Recently, NPR proffered a bit of a challenge: “If you could tell your life story — chronologically, up to now — in six songs, what would they be?”
I was intrigued and so, I gave it a shot. This isn’t necessarily a story in the traditional sense but it takes a LOT of thought and creativity to represent your life in six measly songs!
I wouldn’t say that mine are necessarily lyrically literal but these songs capture the essence of my life up to now …
Southern Girl – Frankie Beverly
Got To Give It Up/Party – Marvin Gaye
I will Survive – Gloria Gaynor
Brown Skin – India Arie
A Change Is Gonna Come – Sam Cooke
Crave – Gareth Asher
I would love to hear yours!
