I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the one and only Glenn Hughes. His songs have been the inspiration to nine poetrysoup contests. These contests have produced some of the best poems seen to date on soup. What makes the Voice of Rock so great? Well he has over fifty years of music from cover songs to solo albums to bands he's been in. You can't help but thank this man for his commitment to the art. Would anyone else like to join me in expressing gratitude to Glenn? If so, speak up now or forever hold your peace.

Thanks. I was just listening to him now, ‘Mistreated’. His deep purple days were epic. He’s been touring for 17 months from the Burn album. A record everyone should have. Thank you for loving Glenn with me. He’s so super!!!

Dear Robert, music is very inspiring and I understand why you are grateful for his songs. So many singers have touched my heart with their songs as well. Many wonderful blessings to you, my dear friend. :) Brandy

Thank you Brandy. I should step out of the Glenn box soon. But for now, I’m supporting him. I’m glad you love music too!!!

Robert, I’m beginning to think you are Glenn Hughes :) Joking aside he’s a great musician and he’s just completed a very successful world tour I believe. I’m still unclear as to why he left Black Sabbath though. Cheers - Gary

Yes. There are so many songs. I love his Roxanne cover and his song Jolayne. He sings about women a lot. You gotta love women! They often make for the perfect muse for him. Oh sweet romance.
