Michelle Obama singing karaoke in a car with James Corden is the palate cleanser we all deserve this morning.

I am really going to miss having this Obama family in the White House.

I like the Clintons just fine, but these folks are just incredibly classy and fun.

Nice way to end our day. President Obama singing "Amazing Grace."

President Obama attended Rev. Clementa Pinckney's funeral in Charleston, South Carolina on Friday and delivered a moving version of "Amazing Grace" in the middle of his touching eulogy. 

Rev. Pinckney was a state senator and one of the nine victims of the tragic shooting that occurred in the church where his funeral took place. "If we can find that grace, anything is possible," Obama stated to the congregation. "If we can tap that grace, everything can change." 

After a moment of solemn silence, Obama began singing "Amazing Grace" a cappella before the choir, attendees and musicians joined in for the performance. Afterwards, the president stated that each of the victims had "found that grace," naming all nine individually. "May God continue to shed his grace on the United States of America," he concluded. 

The President has some pipes. 

He could use a little more practice to help his singing, but damn when the man speaks......

Even for a die hard Atheist like me, I found that quite touching. 

Let's try that whole singing to the crying baby thing again.

Since so many of you did not like yesterday's video of a mother singing to her crying baby, I thought I would try it again. This time it is both parents, and I think you will enjoy the outcome much better.

Stevie Wonder proclaims that he will never perform in ANY state which has a "Stand Your Ground" law.

Courtesy of Business Insider:

"I decided today that until the Stand Your Ground law is abolished in Florida, I will never perform there again," Wonder said on Sunday during a concert in Quebec City, Canada. "As a matter of fact, wherever I find that law exists, I will not perform in that state or in that part of the world." 

"The truth is that — for those of you who've lost in the battle for justice, wherever that fits in any part of the world — we can't bring them back. What we can do is we can let our voices be heard. And we can vote in our various countries throughout the world for change and equality for everybody. That's what I know we can do." 

Wonders joins a growing list of celebrities speaking out against the verdict, including Rihanna, Solange Knowles, Miley Cyrus, Nicki Minaj, Kim Kardashian, and Beyonce. 

You know discussing the problems with this law logically has not worked, trying to outmaneuver it politically has not worked, and even demonstrating its deadly effects in a court of law has not worked.

So maybe if EVERY intelligent, caring musical performer out there refused to put on a concert in states that have this arcane and hateful law on the books, maybe THAT would be enough to put pressure on lawmakers to finally do away with it? What do you think?

Oh they may hold off for awhile, but when they are down to Ted Nugent and a drunken off key singing Meatloaf, they might just have to rethink their position.

We can start urging our favorite artists to join with Stevie right here #standwithstevie

I had forgotten some of these moments, others I had never seen, but they are all destined to put smile on your face and remind you of just why you worked so hard to give this man a second term.
