"The Man" is a slang phrase that may refer to the government or to some other authority in a position of power. In addition to this derogatory connotation, it may also serve as a term of respect and praise.

The phrase "the Man is keeping me down" is commonly used to describe oppression. The phrase "stick it to the Man" encourages resistance to authority, and essentially means "fight back" or "resist", either openly or via sabotage.^[1]

History[link]

The earliest recorded use^{[citation needed]} of the term "the Man" in the American sense dates back to a letter written by a young Alexander Hamilton in September 1772, when he was 15. In a letter to his father James Hamilton, published in the Royal Dutch-American Gazette, he described the response of the Dutch governor of St. Croix to a hurricane that raked that island on August 31, 1772. "Our General has issued several very salutary and humane regulations and both in his publick and private measures, has shewn himself the Man." ^{[2][dubious – discuss]} In the Southern U.S. states, the phrase came to be applied to any man or any group in a position of authority, or to authority in the abstract. From about the 1950s the phrase was also an underworld code word for police, the warden of a prison or other law enforcement or penal authorities.

It was also used as a term for a drug dealer in the 1950s and 1960s and can be seen in such media as Curtis Mayfield's "No Thing On Me", William Burroughs's novel Naked Lunch, and in the Velvet Underground song "I'm Waiting for the Man", in which Lou Reed sings about going to Uptown Manhattan, specifically Lexington Avenue and 125th Street, to buy heroin.

The use of this term was expanded to counterculture groups and their battles against authority, such as the Yippies, which, according to a May 19, 1969 article in U.S. News and World Report, had the "avowed aim ... to destroy 'The Man', their term for the present system of government". The term eventually found its way into humorous usage, such as in a December 1979 motorcycle ad from the magazine Easyriders which featured the tagline, "California residents: Add 6% sales tax for The Man."

In present day, the phrase has been popularized in commercials and cinema, featuring particularly prominently as a recurring motif in the 2003 film School of Rock.^[3][4][5][6]

Use as praise[link]

The term has also been used as an approbation or form of praise. This may refer to the recipient's status as the leader or authority within a particular context, or it might be assumed to be a shortened form of a phrase like "He is the man (who is in charge)." One example of this usage dates to 1879 when Otto von Bismarck commented, referring to Benjamin Disraeli's pre-eminent position at the Congress of Berlin, "The old Jew, he is the man."^{[7][dubious – discuss]}

In more modern usage, it can be a superlative compliment ("you da man!") indicating that the subject is currently standing out amongst his peers even though they have no special designation or rank, such as a basketball player who is performing better than the other players on the court. It can also be used as a genuine compliment with an implied, slightly exaggerated or sarcastic tone, usually indicating that the person has indeed impressed the speaker but by doing something relatively trivial.

Miwa Watabiki (綿引美和, Watabiki Miwa^?) (born January 13, 1968), better known by her stage name Chara, is a Japanese singer-songwriter, actress and video jockey. She debuted in 1991 with the single Heaven. She is most well known for her song "Swallowtail Butterfly (Ai no Uta)", the theme song for the 1996 Shunji Iwai film Swallowtail Butterfly (in which she starred), her 1997 hit single "Yasashii Kimochi", and her collaboration with Judy and Mary vocalist Yuki, "Ai no Hi Mittsu Orange".^[3] Chara later formed a band with Yuki, called Mean Machine. She is known for her unique whisper voice vocal technique while singing.^[4]

Early life[link]

Chara grew up in Kawaguchi, Saitama. She started learning the piano from age four, and starting composing songs in elementary school.^[5] In her first year of elementary school, she performed a song she had written, "Sayonara" (サヨナラ, Goodbye^?), at a school piano recital.^[6]

She originally received her nickname Chara in junior high. Her nickname started as Arabiki (あらびき^?), a type of sausage^[7] that rhymes with her maiden name, Watabiki. This was later changed to Charabiki, adding in charachara (ちゃらちゃら^?) (an onomatopoeic word for someone who doesn't stop talking),^[8] before settling on Chara (after a teacher called her this).^[9] She was so well known by this name that not even some of her friends knew her real name.^[6] She continues to use this name as she believes it brings out the inner child in her.^[10]

After finishing high school, Chara went to Tokyo to a vocational school, majoring in music specialising in piano. However, she dropped out one year into her two year degree.^[11]

From 1984 onwards, she worked as a keyboardist in several different unsigned bands.^[6] During this time, she found part-time work as a roller-skating waitress.^[12] In 1988, to get a chance to sing her own compositions, she decided to become a band vocalist instead.^[13] Her first live performance was at the Shinjuku Ruido live house in 1990.^[12]

Career[link]

(1991–1995) Early releases[link]

Chara sent a demo tape to Sony Music in 1990,^[6] which caught the attention of Masahiro Ohara^{[citation needed]} and landed her a deal with Epic Records Japan^[14] She recorded her debut album in early 1991 in Tokyo and London,^[6] and debuted in September with a performance at the Shibuya Club Quattro and the release of her debut single Heaven. In October, Chara became a personality on the ANN music show Video Jam, ^[6] and later in November released her debut album Sweet.^[5] The album was not very successful, only reaching #64 on Oricon's album charts.^[15]

Chara's career gained more momentum after her first tour, Chara Live "Sweet" in May 1992. She became a radio personality for the FM Yokohama, with her own radio show Yokohama Chara Machi 8-4-7 (横浜チャラ町8-4-7^?), and her second album, Soul Kiss, won the 1992 Japan Record Award for best rock/pop album from a new artist.^[16] The album reached #14 on the album charts.^[17]

In 1993, she starred in many different commercials (or had her songs featured in them), including commercials for Suntory, Shiseido, Marui and Snow Brand ice creams.^[6] Her single "Mujintō ni Watashi o Motte Itte..." (無人島に私をもっていって・・・, Take Me to a Deserted Island...^?), the song used in the Shiseido campaign, was her first top 100 charting single, reaching #66.^[18] The resulting album, Violet Blue, debuted at #4 on the charts.^[19] Her 1994 album, Happy Toy, riding on the success of her first top 50 single "Atashi Nande Dakishimetain darou?" (あたしなんで抱きしめたいんだろう?, Why Do I Wanna Hug Him?^?), also debuting at #4.^[20]

In spring 1994, she filmed the Shunji Iwai film Picnic, in which she played a mental patient.^[21] The film would not be released for another two years. She starred aside Tadanobu Asano, whom she married in 1995.^[22] Chara took a short break from music, releasing Chara the Best Baby Baby Baby XXX and giving birth to her first child, a girl named Sumire (菫^?).^[6]

(1996–2001) Mainstream success, acting[link]

In February 1996, Chara began filming her second film for Iwai, titled Swallowtail Butterfly.^[6] She played Glico (グリコ^?), a slum prostitute with musical aspirations. Chara recorded the soundtrack for the movie, collaborating with Mr. Children music producer Takeshi Kobayashi to create a Beatles-esque sound.^[23] The music was released under the name Yen Town Band, the name of the band Glico forms in the film.

Before the movie's release, the theme song "Swallowtail Butterfly (Ai no Uta)" was released, along with Chara's first film with Iwai, Picnic, finding a proper cinema release. The film was a massive hit,^[5] propelling Chara to stardom. Both the concept album, Montage, and the theme song reached #1 on Oricon charts.^[24][25] Her performance awarded her a Japan Academy Prize for Outstanding Performance by an Actress in a Leading Role nomination.^[6] The film won the Most Popular Film award.

Chara's fame soared, as shown by her next album Junior Sweet. The main single from the album, "Yasashii Kimochi" (the Shiseido 'Tessera J' CM song), was a big hit, selling over 520,000 copies^[26] and became her second biggest hit after Swallowtail Butterfly (Ai no Uta).^[3] The album was certified by the RIAJ as selling over 1,000,000 copies.^[27]

Her 1999 album, Strange Fruits, saw some success, debuting at #3^[28] and selling over 300,000 copies.^[26] Chara teamed up with Judy and Mary vocalist Yuki to release a special single called "Ai no Hi Mittsu Orange". This song is Chara's third biggest hit,^[3] selling over 230,000 copies.^[26]

In 2000, Chara released her second best-of collection, Caramel Milk: The Best of Chara, and 2001 released her 8th album, Madrigal. Madrigal featured two tracks co-written with American guitarist James Iha.^[29]

(2001–2005) Mean Machine[link]

In late 2001, Chara released music as the drummer of the twin-drum all-girl rock band, Mean Machine, alongside Yuki, Swallowtail actress Ayumi Ito, 1980s musician Mayumi Chiwaki and former funk/rock band Jagatara dancer Yukarie.^[1] The band was conceived in 1998, when Chiwaki mentioned to Chara that she thought it would be good to start up a girls rock band. One of the tenants of the band was that all members would have to do something they'd never tried before, landing Chara on drums.^[30] The band first practiced in 1999, and continued to sporadically practice throughout 2000, despite different members' schedules.^[1]

In 2001, the band debuted with the song "Sūhā" (スーハー^?), which was written by Chara during her second pregnancy, inspired by the breathing sounds of the Lamaze technique.^[31] Soon after, the band released their debut album Cream.

In 2003, Chara released her 9th solo album, Yoake Mae, and in 2004 released an album of re-recordings of songs from her early albums, A Scenery Like Me. This heralded the end of Chara's Sony contract. Chara self-released her music after this point, recording songs from her own home and self-producing her work.^[32] These recordings resulted in a limited 2,000 copy album, Something Blue, and a digital single Hikari no Niwa (光の庭, Garden of Light^?) (used as the theme song for the Japanese release of the movie March of the Penguins).^[33]

During this period, Chara created several bands. One, Cold Sugar was a collaboration with Arai Akino.^[32]

(2006–2011) Universal[link]

Chara re-debuted as a major label artist in 2006, with the release of the single "Sekai". Her single "Fantasy" (used as the Kanebo T'estimo eye-makeup range, featuring Chara in the commercials) was a minor hit, reaching #13 on Oricon charts.^[34] It was written in collaboration with Seiji Kameda, producer for artists such as Do As Infinity and bassist for the band Tokyo Jihen. The following album, Union, also fared well. It reached the top 5 in Oricon's album charts,^[35] and outsold her former two Sony released albums.^[36]

On the back of Chara's returned success, Sony released the compilation album, Sugar Hunter: The Best Love Songs of Chara.

Chara's Universal singles have fared better on digital charts. "Trophy", a single from Chara's second Universal album Honey, did well digitally,^{[citation needed]} despite the physical release only reaching #37.^[37]

(2011-2012) Indies [link]

After the end of her contract with Universal, Chara released a new mini-album, Utakata, on November 2011 under BounDEE Inc. (a subsidiary of Space Shower Networks, the owners of Space Shower TV).

(2012-Present) Ki/oon [link]

Last December 14, 2011, Chara announced in a concert at Shibuya-AX her transfer to Ki/oon Records, an imprint of Sony Music Japan. She will join Ki/oon's 20th anniversary concert tour this April 2012.^[38]

Personal life[link]

In 1994, Chara married actor Tadanobu Asano. She met Asano on the set of the 1994 film Picnic, in which they were both starring actors. Chara gave birth to a daughter, Sumire (菫^?), on July 4, 1995.^[6] Chara had a second child with Asano, giving birth to a son on December 19, 1999, and naming him Himi (緋美^?).^[6]

The pair attended the 2008 80th Academy Awards in Los Angeles, due to the film Mongol (starring Asano) being nominated for the best foreign film category after the film was submitted as the Kazakhstan entry.

On July 25, 2009, Chara announced her amicable divorce from husband Asano Tadanobu, after fourteen years of marriage.^[39]

Chara has two tattoos: a blue bird on her back, and a sumire flower (菫, Fuji Dawn Viola^?) on her neck.^[40]

Chara's children feature in her music. Sumire features on the cover of her album Honey (which also has a track named after her). Both of her children appear in the music video for "Kataomoi" (片想い, Unrequited Love^?).^[41]

Alex Band (born Alexander Max Band, June 8, 1981, Los Angeles, California) is an American musician and singer-songwriter, best known for his work in his former band The Calling and their signature song "Wherever You Will Go", which peaked at #3 on the Top 40 in 2001.^[1]

Along with bandmate and fellow songwriter Aaron Kamin as part of The Calling, the pair achieved success with the release of their two studio albums; Camino Palmero (2001) and Two (2004). They also achieved top 40 chartings with singles "Adrienne", "Our Lives", and "Things Will Go My Way". As a solo artist he is well known for providing the vocals on the top 10 hit, "Why Don't You & I" with Carlos Santana in 2004. In 2008 he created his own record label, AMB Records and released a 5 song EP entitled, Alex Band EP.^[2] Band later released his debut full-length album, We've All Been There in June 2010. He currently resides in Los Angeles.^[3]

Early life[link]

Alex Band was born into an entertainment family. His mother is Meda Band, and his father Charles Band is a well known horror film director. His grandfather Albert Band was also another well known director. Band's father is Jewish and his mother is Christian.^[4] Both his parents were raised in Italy and they own a castle in Giove, Umbria.^[5] Band explores spiritual themes in several of his songs though claims to be of no particular faith himself. Of the song "Please" Band said, "...I grew up with a Jewish Father who didn't practice and a Christian Mother whose only tie to Jesus was celebrating Christmas. Needless to say I had to find my own religion. And in this song I'm asking God what that should be...what should I believe? In a world so full of different religions and so many people fighting over whose belief is the correct one, it frustrates me to think that they all really boil down to the same thing."^[4]

At a young age Band's parents divorced and his father remarried. He grew up with two of his half brothers Harlan and Zalman, and his sister Taryn. After his parents divorce his mother moved to Germany where she remarried and still resides. Band was about 8 at the time.^[6] She had 3 sons after her move, who Band eventually met when he toured Germany. The single "Could It Be Any Harder" explains some of his feelings towards his mother's move.^[4]

Growing up Alex made small appearances in his father's films. He grew up on Camino Palmero street which would later inspire his first album of the same name. He began playing guitar and song writing at the age of 8.^[7]

Musically, Alex was influenced by Pearl Jam, Bon Jovi, Live, Train, and U2.^[8]

He soon formed his first band with friend and filmmaker, Jethro Rothe-Kushel, called "Maybe Solitude". Rothe-Kushel also directed his first music video for a song called "Dormant Prayer". Several bands followed including one named "Generation Gap" that consisted of him, Aaron Kamin, a musician he met when Kamin began dating his sister, and a few much older musicians. The band has a brief cameo in Coyote Ugly. At the age of 14 he had a kokopelli tattooed on his wrist. This would later become a symbol for The Calling.^[7]

Career[link]

The Calling[link]

At the age of 15 Alex signed with RCA Records with the band he had created with Kamin now named The Calling. At this time he dropped out of school though he later received a diploma through home schooling.^[7]

The Calling released their first single "Wherever You Will Go" to much acclaim. The song soon reached #1 on the Billboard Hot AC charts for 27 weeks and peaked at #3 on the Hot 100 charts.^[9] The band's first album Camino Palmero soon followed peaking at #36 on the Billboard Sales charts and eventually went Platinum.^[10]

The band's next singles, "Adrienne" and "Could It Be Any Harder" soon followed charting in the AC top 40. However by 2004 the second album titled, Two failed to live up to expectations charting at #54 on Billboard Top 200.^[11] The album suffered from a lack of label support though the singles fared slightly better. The first single, "Our Lives" was featured in the 2004 Olympics ceremony, and charted at #34 in the Billboard top 40.^[12] A final single, "Anything" performed decently with little promotion, charting at #23 in the Adult Top 40.^[12]

After the lack of label support with "Two", the band announced a hiatus. On June 4, 2005 they performed their last concert to date in Temecula, CA.^[10]

The Calling has sold over 6 million record worldwide.

Their song "Wherever You Will Go" was named the #1 song of the decade on the Adult Pop Charts by Billboard magazine.

Songwriting[link]

During and after his time in The Calling, Band and Kamin co-wrote all of the band's songs. They also wrote songs for several other artists as well as for several movie soundtracks, most of which Band would perform on. One of the first such tracks was the single, "For You" which appeared on the Daredevil soundtrack. The OST peaked at #9 on the Billboard Top 200.^[13]

A cover of "Keep Your Hands to Yourself" was recorded for the movie Sweet Home Alabama. Band recorded a song "Take Hold of Me" for use in his wife's movie Fish Without a Bicycle in which he has a small part.^[14] He also Appeared on the Bratz: Motion Picture Soundtrack.

Solo career[link]

Band's solo career started long before the hiatus of The Calling. He was personally chosen by Chad Kroeger to perform on the Carlos Santana single "Why Don't You & I" in 2003. Originally, Kroeger wrote and sang on "Why Don't You & I" for Santana's Shaman. However, when Arista Records decided to release the song as a single, Kroeger's record label refused permission, citing concerns that Kroeger appearing on a "high-profile single" that could conflict with his own newly released comeback album.^[15][16][17]

Band's version became extremely successful charting at #3 on the Billboard Top 40, and #8 on the Billboard Top 100. It was also recently named the #5 song of the decade on the Adult Pop charts by Billboard. It reached #1 on the AC charts and continues to be played on AC stations to this day. Band's version appears on Santana's special release album, Ceremony: remixes & rarities and Ultimate Santana.

Band also contributed the song "The Truth" to the soundtrack of the 2005 movie "Doll Graveyard" which was directed by his father.

In November 2005 it was announced Band had signed as a solo artist with Ron Fair as part of Geffen Records. A new album had been recorded and was said to be released in late 2007, but was delayed several times. Alex left the Geffen label in 2008.^[10]

During this time Band had a few releases. One of his songs titled, "It Doesn't Get Better Than This" for Bratz: The Movie soundtrack. Band performed and co-wrote the song, "Coming Home" which was featured in the film, The Final Season in late 2007.

In October 2007 Band performed at the first Alex Band's Donate Life Rocks charity concert for "Donate Life America" in Los Angeles, CA. The concert was taped and will air on DISH Network. Band also taped an appearance on The Real World: Hollywood which filmed at the concert. The second Alex Band Donate Life concert was held in Richmond, VA on August 21, 2008.

First music video in his solo career was again directed by lifelong friend and director / producer, Jethro Rothe-Kushel, for a song called "Only One".^[18]

Indie Label[link]

Band expressed displeasure with the continued delayed release of his debut album.^[19] On April 16, 2008 Band announced via his official fan site that he had left Geffen and created his own label called AMB Records under which the album in the US will be released. He will work with EMI for the international release.^[20] "I've been working on leaving my label for a while now, and moving to somewhere else to put this record out finally and give it the push it deserves...and I'm happy to announce that I will be putting the record out ON MY OWN! With help from good friends in the business and an amazing team, I'm putting together my own Label. This gives me the freedom to make my own decisions, to invest in myself, and to do what I want, when I want. This is the way to go these days in the music business and I am sooooooo lucky to be able to do it. There are no firm details as to when exactly the record will be released, but I am doing everything in my power to make the process as speedy as possible. I will let you all know of course as soon as I find out more."^[20]

On April 25, 2008 Band released a 5 song EP titled, "Alex Band EP". The EP contained 4 new songs in addition to the song "Coming Home". The EP is sold via his official fan site. A new version of the EP was created for his tour in Brazil. On May 13 it was announced that the track, "Only One" would be the official single, for Brazil only, with both single and video available through Band's official fan site.^[21]

The long delayed full length album has yet to be given a release date though several songs have appeared on various official sites. Two short clips of "Tonight" and "Please" appear on his official MySpace. The song "Only One" has been added as well. Other clips have leaked on his official fan site as well. Clips of the entire album can be heard on www.blackstarbracelet.com.

In addition to the album release Band has begun to tour as well. He began college area shows in April 2008, and has several shows scheduled throughout the US during the year. In June and July 2008 he completed a very successful 13 show tour of Brazil along with numerous TV and Radio appearances in Brazil.

Alex decided to go solo and created his own record label AMB Records and saw that the music industry was depleting and together with Robin Sydney created a new way to release music, on a Black Star Bracelet. Each bracelet purchased comes with a free song download. After 5 years, his new album "We've All Been There" will be releasing first on these bracelet in 2009.
