https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HhO6oKetxto&ab_channel=MC1738 - Have You Ever? by Brandy
Why did you choose the song?
Looping health issues, family drama- who doesn't though. missing the Brandy Verzuz Monica Battle, gaining two major blessings (a job one day before being laid-off and not needing another surgery for something I had six years ago,)besides the 100 daily blessings I receive already! I usually sing when I am happy or confident.
What mood were you in before/after the song?
Trying to get back to the recording but I've been documenting my podcast ideas, writing-not typing my lyrics (makes recording sooo much easier), but I have not been recording nor hunting down new beats. Nor have I been motivated to make my own. I honestly just feel compelled to write. I even wanted to go back to writing my book I didn't finish 4 years ago. And When I do want to sing I really just want to record my original acapella just to make sure it is just recorded.
Would you be willing to Karaoke or sing-a-long?
Sorry but you will be tolerating me the entire play
Please specify the lyrics that motivated you:
Monica:
It's just one of them days, when I wanna be all alone
It's just one of them days, when I gotta be all alone
It's just one of them days, don't take it personal
I just wanna be all alone, and you think I treat you wrong
I wanna take some time out to think things through
I know it always feels like I'm doing you wrong
But I'm so in love with you
So understand that I'm only in love you're the only one I need
So have no thought that I want to leave and baby trust me, please
I see and I think about everything we do
And I find myself in misery and that ain't cool
Hey now, I really want to be with you the whole way through
But the way you make me feel inside keeps me confused
Brandy:
Have you ever been in love?
Been in love so bad
You'd do anything to make them understand?
Have you ever had someone steal your heart away?
You'd give anything to make them feel the same?
Have you finally found the one you've given your heart to
Only to find that one won't give their heart to you?
Have you ever closed your eyes and
Dreamed that they were there
And all you can do is wait for the day when they will care?

What mood were you in before/after the song?
Feeling a bit stung. long story short a friend of mine posted a comment about losing the glue in the family, You know the Grandmother and maybe the Aunt or Uncle that always cooked or said I got you. Mine... I wish was here for a hug and I knew in 2008 I had to be that Daughter, Sister, and Aunt.
When the women that raised all the kids died I felt lost, didn't know what building, bed to call home, I understood their bloodlines saying goodbye and a new struggle and new identification beginning. my cousins are still my cousins.
Now, I'm trying to choose me to make my house a home, people accuse me overdoing it, lol what choice do I truly have? I cannot borrow excess money from friends and family. One, I feel we're in similar boats. Two, I will always feel guilty if I impact your flow unable to pay you - trust I saw the karma to my mother, three, I am honestly used pushing till God stops me, thus if I already owe you money I feel that I can not ask you for more. So yes, school is a must, working is a must, choosing my brain over my pain is a must. My productivity is the only Stimulus Package I can trust.

Creed:
With arms wide open
With arms wide open
Well I don't know if I'm ready
To be the man I have to be
I'll take a breath, I'll take her by my side
We stand in awe, we've created life
If I had just one wish
Only one demand
I hope he's not like me
I hope he understands
That he can take this life
And hold it by the hand
And he can greet the world
With arms wide open
Luther:
A chair is still a chair, even when there's no one sittin' there
But a chair is not a house and a house is not a home
A room is a still a room, even when there's nothin' there but gloom
But a room is not a house and a house is not a home
When the two of us are far apart
And one of us has a broken heart
Now and then I call your name
And suddenly your face appears
But it's just a crazy game
When it ends, it ends in tears

And that's about the time she walked away from me
Nobody likes you when you're twenty-three
And you still act like you're in freshman year
What the hell is wrong with me?
My friends say I should act my age
What's my age again, what's my age again?
That's about the time she broke up with me
No one should take themselves so seriously
With many years ahead to fall inline

September 01, 2020 Life: Jacob Blake, Trayvon, Breonna, Maragaret, George
Guest: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/
You know what’s going on in the current news.
An African-American (black) unarmed man shot 7 times in the back while walking away with nothing absolutely nothing in his hands and his children watched.
How many times have you heard the terms black before describing the details? Already trying in some way to diminish the value of the person’s life?
I will say this is finally the generation we get to see them..... we hear them... they are no longer hidden.
I guess this is also why most groups don’t like me because I speak my mind.
Right now, I must say that I am truly tired of being referred to as a COLOR.
Before it was colored before it was nig***, coon, dirt, cotton picker, milk cow, etc. pretty much imagine the lowest name you could give a person who had no choice. I mean anyone with African-American descent has been called it. Not always to their face but always in history, CHATTEL/SLAVE.
I understand in 1865 Caucasians controlling America knew African-Americans overpopulated the states, their doing, not ours, it’s called supply chain and the use of machine over humans, but you still were supposed to be children of God thus treating others the way you wished to be treated, seeing that we were also people of God that to mark us as slaves was to thus be marking yourselves not a child of God? and yet here we are now allowing killing based on color (black) again over recognizing that regardless of the shade you shouldn't want to see life fade?
All you wanted was power, control, to be Cain. Quit trying to stop equality. please.
It’s a cycle,
Politics is an illusion that is about money. Yes, I vote! I vote for the actual person with the character shown that I respect not the party. I wish it was an actual council of equal power so that one ethnicity could never outrank another. One built to actually speak on experience.
How do you think Trump became president? Going from one party to another over race (black vs white). There are so many issues to solve. Please listen. Please go back and read it! Your ancestors put so much in place that it is amazing you are still ignoring it today. Please Change.

Why did you choose the song?
Well, I had grown tired of watching Paw Patrol with my three-year-old son so I thought if I could just trick him into something new...and it worked! He was already into Scooby!

What mood were you in before/after the song?
I was feeling like an " I'm a non-Barbie girl in a very typical Barbie corporate world" mood and needed a pick me up to get away from the evil.
Would you be willing to Karaoke or sing-a-long?
Not sure, I may just want to hear it!
Please specify the lyrics that motivated you:
Daniel:
Where is the moment we needed the most?
You kick up the leaves, and the magic is lost
They tell me your blue sky's faded to gray
They tell me your passion's gone away
And I don't need no carrying on
You stand in the line just to hit a new low
You're faking a smile with the coffee to go
You tell me your life's been way off line
You're falling to pieces every time
And I don't need no carrying on
Sometimes the system goes on the blink
And the whole thing, it turns out wrong
You might not make it back and you know
That you could be well, oh, that strong
And I'm not wrong (yeah, yeah, yeah)
So where is the passion when you need it the most?
Oh, you and I
You kick up the leaves and the magic is lost
'Cause you had a bad day
You're taking one down
You sing a sad song just to turn it around
You say you don't know
You tell me, "don't lie"
You work at a smile, and you go for a ride
You had a bad day
The camera don't lie
You're coming back down, and you really don't mind
You had a bad day
You had a bad day
Brighter Day:
Once you've experienced that bad day you testify or exclaim this:
When I close my eyes and think of you
And reminisce on all the things you do
I can't imagine my life without you
It's like paradise now I know that it's real (um)
It's a mystery for someone to give their life just for me
What you did on calvary
Makes me wanna love you more
I never knew I could be so happy
And I never knew I'd be so secure because of your love
Life has brand new meaning
It's gonna be a brighter day, brighter day
Never thought that I would smile again
I never thought the dark clouds would end
Never thought the dark clouds would end
Never thought that I could have a friend
That would keep me never leave me alone (um)
Jesus, you're my everything
The only one that makes my heart sing (heart sing)
Now I know what real love means
It's everlasting, lasting.

I was just watching The Matrix, so needless to say I was in a tired of the way the world works mood! Plus I needed to hear some motivational songs from a different genre today!

After listening to all of the songs I am now motivated to further unpack and fold some more clothes lol snd stop worrying!
Would you be willing to Karaoke or sing-a-long?
Today I am exhausted!
Please specify the lyrics that motivated you:
Bon Jovi:
This ain't a song for the broken-hearted
No silent prayer for the faith-departed
I ain't gonna be just a face in the crowd
You're gonna hear my voice
When I shout it out loud
This is for the ones who stood their ground
It's for Tommy and Gina who never backed down
Tomorrow's getting harder, make no mistake
Luck ain't enough
You've got to make your own breaks
It's my life
And it's now or never
I ain't gonna live forever
I just want to live while I'm alive
(It's my life)
My heart is like an open highway
Like Frankie said
I did it my way
I just want to live while I'm alive
It's my life
You better stand tall when they're calling you out
Don't bend, don't break, baby, don't back down
Q & D:
Pressure pushing down on me
Pressing down on you, no man ask for
Under pressure that burns a building down
Splits a family in two
Puts people on streets
It's the terror of knowing what the world is about
Watching some good friends screaming
"Let me out!"
Pray tomorrow gets me higher
Pressure on people, people on streets
Can't we give ourselves one more chance?
Why can't we give love that one more chance?
Why can't we give love, give love, give love, give love
Give love, give love, give love, give love, give love?
'Cause love's such an old fashioned word
And love dares you to care for
The people on the edge of the night
And love (people on streets) dares you to change our way of
Caring about ourselves
This is our last dance
This is our last dance
This is ourselves under pressure
Under pressure
Pressure
Drowning Pool:
Beaten why for (why for)
Can't take much more
(Here we go, here we go, here we go)
Push me again (again)
This is the end
(Here we go, here we go, here we go)
Skin against skin, blood and bone
You're all by yourself but you're not alone
You wanted in now you're here
Driven by hate consumed by fear
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
Let the bodies hit the floor
One, nothing wrong with me
Two, nothing wrong with me
Three, nothing wrong with me
Four, nothing wrong with me
One, something's got to give
Two, something's got to give
Three, something's got to give now

Guest: RareRuby - https://www.instagram.com/rareruby86/
Why did you choose the song?
Respect for one another is one of the main reasons for The Ten Commandments. You know treat others the way you would like to be treated. At least that’s why I’ve always extended the ruling of "turn the other cheek" to 6 cheeks then I won’t go to hell for you. A bit deep I know but that’s why most don’t like me.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wEBlaMOmKV4 - A Change Is Gonna Come by Sam Cooke
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6FOUqQt3Kg0- Respect by Aretha Franklin
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lPSvZdJwAj0 - That'll Be Good Enough For Me by Rance Allen
What mood were you in before/after the song?
I realized after scrolling on Facebook and commenting on a friend’s posting that I really meant what I said. I do not want a funeral. I told her if it couldn’t be said or written while I was still alive to read it or hear it so we could move on and build together then that attendee didn’t care about me. They can speak to me through God, forgiveness is automatic per my death.
I just want my letters and ashes given to those I wrote to. Because I don’t want my story told incorrectly.
Would you be willing to Karaoke or sing-a-long?
Sorry but you will be tolerating me slightly
Please specify the lyrics that motivated you:
Sam:
Oh, when I go to my brother
I'd say brother, help me, please
But he winds up knockin' me
Back down on my knees
There been times that I thought I wouldn't last for long
Now I think I'm able to carry on
It's been a long, a long time coming
But I know a change's gonna come, oh, yes, it will
Aretha:
I ain't gonna do you wrong while you're gone
Ain't gonna do you wrong 'cause I don't wanna
All I'm askin'
Is for a little respect when you come home (just a little bit)
Baby (just a little bit) when you get home (just a little bit)
Yeah (just a little bit)
I'm about to give you all of my money
And all I'm askin' in return, honey
Is to give me my propers
When you get home (just a, just a, just a, just a)
Yeah, baby (just a, just a, just a, just a)
When you get home (just a little bit)
Yeah (just a little bit)
Rance:
Been siging this song since it played on local 1480AM and I was living off Sterling with my grandparents. I love the entire song but this is truly why I am still here.
If I can only make it to heaven
That will be good enough for me
Because heaven is the place
Where I want to be

The lyrics to Travelin' Soldier have always stung me because I was in Washington State when I saw the News report about my first love, Juan's death. So I deeply understood.
Misty Blue was introduced to me by my Godmother Georgia Mae Allen, she also got Ruby Andrews in my ear. I understood what Dorothy was saying even at the age of 8 but I always have and always will take it from a family and bloodline context, not from that of a relationship.

One Friday night at a football game

Was the piccolo player in the marching band
And one name read and nobody really cared
But a pretty little girl with a bow in her hair
