  Bob Dylan: It's Alright, Ma (I'm Only Bleeding)
And it's alright, Ma, I can make it.
But it's alright, Ma, if I can't please him.
But it's alright, Ma, it's life, and life only.

  Alright - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alright is an alternative spelling of "all right".
This is in contrast to the similar words "already" and "altogether", which have been used as compound words since the Middle Ages.
Even though it has appeared in many works of accomplished authors, the use of "alright" in formal writing is generally frowned upon and may be perceived as purposefully breaking convention.

 Are the Kids Alright? Alright Already   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
hile we readily acknowledge that the word "alright" may be considered non-standard usage in some quarters, it nonetheless remains acceptable usage according to a number of dictionaries and stylebooks, namely the American Heritage Dictionary, the Cambridge Advanced Learner's Dictionary, the Encarta World English Dictionary, and the Merriam Webster's Collegiate Dictionary.
Third—and presumably much to the annoyance of spelling purists—the word "alright" is also considered standard, acceptable usage in the style manuals of the Associated Press, United Press International, the New York Times, Time, and Newsweek (just to name a few of our more prominent periodicals).
The connection with the current documentary is that in 1974, the title implied that society's concern about the decline of social/psychological norms and needs among youths was unwarranted.

 Amazon.com: Alright, Still: Music: Lily Allen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Being, as she is, the daughter of prominent British actor Keith Allen, the cynics could easily dismiss the rise of Lily Allen as an act of backroom nepotism, a talent-free starlet helped to the stage by the right connections.
Besides catchy and bitchy "Smile", highlights in "Alright Still" include the MySpace hit "LDN", whose lyrics and video are dedicated to London, "Alfie" lyrically funny and genious (inspired in her real little brother Alfie), the informal bizarre "Knock 'Em Out", which features lyrics that were used as the title of the album.
"Alright Still" is nothing more than a wonderful kiss-off debut for Lily Allen, one of the pioneer albums which were able to go beyond the MySpace pages into the shelves of, hopefully, millions of people around the world.

 Jamiroquai | Music | Singles | Alright
The European release of Alright (printed in Austria) has the same tracks and catalogue number as this CD except for the cover, which has the same colours as the disc one release and is distributed in a plastic case, compared with the cardboard sleeve in which the UK versions are distributed.
Such is the case with their latest single, Alright, which debuted last week at 35 on the strength of Jamiroquai's own excellent mixes and now soars to number one after getting the Todd Terry terpsichorean treatment.
Alright is their second number one club hit in a row - Cosmic Girl hit the top spot for a fortnight last November."

 Alright, Demeaning Demeanor, A Little Latin Goes a Long Way, A Nice Question, Is OK Alright? and Beyond the Pale.
She claims there is no such word as "alright," that it is correctly two words, "all right." I always answer that, if we have perfectly acceptable words such as "also" and "almost" which were formerly two words, then by rights we ought to have a word "alright." But none of my arguments have convinced her.
The answer to whether "alright" is proper usage depends on whom you ask.
To travel outside of that boundary, beyond the pale, was to leave behind all the rules and institutions of English society, which the English modestly considered synonymous with civilization itself.

 Amazon.co.uk: Alright, Still: Music: Lily Allen   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Doubtless some corners of the press will pillory her as a poor role model, but there’s an engaging honesty to the likes of "LDN" - a love song to a city filled with teenage muggers, pimps and crackwhores, narrated by someone who’s cycling because "the filth took away my license".
'Alright Still' is the debut album from comedian Keith Allen's daughter Lily Allen.
The very fact that half of these songs are credited to about five or six people should be indicative of the piecemeal fashion in which they were no doubt created, tweaked and further refined.

 CD Baby: ALIEN ALRIGHT: The First Impression EP
London based ALIEN ALRIGHT in his second release - a mixture of Indie-Pop, Rock, Punk and alt.Country with elements of Hip-Hop, Funk, Reggae and occasional touches of Electronica.
Although your reviewer hasn't heard it, he can say for sure that Alien Alright prevously released a live and acoustic debut album called "Howard Good's Radio Sessions", but "The First Impression EP" is a far more rounded and ambitious affair musically, with all of these five tracks coming across as thought-provoking and uniformly excellent.
At first listen, Alien Alright's EP "First Impression" is a great set of 5 songs that display a subtle range of genre tacklings without sounding like the demo tape of a cover band.

 Language: When alright is all right - Editorials & Commentary - International Herald Tribune
The prominence of alright in pop music is clear, but some usagists insist that alright is all wrong, proscribing the curt conflation in favor of the standard all right.
To play it cool you say that something is 'alright' instead of 'wonderful' or 'amazing.'" She calls the superlative sense of alright "a contextually derived meaning where all right is imbued with the best possible meaning."
As well as causing a continual crisis with the red-pencil set, alright has also made it into the most hallowed spots in the rock lexicon: a word you can repeat endlessly regardless of context.

 MacAddict Forums / alright
I think grammarians, people who research the roots of words and other anal-retentive types take issue with the fact that "all right" and its informal friend "alright" have the same meaning whereas other words containing the prefix "al" do not.
People who try to get away with using "alright" in papers they turn in to me get that marked off, though, and that's just the name of that tune.
One good thing you can say for those that use "alright" is at least they're not as lazy as those who substitute "u" for "you" or "ur" for "your".

We do have a higher tolerance for creative spellings in creative spheres, although 'The Kids Are alright"' — a 1965 hit for the Who — "gave everyone permission to spell it wrong."
His rapid-fire staccato is a far cry from John Lennon's plangent repetition that closes the Beatles' "Revolution" (the B side of "Hey Jude"), but 35 years on and in a different genre altogether, alright is all right.
