Music Video

This is a really kewl song and dance my friend was in it. I so wish I could of gone :( Oh well maybe next year

Theses couple of blog posts are going to be a little different. I’m right now on the road heading to Pennsylvania. It’s a 20 hr car ride with my family. I have had a lot of time on my hands to think and figure out what music means to me personally. So far I’ve gone through Texas, Arkansas, Tennessee, Kentucky, and now I’m in Ohio with several hours before I reach my destination. Each of theses States are music they describe something important to us to see and think about. You might think I’m crazy but each state is unique in it’s own way. You have history’s famous wars, some are hilly, some are flat, and some you just see and experience God’s awesome creation. And that is how music is, not every song says they same thing or has the same meaning but if we open up our eyes and look around we can see the beauty before us.
Texas is my home state it means a lot to me cause it’s where I live, where my family and friends are, where I have had ups and downs in my life. It’s where I call home and will always be part of my life. . When your wanting to express yourself through music, or wanting to describe a situation, or feeling, nature, life, friends, you tend to want to look around you and see how to write what your feeling.
In Texas we have big cities, trees, long country drives to the east, down south you can see some really awesome hills and very pretty areas of nature. If you head west you go into semi deserts and where cow boys and rodeos are part of everyday life. When you look in the past of Texas history you see wars fought, Indians who dwelt in tepees, farms plus lot more. Now a days you the future and where we have gone to get to where we are now. So when you want to write a song that describes something look around and see what has happened before and where you are now. For Example here is a sample of Texas.

This is my home land of the brave and strong,
When you look behind you see the past
That has brought us to this new future,

Okay so you think of words that describe something and that’s how song writers express themselves they say how they feel or that their thinking. That’s how the song becomes more personal and we can relate better to them.
I personal love Tennessee it’s known for being the music capital but it’s nature is beyond beautiful. The trees turning an autumn color and hills with houses built on top of them is so cool. Fall there is beautiful. When I was going through Tennessee it brought me memories casue I’ve been there 3 times before and had a really cool time. So when you are trying to write a song look around you and see what’s before you sometimes you see people and how they are trying to express how they feel.
Even nature is trying to tell us something. Every State I’ve been through is unique it’s own way and that’s how it should be for us. We are all different and special and some way so lets express who we are instead of trying to be that person were not. I’m on the road I’ll keep posting as I can. Have a Blessed day :)
