    Thomas Wayne

    Thomas Wayne (Dr. Thomas Wayne, M.D.) is a fictional character appearing in American comic books published by DC Comics, most commonly in the Batman comic book series. A gifted physician and philanthropist, Dr. Thomas Wayne is the father of Bruce Wayne and the husband of Martha Wayne. He is the inheritor of the Wayne family fortune after Patrick Wayne, which was built through industry and real estate by previous generations. He is first introduced in Detective Comics #33 (November 1939) in the first exposition of Batman's origin story. In the story, he and his wife are murdered by a mugger, traumatizing yet influencing their son to be Batman.

    The character plays a major role in Geoff Johns' alternate timeline comic Flashpoint (2011) as a hardened version of Batman.

    Background

    Thomas Wayne is seldom shown outside of Bruce Wayne and Alfred Pennyworth's memories of him, and often through Bruce's dreams and nightmares. He is frequently depicted as looking very much like his son, but sporting a thick mustache.

    Thomas Wayne (singer)

    Thomas Wayne (July 22, 1940, Batesville, Mississippi - August 15, 1971, Memphis, Tennessee) was an American singer. He is best remembered as a one-hit wonder for "Tragedy".

    Career

    Wayne, who was born Thomas Wayne Perkins, was the brother of Johnny Cash's guitarist, Luther Perkins. He released several singles between 1958 and 1964, primarily on the labels Fernwood and Mercury. He scored a major U.S. hit with the song "Tragedy" (credited to Thomas Wayne with the DeLons), which peaked at #20 on the Black Singles chart and #5 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1959. It sold over one million copies, earning gold disc status.

    The song proved to be his only hit, however. Later, Wayne worked as a sound engineer, before he died in a car accident, at the age of 31, in Memphis in 1971.

    How Long (Ace song)

    "How Long" is a 1974 song by the British group Ace from their album Five-A-Side. It reached No. 3 in the US and Canadian charts, and No. 20 in the UK chart.

    Although widely interpreted as being about adultery, the song was in fact composed by lead singer Paul Carrack upon discovering that bassist Terry Comer had been secretly working with the Sutherland Brothers and Quiver. Comer returned to Ace in time to play on the song.

    The guitar solo is by Alan "Barn" King.

    Covers

    In 1976 Bobby Womack recorded a version that appeared on the Home Is Where The Heart Is album

    In 1977 Barbara Mandrell recorded a country/disco version of the song on her Love's Ups & Downs album.

    In 1981 Rod Stewart covered the song on the album Tonight I'm Yours. It charted in the top fifty of the Billboard Hot 100.

    In 1981 Lipps Inc. released a remake of this song which reached No. 4 on the U.S. dance chart, No. 29 on the U.S. soul singles chart, and No. 42 in Canada. In 2010, it was still in rotation on satellite radio. The track Timecode, released in 2004 by German techno producer Justus Köhncke, is built around the characteristic intro of the Lipps Inc. version.

    Extreme Behavior

    Extreme Behavior is the debut album of rock band Hinder. It was released in 2005 by Universal Records to almost universally negative reviews, before going platinum in September 2006. All songs were co-written by Brian Howes, except for "Shoulda", which was co-written with Brian Howes and Social Code. The song "Running in the Rain" did not make the cut for the album, but has been played at concerts on their North American tour. Due to use of profanity in three songs, Extreme Behavior was the only Hinder record to receive a Parental Advisory label until the release of the deluxe version of All American Nightmare and their 2012 album Welcome to the Freakshow.

    Release

    The first single (and the song that brought attention to the band) was "Get Stoned". The album also contains Hinder's breakthrough single, "Lips of an Angel" which soared to #1 on the pop charts in 2006. The album's third single was "How Long", which was played on rock stations throughout the US. "Better Than Me" is the fourth single on Extreme Behavior. As of July 11, 2007, the album has sold 2,789,275 copies in the US. Despite not being released as a single, the song "By the Way" also had received airplay from several radio stations.

    How Long?

    by: Lifehouse

    Climb on top of all you despise
    It's a better view from the lies
    Two steps behind before I've begun
    Time stops to tell me all I could have done
    So, how long 'til the world will be completed?
    How many times will history repeat it?
    How long will it take, how long, how long?
    I want to go, will you show me the way?
    I'd rather be wrong than be deceived
    To thinking that I have believe
    That I can stand to be here on my own
    There's too many questions that we won't ask
    In hopes that this too will pass
    But how far down do we have to go before we know it?
    How long 'til the world will be completed?
    How many times will history repeat it?
    How long will it take, how long, how long?
    I want to go, will you show me the way?
    How long 'til the world will be completed?
    How many times will history repeat it?
    How long will it take, how long, how long?
    I want to go, will you show me the way?
    How long, how long, how long will it take, how long?
    How long, how long?
    I want to go, will you show me the way?
    How long, how long, how long will it take?
    How long 'til the world could be completed?
    How many times will history repeat it?
    How long 'til the words fall to the pages?
