Grandfather's Clock The Clock Poem Sung to: “I’m Lumberjack” My grand-father's clock was too large for the shelf, So it stood ninety years on the floor; I'm in the clock crew and I'm okay! It was tall-er by half than the old man himself, I tick all night and I tick all day. though it weighed not a pen-ny weight more. I've got two hands, I'm having a ball, It was bought on the morn of the day he was born, Because I've got no arms at all! and was al-ways his treasure and pride; But it stopp'd short nev-er to go a-gain My big hand can move sixty minutes in one When the old man died. hour, Ninety years, without slumbering (tick, toc, tick, toc) I'm the one with the strength and power. His life seconds numbering (tick, toc, tick, toc) My small hand isn't quite as fast. It stopp'd Short never to go a-gain, If they were in a race, it would come last! When the old man died. It takes so long just to get around (12 hours you know), The Faces Of The Clock It's careful, small, and slow. The Big Hand is busy Now meet my friends that help me tick-tock, But the Small Hand has power. Half past, quarter past, quarter to and o'clock. The large one counts the minutes. But the Little One names the hour. When both Hands stand at the top together, Hickory Dickory Dock (again) It's sure to be Twelve O'clock. But whether HIckory Dickory Dock, That's twelve at noon or twelve at night The mouse ran up the clock; Depends on if it's dark or light. The clock struck One, The mouse ran down, Hickory Dickory Dock! Clock Song Sung to: "The Wheels on the Bus" Hickory Dickory Dock, The hands on the clock go round and round, The mouse ran up the clock; Round and round, round and round. The clock struck Two, The hands on the clock go round and round. The mouse said BOO! To tell us the time. Hickory Dickory Dock! The short hand on the clock Goes from number to number, Hickory Dickory Dock, Number to number, number to number. The mouse ran up the clock; The short hand on the clock The clock struck Three, Goes from number to number. The mouse said Wheeeee... To tell us the hour. As he slid down the clock!

The advent of rock ’n’ roll during the mid-1950s brought about enormous changes in American popular music. B. Styles previously considered on the margins of mainstream popular music were infiltrating the center and eventually came to dominate it. C. R&B and country music recordings were no longer geared toward a specialized market. 1. Began to be heard on mainstream pop radio 2. Could be purchased nationwide in music stores that catered to the general public D. Misconceptions 1. It is important to not mythologize or endorse common misconceptions about the emergence of rock ’n’ roll. a) Rock ’n’ roll was not a new style of music or even any single style of music.

II. The Rise of Rhythm & Blues and the Teenage Market A. The target audience for rock ’n’ roll during the 1950s consisted of baby boomers, Americans born after World War II. 1. Relatively young target audience 2. An audience that shared some specific important characteristics of group cultural identity: a) Recovering from the trauma of World War II—return to normalcy b) Growing up in the relative economic stability and prosperity of the 1950s yet under the threat of atomic war between the United States and the USSR CHAPTER EIGHT: “ROCK AROUND THE CLOCK”: ROCK ’N’ ROLL, 1954–1959 c) The first generation to grow up with television—a new outlet for instantaneous nationwide distribution of music d) The Cold War with the Soviet Union was in full swing and fostered the anticommunist movement in the United States.

  • “Happy Days Are Here Again”: the Song That Launched FDR's
    “Happy Days Are Here Again”: The Song That Launched FDR’s Presidency In 1929, just prior to the Great Crash of the New York Stock Market, Milton Ager and Jack Yellen recorded, “Happy Days Are Here Again.” The song was an instant hit and would remain a popular refrain throughout the 1930s, as the theme of radio shows sponsored by Lucky Strike cigarettes. In 1932, the song became closely associated to the presidential campaign of New York Democratic Governor Franklin Delano Roosevelt in his effort to unseat incumbent President Herbert Hoover. When Roosevelt arrived in Chicago to accept his party’s nomination for president, he entered the room to the sound of “Happy Days Are Hear Again.” The song and its cheerful lyrics matched Roosevelt’s upbeat tempo and stood in stark contrast to Hoover’s demeanor. In addition, the song resonated throughout the nation as most Americans were looking to Roosevelt in hopes that his pledge of “a new deal for the American people” would usher them safely through the Great Depression into a new era of economic prosperity. “Happy Days Are Here Again” has long been associated with the Democratic party, and remains a sentimental favorite for its political leaders and supporters such as singer and actress Barbara Streisand, who has recorded her own version of the song. “Happy Days Are Here Again” is listed as #47 on the Recording Industry Association of America's list of "Songs of the Century". ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- “Happy Days Are Here Again” by Jack Yellen & Milton Alger As recorded by Leo Reisman and His Orchestra, with Lou Levin, vocal (November 1929) for the 1930 MGM movie Chasing Rainbows .
