Now you can hear what I hear!!
I have shared my Thoughts on just about everything with you so why not Music. Music have always been a big part of my life, it has brought me through some dark Days of Depression and Dismay. When I was a Teenager growing up in the middle of the Social Chaos of the seventies music came to my rescue with Songs like my Emotional Rescue( Rolling Stones) Crosby Stills and Nash cries for Social change was like a Lifesaver for a Drowning Man in the raging Riptide of Racial Discord. Pink Floyd efforts to address the Financial inequality with the song Money was a Breath of fresh Air when the Financial Markets were running wild, leading up to the Crash that awaited in the eighties. The Ballads of Richey Haven and Marvin Gaye soothes the Savage Breasts. The Music of the Dell’s Stay in my Corner was an Epic Ballad. The Delfonics, the OJs, the Dramatics spread thoughts of Love. Music have always been one of my secret places where I go to escape from the World, a place that I could find reasoning from the Thoughts of an Artist Struggle with his Emotional Hurricanes.
Those Thoughts would put Tranquility in the Rough Waters of mine, as they say Misery loves Company, and like Minds think alike. Music puts me in a Trance and takes me to Places in my Mind where I would never have gone, being all wound up with Day to Day Living. 🎶
Sister Sledge puts it Best.
We’re lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin’ back
We’re lost in music
We’re lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine to five
We’re lost in music
Have you ever seen some people lose everything
First to go is their mind
Responsibility to me is a tragedy
I’ll get a job some other time, uh-huh
I want to join a band and play in front of crazy fans
Yes, I call that temptation
Give me the melody that’s all that I ever need
The music is my salvation
We’re lost in music
Caught in a trap
No turnin’ back
We’re lost in music
We’re lost in music
Feel so alive
I quit my nine to five
We’re lost in music
Mmm, hmm, in the spotlight the band plays so very tight
Each and every night, uh-huh
It’s not vanity to me, it’s my sanity
I could never survive
Some people ask me “What are you gonna be?
Why don’t you go get a job?” uh-uh
All that I could say “I won’t give up my music”
Not me, not now, no way, no how, oh
We’re lost in music
Caught in a trap (Caught up in our music)
No turnin’ back (Ooh, ooh, ooh)
We’re lost in music
We’re lost in music (Don’t take our away our music)
Feel so alive (Feel)
I quit (I quit) my nine to five (Yeah)
We’re lost in music
We’re lost in music (Melody is good to me)
Caught in a trap (I’m caught up in it)
No turnin’ back (No, no, no)
We’re lost in music (Ooh, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo, doo)
We’re lost in music (Da la la la la, da da da la la)
Feel so alive
