It has really been ages since I’ve been inspired to write any new, innovative tunes or lyrics. While it isn’t difficult to write a melody or pen lyrics, I’ve had problems writing something with a distinct sound, different from anything I had written before. Without the inspiration for anything different, I stopped writing.
Then something changed 2 weeks back when I was in Las Vegas. For some reason, new tunes after new tunes kept hitting me as I was walking down The Strip. Some I remember, most were unfortunately lost (That’s what happens when I can’t pen or record tunes down immediately).
If we believe that the Internet can survive a nuclear disaster, then this is probably the best platform to store the lyrics for songs that I have written. Many years back, I lost a number of songs when I changed computers and it wasn’t easy to re-write the lyrics for portions I had forgotten.
More importantly, with the trip, I realised that I am able once again to write new stuff. The songs in this blog are written for a little show I want to do one day.
