Six Degrees of Inspiration

Connected By Inspiration

The Godfather of Soul and the “Hardest working man in showbiz”, died on Christmas… An influential musical artist who’s hits spanned, not years, but decades. From the 60’s on up, he was influencing music and musicians all over. From hip hop, soul, jazz, blues, funk, rock and roll… He was inevitably inducted […]

This has been one of my favorite songs for a long while now, I still don’t exactly know what it’s all about, but it’s apparent that it’s about helping someone… that maybe headed towards death (how to save a life)…
I read that the song was written about a Father trying to save his son from […]

Corinne Bailey Rae

Not just another English singer, Corinne is a fresh new face to the international music scene. The voice is so relaxing and the songs are some of this years best. If I had to describe her voice, I would say it’s a wonderful mix of soft, soulful, childlike, and serene tones. The […]

Sometimes, we all just want to go home. In this life that we lead, we have often times been in situations that prevent us from being with our family, wife, husband, daughter, son, father, and mother. At this point in my life, I’m on the other side of the globe, thousands of miles […]

Thats why Ill always be around,
You are the apple of my eye,
Forever youll stay in […]

I never understood why this song never got as much air time as it should have. I’m totally in love with this song. For those who don’t know much about this song, it was released as an add-on to the Beatles Anthology. This was never released before, so in all essence, it […]

Losing your child is one of the most heart wrenching experiences that a parent could ever go through. It’s something just isn’t in the natural flow of the life cycle as we know it…
Eric Clapton lost his son, and as a result, wrote one of the most beautiful song ever written. Tears in […]

We Are The World

Fighting the good fight, is not just a battle, but a long war. The song “We are the World” was one of the most successful collaborations in music. The best artists of the day came together for a continent that needed help..
Sadly, Africa is still in the grips of corruption, death, and murder…
We […]
