WRITER'S BLOCK BLUES

from Peter J Slack Musical BLOG · host Peter J Slack

Greetings on a sunny Sunday to all kind people, Writer's Block Blues: Song Track I woke up Saturday with strange harmonies rolling through my brain and had to act on them before they vanished into the mist as these musical ideas will if they are not performed shortly after invading my space. I was in a blue mood and thus wrangled these concepts into a blue song about having writer's block and the possibility of not being able to write songs when one has the blues. This song is in the style of Steely Dan...WARNING! It is very easy listening and has put me to sleep a couple of times while I was listening and uploading today...do not operate heavy machinery while listening :-) .. WRITER'S BLOCK BLUES: Lyrics When the voices talk inside my head in music they do speak. Whispering songs made of perfect notes, sometimes a dream that can be played. Is it in time? Should the words rhyme? Am I just out of my head? Will it ever please my lover's ear? Is it in style? Will it walk a mile? Will they only tear the song apart? Will it only break my lover's heart? The dream expands to fill an empty space, music permeates the air. One foot ahead is further from that place of silence, darkness and despair. Is it in time? Should the words rhyme? Am I just out of my head? Will it ever please my lover's ear? Is it in style? Will it walk a mile? Will they only tear the song apart? Will it only break my lover's heart? Is it in style? Will it walk a mile? Will they only tear the song apart? Will it only break my lover's heart? Best regards and have a great week PJ WORDS & MUSIC ©2004 Peter J. Slack, SOCAN
