Lean on Me Bill Withers Lean on Me Bill Withers Sometimes in our lives we all have pain We all have sorrow But if we are wise We know that there's always tomorrow Please swallow your pride If I have things you need to borrow For no one can fill those of your needs That you won't let show Lean on me, when you're not strong And I'll be your friend I'll help you carry on For it won't be long 'Til I'm gonna need Somebody to lean on You just call on me brother, when you need a hand We all need somebody to lean on I just might have a problem that you'll understand We all need somebody to lean on Lean on me, when you're not strong You just call on me brother, when you need a hand We all need somebody to lean on I just might have a problem that you'll understand We all need somebody to lean on If there is a load you have to bear That you can't carry I'm right up the road I'll share your load If you just call me Lean on me, when you're not strong Call me, call me, call me, call me. "Lean on Me" is a song written and recorded by American singer-songwriter Bill Withers (1938-2020). It was released in April 1972 as the first single from his second album, Still Bill. It was his only number one single on both the soul singles and the Billboard Hot 100. It is ranked number 208 on Rolling Stone's list of "The 500 Greatest Songs of All Time". Numerous other versions have been recorded, and it is one of only nine songs to have reached No. 1 in the US Singles Charts with versions recorded by two different artists – Bill Withers and Club Nouveau.

Oranges and lemons Pancakes and Fritters Say the bells of St Clement's Say the bells of St Peter's You owe me five farthings Two sticks and an apple Say the bells of St Martin's Say the bells of White Chapel When will you pay me?

To chop off your head! "Oranges and Lemons" is a traditional English nursery rhyme, folksong, and singing game which refers to the bells of several churches, all within or close to the City of London. It is listed in the Roud Folk Song Index as No 13190. Keep Holding On Avril Lavigne You're not alone, together we stand. I'll be by your side you know I'll take your hand. When it gets cold, and it feels like the end, There's no place to go you know I won't give in. No, I won't give in. Keep holding on 'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through. Just stay strong 'Cause you know I'm here for you, I'm here for you. There's nothing you can say, Nothing you can do. There's no other way when it comes to the truth So keep holding on 'Cause you know we'll make it through, we'll make it through. So far away, I wish you were here. Before it's too late this could all disappear. Before the doors close and it comes to an end, With you by my side, I will fight and defend. I'll fight and defend. Keep holding on… Hear me when I say, when I say I believe. Nothing's gonna change, Nothing's gonna change destiny. Whatever's meant to be will work out perfectly. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah La da da da… Keep holding on… [♫♫] Keep holding on [♫♫] Keep holding on There's nothing you could say, Nothing you can do. There's no other way when it comes to the truth So keep holding on 'Cause you know we'll make it through, We'll make it through. "Keep Holding On" is a power ballad recorded by Canadian singer-songwriter Avril Lavigne and is the theme song for the 2006 film Eragon. It appears on Lavigne's third studio album, The Best Damn Thing, which was released in 2007. Lavigne has described the rest of the album as being upbeat and heavy in comparison to "Keep Holding On". The song was written by Lavigne and Lukasz "Dr. Luke" Gottwald; Luke also produced the single. "Keep Holding On" was one of the songs short-listed for the "Best Original Song" category at the 79th Academy Awards, but it was not among the final nominees. With a little help from my friends Lennon/McCartney What would you think if I sang out of tune? Would you stand up and walk out on me? Lend me your ears and I'll sing you a song And I'll try not to sing out of key. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends. Mm, I get high with a little help from my friends. Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends. What do I do when my love is away? Does it worry you to be alone? How do I feel by the end of the day? Are you sad because you're on your own? No, I get by with a little help from my friends. Mm, get high with a little help from my friends. Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends. Do you need anybody? I need somebody to love. Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love. Would you believe in a love at first sight? Yes, I'm certain that it happens all the time. What do you see when you turn out the light? I can't tell you, but I know it's mine. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends. Mm, get high with a little help from my friends. Oh, I'm gonna try with a little help from my friends. Do you need anybody? I just need someone to love. Could it be anybody? I want somebody to love. Oh, I get by with a little help from my friends. Mm, gonna try with a little help from my friends. Oh, I get high with a little help from my friends. Yes, I get by with a little help from my friends, With a little help from my friends. "With a Little Help from My Friends" is a song by the Beatles from their 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. It was written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney and sung by drummer Ringo Starr, his lead vocal for the album. As the second track on the album, it segues from the applause of the title track. A subsequent recording of the track by Joe Cocker became a hit single in 1968 and an anthem for the Woodstock era. "With a little help" was ranked number 311 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Somewhere Over the Rainbow/ Wonderful World Harburg & Arlen / Weiss & Thiele. Inspired by Israel Kamakawiwo'ole Somewhere over the rainbow Way up high, There's a land that I heard of Once in a lullaby. Somewhere over the rainbow Sky are blue. And the dreams that you dare to dream Really do come true. Someday I wish upon a star And wake up where the clouds are far behind me. Where trouble melts like lemon drops High above the chimney top, That's where you'll find me. Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly. Birds fly over the rainbow, Why then, oh why can't I? Well, I see trees of green, red roses too, I see them bloom for me and you, And I think to myself What a wonderful world. I see skies of blue and clouds of white, The bright blessed of day, The dark sacred night, And I think to myself what a wonderful world. The colours of the rainbow so pretty in the sky And also on the faces of people passing by. I see friends shaking hands saying, "How do you do?" They're really saying, "I love you". I hear babies cry and I watch them grow. They'll learn much more then I'll ever know And I think to myself what a wonderful world Someday I wish upon a star Wake up where the clouds are far behind me, Where trouble melts like lemon drops, Away above the chimney tops That's where you'll find me. Somewhere over the rainbow Bluebirds fly, Birds fly over the rainbow, Why then, oh why can't I If happy little bluebirds fly beyond the rainbow, Why, oh why, can't I? .

  • The Anniversary Tour to London 2011
    The Anniversary Tour to London 2011 Welcome to the first assembly of the new school year! I welcome in particular the new teachers, the Form 1 boys and Form 6 students who joined in September and for whom this is their first assembly at SPC. It has been a long time since the Hall was closed for renovation last June. There are still a few jobs to be completed and some specific items to be added and these details will be carried out in the near future. It is our aim to have the Hall fully operational by Speech Day on the 2nd of December. I imagine that you have been disappointed not hearing my talks at assembly on Monday mornings! However, you must have been pleased to see that I continued to write a weekly address and that they were uploaded onto the College website each Monday afternoon. If you have not had an opportunity as yet to read these talks you can still find them on the website! Last week we were very fortunate in hosting five students and two teachers from Trinity Pawling School in New York State. Trinity Pawling is a boarding school for boys located about 100 kilometres to the north of New York City. Earlier this year Mr. Ryan, Miss Chan and six of your classmates spent a week at Trinity Pawling and returned with wonderful experiences and many memories from their trip. Last week was our turn to extend this warm hospitality. Last week’s visit was also a first for our College in that it was the first time that we have provided homestay to our visitors.

  • Biu Withers by Rob Bowman He Was the Leading Figure in the Nascent Black Singer-Songwriter Movement of the Early 1970S
    PERFORMERS BiU Withers By Rob Bowman He was the leading figure in the nascent black singer-songwriter movement of the early 1970s. BILL WITHERS WAS SIMPLY NOT BORN TO PLAY THE record industry game. His oft-repeated descriptor for A&R men is “antagonistic and redundant.” Not surprisingly, most A&R men at Columbia Records, the label he recorded for beginning in 1975, considered him “difficult.” Yet when given the freedom to follow his muse, Withers wrote, sang, and in many cases produced some of our most enduring classics, including “Ain’t No Sunshine,” “Lean on Me,” “Use Me,” “Lovely Day,” “Grandma’s Hands,” and “Who Is He (and What Is He to You).” ^ “Not a lot of people got me,” Withers recently mused. “Here I was, this black guy playing an acoustic guitar, and I wasn’t playing the gut-bucket blues. People had a certain slot that they expected you to fit in to.” ^ Withers’ story is about as improb­ able as it could get. His first hit, “Ain’t No Sunshine,” recorded in 1971 when he was 33, broke nearly every pop music rule. Instead of writing words for a bridge, Withers audaciously repeated “I know” twenty-six times in a row. Moreover, the two-minute song had no introduction and was released as a throwaway B-side. Produced by Stax alumni Booker T. Jones for Sussex Records, the single’s struc­ ture, sound, and sentiment were completely unprecedented and pos­ sessed a melody and lyric that tapped into the Zeitgeist of the era. Like much of Withers’ work, it would ultimately prove to be timeless.

  • Bill Carrothers Press Pack
    605 Ridge Road Mass City, MI 49948 Bill Carrothers (906)883-3820 www.bridgeboymusic.com [email protected] Penguin Guide To Jazz on CD 8th and 9th editions (2006 and 2008) (4 star rating system) Carrothers is a class act, already endowed with a formidable breadth of experience, and able to fit in with most contemporary jazz situations. That's often a problem when it comes to helming your own dates, but these records aren't short on confidence or ideas. While the session in Go Jazz's After Hours series is a bit one- paced - a dozen ballads all negotiated at a slow walk - Carrothers lays bare the material and breaks it into pristine pieces. One to sample a few tracks at a time. It's rather better recorded than some of the entries in this series. Duets With Bill Stewart ★★★ The Duets With Bill Stewart record reduces the cast to two, although since Stewart and Carrothers have worked together many times there's no sense of anything missing. The material's a good deal more diverse in both source and treatment; not many modern pianists would think of playing Puttin' on the Ritz, here played with left hand boogie figures which pop in and out of the improvising, or The Whiffenpoof Song. Oddest piece might be I Apologize, in which Stewart rattles out a tem- poless tattoo before Carrothers enters to play the tune almost straight. A lot of the music sounds like a private dialogue, and it's hard to get inside. Swing Sing Songs ★★★1/2 Swing Sing Songs is an extraordinary programme.

  • Wren and the English Baroque
    What is English Baroque? • An architectural style promoted by Christopher Wren (1632-1723) that developed between the Great Fire (1666) and the Treaty of Utrecht (1713). It is associated with the new freedom of the Restoration following the Cromwell’s puritan restrictions and the Great Fire of London provided a blank canvas for architects. In France the repeal of the Edict of Nantes in 1685 revived religious conflict and caused many French Huguenot craftsmen to move to England. • In total Wren built 52 churches in London of which his most famous is St Paul’s Cathedral (1675-1711). Wren met Gian Lorenzo Bernini (1598-1680) in Paris in August 1665 and Wren’s later designs tempered the exuberant articulation of Bernini’s and Francesco Borromini’s (1599-1667) architecture in Italy with the sober, strict classical architecture of Inigo Jones. • The first truly Baroque English country house was Chatsworth, started in 1687 and designed by William Talman. • The culmination of English Baroque came with Sir John Vanbrugh (1664-1726) and Nicholas Hawksmoor (1661-1736), Castle Howard (1699, flamboyant assemble of restless masses), Blenheim Palace (1705, vast belvederes of massed stone with curious finials), and Appuldurcombe House, Isle of Wight (now in ruins). Vanburgh’s final work was Seaton Delaval Hall (1718, unique in its structural audacity). Vanburgh was a Restoration playwright and the English Baroque is a theatrical creation. In the early 18th century the English Baroque went out of fashion. It was associated with Toryism, the Continent and Popery by the dominant Protestant Whig aristocracy. The Whig Thomas Watson-Wentworth, 1st Marquess of Rockingham, built a Baroque house in the 1720s but criticism resulted in the huge new Palladian building, Wentworth Woodhouse, we see today.

  • Such Stuff Podcast Season 7, Episode 1: She's Behind You! [Music Plays
    Such Stuff podcast Season 7, Episode 1: She’s behind you! [Music plays] Imogen Greenberg: Hello and welcome to another episode of Such Stuff the podcast from Shakespeare's Globe. Now that it's officially December the festive season can truly begin. With all the promise of a new year and the renewal it brings on the horizon we wanted to spend a few weeks cosying up against the dark nights and the frosty mornings and take a look at some of the theatre and the storytelling that brings us together at this time of year. So this week on the podcast we'll be turning our attention to that great theatrical festive tradition panto. With the return of our very own festive show Christmas at the (Snow) Globe, we decided to delve into the rich history and contemporary stylings of panto in all of its many forms. So we chatted to artists and theatre-makers creating panto today, about why this convivial form is so important this year of all years. We reminisced about pantos of Christmas past and discussed the joys and the pitfalls of tradition. So stay tuned for the first of our advent offerings here on Such Stuff. [Music plays] First up Christmas at the (Snow) Globe. Last year Sandi and Jenifer Toksvig created this extraordinary festive show bespoke for the Globe Theatre to celebrate all the joyous wonders of the season. This year we're bringing it back, though with some substantial changes due to current restrictions. So we caught up with Jen and Ess Grange who was part of the company for Christmas at the (Snow) Globe last year as an audience elf, ushering the Christmas spirit into the yard, to talk about audience participation and how we're ushering the warm embrace of the Globe Theatre into people's homes this year.

  • Song & Music in the Movement
    Transcript: Song & Music in the Movement A Conversation with Candie Carawan, Charles Cobb, Bettie Mae Fikes, Worth Long, Charles Neblett, and Hollis Watkins, September 19 – 20, 2017. Tuesday, September 19, 2017 Song_2017.09.19_01TASCAM Charlie Cobb: [00:41] So the recorders are on and the levels are okay. Okay. This is a fairly simple process here and informal. What I want to get, as you all know, is conversation about music and the Movement. And what I'm going to do—I'm not giving elaborate introductions. I'm going to go around the table and name who's here for the record, for the recorded record. Beyond that, I will depend on each one of you in your first, in this first round of comments to introduce yourselves however you wish. To the extent that I feel it necessary, I will prod you if I feel you've left something out that I think is important, which is one of the prerogatives of the moderator. [Laughs] Other than that, it's pretty loose going around the table—and this will be the order in which we'll also speak—Chuck Neblett, Hollis Watkins, Worth Long, Candie Carawan, Bettie Mae Fikes. I could say things like, from Carbondale, Illinois and Mississippi and Worth Long: Atlanta. Cobb: Durham, North Carolina. Tennessee and Alabama, I'm not gonna do all of that. You all can give whatever geographical description of yourself within the context of discussing the music. What I do want in this first round is, since all of you are important voices in terms of music and culture in the Movement—to talk about how you made your way to the Freedom Singers and freedom singing.

  • Why You Treat Me So Bad“
    Club Nouveau „Why You Treat Me So Bad“ Analyse von Musikaufnahmen Benjamin Mütsch SS 2020 ANALYSE VON MUSIKAUFNAHMEN !1 Inhaltsverzeichnis Inhaltsverzeichnis 2 Einleitung und Titelwahl 3 „Contemporary R’n’B“ und „New Jack Swing“ 3 Über die Formation „Club Nouveau“ 4 Analyse des Titels „Why You Treat Me So Bad“ 5 Mix und Master 7 Sampling des Originals 9 Fazit 10 Quellen 11 ANALYSE VON MUSIKAUFNAHMEN !2 Einleitung und Titelwahl Im Seminar „Analyse von Musikaufnahmen“ bestand die Aufgabenstellung darin, dass jeder Teilnehmer ein Musikstück bzw. eine Komposition hinsichtlicher verschiedener Aspekte analysiert und vorstellt. Es sollte ein geeigneter Titel gefunden werden, Hintergründe über den Interpreten präsentiert werden, sowie die Aufnahme im Bezug auf Aufbau, Harmonie, Melodie, Instrumentierung, Mischung und Mastering analysiert und präsentiert werden. Ebenso konnten Vergleichsversionen, Coverversionen oder Neuinterpretationen vorgestellt und verglichen werden. Da das Thema „Sampling“ auch im AM-Studium immer wieder ein Thema ist, fiel die Wahl des Autors auf ein Stück, welches seit seiner Veröffentlichung im Jahre 1986 häufig als Inspiration für neue Werke diente und somit zur inoffiziellen „Blaupause“ des Contemporary R’n’B wurde. Verschiedene Elemente des Titels „Why You Treat Me So Bad“ des Interpreten „Club Nouveau“ wurden mehrfach in anderen Produktionen eingesetzt, vom Gesang (in Teilen), über die Hauptmelodie („Hookline“) bis hin zum kompletten Intro. In der vorliegenden Arbeit soll nicht nur der genannte Titel analysiert werden, sondern auch eine Einordnung hinsichtlich Genre erfolgen, ebenso wie angewandte Produktionstechniken, die die Stilistik maßgeblich geprägt haben. „Contemporary R’n’B“ und „New Jack Swing“ Mit dem Begriff „Contemporary R’n’B“, also zeitgenössischem R’n’B, wurde ein Genre bezeichnet, welches seine Ursprünge im afroamerikanischen Rhythm and Blues hat.
