What's Jazz? - Akiko (菊地晶子)[00:00:00]
Written by:akiko[00:00:00]
What's jazz[00:00:08]
Originating in america[00:00:10]
An african and european mix[00:00:14]
But then all this is known to everyone[00:00:18]
No fun to hear all that you know[00:00:21]
What's jazz[00:00:24]
You know of count basie john coltrane[00:00:26]
Louis armstrong and all those names[00:00:31]
You know they made the different styles we hear[00:00:34]
The swing be bop and dixieland[00:00:38]
But is jazz a style[00:00:41]
Or just the rhythm played[00:00:45]
And will it still be jazz[00:00:49]
Without the improvising style[00:00:53]
Is it an american thing[00:00:56]
A culture old and boring[00:01:01]
Does it have to be done[00:01:05]
The way that they've played[00:01:07]
'Cause isn't jazz supposed to[00:01:09]
Be fun and free[00:01:12]
You know[00:01:14]
I haven't studied to sing at school[00:01:16]
I don't know 'bout all the chords they use[00:01:20]
The music theory that they play is too[00:01:24]
Confusing for my simple mind[00:01:27]
You see[00:01:30]
Ella billie and anita taught me all I know[00:01:32]
That's how I sing my jazz[00:01:37]
That's not jazz[00:02:52]
Or it's a provilege[00:02:56]
We've heard them many times[00:03:00]
But don't you see it's not logic[00:03:04]
Miles davis is great to hear[00:03:07]
But try a different ear[00:03:12]
4hero jazzanova matthew herbert[00:03:16]
'Cause otherwise you're saying[00:03:20]
That jazz is dead[00:03:23]
One thing[00:03:25]
Let me explain I do love the old[00:03:27]
But I'm living in the present now[00:03:31]
To me the music jazz is our spirit[00:03:35]
Like blues and soul and also rock[00:03:38]
That's jazz[00:03:41]
That's why I sing as I sing today[00:03:43]
And I'll be singing all I feel that's jazz[00:03:47]
That's why I sing as I sing today[00:03:52]
And I'll be singing all I feel that's jazz[00:03:56]
