Madonna ~ In This Life


Sitting on a park bench Thinking about a friend of mine He was only 23 Gone before he had his time It came without a warning Didn't want his friends to see him cry He knew the day was dawning And I didn't have a chance to say goodbye Chorus: In this life I loved you most of all What for? 'Cause now you're gone and I have to ask myself What for? What for? Driving down the boulevard Thinking about a man I knew He was like a father to me Nothing in the world that he wouldn't do Taught me to respect myself Said that we're all made of flesh and blood Why should he be treated differently Shouldn't matter who you choose to love (chorus) Intermediate: People pass by and I wonder who's next Who determines, who knows best Is there a lesson I'm supposed to learn in this case Ignorance is not bliss (chorus) (intermediate) SPOKEN: Have you ever watched your best friend die [what for] Have you ever watched a grown man cry [what for] Some say that life isn't fair [what for] I say that people just don't care [what for] They'd rather turn the other way [what for] And wait for this thing to go away [what for] Why do we have to pretend [what for] Some day I pray it will end I hope it's in this life I hope it's in this life time (repeat) more free lyrics

Sitting on a park bench
Thinking about a friend of mine
He was only 23
Gone before he had his time
It came without a warning
Didn't want his friends to see him cry
He knew the day was dawning
And I didn't have a chance to say goodbye

Chorus:

In this life I loved you most of all
What for?
'Cause now you're gone and I have to ask myself
What for?

What for?
Driving down the boulevard
Thinking about a man I knew
He was like a father to me
Nothing in the world that he wouldn't do
Taught me to respect myself
Said that we're all made of flesh and blood
Why should he be treated differently
Shouldn't matter who you choose to love

(chorus)

Intermediate:

People pass by and I wonder who's next
Who determines, who knows best
Is there a lesson I'm supposed to learn in this case
Ignorance is not bliss

(chorus)
(intermediate)

SPOKEN:
Have you ever watched your best friend die [what for]
Have you ever watched a grown man cry [what for]
Some say that life isn't fair [what for]
I say that people just don't care [what for]
They'd rather turn the other way [what for]
And wait for this thing to go away [what for]
Why do we have to pretend [what for]
Some day I pray it will end

I hope it's in this life
I hope it's in this life time
(repeat)

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.
