"Ready to Run" is a song by American country music group Dixie Chicks. It was co-written by the group's fiddler, Martie Seidel (now Martie Maguire) along with Marcus Hummon. It was released in June 1999 as the lead-off single from the band's fifth studio album, Fly (1999), and became their sixth entry on the US Billboard Hot Country Singles & Tracks chart, reaching number two. This song was included on the film soundtrack for Runaway Bride, starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts.

"Ready to Run" is a moderate up-tempo in the key of G major, with an intro played by fiddle and penny whistle, before electric guitar and banjo join in as well.[1] The song describes a female who is "ready this time"; specifically, that she is "ready to run" away from her wedding because she does not feel that she is ready to fall in love.

The song received positive reviews from critics. Rob Sheffield of Rolling Stone magazine gave the song a favorable mention, saying that it "sets the emotional and musical tone of the album, revving up the guitars to a graceful Celtic motif".[2] In 1999, "Ready to Run" won the Grammy Award for Best Country Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocal.[3] The song has been a staple of the group's concerts, appearing on the 2000 Fly Tour as the show opener, on the 2003 Top of the World Tour near the end of the main set, and on the 2006 Accidents & Accusations Tour as the final encore.

The music video for the song was a visually comic one that portrayed the Chicks as brides at a triple wedding. Before the ceremony is over, they reveal they are wearing sneakers instead of bridal shoes, and they run away, jumping on the back of a garbage truck and then pedaling away on bicycles. The jilted grooms chase them through the neighborhood, and they all end up back at the wedding site, engaging in a friendly food fight before joining in a circle dance. At the conclusion, the still-unmarried Chicks are seen collapsing to the grass by themselves in exhaustion. The video placed at number 26 on CMT's 2004 ranking of the "100 Greatest Music Videos".[4]

"Get Ready" is a Motown song written by Smokey Robinson, which resulted in two hit records for the label: a U.S. No. 29 version by The Temptations in 1966, and a U.S. No. 4 version by Rare Earth in 1970. It is significant for being the last song Robinson wrote and produced for the Temptations, due to a deal Berry Gordy made with Norman Whitfield, that if "Get Ready" did not meet with the expected degree of success, then Whitfield's song, "Ain't Too Proud to Beg", would get the next release, which resulted in Whitfield more or less replacing Robinson as the group's producer.

The original Temptations version of "Get Ready", produced by Smokey Robinson, was designed as an answer to the latest dance craze, "The Duck". The Temptations' falsetto Eddie Kendricks sings lead on the song, which Robinson produced as an up-tempo dance number with a prominent rhythm provided by Motown drummer Benny Benjamin. The song made it to No. 1 on the U.S. R&B singles chart, while peaking at No. 29 on the pop charts.[1]

The group's previous singles since "My Girl" had all landed in the U.S. Pop charts (and R&B charts) Top 20. However, although it hit No. 1 on the R&B charts (their first since "My Girl"), "Get Ready" was only a Top 30 hit (missing the Top 20 by nine positions), while "Fading Away" missed all U.S. national charts. As was promised, the next single released would have Norman Whitfield's song on it. When Whitfield's "Ain't Too Proud to Beg" (also a No. 1 R&B hit) made it to thirteen on the pop charts, Motown chief Berry Gordy assigned him to be the Temptations' new main producer. Ironically, the song did eventually become a Top 10 pop hit, but not by the Temptations, but by the Motown rock band Rare Earth. (The Temptations' version eventually reached No. 10 in the UK in 1969).

Until the group recorded "Please Return Your Love to Me" in 1968, this was their last song to feature lead vocals solely by Kendricks, as David Ruffin (who was with the group at the time), and later, Dennis Edwards, would be placed in that role in later songs.

The Temptations re-recorded the song as part of a series of promos for American television network CBS during the 1990-91 TV season. At the time, the network had been using the "Get Ready for CBS" tagline since 1988, and the song's lyrics were modified to incorporate the tagline.

The rock band Rare Earth regularly played "Get Ready" in concert, where it was a popular staple of their live performances, and recorded a version for their 1968 Verve release, Dreams/Answers.[5] After signing with Motown, executive Barney Ales asked the band to re-record the song for their first release on Motown's then-unnamed rock subsidiary, due to the audience response to the band's cover.[5] After recording a version which was scrapped, the band themselves set up their own recording equipment and recorded a 21-minute version, which later had audience applause dubbed in.[5] The new recording of "Get Ready" was edited down to 2:46 for a single, which was given a Tamla Motown release in the UK, the only release by the band to appear on Motown itself, and unlike the Temptations' version, Rare Earth's recording was a success on the pop chart.[5] The single peaked at #4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in 1970.[6] The Rare Earth version of the song also peaked at number twenty on the R&B chart.[7]

Rare Earth's version of "Get Ready" was routinely used by hip hop artist DJ Kool Herc in turntablism performances.[8] Pioneering hip hop journalist Steven Hager wrote that Rare Earth's recording "was a favorite in the Bronx because it lasted over twenty-one minutes, which was long enough for the serious dancers to get into the beat. They loved to wait for the song's two-minute drum solo to show their most spectacular moves."[9]

"I'm Ready" is a blues song written by Willie Dixon and first recorded by Muddy Waters in 1954.[1] It was a hit, spending nine weeks on the Billboard R&B chart where it reached number four.[2] The song became a blues standard and has been compared to "Hoochie Coochie Man", the standard also written by Dixon that Waters recorded earlier in 1954.[1]

I knocked on the door, and he was shaving. He said "You here? I told you to come tomorrow." I said, "Yeah, but I'm here today." While drinking, Waters ribbed Foster for bringing a suitcase for a weekend. He said, "I mean you ready!" And I said, "Ready as anybody can be!" He popped his finger and turned to Willie Dixon and said, "Are you thinking what I'm thinking? That's a record, man!"[3]

Dixon proceeded to write a song and "I'm Ready" was completed within about three days.[4] The lyrics continue the use of swagger and supernatural imagery found in Dixon's "Hoochie Coochie Man", which Waters recorded in January 1954:

In addition to the lyrical theme, "I'm Ready" incorporates a stop-time sixteen-bar structure analogous to "Hoochie Coochie Man". The song was recorded September 1, 1954, by Waters on vocal and guitar, accompanied by Little Walter on chromatic harmonica, Jimmy Rogers on guitar, Otis Spann on piano, Willie Dixon on bass, and Fred Below on drums.[5]

Muddy Waters later re-recorded the song for his albums Fathers and Sons (1969) and The London Muddy Waters Sessions (1971).[5] In 1978, he re-recorded it again as the title track to his album I'm Ready. The album, which was produced by Johnny Winter, earned Waters a Grammy award in 1978.[6]

Musically it's complex, but simple enough to be catchy, has too many Sections, but each one is memorable enough. The pacing of the song is almost perfect. There is no moment that feels dragged out or underutilised. The lyrics really reflect and sound great with the music, and Gabriel's performance (both Studio and Live) is phenomenal. It's one of the few Genesis songs that I don't really feel it's right when I hear Collins singing it (except if it's Apocalypse in 9/8 because he sounds pretty amazing as well for different reasons). Banks solo in Apocalypse, as well the Drums on it, is perfect. Hackett's small subtle solos through the song really builds up the last solo he plays on the song.

The song begins with a small acoustic love-song section in which Rutherford, Banks and Hackett play the acoustic guitar, each one a different part. On the top of it, Gabriel sings the iconic beginning of the song (and I always like to think that it's Collins singing the backing vocals, but I can't really tell). The song slowly progresses into a song about a Battle between the good and evil that both the protagonist and his SO happened to fall into. The song gives really high energy in this parts and Hackett's and Bank's small solos really outshine anything else. By the time Willow Farm get in, the song suddenly becomes too weird. The lyrics are weird and it's like the protagonist is into drugs or something. Willow Farm is the mid-point of the song, and really a break from everything before it. Of course the best moments of the song are the last 2 parts, where everything that was building up from this point totally gets redeemed. By the end, you feel like you experienced a story through music. And it satisfies the same every single time.

"I'm Ready" is a song by American singer Tevin Campbell. It was written by Babyface for Campbell's second studio album of the same name while production was helmed by Babyface and Daryl Simmons. Released as the album's second single, it became a success on both the pop and R&B charts, reaching the top-ten in New Zealand and on the US Billboard Hot 100 as well as the top-five on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. "I'm Ready" was nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Male R&B Vocal Performance at the 37th awards ceremony.

Lindsay Dibble, teacher at Newark Middle School in Newark, New York, created lyrics to singer Lizzo's "Truth Hurts" with colleague Sarah Rogers. Lindsay explains, "Our students were ready for their i-Ready Diagnostics! They have been singing the instrumental version of 'Truth Hurts' by Lizzo with lyrics created by Ms. Rogers and myself. It really helped motivate them, and it was a lot of fun!" 2351a5e196
