Stop the Music may refer to:
Stop The Music (March 23, 1970 – July 8, 2005) was an American thoroughbred racehorse and sire.
Owned and bred in Kentucky by the Greentree Stud, Inc., he was sired by Hail To Reason, out of the mare Bebopper, whose sire, Tom Fool, was the leading broodmare sire for 1965 and was inducted into National Museum of Racing and Hall of Fame. He was trained by John M. Gaver, Sr.
Stop The Music was born in the same year as Secretariat, and they were rivals in many races. His victory as a two-year-old in the Champagne Stakes under jockey John Rotz came as a result of a disqualification due to Secretariat's bumping incident while rounding the turn. A few weeks later, Stop The Music again met Secretariat in the Laurel Futurity Stakes, but placed second to him.
As a three-year-old, Stop The Music won the Dwyer Stakes. He also set a new track record of 1:33 3/5 at Belmont Park for the mile that stood until Conquistador Cielo broke it in 1982 in the Metropolitan Handicap.
I listened in
Yes I'm guilty of this
You should know this
I broke down and wrote you back
Before you had a chance to
Forget forgotten
I am moving past this giving notice
I have to go
Yes I know the feeling,
Know you're leaving
Calm down, I'm calling you to say
I'm capsized, staring on the edge of safe
Calm down, I'm calling back to say
I'm home now
I'm coming around, coming around
Nobody likes to but I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
Spelled out your name and lists the reasons
Pain of heart
Don't call me back
I imagine you when I was distant
Non-insistent
I follow suit and layed out on my back Imagine that
A million hours left to think of you
And think of that
Calm down, I'm calling you to say
I'm capsized, staring on the edge of safe
Calm down, I'm calling back to say
I'm home now
And coming around, coming around
Nobody likes to but I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Encircle me, I need to be, taken down
Nobody likes to
But I really like to cry
Nobody likes me
Maybe if I cry
