Thread Name: What songs do you 'see'?
Subject: RE: What songs do you 'see'?
Like a lot of people who have posted on here, I can't help but have the movie of a song's events going on in my mind's eye, whether I am listening to it or singing it. I wouldn't know how to stop that happening...not that I would want to !

Something I really don't enjoy is reading novels which go into great detailed descriptions. I much prefer to do that myself as I read. That is probably why I much prefer songs and poems, because when they are descriptive they are generally economical and to the point. My favourite reading matter is playscripts - all the way through, I am staging them in my mind's eye.

One of my favourites for visualizing is Long Lankin (I can scare myself silly even singing it in my head !)
