You can download it from my MySpace page: http://profile.myspace.com/jeffhorwich Want to learn more? Here's the original story I did about him for Minnesota Public Radio: http://news.minnesota.publicradio.org/features/200111/19_horwichj_upandaway-m/ And here's a short film about him (which I had nothing to do with, though it starts with a clip from the MPR story): http://www.unaimless.com/superman.htm Please note: The song (and the MPR piece) date from very early in Superman's existence. I'm as amazed as anyone that he's still out there. Has he changed? On that, I have no further comment.
