The Ford Thunderbird is an automobile that was manufactured by Ford in the United States over eleven model generations from 1955 through 2005. The Thunderbird created a market niche that eventually became known as the personal luxury car.
The Thunderbird entered production for the 1955 model year as a sporty two-seat convertible. Unlike the Chevrolet Corvette, it was not marketed as a sports car. Ford positioned the Thunderbird as an upscale model and is credited in developing a new market segment, the personal luxury car. In 1958, the Thunderbird gained a second row of seats. Succeeding generations became larger until the line was downsized in 1977, again in 1980, and once again in 1983. Sales were good until the 1990s, when large 2-door coupes became unpopular; production ceased at the end of 1997. In 2002 production of the Thunderbird started again, a revived 2-seat model was launched, which was available through the end of the 2005 model year. From its introduction in 1955 to its phaseout in 2005, Ford produced over 4.4 million Thunderbirds.
Grease is a 1971 musical by Jim Jacobs and Warren Casey with additional songs written by John Farrar. Named after the 1950s United States working-class youth subculture known as greasers, the musical is set in 1959 at fictional Rydell High School (based on Chicago, Illinois' William Howard Taft School) and follows ten working-class teenagers as they navigate the complexities of peer pressure, politics, personal core values, and love. The score attempts to recreate the sounds of early rock and roll. In its original production in Chicago, Grease was a raunchy, raw, aggressive, vulgar show. Subsequent productions sanitized it and tamed it down. The show mentions social issues such as teenage pregnancy, peer pressure and gang violence; its themes include love, friendship, teenage rebellion, sexual exploration during adolescence, and, to some extent, class consciousness/class conflict.
Grease was first performed in 1971 in the original Kingston Mines Chicago club, located in an old trolley barn (now the site of a hospital parking garage). From there, it has been successful on both stage and screen, but the content has been diluted and its teenage characters have become less Chicago habitués and more generic. At the time that it closed in 1980, Grease's 3,388-performance run was the longest yet in Broadway history, although it was surpassed by A Chorus Line a few years later. It went on to become a West End hit, a hugely successful film, two popular Broadway revivals in 1994 and 2007, and a staple of regional theatre, summer stock, community theatre, and high school and middle school drama groups. It remains Broadway's 15th longest-running show. Aspects of the stage play would be incorporated into the production's 2016 live TV musical.
Angry Birds is a video game franchise created by Finnish computer game developer Rovio Entertainment. Inspired by Crush the Castle, the first game in the series was initially released in December 2009 for Apple iOS. As of October 2010, 12 million copies of the game were purchased from App Store. The company then released ports of the game for other touchscreen smartphone operating systems, including Android, Symbian and Windows Phone. The franchise has since been expanded to include video game console and PC ports.
Angry Birds has been praised for its successful combination of fun gameplay, comical style, and low price. Its popularity led to many spin-offs, versions of Angry Birds being created for PCs and gaming consoles, a market for merchandise featuring its characters, a televised cartoon series, and an upcoming feature film. In January 2014 there had been over two billion downloads across all platforms, including both regular and special editions: as of July 2015, the series’ games have been downloaded more than three billion times collectively, making it the most downloaded freemium game series of all time. The original Angry Birds has been called "one of the most mainstream games out right now", "one of the great runaway hits of 2010", and "the largest mobile app success the world has seen so far".An animated feature film based on the series will be released by Columbia Pictures on May 20, 2016, and the first main-series sequel, Angry Birds 2, was released on July 30, 2015.

I-I-I-I, See them comin', comin'
They wanna see me down but i wont stop
they want me in the ground man i wont stop
till im dead man i wont stop
nooo
I've grown to no sucesses and easy coming
climbing higher as i raise its hard to see the summit
These other dudes hate the haters but for me its nothin
I know im great im stayin' positive through weak
asumptions.
They just told me sucess will never just come
but to me i keep grinding cause i be second to none.
I'm that angry little kid cause his father left both
his sons.
and i do it for my place cause i be destined for one.
I'm boxing in the ring got my mind set on one thing,
the top and when im here you are not saying a thing.
this is my spot, so call me the underdog or the rookie
or the kid who stands up for the people who have been
bullied
together we march stronger,
cause even when we see ground we get back up cause
we're used to being beat down.
just know that you messing with me is silly,
but it's hard when you're pressured to make a milli.
It's hard trying to redeem this asian place up in the
industry,
the past is history and this racism sickens me
and i don't need punchlines or similies or swear words
to show you no rapper will ever freak with me
i'm never getting scars from your hurting ways
sticks and stones break bones i'm an invertabrae
even when they're expecting me to give
up i know my legacy will live, ya hear me
Now I-I-I-I, See them comin', yeah
They wanna see me down but i wont stop
they want me in the ground man i wont stop
till im dead man i wont stop
I-I-I-I, See them comin', comin'
They wanna see me down but i wont stop
they want me in the ground man i wont stop
till im dead man i wont stop
