  • Randy Newman, one of my favorite songwriters, is this subject of this video. We explore how Randy's uses the "mask" of his characters in his songs, his approach to writing music, and what his song's say about himself as we explore Randy's songwriting. The information from this video comes from Randy Newman's American Dreams by Kevin Courrier, Maybe I'm Doing It Wrong by David & Caroline Stafford, and Greil Marcus' essay on Randy from his book Mystery Train.

    Newman wrote the music and lyrics and sang the theme song for the TV Detective "Monk". His best in my opinion.

    3.14 no harmonic complexities? That strikes me as a very silly comment from them about him.
    "A lot of the time he's happy letting V follow II and I follow V...." Yeah duh.
    Now let them try and cover a song by him or Ray Charles including the piano and in case of Randy also the orchestra without using more then 3 note harmony...
    Apart from that, rythm, feel and timing is huge in music. It's not simple.
    Randy can say that about himself. But no one else imho.

    His songs, and yours always seem a little 'hymn' like to me. A story shallow buried beneath an accessible tune. Hidden depths, though. Keep listening and there's more going on. Nice job.
