"She will never learn the most necessary, most difficult and principal thing in music, that is time, because from childhood she has designedly cultivated the habit of ignoring the beat." Letter to Leopold Mozart (24 October 1777)
One of the most enthusiastic songs and videos of the late 20th century was a-ha’s “Take On Me.”
a-ha, Take On Me
It is known as one of the “truly great pop songs” of the era. This video is the great story of the song –
No comment I read in public said it better than this on YouTube® –
“The interesting thing here is that the song was composed before they even met Morten, and still it appears to be written exactly for his vocal range There are very few singers who have volume and expression across more than two octaves. The riff and the refrain were created independently from each other but still it all fits together so nicely and organically.”

Are these three songs best
a) at night;
b) during the day;
c) as night falls
d) depends on my mood?
Full disclosure, I love these three as songs of civil dusk. I have been blessed enough to listen and watch all three bands perform the songs that way, as can be seen in the links below.
Are the songs better
a) in their live versions;
b) in their studio versions;
c) it depends on my mood.
Full personal disclosure again: to me, I usually like these songs better at night, though my mood upon listening usually takes over. Nothing to brag of, I know! How about you?
I compose morning Episcopal music. The musicians on this page? THANK YOU 👉🏽❤️❤️❤️!!! It is an interesting thing to take a Martin Luther or Ralph Vaughn Williams or Martin Luther hymn and change some of the 1600s harmonies into 2018 harmonies. Hint: fewer diminished seconds, more 9ths in place of same. In some keys, as C, the major 3rd is a harsh interval as the E, to allow for equal temperament, stretches toward the perfect 4th, the dreaded F.
Revolution was a song written by John Lennon and Sir Paul McCartney.
There measurements were synthesized by matherton, by himself.
The lyric in the song John says he wished he had not included was
“And if you go carrying pictures of Chairman Mao,
You ain’t gonna make it with anyone anyhow.”
An excellent blog post on this issue is found at POET AT THE EDGE, by someone who did not sign their name.
“The Revolution led to the destruction of much of China’s traditional cultural heritage and the imprisonment of a huge number of Chinese citizens, as well as creating general economic and social chaos in the country. Millions of lives were ruined during this period, as the Cultural Revolution pierced into every part of Chinese life . It is estimated that hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions, perished in the violence of the Cultural Revolution.
Norm was inside the inside the business. He had a word of wisdom in regard to *any* good piece of music, especially popular songs:
“The song has *got* to have a different, new bass-line.”

The best co-writer I ever worked with was Norman Dozier. Real name.
Norm was inside the inside the business. He had a word of wisdom in regard to *any* good piece of music, especially popular songs:
“The song has *got* to have a different, new bass-line.”
Who am I to ever question Norman? I cannot say enough about the positive influence he had on me and New York City in general. I especially thank the organist Mollie Nichols for introducing me to and arranging the playing of new music written mostly by me.
So said: the orchestration was all Norm, and the orchestration of our version of Psalm 113 squeaked in the morning service with Bach, Vaughn Williams and others I have no right to name drop. Norm helped fit our hymn in the genre of modern classical. I have total respect for the rock n roll night services and the amplifiers and drums and keyboard samples – anything that flies your plane – but not at a Sunday morning 10:30 Episcopal service – for my taste.
Most of these charts were not intended to be classified when made.
However, when WordPress and Google merged, in a true “you get what you pay for” move, one ate the other along with 20-20K images I had posted. I didn’t take it personally. It happened to way better websites than mine.
Adam Levine carries on a tradition of beautifully played relative tempo.
Nullam Iudas malum non esse.
Take tristem et carmen facere meliorem.
Memento et ea in corde tuo,
Tunc vos can satus facere quod melius est.
Hey Jude, nolite timere.
Et facta ire et adepto eam.
Momento et non dimiserunt in vobis cutem,
Et hoc melius tu facere incipiunt.
Et aliquando vos sentio dolor, heu Judas abstinere,
Ne mundus super umeros portabunt.
Et optime nosti quod stultus est qui autem plays refrigescant
By faciens in mundo paulo frigidior.
Hey Jude, ne me.
Vos inveni eam: Nunc vadam, et vocem eius.
Memento et ea in corde tuo,
Tunc vos can satus facere quod melius est.
Dimiserunt ergo eam et sic in, heus Judae, inchoare,
Expectans aliquis ex vobis praestare.
Et non scis quod suus 'iustus es, heu Juda, et faciam:
Opus est motus de humero tuo.
Nullam Iudas malum non esse.
Take tristem et carmen facere meliorem.
Memento dimiserunt in vobis cutem,
Tunc youll incipiunt eam
Magis bonum magis bonum magis melius: O.
Na na na na na na na na, ... Hey Jude
Luckily it has happened before because usually yeah, it is true – you pay for what you get. Google and WordPress have given me tremendous computer power for no money. The only extra money I spent with WordPress was and is for extra storage space in order that the images be large and clear. I spend extra with WordPress for a url redirect as typing in “rooseveltparexperiment.wordpress.com” is too complicated for the age where a D-Wave computer is passé.
