Bobby McFerrin Sings Ave Maria…and…….. brings tears to my eyes
Folks I am so in awe. Last night a friend of mine put me on to a Bobby Mcferrin video that brought tears to my eyes. It was his rendition of Ave Maria and he sang the Back music note for note. It was absolutely beautiful. A lovely choir accompanied him and it was oh so heavenly. Whats crazy is this video came out like 4 years ago. Where was I? He is amazing. Talented and light hearted what a beautiful performance. Feel free to check it out.

Please enjoy and share with everyone…it’s so lovely.

Thank You- Alanis Morissette
how 'bout getting off of these antibiotics how 'bout stopping eating when I'm full up how 'bout them transparent dangling carrots how 'bout that ever elusive kudo thank you India thank you terror thank you disillusionment thank you frailty thank you consequence thank you thank you silence how 'bout me not blaming you for everything how 'bout me enjoying the moment for once how 'bout how good it feels to finally forgive you how 'bout grieving it all one at a time thank you India thank you terror thank you disillusionment thank you frailty thank you consequence thank you thank you silence the moment I let go of it was the moment I got more than I could handle the moment I jumped off of it was the moment I touched down how 'bout no longer being masochistic how 'bout remembering your divinity how 'bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out how 'bout not equating death with stopping thank you India thank you Providence thank you disillusionment thank you nothingness thank you clarity thank you thank you silence Yeah
Today is one of those days where I definately want to say thank you! thank you to all those who supported me along my journey!
To life, to chance, to opportunity. Thanks to all of my choices for landing me here, where I am today. I am so grateful.
Here i am in a pic from when I had first arrived in NYC about 5 years ago and I was working with Soundbar Recordings to get my music out there. We recorded two songs When I think of U and ME ME ME (if you see me). These songs were featured on their Fly Rap Money compilation. Both are up on itunes. At the time I was going by TK Rose and just putting myself out there. Really trying to survive in NYC. What a journey. Still the music pumps through my veins. Still I right songs and enjoy their melody. But lately all I can say is thank you! Thank you thank you. I can’t believe I have had the chance to live and travel and do so much! To sing and work and love and live to love again.
Just looking at that pictures brings back so many memories as if it were yesterday that we were all packed into that small car racing to Manhattan Bridge and over to Dumbo, then up to the Bronx to do our photo shoot.
We were having so much fun and were so full of faith and so supportive of each others art. I was singing all around the city for upcoming artists and really trying my best to live this thing.
Soon I felt the pressure to get a job and work to make money so that I could have a stable place to live. At the time I was not so confident in making my own way or living solely by faith and declaring my destiny. I wanted a weekly check. That slowed things down for me and opened up other doors. I continued to work and write and sing and the doors kept opening ever slightly based on my faith and determination.
Wow what a trip. Here I am today. Working and singing and living in a beautiful apartment in Harlem and the doors are still opening and God still has patience and grace as I continue to walk behind my passion.

Inspired by Lyrics
Lose Myself: Lauryn Hill
I used to do it for the love a long time ago
And all I ever wanted was love
I used to love without fear a long time ago
And all I ever wanted was love
Then somebody came around and tried to hurt me
Tried to make me feel like I was unworthy
Took a pure love and tried to make it dirty
Truth was they never did deserve me
No!
Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could love you better
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could
love you better
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself
So I could love you better
Had to lose myself in love
And that’s just the way it is…
Couldn’t tell me I was love when I needed it
When, all I ever wanted was love.
Should a told me just me because!
I’m worth receiving it
But all I ever wanted was love
There’s is something awkward about the selflessness it
takes to
Give love and the good that it makes you!
True love can never really forsake you
But it took a little while just for me to see!
Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could love you better
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could
love you better
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself
So I could love you better
Had to lose myself in love
And that’s just the way it is…
I had a paralyzing fear of facing failure
And I couldn’t love you perfectly with fear in my head
So I peerlessly had to face the danger
So I could come back and love you whole instead
All of your soul I said!
So I could make it better
Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could love you better
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could
love you better
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself
So I could love you better
Had to lose myself in love
And that’s just the way it is…
B-Sec:
And so it goes that I never meant to hurt you
Couldn’t stay but I never meant to desert you
Whole lot a things I just had to work thru
Time to heal and restore myself worth too
Confrontation of my fears and anxiety
Cried a whole lot years I suffered quietly
And though it may have taken years I can finally!
Tell you that you were always on my mind!
Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could make it better
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could
make it better
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself
So I could make it better
Had to lose myself in love
And that was just the way!
Bridge:
Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did
Great love to absorb all the misuse I did
Hey baby it’s not an excuse I give.
And I’d do it all again because for you I live
Takes strength to absorb all the abuse I did
Great love to absorb all the abuse I did
Hey baby it’s not an excuse I give.
And I’d do it all again because for you I live
Chorus:
I had to lose myself so I could make it better
I had to lose myself, had to lose myself so I could
make it better
Had to lose myself, had to lose myself
So I could make it better
Had to lose myself in love
And that was just the way!
And that was just the way it is…
