Music Loves Lyrics
http://musicloveslyrics.wordpress.com/
music loves lyrics is a blog written by a sister & brother who love music.
For many people music is an inspiration, an art, a friend, a way of life. But beyond music lies the heart of the song, which are the lyrics. An instrumental song has a completely different meaning than it has with lyrics. There’s no connection without something to say. Some people never take the time to listen to the words in a song. Some people want to know the story behind a song. This blog is about music, lyrics, and its connection to life, love, and everything else in the world.
