[spoken]

Well, i had two weeks vacation comin', so i thought i'd drive down to florida: spend some time with an old friend, date a few girls, make a few parties, and just kinda live it up again.

So i packed up my car, and then i called my mom in tennesee, and told her what i planned to do. she said, "son, are you comin' by?" and i said, "mom, i'm really pushed for time, b
Ll see you in a week or two."

And i was drivin' through this little town in georgia when i remembered: today's mama's birthday. well, i thought i'll just stop and wire some flowers. shouldn't take too long; then i'll be on m
.

So i walked in a flower shop and the first thing i saw was this little boy, with his eyes full a' tears. i said, "what's wrong, son?" he said, "mama loves roses. and today's her b
Ay, and i haven't seen her in almost a year."

[chorus]
Roses for mama
Today's her birthday
Roses for mama
Today's her birthday

He said, "i live with grandma now. but i promised mama some roses, 'cause i talk to her all the time. i wanted to give her five, 'cause that's how old i am. but the lady said i couldn't buy
With just a dime."

Well, the little fella's story kind a' touched my heart, so i told the lady to give him what he wanted and charge it to me. then i told her i needed to wire a dozen roses to my mama, up in chape
L, tennessee.

I looked around, and the little boy was gone. but all of a sudden the door flew open and he come runnin' back in and he said, "mister, i forgot to thank you for the roses." he smiled,
Ook my hand, and ran back out again.

Well, i started on out of town. and i was feelin' real proud of myself for thinkin' of my mama and really carin', when i looked out the window and i saw that same little boy, kneelin', by a grav
An old cemetery.

I stopped my car and walked over to where the little boy was kneelin' down. and he smiled up at me and said, "this is where my mama stays. she says she sure does thank you for these pretty
." well that's when i had to walk away.

And i drove straight back to that flower shop and i said, "lady, have you sent those flowers to tennessee?" she said, "no, not yet." i said, "well, nevermind. i'll just
Them back with me."

[chorus]
Roses for mama
Today's her birthday

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.
