Rosalie

Words and music by bob seger
Shes quite the mediator
A smoother operator you will never see
Shell see you later
And no one dares disuade her openly
She knows music
And no music till you see
Shes got the power
Of loyal teens - queen rosalie
Rosalie... rosalie...rosalie
Shes got the classics
Comes from all the corners, corners of the world
So fatastic
Shes everybodys little record girl
She knows music
No music till you see
Shes got the power... got the power, rosalie...rosalie... rosalie
From chattanooga to good bogalloosa
You can hear them fine
She makes her choices
And it may be best to smilin when its choosin time
Knows music
No music till you see
Shes got the power, got the tower, rosalie...rosalie...rosalie
Knows music...knows music...knows music
Rosalie...rosalie

Wings Of Music

Music must have wings and float:
ignore all that it signifies,
for the importance of each note
should be apparent when it flies.

Don’t worry about music’s meaning:
its importance is its sound,
which, unless you’re overweening,
should lift you above the ground.

Music basically is like
that strange emotion we call love;
like it, we mustn’t let it psych
us out, but lift us high above.


Terry Teachout writes about Sir Thomas Beecham in Commentary, December 2008 (“Beecham! ”) :

[Beecham] believed that the purpose of music was to give pleasure to its listeners, not to improve their moral condition. “You critics are always writing about the meaning of music, the ethic, the Weltanschauung of the composer, and God knows what, ” he told Neville Cardus. “The whole point of music is that it should sound well. Never mind what it signifies. Music should have wings and float and give delight.”

If unemployment could be brought down to say 2 percent at the cost of an assured steady rate of inflation of 10 percent per year, or even 20 percent, this would be a good bargain.

Skating takes up 70 percent of my time, school about 25 percent. Having fun and talking to my friends, 5 percent. It's hard. I envy other kids a lot of things, but I get a guilt trip when I'm not training.

Rosalie

Shes quite a mediator
A smoother operator you will never see
Said see you later
You know one day I disobeyed her openly
She knows music
I know music too, you see
Shes got the power
The teen queen, rosalie
Shes got the pleasure
Comes from all the cornerstones of the world
Shes so fantastic
Shes everybodys favorite little record girl
She knows music
I know music too, you see
Shes got the power
I got the power, rosalie

Then youd best be smiling when its losing time
She knows music
I know music too, you see
Shes got the power
She is a tower, rosalie

Lord Of Music (Hari Ng Musika)

Oh, Lord of music
what power do you possess
how come that you have known
what is inside my heart.

Oh, Lord of music
what power do you possess
how come that your music
have made me forget
all the pain in my heart.

Oh, Lord of music
what power do you possess
how come that your music
have made me dream
to reach for the stars again.

Oh, Lord of music
I beg you please
oh, please
with your music
make my love find his way
back to me.
