David Bonderman (born November 27, 1942) is a founding partner of TPG Capital (formerly Texas Pacific Group "TPG") and its Asian affiliate, Newbridge Capital. Bonderman is listed on the 2011 Forbes 400 list as the 209th wealthiest American with a net worth of approximately $2 billion.
Bonderman studied at the University of Washington and at Harvard Law School, graduating magna cum laude from Harvard Law School in 1966 and was a Phi Beta Kappa graduate of the University of Washington in 1963. He was also a member of the Harvard Law Review and a Sheldon Fellow. While at or shortly after his time at Harvard, he traveled to Cairo, Egypt, to study Islamic Legal Jurisprudence and Law, and became proficient in various Islamic legal cliques developing a near-native fluency in Modern Standard Arabic. Later, Bonderman developed the Bonderman Fellows program at the University of Washington providing undergraduate and graduate students with opportunities for unstructured international travel and study.
David (Hebrew: דָּוִד, דָּוִיד, Modern David Tiberian Dāwîḏ; ISO 259-3 Dawid; Strong's Daveed; beloved; Arabic: داوود or داود Dāwūd) was, according to the Hebrew Bible, the second king of the United Kingdom of Israel and, according to the Gospel of Matthew and the Gospel of Luke, an ancestor of Jesus. David is seen as a major Prophet in Islamic traditions. His life is conventionally dated to c. 1040–970 BC, his reign over Judah c. 1010–1003 BC,[citation needed] and his reign over the United Kingdom of Israel c. 1003–970 BC.[citation needed] The Books of Samuel, 1 Kings, and 1 Chronicles are the only sources of information on David, although the Tel Dan stele records "House of David", which some take as confirmation of the existence in the mid-9th century BC of a Judean royal dynasty called the "House of David".
David is very important to Jewish, Christian and Islamic doctrine and culture. In Judaism, David, or David HaMelekh, is the King of Israel, and the Jewish people. Jewish tradition maintains that a direct descendant of David will be the Messiah. In Islam, he is known as Dawud, considered to be a prophet and the king of a nation. He is depicted as a righteous king, though not without faults, as well as an acclaimed warrior, musician, and poet, traditionally credited for composing many of the psalms contained in the Book of Psalms.
William John Evans, known as Bill Evans (August 16, 1929–September 15, 1980) was an American jazz pianist. His use of impressionist harmony, inventive interpretation of traditional jazz repertoire, and trademark rhythmically independent, "singing" melodic lines influenced a generation of pianists. He is considered by some to be the most influential post-World War II jazz pianist. Evans had a distinct playing posture in which his neck would often be stooped very low, and his face parallel to the piano.
Evans is an inductee of the Down Beat Jazz Hall of Fame.
Bill Evans was born in Plainfield, New Jersey, United States, to a mother of Rusyn ancestry and a father of Welsh descent. He received his first musical training at his mother's church. Evans' mother was an amateur pianist with an interest in modern classical composers, and Evans began classical piano lessons at age six. He also became a proficient flautist by age 13 and could play the violin.
At age 12, Evans filled in for his older brother Harry in Buddy Valentino's band. At this age he was able to interpret classical music, but he couldn't improvise. In the beginning, he played exactly what was written in the sheet, but soon started trying to improvise, while learning about harmonies in the songs and how to alter them. Meanwhile, he was playing dance music (and jazz) at home, in a recording studio he built in his family's basement.. In the late 1940s, Evans played boogie woogie in various New Jersey clubs. He attended Southeastern Louisiana University on a music scholarship, and in 1950 performed Beethoven's Third Piano Concerto on his senior recital there, graduating with a degree in piano performance and teaching. He was also among the founding members of SLU's Delta Omega Chapter of Phi Mu Alpha Sinfonia, and played quarterback for the fraternity's football team, helping them win the school's 1949 intramural tournament.
Pardon me sir, I don't know who you are.
But I think I see something in your eyes
Though I could be wrong.
Winter is here and all the roses lie deep beneath the
snow
That's where lovers go to hide from pain and sorrow.
Never for sure when your luck will turn
Waiting out that snowy day
Hope for a cure that someday you'll learn
Why love keeps on going when there's no one there.
Pardon me sir, I think it's up from here.
Take this one from me, one day you'll feel free to
Fly away wherever you want to.
Never can tell where the dawn will break
When you find your shoulder to cry on.
After a spell you won't feel the ache
And you'll forget the corner you've been living in so
long.
You'll breathe a sigh and see it's time to move along
Just a little stronger when the winter's gone.
It isn't easy to show you what you mean to me
I'm not that kind with all the moves
The way I'm feeling goes beyond what you can see
I'm crazy 'bout you, crazy 'bout you
I haven't tried to impress you by the things I do
That isn't really how I am, hmmm...
I'd rather let my dreams be opened up to you
So you'll understand, you'll understand
Take a look inside my heart and you'll see
I have so much love to give beLieve in me
Take a Look inside my heart share my Love
Take a Look in my heart... yeah...
Nobody ever is perfect even if they try
There may be times I've let you down
But when I do I hope you'll turn my heart around
By reachin' inside, reachin' inside
Take a look inside my heart and you'll see
I have so much love to give beLieve in me
Take a Look inside my heart share my Love
Take a Look in my heart...
I wanna promise you honestly I'll always care
That's what my Love has come here for
And every time I smiLe you know there's something more
I'm waiting to share, wanting to share
Take a look inside my heart and you'll see
I have so much love to give beLieve in me
Take a Look inside my heart share my Love
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night
(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love
Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you'LL think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way
(chorus...)
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
PROMISE ME A CAROUSEL
You bringin' out the child in me
U got me sharing secrets only kids know how to tell
Oh how I fell, on what I saw them playing in your eyes
I'd love to stay of half at night
With dreams we take to bed
The walks we like on Sundays
Buying homes with make believe
Let's make it last!
I'm glad we're both that growing too fast.
CHORUS
Promise me a carousel,
We can ride forever,
Circle me in innocence and love to laugh, oh
Promise me a carousel,
We can ride forever,
Together we'll keep it goin' round and round, ooh ooh
We both tried in being someone else
We traded in what's honest for sophisticated lies
That's how love dies
Before it has the time to really grows
You never finally given up your venture for success
I'd rather live on chances that on empty guarantees
that never last
I'm glad we're both not growing too fast, ooh
CHORUS:
Promise me a carousel,
We can ride forever,
Circle me in innocence and love to laugh, oh
Promise me a carousel,
So, we can ride forever,
Together we'll keep it going round and round, ooh ooh
Deep in your eyes is a promise
Love can be ours if we want it
Starting tonight ev'ry dream I ever knew
Here in your arms I'm believing
Fin'lly my life has a meaning of its own
Here in the land of loving I am home.
I was alone in the city
Searchin' for someone to find me
Cold empty nights and a million strangers' eyes
Here in your arms I'm beginning
To leave behind all the loneliness I knew
Here in the land of loving there is you.
In this simple room magic is made
Though the world seems unchanged
Leave the lights on I'm a bit afraid
This might be just a sweet dream.
Deep in the night love is growing
Though I had no way of knowing
That when I found you I found ev'rything I need
Here in your love I'll be staying
Fin'lly my life won't be living all alone
One more star falling from the heavens
Breaks my heart that she won't return
Torn apart 'cause I rolled a seven
And the walla came tumbling down
Crystal dream shatter into pieces
Dead end streets where there's nowhere to turn
all my shcemes, not a one convinces
Now she's gone forever
Bridge:
More time - that's the one thing I need
In one night - I could change her mind
Chorus:
And I'm counting on my fingers
Every single sad mistake
If I headed to tomorrow she'd stay
And I'm heading out tomorrow
For as long as it will take
Gonna find love along love's highway
One more friend saying, "What's the matter?"
Once again I avoid the truth
I pretend she'll be back here later
But she's gone forever
(Repeat Bridge & Chorus)
[Instrumental break]
(Chorus)
And I'm heading out tomorrow
For as long as it will take
Oh happiness is two kinds of ice cream
Finding your skate key, telling the time
And happiness is learning to whistle
Tying your shoe for the very first time
Happiness is playing the drum in your own school band
And happiness is walking hand in hand
And happiness is five different crayons
Knowing a secret, climbing a tree
Happiness is finding a nickel
Catching a firefly, setting it free
And happiness is being alone every now and then
And happiness is coming home again
Happiness is singing together when day is through
And happiness is those who sing with you
And happiness is morning and evening
Daytime and nighttime too
For happiness is anyone and anything at all...
Sometimes I feel I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
From the pain that you drive into the heart of me
The love we share
Seems to go nowhere
And I've lost my light
For I toss and turn I can't sleep at night
(chorus)
Once I ran to you (I ran)
Now I'll run from you
This tainted love you've given
I give you all a boy could give you
Take my tears and that's not nearly all
Oh...tainted love
Tainted love
Now I know I've got to
Run away I've got to
Get away
You don't really want IT any more from me
To make things right
You need someone to hold you tight
And you'LL think love is to pray
But I'm sorry I don't pray that way
(chorus...)
Don't touch me please
I cannot stand the way you tease
I love you though you hurt me so
Now I'm going to pack my things and go
Tainted love, tainted love (x2)
Touch me baby, tainted love (x2)
