I have this friend, he's a jazz musician, a trumpet player. I go to see him play now and then and he plays this song I love, an old Chep Baker tune. And every time he blows the same notes but every time it sounds different. So I had drinks with him one night, when I used to drink, and I tried to tell him how he made me feel, how the notes made me feel, how the music made me feel.. And my friend just sat there shaking his head and he said, "Joan, you can't talk about music. Talking about music is like dancing about architecture". And I said, "Well fine, if you're gonna get all philosophical on me it's just a pointless as talking about a lot of things. Love for instance". And my friend laughed and he said, "Definitely. Most definitely. Talking about love is like dancing about architecture". Well I don't know. Maybe he's right.. but it's sure not gonna stop me from trying..- Playing By Heart
