One More Time (Joe Jackson Song)
"One More Time" is a song by the British new wave musician Joe Jackson. It was released as the third single from his debut album, '' Look Sharp!'', in 1979. Inspired by a breakup Jackson had, the song features a guitar riff and lyrics detailing a collapsing relationship. "One More Time" was released as a single, but did not see any chart success. The song has since been highlighted as one of the best off ''Look Sharp!'' and Graham Maby's bassline has been singled out as praiseworthy. Background "One More Time" was written by Jackson after a breakup with his girlfriend Jill. Jackson recalled that he embellished on the end of that relationship as the song developed. He explained in his autobiography, ''A Cure for Gravity'': The lyrics of "One More Time" feature the singer asking his ex-lover to truthfully tell him that she never loved him. Musically, the song is one of Jackson's more aggressive rock songs, featuring Joe Jackson on lead vocals and a prominent guitar riff to open ...

Songs Written By Joe Jackson (musician)
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 ...

And I've still got a 32-inch waist — so I don't think it's going to be embarrassing". In another interview, Jackson explained the origins of the album's inception. He said, It was released to moderately positive reviews. Rolling Stone rated it 3/5, stating that it was less visceral than his early-1980s music, but that "when it comes to edgy, sensitive-guy rock, he proves on Volume 4 that he still is the m ...
