TotÒ (stylized as TOTO) was an American rock band formed in 1977 in Los Angeles. The band's most recent lineup consisted of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro(keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), plus touring members Lenny Castro (percussion), Warren Ham (saxophone), Shem von Schroeck (bass) and Shannon Forrest (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues, and jazz. The band is currently on hiatus.
Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Lukather, Steve Porcaro, and Bobby Kimball were recruited before the first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band's eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV (1982), Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era.
Widely known for the Top 5 hits "Hold the Line", "Rosanna", and "Africa", the makeup of the group continued to evolve. Hungate left in 1982; Kimball left in 1984, but rejoined the band in 1998, leaving again in 2008. Jeff Porcaro died in 1992 of a heart attack. Hungate rejoined Toto as a touring musician and later a band member. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and was no longer an active member of the band. He died in 2015. The band celebrated its 40th anniversary in 2017. Toto announced an extended hiatus following the final leg of their 40th anniversary tour in 2019.
Toto has released 14 studio albums, and has sold over 40 million records worldwide. The group has been honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
Fahrenheit is the sixth studio album by Toto, released in 1986. It was their first album to feature Joseph Williams on lead vocals. Former lead singer Fergie Frederiksen was fired due to problems with his ability in the studio. However, he sings backing vocals on the song "Could This Be Love". It was also the last Toto album until Toto XIV in 2015 to feature keyboardist Steve Porcaro as a permanent member, as he left after the Fahrenheit tour. The album failed to go gold until 1994, but featured two top forty singles in "I'll Be Over You" (#11, #13 Can.) and "Without Your Love" (#38, #77 Can.). "I'll Be Over You" featured Michael McDonald on backing vocals, who also made an appearance in the song's music video. Singer/dancer Paula Abdul appears in the video for the third single, "Till The End."
Some people live their dreams
Some people close their eyes
Some people's destiny
Passes by

There are no guarantees
There are no alibis
That's how our love must be
Don't ask why

It takes some time
God knows how long
I know that I can forget you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

Remembering times gone by
Promises we once made
What are the reasons why
Nothing stays the same

There were the nights
Holding you close
Someday I'll try to forget them

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
As soon as forever is through
I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
Someday I'll be over you

As soon as my heart stops breakin'
Anticipating
Someday I'll be over you
As soon as my heart.

Due braccia grandi
Per abbandonarmi dentro
Se la notte avevo un po' paura
Occhi profondi
Per cui ero un libro aperto
Senza dire neanche una parola
Aveva mille modi buoni per svegliarmi
Quando non volevo andare a scuola
E mi chiedevo mentre le guardavo I piedi
Questo angelo perché non vola
Le mamme sognano
Le mamme invecchiano
Le mamme si amano
Ma ti amano di più

E così piccolo
Io avrei affrontato il mondo
Guai a chi si avvicina e chi la tocca
E che parole dolci
Come quelle torte al forno
Che veniva l'acquolina in bocca
Mi rimboccava fino al naso le coperte
Se pioveva avevo un po' paura
E mi tuffavo nel suo letto
A braccia aperte
Ad ogni tuono forte mi stringeva

Le mamme sognano
Le mamme invecchiano le mamme si amano
Ma ti amano di più

Le mamme guardano nel cielo
Un aeroplano
E quel treno sulla ferrovia
Parlano e sognano del figlio
Che è lontano
Davanti a una fotografia
Le mamme piangono e si asciugano
Gli occhiali
Mentre gli anni se ne vanno via
Se pensi a quando ti tenevano per mano
Sembra ieri che malinconia

Le mamme sognano
Le mamme invecchiano
Le mamme si amano
Ma ti amano di più
Le mamme sognano

Le mamme invecchiano
Ma ti amano di più
Le mamme sognano
Le mamme invecchiano
Le mamme si amano
Ma ti amano di più.
STARS IN YOUR EYES
VON D AT SEA
SONGWRITERS: DOYLE PEREZ & DANIEL JAMES MCMASTER
COUNTRY: AUSTRALIA
ALBUM: ANCHORS & DIAMONDFS/EP
LABEL: YOUTUBE
GENRE: POP
YEAR: 2014

“The Anchors & Diamonds” EP is Doyle’s first foray into music with a full band, non-acoustic side to his songs. The full production element has given an accent to his well crafted songs and with hardcore super-producer Will Putney, while the drums were played by Matt Halpern from UK Metal outfit Periphery. “While Anchors & Diamonds” is far from the sound of a hardcore or metal record, it’s the energy, attitude and song structures that gives D At Sea his edge over the pop majority.
Better known by his moniker D at Sea, Doyle Perez became a YouTube sensation after his acoustic cover of Parkway Drive’s “Carrion” went viral in late 2011. Since the Parkway Drive video D at Sea has released a host of other reworked renditions of songs from the hardcore genre including tracks by The Amity Affliction, Bring Me the Horizon and Of Mice and Men among others, garnishing more than 3.5million views on his YouTube channel and attracting almost 28,000 facebook likes.
Despite his growing fan base and notoriety, music wasn't always front and center for Doyle, who had not initially considered it a career option. Before an injury at the age of 19 his relationship with music was that of a fan, simply enjoying listening to other bands and, like most kids of the 90s, taping his favorite songs from the radio onto cassette tapes that would be played back later and copied onto mixed tapes to share with friends.
However injury forced him to reassess his priorities. Playing and writing music became a way to cope with rehab and changes to his everyday activity, as well as providing an outlet for his creativity.
For someone who took to music much later than most his acoustic renditions of songs from the hardcore illustrate his natural ability and keen ear for music. The self taught musician only discovered he was able to sing acoustically after meeting his girlfriend and fellow musician Millie Tizzard, who encouraged him to branch out from the more metal-focused music he was playing in bands Confession, Lemon Smashle and All My Friends at Sea.
They said you'd never get there
They said you'd never get far
Your heart was a skipping stone and the water's deep
It starts to sink in
It hits your chest when you breathe in
Can't catch the break that you needed

They say you'll only get out what you give
And you will only get out when you live like there's nothing to lose
Through the highest highs and the lowest lows
And in the dark you use the stars for light (at night)

You don't need an airplane to fly
Reach out and touch a satellite
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
And when you start to feel alone
I'll be the one to let you know
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
The stars are in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes

Now the mirror is a blank stare
You're half the girl that used to stand there
Your heart was so far from home
That it's hard to see, if it's beating
So you picked up all the pieces
You packed your shit up and you're leaving

They say you'll only get out what you give
And you will only get out when you live like there's nothing to lose
Through the highest highs and the lowest lows
And in the dark, you use the stars for light (at night)

You don't need an airplane to fly
Reach out and touch a satellite
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
And when you start to feel alone
I'll be the one to let you know
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
The stars are in your eyes
In your eyes, in your eyes

Fine your balance and composure
You're lost in the galaxy
Space bound, come down
Find your gravity
Fine your balance and composure
You're lost in the galaxy
Space bound, come down
Come back down to me

You don't need an airplane to fly
Reach out and touch a satellite
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
And when you start to feel alone
I'll be the one to let you know
There's nothing in the sky
The stars are in your eyes
The stars are in your eyes
The stars are in your eyes
The stars are in your eyes
In your eyes, the stars are in your eyes.
THE VOICE OF LOVE
JOHNNY NASH

ALBUM: THE GREATEST HITS COLLECTION
LABEL: ABC PARAMOUNT
GENRE: POP
YEAR: 1959

John Lester Nash Jr. (born August 19, 1940) is an American reggae and pop music singer-songwriter, best known in the US for his 1972 hit, "I Can See Clearly Now". He was one of the first non-Jamaican singers to record reggae music in Kingston, Jamaica.
Born John Lester Nash Jr. In Houston, Texas, United States, Nash sang in the choir at Progressive New Hope Baptist Church in South Central Houston as a child. Beginning in 1953, Nash sang covers of R&B hits on Matinee, a local variety show on KPRC-TV. Beginning in 1956, Nash sang on Arthur Godfrey's radio and TV shows for a seven year period.
Signing with ABC-Paramount, Nash made his major label debut in 1957 with the single "A Teenager Sings the Blues." Nash had his first chart hit in early 1958 with a cover of Doris Day's "A Very Special Love." Marketed as a rival to Johnny Mathis, he also enjoyed success as an actor early in his career, appearing in the screen version of playwright Louis S. Peterson's Take a Giant Step in 1959. Nash won a Silver Sail Award for his performance from the Locarno International Film Festival. Nash continued releasing singles on a variety of labels such as Groove, Chess, Argo and Warner Bros.
In 1964, Nash and manager Danny Sims formed JoDa Records in New York. JoDa released The Cowsills' single "All I Really Want to Be Is Me." Although JoDa filed for bankruptcy after only two years, Nash and Sims moved on to marketing American singers to Jamaica, owing to the low cost of recording in that country.
In 1965, Nash had a top five hit in the U.S. R&B chart, the ballad "Let's Move and Groove Together." That year, he and Sims moved to Jamaica. Their lawyer Newton Willoughby was the father of Jamaican radio host Neville Willoughby. After selling off his old entertainment assets in New York, Sims opened a new music publishing business in Jamaica, Cayman Music. Nash planned to try breaking the local rocksteady sound in the United States. Around 1966 or 1967, Neville Willoughby took Nash to a Rastafarian party where Bob Marley & The Wailing Wailers were performing. Members Bob Marley, Bunny Wailer, Peter Tosh and Rita Marley introduced Nash to the local music scene. Nash signed all four to an exclusive publishing contract with Cayman Music for J$50 a week.
In 1967, Nash, Arthur Jenkins, and Sims collaborated to create a new record label, JAD Records, named after their first names Johnny, Arthur, and Danny, and recorded their albums at Federal Records in Kingston. JAD released Nash's rocksteady single "Hold Me Tight" in 1968; it became a top-five hit in both the U.S. and UK. In 1971, Nash scored another UK hit with his cover of Marley's "Stir It Up".
Nash's 1972 reggae influenced single "I Can See Clearly Now" sold over one million copies, and was awarded a gold disc by the R.I.A.A. in November 1972. "I Can See Clearly Now" reached No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 on November 4, 1972, and remained atop the chart for four weeks, and also spent the same four weeks atop the adult contemporary chart. The I Can See Clearly Now album includes four original Marley compositions published by JAD: "Guava Jelly", "Comma Comma", "You Poured Sugar On Me" and the follow-up hit "Stir It Up". "There Are More Questions Than Answers" was a third hit single taken from the album.
Nash was also active as a composer in the Swedish romance Vill så gärna tro (1971) in which he portrayed Robert. The film soundtrack, partly instrumental reggae with strings, was co-composed by Bob Marley and arranged by Fred Jordan.
JAD Records ceased to exist in 1971, but it was revived in 1997 by American Marley specialist Roger Steffens and French musician and producer Bruno Blum for the Complete Bob Marley & the Wailers 1967–1972 ten-album series, for which several of the Nash-produced Marley and Tosh tracks were mixed or remixed by Blum for release. In the UK, his biggest hit was with the song "Tears on My Pillow" which reached number one in the UK Singles Chart in July 1975 for one week.
After a cover of Sam Cooke's "Wonderful World" in 1976 and "Let's Go Dancing" in 1979, for many years Nash seemed to have dropped out of sight, with the exception of a brief resurgence in the mid-1980s with the álbum Here Again (1986), which was preceded by the minor UK hit, "Rock Me Baby." Younger audiences were introduced to Nash's music with the appearance of Jimmy Cliff's cover of "I Can See Clearly Now" in Disney's 1993 hit film Cool Runnings. In May 2006, Nash was singing again at SugarHill Recording Studios and at Tierra Studios in his native Houston. Working with SugarHill chief engineer Andy Bradley and Tierra Studios' grammy-winning Randy Miller, he began the work of transferring analog tapes of his songs from the 1970s and 1980s to Pro Tools digital format.
On June 25, 2019, The New York Times Magazine listed Johnny Nash among hundreds of artists whose material was reportedly destroyed in the 2008 Universal fire.
The voice of love will call to you
The voice of love will call to you
You can be sure that she's sincere
If you hear the voice of love
When someone looks at you
And vows that she'll be true
If you're uncertain,
Take her in your arms and

Listen for the voice of love

The voice of love will call to you
The voice of love will call to you
You can be sure that she's sincere
If you hear the voice of love
When someone looks at you
And vows that she'll be true
If you're uncertain,
Take her in your arms and

Sweet is her tender sigh
But sighs very often lie.
Though she might thrill you
Don't give up your heart
Until you'll hear the voice of love.

The voice of love will call to you
The voice of love will call to you
You can be sure that she's sincere
If you hear the voice of love
When someone looks at you
And vows that she'll be true
If you're uncertain,
Take her in your arms and.
