The singer-songwriter’s seventh studio album comes six months on from her festive release Only Santa Knows (#2 Dec. ’20) and features the single ‘Paralyzed’ (#36 Aug. ’20). At the same time as the album was released, Goodrem issued a book under the same title featuring the stories behind each song on Bridge Over Troubled Dreams. Delta Goodrem has previously scored #1s on the ARIA Albums Chart with Innocent Eyes (#1 Mar. ’03), Mistaken Identity (#1 Nov. ’04), Delta (#1 Oct. ’07) and Wings Of The Wild (#1 Jul. ’16).

AMNPLIFY – DB
My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
