Testimony of "How God Births A Songwriter" 5/7/09
The Heart of North Carolina is home to Diane Guy Barnes, an American songwriter. This songwriting comes as quite the surprise as God leads her down unlikely paths, never having aspired to be one. She is amazed at God for doing this!
Your musical influences
Daddy had his music playing. It was quite the collection of country, western and bluegrass records. As I grew older I began to suspect this music coursed through my veins as well. Even so, I'm flexible. Most songs I write could be bent into a variety of genres. But to answer the question- first, there's God.
Patsy Cline, Aretha Franklin, Elvis, Dolly, Loretta, Bonnie Raitt, Norah Jones, The Judds, Eagles, Marty Robins, John Prine to name a few.
What equipment do you use?
Cakewalk Music Creator 3, ATR20 mic.
Anything else?
I give God credit and glory for everything. Without Him, I am soooo lost and undone.

Still listening baby, to You!!!!
Hi Diane, I was running errands and put a new cd (I'm old) in and LIKE A BIRD played. It took me one measure to recall you! Still a great song. I did lose track of another S/C favorite. The song was Jesus in chains.
I hope you are doing well, Barry
As a track tester for a Major studio I hear a lot of music.
Your song has really touched my heart as one I will not soon forget.
Thanks for the download. 5 stars 4 U Rock!
"Like a Bird" is a great song. I pray all is going well for you today.
wow!
