Music Saved Me – Instrumental Medley

MUSIC SAVED ME INSTRUMENTAL MEDLEY

Let these instrumentals take you on a musical journey of healing with their touching melodies. I went from sadness to joy when I rediscovered the music that I loved. Initially, I worked with an arranger to create these lush arrangements. Later on, I gravitated more to acoustic guitar, piano and piano, and solo piano.

I am sharing the individual instrumental song tracks, as well as a link to a page with lyrics, performances and other recordings for each song. (Simply click on the song image).

“Never Gone Away” has was originally written to say goodbye to a dear friend, but later on it helped me express feelings of anticipatory grief.

NEVER GONE AWAY

“Crystal Oceans” was a love song written long ago, but it revives the moment I allowed music back into my heart after 30 years.

CRYSTAL OCEANS

“So Real” describes the unreality of waking up to face unbearable grief.

SO REAL

“How We Don’t Care” was a dynamic that tore apart a close friendship and later on my marriage. I have learned a great deal since then.

 

“Clear” describes my enthusiasm for seeing the clarity I needed to “turn my life around.” It truly is never too late.

CLEAR

“Another You” honors my irreplaceable friend, Cheryl. I wish that very person has someone in their life they feel this way about.

ANOTHER YOU

“Only Tears” described the moment I realized everything in my life was about to change after I was married.

 

“Song of Joy” was a song that I sang under the wedding canopy as I was married.

SONG OF JOY

“Saying Goodbye” was originally a break-up song, but later on it felt so much more relatable to saying goodbye to my young son when he died in 1992.

SAYING GOODBYE

“Music Saved Me” is such a spiritual song for me. My life would have been very different if I hadn’t opened my heart to embrace the music I loved as a young girl.
