Answer:
Explanation:
I don’t know if there is a more heart-rending song than “Dance With My Father” by Luther Vandross.
To write a great song, you need to be able to look into your soul. You need to reflect on deep personal experiences. You need to be able to connect with other people who want to share your story.
Great songwriters do this every day. Most of the great records you can sing in your head have been written like this.
But every once in a while, a songwriter goes deeper than they ever have before…indeed deeper than nearly every other songwriter has gone before…and creates something so intense, so personal and so heartfelt that their song transcends anything else they’ve written up to that point.
“Dance With My Father” is one such song.
It was co-written by Luther Vandross and Richard Marx (a successful songwriter and performer in his own right, with hits like “Hazard”) and tells the story of Luther Vandross’s childhood.
Luther’s father passed away when he was just seven years old. I can’t imagine what he went through at the time. Those sorts of scars never heal, I guess.
However, as children often do, a particular incident stuck in Luther Vandross’s mind over the years. He remembered seeing his parents dancing together in the living room in their home and how happy that made them.
Although it was his mum, rather than himself, who was dancing with his father, by switching the characters around a little, Luther Vandross created a lovely metaphor for spending time with his dad as a kid, whether or not they were actually dancing together.
Because Luther Vandross was writing about such a deeply personal experience, the lyrics really get to you…
Back when I was a child
Before life removed all the innocence
My father would lift me high
And dance with my mother and me
Then spin me round till I fell asleep
Then up the stairs he would carry me
And I knew for sure I was loved
Especially if you’ve had your own challenges in life, knowing for sure that you are loved is all any of us are really looking for in our earthy existence.
If we’re lucky, that’s something we get from our parents. Perhaps from a spouse, partner or lover. Maybe a life-long friend.
If just one single person in the world makes you know for sure that you are loved, then the world can be a magical place.
So, whilst Luther Vandross is singing about his personal experience as a child, his song is so powerful because he’s really singing it for all of us. Reminding us what it’s like to be loved unconditionally.
Of course, all good things come to an end. Usually before we’re ready for them to draw to a close.
Maybe we get over it after a while. Perhaps we meet someone who helps soothe our pain and, gradually, we re-discover feelings we thought had gone for ever.
Sometimes we spend the rest of our lives wishing we could relive those days again. We never get over our loss. Numbness comes to define our lives and we go out of our way to make sure we never feel a loss like that again. We push people away who want to help and we retreat into a world filled with sadness and regret.
We all deal with situations like this very differently.
I wish I could tell you there was one “right answer”…one fail-safe way that takes the pain away and helps you get on with your life.
I’m sorry to tell you, there isn’t a magic answer hiding somewhere just waiting for you to find it.
Whether we’re able to move on with our lives or not, there will always be a memory inside. There will always be that feeling we’d give anything to recapture, even just for a moment.
Answer:
The song is an autobiographical and talks about nothing but Vandross' happy childhood memories of growing up with his father and how he wished he could relive those happy moments once again

How essential is music to a dance?
Answer:
Music is normally used in dance.
Explanation:
However, you don't really need music to dance. People practice dancing all the time without music. Dance and music don't go hand in hand all the time. They normally do, however, because the beat of the music makes it easier to make dance moves fluid and natural.

please help me with music i am so confused on this and noooo links plzz
Answer:
That note is a/an eighth note but it's hard to tell without key signature or without tempo or what time EX: 4/4 3/4
Explanation:
I am in band and do a lot of music
Answer and Explanation:
The answer should be 4.
a 32nd rest is equal to 1/4 (one fourth) of an eigth (8th) rest.
2 32nd rests equals 1 16th rest, so two of those combined will be an 8th rest/note. So, 4.
I was in band for three years and played 3 instruments.

“...Students who have been suspended are more likely to be held back a grade and drop out of school entirely...” -justicepolicy.org.
Based on this quote and what you have learned this past week, explain why the Zero Tolerance Policy has no place in schools. Be specific with your examples.
Answer:
The zero policy shouldn't ever have a place at any schools.
Explanation:
The reason why it is said that they have said that it has no place is that it won't allow someone to get the education that is needed to move on into society that way they could support themselves and not having to be feeding off someone elses money or even worse, end up homeless. As that was said, someone may have gotten suspended for someone else's doing's and could lose everything, Might go as far as ending up with an orphanage if you really think about it..

Select the sentence that uses subject-verb agreement CORRECTLY. a. My figurative language poem is due tomorrow. b. Here's Louie and Mike. c. Each of the Robert Frost poems were read by the students. d. My pen and pencil is in my locker.
Answer:
a. My figurative language poem is due tomorrow.
Explanation:
Sentence "a" is the one that uses subject-verb agreement correctly.
Option b is not correct because it should be "Here are Louie and Mike".
Option c should be "Each of the Robert Frost poems was read by the students" because "each" requires a singular verb.
Option d is not correct because it should be "My pen and pencil are in my locker".

The music of the Classical period was often written to be more accessible and enjoyable for all people, rather than just the wealthy. Why is this important? Do you think the composers succeeded in their aims? Why or why not?
this is important because music used to mean so much more than what we hear today, it had more meaning in the classical period. I personally believe that they did not succeed in their aims, they have great aims and points but no one in this day and age will ever consider this a known fact due to the corruption this generation has caused.

What is generally TRUE about the influences on the Classical era of music?
Answer:
The Classical period falls between the Baroque and the Romantic periods. Classical music has a lighter, clearer texture than Baroque music and is less complex. It is mainly homophonic, using a clear melody line over a subordinate chordal accompaniment,[2] but counterpoint was by no means forgotten, especially later in the period. It also makes use of style galant which emphasized light elegance in place of the Baroque's dignified seriousness and impressive grandeur. Variety and contrast within a piece became more pronounced than before and the orchestra increased in size, range, and power.
The harpsichord was replaced as the main keyboard instrument by the piano (or fortepiano). Unlike the harpsichord, which plucks strings with quills, pianos strike the strings with leather-covered hammers when the keys are pressed, which enables the performer to play louder or softer (hence the original name "fortepiano," literally "loud soft") and play with more expression; in contrast, the force with which a performer plays the harpsichord keys does not change the sound. Instrumental music was considered important by Classical period composers. The main kinds of instrumental music were the sonata, trio, string quartet, quintet, symphony (performed by an orchestra) and the solo concerto, which featured a virtuoso solo performer playing a solo work for violin, piano, flute, or another instrument, accompanied by an orchestra. Vocal music, such as songs for a singer and piano (notably the work of Schubert), choral works, and opera (a staged dramatic work for singers and orchestra) were also important during this period.
