"Just Fine" ASL Interpretation by Loco Funk

Life is filled with different seasons. We are all at different seasons and going through different experiences. Sometimes, we forget part of the journey to become the people we are to grow up to be is filled with distractions and trials essential to get us to where we need to be. I've always liked the phrase, "When God closes one door, he opens another". Too often we're looking back and we don't see the door opening right in  front of us and we'll miss a wonderful opportunity. One of the things I've learned is to be grateful for what we have. It's all temporary, anyway.

This is a GREAT video.

Lyrics to Mary Blige's "Just Fine"
"Just Fine"

You know I love music
And every time I hear something hot
It makes me wanna move
It makes me wanna have fun
But it’s something about this joint right here
This joint right here
Its makes me wanna…..Woooh

Let it go……
Can’t let this thing called love get away from you
Feel free right now, going do what you want to do
Can’t let nobody take it away, from you, from me, from we
No time for moping around, are you kidding?
And no time for negative vibes, cause I’m winning
It’s been a long week, I put in my hardest
Gonna live my life, feels so good to get it right

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I aint gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
Keep your head up high
In yourself, believe in you, believe in me
Having a really good time, I’m not complaining
And I’m a still wear a smile if it raining
I got to enjoy myself regardless
I appreciate life, I’m so glad I got mine
So I like what I see when I’m looking at me

When I’m walking past the mirror
Aint worried about you and what you gonna do
I’m a lady so I must stay classy
Got to keep it hot, keep it together
If I want to get better
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

I aint gon’ let nothing get in my way
(I ain't gone let nobody bring me down, no, no, no)
No matter what nobody has to say
(No way, no way, no way)
I ain’t gon’ let nothing get in my way
No matter what nobody has to say

Feels so good, when you’re doing all the things that you want to do
Get the best out of life, treat yourself to something new
It’s a really good thing to say
That I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I won’t change my life, my life’s just fine

So I like what I see when I’m looking at me
When I’m walking past the mirror
No stress through the night, at a time in my life
Ain’t worried about if you feel it
Got my head on straight, I got my mind right
I ain’t gonna let you kill it
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just…..

Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
Just fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, fine, ooooh
You see I wouldn’t change my life, my life’s just fine

  1. I am learning ASL but I must admit videos like this make me feel stupid. I know most of the signs used but my brain can not process all of that info that fast. Maybe I am too old or maxed out my brains memory capacity? Anyway- I will keep trying. My "baby" signing skills are getting better. Good thing for me that baby's don't sign really fast. :-)

  2. No, no..don't let it make you feel that way. It's too fast for me, too. I depend on the lyrics below the video to fill in all the rest. :-) Everyone has their own speed. A rule of thumb..when signing with others, sign at the speed YOU are most comfortable with and they will adjust their own speed to accommodate your level, your speed. Don't get discouraged, Neil. Don't be comparing your skills with someone who was raised with ASL or who has been signing for many years. We all start somewhere. Keep at it, and have fun
