Ray Charles

Ray Charles Robinson (September 23, 1930 – June 10, 2004) was an American musician known as Ray Charles (to avoid confusion with champion boxer Sugar Ray Robinson.) He was a pioneer in the genre of soul music during the 1950s by fusing rhythm and blues, gospel, and blues styles into his early recordings with Atlantic Records. He also helped racially integrate country and pop music during the 1960s with his crossover success on ABC Records, most notably with his Modern Sounds albums. While with ABC, Charles became one of the first African-American musicians to be given artistic control by a mainstream record company.Frank Sinatra called Charles “the only true genius in show business.” more »

 Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!

When you're awake
The things you think
Come from the dream
You dream
Thought has wings
And lots of things
Are seldom
What they seem

Sometimes you think
You've lived before
All that you
Live to day
Things you do
Come back to you
As though
They knew the way

Oh the tricks
Your mind can play

It seems we stood
And talked
Like this before
We looked
At each other
In the same way
Then but I
Can't remember
Where or when

The clothes
You're wearing
Are the close
You wore
The smile
You are smiling
You were
Smiling then
But I
Can't remember
Where or when

Some things
That happened
For the
First time
Seem to be
Happening again

And so it seems
That we have
Met before
And that we
Laughed before
Also loved before
But who knows
Where or when
