Redneck Friend Lyrics

Pretty little one
How has it all begun?
They're teaching you how to walk
But you're already on the run
Little one...
What you gonna do?
Little one...
Honey, it's all up to you

Now your daddy's in the den shootin' up the evening news
Mama's with a friend, lately she's been so confused
Little one...
Come on and take my hand
I may not have the answer but I believe I got a plan

Honey you shake and I'll rattle and we'll roll on down the line
And see if we can't get in touch with a very close friend of mine
But let me clue you in, it ain't like him
To argue or pretend...
Honey let me introduce you to my Redneck Friend

Well they've got a little list of all those things of which they don't approve
They've got to keep their eyes on you or you might make your move
Little one...
I really wish you would
Little one...
I think the damage would do you good

Honey you shake and I'll rattle and we'll roll on down the line
We're going to forget all about the battle
It's gonna feel so fine
'Cause he's the missing link, the kitchen sink
Eleven on a scale of ten
Honey let me introduce you to my redneck friend

Honey you shake and I'll rattle and we'll roll on down the line
I'm going to try to swing you up into my saddle
And then we'll run but you'll think we're flyin'
Now honey don't just stand there
Lookin' like this dream will never end
Honey let me introduce you to my redneck friend

Redneck Friend Song Chart

In this song Jackson Browne sings about letting loose his fun-loving, country side in an effort to improve relations with his lady. This alter ego was based on his real "Redneck Friend" - Gregg Allman. Browne was a huge fan of The Allman Brothers Band.

Elton John played piano on this track. He didn't have a US work permit at the time so he was credited as "Rockaday Johnny." Other musicians on the song were Doug Haywood on bass, Jim Keltner on drums, David Lindley on slide guitar, and Glenn Frey on harmony vocals. The previous year, Brown gave Frey the song that became the first single for the Eagles: "Take It Easy."

A track from Jackson Browne's second album, this was his third single.

Warm Foothills Lyrics

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Ooh
Dry dunes cater for jumping boys
From the nape of her neck he made his descent
They watched men hurl from rock to sea
Like sternum to button, lined lip pinches in between

Your foothills
Your warm

Iris swims quietly beside me
Oh the leaves and larger weeds sway and stretch themselves beneath
Blue dragonflies dart to and fro
I tie my life to your balloon and let it go

Your foothills
Your warm

Ooh
Ooh
Ooh

Warm Foothills Song Chart

The song's imagery about an idyllic swimming trip are from John Bayley's memoir of his wife Iris Murdoch, Elegy for Iris. The passage recounts a happy time together before the late author's sad slide into dementia.

Iris Murdoch (1909-1999) was diagnosed with Alzheimer's disease in 1997 and died two years later in Oxford.

The sunrise ballad came from the writing sessions Alt-J did for British indie film Leave To Remain.

Bright Eyes' Conor Oberst, Lianne La Havas, Marika Hackman and Sivu were recruited to add vocals and whistling which were then spliced to fit between those sung by Joe Newman.

Promises in the Dark Lyrics

Never again, isn't that what you said?
You've been through this before
An' you swore this time you'd think with your head
No one, would ever have you again
And if taking was gonna get done
You'd decide where and when
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart securely tied and bound
They whisper, Promises in the Dark

Armed and ready, you fought love battles in the night
But too many opponents made you weary of the fight
Blinded by passion, you foolishly let someone in
All the warnings went off in your head
Still you had to give in

Just when you think you got it down
Resistance nowhere to be found
They whisper, promises in the dark

But promises, you know what they're for
It sounds so convincing, but you heard it before
Cause talk is cheap and you gotta be sure
And so you put up your guard
And you try to be hard
But your heart says try again

You desperately search for a way to conquer the fear
No line of attack has been planned to fight back the tears
Where brave and restless dreams are both won and lost
On the edge is where it seems it's well worth the cost
Just when you think you got it down
Your heart in pieces on the ground
They whisper, promises in the... Dark

Promises in the Dark Song Chart

Benatar wrote this song with her guitarist and future husband Neil Giraldo. The song deals with trials and tribulations of past relationships and how they affect the one you're in now. Haven't we all had to tend the emotional scars left behind from whoever got there first? In the case of Giraldo and Benatar, things worked out quite well: they got married in a cow pasture in Maui in 1982, and have been married ever since. They've also continued their musical partnership as well, with Giraldo producing all of Benatar's next albums.

Giraldo and Benatar were dating when they wrote this song, which was early in their musical partnership. In our interview with Neil Giraldo , he explained: "That was a song that Patricia started first. I mean, I start probably 93% of them, and she'll jump in after I get it started. But she actually started writing that on an airplane. And then she put some words together, and she said, 'Here, try to do something with this thing.'

Actually she slipped the words under the door of our music room in this little house we had. We wrote that I think in 1980. Even though we could have put it on Crimes of Passion, we ended up putting it on Precious Time instead. But she put the words under the door because she was too embarrassed to let me see the words face to face.

Then she had a little bit of an idea of a melody, so I took a little bit of what that was, and I wrote it on piano in our little music room. My favorite guitar I had in the room at the time fell and busted while I was writing, and busted the top of the neck off it. So that was like a curse. And then when we went to record it, we had everything but the last verse, and then I just wrote the words for the last verse in the studio while we were recording it. So that's how that one goes."

Precious Time cracked the #1 spot on the US albums chart for a week, and helped establish Benatar as an '80s icon. A former bank clerk and singing waitress, she was a classically trained singer who could rock the spandex and big jewelry, making her an MTV favorite as well as a mainstay on Pop radio.

Hinting at the personal nature of this song, Benatar told Songwriter Connection magazine in 1984: "Sometimes I really hate singing in the first person - it's so personal sometimes... I do mostly observational lyric but if it's directly from something that happened, I can't stand to sing it in first person. I'd rather sing it as we or they or you, or something else."

Neil Giraldo tells us that he knew early on that this song had hit potential. He explained: "I thought it was deep in a really good way. I think that it was a commercial hit, but I love the expression of the melody. It gave a lot of room for the vocal to be powerful. And then when we rehearsed the song, that's where I came up with that little guitar riff, which is the signature to that break between the slow part and the fast part. When I hit that in rehearsal and I put the song way up tempo - because the song was a ballad - I found I hit that, then I knew, I went, 'Oh, we got something now. This is going to work.' I knew it right then we had it."

Add Me In Lyrics

Your body's an isosceles
And I'm just tryna try angles
Your love is trigonometry
Just tryna solve the whole equation

What's it about you (about you) I wanna love you
Picking you up, picking you up, so I can touch you
Should we do that? Can I do that? (baby)
Answers are usually in the bed

Substitution, Add Me In
Multiply my love, is that too much?
Substitution
What's the problem, girl? Add me in (yeah)

Baby just add me, baby just add me in
Baby just add me, baby just add me in

I'll calculate her home invasion (girl, add it up)
Divide your legs and count to 3 (3, 2, 1, come on)
He's just not the answer baby
And that's just my hypothesis (real talk)

What's it about you (about you) I wanna love you
Picking you up, picking you up, so I can touch you
Should we do that? Can I do that? (baby)
Answers are usually in the bed

Substitution, add me in
Multiply my love, is that too much?
Substitution
What's the problem, girl? Add me in (yeah)

But if I said I loved you, (baby pick me) I need you
Would you care?
So many things that I could learn
Baby if we do the math, it will equal up to me!

Substitution, add me in
Multiply my love, is that too much?

What's the problem, girl? Add me in (yeah yeah, ooh)

Add Me In Song Chart

This Danja-produced track has Brown drawing on mathematics metaphors to attract the interest of a girl:

Substitution, add me in
Multiply my love
Is that too much?
Substitution
What's the problem, girl?
Add me in

The mathematics-as-a-metaphor-for-love lyrical trick is not a new one, It was famously utilised by Sam Cooke in his 1960 hit "Wonderful World."

Don't know much trigonometry.
Don't know much about algebra,
Don't know what a slide rule is for.
But I do know that one and one is two,
And if this one could be with you,
What a wonderful world this would be

The song was produced by Nate "Danja" Hills, who previously collaborated with Brown on "Till I Die" from his Fortune album. Breezy described the tune to MTV News as being "old-school with a new-age feel."

Rock And Roll Part 2 Lyrics

Rock And Roll Part 2 Song Chart

This is better known as the "Hey" song because of the chant in the chorus... "da da da da da da da, Hey!" It's probably the greatest example of "Glam Rock," which was characterized by male lead singers dressed in outrageous, usually feminine clothes. Glitter was known more for his appearance than his music.

Glitter wrote this song with his producer, Mike Leander, who came up with a key element in the song: the compressed, metronomic drum sound that would later be copied by Sweet and various other Glam acts. Along with the drums, Leander layered big guitar riffs, lots of handclaps, and the vocal "Hey"'s performed by Glitter and his friends.

Glitter had a role on a TV show in England called Ready, Steady, Go. This is where he met Mike Leander, who used some studio time when a singer named David Essex ("Rock On") didn't show up for a session. He had Glitter and a bunch of their friends improvise different sounds over a beat he had from a song called "Shag Rag, That's My Bag." They ended up with a 15-minute dance song, which they edited some more and called "Rock And Roll Parts 1 And 2."

There is a "Rock And Roll Part 1," with lyrics that repeat "Rock And Roll" instead of "Hey." It was on the same album and released as the flip side of the single. Glitter and Leander didn't know which one to release as a single, so they released it as a double A-side and let radio stations pick.

Glitter's real name is Paul Gadd, and he previously recorded as Paul Raven. He had been recording since 1958, had been dropped by three record labels, and still did not have a hit until he came up with this song. It was his first release as "Gary Glitter," a name he took in homage to the "Glitter Rock" sound he was using. Glitter, who was overweight and in his mid-30s, went over the top with his outfits to promote this song, creating maximum spectacle with makeup and accessories. For a while, it looked like this song would flop along with Glitter's career, but it slowly caught on in Europe and gradually became very well-known, helped in large part by Glitter's image gimmick.

This got a big boost when Glitter was asked to perform it on the British TV show Top Of The Pops. For the show, Glitter had to put together a band, but since the performances on the show were lip-synched, they didn't need anyone to actually play. Glitter and Leander found a bunch of people to hold instruments and pretended to play during the show. They were called The Glitter Band.

In the '80s, Glitter went through bankruptcy and was arrested for drunk driving, but his downfall came in 1997 when he took his computer in for repair and the technician found kiddie porn on the hard drive. Glitter was arrested and sent to prison, where he served 2 months starting in November, 1999. After his release, he lived in Cuba and Cambodia. He is a very controversial figure in England, and could face great harm if he ever returned.

This is commonly used as a rallying cry at sporting events, including many hockey game venues as goal songs. When Glitter was arrested on child pornography charges in 1997, many stadiums stopped playing this.

This is the only song Glitter is known for in America, but he was very popular in England, where he had 10 more similar sounding Top 10 hits from 1972-1974, including "Hello Hello I'm Back Again," and "Do You Wanna Touch Me? (Oh Yeah)." His career started to slide in 1975 when he took on a Disco sound.

This has been used in a lot of movies, including The Full Monty, Bedazzled, Duets, and D2: The Mighty Ducks.

In 1987, Glitter released "Rock And Roll" parts 3 through 6. They were produced by Trevor Horn, who was a member of the Buggles.

In the UK, various Gary Glitter imitators cropped up, including the rather ludicrous Larry Lurex and Alvin Stardust.

In 1988, a group called The Timelords released a song called "Doctorin' The Tardis" that sampled this. The song went to #1 in England and made Glitter a lot of money, which he needed for legal bills and an extravagant lifestyle. The Timelords later became The KLF, who had a hit with "3AM Eternal."

This song's influence can be heard on many disco and glam rock tracks, but it also made an impact in the realm of metal: Iron Maiden's first single, "Running Free," was based on this song's beat.

Don't Be Gone Too Long Lyrics

I dug a single seed into the ground
I hope it grows, grows
In a year or two if you're around
You'll see a rose, rose
Pack me up and keep me hidden somewhere
That you can find me
On a train to Paris going nowhere
Trouble bridge behind me

Don't Be Gone Too Long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone

When you're, when you're gone
When you're gone
Golden leaves are dancing on the ground
It's getting cold, cold
Safe from time, will be forever young
Never old, old
See upon a fire out in space,
Zooming up behind me
All the wonder written in your face
Was there beside me

Don't be gone too long (too long)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long)
Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone
Oh oh
When you're when you're gone
Oh oh
When you're gone

Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over?
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me (is it over?)
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me
Is it really over? (Yeah)
Bring it back to me, bring it back to me

Don't be gone too long (too long) ('Cause it will be over)
'Cause you won't be there to love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long) ('Cause it will be over)
Tell me who's gonna love me when you're gone
Don't be gone too long (too long) ('Cause it will be over)

What do you do when you don't get better
Strong arms get too, get too weak to hold her
Oh God, give me just enough strength to make it through

Sleepless, this madness is walking me out to the ledge
And stands there beside me, shivering out on the edge
And oh God all I, all I ask is a little relief, just a moment of peace

I don't want to live Without You
I'm not ready to live without you
So let's dance a little, laugh a little, hope a little more
'Cause I don't want to leave without you, without you

This thorn in my side, though it cuts and stings me
Has opened these eyes, I've never seen so clearly
And oh God, I thank You, 'cause You bring me to my knees
Back on my knees

I heard a voice from the other side singing
Hold fast, love lasts
As winter turns into summertime singing
Hold fast, love lasts
I heard a voice from the other side singing
Hold fast, love lasts
As winter turns into summertime singing
Hold fast

So let's dance a little, laugh a little, and hope a little more
Yes, let's dance a little, laugh a little, and hope a little more
'Cause I don't want to leave without you
No, I don't wanna live without you, without you

Without You Song Chart

For King & Country is a Christian pop duo made up of Australian brothers Joel and Luke Smallbone. In their teenage years, the Smallbones sang background vocals for their sister, gospel artist Rebecca St James . They are also the brothers-in-law of Jacob Fink, bassist for the band Foster the People.

Luke Smallbone endured during 2013 a life-threatening attack of ulcerative colitis. When he was at his worst, his wife, Courtney, feared that he was going to die and would be left without him.

This moving duet between Luke and Courtney details their worry surrounding his illness and how by experiencing great depths of pain and fear, he now has more joy and hope than ever before. Luke said: "The lyrics gave me the vision and the hope for what is to come. I know that I have today but I don't know if I have tomorrow, so in those moments, I am going to laugh, and I'm going to dance if I can. If this illness was to take me, it would take me as a very hopeful man."

Ok so here we go
Give me that
Mhm, just like that
Yeah, that's starting to feel like music right there
Give me a lil something else
Let's take em, let's take em back

Won't you bring it back?
Won't you bring it back?
Yeah we'll bring it back, yeah we'll bring it back
Singing together, dancing in the street
Music playing, moving to the beat ooh
Back in the time, that music make me smiling
The song will change the weather, we can together
But somewhere along the lines we lost sight
And we made the music go away
Take away our joy and we started fighting
And before we lose another, today

Won't you save? And we'll bring it back? Say we'll bring it back
Gotta bring it back, gotta bring it back
Bring Back the Music, bring back the life
Bring back that feeling, feeling of love
(Let me talk to 'em)

Songs of freedom, it's music make you free
It makes you happy, gave you all you need
Back in the time, it was ok to love
Music said the words you couldn't think off
But somewhere along the lines we lost sight
And we made the music go away
Took away our joy and we started fighting
And before we lose another, today

Won't you save? And we'll bring it back? Say we'll bring it back
Gotta bring it back, gotta bring it back
Bring back the music, bring back the life
Bring back that feeling, feeling of love

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Bring back the music, oh bring back the music
Never let it go away (Bring it back)
Hey, hey, hey
We need the music, yeah we need the music
Won't you let the music play? (Let it play)
Hey, hey, hey, bring back the music, oh bring back the music
Never let it go away
Hey, hey, hey
We need the music, oh we need the music
Won't you let the music play? (Won't you let the music play)

Bring Back the Music Song Chart

This song was helmed at Jerry Wonda's studio by singer-songwriter and producer Kortney Pollard, who performs under the name of Mali Music. Pollard explained to The Boombox how he approached working with Hudson. "I wanted to approach it differently, I wanted to connect to her," he said. "I didn't want to be a person who [said], 'Hey this is a song that means a lot of me, but you can sing it!' I didn't want to come at it like that. I was explaining it to her, and she was just looking at me like, 'You are crazy!' I want you to talk to me, I want you to share your deepest ideas, just concepts you have for songs or something that you saw on TV that you thought was profound."

"I recorded a 20-minute audio clip on my phone of her just expressing herself, talking about it and I wrote all the songs from her thoughts and feelings," he continued. "I would structure it with music, use certain quotes that she would, she would put a twang on something, I'd put a twang on it in the song so when I re-presented it to her, they were her babies. None of them were foreign."

"I guess I'm the type of writer and producer that wants to bring back the true connection of what they want to say," Pollard concluded. "It's cool that you can tell an artist, 'Hey, I'm a robot I gotta sing this song, it's not really what I agree with.' It was really cool on songs like 'Bring Back the Music' and another one called 'Moan' that she wrote in tribute of her mother with all the crazy things that happened to her family, all the tragedy and loss she experienced."

I'm A Slave 4 U Lyrics

I know I may be young, but I've got feelings too.
And I need to do what I feel like doing.
So let me go, and just listen.

All you people look at me like I'm a little girl.
Well did you ever think it'd be ok for me to step into this world.

Always saying little girl don't step into the club.
Well I'm just tryin' to find out why 'cause dancing's what I love.

Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)

I know I may come off quiet, I may come off shy.
But I feel like talking, feel like dancing when I see this guy.

What's practical is logical. What the hell, who cares?
All I know is I'm so happy when you're dancing there.

I'm a slave for you. I cannot hold it, I cannot control it.
I'm a slave for you. I won't deny it, I'm not trying to hide it.

Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me,
(I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place.
Oh baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me,
(Are you ready)
Leaving behind my name, and age.
(Lets go)

(Like that)
(You like it)
(Now watch me)

Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)

I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
(I just can't help myself)
I really wanna do what you want me to.
(I just feel I let myself go)

I really wanna dance, tonight with you.
(Wanna see you move)
I really wanna do what you want me to.
But did you want me to.
(Uh Uh Uh)

Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me,
(I just wanna dance next to you)
To another time and place.
Baby, don't you wanna, dance up on me,
(Are you ready)
Leaving behind my name, and age.

I'm a slave for you (take that) I cannot hold it, I cannot control it.
I'm a slave (it just feels right) for you (it just feels good)
I won't deny it, I'm not trying to hide it (baby)

Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)

Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)
Get it get it, get it get it (Oh)

[Panting]

I'm a slave for you (here we go now)
I cannot hold it, I cannot control it.
I'm a slave for you, (here we go) I won't deny it, (yeah)
I'm not trying to hide it.

(Like that)

I'm A Slave 4 U Song Chart

This premiered on the 2001 MTV Video Music Awards. Spears wore a live snake during the performance, which was set to look like a jungle, complete with a caged tiger. Britney was the big VMA draw at the time and expected to do something outrageous. The previous year, she stripped off most of her clothes while performing "Satisfaction."

The "4U" is a Prince thing. He has many songs with numbers and capital letters in the titles, including "I Would Die 4U."

The hip-hop production team The Neptunes wrote and produced this track, which is about a lady who will do anything for her man. The Neptunes (Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo) were red hot in 2001, doing not just production work, but also remixes for the likes of Backstreet Boys and Daft Punk, and also recording with their group, N.E.R.D.

This was the first single off Spears' third album, which she named Britney because it was her most personal. Like her first two albums, it debuted at #1 in the US.

The chorus is "Get it get it, get it get it," although it sounds like "Kitty kitty, kitty kitty."
