Maya Angelou (i/ˈmaɪ.ə ˈændʒəloʊ/; born Marguerite Annie Johnson; April 4, 1928 – May 28, 2014) was an American author, poet, and civil rights activist. She published seven autobiographies, three books of essays, and several books of poetry, and was credited with a list of plays, movies, and television shows spanning over 50 years. She received dozens of awards and more than 50 honorary degrees. Angelou is best known for her series of seven autobiographies, which focus on her childhood and early adult experiences. The first, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings (1969), tells of her life up to the age of 17 and brought her international recognition and acclaim.
She became a poet and writer after a series of occupations as a young adult, including fry cook, prostitute, nightclub dancer and performer, cast member of the opera Porgy and Bess, coordinator for the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and journalist in Egypt and Ghana during the decolonization of Africa. She was an actor, writer, director, and producer of plays, movies, and public television programs. In 1982, she earned the first lifetime Reynolds Professorship of American Studies at Wake Forest University in Winston-Salem, North Carolina. She was active in the Civil Rights movement, and worked with Martin Luther King, Jr. and Malcolm X. Beginning in the 1990s, she made around 80 appearances a year on the lecture circuit, something she continued into her eighties. In 1993, Angelou recited her poem "On the Pulse of Morning" (1993) at President Bill Clinton's inauguration, making her the first poet to make an inaugural recitation since Robert Frost at President John F. Kennedy's inauguration in 1961.
"I Will" is a song by the Beatles that was released on The Beatles. It was written by Paul McCartney (credited to Lennon–McCartney) and features him on lead vocal, guitar, and "vocal bass".
"I Will" was one of the songs worked on by the Beatles and their associates while in Rishikesh, India. Although the music came together fairly easily, the words were worked on in India, and remained unfinished even as recording began back in London.
This quiet song required 67 takes, and George Harrison did not play (during The Beatles sessions, the Beatles often recorded in separate studios). However, the reason for Harrison's absence from the session has never been clarified.
During take 19 of "I Will", McCartney ad-libbed an untitled and uncopyrighted song (referred to as "Can you take me back?" by author Ian MacDonald), a 28-second segment of which ended up on side 4 of the album The Beatles as what MacDonald described as “a sinister introduction to "Revolution 9"”. Also ad-libbed by McCartney was "Los Paranoias", released, together with take 1 of "I Will", in 1996 on Anthology 3.

In 1988 Maya Angelou was invited to Texas for the conference “Facing Evil”. After having “trepidations about this conference” Maya Angelou shares “what we evoke by invoking the word evil”. Later Maya Angelou would often be quoted as saying, “Courage is the most important of all the virtues, because without courage you can’t practice any other virtue consistently. You can practice any virtue erratically, but nothing consistently without courage.” Listen as Maya Angelou reads poetry her own poetry and the poem We Wear the Masks by Paul Laurence Dunbar and quotes a song written for Roberta Flack. http://mayaangelou.com/ https://www.facebook.com/MayaAngelou
Maya Angelou and some of the people who know her best sit down with journalist Felix Augustine where some of her deepest secrets are uncovered like never before. Did you know Maya Angelou sang calypso? Amazing work from Sean Johnson, George Alexander, Chandra and my number one camera operator Andrew Baxter.

I got a word, a word or two,
I'm gonna say to you.
You're drivin', drivin' me wild,
When I see you smile a smile.
There's nothing you can do or say,
That will keep me far enough way.
Chorus:
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Yeah, I'm stuck to you.
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Now I'll never get loose.
Gonna say it once more,
Before I come knockin' on you door.
I've been thinkin', thinkin' of you,
And you're stickin' to me like glue.
You got me spinnin' around and round,
And I don't know if I'll ever come down
Chorus:
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Yeah, I'm stuck to you.
Stick, stick, stick like glue,
Now I'll never get loose.
