Listen "Chris Mosdell - Lyricist"
Episode Synopsis
A conversation with Chris Mosdell – poet and lyricist who has written for a vast array of musicians including Yellow Magic Orchestra, Michael Jackson, Sarah Brightman, Tatsuro Yamashita and many more, and in 2023 was honoured with Japan's Classics Day Cultural Foundation Prize, presented by a member of the Imperial family. Mosdell shares the process of writing words for music, the story of why one of his most famous pieces was locked in Michael Jackson’s vaults for decades, being inspired by Kyoto's 10th century "social media", and how the hum of cities has an impact on his words.
