A POP NERD AT BEST....Born Joshua Slove as a pre-mature songwriter ("wishful thinking") on September 22, 1973. Adopted by two wonderful parents as a pre-mature creature; re-named "Will"-iam; near Edison Park, IL. My musical interests started late, but found a single cassette tape (Roxette's "Look Sharp!") in my sister's bedroom (years and years and years ago!) that changed my life. Never considered myself as a "deep" writer and/or even a decent writer and I'll tell you first hand that the lyrics I do write can be very simple; simplicity at best?; and maybe the cause of a lack of an EARLY influential drug intake? Either way, it has become a past-time or what I like to call a healthy hobby that takes up a lot of my spare time. The very first lyric titled: "Feelin' So Good (On Top Of The Roof!)", was written back in 1993 on a fall afternoon. After a while, it just became something natural to me and you realize that this discovery of poetic/lyrical writing has now become more of a gift. And how you use it is basically up to the individual and how they want to deliver their personal thoughts, feelings or message. Have to admit, I write more for the simple-minded "folks" like myself--which is not a negative in any way, shape or form--but, I also try to connect and grow as a writer to reach others as well. Thank you for taking the time and viewing the page. Hope you enjoy. Cheers and Peace, Will. ***************************************************"It is not the critic who counts: not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles or where the doer of deeds could have done better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood, who strives valiantly, who errs and comes up short again and again, because there is no effort without error or shortcoming, but who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, who spends himself for a worthy cause; who, at the best, knows, in the end, the triumph of high achievement, and who, at the worst, if he fails, at least he fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who knew neither victory nor defeat." Theodore Roosevelt "Man In The Arena" One of the greatest quotes ever written...
