I love music.

I love music. I love listening to it. I love playing it. I love seeing it in action on a stage. I love the incredible flow of creativity that it stems from. I love the natural high it can bring when you’re in a stadium full of people belting out the words to a favorite song & you want to hug every person in the place afterwards.

My mom tells me I sang before I could actually talk. Not so sure I believe that, but I do know that I’ve always had my own radio station going on in my head. If I had the talent of the musicians I’ve always admired, I would definitely be doing that for a living! I can recall most of the stages of my life in musical phases… there was the classical music / opera phase…. the Harry Connick Jr phase…the Tori Amos phase…followed by the extended U2 phase. Let’s see, then there was the Natalie Merchant phase… the Ani DiFranco phase… and I’m sure I’m missing several inbetween. To tell you the truth, I don’t think I’ve outgrown any of them.

I received an iPod recently, and I have begun to listen to music from my dusty CD collection more & more. I stumbled across some tunes tonight that I recorded a few years back. I think they might be fun to post here…so I’ll upload a few to share & see what ya think. Lots o’ different stuff ranging from piano/voice covers to instrumental soundtrack pieces. Hope you like ‘em!
