Secret Society is the seventh studio album by the Swedishrock band Europe. It was released on October 25, 2006, by Sanctuary Records. "We think it's one of the strongest albums that Europe has ever done," vocalist Joey Tempest said, "There is definitely some more melodic stuff on this one. Start from the Dark was very raw and made a statement, which is cool but for us it felt like a debut album in a way, so we wanted to branch out a bit on this one and take it to new levels."
Secret Society is an Americanhip-hop group from Brooklyn, New York. The group was ultimately formed in 2005 by Necro and Non Phixion, but its members had previously collaborated on numerous occasions prior to Secret Society's formation. Previously, all five members of Secret Society had been notable contributors in the underground rap scene.
A society is a group of people involved in persistent social interaction, or a large social grouping sharing the same geographical or social territory, typically subject to the same political authority and dominant cultural expectations. Societies are characterized by patterns of relationships (social relations) between individuals who share a distinctive culture and institutions; a given society may be described as the sum total of such relationships among its constituent members. In the social sciences, a larger society often evinces stratification or dominance patterns in subgroups.
Insofar as it is collaborative, a society can enable its members to benefit in ways that would not otherwise be possible on an individual basis; both individual and social (common) benefits can thus be distinguished, or in many cases found to overlap.
A society can also consist of like-minded people governed by their own norms and values within a dominant, larger society. This is sometimes referred to as a subculture, a term used extensively within criminology.
Society was an 1865 comedy drama by Thomas William Robertson regarded as a milestone in Victorian drama because of its realism in sets, costume, acting and dialogue. Unusually for that time, Robertson both wrote and directed the play, and his innovative writing and stage direction inspired George Bernard Shaw and W. S. Gilbert.
Origins
The play originally ran at the Prince of Wales's Theatre, Liverpool, under the management of Mr A. Henderson, opening on 8 May 1865. It was recommended to Effie Wilton, the manager of the Prince of Wales's Theatre in London's West End, by H. J. Byron, where it ran from 11 November 1865 to 4 May 1866 Robertson found fame with his new comedy, which included a scene that fictionalized the Fun gang, who frequented the Arundel Club, the Savage Club, and especially Evans's café, where they had a table in competition with the Punch 'Round table'. The play marked the London debut of Squire Bancroft, who went on to marry Effie Wilton in 1867 and become her co-manager.

Secret Society-Todd Rundgren (Utopia) LYRICS IN DESC
lyrics
When we were young they would break our hearts
You and I had to go undercover
We knew in time we would be pulled apart
We found a way we could hold on to each other
Gave our souls to another world
Sealed in blood with a sacred vow
Now we've forgotten what's beneath all this
A part of you and me is still there now
Go on and sing, go on and dance
It'll all come back if you just give it a chance
Don't you remember me?
We were a secret society
back in your memory
We were the secret society
Refresh your memory
We were the secret society
Until eternity
We are the secret society
I never see you in the waking world
We make an effort to avoid each other
But every night we penetrate the veil
Where everybody acts like sister and brother
You never speak the words in broad daylight
They'...

We make an effort to avoid each other
But every night we penetrate the veil
Where everybody acts like sister and brother
You never speak the words in broad daylight
They're much too delicate and too naive
But everybody's been a witness sometime
It doesn't change it if you don't believe, so
Go on dance, go on and sing,
someday soon you'll hear that little bell ring
And you'll remember me
We were a secret society
Not just a memory
You're in the secret society
But you've got to come with me
You're in the secret society
Until eternity
We are the secret society

I hope I never stop struggling Check my pulse I want to always give in to giving away Feeling the pressure Sweat on my brow My calling card is working hard every day Stalking executives playing the dirty hand Bulldozing ghetto land That's a bad business, man You'll be held up to right When you've known it from wrong All along secret society was wrong So tell me, who is the hand pressing down on the man who is trying to change? So tell me, who is the hand pressing down on the man who is trying to be saved? Secret society Your every move is what they see Don't do what they say We've got to spread this infection Word to soul A super sport hotrod to the frontline Forget depression Don't take their medicine We need you straight We're running late and out of time Hit up the CEO Talk to the factory head Got to get out of bed They can't hear you when you're dead You'll be held up to right When you've known it from wrong All along secret society was wrong As long as it's a secret We're not safe And if we keep it Nothing will change But if we tell it Well, we could die If you don't believe it You will one day
... “SecretSociety” and “Rock Love”), the prevailing vibe of the night hewed to the textured, soulful side of Rundgren’s repertoire, keeping the temperature on simmer.
