			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><strong>Hooverphonic: Mad About You, Video + Lyrics</strong></h1>
<p>One of my favorite all times songs is &#8220;Mad about you&#8221; by Hooverphonic.</p>
<p><strong>Hooverphonic</strong> is a Belgian rock/pop group, formed in 1995. Though early on categorized as a trip hop group, they quickly expanded their sound to the point where they could no longer be described as a lone genre, but rather encompass alternative, electronica, electropop, rock, and mixture of others. The band originally called themselves Hoover, but later changed their name to Hooverphonic after discovering other groups were already using the Hoover name and to avoid any legal issues with the vacuum cleaner company.</p>
<p>On 10 October 2008, Geike Arnaert, the lead singer of the band, announced she would leave the group by the end of the year to pursue her solo career. Arnaert had been working on solo material for a few months. The last concert of Hooverphonic with Geike happened on 13 December 2008 in Tele-Club, Ekaterinburg, Russia. It was filmed by local MTV station and has been shown on Russian TV in 2009.</p>
<p>Hooverphonic have said that they are currently searching for a new singer. Auditions were held through their website but it is not known whether a new singer has been selected.</p>
<p>The original members of the group were vocalist Liesje Sadonius, keyboardist Frank Duchêne, bassist Alex Callier, and guitarist Raymond Geerts. The band achieved international recognition through the inclusion of the track &#8220;2Wicky&#8221; (from A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular) on the soundtrack to Bernardo Bertolucci&#8217;s 1996 film Stealing Beauty. &#8220;2Wicky&#8221; also appeared on the soundtracks of I Know What You Did Last Summer and Heights. The track&#8217;s main riff is sampled from Isaac Hayes&#8217; recording of the 1960s hit Walk on By.</p>
<p>Sadonius left Hooverphonic on amicable terms shortly after the release of A New Stereophonic Sound Spectacular. Kyoko Baertsoen, singer for fellow Belgian trip-hop band Lunascape, filled in for Sadonius for three months of a European tour in 1997 before Geike Arnaert was made the permanent singer in early 1998. Additional session musicians: Eric Bosteels was a session drummer with Hooverphonic from 1997-98, replaced by Mario Goossens until 2005. David Poltrock was keyboard player from the group on-and-off from 1998 until 2005. In 1998 Hooverphonic contributed to the Depeche Mode tribute album For the Masses, with their cover of &#8220;Shake the Disease.&#8221;</p>

<h3><strong>Hooverphonic &#8211; Mad About You Lyrics</strong></h3>
<p>Feel the vibe, feel the terror, feel the pain<br />
It&#8217;s driving me insane<br />
I can&#8217;t fake<br />
For God&#8217;s sake, why am I<br />
Driving in the wrong lane<br />
Trouble is my middle name<br />
But in the end I&#8217;m not too bad<br />
Can someone tell me if it&#8217;s wrong to be so mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad</p>
<p>Are you the fishy wine who will give me<br />
A headache in the morning<br />
Or just a dark blue land mine<br />
That&#8217;ll explode without a decent warning<br />
Give me all your true hate<br />
And I&#8217;ll translate it in our bed<br />
Into never seen passion, never seen passion<br />
That&#8217;s why I am so mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad<br />
Trouble is your middle name<br />
But in the end you&#8217;re not too bad<br />
Can someone tell me if it&#8217;s wrong to be<br />
So mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad</p>
<p>(Intermezzo)</p>
<p>Give me all your true hate<br />
And I&#8217;ll translate it in your bed<br />
Into never seen passion<br />
That is why I am so mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you<br />
Mad about you.-</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<h1><strong>We Are The World 25 For Haiti &#8211; Official Video</strong></h1>
<h3>We Are the World 25 For Haiti Debuts on YouTube [VIDEO]</h3>
<p>Recorded on February 1st, 2010, in the same studio as the original 25 years earlier (Henson Recording Studios, formerly A&amp;M Recording Studios) &#8220;We Are The World 25 For Haiti&#8221;, in which Jones and Richie serve as executive producers and producers, was created in collaboration with executive producers Wyclef Jean, Randy Phillips and Peter Tortorici; producers Humberto Gattica and RedOne; and co-producers Rickey Minor, Mervyn Warren and Patti Austin to benefit the Haitian earthquake relief efforts and the rebuilding of Haiti.</p>
<p>Academy Award-winning writer-director Paul Haggis (Crash, Million Dollar Baby), whose own personal efforts as well as those of Artists for Peace and Justice have already saved countless lives in Haiti, filmed the private recording session to create the accompanying video and behind-the-scenes production, and serves as Film Director and as an Executive Producer with Jones, Richie, Jean, Phillips and Tortorici.</p>
<p>The 25th Anniversary recording features over 80 artists and performers. The recording of We Are The World 25 For Haiti embodied the same enthusiasm, sense of purpose and generosity as the original recording 25 years ago. Every one of the artists who participated, regardless of genre or generation, walked into the room with their hearts and souls completely open to coming together to help the people of Haiti.</p>
<p>Following up on the success of the star studded TV and Internet streamed “Hope for Haiti Now” event last month, a new version of “We Are the World” has premiered on YouTube, featuring more than 75 artists.</p>
<p>The video was directed by Paul Haggis, produced by Quincy Jones, and features a diverse array of artists including Mary J. Blige, Tony Bennett, YouTube (YouTube) phenom Justin Bieber, and a flashback to Michael and Janet Jackson performing the song 25 years ago in a similar fundraiser for Africa.</p>
<p>The charitable connection here is a digital download – all proceeds from sales of the song on iTunes go to Haiti relief. The We Are the World Foundation website also offers other ways to donate, as well as more information about the song.</p>
<p>On choosing to use YouTube for distribution, the legendary Jones says in a Q&amp;A that “… with the stroke of a key on your keyboard or cell phone, images and messages can be transferred all around the world to hundreds of millions of people in seconds. That’s an enormous amount of power. How can you not try and harness that resource to help people in need?”</p>
<p>We imagine the results here will indeed be huge. In addition to the YouTube premiere, the song played during the opening ceremony of the Winter Olympics earlier this evening.</p>

<p><strong>&#8220;We Are the World&#8221;</strong> is a song and charity single originally recorded by the supergroup USA for Africa in 1985. It was written by Michael Jackson and Lionel Richie, and co-produced by Quincy Jones and Michael Omartian for the album We Are the World. Following Band Aid&#8217;s &#8220;Do They Know It&#8217;s Christmas?&#8221; project in the UK, an idea for the creation of an American benefit single for African famine relief came from activist Harry Belafonte, who, along with fundraiser Ken Kragen, was instrumental in bringing the vision to reality. Several musicians were contacted by the pair, before Jackson and Richie were assigned the task of writing the song. Following several months of working together, the duo completed the writing of &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; one night before the song&#8217;s first recording session, in early 1985. The last recording session for the song was held on February 28, 1985. The historic event brought together some of the most famous artists in the music industry at the time.</p>
<p>The song was released on March 7, 1985, as the only single from the album. A worldwide commercial success, it topped music charts throughout the world and became the fastest-selling American pop single in history. The first ever single to be certified multi-platinum, &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; received a 4× certification by the Recording Industry Association of America. However, the song garnered mixed reviews from journalists, music critics and the public. Fans enjoyed hearing racially and musically diverse recording artists singing together on one track, and felt satisfied in buying &#8220;We Are the World&#8221;, knowing that the money was going to charity. Other individuals, including many commentators in the rock press, were disappointed that the song did not challenge listeners as to why famines occur in the first place, and felt that the lyrics were self-aggrandizing.</p>
<p>Honored numerous times — including three Grammy Awards, one American Music Award and a People&#8217;s Choice Award — the song was promoted with a critically received music video, a home video, a special edition magazine, a simulcast, and several books, posters and shirts. The promotion and merchandise aided the success of &#8220;We Are the World&#8221;, which was eventually named the biggest-selling single of all time. As of 2009, it has sold more than 20 million units and raised over $63 million for humanitarian aid in Africa and the US. &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; has demonstrated that diverse musicians can productively work together, and has further influenced the movement within pop music to create songs that address humane concerns.</p>
<p>Following the devastation caused by the magnitude 7.0 Mw earthquake in Haiti on January 12, 2010, a remake of the song by another all-star cast of singers was recorded on February 1, 2010 in Hollywood, California. It was released as a single on February 12, 2010, and proceeds from the record will aid survivors of the impoverished country.</p>
<p>Before the writing of &#8220;We Are the World&#8221;, American entertainer and social activist Harry Belafonte had sought for some time to have a song recorded by the most famous artists in the music industry at the time. He planned to have the proceeds donated to a new organization called United Support of Artists for Africa (USA for Africa). The non-profit foundation would then feed and relieve starving people in Africa, specifically Ethiopia, where around one million people died during the country&#8217;s 1984–1985 famine. The idea followed Band Aid&#8217;s &#8220;Do They Know It&#8217;s Christmas&#8221; project in the UK, which Belafonte had heard about. In the activist&#8217;s plans, money would also be set aside to help eliminate hunger in the United States of America. Entertainment manager and fellow fundraiser Ken Kragen was contacted by Belafonte, who asked for singers Lionel Richie and Kenny Rogers—Kragen&#8217;s clients—to participate in Belafonte&#8217;s musical endeavor. Kragen and the two musicians agreed to help with Belafonte&#8217;s mission, and in turn, enlisted the cooperation of Stevie Wonder, to add more &#8220;name value&#8221; to their project. Quincy Jones was drafted to co-produce the song, taking time out from his work on The Color Purple. Richie also telephoned Michael Jackson, who had just released the commercially successful Thriller album and had concluded a tour with his brothers.</p>
<p>Jackson revealed to Richie that he not only wanted to sing the song, but to participate in its writing as well. To begin with, &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; was to be written by Jackson, Richie and Wonder. As Wonder had limited time to work on the project, Jackson and Richie proceeded to write &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; themselves. They began work on the song&#8217;s creation at Hayvenhurst, the Encino home of Jackson and his family. For a week, the two spent every night working on lyrics and melodies in the latter&#8217;s bedroom. They knew thlebrity news magazine People. &#8220;I&#8217;d go into the room while they were writing and it would be very quiet, which is odd, since Michael&#8217;s usually very cheery when he works. It was very emotional for them.&#8221;</p>
<p>Richie had recorded two melodies for &#8220;We Are the World&#8221;, which Jackson took, adding music and words to the song in the same day. Jackson stated, &#8220;I love working quickly. I went ahead without even Lionel knowing, I couldn&#8217;t wait. I went in and came out the same night with the song completed—drums, piano, strings, and words to the chorus.&#8221; Jackson then presented his demo to Richie and Jones, who were both shocked; they did not expect the pop star to see the structure of the song so quickly. The next meetings between Jackson and Richie were unfruitful; the pair did not produce any additional vocals and got no work done. It was not until the night of January 21, 1985, that Richie and Jackson completed the lyrics and melody of &#8220;We Are the World&#8221; within two and a half hours, one night before the song&#8217;s first recording session.</p>

</strong></h1>
<p><strong>Vevo, the spinoff of YouTube</strong> meant for professional music videos, has finally launched—with the usual sputter that comes with highly-anticipated website debuts. The site, which has been in the works since at least March of this year , is aimed at allowing the major record labels to put their stuff online on their own sanitized part of YouTube, outside the user-generated YouTube ghetto. Vevo videos are embeddable, though there doesn’t seem to be anyway for users to participate or mash them up beyond leaving a comment. Vevo is meant to provide an online clearinghouse for label-approved music videos–the kind of professionally shot videos that often cost half a million dollars or more and used to form the backbone of MTV. Vevo will be the exclusive distributor of these videos, and will handle all licensing and ad sales, although partner Google is handling the actual video hosting and streaming.</p>
<p>Vevo was just launched, but it seems they didn’t do their capacity planning very well as the site is very unstable. It is currently hard to connect to the Vevo site and when you manage to connect the pages load very slow and most videos won’t play. Vevo is not available in all countries. Most music videos were viewable by all users at Youtube but Vevo locks out everyone who is not coming from the United States. Vevo, the Recorded Music Industries answer to its business woes, launched last night with a star-studded party in Manhattan. It&#8217;s a new business model powered by YouTube.</p>
<p>VEVO sells all the ads for the videos, and while watching videos I?ve seen everything from pre-roll ads to the next-to-video ads YouTube users are used to. Since the content is all so high-grade, VEVO can charge more for ads, meaning more money for labels, VEVO, and YouTube (who?s hosting, and showing, nearly all the videos). Vevo lets the labels take a small piece of the pie back into their pockets. I actually think this is less evil then the old model of shutting down unauthorized videos on youtube and not re-posting them anywhere. VEVO is the leading innovative online premium music and entertainment service for consumers, advertisers and content owners that blends the very best in musical content with cutting-edge video technology and a thriving user community powered by YouTube. The content is made available on YouTube through a VEVO-branded channel, on VEVO.com (the service&#8217;s marquee destination site) and through a VEVO-branded embedded player.</p>
<p>Vevo&#8217;s experience stinks and YouTube should be getting slammed in the media for all the problems they have. But I think the media loves YouTube and does not want to make them mad. <strong>Vevo will take a similar tack to Hulu</strong> in offering &#8220;premium music video content.&#8221;. VEVO will be an EPIC failure because users like myself will not support it plain and simple. UMG has gone from the coolest music label in the world to horrible almost overnight.</p>
<p>Vevo President and CEO Rio Caraeff says the company is looking to hire about 35 people to do Vevo jobs. He says they’re hiring for positions including ad sales, engineering, accounting, music programming and others. Vevo is an immense pain in the rear especially for those of us looking for videos for project use, especially official Music videos. People go online so they don&#8217;t have to worry about advertisements, and commercials, if that&#8217;s where Youtube is headed I want no part in it. Vevo simply says &#8220;we have created a unique partnership. Vevo ony works if you live in the USA.</p>

<h1><strong>Howard Stern to replace Simon Cowell</strong></h1>
<p><strong>According to several sources throughout Hollywood we have unconfirmed reports that Howard Stern will be replacing Simon Cowell on American Idol.<br />
</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;American Idol&#8221; producers are eager to hire <strong>Howard Stern</strong> to replace <strong>Simon Cowell</strong> as the show&#8217;s tough-talking judge, sources tell Page Six.</p>
<p>An insider said that producers of the hit Fox show say Stern, America&#8217;s highest-paid radio personality, is their top choice to take over from Cowell, who leaves at the end of this season. They approached the King of All Media after he repeatedly mentioned on-air that his exclusive Sirius XM Radio deal expires next January and he was open to other offers. Cowell was paid $50 million a year.</p>
<p>A source connected to &#8220;Idol&#8221; said, &#8220;It&#8217;s one of the few shows that could compete with Stern&#8217;s $100 million-a-year Sirius contract, and &#8216;Idol&#8217; bosses think he&#8217;d be even nastier than Simon. &#8220;They know he would be great TV and would clash with the other judges such as Ellen DeGeneres and the contestants. &#8216;Idol&#8217; will do what it takes to sign him.&#8221; But a second source told us Stern hasn&#8217;t made the &#8220;Idol&#8221; talks easy, and has been giving out mixed messages about his intentions.</p>
<p>&#8220;Despite what he&#8217;s been saying on-air, Howard isn&#8217;t ready to leave radio and would like to stay on at Sirius,&#8221; the source said. &#8220;We believe this is a ploy to make Sirius pay up and keep him on his huge contract. But if Sirius can&#8217;t pay him the money he wants, he may negotiate to film &#8216;Idol&#8217; on the side.&#8221;</p>
<p>Stern is also believed to be reluctant to commit to a show that would require him to tour the US as a judge and spend much of the year in Los Angeles.</p>
<p>He recently said, somewhat cryptically, &#8220;I was approached by a major TV network to take over a TV show and leave here and do that next year &#8212; and I did turn it down . . . I&#8217;m not even sure if I want to be working. I&#8217;m waiting to see what happens.&#8221;</p>
<p>Calls to Stern&#8217;s agent and producer were not returned. A rep for FOX declined to comment.</p>
<p><strong>Howard Allan Stern</strong> (born January 12, 1954) is an American radio and media personality most notable for his radio show which since January 9, 2006, has been broadcasting on Sirius XM, an uncensored satellite radio service. Although described by the media as a &#8220;shock jock&#8221; for his sometimes controversial commentary and segments, Stern argues it never was his intention to &#8220;shock&#8221; people, whether discussing world affairs or the staff he works with. Stern is the highest-paid radio personality in the United States, and also the most fined, following a long history with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) since 1987.</p>
<p>Stern began his career in the radio industry in February 1975 at his campus station at Boston University, presenting a one-hour comedy program called &#8220;The King Schmaltz Bagel Hour&#8221; with college friends. Developing his on-air style for four years at Briarcliff Manor, Hartford and Detroit from 1977–1980, Stern paired up with his on-air news anchor Robin Quivers at Washington, D.C. in 1981. By August 1982, he arrived at New York City, the country&#8217;s largest radio market. Despite numerous disputes with management, Stern would have the top afternoon show by mid-1985. After being fired that September, he returned to New York airwaves on WXRK after a two-month absence, broadcasting for over twenty years until leaving for satellite radio, where he would be free from content restrictions imposed by the FCC, in December 2005.</p>
<p>Despite being little known outside the United States Stern describes himself as &#8220;The King of All Media&#8221; for his successes not only in radio but in print, film and television. His two books, Private Parts (1993) and Miss America (1995), received great media attention and sales, topping The New York Times Best Seller list within weeks of their release. The former was later adapted into a 1997 film of the same name directed by Betty Thomas, which grossed over $40 million in the United States alone. Stern&#8217;s television endeavors include various late night shows and successful pay-per-view specials.</p>
<p><strong>Simon Phillip Cowell</strong> (born 7 October 1959) is an English music executive, television producer and entrepreneur. He is known in the United Kingdom and in the United States for his role as a talent judge on TV shows such as Pop Idol, The X Factor, Britain&#8217;s Got Talent, and American Idol. He is also the owner of the television production and music publishing house Syco.</p>
<p>Cowell is notorious as a judge for his blunt and often controversial criticisms, insults and wisecracks about contestants and their abilities. He is often parodied in pop culture, and was described by the The Times as representing the &#8220;heartless, thoughtless and superficial – the flotsam and jetsam of the polluted seas of celebrity that is likely to sink without trace into toxic foam&#8221;. Cowell is known for combining activities in the television and music industries, having promoted singles and records for various artists, including television personalities. He was most recently featured on the sixth series of The X Factor, the third series of Britain&#8217;s Got Talent, and can currently be seen on the ninth season of American Idol.</p>
<p><strong>American Idol</strong></p>
<p>American Idol is a reality television competition which finds new solo musical talent. It was created by Simon Fuller and debuted June 11, 2002, as American Idol: The Search for a Superstar on the Fox network. It has since become one of the most popular shows in the history of American television. It is currently the #1 TV show in the Nielsen ratings and is one of only three that have been #1 for five consecutive seasons, along with All in the Family and The Cosby Show.</p>
<p>Part of the Idol franchise, it is a spin-off from the British show Pop Idol, of which two series were broadcast between 2001 and 2003 in the United Kingdom and Ireland.</p>
<p>The program aims to discover the best singer in the country through a series of nation-wide auditions which culminates in viewer voting to determine the winner. Through telephone and SMS Text voting, America has chosen past winners Kelly Clarkson, Ruben Studdard, Fantasia Barrino, Carrie Underwood, Taylor Hicks, Jordin Sparks, David Cook, and Kris Allen (listed in chronological order). Every American Idol winner except for Jordin Sparks (from Arizona) has been from the American South. The eligible age-range for contestants is currently 16–28 years old. The upper age limit was 24 in the first three seasons.</p>
<p>The series employs a panel of judges who critique the contestants&#8217; performances: Grammy award-winning record producer and music manager Randy Jackson and award-winning music executive and music manager Simon Cowell have been judges for the entire series. Grammy award-winning pop singer and Emmy award-winning choreographer Paula Abdul was a judge for the show&#8217;s first eight seasons. The format originally featured three judges, with Latin Grammy Award-nominated singer–songwriter and record producer Kara DioGuardi added as a fourth judge for the eighth season. On September 9, 2009, Ellen DeGeneres was confirmed to be Abdul&#8217;s replacement for the ninth season. The show has been renewed for three more seasons. On January 11, 2010 Simon Cowell announced that he was leaving the show to pursue introducing his show The X Factor to the USA for 2011.</p>
<p>Ryan Seacrest has hosted the show for its entire run. During the first season, he was joined by comedian Brian Dunkleman. The American Idol band is currently led by Rickey Minor. Dorian Holley of Los Angeles Music Academy is Music Director and vocal coach ; he has been with the show since 2006.</p>
<p>The show usually airs on Tuesday and Wednesday nights in the United States and Canada, Wednesday and Thursday nights in Australia and Asia, Wednesday and Thursday nights on ITV2 in the United Kingdom, Friday nights in Ireland, Friday and Saturday nights in Israel, and Saturday and Sunday nights in Latin America.</p>
<p>Entertainment Weekly put it on its end-of-the-decade, &#8220;best-of&#8221; list, saying, &#8220;It&#8217;s given us Kelly, Carrie, Daughtry, and J. Hud. Idol rules the reality roost because the winners of Fox&#8217;s ratings juggernaut actually do go on to greatness. And Taylor Hicks? He&#8217;s the exception that proves the rule.&#8221;</p>

<h3><span style="color: #ff0000;"><em><strong>Shaquan Lewis, AKA Mad Skillz, Ryan-Skillzy, The Dell or Skillz</strong></em></span></h3>
<p>Skillz was born in Detroit, Michigan), but at a young age made Richmond, Virginia his home. He first made a name for himself by finishing in second place (Losing to Mc Supernatural) in a national freestyle competition in 1992, which resulted in a recording contract with Atlantic Records. Skillz&#8217; Atlantic debut, From Where???, and its single, &#8220;The Nod Factor&#8221;, were released in 1996, but sank without a trace. In the late-1990s, he allied himself with fellow Virginia natives Missy Elliott, Timbaland, and The Neptunes. He made appearances on Timbaland&#8217;s albums Tim&#8217;s Bio in 1998, and Indecent Proposal in 2001; Timbaland made plans to sign Skillz to the Blackhand label he was developing; however, the label failed to materialize. He along with Danja Mowf, Lonnie B, and Kalonji, members of Skillz&#8217; Supafriendz collective, also appeared on a remix of Aaliyah&#8217;s hit single &#8220;Are You That Somebody&#8221; in 1998.</p>
<p>More recently (2000) Skillz is known for his tell all single &#8220;Ghostwriter&#8221;. Within this single, he names (but edits) artists for which he has written hit singles. It has alluding lines such as &#8216;I&#8217;m a ghostwriter, I&#8217;m the cat that you don&#8217;t see/I write hits for rappers you like and charge &#8216;em a fee&#8217;. Un-edited versions of the track have not surfaced but Skillz is known to do a live performance in which he includes the names. In one live performance he mentions P. Diddy, Foxy Brown, Mase, Will Smith and Jermaine Dupri. One artist who openly admits Skillz has written hits for him is P. Diddy. Skillz has also made a remix with Southern Texas rapper Lil&#8217; Flip for the song &#8220;Dem Boyz&#8221; which has also been &#8220;Screwed and Chopped&#8221;.</p>
<p>Skillz eventually got a deal with Rawkus, where he recorded his 2002 LP I Ain&#8217;t Mad No More, the title of which commemorated the official change of his MC moniker from &#8220;Mad Skillz&#8221; to just &#8220;Skillz&#8221;. The afore mentioned LP was never officially released in the U.S., however, during the Sprite Liquid Mix Tour in 2003 he sold some bootleg versions of this CD. The CD was re-packaged without several tracks as &#8220;Confessions Of A Ghostwriter&#8221; in 2005. A Supafriends LP, Supavision, and another solo LP. A client for the Mama&#8217;s Boys management company which also includes Musiq, Skillz has been a featured artist at okayplayer.com, run by Questlove of The Roots. Since the year 2002 Skillz has done a year end &#8220;Rap-Up&#8221; song that encapsulates the events of the prior 12 months. These have been well-received among fans.</p>

<p>Once again I wanted to dust off an old classic that is catchy. I particularly like the organ solo in this song. This song is by &#8220;The Animals&#8221; with Eric Burdon as the lead singer. Eric Victor Burdon (born 11 May 1941; Walker, Newcastle upon Tyne) is best known as a founding member and vocalist of The Animals, a rock band formed in Newcastle, England, his multi-racial funk rock band War[1] and his aggressive stage performance.</p>
<p>Burdon was lead singer of The Animals, formed during 1962 in Newcastle, England. They combined electric blues with rock and were one of the leading bands of the &#8220;British Invasion&#8221;. Along with The Beatles, The Who, The Rolling Stones, The Dave Clark Five, and The Kinks, the group helped to introduce the world to British music and fashion. Burdon&#8217;s powerful voice can be heard in The Animals singles &#8220;The House of the Rising Sun&#8221;, &#8221; Sky Pilot&#8221;, &#8220;Monterey&#8221;, &#8220;I&#8217;m Crying&#8221;, &#8220;Boom Boom&#8221;, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Let Me Be Misunderstood&#8221;, &#8220;Bring It On Home to Me&#8221;, &#8220;Baby Let Me Take You Home&#8221;, &#8220;We&#8217;ve Gotta Get Out of This Place&#8221;, &#8220;Don&#8217;t Bring Me Down&#8221;, and &#8220;See See Rider&#8221;.</p>

<p><span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Lyrics</strong></span></p>
<p><span>There is a house in New Orleans<br />
They call the &#8216;Rising Sun&#8217;<br />
And it&#8217;s been the ruin of many a young poor boy<br />
And, God, I know I&#8217;m one</span></p>
<p>My mother was a tailor<br />
Sewed my new blue jeans<br />
My father was a gamblin&#8217; man<br />
Down in New Orleans<br />
Now the only thing a gambler needs<br />
Is a suitcase and a trunk<br />
And the only time he&#8217;s satisfied<br />
Is when he&#8217;s on a drunk</p>
<p>Oh, Mother tell your children<br />
Not to do what I have done<br />
Spend your lives in sin and misery<br />
In the House of the Rising Sun<br />
I got one foot on the platform<br />
And the other foot on the train<br />
I&#8217;m going back to New Orleans<br />
To wear that ball and chain</p>
<p>Well there is a house in New Orleans<br />
They call the &#8216;Rising Sun&#8217;<br />
And its been the ruin of many a young poor boy<br />
And God, I know I&#8217;m one</p>
