Download Song Way Back Home
Sharlene Bluestein
Ok so I've been a fan of kpop for a long time and I'm generally familiar with most big korean artists, so I was surprised when I recently discovered this guy called Shaun. His song Way Back Home has over 200m streams on spotify (combining the original and remix) and he has over 3m monthly listeners. Those numbers easily puts him among some of the top kpop artists on spotify.
So when I looked him up I saw that he was accused of chart manipulation back when the song first came out in 2018? But it seems like they never proved it and it was basically just a super viral song.
The thing is, to still have 3 million monthly listeners 2 whole years after this song came out is pretty astonishing to me. But what's more shocking to me is that I've literally never heard this guy mentioned before by other kpop fans, so who exactly is listening to him?
Back Home is the seventeenth solo studio album by Eric Clapton. It was released 29 August 2005 internationally and a day later in the U.S. It is his first album containing new, original material since Reptile (2001), as the previous release Me and Mr. Johnson is an album of song covers of Robert Johnson.
Back Home was Clapton's first studio album released after the death of his close friend George Harrison in November 2001. Clapton covered Harrison's song "Love Comes to Everyone" from his 1979 self-titled album as tribute. Clapton had played the guitar introduction on the original version. In Japan during the tour of George Harrison with Eric Clapton and his band, the song was played but only once, the first night (1 December 1991, Yokohama Arena).
In the starting verse, the speaker reflects on a photograph of himself and some friends. At the same time, he remembers sitting in a train boxcar as he stows away elsewhere. Celebrating his escape from the long arm of the law and the call of home, he seems happy to have chosen his path.
This song focuses not on a pair of lovers but on a home. Reflecting on a home lovingly referred to as the Big Beige, frontman Claudio Sanchez sings about how he and his wife rented the home out when they moved away. The new tenants turned it into a drug den, further damaged in a raid by law enforcement.
This track is partially about mental health. Here, we follow a man named Paul returning to his dreary, boring home. Seeing the cracked bush beds and broken garage door, he reflects on how much work he has ahead of him.
The band often sings about trying to escape their hometown and their dislike of their current surroundings. Home is a tumultuous subject for them. But when it comes to the closing track on their album Sister Cities, home becomes something to long for.
The song finds the singer stating that his travels around the world have left a bitter taste in his mouth. Most probably, he is disappointed with what he saw in people and his overall experiences in life. He declares his intent to come home because his lover is all he needs.
The song basically reflects on the mistakes the singer made in his life. The line, Let the rain wash away all the pain of yesterday, suggests that he wants to put them behind him. He just wants to be home with all the people who matter.
Whatever it is, there are countless songs that celebrate coming home. We hope you found a song, or two, to help you feel the moment of being home again. And may these songs guide you to that place or people where you belong.
When I was a little bitty baby
My mama would rock me in the cradle
In them old cotton fields back home
It was down in Louisiana
Just a mile from Texarkana
In them old cotton fields back home
Stories of people who've grown so accustomed to wartime that the lives they've left behind no longer make sense. Including a US battalion going home on leave after 15 months of deployment, and an Iraqi translator's story of life after the gig is up.
my songs're written with the kettledrum
in mind/a touch of any anxious color. un-
mentionable. obvious. an' people perhaps
like a soft brazilian singer . . . i have
given up at making any attempt at perfection/
the fact that the white house is filled with
leaders that've never been t' the appollo
theather amazes me. why allen ginsberg was
not chosen t' read poetry at the inauguration
boggles my mind/if someone thinks norman
mailer is more important than hank williams
that's fine. i have no arguments an' i
never drink milk. i would rather model har-
monica holders than discuss aztec anthropology/
english literature. or history of the united
nations. i accept chaos. I am not sure whether
it accepts me. i know there're some people terrified
of the bomb. but there are other people terrified
t' be seen carrying a modern screen magazine.
experience teaches that silence terrifies people
the most . . . i am convinced that all souls have
some superior t' deal with/like the school
system, an invisible circle of which no one
can think without consulting someone/in the
face of this, responsibility/security, success
mean absolutely nothing. . . i would not want
t' be bach. mozart. tolstoy. joe hill. gertrude
stein or james dean/they are all dead. the
Great books've been written. the Great sayings
have all been said/I am about t' sketch You
a picture of what goes on around here some-
times. though I don't understand too well
myself what's really happening. i do know
that we're all gonna die someday an' that no
death has ever stopped the world. my poems
are written in a rhythm of unpoetic distortion/
divided by pierced ears. false eyelashes/sub-
tracted by people constantly torturing each
other. with a melodic purring line of descriptive
hollowness -- seen at times through dark sunglasses
an' other forms of psychic explosion. a song is
anything that can walk by itself/i am called
a songwriter. a poem is a naked person . . . some
people say that i am a poet
How do I get back to the original screen on GarageBand? I have gone into My Songs (not that I have any of my own), and I now want to get back to the screen where I can play any instrument. Please help. Thanks
Thanks for replying, however, there is no plus sign on the screen that I'm looking at. I'm on the screen that shows one of the songs that comes pre-loaded with the application. It has all of the instruments used down the left hand side of the screen and the recorded segments to the right. Thanks in advance.
In that case press My Songs to get to screen where the songs are displayed. Then you can press the + at the bottom of the screen to create a new song where you can experiment. Or, as Carolyn says, press Instruments, however in this case anything you want to record will be added to or overwrite part of the current song.
Thanks for your help (both of you). I am now back to the correct screen but not sure if this will overwrite the pre-loaded songs or start a new one. I have noticed that this app appears to have an autosave come up on the screen whether you want it to or not. Does the app come with 1 or 2 pre-loaded songs? I have 2......
As you've seen, GarageBand will autosave the current setup of the song when you exit from the application or go back to the songs menu. When you are in the My Songs menu you can Send to iTunes as GarageBand (left-hand icon at the bottom of the screen). This can be used to create snapshots of a song's development. These can be reimported with Copy from iTunes (second icon) if you decide you want to revert to an earlier version.
[Verse 1]
The roads are the dustiest, the winds are the gustiest
The gates are the rustiest, the pies are the crustiest
The songs the lustiest, the friends the trustiest
Way back home (Back home)
[Verse 2]
The trees are the sappiest, the days are the nappiest
The dogs are the yappiest, the kids are the scrappiest
The jokes the snappiest, the folks the happiest
Way back home
[Chorus]
Don't know why I left the homestead
I really must confess
I'm a weary exile
Singing my song of loneliness
[Verse 3]
The grass is the springiest, the bees are the stingiest
The birds are the wingiest, the bells are the ringiest
(The hearts) the hearts the singiest
(The arms) the arms the clingiest
Way back home
[Verse 4]
(What about the sun) The sun's the blaziest
(And the fields) The fields the daisiest
(And the cows) The cows the graziest
(And the help) The help's the laziest
The boys (are the wittiest)
The girls (are the prettiest)
Way back home
[Verse 5]
(The pigs are the snootiest, the owls are the hootiest)
The plants the fruitiest, the stars the shootiest
(The grins the funniest), the smiles the sunniest
Way back home
[Chorus]
Don't know why I left the homestead
I really must confess
I'm a weary exile
Singing my song of loneliness
[Verse 6]
The food is the spreadiest, the wine is the headiest
The pals are the readiest, the gals are the steadiest
The love the liveliest, the life the loveliest
Way back, way back, way back home (No place like home)
[Outro]
Sweet home
In this song, the singer revisits his old neighborhood, recalling memories of walking home with food for his family and observing the familiar streets, pavements, and fields. However, he finds that everything has changed, including the road he used to cross to school now full of prostitutes, and he wonders about the whereabouts of his old friends and neighbors.
