Does anyone have any links downloadable or otherwise where I can watch her performances? I missed the show Thanks R. There were a few posts that provided links for what BET showed and the links to the other performances are still up on FB last I checked. I recorded the entire show (with my phone, but it's still pretty good lol). I haven't had the time to upload it. I'll do it tomorrow (along with the performance they cut out).

Where are the performances you were gonna posts AinA? Can you give a sista a little more time? lol... I initially uploaded the full version of BGR to youtube, but Viacom blocked it, so I may (or not) upload it to another site. If I upload don't be too hard on me though, I had to record with my phone lol and I did not cut much out in regards to extraneous bits, sorry lol. At the same time I was doing a few other things. So I was preoccupied a bit with that. It was a great show, except for Hillary's trifling presence and I certainly disliked how they cut MLH'S other performances. I already uploaded the cut performances (nothing that hasn't been shown here already): I just increased the volume a bit. Black is the color of my true love's hair Back and Forth:

I remember you were a frequent commenter on the Lauryn hill concerts I uploaded. Small world. normally I keep my various accounts separate/unknown lol, but I don't mind too much that people know this is my YT channel. A bit unsettling because I typically don't like linking one account with my other account(s), but I think I'll be ok with this decision lol. Glad you enjoyed the vids.

How can she go over ?! It's pre recorded ! Performances are given a specific time slot. Quiet as its kept... Lauryn's performance was after the show, at 12PM. So her performance was after the show;however, when "lost one" was done there were some in the audience appearing to be singing it. Did they have the people singing it so they could add it in later? Was it Lauryn and the camera man along with the band or did some remain for the actual performance? I've included some photos. These photo shows Lauryn with plenty of charms, hands, triangles, and what look like spirit dancer behind her. I don't see the significant of the dancers on either song in fact they were more of a distraction in my mind. I hope the album is what make Lauryn lauryn and not a water down version of Fela. His songs often did the same things When he was presenting a message right in the middle would come these half naked women gyrating on stage to cloud or take away the message entirely.

During the actual performance live even when it was recorded there were some tweets from ppl on the audience saying they were pretty much waiting for her after the event was over. I take it she was late. Also, the Facebook videos that were originally posted stated that she performed in front of recorded audience or something like that.

It must have been quite a few waiting or the miracle of splicing and copying. lol

Lost One's was the last song she performed. BET sliced her performance and used her performance for lost's ones, which they also cut. Lauryn performed 3 songs for 20 minutes. And their is nothing really sexual about Fela's art. At the end of the day Lauryn is apart of the music business, and albums are released to net a profit. There will be a commercial aspect to Lauryn's album. Just like their was with the MEOLH with Doo Wop. Flea's message was never watered down.

Thanks AinA for the Back and Forth video! Great song, this is what I hear: Verse 1: Doing our thing We've got nothing to prove, yeah Fire inside Roll with my friends Love for the people We're back again You can try and stop us It's a waste of time I don't know what's yours You can't have what's mine Chorus: Just a little back and forth I'll take what belongs to me Watch me open up the door Just like I did before Just a little back and forth You can't stop what comes to me I won't take too much It's how it's supposed to be The meek shall inherit (the earth) 3x For what it's worth Verse 2: Find the right balance We're given the key The more we get focussed The more lovers we meet You can try and stop it It's a waste of time I don't know But you can't have what's mine Satisfaction is where I'm at I've got my people with me From the front to the back Don't call me a murderer ? My sisters, my brothers ? Take no bribery But don't ever tell us It's the proper release yeah This is our freedom And this is our right To live out this calling We won't stop the fight We want love that's eternal We'll deal with the facts These beautiful colours These beautiful blacks Don't call me murderer Love for my mother And love for my father My sisters, my brothers Chorus Verse 3: Defending what's right We won't stop the fight We could do this all day We could do this all night For the love of the spirit You can't wait too long You get what you give These are the words to this song In this invisible war We won't take it no more And we gon' do it again Just like we did it before It's time to get real It's time to get real, yeah I said it's time to get real I won't let you steal Chorus Verse 4: Nobody respects The process is key We won't compromise Take no bribery We've seen your aggression And prayed for your peace But don't let that stop us From saying our piece, yes! This is our freedom And this is our right To live out love's calling Oh no, we won't stop the fight We want love that's eternal We'll deal with the facts These beautiful colours These beautiful blacks Yes! Purpose Transcendence Universal Defenders Positive vibrations Oh to all of the citizens Chorus

I'm taking it different ways. Can you elaborate??
