The Music That Moves Us Submission Guidelines
Guidelines for the publication
Do you like music? Okay, unless you’re a psychopath, that was probably a silly question.
Do you love music? Tell us why! Specifically — or inspecifically — we want to hear about your favorite songs, albums, artists and what you love about them.
Not all the music that moves us moves us positively, so feel free to tell us about that album you hated! … Or that artist that never recaptured the glory of their earlier days.
Tell us about the different places that music takes you, and how different songs have grown to mean different things to you as you’ve grown older. Tell us about those lyrics you misunderstood, and why the ones you inserted in your head in their muddled wake were actually better. Tell us how surprised you were when you learned that Jimi Hendrix kissed “the sky” and not just “this guy” in Woodstock.
Were you floored when you learned that the famously psychedelic rock band, The Beatles, said “I can’t hide, I can’t hide, I can’t hide,” and not “I get high, I get high, I get high”? I know I was.
Tell us about the first songs you learned to play or sing along to, or the bands and artists that made you realize that you love music. We want stories…
