This was along the lines of what we were thinking. Also, I appreciate your pointing out to me the parlance/the difference between Arab and Muslim I was using them interchangeably & incorrectly here as you point out.

Letters Never Sent is a really beautiful song I hope we don't have to go live with Salman Rushdie in order to listen/produce it ;p. We were worried that some fanatical sects might not get it at all if the song went on to get heavy exposure and/or rotation on web radio. Thanks for your input very much here. We put the tune up on Mixposure Radio in the #4 playlist spot as more of a litmus test and public opinion/research on this issue. We are looking for a translation/translator too so hopefully this will help us find one as well.
