moments of zen

Totally on a Lady Gaga kick these days.

Her music is perfection to run really hard to. And she round out the "yeah, I listen to Lady GaGa and Joan Jett and I might just get off this elliptical and kick your ass if you look at me wrong" collection.

And I just think she has a whole new take on the pop scene.

Plus I dig it that she says her name in every song she does. Gotta respect that level of cockiness.

This song is great and the video is performance art.

I didn't get it all at first, but the more interviews I read with her, I really admire her creativity.

She's not for the faint of heart.

And who can resist a bad romance where you love even the ugly and drama.

I defy you to listen and not find yourself humming "Rah-rah-ah-ah-ah! Roma-Roma-ma-ah!"
Get your freak bitch attitude going and open your mind.

Bad Romance- Lady Gaga

This is song has recently made it onto my workout playlist.

It's part of the "yeah, I listen to Lady GaGa and Joan Jett and I might just get off this elliptical and kick your ass if you look at me wrong" collection.

Sometime angry chick music is just the thing to kick up the heart rate.

So, put on some red lipstick or a leather jacket and climb higher baby!

Zero- Yeah Yeah Yeahs

Even the stars are shining for you.

Get out there and shine today.

Daily Inspiration-

We can be Heroes, for just one day.

What did you do today to make your life and your world a better place?

It's been one month since an earthquake devastated Haiti.

Today I am reflecting on what I have done over the last month and how my life would be utterly different if I has been in Haiti on 12 JAN 2010.

There's much to be done to hep out in Haiti, but here's one simple thing you can do today to make a difference.

- Download "Everybody Hurts (Helping Haiti)" from iTunes.

This track was written and originally performed by one of my favorite bands, REM, who graciously waived the royalty fees for this remake produced by Simon Cowell. It's a great song on it's own, but with the proceeds going to relief for Haiti adding this to a playlist is a no-brainer. Artists include:Robbie Williams, Gary Barlow and Mark Owen as well as X Factor stars Cheryl Cole, JLS, Leona Lewis, Joe McElderry and Alexandra Burke. Susan Boyle from Britain’s Got Talent, Rod Stewart, Kylie Minogue, Mariah Carey Westlife, Mika, Michael Buble, Miley Cyrus, James Blunt, Jon Bon Jovi, James Morrison, Westlife’s Shane Filan and Mark Feehily.

- Download "We are the World 25 for Haiti- Single" from iTunes.

This is the song you know and love from the 80s remixed and recorded by 80 artists for the 25th anniversary of the first We Are the World effort.

Now you have 2 new tracks on your playlist to enjoy. Link to this post and encourage others to help out with the relief effort.

And don't forget to drop me a comment and let me know what you think of the tracks.

I know, I know...

It's been far too long since I posted.

Work has had me insane but my dear friend Edie inspired me to share a this song with you which always makes me smile and miss my time in TN.
