Melbourne Song Download

The music of Australia and most particularly the rock, pop, Hip hop and indie rock music of Australia has had a long fascination with the local environment be it urban or rural. This is a list of songs which mention or are about Melbourne the capital city of Victoria, Australia, the suburbs of Melbourne and nearby locations. In 2004, an article by Michael Dwyer published in The Age discussed songs written about Melbourne. A list of twenty-five songs about Melbourne were also published.[1]

The Sydney Morning Herald ran a concurrent article discussing songs written about Sydney at the time. Paul Kelly had four songs in each list, one of which ("From St Kilda to Kings Cross") featured in both lists.[2]

I've been trying to place it all week, that song with the great harmonies about being on our way. Knew it was by an Australian band. Traffic Jam? No luck. Googled the lyrics. No luck. Finally today I was able to Shazam it.

Pop Song Writing is delivered as a lecture and workshop and will illuminate the fundamental principles of song writing. It is also a practical class forum for the workshop of new pop songs and provides the opportunity for the individual development and showing of new songs and group discussion of issues related to pop song composition.

"Grand Old Flag" is based on American patriotic song "You're a Grand Old Flag" by George M Cohen. It was written in 1906 for the stage musical 'George Washington Jr.' Cohen also wrote Yankee Doodle Dandy, later adapted for Hawthorn's theme song.

It's a grand old flag, it's a high-flying flag

It's the emblem for me and for you

It's the emblem of the team we love

The team of the red and the blue

Every heart beats true, for the red and the blue

And we sing this song to you

(what do we sing)

Should old acquaintance be forgot

Keep your eye on the red and the blue

Oh, the team played fine in the year Thirty-Nine,

We're the Demons that no one can lick, lick, lick

And you'll find us there at the final bell

With the spirit of Twenty-Six, Six, Six

Every heart beats true, for the red and the blue

And we sing this song to you

(what do we sing)

Should old acquaintance be forgot

Keep your eye on the red and the blue

You're a Grand Old Flag" is an American patriotic march. The song, a spirited march written by George M. Cohan, is a tribute to the American flag. In addition to obvious references to the flag, it incorporates snippets of other popular songs, including one of his own. Cohan wrote it in 1906 for George Washington, Jr., his stage musical.[1]

The song was first publicly performed on February 6, the play's opening night, at Herald Square Theater in New York City. "You're a Grand Old Flag" quickly became the first song from a musical to sell over a million copies of sheet music.[1] The title and first lyric comes from someone Cohan once met; the Library of Congress website notes:

The original lyric for this perennial George M. Cohan favorite came, as Cohan later explained, from an encounter he had with a Civil War veteran who fought at Gettysburg. The two men found themselves next to each other and Cohan noticed the vet held a carefully folded but ragged old flag. The man reportedly then turned to Cohan and said, "She's a grand old rag." Cohan thought it was a great line and originally named his tune "You're a Grand Old Rag." So many groups and individuals objected to calling the flag a "rag," however, that he "gave 'em what they wanted" and switched words, renaming the song "You're a Grand Old Flag".[1]

In the play itself, the scene with the Civil War soldier was replicated. The soldier's comment was the lead-in to this song. Thus the first version of the chorus began, "You're a grand old rag / You're a high-flying flag". Despite Cohan's efforts to pull that version, some artists such as Billy Murray had recorded it under its original title, "The Grand Old Rag", in advance of the play's opening, and copies under that title still circulate among collectors. Cohan's second attempt at writing the chorus began, "You're a grand old flag / Though you're torn to a rag". The final version, with its redundant rhyme, is as shown below.

For the creation of a major new song cycle for the Melbourne Chamber Orchestra, Lior again pairs with regular collaborator Ade Vincent, an adventurous composer who works across classical, folk, electronic, pop, and the space between.

1995 Jason Robert Brown song cycle Songs For A New World is well known to Melbourne audiences, having been staged both in the original format of four performers and with larger ensemble casts. The self-contained songs are often used in cabaret performances and every self-respecting musical connoisseur has a well worn copy of the World Premiere Recording.

Setting this season apart are two unique factors: traditional genders for some songs have been altered and the usually static staging of the show has been richly infused with dance; the title could well have been changed to Song and Dance For A New World.

Clearly working in close collaboration, director Lauren McKinnon and choreographer Benjamin Cur have explored the songs anew, sharing the spotlight between a supremely talented ensemble cast of 14 and adding varying degrees of dance to almost all of the songs. The risk for the insertion of dance was the creation of unnecessary distraction. The intelligence and flair of Cur, supported by McKinnon, sees swirling inner thoughts brought to vivid life through dance. It also helps that each cast member, strong singers all, can also dance, with around half being exceptional dancers.

Charlie Puth has been a longtime and vocal fan of the beloved 90s sitcom Friends and even put his fandom to the test in 2019 during an episode of Billboard's Quizzed series. Sitting opposite Courtney Cox, who played Monica on the show, Puth was hurled detailed questions about Friends and got a majority of them right. At the end of the episode, he pulled out a keyboard and played Cox the theme song.

In Lincolnshire Posy this is categorized as "'Lord Melbourne' (War Song)," where it is given a fanfare-like, almost arhythmic treatment. The song is better known as Lord Marlborough, to whom it properly refers. John Churchill (1650-1722), 1st Duke of Marlborough, soldier and statesman, is perhaps best known for his "glorious victories" against the French at Blenheim and Ramillies. He was a meticulous planner, and was also known for his consideration of the welfare of his soldiers, which is perhaps why he became so popular in balladry. He was also an ancestor of Winston Churchill, whose elder brother Charles became the 9th Duke of Marlborough in 1892.

"AH-MAZING! Aleks is not just a super cool DJ but also an amazing human. She absolutely nailed our non-wedding, wedding brief and had everyone up on the dance floor from first song to last. I felt like we did not just have a DJ at our event, but also a friend."

Great 18th-century composers like Haydn, Mozart, and Beethoven had written songs, but it was the young Franz Schubert in Vienna who became the Shakespeare of Lieder, composing over 600 songs in his short lifetime and more than 200 in 1815 alone, at the age of 18.

The idea of Lieder soon became adopted by other nations who adapted it to their different national styles and tastes. Composers like Faur, Debussy and Poulenc are among the great French mlodie (French art song) composers, setting Hugo, Baudelaire, Verlaine and Apollinaire instead of Goethe, Heine, Eichendorff and Mrike. There followed the establishment of different schools of art song in Russia, Britain and America together with great poets like Pushkin, Shakespeare and Emily Dickinson. The Nordic lands, Spain and Italy too made their significant contributions.

She was living here when she wrote what is probably her most celebrated song, Avant Gardener, about waking on a 40-degree day determined to tackle a rubbish-strewn garden that risked neighbours thinking "we run a meth-lab", and ending up taking an ambulance ride down High Street after suffering an anaphylactic attack: "The paramedic thinks I'm clever 'cos I play the guitar," she sings, "I think she's clever 'cos she stops people dying."

The song's punchline is that, Barnett's powers of observation notwithstanding, the house was actually in Coburg. Decoburg just didn't cut it as a title. "I'd already written the song when I figured that out. But, really, is about anywhere." 006ab0faaa
