Stand!

Stand! is the fourth studio album by soul/funk band Sly and the Family Stone, written and produced by lead singer and multi-instrumentalist Sly Stone and released on May 3, 1969 on Epic Records, just before the group's celebrated performance at the Woodstock festival. Stand! was the band's most commercially successful album to date, with over 500,000 copies sold in the year of its release: it was certified gold in sales by the Recording Industry Association of America on December 4, 1969, went on to sell over three million copies and became one of the most successful albums of the 1960s. By 1986 it had sold well over 1 million copies and was certified platinum in sales by the RIAA on November 26 of that same year.

Stand! is also considered an artistic high-point of the band's career. In 2003 the album was ranked number 118 on Rolling Stone magazine's list of the 500 greatest albums of all time. It includes several well-known songs, among them hit singles, such as "Sing a Simple Song", "I Want to Take You Higher", "Stand!", and "Everyday People".

    Stand (Jewel song)

    "Stand" is a song by American pop singer–songwriter Jewel from her fourth studio album, 0304 (2003). Written and produced by Jewel and Lester Mendez, and released as the album's second single in October 2003 in the United States and later on internationally, the single failed to chart on the Billboard Hot 100. It reached number sixteen on the Hot 100 Singles Sales chart, and also became Jewel's third consecutive chart-topper on the Hot Dance Club Play.

    Background and writing

    "Stand" was written and produced by Kilcher and Lester Mendez.

    Critical reception

    Todd Burns from Stylus Magazine wrote that "It is a strong first song and while the lyrics are vaguely suspect, they can be ignored in favor of the driving beat."

    Commercial release

    The single edit saw no alteration from its original version. However, it was listed as Single Mix on some promotional singles, which is no different from the album version.

    "Stand" was released in two formats in the U.S.; the CD single contains "Stand" and the 0304 trumpet-driven track "Leave the Lights On" as a coupling track, while the CD maxi single contains the song's club mixes. Both singles contained two different covers. International singles received the title track and some club mixes for its final release.

    by: Billy Ray Cyrus

    Story of a heart in need
    Playin' on my T.V. screen
    Will I sit back and watch it fade?
    There's gotta be a better way.
    Love is more than what you feel
    Love is action, love is real
    Break your silence, turn the key
    And be the change you wanna see.
    So get ready, come on everybody
    Are you ready to:
    Stand, for what you believe in
    Stand, for all that is right
    Stand, when it's dark all around you
    You can be that shining light.
    Stand, when troubles come calling
    Your gonna be alright
    Stand, just reach deep inside you
    And be that shining light.
    Stand.
    I feel the earth shake, raise my voice
    I have my soul, I have a choice
    I feel it burning, I want more
    So what am I waiting for?
    So get ready, come on everybody
    Are you ready to:
    Stand, for what you believe in
    Stand, for all that is right
    Stand, when it's dark all around you
    You can be that shining light.
    Stand, when troubles come calling
    Your gonna be alright
    Stand, just reach deep inside you
    And be that shining light.
