The Grammys: Wrap Up

Did you all watch the Grammys last night? Of course I had to tune in as there were many musical collaborations in the line up. My favorite (by far!) was Carole King and Sara Bareilles’ duet of “Beautiful Brave”. King is most known for her Song of the Year from the 70’s “You’ve Got a Friend” in which she was the first woman to receive the award. Enjoy the duet.

Pink Glove Dance

Well today marks the last day of Breast Cancer Awareness Month.  And it’s Halloween.  Happy Halloween! Any cute costumes this year?

A friend of mine told me about this video, so of course I had to check it out.  This month you may have seen pink cleats on many NFL players, pink ribbons on lapels, and now…pink gloves at the Providence St. Vincent Medical Center in Portland, Oregon.  They got their ENTIRE team involved in this video. And, boy, does it look like a good time, supporting a great cause.

Children’s Hospital Performs “Roar”

I found this video this morning and had to share it with you. Notice how the children smile, their eyes glimmer.  Notice how the staff look at each other, and laugh when they make a mistake. Notice the men in suits. Notice the connection between nurses and patients. Notice that they are in a hospital, yet experiencing a positive experience through music.

 

What an inspirational video.  I hope you take the few minutes to watch.
