When I wrote One Shining Moment, thirty four years ago, it was an inspired song, written about inspiration.  I have protected that meaning throughout the subsequent years. 

It has nothing to do with politics…entirely without political favorites…and only about the striving for perfection and the rare moments when it appears. 

The use of my song for any political reasons is not acceptable.  And as the sole owner of all rights to my song, I will make sure this is so.
