Human Sadness
"Human Sadness" is the debut single by American rock band Julian Casablancas + The Voidz. It was released on September 2, 2014 via Casablancas' indie record label Cult Records and is from their debut album ''Tyranny (Julian Casablancas + The Voidz album), Tyranny''. The song is nearly eleven minutes long. Origin and composition Drummer Alex Carapetis brought a sample of Mozart's Requiem (Mozart), Requiem in D Minor to lead singer Julian Casablancas attention, which was then used as a starting point. The lyrics of the song, "Put money in my hand and I will do the things you want me to," allude to their album's themes of greed and corruption, while the rest of the song examines the lead singer's relationship with his estranged father, John Casablancas, who died in 2013 from cancer. Reception "Human Sadness" has been described very positively by critics, some describing it as "a structure-less beast that features everything from jarring noise and warped, processed vocals to bombas ...

Requiem (Mozart)
The Requiem in D minor, K. 626, is a requiem mass by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791). Mozart composed part of the Requiem in Vienna in late 1791, but it was unfinished at his death on 5 December the same year. A completed version dated 1792 by Franz Xaver Süssmayr was delivered to Count Franz von Walsegg, who commissioned the piece for a requiem service on 14 February 1792 to commemorate the first anniversary of the death of his wife Anna at the age of 20 on 14 February 1791. The autograph manuscript shows the finished and orchestrated Introit in Mozart's hand, and detailed drafts of the Kyrie and the sequence Dies irae as far as the first eight bars of the Lacrymosa movement, and the Offertory. It cannot be shown to what extent Süssmayr may have depended on now lost "scraps of paper" for the remainder; he later claimed the Sanctus and Benedictus and the Agnus Dei as his own. Walsegg probably intended to pass the Requiem off as his own composition, as he is ... [...More Info...]       [...Related Items...]     OR:     [Wikipedia]   [Google]   [Baidu]   |

Songs Written By Julian Casablancas
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers ...

The Age Of Adz
''The Age of Adz'' ( ) is the sixth studio album by American singer/songwriter Sufjan Stevens, released on October 12, 2010 by Asthmatic Kitty. It was Stevens' first song-based full-length album in five years, since the release of ''Illinois'' in 2005. The album features heavy use of electronics augmented by orchestration and takes inspiration from the apocalyptic artwork of schizophrenic artist Royal Robertson. Stevens' use of electronics marked a radical departure from much of his previous work—most notably from ''Seven Swans'' and ''Michigan''. Unlike ''Illinois'', the lyrics do not explore events, characters or setting, but deal instead with themes and emotions on a personal level. Critics praised the intimacy of the album, but many were divided over the change in style that Stevens had taken. Nonetheless, it appeared on several "best of 2010" lists—including those of ''Paste'', ''The New York Times'' and MTV. Commercially, the album gave Stevens his career's best first-we ...
