Happy Friday Bodhi Babes!

This week's #FeelGoodFriday song is...

I LOVE this song and the lead singer Shirli McAllen is such a babe! What a stunning vintage style she has in this video. It's a pretty cool video all round and they're a pretty cool band.

"Leftover Cuties – Shirli McAllen (lead vocals, ukulele), Austin Nicholsen (bass, vocals), Mike Bolger (brass, keys, accordion, vocals ) and Stuart Johnson (drums, percussion, vocals) – have sparked a fire with music lovers with a timeless jazz-tinged sound, combining sultry vocals, pop-perfect songwriting, and seasoned musicianship."

You may know Game Galled Life as the theme tune from The Big C, which was one of the catalysts for me starting Bodhi Babes (It inspired me so much Bodhi Babes was called Game Called life to begin with). You can read all about it in my first blog post, You Are Dying

See the lyrics below for a sing-along and perhaps something to ponder. Step out of your comfort zone and start participating fully in this 'Game called life'.

Go play!

Leftover Cutie - Game Called Life

It's so hard to turn your life over Step out of your comfort zone It's so hard to choose one direction When your future is unknown Is this some kind of a joke, will someone wake me up soon? And tell me this was just a game we played, called life. Are we, are we all really slaves? By the hands of ourselves Did I really make all of those mistakes? Am I really getting older? Then why do I feel so lost? Is this some kind of a joke, will someone wake me up soon? And tell me this was just a game we played, called life. And at the end of the road, is there someone waiting? Do I get a medal for surviving this long? Is this some kind of a joke, will someone wake me up soon? And tell me this was just a game we played, called life. Is this some kind of a joke, will someone wake me up soon? And tell me this was just a game we played, called life.
