Music is everywhere. You may not think that headline is much of a revelation, but if you work with music in any way it should at least make you happy.

Why? Because somebody writes that music and somebody performs it and somebody records it and somebody mixes it and somebody masters it and somebody manufactures it in some way. Somebody else chooses it and somebody puts it on the radio or in an elevator or behind a commercial or in a movie or television show or uses it for music on hold.

Even talk radio has music, and as far as I know there are only two television shows that do not have a theme song, and I can only think of one of those. What is the other one?

Anyway, I'm encouraged by this "music is everywhere" idea. That means that some of the songs I have already helped write might just sneak into people's ears somehow, and it means that if I think about places where music is I might be able to contribute to songs specifically for those places.

And so can you. You can be one of those people I mentioned earlier and you can help bring music to life in some way. And when you do, you will be a somebody.
