A Universal Language

Music is a universal language just as English is. Unfortunately, not everyone is fluent in it. That's when lyricists come in and put words to the songs... but even then some people still don't understand the poetry of the words with the music... that's where I come in.

I  am fluent in 2 languages: English and music.

I plan on making a living using those 2 languages. I dream of writing about music; I want to critique performances, review albums, and interview artists.

Music and lyrics are what I'm passionate about. I know what artists want to portray, but if I don't, I wish to ask them personally.

I don't like symbolism... at least not the kind that involves counting up the number of words and letters and sentences and that type of thing. My favorite lyrics are the ones that are plainly honest and emotional and meaningful.

The best lyricists are the ones that have their hearts on their sleeves and don't care to tell the world what they're feeling.

Let's face it... most songs are about love or something related to it. 

"You'd think that people would've had enough of silly love songs... But I look around me and I see it isn't so... Some people wanna fill the world with silly love songs... Well what's wrong with that? I'd like to know, 'cuz here I go again..."

As cliche as love songs are, what else, really, do lyricists have to write about?

Just like journalists, lyricists have to write about things that are generic enough that people will sing along because it applies to them.

Love is something that literally applies to everyone. Love is universal, just as music is, so put the 2 together and you have a worldwide theme.

LOVE + MUSIC = WORLD PEACE

... just a thought... haha
