The Singles & B-Sides 95–03
''The'' () is a grammatical article in English, denoting persons or things that are already or about to be mentioned, under discussion, implied or otherwise presumed familiar to listeners, readers, or speakers. 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. The word can be used with both singular and plural nouns, and with a noun that starts with any letter. This is different from many other languages, which have different forms of the definite article for different genders or numbers. Pronunciation In most dialects, "the" is pronounced as (with the voiced dental fricative followed by a schwa) when followed by a consonant sound, and as (homophone of the archaic pr ...

Songs Written By Mark Morriss
A song is a musical composition intended to be performed by the human voice. This is often done at distinct and fixed pitches (melodies) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs contain various forms, such as those including the repetition and variation of sections. Written words created specifically for music, or for which music is specifically created, are called lyrics. If a pre-existing poem is set to composed music in classical music it is an art song. Songs that are sung on repeated pitches without distinct contours and patterns that rise and fall are called chants. Songs composed in a simple style that are learned informally "by ear" are often referred to as folk songs. Songs that are composed for professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows to the mass market are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are often composed by professional songwriters, composers, and lyricists. Art songs are composed by trained classical composers fo ...

Science & Nature (The Bluetones Album)
''Science & Nature'' is the third album by The Bluetones. It was released on 15 May 2000 on Universal Records. Its offspring singles were " Keep the Home Fires Burning" and " Autophilia". " Mudslide" was released as an EP. Music According to Iain Forrester of '' Stylus Magazine'', ''Science & Nature'' "abandons the sound they stuck to rigidly elsewhere," and "while being successfully aware of their limitations throws everything they can think of (country, jazz, folk, prog) at melodic pop." He called it "inventive and gently surprising." Jason Damas of AllMusic AllMusic (previously known as All Music Guide and AMG) is an American online music database. It catalogs more than three million album entries and 30 million tracks, as well as information on musicians and bands. Initiated in 1991, the databa ... felt that the album was largely not as new wave-influenced as many suggested prior to release, except on "Mudslide", but did find the album to contain "a bit more of a p ...
