Just a middle-aged guy who's been carrying song ideas around in his head for years and has decided to learn the craft and hopefully produce something decent eventually

Lyrics
The Winds of Time © 2009 Greg Swartzentruber/Mark Kaufman They cried the music's dead it's such a mortal sin All because Bob Dylan plugged his guitar in Well the music still is playin' on in other hearts and souls Cuz it's always into filling empty holes As long as folks keep singing the music's gonna change And as we all grow older we will miss those early days Cuz the sound that moved us won't move the next in line And the music keeps on blowin' in the winds of time They cut Elvis in half said his gyratin' will not fly Said the Beatles sinned for praising getting high It doesn't matter how old you are you'll probably recall Some old folks saying this ain't music at all And it will be the death of us, kids these days are fools I can't believe they let this noise play in public schools Cuz the sounds that moved us don't move the next in line And the music keeps on blowin' in the winds of time Every generation finds its own inner beat And it's the older music that blows the new stuff down the street Madonna's teaching all the girls to act like prostitutes And all these rappers sing about the bling and getting guns to shoot No one's buying music cuz they download it for free And if Rock and Roll has lost its soul why should it even be But I look forward to what lies up ahead Cuz no matter how they moan music's never dead I wonder what the sound will be that moves the next in line Cuz the music keeps on blowin' in the winds of time

Brilliant. Loved it. There are gems out there on SC and this is one of them. I've created a new station just so I can add this song, and visit it again.
