Seriously. I also like the way it sounds.<br /><br />Music: My drama is a bit of a musical. The Moxie Mamas (that's what I ended up naming my girl group) like songs from the 40's, 50's, and 60's. A couple they're doing - It's in his Kiss, and You don't own Me.<br /><br />Music is a prime source of inspiration for me, too. When I wrote some children's dramas (short stuff), I turned on my Mary Poppins CD - it's the full length version.Mary Aalgaardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08051735579638637382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608279570927513160.post-9918839196758019472010-04-24T12:22:33.934-07:002010-04-24T12:22:33.934-07:00I'll have to check out the Ray Charles love so...I'll have to check out the Ray Charles love song.

I love all your song/musician ...Awesome post, Roxy. I love all your song/musician choices...and I too am a MAJOR music addict. And my taste runs the gamut...I call myself a musical (and literary) omnivore. <br /><br />...and to MissV: I LOVE Depeche Mode!! (I'm a lifetime fan. They're still putting out great music..their new album is tremendous) I know and love that song (and Policy of Truth always works for me too).<br /><br />I also love Nick Cave (and loved him in the 80's when he played in a band that I doubt anyone would remember but me...but he was SO gorgeous back then)<br /><br />There are SO many beautiful, passionate LOVE songs out there, but a couple that I frequently write to:<br /><br /> In Your Eyes by Peter Gabriel<br /><br />Feels Like Rain by John Hiatt <br /><br />Destiny by Zero7<br /><br />An AWESOME song to write to when you have a parting of ways/divorce/pain scene...and before you think 'Yikes!', just give it a whirl:<br /> Snuff by Slipknot. <br />(it's ballad-ish, believe it or not, and the lead singer wrote it when going through his divorce. It's powerful and works to get me in that head space for writing a scene like that, every time.)<br /><br />I use both 'seriously' and 'for real'. <br /><br />Happy Birthday to your son!<br /><br />Have a wonderful weekend.<br />Love,<br />LolaLola Sharphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14394765053485642935noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8608279570927513160.post-1073691894076826412010-04-23T22:27:50.419-07:002010-04-23T22:27:50.419-07:00I must admit, I'm a tad-bit jealous of you ton...I must admit, I'm a tad-bit jealous of you tonight. Rarely does my husband read my blog. But tonight, after reading your post, he is addicted to blogspot. He loves blues, jazz, etc..., so you had him at Hello! BTW, I posted an award for you tonight:-) Hope your son had a fabulous b'day, and I'm saying prayers for you tonight.
