Those of you that know me well know that music is everything to me. Music is how I express myself and tell the sad tale of my existence. Wow! am I depressing or what?
Music is my prayer, my thanks to God for all he has given, good or bad. You have to have a little bad to really appreciate the good right? (Rhetoric)
Since being in this funk I've written 3 songs. Why can't I do that when I'm not depressed? No, I have written songs when I'm feeling good but they all suck. So it is sooo true that you can make lemonade out of lemons. Like how many hearts is she gonna break. Not actually a song...yet. Can't dedicate that one either unless I move overseas somewhere. I posted a Facebook post about a bunch of us all getting together and work on the lyrics for a song. That would be fun or not. I'm killing time here till the wife goes to bed so I can crank up some music and play till my fingers bleed then I'll sit down and pound out a fresh song.
Ever notice how when you write a good song it just comes out. I heard Larry Gatlin say that when he gets a good one he really is only copying it down. God sends it and he writes it down. I concur whole heartedly. That's it for now but I'll be back to fill you in on something for sure.
