MEETTA TALKS - "STRIP ME"


**To listen to the video music, take these few quick steps first.
First, Click the (play) triangle, (pause it), then click it again. This will get the sound quickly buffered. Wait for a few moments, then it will begin. When you see the red line at the bottom of the video grow dark all the way across, click the play button again and it will play without stopping until the song is completed. After that, if you want to replay, just click the replay and it will begin right away because it's already buffered.

Hey Readers,
Lately, I've been writing about finding your voice and how I found mine.
Often, I find music that echoes or strengthen what I'm saying in my writings as I am moved to post them on my blog. I do this also to entertain you while you read, as well as give you further insight into who I am. In fact all of the music on this site is intended to do that. That's why its such a variety of music. It's funny. As much as my writings cause me to come to life, if you will, so does the music I choose also. When I find a song that is fitting, I'll play them over an over again while I'm typing. It keeps my juices flowing and ideas come to me that way too. It's a real show I tell you.

You should see me, I type to the rhythm! Though not yet an accomplished musician, I use my key pad as my piano. My fingers move very swiftly and to time! The computer keypad is my instrument of choice. Unlike a singer, who uses music and a microphone to get heard, the computer and it's components are apart of what I use to get mine heard. And while the music plays as I am inspired, I move my arms and bounce in my seat. Sometimes, I just go ahead, get up and cut loose, dancing until it's out of me. You should see it Reader! You laugh, but I can really move! (Ha, Ha) Anyway, I tell you what I go through while typing to paint a picture that you can see. I am a very passionate person in what I believe and in what adds life to me. I do so hope that you are as inspired as much as I am, by some of what you read and hear on this site. That's all I have to say really except, Find your voice!
AND DON'T LET ANYONE TAKE IT FROM YOU! Thanks for listening.


"STRIP ME"
Song co-written and performed By Natasha Bedingfield.
From the Movie "Morning Glory" soundtrack

*(Some of my favorite verses, that are closest to me form this song.)

"Every day I fight for my all future somethings.
A thousand little wars I have to choose between....
......
....And if you strip me, strip it all away, what will you find... I'll be alright.
Take what you want....
build me up or cut me down to size,
...Shut me out, but I'll just scream!
"I'm only one voice in a million,
BUT YOU AIN'T TAKING THAT FROM ME!"
You ain't taking that from me. You ain't taking that from me!

"I don't need a microphone to say what I been thinking.
My heart is like a loud speaker that's always on 11
and if you strip me...
strip it all away...I'm still the same...
....
...at the end of the say, it's what you do and say
that makes you who you are....Think about it....
Sometimes all it takes is 1 voice
TAKE WHAT YOU WANT... steal my pride..."
...
but I'll just scream!
I'm only 1 voice in a million!
BUT YOU AIN'T TAKING THAT FROM ME!
No, you ain't taking that from me!
