Organization Scales

Trying to get organized today...The Spotlight is now less than a week away and I am in charge of "The Spotlight Band" and making sure they have all the info they need.

Tonight I looked through our production packet and retrieved the info regarding set up and tech times, equipment and call times so that I could email out to the band. We have one more rehearsal tomorrow evening, so it's time to make sure that everyone is on the same page and our course of action is locked down.

I've been running through my song and making some adjustments here and there based on what we did at Thursday's rehearsal. Little by little the song has been taking shape. It may not be the most incredible song in the world, but it's mine and I'm proud of it.

Here's another version of the song - with some slight improvements/changes...

Ever since I was a little girl
No one doubted I could dream,
Of being someone big some day
On the silver screen

Playing in my room alone
I would dress in my mother's clothes
Decked myself out in high heels
And in her pantyhose

Everywhere I went I knew just
how to make a scene
'Cause if I didn't get what I wanted
I had no choice but to scream

Then I'd sit and cry and cry
In the mirror for an hour or three
You might think that was a waste of time
But not for this drama queen

Chorus:

'Cause I just wanted to be a little bit famous
(I could taste it in my tears)
Yeah I just wanted to be a little bit famous
(I cried for my own entertainment)

I grew up an only child
In a smaller family
I had a captive audience
When the attention was on me

I would sing at any chance
That would come my way
I even wrote a little Oscar speech
So I'd be ready for that day

Chorus:

'Cause I just wanted to be a little bit famous
(singing in the living room)
Yeah I just wanted to be a little bit famous
(I still feel I grew up a little too soon)

Now I'm grown and I still wanna see my full name up in lights,
Although it would be fine by me if the marquis is not that bright
And if you recognize me while I'm walking down the road,
That's totally cool by me, just don't follow me home

Chorus:

'Cause I just wanna be a little bit famous
(I no longer want super fame)
Yeah I just wanna be a little bit famous
You may vaguely know my name)

I just wanna be a little bit famous
(I can take on any role)
I just wanna be a little bit famous
(Without losing complete control)

I'm Britney!
I just wanna be hit one more time Baby,

I'm Shakira!
I just wanna see underneath of what you're wearing

I'm Cher!
I just wanna Believe in life after love after love after love after love

Chorus:

I just wanna be a little bit famous
(I will sing in any voice)
I just wanna be a little bit famous
(I just wanna have the choice)
To be me. To be me. To be me.
