So I was having an iChat session with my Dad tonight and I told him that I deleted all my song projects that i’ve been working on for well over, the past two years. “Well, you must have done that during a fit.” he said. Then later in the conversation, he told me to not loose hope; and then made a crack about how he saw Lady GaGa on the television.” Oh yes Dad, I know; it’s awful.”
Years ago I told my parents what I wanted to study, music. My father was very much against it; in fact he laughed at me saying “You couldn’t even play Yankee Doodle Dandy on the piano if I asked you to.” My how this hurt, but I didn’t stop believing in myself, that I had music within me. He even made the comment at the time, that how could I have musical talent; no one else in my family was a musician.
Tonight, I shake my head. Yeah, I just deleted over two years worth of work; but I only did it because I know I can do better; and that I can do it now in far less time. “Don’t loose the hope”- these are words I would have never imagined my father would would say to me. The real funny thing is, though, that my Dad told me tonight that my grandfather, his dad; played in a band, he played the saxophone. Funny, why would he have kept this from me and even gone as far to tell me that no one in my family was musical. I think I’ll go, and start a new project. I will keep the name though, “years prior…”

Isaacson's previous two bestselling biographes were about Ben Franklin and Albert Einstein, if that tells you anything. [NYT]
