The World is Watching. It's time to detox

H.U.G.S.(Helping Us Grow Spiritually)




What happens when a black man brings his white girlfriend into a barbershop in Harlem? The video showing how people reacted to this stereotyping scenario might surprise you.
In the video, several men and women react to racist hairdresser’s attempts to intimidate and humiliate a young girl because of the color of her skin.
In an episode of “What Would You Do”, three actors play out a racist scene in Denny Moe’s, a Harlem barbershop.
One actress portrays a hairdresser who bashes a man’s girlfriend because of her differing ethnicity. The show gauged real customers’ reactions as the hairdresser repeatedly criticizes the girl in a racist rant.
Some customers sat quietly, allowing the racism to continue, but others took a stand against the hatred.

The logical Song by Supertramp



When I was young, it seemed that life was so wonderful, a miracle, it was beautiful, magical 
And all the birds in the trees, well they'd be singing so happily, joyfully, playfully, watching me 
But then they send me away to teach me how to be sensible, logical, responsible, practical 
And they showed me a world where I could be so dependable, clinical, intellectual, cynical 
There are times when all the world's asleep 
The questions run too deep for such a simple man 
Won't you please, please tell me what we've learned 
I know it sounds absurd but please tell me who I am 

I said now, watch what you say, now we're calling you a radical, a liberal, fanatical, criminal 
Won't you sign up your name, we'd like to feel you're acceptable, respectable, presentable, a vegetable 

But at night, when all the world's asleep 
The questions run so deep for such a simple man 
Won't you please (Won't you tell me), (You can tell me what) please tell me what we've learned (Can you hear me?) 
I know it sounds absurd, (Won't you help me) please tell me who I am, who I am, who I am, who I am 

But I'm thinking so logical 

Did you call, one two three four 

It's getting unbelievable

Thank You - Alanis Morisette


how bout getting off these antibiotics 
how bout stopping eating when I’m full up 
how bout them transparent dangling carrots 
how bout that ever elusive kudo 

thank you india 
thank you terror 
thank you disillusionment 
thank you frailty 
thank you consequence 
thank you thank you silence 

how bout me not blaming you for everything 
how bout me enjoying the moment for once 
how bout how good it feels to finally forgive you 
how bout grieving it all one at a time 

thank you india 
thank you terror 
thank you disillusionment 
thank you frailty 
thank you consequence 
thank you thank you silence 

the moment I let go of it was the moment 
I got more than I could handle 
the moment I jumped off of it 
was the moment I touched down 

how bout no longer being masochistic 
how bout remembering your divinity 
how bout unabashedly bawling your eyes out 
how bout not equating death with stopping 

thank you india 
thank you providence 
thank you disillusionment 
thank you nothingness 
thank you clarity 
thank you thank you silence

Static Space by Erica Sunn



I had a ticket to ride, before you broke it, 
before you broke it for real 
And I know that nobody could ever 
take your place in the static space 

I had a ticket to ride, if you try me 
If you try me for real 
'Cause I know that nobody could ever 
fil your space, and we know it 
and we know it 

Oh, I had a beautiful time before you took it, 
before you took it from me 
well I ever, ever come back 
from this loneliness in the static space 

I lost the key of my heart 
I felt it all the way 
all the way from the start 

Oh we had a cynical life 
but no one know the truth 
I wont be able to lie again 
to me or anyone else 

I had a ticket to ride, before you broke it, 
before you broke it for real 
and I know that nobody could ever 
take your place in the static space 
in the static space (in the static space) 
in the static space

Far from Love by Missquerade


It's been a while it seems so long
I still remember when we were young
Living our lives as one - always
You had to stay I had to go
Leaving was hard but I hope you know
You've been a part of me - always

Even though it's been so long
My heart is telling me keep strong
Cause I know I'll find you

I am far from my love
Round the world
But I never will forget
So I wish on a star
To be right back in your arms
And I pray high above
To be right back where you are

I'm back and I believe
Everything's different now you'll see
We'll be together now - always

Even though it's been so long
My heart is telling me keep strong
Cause I know I'll find you

[CHORUS]

Sorry I have to leave again
Never intended it to end
Until we meet again - always

I am far from my love
Round the world
But I never will forget
So I wish on a star
To be right back in your arms
And I pray high above
But I never will forget
So I wish on a star
To be right back in your arms
And I pray high above
To be right back where you are

Sunday, Bloody Sunday


I can't believe the news today
Oh, I can't close my eyes 
And make it go away
How long...
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...

Broken bottles under children's feet
Bodies strewn across the dead end street
But I won't heed the battle call
It puts my back up
Puts my back up against the wall

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

And the battle's just begun
There's many lost, but tell me who has won
The trench is dug within our hearts
And mothers, children, brothers, sisters 
Torn apart

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

How long...
How long must we sing this song
How long, how long...
'cause tonight...we can be as one
Tonight...tonight... 

Sunday, Bloody Sunday
Sunday, Bloody Sunday

Wipe the tears from your eyes
Wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
Oh, wipe your tears away
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Oh, wipe your blood shot eyes
(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)
Sunday, Bloody Sunday (Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

And it's true we are immune
When fact is fiction and TV reality
And today the millions cry
We eat and drink while tomorrow they die

(Sunday, Bloody Sunday)

The real battle just begun
To claim the victory Jesus won
On...

Sunday Bloody Sunday
Sunday Bloody Sunday...

My way by Frank Sinatra

And now, the end is near

And so I face the final curtain

My friend, I'll say it clear

I'll state my case, of which I'm certain

I've lived a life that's full

I traveled each and ev'ry highway

And more, much more than this, I did it my way



Regrets, I've had a few

But then again, too few to mention

I did what I had to do , I saw it through without exemption

I planned each charted course, each careful step along the highway

And more, much more than this, I did it my way



Yes, there were times, I'm sure you knew

When I bit off more than I could chew

And through it all, when there was doubt

I ate it up and spit it out

I faced it all and I stood tall and did it my way



I've loved, I've laughed and cried

I've had my fill, my share of losing

And now, as tears subside, I find it all so amusing

To think I did all that

And may I say, not in a shy way,

"Oh, no, oh, no, not me, I did it my way"



For what is a man, what has he got?

If not himself, then he has naught

The right to say the things he feels and not the words of one who kneels

The record shows I took the blows and did it my way!

The Princess of China by Coldplay & Rihanna


Ohhhhh...
[Chris Martin:]

Once upon a time somebody ran
Somebody ran away saying fast as I can
I've got to go... got to go
Once upon a time we fell apart
You're holding in your hands the two Halves of my heart
Ohhhhh, ohhhhh!
Ohhhhh...
[Rihanna:]

Once upon a time, we burn bright
Now all we ever seem to do is fight
On and on...
And on and on and on...
Once upon a time on the same side.
Once upon a time on the same side, the same game
And why'd you have to go, have to go and throw it all on my fame

[Chorus:]

I could've been a Princess, You'd be a King
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go

I could've been a Princess, You'd be a king
Could've had a castle, and worn a ring
But no, you let me go

And stole my star
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
You stole my star
La, la la la la laaaaaa


Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
Oooooooh-oh oh oooooooh oh oh oh ohhhhhhhhh
[Outro:]

Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
No you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
Ooooooooh no you really hurt me
Cause you really hurt me
Ooooooooh no you really hurt me

Umbrella by Rihanna

[Jay-Z]
Uh huh, uh huh (Yea Rihanna)
Uh huh, uh huh (Good girl gone bad)
Uh huh, uh huh (Take three... Action)
Uh huh, uh huh
No clouds in my stones
Let it rain, I hydroplane in the bank
Coming down with the Dow Jones
When the clouds come we gone, we Rocafella
We fly higher than weather
In G5's are better, You know me,
In anticipation, for precipitation. Stack chips for the rainy day
Jay, Rain Man is back with little Ms. Sunshine
Rihanna where you at?
[Rihanna]

You have my heart
And we'll never be worlds apart
Maybe in magazines
But you'll still be my star
Baby 'cause in the dark
You can't see shiny cars
And that's when you need me there
With you I'll always share

Because
[Chorus]

When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'd be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
These fancy things, will never come in between
You're part of my entity, here for infinity
When the war has took its part
When the world has dealt its cards
If the hand is hard, together we'll mend your heart
Because

[Chorus]

When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'd be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)



You can run into my arms
It's OK, don't be alarmed
Come here to me
There's no distance in between our love
So go on and let the rain pour
I'll be all you need and more
Because

[Chorus]

When the sun shines, we'll shine together
Told you I'll be here forever
Said I'll always be a friend
Took an oath I'ma stick it out 'til the end
Now that it's raining more than ever
Know that we'll still have each other
You can stand under my umbrella
You can stand under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh)
Under my umbrella
(Ella ella eh eh eh eh eh eh)
It's raining, raining
Oh, baby it's raining, raining
Baby come here to me
Come here to me
It's raining, raining
Oh baby it's raining, raining
You can always come here to me
Come here to me

I´ll be your dream by Savage Garden

I'll be your dream
I'll be your wish I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do
I will be strong I will be faithful
'cause I'm counting on

A new beginning
A reason for living
A deeper meaning, yeah
[chorus:]

I want to stand with you on
a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to lay like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

And when the stars are shining
brightly in the velvet sky,
I'll make a wish send it to heaven
Then make you want to cry
The tears of joy for all the
pleasure and the certainty
That we're surrounded by the
comfort and protection of

The highest powers
In lonely hours
The tears devour you

[chorus]
Oh can you see it baby?
You don't have to close your eyes
'Cause it's standing right before you
All that you need will surely come

I'll be your dream I'll be your wish
I'll be your fantasy
I'll be your hope I'll be your love
Be everything that you need
I'll love you more with every breath
Truly, madly, deeply do

[chorus]

I want to stand with you on a mountain
I want to bathe with you in the sea
I want to live like this forever
Until the sky falls down on me

I will survive by gloria gaynor



At first I was afraid
I was petrified
Kept thinking I could never live
without you by my side
But then I spent so many nights
thinking how you did me wrong
And I grew strong
And I learned how to get along
and so you're back
from outer space
I just walked in to find you here
with that sad look upon your face
I should have changed that stupid lock
I should have made you leave your key
If I had known for just one second
you'd be back to bother me

Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to hurt me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
oh as long as i know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive (hey hey)

It took all the strength I had
not to fall apart
kept trying hard to mend
the pieces of my broken heart
and I spent oh so many nights
just feeling sorry for myself
I used to cry
But now I hold my head up high
and you see me
somebody new
I'm not that chained up little girl who's
still in love with you
and so you felt like dropping in
and just expect me to be free
But now I'm saving all my loving
for someone who's loving me

Go on now go walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
oh as long as i know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive (oh)

Go on now go, walk out the door
just turn around now
'cause you're not welcome anymore
weren't you the one who tried to break me with goodbye
Did you think I'd crumble
Did you think I'd lay down and die
Oh no, not I
I will survive
oh as long as i know how to love
I know I'll stay alive
I've got all my life to live
I've got all my love to give
and I'll survive
I will survive 
I will survive...!
