I don't write songs, but I was a professional musician in the Boston area for many years. Now I kill people. Fictionally, of course. Am working on my 4th Frank Renzi mystery series.

One of my favorites is Blown Away by Carrie Underwood.<br /><br />I have often wondered if lyrics in older songs were written as poems then set to music.Kara Cerisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16484336785514235707noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-21203750609162492942013-01-25T13:12:40.073-05:002013-01-25T13:12:40.073-05:00Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and Paul...Bob Dylan, Bruce Springsteen, Neil Young, and Paul Simon are all marvelous story-tellers. But let's not forget Ira Gershwin's or Cole Porter's brilliant lyrics from generations ago. I'm like Jim in that I can write to instumental music, but lyrics interfere with the voices in my head. If I'm really stuck, I'll try to play music that matches the mood of the scene I think I'm trying to write.

Often the composer and the lyricist are different. It's almost as if the composer writes the setting and tone, the lyricist writes the POV and plot. <br /><br />I'm a rock fan, but my daughter loves country, and I have to admit that country songs tell stories, more so than rock. They're fun. E. B.

(If it's a language I don't know, it might as well be instrumental, as far as being able to write to it goes.)<br /><br />Many, many years ago (when I was a mere babe), I was a blues/jazz singer professionally (had trained for opera). Still love opera, blues, and jazz--and 60s /70s rock. The singing experience and training came in handy when learning to give public readings, though.<br /><br />I've been listening to and reading about writers who set up soundtracks for their WIP and always play them to get in the right imaginative place for that book. Am considering trying this. What do you all think on that topic?Linda Rodriguezhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11913741596693442469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-1051394810538182282013-01-25T10:44:18.623-05:002013-01-25T10:44:18.623-05:00Folk music commonly tells a good story--going back...Folk music commonly tells a good story--going back to Scottish border ballads like "Barbara Allen" that also have an American version. A lot of current pop singers are writing autobiographical music these days as well. Country music is full of interesting stories. Anyone of them could inspire a novel.Jacqueline Seewaldhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09177500620940251009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-28804179254483126472013-01-25T10:29:19.509-05:002013-01-25T10:29:19.509-05:00Warren, I love the music you're describing. I ... Warren, I love the music you're describing. I was a Harry Chapin fan, too, and still love folk music because of the stories told. I don't know if you know John McCutcheon, or not, but his songs always tell a story. I go to a lot of folk music concerts. We're lucky here in NE Ohio to have a strong following of folk music and a local radio station that features folk music every weekend evening. I don't usually write to music, but I can. I do listen to music in the evenings when I'm reading - usually classical or folk music. It's background for me, but when something particularly grabs me, I stop reading and listen. If it's classical, I may just conduct the music with my hands as the orchestra plays.Gloria Aldenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13581719606924364447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-993649290245605005.post-62933997855681729942013-01-25T10:14:51.200-05:002013-01-25T10:14:51.200-05:00I was a big fan of folk music in the 60's, esp...I was a big fan of folk music in the 60's, especially Peter, Paul, and Mary.
