Music for Mediators
A Side: Crying in the Rain. B Side: I’m Not Angry www.planetearthrecords.co.ukFor years I have talked about the similarity of mediation with both photographyand music, particularly jazz. I have been clearing out my inbox and came across an hilarious email trail between some of the UK’s top mediators. The topic – songs for mediators, parties and mediation! I thought I would share …
Thank to David Cornes, Mark Jackson-Stops, Bill Wood, John Sturrock for their contributions. I have added some more to their original choices.
Conway Twitty recorded a number of songs which seem perfect for mediation:
- Don’t Take It Away
- It’s Only Make Believe
- Darling You Know I Wouldn’t Lie
- Fifteen Years Ago
- How Much More Can She Stand?
- You’ve Never Been This Far Before
- I See The Want To In Your Eyes
- I Can’t Believe She Gives It All To Me
- Ain’t She Somethin’ Else
- Don’t Call Him a Cowboy
- That’s My Job
- Goodbye Time
- After All the Good Is Gone
- Lead Me On
- Oh What A Dream
- Somebody Lied
and then the Everly Brothers have a great selection…
- All I Have To Do Is Dream
- Let It Be Me
- Like Strangers
- Problems
- Devoted To You
- Take A Message To Mary
- Walk Right Back
- Don’t Blame Me
- Don’t Ask Me To Be Friends
- When Will I Be Loved?
- I Wonder If I Care
- I’m Not Angry
- Somebody Help Me
- It’s All Over
- Cathy’s Clown
- Crying In The Rain
- I’m On My Way Home Again
And Daron Norwood has the album and the song: Ready, Willing and Able is the album and Bad Dog, No Biscuit the song.
Pre-mediation: I Can’t Get No Satisfaction.
In the middle of a mediation: River Deep, Mountain High.
Post mediation … tell me, what is your choice?
