Jennifer Lopez sang "Happy Birthday" to the leader of the former Soviet bloc country Turkmenistan during a show on Saturday night, but her representative said Lopez wouldn't have performed there at all if she had known there were human rights issues in the country.

A statement released Sunday by her publicist to the Associated Press said the event was hosted by the China National Petroleum Corp. and wasn't a political event.

However, the country's leader, Gurbanguly Berdimuhamedow, did attend. Berdimuhamedow has been criticized for oppressive rule by human rights organizations. Human Rights Watch describes Turkmenistan as "among the most repressive in the world."

After a United Nations visit last month, Assistant Secretary-General for Human Rights Ivan Simonovic said the country had made progress in the area of human rights, but "a lot more work is needed to complete this process and to ensure practice is in line with international standards."

Lopez's publicist says the event was vetted by Lopez's staff: "Had there been knowledge of human rights issues any kind, Jennifer would not have attended."

The birthday serenade was a last-minute request made by the corporation to Lopez before she took the stage, and she "graciously obliged," the statement said.

Lopez has no other performances scheduled in the country, her publicist said. Her performance fee wasn't disclosed.

Flyleaf - Something Better lyrics

Aren’t we all trying to become something better

Oh, don’t you know

Every time you take my hand, I become someone better

Oh, don’t I know

Can spend the night inside our soul

It’s so beautiful at all

The howling wolves between my ears

Go silent when I hear you call

My darkness fades away

If you speak I hear you call

Not just the words you say

And now I’m feeling so happy

Aren’t we all trying to become something better

(Something better)

Oh, don’t you know

Every time you take my hand, I become someone better

Oh, don’t I know

Come spend the day, watch the sunshine play

Off the light that’s in your eyes

A lonely bird chirps a cheerful word

As he floats across the sky

My darkness fades away

If you speak I hear you call

Not just the words you say

And now I’m feeling so haWpy

Aren’t we all trying to become something better

(Something better)

Oh, don’t you know

Every time you take my hand I become someone better

Oh, don’t I know better

She said don’t forget the person you are

Seem to remember chasing falling stars

Up until you found me lyng on the ground and whispered

Aren’t we all trying to become something better

(Something better)

Oh, don’t you know

Every time you take my hand I become someone better

Someone better

Oh, don’t I know

Aren’t we all trying to become something better

(Something better)

Oh, don’t you know

Every time you take my hand I become someone better

Someone better

Oh, don’t I know

Tom Odell - Sirens lyrics

Tear me down

Tell me I don't need to fear

Tell me now

Tell me some bodies near

'Cause sirens

Sirens are all I hear

They keep calling out

Calling out someone's name

Keep calling out

And all you can do is pray

That these sirens

Sirens don't come our way

Or we'll be

All run run running away

We'll be

All run run running away

All run run running away

When sirens they come our way

It's raining now

Raining on someone's fears

Raining down

I've heard the rain is the city's tears

But these sirens

These sirens are all I hear

And they keep calling out

Calling out someone's name

Keep calling out

And all I can do is pray

That these sirens

Sirens don't come our way

Or we'll be

All run run running away

We'll be

All run run running away

All run run running away

When sirens they come our way

Sleeping With Sirens - Feel lyrics

And I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah, I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah

I used to be a ghost

Floating aimlessly

So they couldn't see

When I think hurts the most

I felt like it made me hate me

But I won't apologize for being different

I, I can, can be who I am in you

I felt so dead inside

But now I feel so alive

For the first time

And I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah, AND I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah

It feels so good

I could go, oh I'd go there

Take me anywhere

Cause this person, I don't know

This one that's staring back at me

It's not who I wanna be

But I wont apologize for being different

I, I can, can be who I am while thay

Cover up the dead inside

I, I feel so alive

For the first time ohh

And I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah, oh, and I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah

Could you helped me find

Helped me find a way?

Could you help me find

Help me find a way?

Could you help me find

Help me find a way?

Could you help me find

Help me find a way?

And I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah, oh and I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah

(And I feel)

You'll never bring me down

You'll never tear me up

(I feel so alive again)

I am alive

I am alive agian

Yeah, oh and I feel

I feel so alive again

Yeah
