Re: 3rd Open Mic
Hi Pam,
sometimes sophistication can rob a lyric of its emotional power. I admire your efforts. Song writing is something that's usually hard for me. This week though the words have been flowing.
As I mentioned a while back I was supposed to go to Greece this week for a conference. Well, I must have lost my passport, because I've searched up and down my place for a week now and it's just gone. Vanished. I've had to stay home and sulk. But while sulking I wound up writing two songs. My wife says that that makes the missed conference worth it.
Anyway, what I really want to say Pam is that I really admire people who write songs and put them out there even when they're feeling a bit insecure about them. It's something I haven't done myself yet in 35 years of playing music, though I expect to be doing it soon. It's a brave thing to do and I'd be willing to bet that a lot of the great songs we have in this world were born of such insecurity. So keep it up and well done!
Tim
