 For the 18th year in a row, composer Louie Stevens — writer, producer, director and owner of FilmsYouFeel.com and Magic Music Productions LLC, was awarded an ASCAP Special Award for the 13 songs he wrote for the World's #1 peer-pressure, drug-education video: Don't Say Yes When You Really Mean No! and: Raging Hormones, the World's #1 Teen Pregnancy Prevention and Avoidance video.
 ASCAP is the American Society of Composers and Publishers, which Louie joined in 1987 as a writer member (both music and lyrics).
 Louie wrote the musical video Don't Say Yes When You Really Mean No! in th late 1980's while he was the Music Director with "Just Say No" International — remember Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" Clubs?
Since 1989, more than 10,000 schools, libraries and youth groups have purchased both "Don't Say Yes..." and "Raging Hormones" — both videos are still popular and continue to sell today! To date, an estimated 10 million schoolchildren worldwide have viewed them.
The ASCAP Special Awards Program is a financial award given to ASCAP members whose songs are not able to earn royalties because they are played in non-profit venues, like schools, libraries and youth groups.
