Music

=|| **Biography** || by Stephen Thomas Erlewine || |||| Johnny Cash was one of the most imposing and influential figures in post-World War II country music. With his deep, resonant baritone and spare, percussive guitar, he had a basic, distinctive sound. Cash didn't sound like Nashville, nor did he sound like honky tonk or rock & roll. He created his own subgenre, falling halfway between the blunt emotional honesty of folk, the rebelliousness of rock & roll, and the world weariness of country. Cash's career coincided with the birth of rock & roll, and his rebellious attitude and simple, direct musical attack shared a lot of similarities with rock. However, there was a deep sense of history -- as he would later illustrate with his series of historical albums -- that kept him forever tied with country. And he was one of country music's biggest stars of the '50s and '60s, scoring well over 100 hit singles. = = = = = = = = =Johnny Cash - American VI: Ain't No Grave= Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down

Oh, well, look down yonder Gabriel Look down on land and see But Gabriel don't you blow that trumpet Until you hear from me

Oh I looked on down the river Well do you think I see I see a bend of angels lord They're coming after me

Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down

Oh I'm going down to Jordan I'm going to bury my knees in the sand I'm going to holler out johsanna I'm going to reach that promised land

So now meet me Jesus meet me Yeah, meet me in the middle of the air And if these wings won't carry me I won't need another pair.

Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down

Oh there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down No there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down When I hear that trumpet sound I'm gonna get up out of the ground Well there ain't no grave Gonna hold my body down

Ain't gonna hold my body down Ain't gonna hold my body down Ain't gonna hold my body down Ain't gonna hold my body down Ain't gonna hold my body down || = = =http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c3iQrUBpn5w [] ||=

HURT - Johnny Cash I hurt myself today to see if I still feel I focus on the pain the only thing that's real the needle tears a hole the old familiar sting try to kill it all away but I remember everything what have I become? my sweetest friend everyone I know goes away in the end and you could have it all my empire of dirt

I will let you down I will make you hurt

I wear this crown of thorns upon my liar's chair full of broken thoughts I cannot repair beneath the stains of time the feelings disappear you are someone else I am still right here

what have I become? my sweetest friend everyone I know goes away in the end and you could have it all my empire of dirt

I will let you down I will make you hurt

if I could start again a million miles away I would keep myself I would find a way

“If You’re Into It” Lyrics – Flight of the Conchords
If you want me to I could hang around with you If I only knew that’s what you’re into. You and him, him and you If that’s what you’re into Him hangin ’round, around you You’re hanging ’round, yeah, you’re there too. And if you want me to I will take off all my clothes for you I will take off all my clothes for you If that’s what you’re into. How ’bout him in the nude? If that’s what you’re into. In the nude in front of you Is that what you’d wanna view? If it’s cool with you I’ll let you get naked too It could be a dream come true Providing that’s what you are into. Is that what you’re into? Him and you in the nude? That’s what he’s prepared to do, Is that the kind of thing that you think you might be into? And then maybe later We’ll get hot by the refrigerator In the kitchen next to the pantry You think that might be what you fancy? In the buff, being rude, Doing stuff with the food. Getting lewd with his food We heard that’s what you are into. Then on our next date Well, you could bring your roommate I don’t know if Stu is keen to But if you want we could double-team you. How about you and two dudes? Him, you and Stu, in the nude. Being lewd with two dudes with food Well, that’s if Stu’s into it, too. All the things I’d do The things I’d do for you If I only knew

That’s what you’re into.
