Billy Bragg ~ The Boy Done Good


Strange as it may seem, i once had my football dreams But i was always the last one, the last to get chosen When my classmates picked their teams I guess that was the way it stayed in every game i played Life just tripped me and clattered and kicked me Till you picked me from the parade Now i feel like i've won the cup every time that we Make love Forty-five minutes each way, at halftime i hear a brass Band play The boy done good, the girl done better, The seasons turn and we're still together, The sky is still blue and tomorrow is another day You weren't that kind of a girl who likes her studs to Be covered in mud Taking you to the pictures was a regular fixture For one of life's eternal subs I tried hard acting tough, but i just can't stand the Taste of that stuff Like some macho park player i got in the way of In some grudge match against his club But i'm happier how i am today now i've put my Boots away I guess i'll never get picked to play my song on match Of the day Words: billy bragg - music: johnny marr more free lyrics

Strange as it may seem, i once had my football dreams
But i was always the last one, the last to get chosen
When my classmates picked their teams

I guess that was the way it stayed in every game i played
Life just tripped me and clattered and kicked me
Till you picked me from the parade

Now i feel like i've won the cup every time that we
Make love
Forty-five minutes each way, at halftime i hear a brass
Band play

The boy done good, the girl done better,
The seasons turn and we're still together,
The sky is still blue and tomorrow is another day

You weren't that kind of a girl who likes her studs to
Be covered in mud
Taking you to the pictures was a regular fixture
For one of life's eternal subs

I tried hard acting tough, but i just can't stand the
Taste of that stuff
Like some macho park player i got in the way of
In some grudge match against his club
But i'm happier how i am today now i've put my
Boots away
I guess i'll never get picked to play my song on match
Of the day

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.
