Todd Harrison’s Favourite Quote of Mine As of March, 2004

From my trilogy liner notes.

Printing these lyrics may emphasize the words as the art to which one should pay attention. This should not be the case. The value of lyrics is evident. But what many composers really want to say is said through the melodies and harmonic structures. It is here that we enunciate conscious moods, subconscious thought, and attempt to communicate with known and unknown listeners, and also with the great beyond. Therefore, see these lyrics as half, or even less than half of the art I have created.
