An echo from 1969, I heard this song on the radio last weekend and I thought to myself - yes, that is a great chorus. It's urging people to be themselves, live in a manner that feels right for them - no matter what anyone else might say or think. It celebrates independence and individualism.
Cass Elliot
Make Your Own Kind of Music
Written by Barry Mann and Cynthia Weil
Sung by Cass Elliot
[Verse 1]
Nobody can tell ya
There's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
'Cause it hangs them up
To see someone like you
[Chorus]
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along...
Nobody can tell ya
There's only one song worth singing
They may try and sell ya
'Cause it hangs them up
To see someone like you
[Chorus]
But you've gotta make your own kind of music
Sing your own special song
Make your own kind of music
Even if nobody else sings along...
Researching Cass Elliot's life I note that she died from a heart attack in 1974 in a flat (apartment) in London when she was thirty two years old. The flat was owned by Harry Nilsson. Four years later, The Who's eccentric drummer - Keith Moon died in the very same flat - also aged thirty two. I guess that they each made their own kind of music though it didn't last too long.
