Music is my Therapy

HAPPY HEAVENLY BIRTHDAY TO THE LEGENDARY, ICONIC, UNDISPUTED KING OF POP,  MICHAEL JACKSON!!! 👑🐐🖤 Today would have been Michael's 64th birthday had he still been here. He was so young, too young, to be gone so soon. 💔 🕊 I have been listening to Michael pretty much non-stop all month long! His music is immortal! Forever catchy and instantly recognizable yet still sounds fresh and new every time I hear it; it never gets old! The man was a genius! His creative mind was a force to be reckoned with! His voice is perfection; he can do it all, rock, pop, soul, funk, ballad. He can be as fierce and intense as a panther or as sweet and gentle as a dove. The greatest dancer, his every move was perfectly smooth and precise! He floated across the stage! No one can hit it exactly on the beat like Mike! An innovator who revolutionized and changed the way we hear and see music, video and dance! He was not only the GREATEST ENTERTAINER WHO EVER LIVED, he was the greatest HUMANITARIAN! ...

Song: Blues Away  Artist: The Jacksons  The final "29 on the 29th" song 😰 In little less than two weeks, my 20's will be gone.  I'd like to be yours Tomorrow So I'm giving you some time To think it over today, but  You can't take my blues away No matter what you say, hey You can't take my blues away No matter what you say What you say, hey, babe Hey, babe What's your thinking No darlin' It won't, won't change my mind But you can't take my blues away Now tell me what you say, babe You can't take my blues away No matter what you say What you say, hey, babe This way I feel I know that's it's true Because it's for you You know that it's true But you try to be Hard to resist I ask what it's for You know you close the door (No no, no no) Yeah (No no, no no) Tell me what you say, babe Say, yeah, babe You can't take my blues away Tell me what you say What you say, yeah, babe I've got the power Doin' it out ...

R a i n b o w B r i d g e R e m e m b r a n c e D a y I didn't get to commemorate today as I would have liked. I feel like I failed him in a way. I wanted to listen to my music that makes me think of him and spend more time looking through pictures and videos. My sister and I went on a walk/hike down one of our old favorite trails. That trail. So many, many memories of walking it with my boy. As we made our way to the trail, just walking through the neighborhood brought back special memories of walking with my sweet puppy. His favorite places to stop at, thinking about the decorations certain houses have had throughout the years during the holidays. It's grown a lot; the trees and plants. Never really noticed that until this year. The only time I go on walks is if I'm with a family member; so they're not very often. I still haven't gone alone. It still hurts too much to even try. So I guess that was one good way of remembering him today. I also saw two little but...

This is my third NEW ALBUM Listening Party in the past four months! I have been blessed with a ton of new music from three of my top five favorite artists (not to mention discovering some major "new" favorites from the ultimate artist himself, MJ! Coming soon...)! It helps bring some light to the darkness of my life. Today, I am listening to and giving a live song-by-song reaction to the Goo Goo Dolls new album Chaos in Bloom ! Let's GOO! 😉 Yeah, I Like You - Such a fun jam! This was the first single released last month. For a more in-depth "review" of my first impression for this song click here . War - I like the lyrics of this song but...it isn't doing much for me. It's just fine. That's all I can really say about it. Save Me From Myself - I have high hopes for this one from the name alone! Whoa, the beginning verses totally threw me off! I thought it was maybe Robbie singing but then Johnny comes roaring in - with his undeniable voice - wh...
