| ARTICLES RELATED TO Sing | | | |  Sing: Encyclopedia II - Eddie Murphy - Singing careerMurphy was also a singer, and had two hit singles, "Party All the Time" (which was produced by Rick James) and "Put Your Mouth on Me" in the 1980s. The former is better known than the other, and is incorrectly considered Murphy's only hit. Intended as dance music, the song was repetitious and resembled the adolescent-driven bubblegum music of the '60s and '70s. As a result, there was a distinct disconnect between "Party" and fans of Murphy's edgier comedic persona. In 2004, VH-1 and Blender magazine voted "Party" number seven among the "50 Worst Songs of All Time," barely behind such efforts as Vanilla Ice's "Ice, Ice, B ...

| | | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - OpenType - SING gaiji solution In 2005, Adobe shipped a new technology in their Creative Suite applications bundle that offers a solution for the gaiji problem. Ideographic writing scripts such as Chinese and Japanese do not have fixed collections of characters. They use thousands of glyphs commonly and tens of thousands less commonly. Not all glyphs ever invented and used in far eastern literature have even been catalogued. A typical font might contain 8,000 to 15,000 of the most commonly used glyphs. From time to time, though, an author needs a glyph not present in the font of choice. Such missing characters are known ...

| | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Fleetwood Mac - Once singing the blues The group began as Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac in 1967. This version of the group released a series of blues-based albums and singles which did moderately well in the United Kingdom and Europe.
Founded by prodigious guitarist Peter Green, drummer Mick Fleetwood, and bassist John McVie, the three were alumni of John Mayall's Bluesbreakers, first appearing together on the album A Hard Road. After leaving Mayall, they were joined by slide-guitarist and Elmore James-fanatic Jeremy Spencer, and released two albums which put a ...

| | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Nat King Cole - Singing career His first mainstream vocal hit was with "Straighten Up and Fly Right", based on a black folk tale that his father had used as a theme for a sermon. Although hardly a rocker, the song's success proved that an audience for folk-based material existed. It is considered a predecessor to the first rock and roll records. Indeed, Bo Diddley, who performed similar transformations of folk material, counted Cole as an influence.
Beginning in the late 1940s, Cole began recording and performing more pop-oriented material for mainstream audiences, ...

Band Aid band - The lyrics.
The first line of the recording is sung by Paul Young on the 1984 version, Kylie Minogue on the 1989 version, and Chris Martin on the 2004 version. The line was originally written for David Bowie who finally sang it at the Live Aid concert.
Another lyric which appears to have been tailored to the singers performing in 1984 is The bitter sting of tears performed by Sting.
The most controversial and, many would say, powerful, line in the song is: Ton ...

Dartmouth College student groups - The Dartmouth Aires.
Originally formed as the Injunaires in 1946 as a offshoot of the college Glee Club, the Aires broke with the Glee Club in the late 1970s.
Although the Aires usually have about sixteen members, group numbers vary on a term-to-term basis. Auditions are held at the beginning of every fall term. Members of the Aires pick what songs to arrange based on the group's tastes. Because the Aires are such a diverse group of people, they end up singing a lo ...

| | | | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Sacred Harp - Origins of the music The music used in Sacred Harp singing is eclectic. Most of the songs can be assigned to one of four historical layers.
The oldest layer comes from 18th century New England, and represents a rendition in shape notes of the work of outstanding early American composers such as William Billings and Daniel Read, who worked as singing masters.
A second layer comes from about 1830, following the migration of the shape note tradition to the rural South. Many of the songs in this layer are believed to be originally se ...

| | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Sacred Harp - The music and its notation The name of the tradition comes from the title of the shape note book from which the music is sung, The Sacred Harp. This book exists today in various editions, discussed below.
"Shape note" music means that the notes are printed in special shapes that help the reader fluently identify them on the musical scale. Each of the four shapes is connected to a particular syllable: fa, sol, la, and mi; and these syllables are employed in singing the notes, just as in the more familiar system that uses do< ...

| | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Sacred Harp - Other books with the title Sacred Harp The Sacred Harp was a popular name for 19th century hymn and tune books, with no fewer than four bearing the title. The first of these was compiled by John Hoyt Hickok and printed in Lewiston, Pennsylvania in 1832. The second was compiled by Lowell and Timothy Mason and printed in Cincinnati, Ohio in 1834, as part of the "better music" movement mentioned above. Amusingly, the Mason brothers' publisher brought this book out in a shape note edition, much against their wishes.
The third Sacred Harp was the one by B. F. Whit ...

| | | | | Sing: Encyclopedia II - Fauxbourdon - History The earliest example of fauxbourdon may be in the Bologna manuscript I-BC Q15 (Bologna, Civico museo bibliografico musicale, Q15), compiled around 1440, which contains several examples, including one by Dufay, dating probably to around 1430. Since many early 15th century compositions are anonymous, and dating is often problematic, exact determination of the authorship of the earliest fauxbourdon is difficult. Dufay's contribution to this collection contains the first actual use of the term, in the closing part of his Missa S ...
