Do you have a “Theme Song?” You know, the song you believe personifies your philosophy of life, contains your mantra, and gives you an immediate lift every time you sing it?
Since the day I heard it, the song “I’m Every Woman” by Chaka Kahn has given me life. I can do it all, be it all, have it all, _______________ it all – you name it, I’m it.
Whelp, sometimes I have to sing that song to myself when I feel down, or tired, or not-quite-as-invincible as I’d like. Tonight is one of those times – not because life sucks right now, but more so because I’m extremely sleep deprived. 🙂
I’m going to let the imitable Chaka Kahn speak for me tonight, and I’ll hit you guys up tomorrow.
(Whitney’s version is pretty sweet, too!)

Karla,
I like that. I tend to be that way when I’m making selections regarding the music I’m going to listen to during my drives. There’s definitely a mood behind the cd or tune I select. Thanks for sharing those – I’m going to use them to make a playlist!
FDLOL! Love it! I can imagine the expression on Bee’s face. (and yes, I pull up next to people like you all the time – hilarious)!
I change songs with the wind. It depends on what I’m doing or how I’m feeling. When I feel frustrated or can’t find a solution to some issue, I like “Primal Scream” by Motley Crue. When I need a boost or shot of confidence, I like “I Won’t Back Down” by Pink. If something has happened and I need to regroup, I like “I’m Still Standing” by Elton John. There’s a different song for everything.
I dont know about a personal theme song, but my song for myself and my beloved Honey Bee is “Drive By” by Train. I sing it to her all the time. OK, I sing almost everything to her.. yes, I am one of those people who sing (usually at the top of my lungs and “dancing”) in the car. you know the ones. you have stopped at a red light beside me… anyway, that song is my “anthem” to her.
