iLoVeIt: Musicals

Christmas-time is the most acceptable time for random singing especially in movies. I like musicals preferably the comedic kind and ♫these are a few of my favorite ones♪.

 Wizard of Oz (1939)


An American in Paris (1951)


Singing in the Rain (1952)


Seven Wives for Seven Sons (1954)


Guys and Dolls (1955)



West Side Story (1961)

 
My Fair Lady (1964)


Mary Poppins (1964)


Sound of Music (1965)


Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)


Little Shop of Horrors (1986)


The Muppets Christmas Carol (1992)


Sister Act (1992)


Sister Act: Back in the Habit (1993)


Rodger and Hammerstein's Cinderella (1997)


Alice in Wonderland (1999)


Annie (1999)


Chicago (2002)


Hairspray (1988 & 2007)




The latest musical to hit the big screen is Les Misérables. I really liked the 1998 version and am looking forward to this new rendition. I really like the song Anne Hathaway sings in the trailer and I love the fact that the songs weren't pre-recorded then lipsynced (that's my pet peeve with newer musicals; all that auto-tune makes the song unauthentic).



Have a very Merry Christmas Eve!!

Pursuit of Purity: Trip Lee and the Mowry's

Image
January last year I told the good news from Rebecca St. James, Tia and Tamera Mowry. Now I have more good news to share!! I choose to share good news from the men and women in popularity who have chosen to attempt to live a godly life. lol I try to find people who will encourage believers in their pursuit of purity. Christian rap artist, Trip Lee of Reach Records with his wife, Jessica are having a baby!! YAY!! Trip Lee revealed in his song "Good Thing" that he and his wife is expecting a little one after much prayer. Trip Lee and his wife married at age 21 and 22. After being asked so many times why they married so young they wrote their answers out for everyone to see. Trip's Perspective Yesterday I made a late night stop at the store to grab a few things and I had a very interesting conversation with the cashier. We made small talk as she scanned my items, and then she offered me a discount card but I told her my wife already had one. That’s when th

Single Ladies

Image
As Stacie Orrico sang, "There's gotta be more to life than chasing down every temporary high to satisfy me." You want to know why we're so desperate for companionship? The tv, the songs, media is feeding us a horrible message that if you're not in a relationship you're not living life truly, you can't be happy nor satisfied. I say without Christ you can't be truly satisfied. There's this new show coming out this summer called Single Ladies... They shouldn't have titled the show Single Ladies because they sure don't want to be single nor are they acting like ladies. How about Desperate Women?!! Come on!! Is that what being Single is all about? Looking for someone to change your status to taken?!    I like Queen Latifah but she could have done better than this- A black "Sex in the City"? The trailer (I do not advise kids to watch this. It has a sex scene and swearing): http://www.vh1.com/video/misc/612708/single-ladies-tr

PSA: My Generation!!

Image
  If you say you're not a follower you most likely are. To my generation I see people constantly trying to speak unification of the world but hate those whose views oppose their own. They say older adults and children are drones yet look at your choices, you're no different. You think you're above the masses? Hey you maybe different from your neighbor and friends but there's someone out there who's influenced your decision to be so very "different". Assess your choices. Adults are dumb? "When you grow up your heart dies"?   Every teen generation ahead of your own (especially the 60s) thought they were smarter than everyone. Some (not all) adults got the memo that life isn't all about pleasure. Life isn't all about art, music and love. If you want to own something, you're faced with Uncle Sam the Tax man and all other little fees placed on you. If you have kids, your heart walks around in a little body that you try desperately to
