Music Makes Me Lose Control

My name is Nick and I am a music addict. Before I could speak, I heard music (I think--it's been a while since I've been in utero), and before I could walk, I danced. If you cut open my veins, I will bleed music--and blood too. It will be messy, but tuneful. Essentially music is the genesis of who I am. I also admire the band Genesis, or maybe more so, Phil Collins. I digress. Thanks in every part to my parents and my grandparents, I grew up with musical tastes that range from Glenn Miller to the Beatles to Madonna and beyond-a! (a little rhyme).

Most people have Jesus. MUSIC is my personal Jesus (so is Bette Midler). Music is my spirituality, my heart, and my soul. Not a day goes by where I don't sing at least one verse of a song--any song within the jukebox of my mind, and for anyone who knows me and my family, we never leave a musical reference unsung.

So, welcome to my musical world, where I introduce you to the music that defined--and continues to define--who I am and who I was.
