I tweeted last night::
"A PIG INSIDE
Lady Gaga singing just like I say about #YouAreBeautiful
So many feel a pig inside
#iTunesFestival
You are not what you feel."
I don't know anything about Lady GAGA.
I guess I have heard songs on the radio
and picked up her extreme dress images on TV/Magazines.
Sheila-Joy came around last night.
Full of enthusiasm because the iTunes Festival, in London for 3 weeks,
was streaming a whole range of free concerts on iPhone and Apple TV etc.
I am interested in seeing some of these bands.
GAGA was in talkie form as I watched her live with Joy and MrsBeautiful.
Talking about a song she had composed about being a PIG INSIDE
(pause I will just look up the lyrics)
Done that - posting at the foot of this with a rehearsal vid.
She said something about her feelings
of having a pig inside.
'Disgusting' - she said.
This all fits my emotional deprivation/intelligence spouting.
I am am passionate about all this 'emotions inside' stuff.
My favourite book of all time from long ago::
'Why am I afraid to tell you who I am' by John Powell.
(The real title is on the back cover of the book::
'Why am I afraid to tell you who I am, because if I tell you who I am,
and you don't like who I am,
that is all I have' )
WOW
An early introduction to social emotional and spiritual recognition.
The book has helped me so much.
I have been exploring all this because
it helps me understand my own interior and those of others.
My recent workshop at Greenbelt was all about this stuff.HERE
'You are a beautiful Human Person' - all about this.
GAGA seemed to be letting it all out truthfully in performance.
How she covers up 'the pig inside' with all her extreme clothes
and her behaviour I guess, to hide the PIG INSIDE.
Interesting.
You are beautiful.
You are not how you feel.
Feelings can change with the wind.
They are important.
They are signals BUT
THEY ARE NOT
who we are.
We are not what the scales say
what the mirror says
our comparison with so called 'models'
or how we feel about our regrettable behaviour
or our regrettable hurting relationships -
it is all about knowing our uniqueness
and the volume of our soul
that makes us beautiful.
NOT a PIG inside.
Now the LYRICS - my first time view::
I know, I know, I Annotate know, I know you want meYou're just a pig inside a human bodySquealer, squealer, squeal out, you're so disgusting!You're just a pig inside...swine.
Purgent, don't think I want hear another (not another word)
You're just a hater, moan, just trying to act real special
(but deep down you're just a shrewd)Maybe I should have a little more just to stay out of my mindCause it's when I'm not thinking with you that I act like a swine!
Payback, how much will I ask you, squealer? (let your body jiggle)
let me make it a little quicker (it's the thrill of ecstasy)
Maybe I should have a little more just to stay out of my mind?
Cause it's when I'm not thinking' with you that I act like a swine!
Act like a swine! Act like a swine!
That's here talking to herself.
Sad - but I like her honesty last night.
It may help many who see themselves as disgusting.
you are beautiful.
