Theme: Magic

Some people like themes that are musical concepts like last week's chord progression and some like lyrical, some are good with either. I'm going to try and alternate between the two. The week's theme is "borrowed" from reddit and was post Scoobyben about a year ago. Unfortunately I am still traveling and will not be submitting a song this week.

The unexplained, the arcane, the occult. There are many kinds of magic in this world - from street magic to high fantasy wizards, from headology to cthonic rituals. Even music itself can be magical - see Vishnu's conch, the Pied Piper's pipe, or Orpheus' lyre.

Here are some songs about magic for inspiration:

Every Little Thing She Does Is Magic - The Police

A Kind Of Magic - Queen

I Put A Spell On You - Nine Simone Screamin Jay Hawkins cover

The Wizard - Black Sabbath

Rhiannon - Fleetwood Mac
