Billie Holiday ~ Farewell To Storyville


Clarence williams All, you old-time queens, from new orleans, who lived in storyville You sang the blues, try to amuse, here's how they pay the bill The law step-in and call it sin to have a little fun The police car has made a stop and storyville is done Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train - a slo-ow train Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train - a slo-ow train They made you close-up they'll never let you back - won't let you back Go buy your ticket or else you walk the track No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain - the cold-old rain No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain - the cold-old rain Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill - your one last thrill Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain - the cold-old rain Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill - your one last thrill Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville more free lyrics

Clarence williams

All, you old-time queens, from new orleans, who lived in storyville
You sang the blues, try to amuse, here's how they pay the bill
The law step-in and call it sin to have a little fun
The police car has made a stop and storyville is done
Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train
- a slo-ow train
Pick out your steamboat, pick yourself a train
- a slo-ow train
They made you close-up they'll never let you back
- won't let you back
Go buy your ticket or else you walk the track

No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain
- the cold-old rain
No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain
- the cold-old rain
Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill
- your one last thrill
Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville

No use complaining, blue sky's folow rain
- the cold-old rain
Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville

Just say farewell now and get your one last thrill
- your one last thrill
Just say farewell now, farewell to storyville

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
