure
No need to cry like the times before

Safe within her mind
She leaves it all behind
And she will smile
If only for a little while
When innocence is interrupted
By a sick reality
Sometimes the only escape
Is in a Child's Fantasy

Dolly always tells her...it will be okay
While holding her close...she begins to sway
And they start to sing the song
That always rights the wrong
                  Dolly will always love you
                  Dolly will always love you

Any chance of a higher bitrate version..I think this one is suffering in the conversion ?

Hi CD
can you expand a bit on the ' bitrate version' ...I'm not sure what you mean.

Thanks

When you ( or whomever ) converted it to WMA  it's been done at a low quality ( bitrate ) with a  small file size and there are very audible artifacts especially at the top end. 

It says 128k which is usually ok on WMA files, but it sounds lower ? Maybe it was set to a faster conversion which reduces quality ?

I see
I understand what you're saying now...I've noticed the numbers when I 've chaged  other files in to mp3s for sure and it is usually @ 128...But I don't remember checking it this time.
Thanks for the imput.
