One of the members on MusicBuilder.Org posted the question: SO WHY DO YOU MAKE MUSIC ANYWAY?
I replied:
- I make music because I need people to want to listen to my rantings...
- I make music because my soul pines for something I can feel....
- I make music because my life didn’t lead me to the pulpit....
- I make music because I can tell you everything without having to give you a clue into what I’m really talking about....
- I make music because music is the seed born inside me from before I was a seed born by my mother....
- I make music because I mean it.....
- I make music because people like to hear the music I make (Unless they all like lying to me and wasting their money as I’ve found that some do).....
- I make music because I am music....
- I make music to calm the tormented seas of my restless soul and to espouse my mind’s inner eye without revealing the truth....
- I make music because after the right song, nothing more needs to be said.
I reiterate, I am music, so I need say nothing more.The real question is, why do you make music?
Fellow music makers: it’s on you....
