...The First

Yesterday Derek [hit the name to follow him on Twitter btw] asked me, what was the first song I fell in love with....GREAT question....

So I went as far back as I could remember in my musical life, and landed on thee gospel song. Even as a child I felt the message and power of the lyrics, and the lead singer makes sure you feel it too. I first heard the song in church and my God mother always sang the lead. She sounds just like the recording but better and every time she did it made me cry....to this day if I listen to the song I have to play it twice.

you'll be happy you did....

in the meanwhile the song I'm talking about is Order My Steps by the Georgia Mass Woman's (GWMA) Choir

...Favorite Song Of The Moment

...been on an honesty kick, because that's all I want people to be with me. With too many situations that could've been avoided or easily fixed if used, I find it to be the best thing for everyone. I have the logic I'd rather have hurt feelings/a bruised ego hearing the truth than have a head capped up with a bunch of lies or half truths.

On a relationship kick, sometimes people tend to withhold the truth or feelings in general in fears of the repercussions or backlash of said feelings. Then the other party's mind is free to wander because of a lack of direction....kinda the flow of one of my favorite Jill Scott songs....besides the message I adore her entire Jazz transformation mid song...

And so it seems that you’re hiding something from me
And that ain’t the way my sweet
I’m loving you
But I get confused
And what makes me fear
When your personality is unclear
I make things up in my mind

...Fav Song Of The Moment

...sooo I'm late as hell, but I usually am when it comes to whole CD's [unless its an all time fav]. I'm JUST NOW listening to Ne-Yo's "Year of the Gentleman" and I now have a new song to love. My friend at work kept singing one part, so he just brought the CD in and played it and I haven't stopped listening to it atleast once a day...guess I can relate on both sides, the downer and the ''lifes too short to cry, lets go out" person. My song of the moment "So You Can Cry"...enjoy
