My mom tells me I would sit at the piano and play and sing what sounded like real music. I remember making up harmony parts to the old hymns in the Methodist church we attended when I was but a wee lad. I especially liked the "amen" at the end of every song. I would doodle ad libs all over it. I love to make music, improvise in it, participate with it. Songs are in everything I see, everything I do. My mind is always writing the soundtrack of the BIG show- daily life. It's in me. Squeeze me and notes ooze out of every pore...hhmmm, gross. Anyway, music has been veddy veddy good to me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I like to think about the Sound Of Heaven. I like to think it can be heard when I sing and play my songs. I wonder if the little boy in the picture could hear the Sound in my music? Sometimes, when I'm really still, I can hear him singing a celestial hymn. It sounds like Heaven. And he still ends it with "amen".&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2394412524770446816-3393657632718953673?l=songdogblog.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://songdogblog.blogspot.com/feeds/3393657632718953673/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=2394412524770446816&amp;postID=3393657632718953673' title='10 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2394412524770446816/posts/default/3393657632718953673'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/2394412524770446816/posts/default/3393657632718953673'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://songdogblog.blogspot.com/2008/02/im-still-listening.html' title='I&apos;m Still Listening...'/><author><name>songdog</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/14535461091293348804</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://bp1.blogger.com/_UWQFqhJY548/R7IyiYtg5jI/AAAAAAAAAAY/fdZMT3GwzpI/s72-c/piano+kid.jpg' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>10</thr:total></entry></feed>
