    Default Christy Moore (singer/songwriter)

    One of my absolute all-time favorites. Type, anyone?

    Quotes:

    ”If I had to live again I would do exactly the same thing. Of course I have regrets, but if you are 60 years old and you have no regrets then you haven't lived.”
    ”As I have got older I have become more focused on words. I labour long and hard now over the precise words I sing. Thirty years ago I would take a song, learn it and just sing it but I can’t do that any more. I have to be at ease with every phrase and I search for the perfect word. I write out songs longhand and keep all revisions, sometimes over 20 or 30 pages. Even though it wrecks me sometimes, it’s a labour of love.”
    ”My main interest is my work, which is a blessing I suppose, but I do find it hard enough to let go. I like to walk, go to the cinema and theatre and do a bit of exercise. And I love sport.”
    ”Music has never become a job. When we are out on stage, that’s when we get our kicks,” Moore says. “I live in a cocoon of my own work and I am quite happy with that.”
    When asked while still wholly solo how he sustained the motivation to deliver such consistently compelling, charismatic shows, night after night, even after decades in the business, Moore replied by quoting an unnamed American comedian he'd once read about: "He said that before every gig, you have to remember there might be people in the audience who've saved up for weeks or months to buy tickets. Or there might be someone there who's very ill – this might be the last gig they ever see. Regardless of how you're feeling, it's your job to go out and do the very best you can.”

    Sensory Feeler type.

    Dual type (as per tcaudilllg)
    Enneagram 5 (wings either 4 or 6)?


    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    ESFp men come off as introverted at time. My brother is one example.

    I think SLI might work too, but he doesn't remind me too much of one, very longwinded.

    ESI is interesting. I had not thought of that. I am usually quick to firmly place singer/songwriters I like this much into delta.

    But now I wonder if I really see Ne PoLR...

    Saturday Morning and I still miss John Peel. Nelson is struggling to leave. The Bees are disappearing and the news is dominated by The Stones at Glastonbury. I’m here in bed contemplating the Lions running out in Melbourne. I heard from Donnacha O'Callaghan. He reckons that Paul O'Connell should play with only one good arm. I really should get up and do my pre match routine. Stretch the socks pull on the jocks, put on the kettle, boil the tea; find the remote and away we go.
    Passages likes this make me think vs and rationality. Also in this passage as well.

    I won't say it's definitive what type he is, but I had him as ESI or SLI, and ESI seems more likely. ^_^

    Also he doesn't talk enough about food ^_^ and seems very sincere and warm person. His communication style seems more warm vs cold.
