Abc ~ That Was Then But This Is Now


Why make the past your sacred cow? I guess you've changed, you've changed and how Yeah, yeah, yeah Fruit's grown rotten on the bough Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough Yeah, yeah, yeah That was then but this is now That was then but this is now More sacrifices than an aztec priest Standing here straining at that leash All fall down Can't complain, musn't grumble Help yourself to another peace of apple crumble And consequently: Hearts of oak are charged and blistered Russians should be baby-sitted Americans enlisted That was then but this is now That was then but this is now That was then but this is now more free lyrics

Why make the past your sacred cow?

I guess you've changed, you've changed and how

Yeah, yeah, yeah

Fruit's grown rotten on the bough

Reap what you sow, with a counterfeit plough

Yeah, yeah, yeah

That was then but this is now

That was then but this is now

More sacrifices than an aztec priest

Standing here straining at that leash

All fall down

Can't complain, musn't grumble

Help yourself to another peace of apple crumble

And consequently:

Hearts of oak are charged and blistered

Russians should be baby-sitted

Americans enlisted

That was then but this is now

That was then but this is now

That was then but this is now

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.
