In mineralogy, diamond (/ˈdaɪəmənd/ or /ˈdaɪmənd/; from the ancient Greek ἀδάμας – adámas "unbreakable") is a metastable allotrope of carbon, where the carbon atoms are arranged in a variation of the face-centered cubic crystal structure called a diamond lattice. Diamond is less stable than graphite, but the conversion rate from diamond to graphite is negligible at standard conditions. Diamond is renowned as a material with superlative physical qualities, most of which originate from the strong covalent bonding between its atoms. In particular, diamond has the highest hardness and thermal conductivity of any bulk material. Those properties determine the major industrial application of diamond in cutting and polishing tools and the scientific applications in diamond knives and diamond anvil cells.
Because of its extremely rigid lattice, it can be contaminated by very few types of impurities, such as boron and nitrogen. Small amounts of defects or impurities (about one per million of lattice atoms) color diamond blue (boron), yellow (nitrogen), brown (lattice defects), green (radiation exposure), purple, pink, orange or red. Diamond also has relatively high optical dispersion (ability to disperse light of different colors).
One Voice may refer to:
One Voice Children's Choir (originally known as the 2002 Winter Olympic Children's Choir and Studio A Children's Choir) is an American children's choir in Utah.
The group was founded by Masa Fukuda in 2001 after he composed the song "It Just Takes Love" for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City, Utah. He asked students to help make a commemorative CD for the Olympics. Some of the students also were "children of light" performers for the Olympics, whom he volunteered to help train. After the Olympics, 25 students wanted to continue singing together, and Fukuda formed the choir as a nonprofit organization to continue working with them.
One Voice is led by director Fukuda and has 140 members ages 4–17. Every year, the choir perform around 50 to 70 times. The group meets year-round for once-a-week practices. They perform a vast selection of music such as pop music, gospel music, classical music, Broadway musical songs, and patriotic songs.
In 2003, the choir sang the Christmas song "Innocence of Youth" and won the John Lennon International Music Award after singing in a competition for Yoko Ono. In 2014, One Voice received national attention for their rendition of the Disney song "Let It Go", starring Lexi Walker and Alex Boyé. Their video received 1 million views in one day, 18 million in 10 days, and over 60 million by July 2015. They were invited to compete in the ninth season of America's Got Talent in 2014 and reached the quarterfinals.
A choir (/ˈkwaɪ.ər/) (also known as a chorale or chorus) is a musical ensemble of singers. Choral music, in turn, is the music written specifically for such an ensemble to perform. Choirs may perform music from the classical music repertoire, which spans from the Medieval era to the 2010s, and/or popular music repertoire. Most choirs are led by a conductor, who leads the performances with arm and face gestures.
A body of singers who perform together as a group is called a choir or chorus. The former term is very often applied to groups affiliated with a church (whether or not they actually occupy the choir) and the second to groups that perform in theatres or concert halls, but this distinction is far from rigid. Choirs may sing without instrumental accompaniment, with the accompaniment of a piano or pipe organ, with a small ensemble (e.g., harpsichord, cello and double bass for a Baroque era piece), or with a full orchestra of 70-100 musicians.
The term "Choir" has the secondary definition of a subset of an ensemble; thus one speaks of the "woodwind choir" of an orchestra, or different "choirs" of voices and/or instruments in a polychoral composition. In typical 18th- to 21st-century oratorios and masses, chorus or choir is usually understood to imply more than one singer per part, in contrast to the quartet of soloists also featured in these works.

Looking for direction , the mighty Amazon
Only one ambition , to find the precious stone
When I was a boy it was a vision
Now it all just seems like deja-vu
Maybe it was all a premonition
Searchin' for treasure in the land of Peru , ooh
Diamonds ( diamonds) up , down , in and out of the Amazon
Diamonds ( diamonds) , he won't stop , the kid goes on and on
Saw the holy temple , a man was on his knees
Sacrificion ceremony , the Gods they wanna please , oh
Then the people shouted with emotion
Try to scale the giant pyramid
Following the writing on the sandstone
(saying the stone was in the room of the dead) oh no no no
Diamonds (diamonds) up , down , in and out of the Amazon
Diamonds (diamonds) he won't stop , the kid goes on and on
Oh burning with fever , I'm dying of hunger
I'm searching all night , searching all night , all night
(break)
Then I jumped and run into the jungle
The solid ground gave way beneath my feet
Fallen inside an icy tomb forever
(the rock he was after is now out of reach)
Diamonds (diamonds) up , down , in and out the Amazon
Diamonds (diamonds) he won't stop , the kid goes on and on
Diamonds (diamonds) up , down , in and out the Amazon
Diamonds (diamonds) he won't stop , the kid goes on and on
Diamonds (diamonds) up , down , in and out of the Amazon
