Now this is a song to celebrate.
Date: 10.11.18 -- Day 95 ("30-Day Blogging Challenge ON HIATUS" Open in new Window. -- Day 11)
Music: "Sisters Are Doin' It For Themselves" / Aretha Franklin feat. The Eurythmics

*Burstp* Prompt -- October 11 is International Day of the Girl Child. What are your favorite girl power songs? Share 11. *BurstP*

So this was a fun one. I reached out to my family - my nieces, my sisters, my mom and aunts - and these are some of the ones I got back with a few of my own. I provided links to all of them in case anyone is interested, or if one day you need that mental boost and a power song will get you there.

Happy International Day of the Girl Child!


*Music1* "Girls Just Want To Have Fun  Open in new Window." / Cyndi Lauper

I want to be the one to walk in the sun
Oh girls they wanna have fun

*Music2* "Electric Lady  Open in new Window." / Janelle Monae

Once you see her face, her eyes, you'll remember
And she'll have you falling harder than a Sunday in September

*Music1* "That's My Girl  Open in new Window." / 5th Harmony

Destiny said it, you got to get up and get it
Get mad independent and don't you ever forget it
Got some dirt on your shoulder, then let me brush it off for ya

*Music2* "Good As Hell  Open in new Window." / Lizzo

Woo girl, need to kick off your shoes
Got to take a deep breath, time to focus on you

*Music1* "Queendom  Open in new Window." / Aurora

The underdogs are my lions
The silent ones are my choir
The women will be my soldiers
With the weight of life on their shoulders

*Music2* "Control  Open in new Window." / Janet Jackson

Got my own mind
I want to make my own decisions
When it has to do with my life, my life
I wanna be the one in control

*Music1* "I Love It  Open in new Window." / Icona Pop featuring Charlie XCX

I got this feeling on the summer day when you were gone

*Music2* "Salute  Open in new Window." / Little Mix

Ladies all across the world
Listen up, we're looking for recruits
Get your killer heels, sneakers, pumps or lace up your boots
Representing all the women, salute, salute

*Music1* "Bulletproof  Open in new Window." / La Roux

Tick, tick, tick, tick on the watch
And life's too short for me to stop
Oh, baby, your time is running out

*Music2* "Hit Me With Your Best Shot  Open in new Window." / Pat Benatar

Knock me down, it's all in vain
I get right back on my feet again


*AsteriskP* *AsteriskP* *AsteriskP*
