Studio Musician Lyrics

Lyric discussion by Qermaq 

Cover art for Studio Musician lyrics by Barry Manilow

Song is filled with musician jargon. The basic message is that the protagonist is not a flashy star but a run-of-the-mill ordinary part of a greater whole. I see it as a song to a lover, telling how she finally gives him the audience he deserves, not musically but personally. Maybe he cannot be a celebrity music star but he is in her eyes and that's enough.

My Opinion
