Thread Name: Poem into song? Help please
Subject: RE: Poem into song? Help please
You know THIS is what makes this site so damned fascinating. I love Amos's way with a song, and the lyrics for this are perfect for his style. I tried strumming this before I saw the video, but couldn't decipher how the tune would work with that G-F-E-Am. Now I hear it, it's just a brilliant touch, and something I never would have thought of. Beautiful poem. Beautifully rendered. I look forward to hearing this at Peace Cabin.
