Sir George Ivan "Van" Morrison, OBE (born 31 August 1945) is a British singer, songwriter and musician. He has received six Grammy Awards, the 1994 Brit Award for Outstanding Contribution to Music, and has been inducted into both the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame. In 2016 he was knighted for his musical achievements and his services to tourism and charitable causes in Northern Ireland.
Known as "Van the Man" to his fans, Morrison started his professional career when, as a teenager in the late 1950s, he played a variety of instruments including guitar, harmonica, keyboards and saxophone for various Irish showbands covering the popular hits of the day. He rose to prominence in the mid-1960s as the lead singer of the Northern Irish R&B band Them, with whom he recorded the garage band classic "Gloria". His solo career began under the pop-hit oriented guidance of Bert Berns with the release of the hit single "Brown Eyed Girl" in 1967. After Berns' death, Warner Bros. Records bought out his contract and allowed him three sessions to record Astral Weeks (1968). Even though this album would gradually garner high praise, it was initially a poor seller; Moondance (1970), however, established Morrison as a major artist, and he built on his reputation throughout the 1970s with a series of acclaimed albums and live performances. Morrison continues to record and tour, producing albums and live performances that sell well and are generally warmly received, sometimes collaborating with other artists, such as Georgie Fame and the Chieftains. In 2008 he performed Astral Weeks live for the first time since 1968.
Van Morrison: No Surrender is a biography of musician Van Morrison, written by Johnny Rogan. It was first published in 2005 by Secker & Warburg, and another edition was published by Vintage Books in 2006. Rogan interviewed musicians and friends of Morrison, and spent 20 years researching the book and four years writing it. The book is comprehensive, and goes into detail about multiple facets of Morrison's life. Rogan recounts Morrison's youth in Belfast, Northern Ireland, and how early experiences there informed his music. He discusses how Morrison joined various bands before experiencing success with Them. Morrison later signed a contract with Bert Berns and moved to New York, where he became quite popular after recording "Brown Eyed Girl" and albums Astral Weeks and Moondance. Rogan comments on Morrison's exploration of spirituality, and describes how these experiences influenced his musical work. The biography discusses Morrison's move to Britain and then Dublin, and his relationship with model Michelle Rocca.
"Wae Ireoni" (Korean: 왜 이러니, "What's Wrong?") is a song by South Korean girl group T-ara. It was released as the lead single for their first extended play Temptastic (2010). The single is the group's first release to feature their newly added seventh member, Hwayoung. Written by label-mate Yangpa and produced by Kim Do-hoon and Lee Sang-ho, the song contains influences from 1980s synthpop and features the use of an electric guitar in the instrumental.
The music video for "Wae Ireoni" premiered on November 23, 2010, the same day as the single's release. The director of the video was Lee Dae-jin, while the choreography was done by YAMA&HOTCHICKS.
The video starts off with member Park Ji-yeon, walking towards a mirror while the chorus of "Wae Ireoni" can be heard playing in the background. "Wae Ireoni" begins to play and the members Park Hyo-min, Lee Qri, Park Soyeon and Jeon Boram can be seen walking up the stairs to where a party is being held, as they wave at someone off camera. Jiyeon is pushed and pulled by the whole group into the party, where they socialize and check out the scene. The video cuts to various shots of the gathering and the members gussying up in the powder room; applying makeup and singing to the mirror. One of the guests, presumably Jiyeon's love interest, is blindfolded for a game and then tossed around in the surrounding circle of people. Jiyeon is deliberately shoved into him by Ham Eun-jeong, and she is embarrassed as he takes off his blindfolds. The music video continues with shots of Jiyeon flirting with the guest, and people dancing as confetti is thrown into the air. The video ends with T-ara walking through the lobby of the building, arm in arm while cheerfully laughing with each other.
Pacific Ocean Blue is the only studio album by American musician Dennis Wilson, drummer and co-founder of the Beach Boys. When released in August 1977, it was warmly received critically, and noted for outselling the Beach Boys' contemporary efforts. Two singles were issued from the album, "River Song" and "You and I", which did not chart.
The album remains a focal point of Wilson's legacy, being referred to as a "lost classic." It has appeared on several "Best-of" lists including Robert Dimery's "1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die," and Mojo's "Lost Albums You Must Own" and "70 of the Greatest Albums of the 70s" lists. In 2005, it was ranked #18 in GQ's "The 100 Coolest Albums in the World Right Now!" list.
Wilson intended to record a follow-up, entitled Bambu, but the album was left unfinished at the time of his death in December 1983.
After several attempts, starting in 1970, to realize his own project, some of which made it to the finished album, Wilson recorded the bulk of Pacific Ocean Blue in the months spanning the fall of 1976 to the following spring, at the Beach Boys' own Brother Studios. At the time of recording, Dennis' hard living had begun affecting his looks and more importantly his singing voice, which now delivered grainy and rough, yet still deeply soulful, vocals.

Send me your picture
Send me your pillow
Send it through Krishna
On the Vanlose Stairway
Send me your bible
Send me your Gita
I want to reach you
On the Vanlose Stairway
And your stairway
Reaches up to the moon
And it comes right back
It comes right back to you
Send me some loving
Send me some kissing
You know what I'm missing
On the Vanlose Stairway
On the Vanlose Stairway
Right there, hold it
And your stairway
Reaches up to the moon
And it comes right back
And it comes right back to you
