the boy who heard music

along with edge and a few other of my peers, mr. pete townshend is one writer that i am quickly growing to love. lately it seems that i keep wishing that i could write like he does (both songs and blog entries). his writing style is quite different from his songwriting style, but you can see, and if you do listen to the music of the who, that there is a certain connection and similarity in his creation of the two separate media, which you really can't point out, because it's just... there.

there is something about the way he writes. i guess it's his years. years of writing lyrics have probably made writing about your life plainly as it is seem easier. somehow i still couldn't find all of the confidence that allowed me to write like i did some three years ago. where is the romeo moran that gave little damn to what others thought of his writing?

but the more important question is, do we want to see him again?
