Music & Lyrics

Thinking of styles and different genres of music.

I am not the fussiest when it comes to what I like... perhaps I have a clearer idea of what I don't like...

It's pretty amazing playing with musicians of similar mind. I don't think it depends as much on music taste as ability to listen to each other and play as one unit. It requires that certain bond perhaps? The music seems to flow and just work for some unexplained reason.

I had this feeling the other night when I had the privilege of playing with a few other musicians. I haven't played with them in recent times but it's like we picked up where we left off. One mind, one direction. Almost like we could all read each other's minds and talk without words.

Inadequate words to describe the feeling.

Why does it feel so right?
Even when this is a rare night
That our music fuses to create
A sound so elaborate.

That my words cannot describe it
Unlike those that a poet's writ,
Like a river running it's natural course
Seeking the easiest run according to earthly force.

The notes ring clearly through the din
Piercing the thickest barricade
Swelling and permeating the surroundin'
Holding it's own til the fade.

I find it really hard to write lyrics. Proper lyrics that aren't corny and don't rhyme.
