Some people write diaries or journals, or keep a personal blog. Besides the period when I was in a band, performing, I have mostly written songs; for various purposes over the years. This is a selection of the most noteworthy hundred of my own lyrics. Most have never been recorded, many not even performed. What motivated me to publish them was my realisation that writing lyrics has, for fifty years of my life (age 20 to 70) been my way of expressing myself as a poet. Since 70 I have mostly written straight poems/verses - as in my two volumes Sketches and Landscapes and (most recently) Sour Wine. I initially thought of publishing the lyrics as if they were poetry on the page but decided that they are essentially lyrics, and that does not lower their status as poems. If anything (certainly for some) it may enhance it. Thus the verse numbers are given, the choruses identified, and the pattern of repetition for each. About a third were written for successive bands CMU, Trident and Eucalyptus, or are personal/general or about my family. These include four recorded on Spotify in 2017 (for my wife Anne, performed at her 70th) entitled 'I am Your Man', and 'The Birthday Man' recorded on my own 70th. Twelve are songs performed and recorded by my son Alex's first ever band, the Young Equals, formed in response to the Commission for Racial Equality's campaign 'All Different All Equal' in 1996. Earlier, in the 1980s I was a member of CND, and wrote a number of songs for local campaigning in Cambridge and later in Greenwich. I was also elected to Cambridgeshire County Council in 1981. All of the 'political' songs are strictly historical, relating to issues in the 1980s when Labour was in opposition, in the county as in the country. Finally, nearly a quarter of the songs are broadly spiritual, some reflecting my fifty years of being a Quaker, others to periods when I took time off from Friends to explore other styles of Christianity, and indeed other faiths. It's a mixed bag, rather like a mosaic of experiences and attitudes during my 76 years so far on this planet. I felt it could be read as a sort of memoir, even though there are swathes of my life in which I did not write many, sometimes even any songs. And if the opportunity presents for me to record the 75 or so of them that have never yet been recorded, I shall be happy to do so, though my voice at 76 is not what it was, and I haven't picked up a guitar for a while!

“The heart of Orr’s poetry, now as ever, is the enigmatic image . . . mystical, carnal, reflective, wry.”—San Francisco Review This book-length sequence of ecstatic, visionary lyrics recalls Rumi in its search for the beloved and its passionate belief in the healing qualities of art and beauty. Concerning the Book that is the Body of the Beloved is an incantatory celebration of the “Book,” an imaginary and self-gathering anthology of all the lyrics—both poems and songs—ever written. Each poem highlights a distinct aspect of the human condition, and together the poems explore love, loss, restoration, the beauty of the world, the beauty of the beloved, and the mystery of poetry. The purpose and power of the Book is to help us live by reconnecting us to the world and to our emotional lives. I put the beloved In a wooden coffin. The fire ate his body; The flames devoured her. I put the beloved In a poem or song. Tucked it between Two pages of the Book. How bright the flames. All of me burning, All of me on fire And still whole. There is nothing quite like this book—an “active anthology” in the best sense—where individuals find the poems and songs that will sustain them. Or the poems find them. Gregory Orr is the author of eight books of poetry, four volumes of criticism, and a memoir. He has received numerous awards for his work, most recently the Academy Award in Literature from the American Academy of Arts and Letters. Orr has taught at the University of Virginia since 1975 and was, for many years, the poetry editor of The Virginia Quarterly Review. He lives with his family in Charlottesville, Virginia.
