[00:07.936]What's jazz
[00:09.886]Originating in America
[00:14.155]An African and European mix
[00:18.330]But then all this is known to everyone
[00:21.422]No fun to hear all that you know
[00:24.508]What's jazz
[00:26.531]You know of Count Basie, John Coltrane
[00:30.633]Louis Armstrong and all those names
[00:34.615]You know they made the different styles we hear
[00:37.926]The Swing, Be-bop and Dixieland
[00:40.977]But is "Jazz" a style
[00:45.032]Or just the rhythm played
[00:49.207]And will it still be jazz
[00:53.245]Without the improvising style
[00:56.451]Is it an American thing
[01:01.394]A culture old and boring
[01:05.568]Does it have to be done the way that they've played
[01:09.742]Cause isn't jazz supposed to be fun and free
[01:13.914]You know
[01:15.920]I haven't studied to sing at school
[01:20.245]I don't know about all the chords they use
[01:24.291]The music theory that they play is too
[01:27.465]Confusing for my simple mind
[01:30.623]You see
[01:32.612]Ella, Billie and Anita taught me all I know
[01:37.769]That's how I sing my jazz
[02:52.620]"That's not jazz"
[02:55.871]Or "It's a privilege"
[03:00.020]We've heard them many times
[03:04.130]But don't you see it's not logic
[03:07.407]Miles Davis is great to hear
[03:12.390]But try a different ear
[03:16.628]4 Hero, Jazzanova, Matthew Herbert
[03:20.705]Cause otherwise you're saying
[03:23.949]That "Jazz" is dead
[03:24.947]One thing
[03:26.954]Let me explain I do love the old
[03:31.127]But I'm living in the present "now"
[03:35.214]To me the music "jazz" is our spirit
[03:38.514]Like Blues and Soul and also Rock
[03:41.695]That's jazz
[03:43.662]That's why I sing as I sing today
[03:47.987]And I'll be singing all I feel "That's Jazz"
