Sir Duke
Harmony Unleashed: Celebrating the Universal Language of Music
Lyrics
Music is a world within itself
Music represents its own world, a distinct entity
With a language we all understand
It communicates universally, understandable by all
With an equal opportunity
It offers an equal chance to everyone
For all to sing, dance and clap their hands
All individuals can participate by singing, dancing, and applauding
Just because a record has a groove
A song's rhythm alone doesn’t guarantee its success
Don't make it hit the groove
Merely having a beat isn’t enough for it to become a hit
But you can tell by the dance that let's you in
However, the way people dance can indicate its popularity
When the people start to move
When individuals start moving to the music
They can feel it all over
They experience the music's impact completely
They can feel it all over, people
The sensation is felt by everyone around
They can feel it all over
Reiteration of the widespread impact of the music
They can feel it all over, people
Emphasizing the collective experience of the music
Music knows it is and always will
Music acknowledges its significance and enduring nature
Be one of the things that life just won't quit
It’s an integral part of life that persists relentlessly
But here are some of music's pioneers
Reference to influential figures in music history
That time will not allow us to forget, no
Time won’t erase their importance and impact
For there's Basie, Miller, Satchmo
Naming legendary musicians like Basie, Miller, and Satchmo (Louis Armstrong)
And the king of all, Sir Duke
Honoring the greatest of all, Sir Duke (Duke Ellington)
And with a voice like Ella's ringing out
Comparing a powerful voice like Ella Fitzgerald's to the band's prowess
There's no way the band can lose
When coupled with a voice like Ella's, the band becomes unbeatable
You can feel it all over
Reiterating the pervasive sensation of music's impact
You can feel it all over, people
Highlighting the universal feeling caused by music
You can feel it all over
Repeated emphasis on the widespread effect of music
You can feel it all over, people
Reiteration of the collective feeling induced by music
You can feel it all over
Continued assertion of the widespread sensation caused by music
You can feel it all over, people
Reiterating the pervasive impact of music on people
Can't you feel it all over?
A rhetorical question emphasizing the omnipresence of this feeling
Everybody all over, people
Encouragement for everyone to experience this universal feeling
