Whenever I begin to ponder a subject, the majority of the time there is a song that pops into my head mirroring the subject, the current circumstances. In some way it is like having a continuous soundtrack to my life. The people I love, the situations all have a parallel song playing in the background.
For instance, Howard Jones "No One Ever Is To Blame" = Graduation 1986. Elvis' "Trilogy" will always be associated with just about any time I went out with Susan Harris because Elvis was a mainstay. "Comfortably Numb," before being given a redneck rendition courtesy of my good friend Neil Partyka, was associated with strange happenings while cruising around with Tracey May. Robin Mark's "Revival" brings joy to my soul because I got to rock out with a fantastic group of people. I truly believe that angels were singing and dancing with God Himself smiling as we played together.
The current soundtrack of my soul - I will title it "Transformations" - looks something like this:
1. Grace - U2
2. Hands of Time - Groove Armada
3. Come Home, Sweet Child - Samm
4. Thank You - Led Zeppelin
5. Yellow Ledbetter - Pearl Jam
6. Faithful to Me (Prelude & Reprise) - Jennifer Knapp
7. In a Little While - U2
8. Strawberry Swing - Coldplay
9. Trinity - Jennifer Knapp
