Shake Up Jane is getting ready for a talent show on the first! The piano-player (who is actually me, who is typing this) is also getting ready for a performance class, a solo at the talent show, and a recital, for which I have to have this huge Beethoven song MEMORIZED. I'm also trying to memorize Lion, and have about half of it down without looking at the notes. I don't get nearly as much practice time as I need, so I think that today I'm going to call the church where I use to take piano lessons, and see if I can go practice on one of the pianos there, where there are no distractions. I love my band. =D

Have any of you ever heard the song "Lion" by Rebecca St. James? (of course you Shake Up Jane blog members have...) Here are the lyrics:
Mysterious
That's what I call You
I'm curious about You
I'm scared and not sure that You are safe
But Your eyes seem to say that You are good
Chorus
This is not a dream that I'm living
This is just a world of Your own
You took me from all that I knew
Shown me how it feels to hope
With You with me, facing tomorrow together
I can learn to fly
Feels like I'm living in a lion's mouth, but the lion is (an angel)
Wise eyes, You see the core of me
Your gentleness melts me
And now I know that words cannot describe
The power that I feel when I'm with You
Chorus
This is not a dream that I'm living
This is just a world of Your own
You took me from all that I knew
Shown me how it feels to hope
With You with me, facing tomorrow together
I can learn to fly
Feels like I'm living in a lion's mouth, but the lion is
Peace and power, love forever
Who am I to stand before You?
I am speechless
But in my weakness
You are here and all is well
You took me from all that I knew
Shown me how it feels to hope
With You with me, facing tomorrow together
I can learn to fly
Feels like I'm living in a lion's mouth, but the lion is (an angel)
Chorus
This is not a dream that I'm living
This is just a world of Your own
You took me from all that I knew
Shown me how it feels to hope
With You with me, facing tomorrow together
I can learn to fly
Feels like I'm living in a lion's mouth, but the lion is (an angel)

We had a pretty nice band practice last night. Jake, or "Jane" came to his first Shake Up Jane practice. I think we all had a good time.
