Man In Black-Johnny Cash

"Man in Black" released in March 1971.

Lyrics:

Well, you wonder why I always dress in black,
Why you never see bright colors on my back,
And why does my appearance seem to have a somber tone.
Well, there's a reason for the things that I have on.

I wear the black for the poor and the beaten down,
Livin' in the hopeless, hungry side of town,
I wear it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime,
But is there because he's a victim of the times.

I wear the black for those who never read,
Or listened to the words that Jesus said,
About the road to happiness through love and charity,
Why, you'd think He's talking straight to you and me.

Well, we're doin' mighty fine, I do suppose,
In our streak of lightnin' cars and fancy clothes,
But just so we're reminded of the ones who are held back,
Up front there ought 'a be a Man In Black.

I wear it for the sick and lonely old,
For the reckless ones whose bad trip left them cold,
I wear the black in mournin' for the lives that could have been,
Each week we lose a hundred fine young men.

And, I wear it for the thousands who have died,
Believen' that the Lord was on their side,
I wear it for another hundred thousand who have died,
Believen' that we all were on their side.

Well, there's things that never will be right I know,
And things need changin' everywhere you go,
But 'til we start to make a move to make a few things right,
You'll never see me wear a suit of white.

Ah, I'd love to wear a rainbow every day,
And tell the world that everything's OK,
But I'll try to carry off a little darkness on my back,
'Till things are brighter, I'm the Man In Black.

Just 4 more days until Oprah's "Own" launches!

There's no question Oprah Winfrey is one of the most powerful  and admired women in this world. Her never ending efforts, generosity, and outstanding dedication, have taken Oprah to where she is at today: on every single corner of this world. And now, the world is eagerly and anxiously anticipating Own, the new Oprah Winfrey network that launches on January 1st, 2011. In my opinion, this date was perfectly picked for many  inspiring reasons. To me, Oprah is a woman that symbolizes hope, encouragement, a fresh beginning to something fruitful, and ever lasting love. She has proven to the world that it is possible to dream and to achieve. She has taught a lot of us that your dreams can transition into facts when you work hard for them. During a recent interview with Barbara Walters, Oprah discusses with Barbara several delicate topics. However, the moment I turned my tv's volume up was when Barbara introduced the subject of "having children". In summary, Oprah added that she wouldn't have done everything that she has accomplished in her life if she had any children during those years of her career development For some people, this might be sound odd. Nevertheless, to my understanding, some professionals are just very passionate and dedicated at what they do, and they just want to put their focus on their careers. Every person has their own way of being. Oprah is a very independent woman (evidently) and she just really wants to be her and help others, as we already know. She has definitely changed the world in numerous ways and we're all looking forward to see much more of what she does!

Merry Christmas
