*** Everyone and everything interests me because I love to learn new things. What's really fascinating to me, is how music can change the molecular structure of your being. Translation....IT MAKES YOU FEEL SOOOOO GOOD! NOW GET ON UP AND DANCE I SAID! LOL***
I'd like to meet:
*****I'D LOVE TO MEET*****("JOHN MAYER"), but I already met him at Samys Camera on 12/20/06. I gotta tell you he's a gentle, cool and real dude. His smile just lit up the room, and I just felt warmth from him when we were talking. I'd love to sing with him one day. I've worked with so many amazing and legendary people, and he's one I'd love to trade harmonies with. His style, and the way he just gets to the core of the song is mesmerizing. His face when he sings and plays is full of raw emotion, and truth, and his voice moves me like nothing I've ever experienced before. No question at all where John Mayer is coming from. I listen to him often, and I get from his gift what I need. For that I'm grateful to him for making his way to us, so we could share in his journey. Thanks John. David Ryan Harris....what a pure voice. I mean he just opens his mouth and BAM....his voice just reaches your heart immediately. I met him at the Hotel Cafe, and his show was one of the best I've been to in a long time. When I hear David sing, I can just close my eyes and let his voice take me wherever it wants to. Such is the beauty and freedom of his gift. What a nice guy too.....to be that talented and cool, well it just doesn't get any better. I hope to sing with him someday soon. I met "OPRAH" when I sang with ROBERT DOWNEY, JR. on her show. She actually picked the duet that he and I sang on the show, over the original song that was chosen. That was such a blessing. Her energy is off the charts. Class, strength, beauty and intelligence....that's what she's made of. I'll be putting that video up soon for ya'll to take a look at. (yes I said ya'll!!) I'd also like to meet Nelson Mandela and talk to him for just a little while so I can breathe in his humble beauty, and learn from his journey. Maya Angelou I'd love to meet just to be near and share in her powerful soul. Her books feed my being. Every word that comes from her mouth is timeless and true.
I'd love to meet Eric Clapton because I sense so much going on in his spirit. He's got this quiet dignity about him. It speaks of what he's been through, yet he's survived. Bob Dylan....and so many more people. When I sang with JOE COCKER (one of my idols), I had so much to talk to him about. THAT was something I'll never forget. Well that and the fact that he was there everyday that I sang backgrounds with him. He didn't miss a thing, and (goodness) WHAT a voice!!! Guys like that have been through it you know? They know what life is really about, and they've been to the "mountain" a few times, and survived. Eh? Yeahhhh.....

(1st two videos by Sara(h). Check out her video subscription site musicangel847 on YouTube.)***ABOVE*** (FIRST VIDEO) Me and Tony Lucca performing a song written by Tony entitled "Its You" on the 3 Hour Tour.(2) ***TONY LUCCA**** My brother gifting us with his powerful, soulful, melodic and moving voice. Eveytime I hear him sing, it's like the first time I ever saw him. When Tony sings, its like he's singing directly to you, one on one. His talent is real and pure. I've known him forever ya'll and I love him soooo much. CHECK OUT his video above!!(3) ***SARAH VAUGHAN*** My favorite vocalist of all time! Her voice is like pure silk. When she sings, her throat undulates with power. Look closely...you'll see it!(4) ***STEVIE RAY VAUGHAN*** You know what the deal is. Singing "Leave My Little Girl Alone." B.B. King says "Stevie was the only guitar player he knew of, that never played the same riff twice. Stevie Ray Vaughan was an ever flowing river of the blues.(5) ***BILLIE HOLIDAY***This video is one of my favs. I'm speechless when I see it. There's so many different emotions going on during this song. Billie was the only vocalist of her time, that could sing a song with beauty, pain and such fragility all at the same time. What she went through, it was all in her voice, and she hid nothing....NOTHING.(6) ***LIZZ WRIGHT***Her voice sounds like a beautiful river flowing constantly. Beauty, class and talent combined is what Lizz is about.(7) ***MARC BROUSSARD***The real thing is what this man is. I had to go to his concert to see if he really sang as amazingly as his CD sounded, and my mind was completely blown. I had a chance to talk with him afterwards, one on one, and he's so down to earth. If you do anything in life, buy "Carencro", and S.O.S. (his latest album).(8) ***PAOLO NUTINI*** This talented soul is too amazing to behold. His voice is soulful and tender at the same time. I can't stop listening to him, and I hope you fee the same. So refreshing, and so it's about time okayyyy???(9) ***JENNIFER HOLIDAY*** The original Dreamgirl. Her version of "And I Am Telling You I'm Not Going" was the first for "Dreamgirls", and when she sings you'd better hold onto your seat, cause' the power of her voice will shake you up.(10)***ERNIE HALTER*** When I first heard his voice, I closed my eyes and thought I was in heaven. So effortless and pure....Ernie can SING!!! Beautiful spirit and amazing talent...Ernie Halter.*****************************************************
