MUSIC IS THE VOICE OF THE SOUL
I just found out about her song this afternoon.
We all know how soothing music is at times when the heart aches.
We are hurting in Orlando.
It’s been a long week.
At this time, all I have found is the song in SoundCloud.
It’s a beautiful, amazing, heartfelt song.
As soon as she publishes a YouTube video, I will post it.
For the time being, click on the link provided below and listen to the lyric of this powerful song.
An anthem indeed!

The legendary out singer initially wrote a song about Orlando to make herself less scared and angry.
But putting it out into the world, “feels like holding someone’s hand.”
Melissa Etheridge had just rolled into New York City on her tour bus Sunday mornin, June 12, when she heard the news about Orlando.
Like most LGBT people, she instantly felt helpless and uneasy.
“I found myself roaming around my apartment,” she tells The Advocate. After spending too much time staring at the nearby Freedom Tower, she picked up her guitar. “I knew that would make me feel better, and I just started writing.”
The result is “Pulse,” a rousing testament to humanity and love overcoming hate. In the song, Etheridge sings,
“I dream in a world that wants my soul / That tells me if I hate I can control / But I don’t believe it / I cannot conceive it / Because everybody has a pulse”
It’s earnest but beautiful; steadfastly positive against all odds.
“Once again I hang my head to cry / I can’t find a reason why they died / We will find the answer / Blowin’ in the wind”
“As it appears in …. full read/full credit”

PULSE
(LOVE WILL ALWAYS WIN)
Everybody’s got a pain inside
Imaginary wounds they fight to hide
How can I hate them
When everybody’s got a pulseI dream in a world that wants my soul
That tells me if I hate I can control
But I don’t believe it
I cannot conceive it because
Everybody’s got a pulseCHORUS
I am human I am love
And my heart beats with my blood
Love will always win
Underneath the skin
Everybody’s got a pulseOnce again I hang my head to cry
I can’t find the reason why they died
We will find the answer
Blowing in the wind that
Everybody’s got a pulseCHORUS
Who ya gonna hate now
When there’s no one left but you
Who ya gonna gun down
When you can’t kill the truth
That its inside of us
It’s inside the blood
It’s inside a pulseI am human I am love
And my heart beats in my blood
Love will always win
Underneath the skin
Everybody’s got a pulseHands up if you’re alive
Hands up if you’re aliveLove will always win
Underneath the skin
Everybody’s got a pulse
We ALL are connected through HUMANITY!!
We ALL are ONE!!
It Is What It Is
