WASTELAND
I adore a happy story. A supermarket aisle is an apt place for Karina Ramage to give an audition to an impromptu request to strum and sing her song. The backdrop of biscuits, behind her, should have had them straining in their wrappings as her lyrics exposed what we are doing to the oceans.
Her lyrics aren't available to download yet, but ‘feed the turtles with bin bags’ hits the listener hard - well me anyway.
I think writing is about protest and lyrics enable messages, protest anthems and rallying songs to go to a much wider audience than tweets, FB posts and blogs.
There has to be a first for everything and it is my first blog on a young singer-songwriter and her caring lyrics on our damaged world.
Awareness is coming about and who knows the world could become a better place and optimism should rule. That's okay for me.
