...that's a great way to put it...and how I always think of playing  
harmonica too. To me it's always about 'the song' (even if it's an instrumental  - in 
that case I simply think the melody), but always I sing the song in my  head 
while using the harmonica to convey it instead of my voice, which  means, of 
course..that I have to know the song before I can play it well, but  that's fine 
since I seem to know hundreds upon hundreds of songs I hadn't  before 
realized I knew. Must have just absorbed them by osmosis. :)
