The Best may refer to:
In music, a song is a composition for voice or voices, performed by singing. A song may be accompanied by musical instruments, or it may be unaccompanied, as in the case of a cappella songs. The lyrics (words) of songs are typically of a poetic, rhyming nature, though they may be religious verses or free prose.
A song may be for a solo singer, a duet, trio, or larger ensemble involving more voices. Songs with more than one voice to a part are considered choral works. Songs can be broadly divided into many different forms, depending on the criteria used. One division is between "art songs", "pop songs", and "folk songs". Other common methods of classification are by purpose (sacred vs secular), by style (dance, ballad, Lied, etc.), or by time of origin (Renaissance, Contemporary, etc.).
A song is a piece of music for accompanied or unaccompanied voice or voices or, "the act or art of singing," but the term is generally not used for large vocal forms including opera and oratorio. However, the term is, "often found in various figurative and transferred sense (e.g. for the lyrical second subject of a sonata...)." The noun "song" has the same etymological root as the verb "to sing" and the Oxford English Dictionary (OED) defines the word to mean "that which is sung" or "a musical composition suggestive of song." The OED also defines the word to mean "a poem" or "the musical phrases uttered by some birds, whales, and insects, typically forming a recognizable and repeated sequence and used chiefly for territorial defence or for attracting mates."
Maher Zain (Arabic: ماهر زين ; born March 16, 1981 in Tripoli, Lebanon) is a Muslim Swedish R&B singer, songwriter and music producer of Lebanese origin. His debut album Thank You Allah, an internationally successful album with strong Muslim religious influences, was released in 2009. He released his follow-up album Forgive Me on April 2, 2012.
Maher Zain and his family moved to Sweden when he was eight years old. He completed his schooling there gaining a Bachelors degree in Aeronautical Engineering. After university he entered the music industry in Sweden and linked up with RedOne, the Moroccan-born Swedish producer.
When RedOne moved to New York in 2006 Maher Zain followed soon after to continue his music industry career in the USA producing for artists such as Kat DeLuna. On a visit home to Sweden he became engaged once more with his Islamic faith and decided to move away from a career as a music producer to become a singer/songwriter of contemporary R&B music with a strong Muslim religious influence.
Woke up this morning, how I got here I haven't a clue
In my mouth there is this foul taste, such a hangover,
What the hell did I do?
I ran to the store to get a drink to quench the thirst
And the clerks began to laugh
I ran to the bathroom, looked in the mirror and
I saw what those bastards were laughing at
Last night really was a blur,
Got with the boys and drank liquor
People were dropping like bowling pins,
That's when the fun started setting in
Some lost eyebrows, some lost hair,
Some got duct-taped to a chair
Some got bold and tried to fight,
Some got tied in Christmas lights
The magic marker was running wild,
Many ended up in a dog pile
Kitty whiskers, muttons and stars,
We've got the feathers you bring the tar
Chorus:
OLA OLA OLA DRI-A, OLA OLA OLA DRI-O,
OLA OLA OLA DRI-A
This is a passout song!!!!
(Repeat Chorus)
The night progressed and so did we,
Those asleep were in for misery
Some got painted like a clown,
Some ran naked through the town
Jelly donuts in the pants, give us another table dance
Some got wild some got crazy,
Some didn't move just too lazy
Pour Nyquil in his cup,
Tonight we are gonna do him up
Looks like someone is cooking up a tasty dish,
Hey Willow how's the fish!
