ILLUSTRATION FRIDAY - Song

The Windows of My Soul ~ 5/11/03 ~ 7x9
Great topic! So many of my doodles are named after songs and lyrics. I generally have music (or a movie) on while I am doodling. I think I will post song doodles all next week. If you think you know the song or artist, hit me up in the comments!
C'mon...it'll be fun!

I play this game called "Who's that guy/girl" because I do all of my paintings and drawings listening to either movies or music I feel I have become a voice expert. I can tell anybody's voice and I have yet to be stumped, so I totally relate to your post! Can't wait to play your game! Love your illo!!! You have such a way with colours and shapes, I'm a fan!!!

Cool! The title of this doodle is the first clue. "The windows of my soul...". Any ideas? It’s the lyric of a song by a female indie singer.

What a colorful soul you have. I always start by listening to music but I usually goet so wrapped up in what I'm doing I forget to put on another CD when the first one is over.
love

Hmmm..haven't a clue, but I do like the drawing. You create such cool patterns with amazing colors. You know this is gonna drive me crazy...I might end up breaking all the windows to my soul! Will you tell us the answer at the end of the week if no one guesses it?

Teri said...

I don't know the name either but love this colorful hint!

And yet, with that clue I feel like I should know. Hmmmm, I'll be thinking about it all day.

At first I thought it might be Joan Baez but is it Ani de Franco?

This is one of my favorites this week!

valgalart is the winner!! it is Ani DiFranco!!

willing to fight
the windows of my soul
are made of one way glass
don't bother looking into my eyes
if there's something you want to know,
just ask
i got a dead bolt stroll
where i'm going is clear
i won't wait for you to wonder
i'll just tell you why i'm here

'cause i know the biggest crime
is just to throw up your hands
say
this has nothing to do with me
i just want to live as comfortably as i can
you got to look outside your eyes
you got to think outside your brain
you got to walk outside you life
to where the neighborhood changes

tell me who is your boogieman
that's who i will be
you don't have to like me for who i am
but we'll see what you're made of
by what you make of me
i think that it's absurd
that you think i
am the derelict daughter
i fight fire with words
words are hotter than flames
words are wetter than water

i got friends all over this country
i got friends in other countries too
i got friends i haven't met yet
i got friends i never knew
i got lovers whose eyes
i've only seen at a glance
i got strangers for great grandchildren
i got strangers for ancestors

i was a long time coming
i'll be a long time gone
you've got your whole life to do something
and that's not very long
so why don't you give me a call
when you're willing to fight
for what you think is real
for what you think is right

Thanks everyone for joining in the fun! Today's post should be much more obvious. :)

I'm a little bit of a musical dunce, I'm afraid, but always enjoy your work! I love your "Birthday Madness" and "TV Eye."

Let's see, I would guess that the "windows of my soul" clue refers to something about "eyes." Is the word "eyes" in the title of the song?

Regina said...

Very cool idea to have people try to guess your song!!! It was fun reading the comments and guesses. Love looking at your doodles too!
