01b. Music Keynotes: Gran Torino - Jamie Cullum

Had to add this next youtube link of Jamie performing his song Gran Torino that he did for the Clint Eastwood Film. This is powerful collaborative stuff from Jamie and Clint who share credits on the song.
The song video features clips from the movie intertwined. I hope, like it does for me, It will slow your heartrate and force you to feel each word as it’s sung.
It’s so raw and pure I can taste it.
So gutwrenchingly good.

Shakespeare I'm not, but the borrowing, the appreciation, the effort is true.

Shakespeare I'm not, but the borrowing, the appreciation, the effort is true. And that's why my Blog title is a 'play on' words altering the opening line of Shakespeare's Twelfth Night from "if music be the food of love" to "life" because it seemed to reflect me and my aspirations of writing, much better.



'Love', as a word, comes with expectations doesn't it? It seems grandiose and definitive. The word 'Life' though feels comfortable, more palatable and true. That's what I really hope to accomplish with my blog. Write what I feel, write for me, write about my life. So with that said, I hope you find something to 'chew on' from reading my blog. Expect tired clichés, eclectic music references, spelling mistakes, run-on sentences and poor grammar, because well, that’s just me.


Cheers!
