Inspired."- Counter Culture"This is a heavyweight but easy to read discussion of how to approach important issues using song lyrics as a starting point."- Yoga for Health"In Lyrics to Live By— Keys to Self-help Notes for a Better Life, Tim Bragg, a French-based British musician/author, offers his readers an exquisite collection of essays, giving them relaxing yet challenging moments of reflection on various problems of life. He starts from an original idea, that of coming back to his longstanding love, music, and of taking particular lines from well-known song lyrics and using them as starting points for his thoughtful considerations.""By using a highly intertextual approach that combines music and literature, poetry and philosophy, Tim Bragg gives us the occasion to get a moving insight into the mind and soul of a musician who ponders on art and life, and on their subtle yet deep relationship. Various songs written by well-known artists belonging mainly to the Golden Age of rock provides him with insightful lyrics that inspire him to dwell on the meaning of life, on the general goals we usually set in a lifetime and on the means we choose to use in order to achieve them."- Cinematic Illusions
