"You Inspire Me To Be The Higher Me..."

Shheeeeeee’ssssss baccckkk! Hola my wonderful readers, I’m BACK in 2010 with plans of really taking The Real Sidney Shaw to the NEXT LEVEL….but of course I need your support. I have a few ideas that I’m going to test out for this week and I need people to let me know if they are liking them or not. Leave or comment or email me. I appreciate all of my readers and I PROMISE I won’t let you down this time. Updates will be VERY VERY frequent… Without further a due …


I absolutely LOVE Lauryn Hill she’s one of my FAVORITE singers, and this is my absolute favorite Lauryn

Hill song ever.(I don't only like her because we share the same name and spelling) This song came out WAAAAYYY back when MTV was still playing real music, and when they had HOT shows like MTV Unplugged. I remember getting this DVD and this album when I was like 8th grade as a Christmas present but not really appreciating it because these weren’t any of the songs from “The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill”

I was randomly listening to Pandora (thank goodness for Pandora!!) and I heard “I Gotta Find Peace of Mind” and I started crying (okay I’m a SAP!) because the message in this song is so powerful. Especially at the 8 minute mark when Lauryn starts crying mid song. The song is AMAZING. If it wasn’t for this song my last end of the year 2009 would have been #terrible (I know too much Twitter all bad).

I LOVE and ADMIRE this woman because she truly is an artist who has nothing but pure talent. I wish the music industry was fool of more people who made beautiful, meaningful music as such. I’m so ready for Lauryn to release another project because this one was great. Any other favorite songs from this album? Lemme know…leave a comment or email me!

*Monday will be “music Monday” where I showcase some of my favorite songs, songs that get heavy rotation on my iTunes or even some new songs that I’m feeling. If you have any suggestions let me know!
