Diane Schuur ~ I Wanna Go Home

 

editor’s note:  a song very present in my heart right now.  oh wow, is it all but crushing me.  allowing it in and out.  i picked up this CD of hers in the early 90’s.  yeah while all of my friends were listening to Nirvana, Pearl Jam, i was really into this kind of music.  still am.  i’ve always been “older” than my peers in this regard.  my goddess ~ her voice ~ AMAZING!  enjoy the smooth, emotionally charged voice of Miss D.  LOVE the sax solo too.  oooh what smooth jazz does to my Soul.  in a parallel realm ~ perhaps the next one over ~ i am a jazz singer.  no joke.  [wp-svg-icons icon=”cool” wrap=”i”]

A Musical Tribute ~ For The Children

 

I originally wrote this piece in 2004 or 2005.  It came to me after an image of a mother holding her dead child came to me ~ a result of war (the war in Iraq was raging).  I tried to get some publicity for it to show the side of war that MSM and others were refusing to see ~ death of the innocent.

As was and is with my music, it has just sat in isolation, until breakthrough comes or a chance to play comes my way.  I had forgotten about this song until tonight.  As I was enjoying some time alone playing freely, I suddenly began to just play this song.  It caught me off guard for even though I was in free flow, playing whatever came through me, whether a cover or one of my own, I had not given this song any tending to in years.  I was also surprised at how quickly it came back to me ~ as in instantly.  Also unusual.

As I played it, it took on new meaning, new energy.  Expansive.  I thought of the beautiful precious children who have been trafficked, raped, used for the sickest of “purposes” – if you can even use that word.  Given I recently spoke about this subject and how I could just not spend much energy going down that rabbit hole, certainly not able to stay “down there” for long, I thought the least I could do was what, honor? them with this song.

I song to say we feel your pain.  We see it.  As best we can.

We mourn.  We rage.

A song of solidarity.  A song to say “I see you”.  A song to say “you are not forgotten.  You never have been.  You never will be.”  A song to say YOU MATTER.

And a song to say we the human species will never allow this horror plagued upon our children to infiltrate our human experience again.

Here it is below ~ live, unedited.  “For The Children”.  Feel free to share.

Purple Rain

 

today has been an intense one in terms of me feeling/seeing Prince and hearing Purple Rain running through my mind, heart and soul.  i was suddenly urged to listen to the song, so i pulled it up on youtube and listened.  right after that, i checked my social media page and see a meme of Prince from the movie, playing purple rain.

also today i was hosing off the front sidewalk.  this included chalk drawings of my girl – a mix of pink and blue that turned a light purple as the water hit it.  “purple rain”, i thought, the song once again going through my mind.

tonight i decided to listen to Love Song by Tesla.  up next i see – Purple Rain.

i wanted to get Prince’s perspective on purple rain and this is what i found: “Prince explained the meaning of “Purple Rain” as follows: “When there’s blood in the sky – red and blue = purple… purple rain pertains to the end of the world and being with the one you love and letting your faith/god guide you through the purple rain.”‘

we are at the end of this experience.  i feel it growing daily.

for now, enjoying music he left behind here in this realm…

WSO ~ Amazing Sky Photos End of March, 2018 with RICK NORRIS

 

Editor’s note:  Love the images and the tune.  Such passionate, raw, truthful words.  Earlier today I played the piano and paused to watch the sun.  I had this sudden desire ~ a first ~ to help break down the matrix grid, given all is frequency.  All I got was note “A” (a tune in “A” – like minor) ~ so I will keep at it.  [wp-svg-icons icon=”heart” wrap=”i”]

Beatles ~ BlackBird

 

Earlier today I was drawn on two occasions to look outside.  When I did, there was a Black Bird outside.  I felt a connection and simply observed, honoring the intelligence in these birds.  They often receive a bad wrap.  I would have let the whole thing go if my child had not just walked over to me asking to hear the song “Black Bird”.

I just had to share.  A beautiful tribute to truth seekers and freedom creators everywhere.  [wp-svg-icons icon=”heart-2″ wrap=”i”]

Resharing ~ My Piano Piece ~ Ascension in C#

 

sometimes i forget about the pieces i have written.  the only time i played this one was the day i recorded it – i just sat down, heard the tune and went w/it. the story this one is telling me tonight is one of those who are struggling right now in this calling of awakening to Truth.  been there, done that often over the years.  i wish all of them well.  and i wish unity for us all as well.  [wp-svg-icons icon=”heart-2″ wrap=”i”]

Appropriate Song To BREAKTHROUGH This Mass of Dark SH## ~ Into The LIGHT of TRUTH

 

This song has been going through my mind daily for about 2 weeks now. Not necessarily all of the lyrics ~ just the basic message – break on through to the other side.  Thought I would share it.  As you listen, do the meditation I posted about earlier.  Helps for the feeling part (for me at least).  Music = inspiration.  [wp-svg-icons icon=”cool” wrap=”i”]
