More reflections on the MESSAGE

If the words that define my message are
  • Destiny (and calling).
  • Dreams (and Vision).
  • Difference(Change for the better).
  • Depth
  • Divine
WHAT SORT OF MUSIC WOULD I WRITE? STYLISTICALLY AND LYRICALLY?

I want to add one more word. DANCE. In that word, I want to convey being ALIVE. Not dead and dabbling with the shallow waters of life. But LIVING. Feeling love, pain, suffering, joy, esctasy..all KEENLY. Ah. I found the word PASSION!!!

Probably not bubblegum pop. Maybe not old-school, straight ahead jazz. Nothing particularly hedonistic or club-by. African-American gospel tinge? Maybe. Soul? Accoustic stuff? Still thinking. Still love the liveliness of Latin music. Would welcome suggestions. Man....this is difficult.

Love Alicia...but....

I've loved Alicia Keys since I was a teenager. She's gorgeous, talented, with an impeccable image of ghetto funkiness plus classy elegance. Love her voice and love her ideas. But....the lyrics....have more often than not been ...disappointing. I do think this article provides accurate critique of her work.

There is still a chance for the 71,849 single men

I opened my facebook profile and LO and BEHOLD, I saw a string of comments, wall comments and msgs in my inbox congratulating me about my 'not-single anymore status'. Why? Because I decided to remove the 'single' listing on my Facebook profile. I merely didn't want to post it up anymore. A whim that resulted in... HILARIOUSNESS! Here are a couple of samples: "Charis has been woozy since thursday, is it luvvve??" "huh? o_O? is there something i don't know??" "so when u going to belanja us all makan??? >. "heh.... really!?....there are 71,849 single men in brisbane who will be very dissapointed... very.." "is this for real .. if so, congrats charis :-)" "Hey great news to hear, Congrats loh! By the way who is the lucky Guy?" " Hey. No longer single? Share some news. ;) " Man o man!
