Essra Mohawk - STARSTUFF ..."incredible," "brilliant," "gorgeous," "wonderful," "great song"...

Wonderful song about the beauty in all of us from gifted artist Essra Mohawk - https://www.facebook.com/ESSRAMOHAWK.FanPage - whom All Music Guide called "one of America's rarest treasures." Photo is from Peermusic Publishing during an impromptu piano performace. Yes, it was magical...

Essra's PRIMORDIAL LOVERS was christened the Mother album of "grrrl power" and called "one of the 25 best albums of all time" in Rolling Stone.
STARSTUFF

I'M NOT THE KIND OF GIRL YOU CAN CATEGORIZE
IF YOU THINK YOU'VE GOT MY NUMBER
YOU'RE IN FOR A SURPRISE
SO USE YOUR IMAGINATION
LOOK NEAR AND LOOK FAR
'CAUSE PEOPLE ARE MADE OF THE SAME STUFF AS STARS

(CHORUS): ISN'T IT ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN YOU'RE LOOKIN' AT STARSTUFF, STARSTUFF ISN'T IT ENOUGH TO KNOW WHEN YOU'RE LOOKIN' AT STARSTUFF

WE UNDERESTIMATE THE POWER OF DREAMS
'CAUSE EVERYTHING AROUND US
ISN'T SOLID AS IT SEEMS
IT'S ONLY A REFLECTION
WE SHINE NEAR AND FAR
'CAUSE PEOPLE ARE MADE OF THE SAME STUFF AS STARS

(CHORUS 2X)

IT'S REALLY NOT A SECRET
CLUES ARE EVERYWHERE
COME AND FIND YOUR FREEDOM
MY LOVE WILL TAKE YOU THERE

COME LET ME SHOW YOU WHAT YOU'VE STILL NEVER SEEN
IN THE LAND OF ALL OR NOTHING
THERE IS NO IN-BETWEEN
THERE ARE NO RESTRICTIONS
LET'S BE ALL THAT WE ARE
'CAUSE PEOPLE ARE MADE OF THE SAME STUFF AS STARS

(CHORUS/RIDE)

i have a question... i don't know what essra's album contains this track!!!

I can't help but i listen this song since i discovered one week ago!!!

[fecinny]

@ginesik0 Thank you very much for enjoying this song as I do. With Essra being such a prolific writer, not all her songs are on CDs. This is a demo that has been very well received but wouldn't it be nice if it was covered by an artist that could bring it justice! Who do you hear singing it?

[ginesik0]

a masterpiece!!!!!

[fecinny]

@ginesik0  Thank you and I wholeheartedly agree!

[Finallybenunderstood]

[fecinny]

@Finallybenunderstood Good question...poor promotion, diff record labels, lttle or no touring, bad management choices, diff music styles, etc. But, at least she got the music right!
