After my long absence, it is only fitting that I return with an Eagles song. Where have I been? What have I been doing? That may all come out, in due time... or it may not. I am sitting here with about a million things I could write about but I do not think I am quite ready to broach most subjects yet.This blog is about music so it should be easy to just write about music and keep it simple. Th...
There's songs to fit every mood and occasion - I guess that's why music is so loved and worth the time. Being a writer must be so demanding personally, it has to be otherwise it won't work. I've had a song sang to me while dancing at a wedding for all to see - I was embarrassed and I felt bad for it. The guy I was dancing with was practically singing his heart out and the song contained such ly...
So, it's good to hear encouraging messages, right? I've been blown away by others openness on the topic of God. Not everyone's taste - agreed - but everyone resorts to that uncontrollable sob in their life time and acknowledge Him for that moment. We find unexplainable peace at those times, I know it.Let's be real - I love encouraging but easily get annoyed when being encouraged. Call me one of...
Sometimes a song just sits with you from the very first time you hear it. For one reason or another.....I do not own any Pink Cd's but I am thinking it is about time I should. Many of her songs have resonated within me and my respect for her grows. Her voice is unique and strong and she sings about personal and deep issues. I admire her gutsiness and the way she puts it all out there. Kudos to ...
Hey Everyone,I am so pleased to be guest blogging here at What Does This Song Mean To Me! Music has been a big part of my life my whole life. When I was little, I wanted to be a dj when I grew up. Many people have the gift of playing an instrument, or have a beautiful singing voice. I was blessed with the ability to hear how songs fit together in relationship to each other.Today I'd like to...

When people list the top ten greatest Rock bands, you see the usual appearances of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Led Zeppelin, The Who - on occasion you would see Guns N' Roses up on the list, if not, they're typically not too far behind.Talks among others debating on whether Guns N' Roses reuniting has been circling for some time now. With Axl Rose being the only original member left in the...
This is a guest post written by my friend Gemma who shares where her love of music comes from and what it means to her:Music is life and speaks life - A statement you would find engraved in my heart.I grew up a little bit on R'n'B - thanks to my three older brothers - but heavily on Christian/Gospel music. So let me briefly cover how religious music influenced my insight to music and what it me...
This is a guest post written by my friend Doson, who surely must be Coldplay's number one fan!"The more you listen the better it gets" that is called Coldplay. Now you won't agree with me cos' you hardly listen to Coldplay. The rhymes of the guitars & piano with a mixture of jazzy(ness), the loveliness & the beauty of their lyrics with a melody (you don't call it but I do) of Martin's voice & ...

I will be tied up with family for the next two weeks.Tied up with family? That does not sound right. I will be lucky enough to be spending time with my family and will enjoy it thoroughly. That is really what ...

Then there are the traditional children's Christmas songs like Frosty The Snowman or Rudolph The Red Nosed Reindeer. These are all a part of Christmas, but the funny Christmas songs below also hold a place in my memory and heart.Countdown to my most favorite funny Christmas songs from my childhood:4) ...
