It is the definite article in English. ''The'' is the most frequently used word in the English language; studies and analyses of texts have found it to account for seven percent of all printed English-language words. It is derived from gendered articles in Old English which combined in Middle English and now has a single form used with nouns of any gender.

So Young (The Stone Roses Song)
"So Young/Tell Me" is the debut double A-side single by English rock band The Stone Roses, produced by Martin Hannett and released in 1985 on Thin Line. The single went without much notice outside of Manchester, and demonstrates a very different aggressive punk\ New wave style than the band's later material with Reni in particular showcasing a more exuberant drumming style. "So Young" was originally titled "Misery Dictionary", but the band changed the song's title to make it sound less negative and because they did not want people to think that they were influenced by The Smiths who had similarly titled songs, such as "Miserable Lie" and "Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now". The front cover artwork was produced by John Squire, who smashed an old transistor radio and then glued the parts together. Recorded at Strawberry Studios, the double A-side 12-inch vinyl single was the producer Martin Hannett's first release with tape operator David Wood on Hannett's newly created Thinline Re ...

It was described by ''The Times'' as "the standard against which all others must be judged".

''The Encyclopedia of Popular Music'' is the result. In 1989, Larkin sold his half of the publishing company Scorpion Books to finance his ambition to publish an encyclopedia of popular music. Aided by a team of initially 70 contributors, he set about compiling the data in a pre-internet age, "relying instead on information gleaned from music magazines, individual expertise a ...
