I love reading your thoughts on music.<br /><br />I know for me, there are some songs that take me back to a certain time in my life. I remember when I was getting a divorce way back in the early eighties, there were a couple of "love gone bad" songs that resonated with me. And to this day, if I hear them, they take me back to that period in my life. <br /><br />Thanks for stopping in.<br /><br />CCChristie Craighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13838947086349600665noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-55671690951380700512012-03-13T16:43:54.593-05:002012-03-13T16:43:54.593-05:00Hi Guys,

I usually have a soundtrack for each book and love Pandora because it introduces me to new artists.

I love to see if I could come up with a better song for that particular scene.

I've never related it to books though. I can't read if there are lyrics to music because I too want to sing along. Classical works the best for me then. The time I listen to music the most now is when I'm cooking. I enjoyed your videos and it would be interesting to compare it with your story.catsladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06375770995988927860noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-23662734356064111422012-03-13T11:46:42.679-05:002012-03-13T11:46:42.679-05:00Good mornin', Christie!

One of the things I love about the program Scrivener is you can build a soundtrack within the manuscript file (using MP3's) and it's all right there when I want it. I've been using that feature for a while now, and cannot imagine working without it!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11538690057861333760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-1510469019399287922012-03-13T10:19:39.275-05:002012-03-13T10:19:39.275-05:00the video and trailer were wonderful.

One that is special is Il Postino which transports me to another place.travelerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06191803578622949052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-29484673409585026302012-03-13T09:45:26.704-05:002012-03-13T09:45:26.704-05:00Loved the video and the trailer.

She is always telling when a music artist came out with a new song or if I don't know who sings a certain song all I have to do is ask her. She is my walking music library.Rebekah E.https://www.blogger.com/profile/09497567355215918953noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4542417548623715196.post-36553867290873126372012-03-13T05:30:12.269-05:002012-03-13T05:30:12.269-05:00Hi Christie, great videos.

I can remember having songs that reminded me of certain people and if I hear those songs today I will think of that person. I still listen to music in the car and sometimes when I am cleaning house. I can remember a time I didn't do anything without music playing.Quilt Ladyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05958381203753210051noreply@blogger.com
