Thom, really? I didn't know you had to, lol! She's also one of my faves and I don't care about what people are fussing about. I just love the beat here.

Yeah, Desiderata. Good luck to us all :-)
Peggy said…
I didn't know what all the fuss was about either. Yawn, I still love her and she can still sing!
Thanks Hazel,
Hazel said…
Hi Peggy, maybe because the fuss wasn't directed at people our age, but those under 18 :D
Jewel said…

Just like Thom, I had to Google it to find out what all the hub-bub was behind She Bop. How did I not know that? I grew up with Cyndi Lauper, but I guess I was very naive. Wow. I guess girls really do just want to have fun! Nice. LOL ;-)

Thanks for the MM shout-out! You're a star! :-)

I love Cindi Lauper, but I haven't heard this one in forever. Very cool. Thanks for sharing. I have a musical meme also. Hope you can stop by and maybe sign in my linky to share your song. Rock on! Following you!

The only thing with the iPhone is that once you’ve put your iPod, camera and phone on one thing, if one thing breaks it is all at the shop. :)

Fun choice :D Very upbeat for a Monday (& just what I needed)
Hazel said…
Alrighty, Dolly. Thanks for the invitation.
Hazel said…
That's true, Bud. It is indeed something to consider. Thanks for adding that up.
Hazel said…
ArtSnark, I'm glad you got what you needed :)
Ebie said…
Controversial or not, Cindi L at her age still rocks!
Hazel said…
Oh, she does. Saw her on youtube recently doing a quick interview. She still looks... Cyndi :)

Hallelujah Chorus: stand or sit?

According to legend, King George II of England rose to his feet when the Hallelujah Chorus was sung. Following protocol his subjects rose up as well. Thus began the tradition of audiences around the world rising during the Hallelujah performace. There are many speculations as to why the king stood or if he even stood at all. The Bangkok Combined Choir is composed of volunteer singers of around twenty nationalities. Every year in December, the choir performs Handel's Messiah. I sang once. (pure luck: there was no audition in 2000) Rehearsals got me thinking of the tradition of standing when the Hallelujah Chorus is sang. I googled what people have to say and my today is a list of opinions about audience decorum during the chorus: 1. The Hallelujah Chorus is like an anthem for the church. Whenever you hear it you are supposed to stand up. 2. Standing for the Hallelujah Chorus just interrupts the performance. 3. People should not be taught that they need to stand up at a certain time ...

Regency delight and love language

Friday's Fave Five: Regency Period Cake Please scroll down for Mommy Moments Ambience of Banana Leaf Restaurant dinners continue to be the trend for us this week. Rustic charm has always been a big hit to me and Banana Leaf's got it. Buckets of real wheat, garlic and pumpkin hang adorning the wall. Plus the sweet and sour fish and chicken with cashew nuts and mushroom are a real pleasure. J Lo Live This was a gift to me two years ago. Cj is too young to be choosy with scents. He smiles playfully when I spray it on him and I laugh inwardly thinking he is a boy wearing a girl's perfume. This week we both smell the same :) Cyberbanking I finally dragged documents and myself down K Bank to register for online financial transactions. Spending only what I earn suits me best as I avoid debts and the convenience of sorting expenses any time of day in familiar surrounding is always welcome.
