Video killed the radio star...

Any such thing as too much these days. More is now the score that we're looking for. Why in the world would anybody ever need everything?

Prequel…

The prequel to my song Any Such Thing is of the same subject matter. Although the lyrics could be passed off as sarcasm Let It Burn was born from the contemplation of realistic and practical ways of creating positive change. Sometimes a step backwards is required in order to move forward…

Let It Burn

Spark and ignite

Let flicker and play

Flame burning bright

Before dying away

The ashes incite

And the embers decay

The fade of the light

Brings end to the day

Welcoming flame

Invite evolution

To bring about change

End the confusion

And set all ablaze

Erase the pollution

From out of the haze

Give birth to solution

From first a single flame

When left allowed to glow

Will build and feed and gain

To multiply and grow

Let it all burn down

Breathe new life on everything

Raze it to the ground

Yeah… let the fire burn

Let it all burn down

Yeah… let the fire burn

Kicking things off...

So I have decided to start by sharing the lyrics from the song that has gifted its name for this purpose. 

Any Such Thing is a song about the struggle between perceived abundance and persistent expansion…

Any Such Thing   

Any such thing as too much these days

More is now the score

That we’re looking for

Better believe it’s too much these days

Rich abundant flow

Nothing goes below

Why in the world would anybody ever need everything

Why in the world would anybody never leave anything

Look at yourself as if you’re too much these days

Deserving more than best

Expecting nothing less

And is there any such thing as too much these days

It’s what we’re looking for

And we all need to score

The game is long and it can’t go on

We've played it wrong and now there’s protest songs

About the way to win and how to change within

To make a different play and give ourselves away

Introduction

Hello and welcome to my blog.
Named after my recent song, I figured "Any Such Thing" will be a fitting description of the blog that will unfold. Here is where I will be posting ramblings, poems, lyrics, short stories, and plenty of random topics which I find of interest or capture my intrigue... hopefully some of it will capture yours too!
