Irena Makarchuk With Bermuda Road Appears Certain To Replace Anthony Melillo At The Top Of The Alive With Clive Top 20 Chart Soon

For several weeks now, it has seemed that Anthony Melillo would remain at the top of The Alive with Clive Top 20 Chart forever.  From the inception of The Alive with Clive Top 20, he built up a formidable lead that made him appear to be untouchable.  But now, it looks like he will soon be nudged out of the # 1 spot on the Chart by his nearest competitor, Irena Makarchuk with Bermuda Road, who has been climbing up the Chart over the past few weeks at a blistering pace.

Until only a few short weeks ago, Irena was languishing way back in the pack, but over the past five days she quietly moved past John Taglieri to claim second place and has obtained six times more votes than Anthony Melillo.

"Irena is demonstrating the phenomenal results you can achieve with a burning desire, focused action and a supportive team," observes Clive Swersky, host and producer of the popular and inspiring TV Show, Alive with Clive -- Turning Your Passion Into Profit! and creator of The Alive with Clive Top 20.

A song from each musician who is in The Alive with Clive Top 20 when voting ends will be included on a compilation CD to be sold to raise millions of dollars for people suffering from AIDS in South Africa.

Irena is also the founder of Harmony4Kidz, a not-for-profit organization established to provide aid for homeless children.  

The second annual Artists Who Care benefit concert organized by Irena and Harmony4Kidz is taking place on Sunday, September 21, 2008, at the Highline Ballroom, 431 West 16th Street, between 9th and 10th Avenues.  

It is being hosted by Power 105.1’s DJ Whutevva and will feature performances by international stars including Ray J, Irena with Bermuda Road, Badi, Bellringer, Raye 6 and Shakti.  

Ticket sales from the show will go towards helping homeless children find immediate shelter.  Tickets can be purchased at www.highlineballroom.com.  Donations will be accepted at the merchandising booth.  For more information about Harmony4Kidz, visit www.harmony4kidz.org.
