Grace of My Heart - PAH FEST PRE-RELEASE


This is a title from a movie about the early days of the 50's and 60's relating to the music industry and one of my favorite songs from the movie was "God Give Me Strength" and if you have not seen the movie its a must - the dress suited the title - Grace of My Heart.


Now I have nothing, so God give me strength
'Cause I'm weak in his wake
And if I'm strong I might still breathe
And I don't have anything to share
That I won't throw away into the air
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
He was the light that I'd bless
He took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength
I can't hold onto her, God give me strength
When the phone doesn't ring
And I'm lost in imagining
Everything that kind of love is worth
As I tumble back down to the earth
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
He was the light that I'd bless
He took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength
(Bridge)
God if he'd grant me his indulgence and decline
I might as well, wipe him from my memory
Fracture the spell, as he becomes my enemy
Maybe I was washed out like a lip-print on my shirt
See, I'm only human, I want him to hurt
I want him
want him to hurt
[instrumental]
Since I lost the power to pretend
That there could ever be a happy ending
That song is sung out
This bell is rung out
He was the light that I'd bless
He took my last chance at happiness
So God give me strength, God give me strength

Ain't That Peculiar - UNRELEASED



I have to admit - the flexi skirt is peculiar lol but wow on the sequins! Couldn't have asked for a better in world tranformation of a texture and man, ain't that peculiar? Marvin Gaye sang it better -


Honey you do me wrong but still i'm crazy about you

Stay away too long and i can't do without you

Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more

But each hurt makes my love stronger than before

I know flowers go through rain

But how can love go through pain

Ain't that peculiar

A peculiar ality

Ain't that peculiar baby

Peculiar as can be

You tell me lies that should be obvious to me

I've been so much in love with you baby til i don't wanna see

That things you do and say are designed to make me blue

It's a dog gone shame my love for you makes all

Your lies seem true

But if the truth makes love last longer

Why do lies make my love stronger

Ain't that peculiar

A peculiar ality

Ain't that peculiar baby

Peculiar as can be

I cried so much just like a child thats lost its toy

Maybe baby you think these tears i cry are tears of joy

A child can cry so much until you do everything they say

But unlike a child my tears don't help me to get my way

I know love can last through years

But how can love last through tears



PAH*FEST IS COMING!!! :)

Okies you can see all the releases that will be released on July 14th on my sim and here is the press release for it!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Contact: Candace Lambert, Marketing OfficerEmail: clambert@madonna.edu Telephone: 734-432-5556 In World Contact: Summer Loon

Digital Media Festival at Madonna University Features Filmmaking, Concerts and Events
LIVONIA, Mich. – Hollywood comes to Motown again this summer. The second annual Project Accessible Hollywood (PAH-fest) Motown will take place on the campus of Madonna University on July 14-20. The unique, entirely free, digital media festival travels to cities throughout the U.S. and internationally, giving anyone and everyone an opportunity to take part in movie making. Metro-Detroiters from all walks of life will have access to digital equipment and professional coaching, enabling them to create their own short digital films. PAH-fest is the brainchild of Christopher Coppola, nephew of director Francis Ford Coppola and brother to actor Nicholas Cage. Coppola plans to be on campus again this year.
PAHfest will also be invading the virtual world, incorporating the chat realm “Second Life” into the mix. People from around the globe can now experience PAH like never before, interacting in the virtual world “Detroit Life”. In 2006, Loudbaby launched the city of Detroit within the virtual world of “Second Life”, aptly called "Detroit Life : The Motor City inside The Metaverse." Since the debut of Detroit Life last year, Loudbaby has quickly established itself as a world leader in the production of Mixed Reality Events.
An exciting new addition to PAH-fest this year is a high-tech lunchtime concert Wednesday, July 16, from 12-2 p.m. World-famous European musician, Ridha (Cooljoke) Ibrahim, will perform from his studio in Italy and perform in the world of Detroit Life in Second Life. Madonna will be streaming video of his avatar for this 3D virtual concert. Computers in at Madonna’s Livonia campus will host PAH Disco where online-concert-goers can dance as avatars while enjoying a pizza lunch provided by the University.
The fashion world of Second Life will not go unnoticed as Virtual Clothing Designer Lemania Indigo features a series of clothing made just for PAHfest featuring the “Motown Sound.” She is turning the proceeds of this clothing line back to the PAHfest MOTOWN organizers to help offset the cost of the festival. “Creativity has been a huge part of my life and PAHfest allows other people to express their thoughts, ideas, and feelings all over the world giving them a voice. I am very proud to be part of such a wonderful idea and event,” said Indigo.
Madonna University, Michigan’s most affordable is home to an award-winning Broadcast and Cinema Arts Department. The University’s main campus is conveniently located at I-96 and Levan Road in Livonia. For more information, visit (www.madonna.edu) or www.pahnation.org.

UNRELEASED - Ain't No Mountain High Enough



If you need me, call me. no matter where you are, no matter how far. just call my name. Ill be there in a hurry. on that you can depend and never worry.
(you see, my love is alive its like a seed that only needs the thought of you to grow. so if you feel the need for company, please, my darling, let it be me. I may not be able to express the love I feel for you, but a writer put it very nicely when he was away from the one he loved. He sat down and wrote these words:)

No wind, (no wind) no rain, (no rain)
Nor winters cold
Can stop me, babe (oh, babe) baby (baby)
If youre my goal

No wind, no rain,
Can stop me, babe
If you wanna go

I know, I know you must follow the sun
Wherever it leads
But remember
If you should fall short of your desires
Remember life holds for you one guarantee
Youll always have me

And if you should miss my love
One of these old days
If you should ever miss the arms
That used to hold you so close, or the lips
That used to touch you so tenderly
Just remember what I told you
The day I set you free

Aint no mountain high enough
Aint no valley low enough (say it again)
Aint no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Aint no mountain high enough
Aint no valley low enough (say it again)
Aint no river wild enough
To keep me from you

Aint no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

Aint no mountain high enough
Aint no valley low enough (one more time)
Aint no river wild enough (say it again)
To keep me from you

Aint no mountain high enough
Nothing can keep me
To keep me from you

Lovelight - UNRELEASED PAHFEST


The Supremes again and this dress is hot!

He gave me the eye
But I just passed him by
I treated him unkind
But he didn't seem to mind

I told him be on his way
But not a word did he say
He just stood there kind of bold
While I acted cold

But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realize I should apologize
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart

So I quickly apologized
Hoping he hadn't changed his mind
But not a word did he say
So I turned to walk away

But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realize how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart

When he asked could he walk my way
I hoped sweet things he'd say
Instead he smiled kind of nice
As he held my hand kind of tight

But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realize how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
Then I knew, Oh then I knew
That he won my heart

But when the lovelight starts shining through his eyes
Made me realize how he felt inside
And when he placed a kiss upon my face
