Some of you may be familiar with The Little Miss Project, I've mentioned it before. Well, they have taken the next step and now they have The Little Miss Project website and if you scroll down to the bottom you can see me. But, please, watch a few of the submissions, read some of the stories, even if you've never heard Sugarland in your life take a moment to witness the power music has to comfort, communicate and heal. We all have our problems, some people have cancer, some feel they just don't fit in, but no matter where they are on the scale of human suffering "Little Miss" speaks to them. That's powerful music.
I'm sure a lot of you wonder what this headbanger is doing listening to Sugarland. But my musical tastes have been all over the map my whole life - Yes, Live, Styx, Anthrax, Slayer, Ella Fitzgerald, Frank Zappa and Brad Paisley just to name a few. When I first heard Jennifer singing "Down In Mississippi (Up To No Good)" I knew right away she was the greatest singer of my generation and I was a Sugarland fan for life.
Being a part of The Little Miss Project has been an absolute thrill for me. My video has gotten over 5,000 hits and The Headbanging Hostess has even picked up a few Facebook fans. I encourage you to check out The Little Miss Project and Sugarland. I guarantee at least one of their songs will speak to you. And that's what it's all about.
Bang on, my peeps! \m/

Wednesday, January 19, 2011 The Little Miss Project: Vanessa
I am beside myself with joy.
Last Thursday I happened upon Sugarland's blog post regarding The Little Miss Project. I'm telling you now, go get some Kleenex before you click on the video. A very bright young lady named Erica came up with the idea (I can't take credit, I wish I could) and she assembled and edited videos from a bunch of fans illustrating their journeys through their dark times and into the light of love and hope. Yeah, it sounds cheesy, but watch the video. It will move you.
So I rushed to put on some make-up, I actually had Dave out of the house playing poker for a few hours, and I tried to make a video. I tried. And cried. It was a struggle, the inspiration had truly moved me and I was having a hard time getting words out of my mouth.
But it didn't matter.
Watch the video here.
I'm truly honored that Sugarland chose my video first out of who knows how many submissions. I hope that sharing my story, through tears if not words, helps and inspires others who are dealing with Alzheimer's and depression.
It'll be alright again!
