God said "let there be light" and there was light

rock music is noted to often include musical 'notes' and sung 'lyrics'

Hahaha! electric roolz. might as well quote the whole damn thing, for posterity's sake..

In the beginning
Back in nineteen fifty-five
Man didn't know about a rock 'n' roll show
And all that jive
The white man had the schmaltz
The black man had the blues
No one knew what they was gonna do
But Tchaikovsky had the news
He said -

'Let there be light', and there was light
'Let there be sound', and there was sound
'Let there be drums', and there was drums
'Let there be guitar', and there was guitar
'Let there be rock'

And it came to pass
That rock 'n' roll was born
All across the land every rockin' band
Was blowing up a storm
The guitarman got famous
The businessman got rich
And in every bar there was a super star
With a seven year itch
There were fifteen million fingers
Learning how to play
And you could hear the fingers picking
And this is what they had to say

'Let there be light'
'Sound'
'Drums'
'Guitar'
'Let there be rock'

One night in a club called `The Shaking Hand'
There was a ninety-two decibel rocking band
The music was good and the music was loud
And the singer turned and he said to the crowd -

'Let there be rock'...

From AccaDacca to Kevin Sheilds.

I think there's something in that for everyone, don't you?

Jan, we have to congratulate you for being in the Wire!

If popjustice.com hates it, it's probably rock.

A qualified "classic".

Nathalie,

Really? Where? My brother has the issue. I loved the piece by Peter Shapiro.
