Alice

We saw Alice in Wonderland last night. I had determined a year ago that I just wasn't going to see it, because I really, truly and honestly have never ever seen a single Tim Burton film that I have enjoyed at all. I think they're all the same - dark, boring and nasty. Most of them even have pretty much the same plot. However, the kids wanted to go see Alice, (my neighbor/daughter called it Alison in Wonderland, so that is what it will forever be dubbed, in my heart and mind) and off we went, free passes in hand.

It was the most amazing movie. I just can't say enough about it. I want to see it 5 more times right now. It was so endearing to me. It had a great story for kids, but it had an even better message for adults. It was visually stunning, and it was just lovely all the way around. I think it was Disney at it's finest. Walt would have been proud. Seriously.

Alice is a story of coming of age, of coming to believe in one's self. You should see it, really. And get the album.



Trippin out
Spinning around
I'm underground
I fell down
Yeah I fell down

I'm freaking out, where am I now?
Upside down and I can't stop it now
Can't stop me now, oh oh

I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, I won't cry

I found myself in Wonderland
Get back on my feet, on the ground
Is this real?
Is this pretend?
I'll take a stand until the end

I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, I won't cry

I, I'll get by
I, I'll survive
When the world's crashing down
When I fall and hit the ground
I will turn myself around
Don't you try to stop me
I, and I won't cry
