There seems to be a music posting thing going around the blog-o-sphere recently, and since I have absolutely nothing better to post while I'm waiting for rejections responses on the requested material I have out, I thought I'd post some of the music that puts me in the mood of Story for a Shipwright. Not in any paritcular order...
This fits The Shipwreck stories very well, and I love the nautical theme of the video.
Lyrics and feel are just right with this one:
Again, it's both the lyrics and music. Wish I could re-name it Sophie's (or Marlena's) Lullaby. and the fact that the main female character, Marlena, looks a lot like Norah Jones doesn't hurt...
Okay, my story has no lighthouse, but this is very nautical and wonderful storytelling. Everytime I listen to it I get choked up...
I like this better than Cyndie Lauper's version. The music and lyrics fit perfect...
This is the perfect song for the end of the novel.
...and of course, sounds of the ocean...
It's more the feel of this song that really fits...
In a weird and quirky way, this works, especially as an introduction to Marlena. Try not to be distracted by the video, which definitely does not fit!
...and of course, sounds of the ocean...
