Want to get in touch with your inner child to stir up the creative juices a bit? Try listening to Wonderground Radio on Minnesota Public Radio. Billed as "non-commercial radio for kids to listen to with their grown-ups," there's everything from classics--Louis Armstrong's "A Kiss to Build a Dream On," Pete Seeger's "On Top of Old Smoky," Nancy Sinatra's "These Boots are Made for Walking," and Sly & the Family Stone, "Everyday People"--to newer hits such as Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah," Michael Franti & Spearhead's "Say Hey (I Love You)," Sufjan Stevens' "The Friendly Beasts," and OK Go's "White Knuckles."
When I write, I like either silence or instrumental music, no lyrics. But for some writing-related tasks--sorting, cleaning up desk clutter, filing--it's great to have music with good energy, music that jogs memories, loosens you up, takes you places. Check this out, and see what you think.
