Musings of the Lorekeeper

Yep, so that's officially my title right now. (I say officially even though it could change. But right now it has an official title and that is important to me!)

And I have another song to add to the soundtrack for my story. It fits almost as well as Defying Gravity! How cool is that? And this time it's a song that I've known and liked for a long time now, since leithal sent me a CD by the Finnish acapella group Rajaton back during my senior year at K.

The song is "You Can't Stop Me!" Here are the lyrics:

When that happened to me at first I could not see,
but then I decided not to close my eyes!
And then I found a way, and impossible way...
So you said! But it made me fly right away

Now I'm just like a token, spinning in a trance
But surprise! I don't fall and I don't choose either side!
I keep rolling around in a dance I just have found.
The laws of nature make exceptions somehow?

You can't really stop me now!

I keep balancing on but I'm good because I'm strong,
I turn when I see you reaching for me.
And it still makes me laugh when you thought you had had
all of me- but you see: I keep changing on.

You can't really stop me now!

And the tune is absolutely right on for Azilie's personality.

This one is okay to share the lyrics of because while it's obvious to me how it fits, it's not as blatant until after you read the story. :)


I now have four songs "officially" in the soundtrack, and a few more sort of floating in my head to see if they fit. I do love finding songs that can help represent my stories!


Editing update: it's going slowly. I won't make my deadline. But I'll have done pretty good for trying to make it, so that's something. I'd say my achievement is something like placing 5th in the Olympics. Still not too shabby, though I didn't quite make it on to the medals platform, let alone reach the gold. Oh well. There's always the next Olympiad novel! (Plus there's still some time to come back and try for a bronze. We'll see! My deadline is officially August 31, so....)
