TWIST AND SHOUT
THE BEATLES
SONGWRITERS: BERNS BERT & MEDLEY PHIL
COUNTRY: U.K.
ALBUM: PLEASE PLEASE ME
LABEL: EMI’S PARLOPHONE
GENRE: ROCK
YEAR: 1963

This song was written by Phil Medley and Bert Berns and originally recorded by the band The Top Notes in 1960. The covers were made by The Beatles in 1963 and by Brian Poole and the Tremeloes four months later. The interesting fact is that The Beatles and The Tremeloes were both auditioned on the same day by Decca label, but the former were rejected by the label with a note that "guitar groups are on the way out".
John Lennon had a cold on the day of recording, and it took him much effort to finish the day-long session with "Twist And Shout" being the last song to record. He said later, "That song nearly killed me. My voice wasn't the same for a long time after; every time I swallowed, it was like sandpaper."
The Beatles chose this song to open their Shea Stadium performance on the 15th of August 1965. It was the first rock concert held in a stadium.
This song was featured in the film "Ferris Bueller's Day Off" (1986). The film "Back to School", released two days later, coincidentally featured this song as well. That let the song re-enter charts reaching number 23 in Billboard Hot 100 that year.
Please Please Me is the debut studio album by the English rock band the Beatles. Produced by George Martin, it was released on EMI's Parlophone label on 22 March 1963 in the United Kingdom, following the success of the band's singles "Please Please Me" and "Love Me Do", which reached number 1 on the NME and Melody Maker charts and number 17 on the UK Singles Chart, respectively. The album topped Record Retailer's LP chart for 30 weeks, an unprecedented achievement for a pop album at that time.
Besides their already released singles, the Beatles recorded the majority of Please Please Me in one long recording session at EMI Studios on 11 February 1963; overdubs were later added by Martin to "Misery" and "Baby It's You" on 20 February. Of the album's 14 songs, eight were written by Lennon–McCartney (originally credited "McCartney–Lennon"). Rolling Stone magazine later cited these original compositions as early evidence of the Beatles' "the idea of the self-contained rock band, writing their own hits and playing their own instruments". In 2012, Please Please Me was voted 39th on Rolling Stone's list of the "500 Greatest Albums of All Time". It was voted number 622 in the third edition of Colin Larkin's All Time Top 1000 Albums(2000).

After an incident in which his girlfriend committed suicide, Green became an ordained pastor and turned to gospel music. He later returned to secular music.

LILY WAS HERE
CANDY DULFER & DAVE STEWART
SONGWRITERS: DAVID A. STEWART & BEN VERBONG
COUNTRY: DUTCH OR NETHERLANDS
ALBUM: LILY WAS HERE
LABEL: ANXIOUS
GENRE: SMOOTH JAZZ
YEAR: 1989

"Lily Was Here" is a single released in November 1989 from the David A. Stewart soundtrack of the same name for the Dutch movie De Kassière. The song reached number one in the Netherlands and became a top-twenty hit in several other European countries, Australia and the United States.
David A. Stewart invited Candy Dulfer, who had not previously released any of her material, to play the saxophone on this instrumental. The single became a major hit and stayed at the number one position for five weeks in the Netherlands. Because of this success, the single was also released in the United Kingdom, Europe and the United States where it became a hit as well, reaching number six in the UK and even rising to number 11 in the tough U.S. market. The success of this instrumental encouraged Dulfer to compose music for her own album, which she titled Saxuality.
According to Candy's father Hans Dulfer on Dutch radio, the recording was done in just one take, actually a jam session, and at that time not meant to be released. This jam session was done at the end of a day of recording for the movie De Kassière, and Dave Stewart later decided to release this as a single.
Lily Was Here(original title in Dutch: De Kassière, The Cashier) is a 1989 Dutch drama film directed by Ben Verbong. One song from the soundtrack, performed by Candy Dulfer and Dave Stewart, was later released as a single – "Lily Was Here".
I'm sorry if I seem uninterested
Oh I'm not listenin'
oh I'm indifferent
Truly I ain't got no business here
But since my friends are here
I just came to kick it
But really I would rather be at home all by myself
Not in this room with people who don't even care about my well being
I don't dance, don't ask
I don't need a boyfriend
So you can, go back, please enjoy your party
I'll be here
somewhere in the corner
Under clouds of marijuana with this boy who's hollerin'
And I can hardly hear
Over this music I don't listen to
And I don't wanna get with you
So tell my friends that I'll be over here
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
Oh oh oh I asked myself
what am I doin' here?
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
Excuse me if I seem a little unimpressed with this
An antisocial pessimist
but usually I don't mess with this
And I know you mean only the best and your
Intentions aren't to bother me, but honestly I'd rather be
Somewhere with my people, we can kick it and just listen to
Some music with a message, (Like we usually do)
And we'll discuss our big dreams, how we plan, to take over the planet
So pardon my manners, I hope you'll understand that I'll be here (Ooh)
Not there in the kitchen
With the girl who's always gossipin' about her friends
Oh tell them I'll be here
(Ooh) right next to the boy who's throwin' up
'Cause he can't take what's in his cup no more
Oh God why am I here?
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
Oh oh oh I asked myself
what am I doin' here?
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
And I can't wait 'til we can break up out of here
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here
Oh oh oh I asked myself, what am I doin' here?
Oh oh oh here, oh oh oh here.

The Ladies of Soul are a Dutch supergroup consisting of Candy Dulfer, Berget Lewis, Glennis Grace and Edsilia Rombley. Trijntje Oosterhuis, also a founding member, left in 2017 to focus on her solo-career.
The Ladies of Soul, already connected through relatives and friends, were first brought together in 2012 for a series of Whitney Houston-memorial-concerts in 2012.

In November 2013 they issued a single, I'll Carry You, as a teaser for their first two shows at Amsterdam's Ziggo Dome on 13 and 14 February 2014. These were recorded for cd- and DVD-release. Thus setting the blueprint for subsequent editions; three shows in Amsterdam plus one in Belgium at Antwerp's Lotto Arena featuring Natalia Druyts as special guest. Oosterhuis only missed the Antwerp show in 2016, and announced her departure after the 2017 leg which completely sold out. She made a guest-appearance at the 5th anniversary-shows on March 23 and 24, 2018.
