This morning's Musical DLG ™ (Download from God ™ ) called, 'So What' by Pink (Alecia Moore) is one of my fave Pink songs. I have always enjoyed her music because of her Miss Independent, Miss Understood and Miss-Kiss-It-Right-Here attitude and approach to Life. By the way, one of her albums is called, "M!ssunderstood" with the exclamation point where you see it in the spelling. She is as rebellious as I have always felt but certainly more rebellious than I have even been. Still, I relate to her.
This morning I had to dive straight into a handful of 15 minute readings with the other side of the world on SKYPE and then sit down write a few charts before stopping on this page to write about today's Musical DLG ™ . What I find so interesting about the timing of this writing is I will usually turn on the TV in my office and mute it while I'm writing. If I see something interesting then I will un-mute and listen. Since I had left my TV on the Biography Channel yesterday then that was the channel that was on. And there it was, the biography on Pink. Well how do you like that? I wake up to a Musical DLG ™ by Pink and then her biography comes on as confirmation. As I always say, "When it's the Truth, it shows up everywhere."
I believe we are all creative where we are motivated and inspired to action by things that scratch our bone. While watching Pink's biography she had made the comment (I'm paraphrasing here) that now that she had free reign to do her own thing it was a bit uninspiring. Pink thrived on throwing wrenches, wreaking havoc and rebelling against the slightest 'no'. She broke away from the mold that her producer (L.A. Reid) had in mind for her and proved herself on her own terms, even shocking him. By the way, you may recognize L.A. Reid from the X Factor.
This brings me to this morning's Musical DLG ™ . Pink had taken the experience of trouble in paradise with her husband Cary Hart (Motorcross rider and 'Inked' star) and channeled it into this song. This wasn't done in such a mean and vindictive way as the song sounds because she actually called Cary to be in the video, which you will see him in the video below. When Pink sings, "I wanna start a fight" she's basically looking for a way to channel the energy. Interestingly enough, they were reunited after this song and recently became proud parents. My point is not their relationship or how long you will continue to bash your ex before you finally shut up about your ex and do something productive with that energy. After all, you picked him/her. Enough already! My point is the creative channeling process. No matter what challenging situation you find yourself in this very minute, there is always a way creative way to manipulate and twist the experience into something workable, manageable and Good. Always!
The lyrics to the song are posted below the video.
Na na na na na na na na na na na na [x2]
I guess I just lost my husband,
I don't know where he went,
So I'm gonna drink my money,
I'm not gonna pay his rent,
I got a brand new attitude and
I'm gonna wear it tonight,
I wanna get in trouble,
I wanna start a fight,
na na na na na na na I wanna start a fight,
na na na na na na na I wanna start a fight
[Chorus:]
So, so what
I'm still a rock star,
I got my rock moves,
And I don't need you,
And guess what,
I'm having more fun,
And now that we’re done,
I'm gonna show you tonight,
I'm alright,
I'm just fine,
And you're a tool,
So, so what,
I am a rock star,
I got my rock moves,
And I don't want you tonight.
(Uh check my flow, aw)
The waiter just took my table,
And gave it to Jessica Simps (shit!),
I guess I'll go sit with drum boy,
At least he'll know how to
,
What if this song's on the radio,
then somebody's gonna die,
I'm gonna get in trouble,
My ex will start a fight,
na na na na na na na he's gonna start a fight,
na na na na na na na we're all gonna get in a fight!
[Chorus:]
You weren't there,
You never were,
You want it all,
But that's not fair,
I gave you life,
I gave my all,
You weren't there,
You let me fall
[Chorus:]
No, no, no, no
I don't want you tonight,
You weren't there,
I'm gonna show you tonight,
I'm alright,
And you're a tool,
And your a tool,
So, so what,
I am a rock star,
I got my rock moves,
And I don't want you tonight!
