	Allentown (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The song's theme is of the resolve of those coping with the demise of the American manufacturing industry.
		In "Allentown", he sings: "They never taught us what was real; / Iron and coal, /Chromium, steel; / And we're waiting here in Allentown." The larger, adjacent city of Allentown was chosen to represent Bethlehem because it was more memorably simple as a title and demonstrated greater lyrical versatility.
		The introductory rhythm of the song is reminiscent of the sound of a rolling mill converting steel ingots into I-beam's or other shapes.

	Liederabend (Evening of Song)
		The piano was actually one of the reasons that these songs became popular, because it was an instrument that many people came to own and play, and composers wrote vast amounts of literature for voice and piano.
		But the German art songs were a unique and enormously important contribution to classical music literature, first, because of the large volume of "Lieder" that they composed, but also because of the great brilliance with which they were composed.
		The composers were able to fuse so perfectly the text with the piano accompaniment, which often acted as an equal partner in the telling of the story and was able to heighten the drama.

		We don't believe in making people wait two hours to sing their next song, so if a person has a few slips up, they will be slid in every once in a while to those who only have one slip up.

		It is their song, and if they want to do it alone, please, let them do it alone.

		Certified quadruple platinum for selling more than 4 million copies, this debut compilation of songs identified Wilson in the tradition of Loretta Lynn and Dolly Parton, writing and singing about life and their personal experiences in brutally honest terms and adding a rowdy edge that is usually reserved for male country artists.
		Wilson was slinging drinks and singing with a bar band in Nashville when John Rich of the country duo Big and Rich urged her to join the "Muzik Mafia," a group of struggling artists that met for jam sessions where they could support and critique one another.
		The group's current CD, "Coming Home," includes the song "County Fair" described as a "verbal video of the American phenomenon" that is an agricultural fair such as Allentown's.

		The songs are strange and sometimes inaccessable, and even the hit singles had a palpable feeling of dread.
		It might be worth noting that the three hits on this CD (Allentown, Pressure, and Goodnight Saigon) are usually among the songs that fans call their least favorite (especially Pressure), but don't let that turn you off from hearing the rest of the CD.
		Allentown starts with a work whistle and resonating drum and percussion sounds, really emphasizing the hard-working tone of the lyrics, and the gentle melody understates the bitterness of the words.

		I must say that I was a little worried about meeting up with her considering the fact that the extent of my conversations with her consisted of a week's worth of emailing.

		Sooo, Gordon and I left the Land after my choir concert, and even though Allentown was apparently hours and hours away, and Mapquest had decided to totally screw with our minds, we got to the Symphony Hall before the doors even opened, and were able to join the line with everybody else in the world.

	Allentown Art Museum: Inspire! Artist Residencies
		The simplicity of a group sitting around a large drum, playing the same beat together, singing a song together in unison, or dancing in a circle, stands as a beautiful living metaphor for the interconnectedness of the human community and all life on earth.
		Teaching about Native American music and culture allows me to connect music, history and sociology into an enriching program for all age groups, a program that is as interactive as it is instructive, and brings children together through the pure joy of singing, drumming and dancing.
		In my residencies, I examine with the students what makes a song work: how does this lyric make us feel and why did the composer choose to write it that way.

		I have a soft spot for Song, the stylish low-cost carrier that Delta Airlines launched in 2003 and that it now plans to terminate in May.
		With its wacky tropical colors, witty crews, seatback TVs, extra legroom and gourmet sandwiches and salads, Song struck all the right notes when I rode it last year on a barnstorming tour to review low-cost carriers.
		Some critics view the recycling of Song as Delta putting a positive spin on the failure of a brand that couldn't make it on its own.
