. . .Who Lady Gaga is and why she is so popular?
I was not impressed by her performance at the MTV Video Music Awards.
Nor am I inclined to listen to her music. And buy it.

Power to commercial jingles!
I am officially addicted to commercial jingles.
My latest favorite is "Power" by the Temptations. I admit, however, that I had never heard of this funky song until I heard it as a jingle in advertising for Blackberry's Playbook.
I am in love with the vocal bass. The beat is just rockin'. The lyrics are fun. The message is clear.
I am aware of the Temptations. I have never fully been aware of their music. I am wide awake now. I plan for "Power" to be my third commercial jingle-inspired download on iTunes.
Play it commercial jingles! Play it Temptations!

Let it out
Over the course of the past month, I have experienced a roller coaster of shattered and elated emotions directly resulting from stress I no longer can control or resolve.
"Shout" is the perfect musical therapy for such a mental state as mine. Every once in awhile in life, a person just has to let it all out. Scream, shout. . .get the steam out of one's head and mind.
So. Enjoy the lyrics and sound of "Shout" by Tears for Fears. Enjoy this song as therapy or enjoy this song for musical interest.
Always remember to play it when music is the only way.

DD Universe in Second Life
I have never visited Second Life. I now know of DD Universe on Second Life.
I recently read Katy Krassner's blog on DD.com and she was more than thrilled in her description of the unique world created for the online world. Her words and opinions were rich and inviting for those reading to visit too.
I have always thought kindly of Katy Krassner and I will always be in love with Duran Duran, but their universe on this earth is enough for me. A DD Universe in cyberspace is overwhelming.
I realize of course that I should create a free account with Second Life. But why? What does Second Life and DD Universe have to offer? Is the virtual world better than the one I am living in now? Is virtual reality more sound than present reality?
I am not convinced. If one Duran Duran fan can prove me otherwise, I will join DD Universe on Second Life.

Happy Belated Birthday, Nick Rhodes
On June 8, 1962, the world welcomed Nicholas James Bates.
No one could guess at that time that he would rise amongst five others into the stratosphere, far beyond his Planet Earth.
In 49 years, Nick Rhodes has reached up for his sunrise. Yet somehow, he and all others of Duran Duran still leave us wondering What Happens Tomorrow.
With age well concealed, I say Happy Belated Birthday, Nicholas James Bates.
