I have been reflecting on the songwriters whose works have most influenced me as a songwriter and as a person.

for anyone familiar with the songs that i write, they could probably see the subtle shadings from these songwriters, coloring the chord progressions, texturing the lyrics.
Even though i've given recognition to these songwriters on many an occasion, i'd just been thinking about it lately and decided to encourage any random readers to check out the music these artists are creating, and DON'T BURN IT... buy it.

Dude, what about Barry Manilow...you quoted him in your title? surely he's got to make it on your list of influential musicians!
