Last month the word cardigan was one of the prompts to inspire you to write a poem. It appeared in a song by a famous singer songwriter. I remembered The Cardigans, fronted by the lovely Nina Persson and seeing the Cardigans back in the day when they were starting out. They were a huge hit in Japan, before Europe and America picked up on their music.
So I took a bunch of their song titles and wrote a poem. It started with the a song I could remember first and you can read that poem and some of the comments here on my publication.
I would not know if this is a copyright issue as the lines are all quotes from titles. We all like our music and we have different tastes in music. I have read that song titles are not copyrighted.
Let’s dedicate the month of May to write poems about favourite bands by using song titles only. My understanding is we can use song titles, don’t change them in anyway and don’t talk badly about the band/song if you wish to stay out of trouble.
Each day in May will have a letter assigned. So, in alphabetical order. Today it’s a band or singer starting with N.
Whether a fan or not, has to be done... respect to all the fans.
