The Songs
Sharing a song is like sharing a secret
It often starts with an idea. Something I read. Something I think. Sometimes I forget about it. Other times, the thought keeps turning over in my head. Now and then I write the idea down. Sometimes it becomes a lyric. Sometimes, in fact, it turns out well too. If I may say so myself. The lyrics come first. Before the melody. And the chords. Then the music comes together into a song. What they ultimately mean to me — the songs — may be something entirely different from what they will mean to you. If I'm lucky, it strikes a nerve. Creates a feeling.
