...I was thinking about some of the characters within Gordon's songs. When they (the characters) became animated parts of the personal experience, and then also when they were poetic persona in verse.

... how those developments offered themselves as the character(s) as artistic expressions. Being created with an "natural intention" to stir and attach the emotions within the song. How beautiful indeed, Gordon created his works. (perhaps this is the wrong context, but...) as musical monologues, to us the audience, or sometimes as in a soliloquy of melodic verse to himself, (as an introspection).

What joy it is being a witness of his talent, and ability to deliver emotional candor, within the context of so many diversely arranged songs! Any personal thoughts on this?
Cheers,
