A Little Different


In the spirit of the "old days" Steve Novick now has his own theme song. No, he hasn't borrowed someone else's music like some politicians who have been in hot water for using music without the composer's consent, but someone who supports Steve has written a song just for him. Folk singer and composer Darryl Icard has written the song "A Little Different" for Steve. Click here and have a listen for yourself:

As a music teacher I've always found political songs interesting. Past politicians had all sorts of music for their campaigns, most of it "borrowed" and reworded for the occasion (an example is "Lincoln and Liberty" which uses the same tune as "Acres of Clams"). It is refreshing to have someone so inspired by a candidate that he wrote a song for him.
