[Verse 3: T.I.]
One thing I ask of you
Let me be the one you back that ass to
Yo, from Malibu, to Paribu
Yeah, had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you
So hit me up when you passing through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Swag on, even when you dress casual
I mean it's not almost   unbearable
Then, honey you're not there when I'm
With my foresight bitch you pay me by
Nothing like your last guy, he too square for you
He don't smack that ass and pull your hair like that
So I just watch and wait for you to salute
But you didn't pick
Not many women can refuse this pimpin'
But I'm a nice guy, but you get it if you get with me
 
[Bridge: Robin Thicke]
Shake the vibe, get down, get up
Do it like it hurt, like it hurt
What you doing like word

It always works for me Dakota to Decatur, uh huh
No more pretending
Hey, hey, hey

[Chorus: Robin Thicke]
I always wanted a good girl
I know you want it
I know you want it

You're a good girl
Can't let it get past me
You're far from plastic
Talk about getting blasted
I hate these blurred lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good girl
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty
Go ahead, get at me

One thing I ask of you
Let me be the one you back that ass to
Yo, from Malibu, to Paribu
Yeah, had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you
So hit me up when you passing through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Swag on, even when you dress   casual
I mean it's not almost unbearable
Then, honey you're not there when I'm
With my foresight bitch you pay me by
Nothing like your last guy, he too square for you
He don't smack that ass and pull your hair like that
So I just watch and wait for you to salute
But you didn't pick
Not many women can refuse this pimpin'
But I'm a nice guy, but you get it if you get with me

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

Hey baby

Yeah, when I first saw that bikini top on her
She's poppin' right out of the South Georgia water
Thought, "Oh, good lord, she had them long tanned legs"
Couldn't help myself so I walked up and said

Baby you a 
songDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new 
ChevyDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it
So baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

She was sippin' on southern and singin' Marshall Tucker
We were falling in love in the sweet heart of summer
She hopped right up into the cab of my truck and said
"Fire it up, let's go get this thing stuck"

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my 
windowsDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new Chevy with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it
So baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

When that summer sun fell to its knees
I looked at her and she looked at me
And I turned on those KC lights and drove all night
Cause it felt so right, her and I, man we felt so right

I put it in park and
Grabbed my 
guitarDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png
And strummed a couple chords
And sang from the heart
Girl you sure got the beat in my chest bumpin'
Hell I can't get you out of my head

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new Chevy with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it

[Verse 3: T.I.]
One thing I ask of you
Let me be the one you back that ass to
Yo, from Malibu, to Paribu
Yeah, had a bitch, but she ain't bad as you
So hit me up when you passing through
I'll give you something big enough to tear your ass in two
Swag on, even when you dress casual
I mean it's not almost   unbearable
Then, honey you're not there when I'm
With my foresight bitch you pay me by
Nothing like your last guy, he too square for you
He don't smack that ass and pull your hair like that
So I just watch and wait for you to salute
But you didn't pick
Not many women can refuse this pimpin'
But I'm a nice guy, but you get it if you get with me
 
[Bridge: Robin Thicke]
Shake the vibe, get down, get up
Do it like it hurt, like it hurt
What you doing like word
 
[Pre-chorus: Robin Thicke]
Baby can you breathe? I got this from Jamaica
It always works for me Dakota to Decatur, uh huh
No more pretending
Hey, hey, hey
Cause now you winning
Hey, hey, hey
Here's our beginning
 
[Chorus: Robin Thicke]
I always wanted a good girl
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
You're a good girl
Can't let it get past me
You're far from plastic
Talk about getting blasted
I hate these blurred lines
I know you want it
I know you want it
I know you want it
But you're a good girl
The way you grab me
Must wanna get nasty
Go ahead, get at me
 
[Outro: Pharrell]
Everybody get up
Everybody get up
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey
Hey, hey, hey

     F#              C#              G#m                  B
     Somebody once told me the world is gonna roll me
     I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed
     She was looking kind of dumb with   her finger and her thumb
     In the shape of an "L" on her forehead
                     F#                                           C#
     Well, the years start coming and they don't   stop coming
     G#m                            B
     Fed to the rules and I hit the ground running
     Didn't make sense not to live for fun
       Your brain gets smart but your head gets dumb
     So much to do much to see
     So what's wrong with taking the back streets
     You'll never know if you don't go
     You'll never shine if you don't glow
                      F#              B                    F#m/D        B
                      Hey now, you're an all-star, get your game on, go play
                      F#              B                    F#m/D        B  
                      Hey now, you're a rock star, get the show on, get paid

                      All that glitters is gold
                      B              F#        E6       B
                      Only shooting stars break the mold...
 
     It's a cool place and they say it gets colder
     You're bundled up now, wait 'til you get older
     But the meteor men beg to differ
     Judging by the hole in the satellite picture
     The ice we skate is getting pretty thin
     The waters gettin' warm so you might as well swim
     My world's on fire, how about yours
     That's the way I like it and I never get bored

                        And all that glitters is gold
                        B                     F#      E6
                        Only shooting stars...
 
     Somebody once asked could I spare some change for gas
     I need to get myself away from this place
     I said yep what a concept I could use a little fuel myself
     And we could all use a little change
                     F#                                           B
     Well, the years start coming and they don't stop coming
     F#m/D                            B

erse 1:
       E                                   A -                              E          A
Well I woke up to the sound of silence and guns
Were cutting like knives in a fist fight
And I found you with a bottle of wine
Your head in the curtains and heart like the 4th of July
                   E     -               F#m  -       G#m                 A
You swore and said we are not - We are not shining stars - This I know  - cause I never said we are
            E  -     A                                                E          A  
Though I've never been through hell like that - I've closed enough windows to know you can never look back
Chorus:

If you're lost and alone, or you're sinkin like a stone - Carry on

May your past be the sound of your feet upon the ground
Carry on

Verse 2:
     E                                           A
So I met up with some friends at the edge of the night
              E          A
At a bar off 75
       E                                            A
And we talked and talked about how our parents will die
             E                    A
All our neighbors and wives
Pre-chorus:
        E  -      F#m   -        G#m                        A
But I'd like to think - I can cheat it all
To make up for the times I've been cheated on
And it's nice to know
When I was left for dead
I was found and I know not these streets
     A                B
I am not the ghost you want to be

SEE THE SUN – CARRY ON –WE ARE YOUNG
F     Em            Dm            C
  For once there is nothing up my sleeve
  Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me
\I used to run at first sight of the sun
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up
F          Em            Dm                C
  The city outside still sounds like it's on fire
  You put on new sheets, the white flag of a Saturday night
I know we stayed up talking in circles
But I like to think the symmetry will keep me close to you
F         Em                    Dm                  C
  For everyone, I'm out to prove wrong, you keep the light on
F          Em              Dm              C
  The only one, you now me better than the truth
  So despite what I've done I pray to God that we can move on
           F               Em                   Dm             C
Cause thus far you are the best thing that this life is yet to lose
F     Em            Dm            C
  For once there is nothing up my sleeve
  Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me
I used to run at first sight of the sun
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up
  F        Em          Dm     C
I lay here waiting for you to wake up
 
   F            Em        Dm              C
So if you're gonna leave, if you're gonna go - I can't bear to sleep without you in my arms -  I know we got caught up slipping through a crowd of people and losers
But you must not let them take you, they don't know you like I do
 
F     Em            Dm            C
  For once there is nothing up my sleeve
  Just some scars from a life that used to trouble me
I used to run at first sight of the sun
Now I lay here waiting for you to wake up
I lay here waiting for you to wake up
       Am               G                      C                     F
Do you remember when we stayed up till the sun stretched through the room
I used to blame it on the queens walking down 7th Avenue
It's been years now since we moved I've gotten through with an excuse
You know I try not to speak superlatives but it's imá¹—ossible to you
(Instrumental Interlude)
F             Em      Dm          C
  The city outside is nothing but a flicker now
  You see our friends to bed, you turn out the lights
  I start to think you'll make a beautiful mother, I
  F            Em                   Dm             C
I like to think I have everything I want from this life.

Capo 1 – ALL ALONE – WHY AM I THE ONE
 
C         G              Am               F
I fell in love with a wind-up souvenir
C                     G                  Am                 F
I bought it downtown as I was on my way to meet you
C                          G                       Am                     F
She sounds like the songs you used to sing to put me to sleep but
      Am                                 F                         G
But now that you're gone, she's all that I've left to hold
 
 
        C        F     G
And I feel so all alone
C           F      Am                   G
No one's gonna fix me when I'm broke
C                             F
How do you cry with inanimate eyes?
         Am                                  G
You're never gonna smile with the way that you are
         C        F    G
And I feel so all alone
 
 
C                 G
I gave her to you
                    Am             F
I thought you might appreciate
C                         G
The way that she dances
                 Am                F
The painted look upon her face
C                                       G
She must have come from the sun
              Am                         F
I want to take her through the park
                 Am                 F
Where she'd tell me I'm all, all that she wants
    G
If she could even talk
 
 
 
        C        F     G
And I feel so all alone
C           F      Am                   G
No one's gonna fix me when I'm broke
C                             F
How do you cry with inanimate eyes?
         Am                                  G
You're never gonna smile with the way that you are
         C        F    G
And I feel so all alone
   C        F    G
I feel so all alone


   B   D#m  G#m   F#
...sleeping on my side
 
 
F#
I finish kissing my dad
B
So now I head back up the steps
Thinking about where I've been
I mean it's always never like this
I wanna feel with the season
I guess it makes sense
B              D#m       G#m
That my life's become as vapid as
B           D#m    G#m
A night out in Los Angeles
B          D#m   G#m  F#m  C#
And I just wanna stay in bed
 
 
B                 F#
I hold you like I used to
B                  F#
You know that I am home
B                 F#
So darling if you love me

She's got enough on her mind
 
That she feels no sorrow
I let my faith fill the air
Now she's rolling down the window
Never been one to hold on
But I need a last breath

So I ask if she remembers when
B           D#m      G#m
She used to come and visit

Man, we were fools to think that nothing could go wrong

INTRO (2x)
WE ARE YOUNG
[VERSE 1]
 
F
Give me a second I, I need to get my story straight,
   Dm7
My friends are in the bathroom getting higher than the Empire State,
   Gm7
My lover she is waiting for me just across the bar,
               A#                       C
My seat's been taken by some sunglasses asking 'bout a scar, and
 
F                                      Dm7
  I know I gave it to you months ago;    I know you're trying to forget.
       Gm7
But be-tween the drinks and subtle things, the holes in my apologies, you know,
A#                            C
   I'm trying hard to take it back
 
 
[PRE-CHORUS]
 
             Gm           Am
so if by the time the bar closes
        Dm        Am/C    A#
and you feel like falling down
     A#        C
I'll carry you home 
 
 
[CHORUS x2]
 
   F      F   Am/E  Dm 
To-night, we  are   young
         Dm      Dm/E     A#
So let's set the world on fire; 
            A#
we can burn brighter   
         F/C   -> C
than the sun
 
THE GAMBLER
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bb
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bb
 
Bb Bb/A Gm
Slow down,
F         Eb                F   
we've got time left to be lazy
        Bb        Bb/A         Gm F     Eb                F
All the kids have bloomed from babies into flowers in our eyes.
          Bb    Bb/A  Gm    F      Eb                F
We've got fifty good years left to spend out in the garden
         Eb              Dm
I don't care to beg your pardon,
           Cm    F
We should live
           Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bb
until we die.
 
 
        Bb         Bb/A            Gm                   Dm Eb F
We were barely eighteen when we'd crossed collective hearts.
        Eb               Dm            Cm                 F
It was cold, but it got warm when you'd barely crossed my eye.
             Bb           Bb/A    Gm
and then you turned, put out your hand,
   F   Eb            F
and you asked me to dance.
        Eb          Dm                 Cm             F
 
 
I knew nothing of romance, but it was love at second sight.
 
  Eb                F                       Bb Bb/A Gm    F
I swear when I grow up, I won't just buy you a rose.
       Eb              F                             Bb Bb/A Gm F
I will buy the flower   shop, and you will never be lonely.
Eb                     F
Even if the sun stops waking up over the fields
             Bb               Bb/A            Gm
I will not leave, I will not leave 'till it's our time.
         Eb                         F                        Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bb
So just take my hand, you know that I will never leave your side.
 
Bb Bb/A Gm F Eb F Bb Bb/A Bb
 
 
           Bb         Bb/A            Gm                Dm Eb F
It was the winter of '86, and all the   fields had frozen over.
        Eb        Dm        Cm           F
So we moved to Arizona to save our only son
             Bb Bb/A Gm F
and now he's turning to a man,
            Eb                    F
although he thinks just like his mother,
      Eb                   Dm              Cm          F
 
he believes we're all just lovers he sees hope in everyone.
 
 
         Bb          Bb/A  Gm
And   even though she moved away,
    F         Eb              F
we always get calls from our daughter.
        Eb                 Dm
She has eyes just like her   father's
         Cm                  F
they are blue when skies are grey
              Bb        Bb/A   Gm   F
And just   like him, she never stops,
       Eb                F
Never takes the day for granted,
Eb                           Dm
works for everything that's handed to her,
Cm             F
Never once complains.
SOME NIGHTS

C                       F            C
Some nights I stay up cashing in my bad luck.
F             C         G
Some nights I call it a draw.
C                            F                 C
Some nights I wish that my lips could build a castle.
F              C                 G
Some nights I   wish they'd just fall off
 
       F         C           F         C
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost.
               F         C          G
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for, oh.
F          C          F        C
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Am                     G       (F  C  F  C  F  C  G x2)
Most nights, I don't know anymore

Running down the alley, I've got my eyes all over you, baby, Oh, baby 
 
E6                    A
Oh, rhythm of my heart is beating like a drum

But you turned into a lover and Mother what a lover your wore me out.

The force of love beginning

And our cups (we're up all night to get lucky)
To the stars (we're up all night to get lucky)

She's up all night 'til the sun
I'm up all night to get some
She's up all night for good fun
I'm up all night to get lucky

We're up all night 'til the sun
We're up all night to get some
We're up all night for good fun
We're up all night to get lucky

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

Hey baby

Yeah, when I first saw that bikini top on her
She's poppin' right out of the South Georgia water
Thought, "Oh, good lord, she had them long tanned legs"
Couldn't help myself so I walked up and said

Baby you a 
songDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new 
ChevyDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it
So baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

She was sippin' on southern and singin' Marshall Tucker
We were falling in love in the sweet heart of summer
She hopped right up into the cab of my truck and said
"Fire it up, let's go get this thing stuck"

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my 
windowsDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new Chevy with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it
So baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise

When that summer sun fell to its knees
I looked at her and she looked at me
And I turned on those KC lights and drove all night
Cause it felt so right, her and I, man we felt so right

I put it in park and
Grabbed my 
guitarDescription: http://images.intellitxt.com/ast/adTypes/icon1.png
And strummed a couple chords
And sang from the heart
Girl you sure got the beat in my chest bumpin'
Hell I can't get you out of my head

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you

Baby you a song
You make me wanna roll my windows down and cruise
Down a back road blowin' stop signs through the middle
Every little farm town with you
In this brand new Chevy with a lift kit
It'd look a hell lot better with you up in it
Come on

Kenny Loggins Medley
Rainbow Connection
G             Em      C         D
Why are there so many songs about rainbows,
G                   Em    C
and what's on the other side?
G             Em      C         D
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions.
G                   Em    C
Rainbows have nothing to hide.
C
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
D7  D
I know the wrong way to see.
C                D          G             Em
Some day we'll find it, the rainbow connection,
C               D             G
The lovers, the dreamers, and me.

performed by Paul Revere and the Raiders
A7 - 2 - / / D / / / 2 / / / 3
                             G
They took the whole Cherokee nation
                    D
Put us on this reservation
(for rest of verse, repeat pattern of above 2 lines):
Took away our ways of life
The tomahawk and the Bowie knife
Took away our native tongue
And taught their English to our young
And all the beads we made by hand
Are nowadays made in Japan
CHORUS:
G  (break)       / D (break)      /
 Cherokee people,   Cherokee tribe
G  (break)        / A7            D
 So proud to live,    so proud to die
Verse 2:
They took the whole Indian nation
Locked us on this reservation
Though I wear a shirt and tie
I'm still a red man deep inside
(chorus)
Verse 3:
But maybe someday when they've learned
The Cherokee nation will return
(vocal crescendo):
D
Will return, will return, will return, will return!

until i'm sure that you;ve been shown

but you might think i'm a big bad wolf so i wont
 
(howls)
 
 
Chorus:
what a big heart i have
the better to love you with
little red ridding hood

just to walk close by your side
maybe you'll see things my way
before we get to grandma's place
VERSE:
little red ridding hood
you sure are lookin good
you're everything a big bad wolf could want
(howls)
I mean bad

A SUMMER SONG  -   Chad and Jeremy
 
Verse:  A C#m D E
 
 Trees swayin' in the summer breeze
 Showin' off their silver leaves
 As we walked by
 
 Soft kisses on a summer's day
 Laughing all our cares away
 Just you and I
 Sweet sleepy warmth of summer nights
 Gazing at the distant lights
 In the starry sky
Chorus:
 D             E                    A        F#m
 They say that all good things must end some day
 Bm      E           F#m
 Autumn leaves must fall
     A                      C#7
 But don't you know that it hurts me so
     F#m            C#m Bm
 To say goodbye to you
 F#m                      E
 Wish you didn't have to go
 F#m       E
 No no no no
 
 And when the rain
 Beats against my window pane
 I'll think of summer days again
 And dream of you
 
 They say that all good things must end some day
 Autumn leaves must fall
 But don't you know that it hurts me so
 To say goodbye to you
 Wish you didn't have to go
 No no no no
 
 And when the rain
 Beats against my window pane
 I'll think of summer days again
 And dream of you
 And dream of you

Vanished from my hand,

Left me blindly here to stand but still not sleeping.

My weariness amazes me, I'm branded on my feet,

The water is wide I can not cross over

A ship there is and she sails the sea

Sailing as deep as  deep can be

But not so deep as the love I am in

I know not how I sink or swim
G                C                  G
I leaned my back against some young oak

[Notes: 1) This is a deceptively simple song; like Jefferson Airplane's
"Somebody To Love", there are only four chords in it, but no two verses
are identical.  2) Tommy James played all the guitar parts on this, and
he usually played in open E; you might want to try it.]

Emeli Sande – Clown
This is how my ears hear this song, I think the A minor7 and the Cadd9 both sound correct. The C minor at the end of the verses is correct but to mix it up a bit you could use C minorAdd9 instead. I will be adding this song to our duo set asap  as I think it's a fantastic ballad.

We cut the legs off of our pants

Threw our shoes into the ocean

Sit back and wave through the daylight

Sit back and wave through the daylight

Slip and slide on subway grates

These shoes are poor mans ice skates

Fall through like change in the daylight

Fall through like change in the daylight
 
I miss yellow lines in my roads
Some color on monochrome
Maybe I'll paint them in myself
Maybe I'll paint them in myself

These sidewalks liquid then stone
Building walls and an old pay phone
It rings like all through the daylight
It rings like all through the daylight
 
And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I'll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don't pick up my phone
'cause in the daylight anywhere feels like home
 
I have five clocks in my life
And only one has the time right
I'll just unplug it for today
I'll just unplug it for today
 
Open hydrant rolled down windows
This car might make a good old boat
And float down grand street in daylight
And float down grand street in daylight
 
And with just half of a sunburn
New yellow lines that I earned
Step back and here comes the night time
Step back and here comes the night time
And in the daylight we can hitchhike to Maine
I hope that someday I'll see without these frames
And in the daylight I don't pick up my phone

Some Nights
OVER AND OVER
F                     C          F                     C             F          C   G
Some nights, I stay up cashing in my bad luck; some nights, I call it a draw
F                     C                   F                         C
Some nights, I wish that my lips could build a castle
F                        C                       G
   Some nights, I wish they'd just fall off
 
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know anymore...
This is it, boys, this is war - what are we waiting for?
Why don't we break the rules already?
I was never one to believe the hype - save that for the black and white
I try twice as hard and I'm half as liked, but here they come again to jack my style
 
That's alright (that's alright).
I found a martyr in my bed tonight.
Stops my bones from wondering just who I, who I, who I
am, oh who am I, m-mm, m-mm.
 
Well, some nights I wish that this song would end.
'Cause I could use some friends for a change.
And some nights I'm scared you'll forget me again.
Some nights I always win (I always win)
 
But I still wake up, I still see your ghost
Oh Lord, I'm still not sure what I stand for
What do I stand for? What do I stand for?
Most nights, I don't know...
 
So this is it? I sold my soul for this?
Washed my hands of that for this?
I miss my mom and dad for this?
 
No. When I see stars, when I see stars, that's all they are
When I hear songs, they sound like a swan, so come on
Oh, come on. Oh, come on.
 
That is it, guys, that is all - five minutes in and I'm bored again
Ten years of this, I'm not sure if anybody understands
This is not one for the folks back home; I'm sorry to leave, mom, I had to go
Who the fuck wants to die alone all dried up in the desert sun?
 
My heart is breaking for my sister and the con that she called "love"
But when I look into my nephew's eyes...
Man, you wouldn't believe the most amazing things that can come from...
Some terrible nights.
 
The other night, you wouldn't believe the dream I just had about you and me
I called you up, but we'd both agree
It's for the best you didn't listen
It's for the best we get our distance...

Lovers Concerto The Toys Supremes Sarah Vaugn
The melody was adapted from "Minuet In G," a composition written by Christian Petzold. "Minuet In G" is often thought to be by Johann Sebastian Bach because it was included in a book of sheet music kept by Bach's wife Anna Magdalena. The song was written by Denny Randell and Sandy Linzer, who wrote all the original songs on the album and went to write some of the biggest hits for The Four Seasons. In our interview with Denny Randell, he explained that he started listening to "Minuet In G" at an early age. "I must have been about 5, 6" said Randell. "I was taking lessons at a very early age, and I loved that piece. It stuck with me. Over the years, I grew up and got more into music from a creative point of view. It's really interesting, throughout all my later teen years and when I first got into the business, I always had it on my mind that it would make a wonderful grounds for a pop song if done in the right way. At some point, finally, I just decided to write the song; it was time to put it together. It's in a different groove and it's a different time signature than the original piece; it was put into a form that could work for a Pop record at that time."
The title does not appear in the lyrics. Denny Randell told us how he came up with it: "In those days, I used to see a lot young girls, and they would like to write poetry of sorts. So I wanted this to be basically a romantic poem, and I came up with the title, which also reflected the classical background of 'A Lover's Concerto.' I just felt that it could work, I just had this feeling about it, even though it is not generally the way you write songs and hooks. The title was the combination of the feeling of both the lyric and the music. And it worked."
The Toys were Barbara Harris, Barbara Parritt and June Montiero. They met in high school and were signed by Lizer and Randell. This was their first single and biggest hit - the group broke up in 1968.
Ralph Casale, who played guitar on this track, tells us that the song's producer
Charlie Calello had the arrangement laid out, and the two guitarists played "chicks." What's a chick? Ralph says: "Musicians used that word because when you pronounce the word 'chick,' with a heavy accent, it describes the sound produced when a guitarist strikes the first three strings of an electric guitar with a plectrum (pick) and the left hand stops the strings from resonating. You can also produce both the 'chicking' sound and a resonating sound at the same time. The rhythm pattern can be quarter notes, eighth notes or any pattern desired. The pattern used often was quarter notes on the second and forth beat of the measure. On 'Lovers Concerto' one guitarist played quarter notes on the second and fourth beat with one sound and the other played on all four beats with another sound."
 
Ralph adds, "On this record Charlie wanted one guitar playing on two and four and the other playing on all four beats. The strings are struck in such a way that a chord sound and a chicking sound is produced. You can hear that effect on 'Lover's Concerto.' Charlie did a great job on that record. For me it was pretty much what we call 'straight ahead.' It was clever of the writers Denny Randell and Sandy Linzer combining their lyrics with a well known classical piece."

Great song by The Toys. The Supremes also did a very nice cover.

This made an appearance in the movie "Mr. Holland's Opus". When Mr. Holland is trying to teach his kids about music, he plays this and everyone is all "The Toys" and he's all like "No, it's Bach"
- Dusty, St. Louis, MO
I took violin lessons from the ages of 6 to 17, and the original piece by Bach was one of the first songs I had to learn to play (I was 7 at the time); I heard this song for the first time on the radio sometime right before or during second grade (I can't remember if I was 7 or 8 at that time). From the first minute I heard this song at age 7/8, I knew the melody was familiar to me in someway or another. As I continued to listen to it, it immediately dawned on me that it was the same melody as Bach's Minuet! I don't remember if I had recommended this song to my violin teacher, but I think that would've been an excellent idea to do so!
- Jerro, New Alexandria, PA
I had this song stuck in my head for a week and I was ready to strangle somebody!
- Dave, Pittsbrugh, PA
no one should have covered this song the vocalist sings it so sweetly
- michael, burnley, United Kingdom
I'll have to investigate further, but I think the backing musicians on this were none other than The Funk Brothers, who were the backing musicians for all the Motown acts (Supremes, Four Tops, Temps, Marvin Gaye, etc.). This was during the period where they often 'snuck' around to other recording studios to make extra money, but their unique 'sound' was undeniable.

It's wasn't "Mrs. Mills", it was Mrs. Miller. She was a 59-year-old grandmother with a perfectly awful singing voice--off pitch and off tempo--who made the record charts back in '66 with her version of Petula Clark's "Downtown." Her debut album sold 250,000 copies in 3 weeks. You can read about her at www.mrsmillersworld.com.
- James, San Diego, CA
The Fleetwoods of "Mr. Blue" fame also did a version of this song.

I remember this song because it alwyas was always playing in my doctor's office. It made my doctor visit less intimidating.
- Reginald Lewis, Vallej, Aruba
The last eight measures are the most euphoric, uplifting sounds I know. Someone cued the angels.
- Robert, Randolph, NJ
Angela, The song on the reverse side was "This Night"
- Robert, San Diego, CA
I'm a bit of a trivia nut. This website is incredible! I too, heard speculation that this song wasn't Bachs, as stated by the editor's comments above, and I remember that on Mr Hollands Opus it was said to be Bach's. The only other reference I've read was a wikipedia entry-if I remember correctly it left it to speculation. DOES ANYONE KNOW FOR SURE?
- Rich, El Segundo, CA
For those of you who are looking for a CD that contains the song (this comment is especially addressed to you, Cameron from Sydney, Australia), you'll be delighted to know that a CD reissue of the original LP The Toys Sing 'A Lover's Concerto' and 'Attack!' is available through different retailers, including Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and CDConnection. This is a must for anyone who wants the song without dealing with songs by different artists and who want to find out more about the Toys' career. Buy the album right away!

Til The End Of TimebyPerry Como
Album: The Very Best Of Perry ComoReleased: 1945Charted:1
AlejandrobyLady Gaga
Album: The Fame MonsterReleased: 2009Charted:57
This is a track from Lady Gaga's EP, The Fame Monster. In this song Gaga fends off three Mexican lovers. Latin lovers often crop on records - other tracks featuring them include Madonna's "La Isla Bonita" and ABBA's "Fernando."
The video courts religious controversy in a Madonna-ish way by showing Gaga dressed in a red latex nun outfit eating a rosary. It also intermingles other Catholic imagery with provocative shots of a same-sex orgy. Not only Catholic groups objected - Katy Perry tweeted: "Using blasphemy as entertainment is as cheap as a comedian telling a fart joke."
Klein defended the use of religious imagery and symbolism in an email to MTV News: "The religious symbolism is not meant to denote anything negative, but represents the character's battle between the dark forces of this world and the spiritual salvation of the Soul," he wrote. "Thus at the end of the film, she chooses to be a nun, and the reason her mouth and eyes disappear is because she is withdrawing her senses from the world of evil and going inward towards prayer and contemplation."
He added that the scene in which Gaga eats the rosary beads is meant to represent "the desire to take in the holy."
Every track on The Fame Monster represents a "fear" of some "monster." GaGa has said this song was influenced by her "fear of sex" monster.
The song's music video was directed by the photographer Steven Klein. Gaga discussed with The London Times May 22, 2010 it's concept. She explained it is about the "purity of my friendships with my gay friends, and how I've been unable to find that with a straight man in my life. It's a celebration and an admiration of gay love - it confesses my envy of the courage and bravery they require to be together. In the video I'm pining for the love of my gay friends - but they just don't want me."
The song opens with a weeping violin, which incorporates the melody from "Csárdás" by Italian composer Vittorio Monti (1868-1922). "Csárdás" was composed in 1904 and Monti based the violin show-piece on a Hungarian folk dance.
Gaga has cited in interviews Abba's 1976 song "Fernando" as an influence on this tune.
Director Steven Klein said of his collaboration with Gaga on the music video to Rolling Stone: "She likes epics. It fits her personality. We combined dance, narrative and attributes of surrealism. The process was to express Lady Gaga's desire to reveal her heart and bear her soul."
Klein had never directed a proper music video before. However, after seeing Gaga perform live, he felt inspired. "I went to see her show in NYC, and it felt like performance art in the '90s. And I had not seen anything like that in a while," Klein told MTV News. "Lady Gaga approached me about doing this particular song, and in the past, I have passed on such offers, but this time I felt [a] narrative drive you could make interesting, and we both aligned on the vision for the film."
He added: "I had a vision and story for the film, she reacted to it, then we both collaborated ... We shot in Los Angeles on April 30, 2010. My schedule and hers are both complicated, so it took a lot to get the days that we both could work together."
Klein went on to explain the clip: "I was not thinking in terms [of influences.] I saw it more as a combination of cinema and theater," he said. "[It is] about a woman's desire to resurrect a dead love and who can not face the brutality of her present situation. The pain of living without your true love."
All By MyselfbyEric CarmenAlbum: Eric CarmenReleased: 1975Charted:212
Carmen: "The song started with the solo. It started 4 bars at a time. Eventually, over a period of 2 months, that entire interlude had been written. Then my quest was to put this in the middle of an actual song. Then it was a matter of trying to figure out what kind of song and how could I do it. I was listening to Rachmaninoff's 2nd piano concerto (written in 1901) and I heard the melody which I used for the verse. Then I needed a chorus. I went back and listened to a song that I had written in 1973 called 'Let's Pretend' for the Raspberries. I just took those notes and took it from there. I thought, ''Let's Pretend' was a nice melody.' The song didn't go quite as far as I thought it should have. I'll go back and steal from myself for this."
Carmen used the same notes from "Let's Pretend" to open his song "The Way We Used To Be."
Carmen: "There's not nearly as much fuel in being happy as there is in being miserable. Being miserable is a great catalyst for songwriting, for me anyway. I'm constantly amazed at the amount of wonderful work that Mozart did during periods when he was fairly happy. His music during those periods reflects the happiness. On the other hand, I can't imagine that Rachmaninoff was happy when he was writing the 2nd symphony and 2nd piano concerto. I don't think the anguish and angst of those melodies comes out of being peachy keen."
When he wrote this, Carmen thought the Rachmaninoff music was in the public domain, meaning he could use it free of charge. After this song came out, he found out it wasn't and agreed to a settlement with the Rachmaninoff estate.
Carmen: "If you walked in a record store and saw "All By Myself" on the record label, you'd know what the song was about, and it's an emotion that everyone has felt at some point in their life. Therefore, it's a song that goes immediately to your heart. The lyrics are as simple as I could possibly make them. Sometimes my melodies are so dramatic that if the lyric is that dramatic, it's overkill."
Carmen: "The edited version was still about 4:22 so I know the song probably had to be edited. The only problem was that there really was no place to edit because it changed keys 4 different times within that piano interlude. Jimmy Ienner, the producer, and I had struggled trying to figure out how we could possibly do an edit. (thanks to Bernie and the folks at EricCarmen.com for all above)
Celine Dion covered this in 1996. Her version hit #4 in the US and #6 in the UK.
This has been used in the movies Clueless, Dawn of the Dead (2004 version), and Shrek 2. It was also used in Bridget Jones's Diary when Bridget (Rene Zellwager)is alone and drunk on New Year's. The song was performed by Charice in the April 19, 2011 episode of Glee. The actress and singer has an occasional part as talented rival glee club member, Sunshine Corazon. The comment was made that it was a tad inappropriate to hear the teenager singing the song's opening lines, "When I was young/ I never needed anyone / And making love was just for fun / Those days are gone"?

I loved Lets Pretend from the moment my sister got the 45 inch single in 1973. I used it in my Wedding song list. In 75 All by myself was all over the radio. For some reason I did not put the two together until this post at the top. Eric has a great voice. His lyrics are good but not great. Dylan was great. He tends to rip off everyone from the Beatles to the Who to the above mentioned Rachmaninoff' on the melodies. But as Steve Jones from the Sex Pistols would say on Indie 103.1 in LA, "Eric Carmen is a nicker (thief), but a good one at that". Later the electronic duo Thievery Corp. made no bones about their larceny. I am not sure if this is legend or fact but I heard Rachmaninoff ripped off the melody used in All by Myself from a Venice street vendor. When I saw the Rasberries in a reunion show in Nov 2007 in Anaheim, CA, Eric went on an extended piano jam in the middle of the song I presume playing Rachmininoff note for note. He also said he would have released the song with the Rasberries had they not broke up.- Mark Hardt, St. Petersburg, FL
This was a great song from the mid 70's and I remember when I took a classical music class in '79 that I heard the same music in Carmen's song. I thought of it as compliment Carmen was giving to the composer. I don't think it would have gotten near the attention otherwise. Yes it sounds a little depressing but if you follow it up with R.E.M.'s "Everybody Hurts" its like the otherside of the same record.

Tod, with all due respect, Rachmaninov was one of the greatest pianists and composers of the 20th Century. (And the late 19th as well.) Comparing Carmen and Rachmaninov might be one of the absolutely dumbest things I have ever heard in my life, and I'm an old fart. Get a grip on reality.. you probably believe Global Warming is a "hoax."
- John, Margaretville, NY
With all due respect to Rachmaninoff, Eric Carmen is three times the creative talent as his classical counterpart. His estate beneficiaries should thank their lucky stars that someone as brilliant as Carmen brought Rachmaninoff's work alive. Sure, Carmen sampled the melody for the verse, but it was Carmen lyrics and voice that made that verse immortal and commercially valuable.

Okay...I've just signed up so I could make a comment here, like two other people have already noted and therefore spoilt my thunder, I have just watched "Brief Encounter" on our FOX Classics Channel, introduced by Bill Collins I was immediately sucked in to watching all 86 minutes of it, by about halfway through the film I picked up on the music score and sounded very much like a song I hear played on our local easy music station 3MP all the time, which has finally led me to SongFacts, I'm not sure what "John" of the UK was getting to exactly but it is clear that Noel Coward had used Rachmaninoff 2nd Piano Concerto as the main theme throughout the film, nothing unusual here, definitely a beautiful piece though, oh and one small observation, Bill had indicated that this was his favorite film, I guess there might be some truth in that judging by the teary look in his eyes once the film had finished tonight, you gotta love'm...18/4/09

All You Need Is LovebyThe Beatles
Album: Yellow SubmarineReleased: 1967Charted:11
The Beatles played this for the first time on the "Our World" project, the first worldwide TV special. Broadcast in 24 countries on June 25, 1967, the show was 6 hours long and featured music from 6 continents, with The Beatles representing Britain. The Beatles were supposedly recording this live during the show, but they used a prerecorded backing track and John Lennon's vocal was redone a few hours later. Eric Clapton mimed guitar on this during the special.
The concept of the song was born out of a request to bring a song that was going to be understood by people of all nations. The writing began in late May of 1967, with John and Paul working on separate songs. It was decided that John's "All You Need Is Love" was the better choice because of its easy to understand message of love and peace. The song was easy to play, the words easy to remember and it encompassed the feeling of the world's youth during that period.
"All You Need Is Love" was a popular saying in the '60s anti-war movement. The song was released in the middle of the Summer of Love (1967). It was a big part of the vibe.
John Lennon wrote this as a continuation of the idea he was trying to express in his 1965 song "The Word." John was fascinated by how slogans effect the masses and was trying to capture the same essence as songs like "We Shall Overcome." He once stated, "I like slogans. I like advertising. I love the telly." In a 1971 interview about his song "Power To The People," he was asked if that song was propaganda. He said, "Sure. So was 'All You Need Is Love.' I'm a revolutionary artist. My art is dedicated to change."
Musically, this song is very unusual. The chorus is only one note, and the song is in a rare 7/4 tempo. (thanks to Dwight Rounds, author of The Year The Music Died, 1964-1972)
It was not until 1983 and the publication of the in the book John Lennon: In My Life by Pete Shotton and Nicholas Schaffner that it was revealed that John Lennon was the primary composer of the song. It is typical of Lennon: Three long notes ("love -love -love") and the rise of excitement with at first speaking, then recital, then singing, then the climax and finally the redemption. This as opposed to McCartney's conventional verse, verse, middle part, verse or A,A,B,A. Lennon felt that a good song must have a rise of excitement, climax and redeeming. (thanks to Johan Cavalli, who is a music historian in Stockholm)
Ringo's second son, Jason, was born the day this hit #1 in the US. Jason is also a drummer.
n the orchestral ending, you can hear pieces of both "Greensleeves," a Bach two-part invention (by George Martin) and Glen Miller's "In The Mood." Royalties were paid to Miller for his contribution.
McCartney sang the chorus to The Beatles 1963 hit, "She Loves You" at the end: "She loves you yeah yeah yeah... She loves you yeah yeah yeah"
John Lennon's hand-written lyrics for this song sold for 1 Million pounds in the summer of 2005. Lennon left them in the BBC studios after The Beatles' last live TV appearance, and they were salvaged by an employee. (thanks, Ryan - Kansas City, MO)
This begins with a clip from the French national anthem, "La Marseillaise," written and composed by Claude Joseph Rouget de Lisle in Strasbourg on April 25, 1792. Its original name was "Chant de guerre de l'Armee du Rhin" ("Marching Song of the Rhine Army") and it was dedicated to Marshal Nicolas Luckner, a Bavarian-born French officer from Cham. It became the rallying call of the French Revolution and got its name because it was first sung on the streets by troops from Marseille upon their arrival in Paris. Now the national anthem of France, the song was also once the anthem of the international revolutionary movement, contrasting with the theme of The Beatles song. In the late 1970s, Serge Gainsbourg recorded a Reggae version "Aux Armes et cetera," with Robbie Shakespeare, Sly Dunbar and Rita Marley in the choir in Jamaica, which resulted in him getting death threats from veterans of the Algerian War of Independence. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)
Al and Tipper Gore had this song played at their wedding. They married in 1970 and separated in 2010.
George Harrison mentioned this in his 1981 song "All Those Years Ago" with the line, "But you point the way to the truth when you say 'All you need is love.'" Harrison's song is a tribute to John Lennon, who was killed in 1980.
This was used in the climactic final episode of the UK sci-fi series The Prisoner, and was the entrance music for Queen Elizabeth II during the UK Millennial celebrations of 1999. It was also sung by choirs across the kingdom in 2002 during the Queen's Golden Jubilee celebration. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)
In 2007, this was used in an advertising campaign for Luv's diapers with the lyrics changed to "All You Need Is Luv's." While Beatles songs have been used in commercials before, notably "Revolution" in spots for Nike and "Hello Goodbye" for Target, this peace anthem shilling for diapers didn't go over well with fans who thought it sullied The Beatles legacy. The publishing rights to "All You Need Is Love" and most other Beatles songs are controlled by the Sony corporation and Michael Jackson, which means The Beatles cannot prevent a company from re-recording the song and using it in a commercial.
When asked what his favorite lyric is during an interview with NME, John Lennon's son Sean replied: "My list of favorite things changes from day to day. I like when my dad said: 'There's nothing you can know that isn't known/ Nothing you can see that isn't shown/ Nowhere you can go that isn't where you're meant to be.' It seems to be a good representation of the sort of enlightenment that came out of the '60s."

Here is some additional detail on Keith Moon's presence in the studio and on the video:
Mike: actually, the song alternates between 7/4 and 8/4 time almost throughout. If you count 1-2-3-4-1-2-3 1-2-3-4-1-2-3 over the first two lines of each verse "There's nothing you can do that can't be done" and "There's nothing you can sing that can't be sung," it fits. The third line of each verse "Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game" has you counting 1-2-3-4 1-2-3-4. The chorus stays safely in 8/4 time. Seven time is usually VERY difficult to pull off, and is extremely rare in a song about love. More evidence of the Beatles' incredible talent and accomplishment.
The three long wunderful sacral notes "Love love love" have some simlarities with "Vissi d´arte" in Tosca by Puccini, and both pieces are followed by short notes. That indicates that long notes call for attention, and the short notes are describing something. But I am sure, Lennon never listened on Tosca.
When Lennon the first time presented the song, George Martin -- who mostly prefered McCartney´s more conventional songs -- leaned to McCartney and muttered: "Well, it´s certainly repetitive" ( "The Beatles"
by Bob Spitz, 2005, page 700). Martin didn´t understand that the refrain must be seemingly
monotonous even to the end of the refrain, in order to make the final little step up, more clear and emotional.

In the STUDIO version, it is clearly PAUL singing "She loves you, yeah, yeah, yeah" at the end. In the video done for the BBC's "Our World" live telecast , John appears to also sing the famous line.
- Tommy G, Scottsdale, AZ
Glen Miller's estate had to sue the Beatles over the use of "In the Mood", for backdated royalties. The song had not been cleared and properly credited. The Beatles blamed producer George Martin for the error.
- P, Lakewood, OH
ACTUALLY, its both Paul AND John singing the "she loves you" at the end. My proof is if you look closely at the performance on Youtube, you can see both Paul and johns mouth singing.(and no its not them chewing the gum) its both of them singing it but you can hear johns voice more than Paul's.
People have called me a hippie for listening to this song, and I look NOTHING like one. This song is 100% hippie, so why was it used in the Moulin Rouge movie which happened between 1899 and 1900. Fourty years before John Lennon was born, or evev Rock, not even Rock's mother was born.(aka Jazz)

Mick Jagger was one that sang the chorus.
 
BecausebyThe Beatles
Album: Abbey RoadReleased: 1969
John Lennon got the idea for this when he heard Yoko to playing Beethoven's "Moonlight Sonata" on the piano. He asked her to play it backwards, and came up with this based on what he heard. John said, "I was lying on the sofa in our house, listening to Yoko play Beethoven's 'Moonlight Sonata' on the piano. Suddenly, I said 'Can you play those chords backward?' She did, and I wrote 'Because' around them. The song sounds like 'Moonlight Sonata,' too. The lyrics are clear, no bulls--t, no imagery, no obscure references."
The vocals are a 3 part harmony by Lennon, Paul McCartney, and George Harrison that was overdubbed twice, creating a 9 part harmony. This is the only Beatles song with 3 singers throughout. (thanks to Dwight Rounds, author of The Year The Music Died, 1964-1972)
Lennon said the arrangement was terrible, but McCartney and Harrison felt this was the best track on Abbey Road.
This was the first use of a Moog synthesizer on any recording. Harrison had the instrument specially made, and did his best to figure it out.
The 2006 Love album, which is a soundtrack to the Beatles Cirque du Soleil show of the same name, features an a capella version of this song. The album contains 26 tracks which are made up of 130 separate recordings - some are just a chord or two, and some tracks are superimposed on other tracks. (thanks, Bertrand - Paris, France)

in October 2012 a book with Lennon's letters - "John Lennon Letters" - was released. And there Lennon "smacks the producer George Martin for giving McCartney too much credit for some of the songwriting".
Two years after the split, 1971, McCartney said about the music, that "it was all mine" (!!) despite the fact that in the total Beatles production, Lennon - according to Ian MacDonald - composed some songs more than McCartney! All those points is an interesting thing for media scholars.
- Johan, Stockholm, Sweden
The last time the four Beatles were together in the studio, was when they made "Because", August 1969. Some weaks after that, Lennon left the Beatles. He could no longer bear that McCartney got the credit of all what he composed. See the long interview with Lennon from 8th of December 1970. And the end of the Chapter "Paul Grinds Pepper" about the impression McCartney wanted to give, and the Chapter "The Beatles Go Broke" about most people thought
it was all Paul, in Albert Goldman´s book about Lennon.
See even Article by Ned Rorem in "New York Review of Books" January 1968,
"Readers Digest" about the Beatles 1968, and "The Penguin Stereo Record Guide"
first edition. In all these, McCartney is appointed the only composer in the Beatles
- Johan, Stockholm, Sweden
Lennons composition "Because" is really a masterpiece. This harmony singing song has some similarities with the madrigal "Il bianco e dolce cigno" by Jacob Arcadelt from the mid-1530 s. But I am sure, Lennon has never listened to it. Johan, Stockholm, Sweden
Excuse me but the monkees are spelled with two e's. Not a y!- Olivia, Philadelphia, PA
that's funny, i always read that george harrison's "wonderwall music" album was the first pop record to have a moog on it. which, peter tork of the monkeys plays banjo on. i assume this is where the monkey's got the idea to use a moog on their "Pisces Aquarius Capricorn Jones Ltd." album.- ron, santa barbara, CA
This song helps to prove why side 2 of Abbey Road is the best rock music ever made!
the harmonies on this song is the best i have heard ever
Yes - I see the immediate connection between the Bach piece you mentioned and 'Because.' Even more of a connection than "Moonlight Sonata backwards" that gets thrown about sometimes. The timing of the Bach piece is more similar too - notes in groups of 4 rather than in groups of 3 like Moonlight. Great connection Rueben of Amsterdam. The thread of Love that the Beatles so "effortlessly" wove from Day 1 until Day done is an undeniably wonderfulbody of work - and I'm so glad that George, Paul and Ringo saw fit to make sure the Anthology and remasterings etc. have responsibly gone on. Any money this stuff has generated for the remaining Beatles is Love money. No where near Wallstreet, War, or any other form of blood money. The more Beatle noises out there - the better psychological condition the human race will find itself in, in 300-400 years. Right alongside, Bach, Haydn, Mozart, Schubert, Brahms, Beethoven ... this is miracle medicine at its best.
I also love the song. It sounds a lot like Bach's guitar piece 'Prelude in C major'. Check it out.
I learned the entire guitar chord arpeggios throughout (George's guitar part in C#m) - and one notices Georges incredible pinky finger reaching ability - something he also used for the F# major clustered 2nd chord in "With a Little Help from my Friends" up the neck. Because reminds me of deep Summer... 3 Beatles singing 3 times each is bound to spell-bind. Listen to George's chordal hints in "It Won't be Long" bridge ... just a great sense of harmony without giving away too much, ever - just hints and allegations of the infinite... never in your face.- Jack, Ames, IA

This is my favorite song from Abbey Road and I think it is the best example of harmonies The Beatles ever offered to the world!- Christy, Morristown, TN
If you listen to 'I'm Mandy Fly Me' by 10CC (the bit when they say 'the world is spinning like a ball, & then it wasn't there at all'), you can hear the influence of 'Because'. - Howard, Wakefield, United Kingdom
Also, some people tend to get part of the lyrics wrong. It says 'Love is old, love is new' and then 'Love is all, love is you'. For some reason, a lot of people get that part mixed up. If you pay enough attention in the song, it's evident. c:
And, has anyone actually researched it and found out if it actually is the chord progression backwards? In order to clear up the 'pun' thing...
Because the world is round, it turns me on:
All right, the world spins around on the axis, right? It turns.
Because the sky is blue, it makes me cry:
The sky is blue. Blue can also mean sad. What do people do when they're sad? They cry (not everyone, but it's just a point).
Because the wind is high, it blows my mind:
People often say the wind is blowing hard outside. That's where they get the word 'blow' from.
I'm not sure exactly what is meant in the lyrics, but those are the so-called 'puns' in them.- Roxu, Washington D.C., DC
From what I have read, this song is not Moonlight Sonata 'backwards' but the chord progression in reverse.
British Singer-Songwriter, Lynsey de Paul, did a great cover of this song on the soundtrack to the film "All This and World War II". She was Ringo's girlfriend around the time and also a good friend of George Harrison.
Check out the version from Pedro Aznar, an argentinian musician.
I thought it was McCartney who asked Yoko to play the Sonata backwards...

Send "Hello Muddah, Hello Faddah" Ringtone to your Cell
The music is based on the 1876 Ponchielli opera "Dance Of The Hours."Sherman wrote the lyrics, which are a comical letter from a boy at camp.
Sherman was a writer on The Steve Allen Show and created the game show I've Got a Secret. He went on to record comedy albums. (thanks, Edward Pearce - Ashford, Kent, England)
This was used in commercials for Downy fabric softener. The letter from camp explained how he missed home because the pillow cases weren't washed in Downy.
This played at the end of the 1993 movie Indian Summer while Stick Coder (Sam Raimi) sat looking at the camera and the credits ran. The movie is about adults returning to a camp "Tamakwa" they attended as kids. The movie stars Matt Craven, who also played a camp counselor in training (CIT) in the 1979 movie Meatballs, which is also about camp. (thanks, Mike - Mountlake Terrace, Washington)

): When I first heard the group Lynyrd Skynyrd I thought it was Leonard Skinner and that maybe they got their name from the line in this song "You remember Leonard Skinner". I later learned that it was the name of a high school teacher they knew. Randy, Houghton Lake, MI This music was also used in 1962 on a Maureen Evans song,"Like I Do". Nice song. I don't think Ms Evans ever scored again. Only thing is I think of Allen Sherman everytime I hear it!
Allan Sherman was the voice of the Cat in the Hat (Cartoon based on Dr. Seus books).
Although I never went to camp as a kid (that was way back in the early 1950s), I have been told about how bad it was. It's probably much nicer now because they probably don't have ex-drill sergeants running the place with warmed-up moist dog food as "chow" in the "mess hall".

This was also parodied in a commercial for Advantage flea control products in which a young puppy sings thanking mom for sending some Advantage in her last care package to puppy camp.
Hello Mudduh, Hello Fadduh is a true comedy classic. It's the song that put Allan Sherman on the map after his successful album My Son the Folksinger.you cant forget that Sam Raimi directed Evil Dead, Evil Dead 2 and Army
Colour My WorldbyChicago
Album: Chicago IIReleased: 1970Charted:7
This was written by Chicago's trombone player, Jimmy Pankow, and sung by Terry Kath. After Kath's death in 1978, the band did not play this song for several years. It became a concert favorite once again, with Bill Champlin singing it when they started playing it again. Robert Lamm sings it now. (thanks, Dave - Pomeroy, OH)
On The Chris Isaak Hour, Pankow explained: "It's a small segment of a multi-movement piece on our second album which is basically a tribute to my first love. I had been listening to Bach - the Brandenburg Concertos, and they had all those arpeggiated melodies. I sat at a piano and started messing around with these arpeggios. That cycle of arpeggios became the foundation of the song.
Frank Sinatra called our publicist and said, 'Ask that kid to write another verse for that song.' I thought about it, I called him back and said I can't do it - it's like sewing another arm on your kid, I can't do it."
Walter Parazaider, who was primarily a sax player in the band, played the flute on this track.

I have to make an observation about the late Terry Kath's singing, and I'm honestly not trying to stereotype here.
I had heard their music for years, long before I ever saw any footage of them performing, and I really believed that the guy with the magnificent gruff bass voice singing on the likes of "Make Me Smile" and "Colour My World" was a black guy.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered that Terry Kath was a white guy.
I've heard it elsewhere that Terry was affectionally called the "White Ray Charles," which nicely supports this personal story.
The man sure had it going on...excellent guitarist, and he could sing his a$$ off.
So sad that we lost him so young, and Chicago -- while still good -- never was the same after his loss.
- oldpink, Farmland, IN
My heart just melted when it was played on Parenthood. Terry Kath has such an incredible voice. He WAS NOT playing russian roulette. His face wasn't injured, his body of work is incredible, and after all this time he is still deeply missed. His daughter Michelle, is doing a movie about him. I look forward to it. He took his sandals off during a recording session so he wouldn't make any noise because he walked around so much while he played.
The difference of time, time passages as how we visualize are escape. as dreams happen, hope is realized thru speech, art, gratitude and emotions- Kimberly, Landing, NJ
Beautiful song sung by the late terry kath. Chicago was never the same after his accidental death in 1978. RIP terry. 9/14/10 - James, yucaipa, CA
John, just did listen to them together, and they have similar style, BUT, they both are "Cycles of Arpeggios", which Jimmy Pankow freely admits to borrowing from Bach and the Brandenburg Concertos. I believe Bach preceded both Pankow and McCall.

I am not doubting that they may have wrote the lyrics but if you listen to the music the song was actually taken from Toussaint McCall's song Nothing Takes The Place Of You. Listen to the piano and drums in the background and then play it side by side with chicago. Only thing is the tempo is different.- John, Houston, TX
I see one of the earlier posters here, Tammy, used this in her own wedding. Well, I'm a guy, and I always loved this song, and I intend to see if I can get it in my own wedding somewhere, too.- oldpink, New Castle, IN
When choosing a singer for "Colour my World" none of the guys wanted to sing it so they drew straws and Terry got the short one, the rest is lovely history. No other voice, face or total talent could've done this song justice. Chicago needs to release videos of all Kath years concerts and jam sessions. The new Chicago is a shell without Terry Kath

My bridesmaids walked in to Colour My World when I got married for the first time in 1976,wearing pastel dresses in different colors, it was the most beautiful part of the wedding, I've always loved the song even though the marriage didn't work.-Tammy, Dallas, Or.

Walt Parazaider and his flute on this is some of the best for rock and roll pop. Walt has been married to his wife since the beginning and still is....Good for you Parazaider!
Peter Cetera may have had the best vocals in the band, but im my opinion, Jimmy Pankow was the best songwriter!- Spence, Brooklyn, NY
you don't play Russian Roulette with a 9mm semi-auto. He was apparently goofing around with a .38 pulling the trigger like he was playing RR. Then picked up a 9mm ... Showed his friends the empty clip but didn't check the chamber for a live round.
One of the band members walked in and said quit playing with that gun and he said it's not loaded see!!! and put it to his head and it went off. There was a bullet still left in the chamber. It was an accident
Did you ever notice that the drummer missed a beat at 1:09? There is no snare-drum beat during the vocal part, "just what you mean to me". I wonder what happened.
Yes, it's very short, simple, and sentimental.
And, yet, it is also beautiful.
Kath's mellow baritone vocals are wonderful, and a nice contrast to the overblown falsetto that was almost a requirement for a rock singer at that time.
Then, that nice flute piece, just MAKES the song.
I also know a woman who can play that on her own flute, and she says it is not an easy piece, since it is on the lower end of the scale, requiring considerably more breath to pull off onn an instrument that already requires quite a lot of lung power.
Wonderful work.
A Groovy Kind Of LovebyThe Mindbenders Album: A Groovy Kind Of LoveReleased: 1966Charted:22
The music is based on the Rondo from "Sonatina in G Major" by Muzio Clementi.
This was written by New York songwriters Carole Bayer Sager and Toni Wine. Sager was 22 when they wrote it, and Wine was 17. They wrote the song for Screen Gems publishing, and Jack McGraw, who worked at Screen Gems' London office, thought the song would be perfect for the British group The Mindbenders. The song became a huge hit in England, and was released in America a year later, where it was also very successful.
Sager was still teaching high school when she wrote this, and Wine was still in high school. Both went on to very successful careers in the music industry, with Sager writing popular songs for stage productions and movies (including "Arthur's Theme (Best That You Can Do)"), while Wine wrote the hit "Candida" and sang on many famous songs, including Willie Nelson's version of "Always On My Mind" and "Sugar, Sugar" by The Archies. They wrote this in Sager's apartment.
In our interview with Toni Wine, she explained: "We were talking about 'Groovy' being the new word. The only song we knew of was 59th Street Bridge Song, Paul Simon and Art Garfunkel. You know, 'Feelin' groovy.' And we knew we wanted to write a song with that word in it. Because we knew it was the happening word, and we wanted to jump on that. Carole came up with 'Groovy kinda... groovy kinda... groovy...' and we're all just saying, 'Kinda groovy, kinda groovy, kinda...' I don't exactly know who came up with 'Love,' but it was 'Groovy kind of love.' And we did it. We wrote it in 20 minutes. It was amazing. Just flew out of our mouths, and at the piano, it was a real quick and easy song to write. Those are incredible things when those songs can get written. Like some you can just be hung on for so long, and then others just happen very quickly. And that was one of them. And it's been so good to us."
In 1966, this was also recorded by Patti LaBelle And The Bluebelles, but the version recorded by The Mindbenders, who released it as their first single without lead singer Wayne Fontana, became the hit.
Wayne Fontana left the Mindbenders after numerous singles failed to chart after their hit "Game of Love." To quote an angry Eric Stewart after Wayne just walked off the stage while they were playing: "All we lost was our tambourine player. Wayne had been threatening to leave the band for some time and drummer Ric Rothwell had reached the end of patience with his groaning an moaning. Ric was urging him to take his ego trip and p--s off." (thanks to Shiloh Noone, author of Seekers Guide To The Rhythm Of Yesteryear)
This was a #1 UK and US hit for Phil Collins in 1988. His version was used in the movie Buster, where Collins plays the title role of Buster Edwards. Collins put together the soundtrack using various '60s songs. A child actor, Collins was wary about taking a movie role after becoming famous as a musician, and he made sure the song didn't appear until the end of the film so musical perceptions wouldn't taint his performance.

RTIST: 10 CC TITLE: The Things We Do for Love
Lyrics and Chords
Too many broken hearts have fallen in the river
Too many lonely souls have drifted out to sea
You lay your bets and then you pay the price
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
/ Bm - G - / D - E - / G - F#sus4 / GA D G D /
Communication is the problem to the answer
You've got her number and your hand is on the phone
The weather's turned and all the lines are down
The things we do for love, the things we do for love
 
Like walking in the rain and the snow when there's nowhere to go
When you're feeling like a part of you is dying
And you're looking for the answer in her eyes
You think you're gonna break up
Then she says she wants to make up
/ D - - - / Em - A - / Bm - G E / A F#m Bm Gm /
 
Ooh you made me love you
Ooh you've got a way
Ooh you had me crawling on the floor
/ Ebsus4 Eb / / Ebsus4 Eb Db9 - /
A compromise would surely help the situation
Agree to disagree but disagree to part
When after all it's just a compromise
Of the things we do for love, the things we do for love
The things we do for love
Sitting on the Dock of the Bay Otis Redding

I'll be       sitting when the evening        comes
                G             B
                Watching the ships                 roll in

And I        watch 'em roll away a            gain

                Sitting on the dock of the       bay
Watching the          tide roll a                way

I'm just    sitting on the dock of the       bay
                G             E7
Wasting time         
                G             B  -          C              A
I               left my home in      Georgia  Headed    for the 'Frisco         bay
                G             E  -           C              A
'Cause I   had nothin to          live for
And look like           nothing's gonna come my      way
 
So I'm just... Refrain

    D               Dmaj7
And now, the end is near,
         D7            B7
And so I face the final curtain,
    Em7                Em7/D
My friend. I'll say it clear,
             Em7/Db   A7       D
I'll stay my case of which I'm certain.
     D                   D7
I've lived a live that's full.
            G             Gm
I traveled each and every highway,
    D                    A       Asus4  D#maj7/D    D
And more, much more than this, I did it m…………….y way.
    D               Dmaj7  -         D7                B7
Regrets, I've had a,
But then again, too few to mention.
  Em7               Em7/D
I did what I had to do,
           Em7/Db   A7    D
And saw it thru without exemption.
  D                    D7  -             G              Gm
I planned each charted course,
Each careful step along the byway,
    D                    A       Asus4  D#maj7/D    D
And more, much more than this, I did it m___...y way.
 
               D                   D7
Yes there were times, I'm sure you knew,
           G                     Gsus4 G
When I bit off more than I could chew,
            Em               A7
But thru it all, when there was doubt,
         F#               Bm7
I ate it up, and spit it out.
           Em               A
I faced it all, and I stood tall,
    Asus4  D#maj7/D    D
And did it m___...y way.
 
I've loved, I've laughed and cried.
I've had my fill; my share of losing.
And now, as tears subside, I find it all so  amusing.
To think I did all that; And may I say - not in a shy way,
"No, oh no not me, I did it m___y way".
 
For what is a man, what has he got?
If not himself, then he has naught.
To say the things he truly feels;
And not the words of one who kneels.
The record shows I took the blows -
And did it m___y way!
Try To Remember- Harvey Schmidt (lyrics by Tom Jones from the 1960 musical Fantasticks, Jerry  Orbach singing version original off Broadway production of The Fantasticks 1962)

when you were a tender and callow fellow.
G        Em          Am       D7
Try to remember, and if you remember,
     G  then follow.
 
G        Em           Am          D7
Try to remember, when life was so tender,
that no one wept, except the willow.
Try to remember, when life was so tender,
that dreams were kept, beside your pillow.
Bm       Em           Am          D7
Try to remember, when life was so tender,

that love was an ember, about to billow.

Deep in December, it's nice to remember,
although you know, the snow will follow.
Deep in December, it's nice to remember,
without a hurt, the heart is hollow.
Bm        Em           Am        D7
Deep in December, it's nice to remember,
    G          Em           Am      D7
the fire of September, that made us mellow.

Deep in December, our hearts should remember,

Notes: Original key sounds like Bbm but it's easier for guitar fingering to play in Am.  Of course you can use capo on 1st fret if you want to play in Bbm.If you are not experienced with "complex" chords don't worry - they are not always  more difficult to play just because they have long names. Don't skip over them -
they are what makes the song sound so good! Below are  the chord positions I use.  The hardest finger stretch is on Bbm7/Ab (Bbm7 with Ab in the bass)Use little finger for the Ab bass.

Am                                                 Bdim

I fell right through the cracks, now I'm trying to get back

But I won't hesitate no more, no more

E
Scooch on over closer dear
(A)
And I will nibble your ear
I've been spending way too long checking my tongue in the mirror
And bending over backwards just to try to see it clearer
But my breath fogged up the glass
And so I drew a new face and I laughed
I guess what I be saying is there ain't no better reason
To rid yourself of vanities and just go with the seasons
It's what we aim to do, our name is our virtue

Blitzkrieg Bop - Jason Mraz

Song: Blitzkrieg Bop
Artist: Jason Mraz
Tabbed By: Aaron Andrzejak
I know you always seem to read this, but this is my first tab, feedback at
would be awesome.
This tab is a cover by Jason Mraz of the Romones song Blitzkrieg Bop that you can find
youtube. Its a lot slower and and all around different sound from the original, so it
helps to hear the song, but its really cool sounding and fun to play. There is some
that he does through out the song, but you can just as easily strum the chords and it
still sound great.
