Recounting an ultimately failed struggle to build a music career, "Your Secrets Are Safe With Me" becomes a tale of self-discovery, friendship, love, loss, and hope. It reveals what we lose and what we keep in the effort not only to live but also to find meaning in life. "Your Secrets Are Safe With Me" is, in fact, a narrative of the quest for meaning. At once funny and sad, poignant and absurd, it is not the exploration of one life. Rather, it marks the convergence of many lives linked by the love of music--lives that became intertwined on a journey to discover what it means to be human. For most, the end of the journey came much too soon. It is left to the one who remains to speak for those who can no longer speak for themselves, to express gratitude for all they gave and love for all they were, to show that their lives mattered, to insist that they not be forgotten, and finally to recall the music that they made together, and the joy they found in it and in each other.
