If the Russians love their children too
Kilimanjaro, serengeti, wildlife, extreme climate and culture is the colour of Africa. Good and bad as simple as black and white here. TOTO express their point of view about this beautiful and wilderness natural ground by using their inspiration and skill. One of their best songs, Africa.

I know that I must do whats right
Sure as kilimanjaro rises like olympus above the serengeti
I seek to cure whats deep inside, frightened of this thing that Ive become

American woman, said get away

Don’t wanna see your face no more
James Joseph Croce (10 January 1943 – 20 September 1973), Not much information that I got from this sentimental and melodious guy, only one song that I always turn and return many times, Time in a Bottle. What make him so interesting is his beautiful voice and his strugle in facing this tough life. Only mature could make this kind of lyrics. Jim Croce.
But there never seems to be enough time
To do the things you want to do
Once you find them
I've looked around enough to know
That you're the one I want to go
Through time with
Starting from the group named "Tom and Jerry" in 1957 in Forest Hills, Queens, New York, and I don't care which Tom and Jerry they meant, but they grow together like the famous cartoon film that I like. The Sounds of Silence", "Mrs. Robinson", "Bridge over Troubled Water", "The Boxer", "Cecilia", and "Scarborough Fair" etc. made Simon and Garfunkel become one of the 100 Greatest Artists of All Time List. Breakup and reunion never make them separate because of their friendship as what they say in The Only Living Boy in New York.
Tom, get your plane right on time.
I know you've been eager to fly now.
Hey let your honesty shine, shine, shine
Da-n-da-da-n-da-da-n-da-da
Like it shines on me
The only living boy in new york,
The only living boy in new york.

Complexity and sophistication was their choiced regarding to their musical skill and more complex due to progressive rock standards. Consequently they became multi-instrumentalists.

Sweet in sadness
Now part of their past.
In the end
Full of gladness
Went from class to class.
As a progressive rock band that was born in London 1968, Yes makes symphonic and classical as their musical style. Despite a lot of many lineup changes, this group still stand for more over than forty years.

Yes.....they have a very Long Distance, colaborate with an English brilliant artist who always work together for cover or even on the stage, Roger Dean, which make this group unique and easy to recognize.
Long distance runaround
Long time waiting to feel the sound
I still remember the dream there
I still remember the time you said goodbye
Did we really tell lies
Letting in the sunshine
Did we really count to one hundred
What makes these guys so interesting ? My answer is because they're wild, on the stage even real life, as wild as Wild Horses.
I know I dreamed you a sin and a lie
I have my freedom but I dont have much time
Faith has been broken, tears must be cried
Lets do some living after we die
Wild horses couldnt drag me away
Wild, wild horses, well ride them some day
Robert Allen Zimmerman born 24th May 1941 in Duluth, Minnesota. By using guitar and harmonica he shattered improper things, from political, civil rights until social life in United States. Everybody Must Get Stoned is his dream about freedom.
They'll stone you when you're trying to be so good
They'll stone you just like they said they would
They'll stone you when you're trying to go home
They'll stone you when you're there all alone
But I would not feel so all alone
Everybody must get stoned
There's a place in Flint, Michigan USA called Grand Trunk Railroad. This inspired them and they called themselves Grand Funk Railroad who became famous to all over the world, and the beautiful thing from this American Rock Group's their dominant and uncommon bass instrument they play, on the other hand they said that they did not had to do like any other groups that they have to sing blues music. But someone said that, together we stand divided we fall and it happened to them. Someone still need someone.
Why, oh why, oh why should I care for someone,
Who doesn't care for me?
I played the game I was subject of, it was all in vain 'cause I fell in love with someone,
Who doesn't care for me, for me.
I hate the game and what it costs, to feel the pain for the love I lost to someone,
Who doesn't care for me.

A long, long time ago...
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile.
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And, maybe, they'd be happy for a while.
But february made me shiver
With every paper I'd deliver.
Bad news on the doorstep;
I couldn't take one more step.

" I’ll always remain the same person." I am just the same guy that I used to be when I was young. I am only a bit older now" that's what Harry Muskee one of the former said in some interview.

I was born to be simple man
Just to sing a simple song
But somebody came
Came and cross my life
I didn’t know what I’ve done wrong

He has a very long journey, from group to group, jazz, rock, country, even heavy metal and many more, but solo and blues is his life. It seems that he has no choice for that and still......

To give my heart away
But I found that the heartache
was the price you have to pay
I found that that love is no friend of mine
I should have know'n time after time

We skipped a light fandango,
Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor.
I was feeling kind of seasick,
But the crowd called out for more.
The room was humming harder,
As the ceiling flew away.
When we called out for another drink,
The waiter brought a tray.

Have your leaves all turned to brown
Will you scatter them around you
C'est la vie

Gone is my gladness and vanished my pride 'cause luck didn't stay on our side
Three Dog Night is a name that has given by June Fairchild to her boy friend's music group after she read about some indigenous people who live naturally in the wild with their dog against the cool weather. It could be, that this name also inspired them to write some lyrics that might be also their opinion about the lost world that they only could see in the movie, Cowboy.....
Cold gray buildings where a hill should be.
Steel and concrete closing in on me.
City faces haunt the places i roam alone.
Fought against Nike, asked some compensation and also asked to destroy all shoes that have been made by Nike because of the design similar with his Frankenstrat. Why don't you give all the shoes to the people who still need it ? But like what you say that that things makes me feel that I am human, yes we are Humans Being.

You break my balls with all your crap
Spread your disease like lemmings breeding
That's what makes us humans being
