Lately, I’ve been listening to a lot of party music. For those who have come to know me pretty well, I’m not really a fan of club music. But lately, the lyrics are becoming more meaningful and the beat, more relatable.
Or maybe they always have been, I just never paid attention.
Either way, the music has been giving me the necessary energy to push through midterms and final paper requirements. It has been a pretty tough first quarter. There are days when I regret going to school and working full-time at the same time, but then, there are days when I just need a little extra push.
And this is one of those days.
Did that just perk you up too? What do you often listen to when you need that little extra push?
It’s been years, and I don’t know how often I have to say it, but this song is just perfect. It never fails to hit me to the core, make me feel like a woman, and the voice quality… OH WOW. It’s just perfect.

Are you ready? You should be.
My hands are tied / My body bruised / She got me with nothing to win / And nothing left to lose
Now, that’s a song.
‘Nuff said.
