You may have noticed I’ve been posting lots of videos/music links in the past few days. Mostly, I just don’t know what to say and these videos and songs have been in my mind lately. Also writing a real post about something substantial is turning into a daunting task because I associate it with taking a long time. And it does– take a long time, to write something substantial, and I give myself all these excuses like how I have other things to write for my creative writing classes (which is true). But I should probably stop thinking that.
Anyway, I need to get back into songwriting for my lyrics class and I’ve been wanting to write an older-type classic-sounding song, like this one, “You Made Me Love You”, originally sung by Judy Garland. This is taken from the gay-themed film Private Romeo, which is a re-telling of Romeo and Juliet in an all-boys cadet school. I can see why people might not like the film, but I really do, and the ending with Matt Doyle singing this over a ukelele is really cool and lovely.
