"Back to Life" is a song by American Singer Hailee Steinfeld, released as a single from the soundtrack of the film Bumblebee on November 2, 2018. Steinfeld also stars in one of the lead roles of the film
The song has been called an "electro-kissed anthem" with "shimmering production" and "loved-up lyrics", with Steinfeld singing "Our love's enough, transcending us through space and time. It's holding up. It keeps you and me intertwined." The chorus, which contains the line "'Cause I'm bringing you back to life", was called "earnest".
Steinfeld talked about the song in a social media post from October 2018, saying that it would be the first time she has her own song in a film she stars in. It was pointed out by Idolator's Mike Nied that this evidently does not count the songs she recorded for Pitch Perfect 2 and 3. Steinfeld hosted and performed the song for the first time at the 2018 MTV Europe Music Awards, two days after the song's release.

[Intro]
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life

[Verse 1]
Our love's enough
Transcending us through space and time
It's holding up
It keeps you and me intertwined

[Pre-Chorus]
What's a pipe dream if you ain't trying to do it?
What's a heartbreak if you ain't crying all through it?
What's a sunset if you ain't riding into it?
Let's drive into it

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life (Back)
And I know that you're gone but I swear that you're here
It's a feeling that won't disappear
And you're bringing me back to life (Back)
I was looking for something that I couldn't find
It's a feeling you give me inside

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This feeling's coming back to life

[Verse 2]
Our memories
They're more than just our history (Our history)
They lift me up
They flow like electricity (No, no, no)

[Pre-Chorus]
What's a pipe dream if you ain't trying to do it?
What's a heartbreak if you ain't crying all through it?
What's a sunset if you ain't riding into it?
Let's drive into it

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life (Back)
And I know that you're gone but I swear that you're here
It's a feeling that won't disappear
And you're bringing me back to life (Back)
I was looking for something that I couldn't find
It's a feeling you give me inside

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

[Bridge]
I can see you in the night
Coming through like flashing lights
When the world is passing by
Oh, oh, oh
I can see you in the night
Coming through like flashing lights
When the world is passing by
Oh, oh, oh (Oh)

[Chorus]
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life (Back)
And I know that you're gone but I swear that you're here
It's a feeling that won't disappear
And you're bringing me back to life (Back)
I was looking for something that I couldn't find
It's a feeling you give me inside
'Cause I'm bringing you back
'Cause I'm bringing you back
'Cause I'm bringing you back to life
'Cause I'm bringing you back to life
And you're bringing me back (And you're bringing me back)
And you're bringing me back
And you're bringing me back to life
This feeling's coming back to life

[Post-Chorus]
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
‘Cause I’m bringing you back to life
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
This feeling's coming back to life.
HAWAIIAN WAR CHANT
TOMMY DORSEY
SONGWRITER: PRINCE LELEIOHOKU/1860(CO-SONGWRITERS: RALPH FREED & JOHNNY NOBLE/1930)
COUNTRY: U. S. A.
ALBUM: HAWAIIAN WAR CHANT
LABEL: VICTOR RECORDS
GENRE: JAZZ

YEAR: 1956

"Hawaiian War Chant" was an American popular song whose original melody and lyrics were written in the 1860s by Prince Leleiohoku. The original title of the song was Kāua I Ka Huahuaʻi or "We Two in the Spray." It was not written as a chant, and the Hawaiian lyrics describe a clandestine meeting between two lovers, not a battle. The English title therefore has nothing to do with the song as it was originally written and performed in Hawaii.
Under the original title, the song was recorded around June 1911 by the Crowel Glee Club, and released by Columbia Records.
English lyrics by Ralph Freed were written in 1936 and the melody changed somewhat at that time by Johnny Noble. Tommy Dorsey recorded it on November 29, 1938, and it was released on Victor Records in the United States and Canada. In a 1942 performance, Dorsey's band featured drummer Buddy Rich and trumpeter Ziggy Elman for this song. The song was featured in the 1942 film Ship Ahoy starring Eleanor Powell, Red Skelton and the Tommy Dorsey Band. The song features prominently in Walt Disney's Enchanted Tiki Room, a Disney theme park attraction that first opened at Disneyland in 1963.
Spike Jones recorded the song for Victor Records in February 1946 with Carl Grayson on vocal. It reached number eight on the charts, according to Joel Whitburn.
William Pitt Leleiohoku II, Born Kalahoʻolewa (January 10, 1855 – April 9, 1877), was a prince of the Kingdom of Hawaiʻi and member of the reigning House of Kalākaua. At birth, he was hānai (informally adopted) by Ruth Keʻelikōlani and later legally adopted by her in 1862 as the heir to her vast land holdings. He was educated at St. Alban's College, a precursor of the present ʻIolani School. After finishing his education, he worked in the governmental Foreign Office and served as an officer on the personal military staff of King Lunalilo. On February 14, 1874, his brother Kalākaua was elected king after the death of Lunalilo. Declared heir apparent to his childless brother, Leleiohoku was expected to inherit the throne of Hawaii. He would also serve as a Privy Councilor and member of the House of Nobles in the Legislature of the Kingdom of Hawaii. During Kalākaua's trip to the United States to negotiate the Reciprocity Treaty of 1875, he ruled as regent in the monarch's absence from November 17, 1874, to February 15, 1875. Leleiohoku died at the age of 22 from rheumatic fever resulting in the proclamation of his sister Liliʻuokalani as the next heir to the throne. An accomplished musical composer, Leleiohoku is remembered for composing many folk songs including "Kāua I Ka Huahuaʻi", which was adapted into the American popular song "Hawaiian War Chant".
There's a sunny little funny little melody
That was started by a native down in Waikiki
He would gather a crowd down beside the sea
And they'd play his gay Hawaiian chant
Soon the other little natives started singin' it
And the hula hula maidens started swingin' it
Like a tropical storm that's the way it hit
Funny little gay Hawaiian Chant
Ow way tah tualan Me big bad fightin' man
Tho it started on an island down Hawaii way
It's as popular in Tennessee or Ioway
If you wander into any cabaret
You will hear this gay Hawaiian Chant.

GENRE:ROCK PROGRESSIVE
YEAR: 1974

Crime of the Century is the third studio album by the English rock band Supertramp, released in September 1974 on A&M Records. Crime of the Century was Supertramp's commercial breakthrough in both the US and UK, aided by the UK hit "Dreamer" and the US hit "Bloody Well Right". It was a UK Top 10 album and a US Top 40 album, eventually being certified Gold in the US in 1977 after the release of Even in the Quietest Moments.... The album was Supertramp's first to feature drummer Bob Siebenberg(at the time credited as Bob C. Benberg), woodwinds player John Anthony Helliwell, bassist Dougie Thomson, and co-producer Ken Scott. The album has received critical acclaim, including its inclusion in Rolling Stone's "50 Greatest Prog Rock Albums of All Time".
The album's dedication reads "To Sam", which is a nickname for Stanley August Miesegaes, the Dutch millionaire who supported the band financially from 1969–72
Supertramp (known as Daddy in 1969–1970) are an English rock band formed in London in 1969. Though their music was initially categorised as progressive rock, they later incorporated a combination of traditional rock, pop and art rock into their music.
The band's work is marked by the individual songwriting of founders Roger Hodgson and Rick Davies and the prominent use of Wurlitzer electric piano and saxophone. Though their early style was progressive, they enjoyed greater commercial success when they incorporated more radio-friendly pop elements into their work in the mid-1970s, going on to sell more than 60 million albums. The band reached their commercial peak with 1979's Breakfast in America, which sold more than 20 million copies.
Supertramp attained significant popularity in the US, Canada, Europe, South Africa, and Australasia. Since co-founder Hodgson's departure in 1983, Davies has led the band by himself.
The actors and jesters are here
The stage is in darkness and clear
For raising the curtain
And no-one's quite certain whose play it is
How long ago, how long
If only we had listened then
If we'd known just how right we were going to be
For we dreamed a lot
And we schemed a lot
And we tried to sing of love before the stage fell apart

If everyone was listening you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall

Well, what is your costume today?
Who are the props in your play?
You're acting a part which you thought from the start
was an honest one
Well how do you plead?
An actor indeed!
Go re-learn your lines
You don't know what you've done
The finale's begun

If everyone was listening you know
There'd be a chance that we could save the show
Who'll be the last clown
To bring the house down?
Oh no, please no, don't let the curtain fall.
