Intro (Back To Basics)

(Spoken):
Very pleasant good evening, ladies and gentlemen….
It is now time…
The one and only…
There never will be another…

Christina Aguilera.

That’s how music should sound!

I’ve waited for some time
To get inside the minds
Of every legend I’ve ever wanted to stand beside.
It’s like an endless ride
Feeling the lows and highs
Of every lyric and melody, every single rhyme.

So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way.
And so to God i pray
That he will give me strength
To carry forward the gift of song in his good faith.
In his good faith.

I’m going back to basics
To where it all began
I’m ready now to face it
I wanna understand

What made the the soul singers and the blues figures
That inspired a higher generation
The jazz makers and the ground-breakers
They gave so much of themselves in dedication

So here I stand today
In tribute I do pay
To those before me who laid it down and paved the way.
