Songs Written By Rick Nielsen
A song is a musical composition performed by the human voice. The voice often carries the melody (a series of distinct and fixed pitches) using patterns of sound and silence. Songs have a structure, such as the common ABA form, and are usually made of sections that are repeated or performed with variation later. A song without instruments is said to be a cappella. 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 the classical tradition, it is called 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 composed for the mass market, designed to be sung by professional singers who sell their recordings or live shows, are called popular songs. These songs, which have broad appeal, are o ...

Bun E
A bun is a type of bread that is round and small enough that it can generally be eaten hand-held.

Heaven Tonight
''Heaven Tonight'' is the third studio album by American rock band Cheap Trick. It was produced by Tom Werman and released on April 24, 1978.

The album cover features lead singer Robin Zander and bassist Tom Petersson on the front, with guitarist Rick Nielsen and drummer Bun E. Carlos on the back. ''Heaven Tonight'' is considered Cheap Trick's best album by many fans and critics. While their debut album ''Cheap Trick'' showed the band's darker, rawer side and '' In Color'' explored a lighter, more pop-oriented persona, ''Heaven Tonight'' combined both elements to produce a hook-filled pop-rock album with an attitude. Popular songs from this album include the anthemic " Surrender", " Auf Wiedersehen", the title track, and a cover of the Move's " California Man". ''Heaven Tonight'' is also known as the first album ever recorded with a 12-string electric bass. Overview This was the secon ...
