I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...because Mario is my favorite artist and has been for years now. His lyrics are so truthful. The situations he sings about are situations that almost everyone go through at one point and time in their life. I have just fallen in love with all of his music. Another huge reason I'm such a fan is that when Turning Point was released. I had fell in love with the song "Let Me Love You" and I used to sing it in class all the time. My good friend that sat right beside knew how much I loved Mario and his music that the next day he gave me the his cd, because I hadn't gotten it yet. Then a couple of days later he was killed and my life changed drastically that day. That was a huge Turning Point in my life. The only thing I had left of him was this cd and now I treasure it with my life and I miss him so much. So whenever I am feeling down I just turn on Mario and start to feel better. So I'm such a fan, because Mario and his music have been there for me when I was in a time of need. And I so grateful for that!! --Porchia
