Saw Melissa Etheridge's new video for her single Message to Myself on LOGO yesterday. I really liked it. It had her band, kids, wife, and just a lot of neat things in it. I am a little biased, as you all know, so I can't help myself. lol

Anybody else catch it yet?

Her Lucky CD is my favorite and the first one I listened to by her.

Melissa Ethridge's Yes I Am cd is a favorite of mine, especially this song:

Silent Legacy

Why did you steal the matches

From the one room motel

Once they gave you answers

Now they give you hell

They will never understand

They wonder where did they go wrong

How could you be so selfish

Why can't you get along

And as you pray in your darkness

For wings to set you free

You are bound to your silent legacy

You've seen it in the movies

And you've heard it on the street

Craving the affection

Your blood is full of heat

They don't listen to your reasons

As original as sin

Deny all that you feel

And they will bring you home again

Your body is alive

But no one told you what you'd feel

The empty aching hours

Trying to conceal

The natural progression

Is the coming of your age

But they cover it with shame

And turn it into rage

You are digging for the answers

Until your fingers bleed

To satisfy the hunger

To satiate the need

They feed you on the guilt

To keep you humble keep you low

Some man and myth they made up

A thousand years ago

Mothers tell your children

Be quick you must be strong

Life is full of wonder

Love is never wrong

Remember how they taught you

How much of it was fear

Refuse to hand it down

The legacy stops here

Oh my child...

That is a very powerful song - definitely one of my favorites. That CD has a lot of good stuff on it.

I thought this was me for a long time, Irish.
I like them all, though. The first song I purchased from iTunes was Yes I Am and the second was Ain't It Heavy. Then I just couldn't help myself. I am looking for a demo cd not a promo cd.

I was really drawn to that song when I was in the thick of my drama with my Mom and going through my divorce, it's still a favorite.

iTunes has Message to Myself as a single for sale right now and I almost bought it. I really, really want it, but I will be able to get it in the whole album on Sept. 25. It's killing me, but I think I will wait.

Hee! Hee! I'm holding out for the album, too. :D I bookmarked the link and watched the video twice while I had my morning coffee. :P The music is stuck in my head now. Not a bad thing at all. ;)
