Scenes From Fatherhood

As a woman, let me tell you that Something (For Janette) is one of THEEE most romantic, loving and wonderful songs that I have ever heard. And, the fact that you chose to share that special gift with the rest of the world is awesome! It allows us to see the glory of your relationship. Besides, most every person that has heard that song in my presence has commented about how romantic and wonderful it is! I’m looking forward to the next show.

Your music is wonderful, and the words — beyond words.

Thanks for the great songs! My wife & I sat for 4-5 min. after listening to My Oyster& were deeply moved. What more could an artist & musician achieve! I buy a lot of CDs, and this is truly one of the best ones I’ve heard all year! The lyrics are great and your voice is great.

I’ve been listening to a particular CD titled My Oyster and I believe it has helped me dissolve any excessive amounts of tar in my veins. The lyrics are like poetry and the music is a moving interpretation of the poem’s analysis. Both together are like inspiration itself pouring over my eardrums, soaking me in life and philosophy. It means a lot more to me in particular, however, because My Oyster was written, performed, and produced by Cory Cullinan, a high school friend of my brother’s who I believe really understands the pain of loss and the value of living.

My Oyster is an extraordinary creation, a work of boundless imagination, and, as the title of the CD suggests, near relentless optimism, inflected by a fine sense of irony.

I have just listened to your Magnum Opus. Quite frankly, it’s a goddam masterpiece. I don’t even know where to start in my praise of your creation: raucous, groovin’, lyrical, baroque, moving, funny. Well I guess that is a start after all. If I can get my interpretative faculties around the CD I will review it for the northern California paper I write for.

A Little Extra won first place in the 2008 WCS International Song Competition in the Miscellaneous (unconventional/other) category.

Award-winning mastermind and musical composer Cory Cullinan releases a one-of-a-kind over 10 minute long landmark achievement in experimental music. Called Footprint, the song features a hallucinatory mix of sounds including chirping birds, ocean waves, dropping water, wind, haunting soundscapes and combustable rhythms…

Thank you for this beautiful piece and the comfort it has given me in knowing I’m not alone.

Beautiful song. It brought up all sorts of emotions and memories in my own life and loss.
