Performance - If by Rudyard Kipling

Thoughts on the value in seeing beyond the simple (or complex) difference between two points of focus. 

Here's my experience first "hearing" this song, as well as a short breakdown of it.

A return to what this podcast was originally intended to be...a space for creating and sharing and never minding who is listening. A reading of "If" by Rudyard Kipling with supporting music as composed and read by Dean.

In this first installment of the “Anatomy of a Song” series here on Never Mind Who Listens, Dean explores the ins and outs of “Creep” by Radiohead.    http://patreon.com/nmwl

A contemplation on the connection humans have with music across time...and the potential need to re-evaluate the current connection with music. 

Dean spends time with friends and colleagues at the Southeastern Region American Music Therapy Association conference discussing perspectives and personal practices to further connect with music. Special thanks to Maria Nichta, Hannah Coleman, Danae Merrick, Kaitlin Wightman-Ausman, Rosemary Takacs, Madison Jenkins, and Alison Hughey for the great conversations and for allowing me to share your stories on this platform. 

Though the title of this episode might suggest such, this episode actually contains no explicit content. It does however contain thoughts on explicit content as an outlet for adolescence and perspectives on the nature of explicit content. From the Parents Music Resource Center to Phil Donahue, Dean explores the possible benefits of explicit content.

This is the first episode of Never Mind Who Listens hosted by music therapist, Dean Quick. It is a brief introduction as to why this podcast is happening and a short exploration of the theme "Relationship in Music".
