Art, Music, Crafts

By Mary E. Adair

Featuring Creative People

So many artists have appeared in our ezine through the years that it is difficult to pick out anyone who excels - but Phil Hennessy is one of them.

Phil Hennessy, aka phillipo, is a writer of poetry, music, and life experiences. A musician, in the late 1990's he belonged to, and co-established the musical group "The Common People." A cd by the same name was released by RedMan Records.

In June, we announced him being honored because his poem "God Only Knows" was set to music, and as such placed Phil with the top song in the month of May on the Clay County Radio, CCR, The home of Independent Country Music Promotions ! Here is the youtube link to the song:

To date,97 of his poems have been published with us since 1998. Many of his poems have been chosen by various bands to re-present as songs. Some of his compositions began as songs. Recently Phil contacted us with the news that another poem has become recognized as a song. (See link to uTube below.)

This particular one was co-written by Darren Sims and him. He and 'Daz' also wrote "The Common People" and performed on the CD that was issued then, called, by the same title as their song.

This song by Phil and Daz, was begun by Daz while he waited for his daughter Scarlett to be born. The name "6:03" is the time when she actually arrived.

6:03

6:03, I can hardly believe,
the moment I've been waiting for, is Here
Seems to be, that some part of Me,
was knowing this sensation so clear

Who ever knew THIS kind of Love...?
Who ever knew This kind of Love...
You,
making me Sigh,
making me Cry,
Making me High

Trusting eyes, and Scarlett skies,
I hold you, in my arms, for Ever
No matter how many tears you cry,
I won't be Leaving, you, Never.

Who ever knew THIS kind of Love...?
Who ever knew This kind of Love...
You,
making me sigh,
making me Cry,
Making me High

I'll always Love you,
Always think of you
I'll always Love you,
Always think of you
I'll always Love you,
Always
