inspiring music
Through the years, these songs impacted me in various way shaping who I am and therefore shaping my writing. Of course, these songs are not the only impact songs in my life, but are representative of all of the others.
In 1966-7, Simon and Garfunkel's The Sound of Silence and Parsley, Sage, Rosemary and Thyme were two of the first 'vinyl' albums I owned.
The school administration would have been happier if we had chosen, "When you walk through a Storm." I still receive peace when I hear this song.
Caring for the earth has always been important to the boomer generation. This song spoke of those concerns in very graphic details.
Don McLean's beautiful melodies and meaningful words, encourage me to search for my own. I would like write a line a memorable as 'the day the music died." He also introduced me to Vincent Van Gogh.
It is almost impossible for me to pick a favorite song from John Denver's album, "Poems, Prayers And Promises."
I shouldn't have to give any explanation for this choice. It lifted and encouraged me on my darkest days for over forty years.
One day, when I was in my early thirties, my Mom told me in a teary voice, "I heard on the radio today why you aren't married."
Valentines I've never known and invented lovers on the phone are still a part of my life, even though seventeen is long gone.
This always seems to be true...
I took Music Appreciation in the same semester as Creative Writing. I studied this Bach piece during the time my first story was due. One night, while listening to the piece, words came to me forming a short story. This work was the inspiration for my first story.
