    music,,the constant in my life, from listening
    to my mum singing scales when I was a toddler
    to the thrill of the Sound clash with like minded
    travellers.

    Great site.

    I too love music and what it does for me and I understand where you are coming from.

    My life is not where I thought it would or should be right now and I thank God every day for the gift of music! Right now music is my secondary saviour and blogging about music has been theraputic for my soul. It beats phsychiatry and anti-depressants! Don’t you think?

    Will be checking you out on the regular. Keep up the good work sir.

    sondan,

    William Congreve, The mourning bride, 1697:

    Musick has Charms to sooth a savage Breast,
    To soften Rocks, or bend a knotted Oak.
    I’ve read, that things inanimate have mov’d,
    And, as with living Souls, have been inform’d,
    By Magick Numbers and persuasive Sound.

    music is always there for us to bathe in it’s rays when all other lights go out..thanks for the comments..most appreciated
