A Tribute to Punk Rock Legend Poly Styrene

In the '80's I was pretty big into punk rock. One of my favorite tunes was "Oh Bondage, Up Yours!" by X-Ray Spex. I especially loved the way the tune started, first with a sweet female voice saying "some people think little girls should be seen and not heard....but I think". Then, with all the power you can imagine lead singer, Poly Styrene belted out the words that ring on in the minds of anyone who's ever heard the song: "OH BONDAGE, UP YOURS!". Poly Styrene was one of the few females who made a mark in the punk rock scene. Pioneers like her paved the way for artists such as Madonna, P!nk and Lady Gaga. She passed away on April 25, 2011 at the age of 53 and I wanted to acknowledge her contribution to the music scene and to the lives of many girls and women who have plenty to say but are sometimes too afraid to say it. May this mix bring out the pioneer in me, in you and in anyone who wants to be bold and leave a lasting mark.

Lyrics to What It Feels Like for a Girl by Madonna Silky smooth Lips as sweet as candy, baby Tight blue jeans Skin that shows in patches Strong inside but you don't know it Good little girls they never show it When you open up your mouth to speak Could you be a little weak Chorus Do you know what it feels like for a girl Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl Hair that twirls on finger tips so gently, baby Hands that rest on jutting hips repenting Strong inside but you don't know it Good little girls they never show it When you're trying hard to be your best Could you be a little less Chorus x2 Do you know what it feels like for a girl Do you know what it feels like in this world For a girl ****************************** My most recent step toward my dream of being a T.V. talk show host was to submit an audition video to Oprah.

Madonna Represents Freedom to Be Yourself

This song Nobody Knows Me by Madonna (see concert video on YouTube) pumps me up and gives me the courage to live my life on my own terms. I hope it does the same for you. Nobody Knows Me by Madonna Lyrics I've had so many lives Since I was a child And I realize How many times I've died I'm not that kind of guy Sometimes I feel shy I think I can fly Closer to the sky No one's telling you how to live your life But it's a set up until you're fed up This world is not so kind People trap your mind It's so hard to find Someone to admire I… I sleep much better at night I feel closer to the light Now I'm gonna try To improve my life No one's telling you how to live your life But it's a set up until you're fed up It's no good when you're misunderstood But why should I care? What the world thinks of me Won't let a stranger Give me a social disease Nobody, nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me No one's telling you how to live your life But it's a setup, and I'm just fed up It's no good when you're misunderstood But why should I care? What the world thinks of me Won't let a stranger Give me a social disease I… I sleep much better at night I feel closer to the light Now I'm gonna try To improve my life Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Nobody knows me Like you know me Don't want your social disease Millions of us buy the albums, we crank up the CD's in our car, we go to the concerts but how many of us truly have the courage to live our lives boldly and authentically?
