Melissa Etheridge presented and gave out one of the most deserving awards of the year IMHO. POP/ROCK MALE and it went to the late Michael Jackson.

Pinktober Symposium - Melissa Etheridge

Article by Camille

I transcribed Melissa’s statements from the Hard Rock Cafe Pinktober Symposium in Washington, DC, September 30, 2009. I didn’t get all of the questions, but I got her responses.

Melissa Etheridge: “I’m just smarter just sitting here with you guys. You’re just wearing off on me. Ah it’s great. It’s a pleasure to be here. I am honored to be part of the Hard Rock and associated with the BCRF and getting to know these scientists, these amazing researchers in this field over the last twenty-four hours has been amazing. And hearing what they are doing and how they’re going about it and how they, I mean it’s a cliche now the ‘thinking outside of the box’, thinking about how to get ahead of this as they see people everyday getting sick with this disease, and I am honored to be up hear speaking with all of them. And I love that he’s a very accomplished musician and so I think the research/ science/ music- very very close, and I am honored to be up here with these guys.”


Host: “Could you give me your feeling about that? About the notion of creativity within structure?”

Melissa Etheridge: “I think that’s the key of life, though, I think that we are . . . key ‘To’ life . . . key ‘Of’ life too, but I think that’s . . .”

Host: “I don’t know that key.”

Melissa Etheridge: “I know, well, Stevie Wonder, he had that key. I think . . . my belief, and it comes from a spiritual place, is that we are all here to create, and I think as you get older and something happens called wisdom- is this wonderful thing that we don’t cherish enough in our society. As we get older, we start thinking OK maybe it’s not all about working, making money and buying things. Maybe there’s something else. And maybe that drive that drives us so long for, you know, me, well into my thirties, you start to say what is life really about, what is this whole existence about, and it is about creativity. And I think so much of the way that we’ve set up our society and our culture is we’ve got a groove. You know, you tell your kids here’s the product, here’s the many ways you can make money, now go do it, you know and it is up to us now to think away from it, to get outside of it, because I think that causes a lot . . . that is the beginning of a lot of the health problems. We don’t understand how culture/ society/ environment influences health, and that’s where I like to come from, is Yes, you know, you guys are working so hard you get in there and get the genes and you’re figuring out this gene does that and this and what can we do to manipulate that and get around it, and yet it has been proven that you take the genes and you put them in a different environment and the gene will adapt to that environment. So I would like to also see the research go past into environmental issues.”


Host: You’ve done some amazing creative work in your life. What’s your process?

Melissa Etheridge: “Wow. I started creating when I was a child. And so this, you know, I didn’t go to school, I didn’t, you know I wasn’t studied on this and to me, it was an act of being still, and dreaming, and then something opens up, and something comes through, and all of a sudden you’re writing this and singing this and you are inspired by that which has come before you, and music that you’ve heard, and starting at ten years old, I started dreaming. It is about- creativity and intention are woven together because you find that this creativity which comes through, and now, my work then is immediate. You guys, yours is a long term process of patience. Mine, I write this piece of music, I create this, I take it from the cosmos, the consciousness, the whatever that is and bring it through, and then I put it out and into these other energy beings out here, and then something immediately comes back. And it’s this awesome energy flow that then becomes a path, a well worn path, and as I got older and older it was easier and easier to just hook up to it. It’s just like OK and I all had to do was just be still and be alone, and OK, come on, and this coupled with the intention, and that intention of a teenager and how I want to be a rock star and I want to be rich and famous, you know, and you put that desire behind it, that intention behind it, and that’s like rocket fuel. You can just go anywhere if you’re focused on it. And I found myself there, and the saying, ‘be careful what you ask for ‘cause you’re gonna get it’ is so true because you find yourself then, I found myself in the world where, oh yeah I was rich and famous, and now what? That is not the be all end all. That was the ideal dream sort of that culture again puts in front of us, yet the creativity never changes. That was the gift, that was the life blood, that was the thing that I loved to do, so there came a point – cancer – when I went through the cancer, I so hear you, I love your whole changing everything. I hate to use the word breast cancer ‘victim’, I don’t like that at all. And I struggle with ‘survivor’ but I understand, we’ve made that a very powerful thing so I’m OK with that, but the creativity part, once I went through the cancer and got out the other side, I said this is . . . I’m going to do what I love to do, everyday, no matter what. And that, then, I believe circles around to health. We are creative beings. Every day we create. And if you create what you love, you’re going to love what you create, and your life, the environment of your life is going to be better.”


Melissa Etheridge: “People can . . . everyday people can make a difference. When you make a choice, when you choose a soft drink over water, when you make that personal choice, to make healthier choices in your life, these companies hear that. And that’s the only way it’s gonna change. You can’t look at a business that makes seventy billion dollars and tell them, ‘Hey you need to be healthier’. No. You guys have to make that choice. Every day, in you . . . three times a day you vote, you choose, you are telling these people what you will buy and what you will do.”


Melissa Etheridge: “Yeah, well I can, actually both of those questions sort of meld together for me, because they have one thing in common. And that is our Capitalistic society. We live in a culture that is based on . . . everything runs on money, and it’s all profit driven, and that’s how our country has been set up. And in the music business, when these guys were first coming out, it wasn’t about money. It was about making music. It was about what the art form was, was ages old from the mistrals that would go from town to town and were regarded as shamans almost, they spoke the . . . what was happening from town to town. These were people- they would get their news from these people. So that sort of art form was healthy and alive in the beginning of rock and roll. That these people . . . when Bob Dylan was playing the coffee houses he wasn’t thinking about his record deal, you know he wasn’t thinking about ‘Am I going to sell out, am I going to sell this many tickets this time as I did last time’. Now, our country what it does with anything that is, that we turn our attention to, it turns it into a profit. Someone’s going to make a buck from it, because that’s the way our country’s set up. And I’m not saying that’s bad, I’m saying that’s just how it is. Now . . . this . . . my generation, that we grew up in the sixties and seventies, saw that big change happen right around the eighties and nowadays artists, brand new artists coming into it, it’s not that much of a social . . . it’s more can I get on American Idol, can I make that record deal, can I make that money. And the best . . . the answer to that is to support the artists that are still out there on the fringe, the ones that are bringing the communication out and forward, the ones that are being a mirror to our society and not only in music but in any form. What can you do? You can go to your Representative, your Congressman, your Senator, and say this is important to me. This, you know, whatever it is, this . . . our quality of life is important. I want to be more important than the corporate profit margin. My individual life is more important than this. And again, all of that, all of that, any corporation is based on you, and what you’re gonna buy, what you are going to be attracted to to buy. And if they see that we can change that, if they see the change, the money will go that way. If you start buying the album of the artist who is speaking some sort of truth that rings into you, that’s . . . the attention goes there, and you change that paradigm, so I feel the same way about both of those questions.”


Melissa Etheridge: “So, I was gonna sing that song one more time, but after sittin’ up here I was thinking you know I’m gonna do something else because I’m gonna do a new song. I’ve never sang this song before but I think it fits what we were talkin’ about and I just love that. I always think that oh I’m going to be the weirdo, I’m gonna be the one talking about the cosmos, and I think being with these wonderful creative minds, scientific minds who are on that creative edge out there, hearing them understand the spirit. I think you can’t be a scientist, you can’t be out there pushing the edge and going deep into the subatomic world and not see the spirit in it. That there’s a great spirit behind it all. So that was very enlightening for me, up there, to be doing that, so I thought I would present this song. It’s going to be on my new album, and it has to do with this, and how I feel right now, and it’s called Only Love. It goes like this. All right?”
