This week I was completely changed by music. I have a friend named Garrent who showed me this guy named Baz Luhrmann. He is a director, a spoken word artist, a cinematograper, and a family man. Sound's like a politician! Well, he has a single song out, which is a speech set to music called Sunscreen. It is all about how young people don't recognize all of the possibilities that lay before them. He talks about how we should appreciate what is in our lives and use our bodies to the largest of their potential. I was completely moved by this speech. I have never heard of spoken word music before, but this single song has really gotten me interested in this new genre. If you're looking for a little youth-related enlightenment, this is a great song to listen to. It's full of wisdom. I'm sure older listeners will find that what is said is true and will be able to add to this amazing man that is Baz Luhrmann.
