Billy Bragg ~ Mother Of The Bride


The reverend mother went and got me a drink She came back and said to me "well what do you think?" I said "i've made myself a fool For the prettiest girl in school" How can i deal with this hurt i feel inside? I tell it to the mother of the bride I put on my suit and smile for the big day But i couldn't watch as her dad gave her away And as they solemnly said "you'll do" Her mother said "that should have been you" At the mercy of the moon The boy who spoke too soon She married him and destroyed all my hopes Of a two-up, two-down, two point five And a dish on the roof For the soaps I saw them at the hardware store He looked boring she looked bored It's nice to know that someone was on my side Best wishes to the mother of the bride more free lyrics

The reverend mother went and got me a drink
She came back and said to me "well what do you think?"
I said "i've made myself a fool
For the prettiest girl in school"

How can i deal with this hurt i feel inside?
I tell it to the mother of the bride

I put on my suit and smile for the big day
But i couldn't watch as her dad gave her away
And as they solemnly said "you'll do"
Her mother said "that should have been you"

At the mercy of the moon
The boy who spoke too soon

She married him and destroyed all my hopes
Of a two-up, two-down, two point five
And a dish on the roof
For the soaps
I saw them at the hardware store
He looked boring she looked bored

It's nice to know that someone was on my side
Best wishes to the mother of the bride

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
