Now I Can Dance (book)
''Now I Can Dance'' is an autobiography by Australian singer-songwriter Tina Arena. Arena says, "I don't know what I would do if I couldn't write and sing. It makes me who I am, regardless of where I happen to be or what language I'm speaking. It has done since I wrote my first song and sang it to myself in the shower. It's as natural for me as breathing." The title of her memoir, Now I Can Dance is taken from the third single from Arena's third studio album '' In Deep'' (1997). The track was written by Arena while living in L.A. and is a love letter from her to her family, as she explained in her autobiography. The song was successful in her native Australia, reaching #13 on the ARIA Singles Chart. In 2017, Arena updated her autobiography with the release of a new edition of ''Now I Can Dance (book)'', with new content covering her relocation from France back to Australia, being inducted into the 2015 ARIA Hall of Fame, the release of new music, and new musical ventures.

ARIA Hall Of Fame
In music, an aria (Italian: ; plural: ''arie'' , or ''arias'' in common usage, diminutive form arietta , plural ariette, or in English simply air) is a self-contained piece for one voice, with or without instrumental or orchestral accompaniment, normally part of a larger work. The typical context for arias is opera, but vocal arias also feature in oratorios and cantatas, or they can be stand-alone concert arias. The term was originally used to refer to any expressive melody, usually, but not always, performed by a singer. Etymology The Italian term ''aria'', which derives from the Greek ἀήρ and Latin ''aer'' (air), first appeared in relation to music in the 14th century when it simply signified a manner or style of singing or playing.

By the early 16th century it was in common use as meaning a simple setting of strophic poetry; mel ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
