Un año completo de canciones
The noise one has to do to have a voice!
Prepare yourself for a real mix of songs primarily in English and Spanish but also in Swedish, and in that French which I do not speak and much less pronunciate well.
Prepárense para una verdadera mezcla de canciones principalmente en inglés y español pero también en sueco y en ese francés que no hablo ni mucho menos pronuncio.
Out-of-the-box-thinking is often requested, but is usually accepted only when coming from within a-small-mutual-admiration-network.
Here it is: Bartering plenty of Noise for a tiny bit of Voice
My weight? Yes there is about 20 pounds, 9 kilos, difference with when I began this blog. Luckily for me it has been in a downward direction.

My own favourite band
On drums, Keith Moon
On bass, Jack Bruce
On keyboards, Alan Price
On guitar, Jimmy Hendrix
On flute, Ian Anderson
On harmonica, Sonny Terry
On the harp, Juan Vicente Torrelba
On the violin, Boyd Tinsley
And with the mike Freddy Mercury
With arrangements by Juan Luis Guerra
Texts of Berni Taupin
All under the conduction of Benny Anderson
All of which does really not mean that much!

About Me
- Per Kurowski
- We are suffering from more and more answers than questions begging for them, and so I work on the latter. Read it all in my one and only book!"Voice and Noise" Pssst... so few have read this book so it is slowly turning into a collector item (I do not say a "cult"... yet) and so you might benefit from getting your very own copy now.
Copyrights!
One is always worried about issues such as copyrights, as one does not want to end up in a slammer at any age, even if voicing some of these beautiful songs could perhaps be worth it.
What I will try to do is to check out on the web if someone else has been doing a cover of the song or any other one by I believe is of the same composer and, if so, I will presume it is ok for me to do it too.
Of course if someone protests loudly, not only for a copyright infringement but also because the composer feels I am destroying or in any other sense behaving disrespectfully towards his baby, I will ipso facto take it down and replace it with another song.
