August 2011
Ten years ago we were on an amazing path toward love. The truth was in the music -- Sade had just come to town. And then, as a creative movement, we got derailed. Everything we were about...everything we were on track to be...became dictated by messages of insanity. You thought I was going to say 'war'?
If only it were that simple.
The truth? In the lists.
Best sellers.
The most accurate logs of what we are in the process of becoming
...to express. In art.
Not what we are looking for but what we have found.
(writers, find your rhythm...)
Sade was dancing
in August
at The Garden.
If you were there you know.
You remember.
You could feel the energy in the room, New York, when she sang the words,
"My love is taller, taller than the Empire State...."
We were ready to turn it up in the world with music and art and hope and dreams...
and we were on the verge of a cultural phenomenon called 'renaissance'.
...
We're back on track. I believe. A little older. A little wiser.
But certainly no worse for wear.
Let's pick up where we left off in August. Ten years ago.
The truth is in the lists.
The music.
The technology.
Universal language.
What we are able to do when we become the power of One. Connected.
Heads know how we do. For real.
Anywhere you go, spread it like you be from brooklyn.
One Planet. One people.
Simply...
