Historia de Un Letrero

Más Obamistas!

Eso Macha! ( Yo sabía que en el fondo no éramos tan distintas!)

;)

Yo le admiro a los artistas que se comprometen con causas políticas, eso de no estar calculando si pierden una "cuota de mercado", que no se escudan en el snobismo de "esos temas terrenales no me interesan, son demasiado poco intrascendentes para mi, la política es para la plebe". Me gustan los artistas y las artistas que se arriesgan, que son ante todo humanos, humanas...gente como cualquiera. Que tienen esa humildad.

Y de Obama me llena mucho de esperanza que haya podido ir sumando y sumando a gente tan distinta, tan diversa...porque de eso se trata ¿ No? de sumarnos, sumarnos, sumarnos, cada vez más.

Qué bonito.

Mientras el azar siga encaprichado....

....Al menos yo, seguiré llena de fé y esperanza. Felíz de estar viva.
Ella es Noa. Es de Israel. A mi me encanta. El no necesita presentación.
De las canciones de Serrat, esta es una de mis preferidas . Me llena de amor....el año pasado cuando Serrat la cantó el 4 de marzo en Ojo de Agua...fue para mi la mejor manera de celebrar mi encuentro con mi más grande amor hasta ese momento. Celebré haber sido amada, celebré mi capacidad de amar. Mi amor que es UNO y permanece.

Hoy...de manera extraña, misteriosa... abro mi página de Hi 5 y me aparece de sorpresa allí el video. Yo no lo subí. No tengo idea cómo se metió allí. Pero me parece un regalo, un milagro...y es que sé que el amor es tenaz y siempre, siempre vuelve a salir con el sol, y mientras tengamos capacidad de amar en nuestros corazones, y los brazos abiertos para recibir lo que la vida nos traiga, con agradecimiento y gozo...el milagro del azar seguirá encaprichado....por suerte!
Qué belleza.
Qué cosa más curiosa. Pero qué bonita.

Ni vos ni yo, de Bernardo Quesada

La tristeza puede generar belleza. Es lo humano. Gracias Ber, gracias Tavo. Qué bonito! Me hacen llorar. Qué triste que les quedó, pero qué hermoso.

Aleluya...el poder de una canción

A Francesca:














Hallelujah es una de las canciones más cantadas de Leonard Cohen, canadiense. Es el que canta con el coro. No sabía cantar , no le gustaba actuar en público y se convirtió en el cantante de los cantantes...demasiado!

Acá una versión de la letra, tal cual la cantó Cohen en un concierto...pero como se nota arriba, cada quien la canta como quiera y le da el orden que quiere...en you tube hay versiones en alemán, en húngaro...es increíble...una belleza...más si se toma en cuenta que Cohen está vivo, es un señor de como 70 años que todavía canta.


Baby I've been here before
I know this room, I walked this floor
I used to live alone here before I knew ya
Yeah and I've seen your flag on the marble arch
But listen love; love is not some kind of victory march
No it's a cold and it's a very broken Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

There was a time you let me know
What's really going on below
Ah but now you never show it to me, do ya?
Well but I remember, yeah, when I moved in you
And the holy dove; she was moving too
Yes and every single breath that we drew was Hallelujah


Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

Maybe there's a God above
As for me; all I ever seem to learn from love
Is how to shoot at someone who out-drew ya
Yeah, but it's not a complaint that you hear tonight
It's not the laughter of someone who
claims to have seen the light
No, it's a cold and it's a very lonely Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah

I did my best, it wasn't much
I couldn't feel, so I learned to touch
I've told the truth; I didn't come
all this way to fool ya
Yeah and even though it all went wrong
I'll stand right here before the lord of song
with nothing on my tongue but Hallelujah

Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah
Hallelujah, Hallelujah..

Gracias, Gaby...por recordarme esta mañana esta canción.
Les recomiendo probar a poner play a todas al mismo tiempo...y cerrar los ojos.

El Vestido Nuevo

Mario tiene un sueño. Sergi Pérez lo cuenta en
un video lleno de ternura.

De los cortometrajes de El País, de España.

Sigo en la lloradera

4 p.m.

"La tierra no nos pertenece, ella es nuestra dueña"
Un señor divino que vive en el medio de "la nada" ( que para él es su familia, el todo) en Australia.

"El amor es la fuerza más revolucionaria que hay"
Una señora entusiasta que trabaja con jóvenes miembros de pandillas en Ecuador

Una organización que hace videos y los distribuye gratuitamente a todo el que quiera divulgarlos...Se trata de Global Oneness Project, es la Unicidad Global.

La verdad sigo llorando de la emoción, siento que me estoy nutriendo de mucha esperanza. A eso vine.
Muy lindo. Todo va de lo más bonito.

The Yes We Can Song
by will.i.am

I was sitting in my recording studio watching the debates...
Torn between the candidates

I was never really big on politics...
and actually I’m still not big on politics...
but 4 years ago, me and the black eyed peas supported Kerry...
And we supported Kerry with all our might...
We performed and performed and performed for the DNC...
doing all we could do to get the youth involved...

The outcome of the last 2 elections has saddened me...
on how unfair, backwards, upside down, unbalanced, untruthful,
corrupt, and just simply, how wrong the world and "politics" are...

So this year i wanted to get involved and do all i could early...

And i found myself torn...
because this time it’s not that simple...
our choices aren’t as clear as the last elections ...
last time it was so obvious...
Bush and war
vs
no Bush and no war...

But this time it’s not that simple...
and there are a lot of people that are torn just like i am...

So for awhile I put it off and i was going to wait until it was decided for me...

And then came New Hampshire...

And i was captivated...

Inspired...

I reflected on my life...
and the blessings I have...
and the people who fought for me to have these rights and blessings...

and I’m not talking about a "black thing"
I’m talking about a "human thing" me as a "person"
an American...

That speech made me think of Martin Luther King...
Kennedy...
and Lincoln...
and all the others that have fought for what we have today...

what America is "supposed" to be...

freedom...
equality...
and truth...

and thats not what we have today...
we think we are free...
but in reality terror and fear controls our decisions...

this is not the America that our pioneers and leaders fought and
died for...

and then there was New Hampshire

it was that speech...
like many great speeches...
that one moved me...
because words and ideas are powerful...

It made me think...
and realize that today we have "very few" leaders...
maybe none...

but that speech...

it inspired me...
it inspired me to look inside myself and outwards towards the world...
it inspired me to want to change myself to better the world...
and take a "leap" towards change...
and hope that others become inspired to do the same...
change themselves..
change their greed...
change their fears...
and if we "change that"
"then hey"..
we got something right...???...

1 week later after the speech settled in me...
I began making this song...
I came up with the idea to turn his speech into a song...
because that speech effected and touched my inner core like nothing in a very long time...

it spoke to me...

because words and ideas are powerful...

I just wanted to add a melody to those words...
I wanted the inspiration that was bubbling inside me to take over...

so i let it..

I wasn't afraid to stand for something...
to stand for "change"...
I wasn't afraid of "fear"...
it was pure inspiration...

so I called my friends...
and they called their friends...
in a matter of 2 days...
We made the song and video...

Usually this process would take months...
a bunch of record company people figuring out strategies and release dates...
interviews...
all that stuff...
but this time i took it in my own hands...
so i called my friends sarah pantera, mike jurkovac, fred goldring, and jesse dylan to help make it happen...
and they called their friends..
and we did it together in 48 hours...
and instead of putting it in the hands of profit we put it in the hands of inspiration...

then we put it on the net for the world to feel...

When you are truly inspired..
magic happens...
incredible things happen...
love happens..
(and with that combination)

"love, and inspiration"

change happens...

"change for the better"
Inspiration breeds change...

"Positive change"...

no one on this planet is truly experienced to handle the obstacles we face today...
Terror, fear, lies, agendas, politics, money, all the above...
It’s all scary...

Martin Luther King didn't have experience to lead...
Kennedy didn't have experience to lead...
Susan B. Anthony...
Nelson Mandela...
Rosa Parks...
Gandhi...
Anne Frank...
and everyone else who has had a hand in molding the freedoms we have and take for granted today...

no one truly has experience to deal with the world today...

they just need "desire, strength, courage ability, and passion" to change...
and to stand for something even when people say it's not possible...

America would not be here "today" if we didn’t stand and fight for
change "yesterday"...
Everything we have as a "people" is because of the "people" who fought for
change...
and whoever is the President has to realize we have a lot of changing to do

I'm not trying to convince people to see things how i do...
I produced this song to share my new found inspiration and how I've been moved...
I hope this song will make you feel...
love...
and think...
and be inspired just like the speech inspired me...

that’s all...



Let's all come together like America is supposed to...
Like Japan did after Hiroshima...

that was less than 65 years ago...
and look at Japan now...

they did it together...
they did it...

"We can't?...

Are you serious..?..

WE CAN!!!

Yes we can...
A United "America"
Democrats, Republicans and Independents together...
Building a new America

We can do it...
"TOGETHER"
