Clean-up Needed

The text currently on this page needs further work. It was most likely imported or reproduced from a website associated with the subject of the page - possibly through a process involving far-from-perfect machine translation, often with awkward results. It is awaiting the attention of an experienced M3P editor, which could be you. It may be slightly out of date, or may need other elements taken care of appropriately, including proofreading or copy-editing for grammar and style.

Since then, Mason has written lyrics in nearly every genre, for artists including House of Lords, Gigi Radices, Oscar Zia, Adhely Tisdale, Andrey Tikhonov, Electrovamp, Jonathan fagerlund, Jane Balder, Davis Redfield and Miss Coco Peru. His personal projects have included albums by Kim David Smith and Amelia’s Fault. and singles by Natalie Archangel and former Vanity 6 and Apollonia 6 member Brenda Bennett.

This is the first time that Charlie Mason submited a song for the Malta Eurovision Song Contest 2014 with Mans Ek for the young Maltese singer Daniel Testa Something in the Way which till now reach with the last 20 finalist songs.
