Photography Songs

Posted on January 12, 2007 By Tom No Comments on Photography Songs
Music, Photography

For every situation in life there exists at least one song or bastardization thereof.

Taylor’s Axiom

I’ve posted them before. As a musician, those are words I’ve tried to live by. As a hobbyist, I like to find songs that fit my current passion. I’ve collected river songs for when I’m kayaking, songs about maps and travel for when I’m geocaching, and now I need some good photography songs to load up my iPod.

The obvious ones to pop into my mind are "Kodachrome" by Simon & Garfunkel, "Photographs and Memories" by Jim Croce, and "Freezeframe" by J. Geils Band. I guess "Angel is a Centerfold" by J. Geils would also fit.

I did a quick search of iTunes using the keywords "photograph" and "camera." The list was a bit intimidating. Some of them I recognized, and others I couldn’t place. Use the term "picture", and the search results get even broader. I tried several other photo-related terms – "black and white", "shades of gray", "portrait", "landscape", and "closeup". Heck, I even found songs matching the terms "tripod", "lens", "telephoto", "wide-angle" and "light meter". (That last one was a song called "Meter" from the Pleiadians on the album "Family of Light".) It seems that it’s much easier to write a song about images than it is to write about kayaking or geocaching. I’ve found more than enough music with just this terms to fill a huge playlist. I’ll have to see when I come up with for a reasonable list.
