A hill is a landform that extends above the surrounding terrain. Hills often have a distinct summit, although in areas with scarp/dip topography a hill may refer to a particular section of flat terrain without a massive summit (e.g. Box Hill, Surrey).
The distinction between a hill and a mountain is unclear and largely subjective, but a hill is generally somewhat lower and less steep than a mountain. In the United Kingdom geographers historically regarded mountains as hills greater than 1,000 feet (300 m) above sea level, which formed the basis of the plot of the 1995 film The Englishman Who Went Up a Hill But Came Down a Mountain. In contrast, hillwalkers have tended to regard mountains as peaks 2,000 feet (610 m) above sea level: the Oxford English Dictionary also suggests a limit of 2,000 feet (610 m). This has led to Cavanal Hill in Poteau, Oklahoma, receive billing as the "World's Tallest Hill" due to its height of 1,999 feet (609 m). Mountains in Scotland are frequently referred to as "hills" no matter what their height, as reflected in names such as the Cuillin Hills and the Torridon Hills. In Wales, the distinction is more a term of land use and appearance and has nothing to do with height.
Lauryn Noelle Hill (born May 26, 1975) is an American singer-songwriter, rapper, record producer, and actress.
Early in her career, she established her reputation as a member of the Fugees. In 1998, she launched her solo career with the release of the commercially successful and critically acclaimed album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill. The recording earned Hill 5 Grammy Awards, including the coveted Album of the Year and Best New Artist.
Following the success of her debut album, Hill largely dropped out of public view, in part due to her displeasure with fame and the music industry. After a four-year hiatus, she released MTV Unplugged No. 2.0, a live recording of "deeply personal songs" performed mostly solo with an acoustic guitar. In more recent years, she has recorded songs for soundtracks and mixtapes, as well as performing live at several music festivals. Hill has 6 children, five of whom are with Rohan Marley, one of reggae musician Bob Marley's sons.
Lauryn Hill was born in South Orange, New Jersey of Haitian and African-American descent,[citation needed] the second of two children born to high school English teacher Valerie Hill and computer programmer Mal Hill. As a child, Hill listened to her parents' Motown 1960s soul records. Music was a central part of the Hill home. Mal Hill sang at weddings, Valerie played the piano, and Lauryn's older brother Malaney played the saxophone, guitar, drums, harmonica, and piano. In 1988, Hill appeared as an Amateur Night contestant on It's Showtime at the Apollo. She sang her own version of Smokey Robinson's song "Who's Lovin' You?", where she was booed tremendously, but persevered and ended up with audience applause.
Faith Hill (born Audrey Faith Perry; September 21, 1967) is an American country singer. She is known both for her commercial success and her marriage to fellow country star Tim McGraw. Hill has sold more than 40 million records worldwide and accumulated eight number-one singles and three number-one albums on the U.S. Country charts.
Hill has been honored by the Grammy Awards, the Academy of Country Music, the Country Music Association, the American Music Awards and the People's Choice Awards. Her Soul2Soul II Tour 2006 with McGraw became the highest-grossing country tour of all time. In 2001, she was named one of the "30 Most Powerful Women in America" by Ladies Home Journal. In 2008, Hill released her first Christmas album, titled Joy to the World. In 2009 Billboard named her as the #1 Adult Contemporary artist of the decade 2000-2009. Hill was ranked the 39th best artist of the 2000-10 decade by Billboard.
Hill was born in Ridgeland, Mississippi, north of Jackson, Mississippi. She was adopted as an infant, and named Audrey Faith Perry. She was raised in the nearby town of Star, 25 miles outside of Jackson, Mississippi. Her adoptive parents raised their two biological sons along with Hill in a devout Christian environment.
Cypress Hill is an American hip hop group from South Gate, California. Cypress Hill was the first Cuban-American/Latino hip hop group to have platinum and multi-platinum albums, selling over 18 million albums worldwide. It is one of the most well-known groups in West Coast rap and was critically acclaimed for their first two groundbreaking albums.
Senen Reyes (also known as Sen Dog) and Ulpiano Sergio Reyes (also known as Mellow Man Ace) are brothers who initially lived in South Gate, California. In 1971, their family had immigrated to the United States, settling in the Los Angeles neighborhood of South Gate. In 1988, the two brothers teamed up with Lawrence Muggerud (also known as DJ Muggs) and Louis Freese (also known as B-Real) to form a hip-hop group named DVX (Devastating Vocal Excellence). The band soon lost Mellow Man Ace to a solo career, and changed their name to Cypress Hill, after a street in South Gate.
After recording a demo in 1989, Cypress Hill signed a record deal with the major label, Columbia Records. Their self-titled first album was released in August 1991. The lead single was the double A-side "The Phuncky Feel One"/"How I Could Just Kill a Man" which received heavy airplay on urban and college radio. The other two singles released from the album were "Hand on the Pump" and "Latin Lingo", the latter of which combined English and Spanish lyrics. The success of these singles led to the album selling two million copies in the US alone. The group made their first appearance at Lollapalooza on the side stage in 1992.

Archie: Oh, cheer up, old man! What's gotten into you?::Maurice Hall: Would you believe - it's my birthday.
Maurice Hall: England for me!
Lasker-Jones: England has always been disinclined to accept human nature.
Maurice Hall: I'm an unspeakable of the Oscar Wilde sort.
Clive Durham: Maurice, I hope nothing is wrong?::Maurice Hall: Pretty well everything. You would think so.::Clive Durham: Very well, I'm at your service. My advice there is to sleep here tonight and ask Anne. Where a woman is in question, it's always better to ask another woman.::Maurice Hall: I'm not here to see Anne. [pauses] I'm in love with Alec Scudder.::Clive Durham: What a grotesque announcement.::Maurice Hall: [ironically] Most grotesque. But I felt I should tell you.::Clive Durham: Maurice, Maurice, we did everything we could when you and I clashed out the subject.::Maurice Hall: When you brought yourself to kiss my hand.::Clive Durham: Don't allude to that! Come in here. [lowers his voice] I am more sorry for you than I can possibly say and I do, do beg you to resist to return on this obsession.::Maurice Hall: I don't need advice. I'm flesh and blood Clive, if you'll condescend to such low things. I've shared with Alec.::Clive Durham: Shared what?::Maurice Hall: Everything. Alec slept with me in the Russet Room when you and Anne were away.::Clive Durham: [turns away from him] Oh God.::Maurice Hall: Also in town.::Clive Durham: The sole excuse for a relationship between two men is that it remains purely platonic. Surely you agree to that.::Maurice Hall: I don't know. I've come to tell you what I did.::Clive Durham: Well, Alec Scudder is in point of fact no longer in my service. In fact, he is no longer in England. He sailed for Buenos Aires this very day.::Maurice Hall: He didn't. He sacrificed his career for my sake. Without a guarantee. I don't know if that's platonic or not but it's what he did.::Clive Durham: missed his boat? Maurice, you're going mad! May I ask if you intend...::Maurice Hall: [interrupts him] No, you may not ask. I told you everything up to this minute, not a word beyond.
Lasker-Jones: You should not resist me. You're resisting me.::Maurice Hall: Damnit, I'm not!
Alec Scudder: Was you calling for me, Sir? I know, Sir. It's all right. I know, Sir.
Alec Scudder: Tomorrow's Thursday. Friday's packing. Saturday's Southampton, so it's goodbye, Old England.::Maurice Hall: You mean that you and I shan't meet again after now?::Alec Scudder: That's right, you've got it quite correct.::Maurice Hall: Stay with me.::Alec Scudder: Stay? Miss my boat? You daft? Of all the bloody rubbish. Order me about again, you would.::Maurice Hall: It's a chance in a thousand we met. You know it. Why don't you stay?::Alec Scudder: Stay? With you? How? And where? With your Ma? Oh yeah. What would she say if she saw me? All rough and ugly the way I am. My people wouldn't take to you one bit. I don't blame them, either. And how would you run your job, I'd like to know?::Maurice Hall: I shall chuck it.::Alec Scudder: Your job in the City? What gives you money and position? You talk like a man who's never had to earn his living.::Maurice Hall: You can do anything. Once you know what it is. We can live without money, without people. We can live without position. We're not fools. We're both strong. There'd be some place we could go.::Alec Scudder: Wouldn't work, Maurice. Be the ruin of [pauses; gestures with both hands towards crotch or balls] *us both*. Can't you see?
Alec Scudder: Now, we shan't never be parted. It's finished.
Maurice Hall: Alec, did you dream you had a friend? Someone to last your whole life?
Plot
Marshal W.T. O'Niel is assigned to a mining colony on Io, one of Jupiter's moons. During his tenure miners are dying - usually violently. When the marshal investigates he discovers the one thing all the deaths have in common is a lethal amphetamine-type drug, which allows the miners to work continuously for days at a time until they become "burned out" and expire. O'Niel follows the trail of the dealers, which leads to the man overseeing the colony. Now O'Niel must watch his back at every turn, as those who seek to protect their income begin targeting him...

Security Sergeant Montone: Nelson, we're talking about nuclear detonators here. You don't just "lose" them and then "find" them. You lose your comb and then find it, but not detonators. Now I want to know where they were found, and who found them. You get my drift?

Marshal William T. O'Neil: Did you do autopsies?::Lazarus: No.::Marshal William T. O'Neil: Why not?::Lazarus: In the first place, the company wanted the bodies shipped out as quickly as possible. In the second place, when a person exposes themselves to zero-pressure atmosphere, there isn't a whole lot left to inspect. In the third place, you're becoming a nuisance.::Marshal William T. O'Neil: [blocking her path] Yes, I know. I'd like a report of all these incidents that have happened in last six months. I'd like it really soon. Or I might just kick your nasty ass all over this room. That's a marshal joke.
Lazarus: Such a smart piece of equipment, and a wreck like me trying to run it.
Lazarus: You know, you haven't your medical all-star here. Company doctors are like ship's doctors. Most are just one shuttle flight ahead of a malpractice suit.
Lazarus: Your wife is one stupid lady. You wanna go and get drunk?::Marshal William T. O'Neil: Yes...::Lazarus: At least you have SOME sense left.

I hold my head up, I
I look to the sky
Is there a heaven?
Is this my life?
And I wonder where I'm going
I wonder if it's right
What's the point of knowing
If it's all a big surprise?
Bridge:
I wish, I might
I read the signs
Make the most of time
Chorus:
Stay in the middle
Don't get pushed to the side
Every chance that's worth taking
Is a chance worth the fight
Stay in the middle
And take it in stride
Don't let it go by
Closed door's the question
And the answer is the key
To what we long for
To what we want to be
And it's not about the winning
It's not about the prize
It's finding out the meaning
Of the laughter and the cries
Bridge
Chorus
Don't let it go by
When it's in your hands
The chances you take
Lead to where you now stand
what was the reason?
didn't need one
like instinct born into a trade
not by choice but for a purpose
push the rock move the stone
Forever the hill your home
So, have you come to resurrect me
or have you come to crucify
step aside or get behind me
i wish someone would get behind me
And the hill so very high
does not give comfort
And the sweat upon your brow
will go unnoticed
You see there will be
those who come and stand
Come and stand stand in the way
they can't believe that a stone can be moved
So they laugh when you are still
they're waiting for that hill
to swallow you and spit you out
Another casualty of art
whose only fault was being born
Born between the rock and the stone
forever the hill your home
I was born to move a mountain
I will die before I fade away
I always thought that I was chosen
King of the hill, King of the hill
And when the light is dim
who will stand by my side
Crawling on bloody knees
who will believe in me
Who will stand by me
who will walk with me
who will fly with me?
I was born to move a mountain
