Been there, Done that! I was just reading in the latest Rolling Stone magazine that Lady Gaga will reveal the name of her new album on NYE 2010 by tattooing it on herself. Yeah well I got there first...huh! Jokes and Jealousy aside (oh to have her album sales! lol!), I initially was going to get a tattoo with ‘Soul’ on it....just love the word on many levels - it’s many meanings and connotations. Anyway, I had just finished my album and thought why not tattoo the whole title? So I did! Megs from ‘Bondi Ink’ in Sydney did it for me. She’s done all mine. She is an Amazing Creative tattooist & does such Beautiful detailed work. Look her up...

Anyway, ‘Soul Tripping’ is a song about dealing with depression and not being afraid to sit with yourself and your emotions and not being afraid to reach out to someone when life gets too much and before you do something really destructive and regretful, like committing suicide. I burst out crying after I’d done the vocal session as I felt every word I sang. I truly believe we are all on a Soul Trip and we gotta keep true to ourselves throughout our travel on this earth. The more we do this the more we enjoy our lives - flow and feel calm and centred.
And Yes - Copy me Lady Gaga! - in all I’ve read or heard about you...you do your own thing and I soo admire that. Go Girl!!
