• richard rodgers tarafından bestelenen ve sözleri oscar hammerstein ii'ye ait olan 1945 tarihli şarkı. aynı yıl sahnelenen carousel müzikali için yazılmış ve bu müzikalde ilk kez john raitt tarafından seslendirilmiştir. sözleri şöyledir;

    i wonder what he'll think of me
    i guess he'll call me "the old man"
    i guess he'll think i can lick
    ev'ry other fella's father
    well, i can!

    i bet that he turns out to be
    the spittin' image of his dad
    but he'll have more common sense
    than his puddin'-headed father ever had

    i'll teach him to wrassle and dive through a wave
    when we go in the morning for our swim
    his mother can teach him the way to behave
    but she won't make a sissy out o' him
    not him! not my boy! not bill!

    my boy, bill, i will see that he is named after me, i will.
    my boy, bill, he'll be tall and tough as a tree, will bill!
    like a tree he'll grow with his head held high
    and his feet planted firm on the ground
    and you won't see nobody dare to try to boss him or toss him around!
    no pot-bellied, baggy-eyed bully'll boss him around

    i don't give a damn what he does as long as he does what he likes!
    he can sit on his tail or work on a rail with a hammer and hammer in spikes!
    he can ferry a boat on a river or peddle a pack on his back
    or work up and down the streets of a town with a whip and a horse and a hack

    he can haul a scow along a canal, run a cow around a corral
    or maybe bark for a carousel
    of course, it takes talent to do that well

    he might be a champ of the heavyweights or a fella that sells you glue
    or president of the united states, that'd be all right, too

    [spoken:]
    his mother would like that, but he wouldn't be president unless he wanted to be
    not bill!

    my boy, bill he'll be tall and as tough as a tree, will bill
    like a tree he'll grow with his head held high
    and his feet planted firm on the ground
    and you won't see nobody dare to try to boss him or toss him around!
    no fat-bottomed, flabby-faced, pot-bellied, baggy-eyed bully'll boss him around

    and i'll be damned if he'll marry his boss's daughter
    a skinny-lipped virgin with blood like water
    who'll give him a peck and call it a kiss
    and look in his eyes through a lorgnette
    hey, why am i takin' on like this?
    my kid ain't even been born yet!

    i can see him when he's seventeen or so and startin' in to go with a girl
    i can give him lots of pointers, very sound, on the way to get 'round any girl
    i can tell him
    wait a minute!
    could it be?
    what the hell!
    what if he is a girl?
    you can have fun with a son
    but you got to be a father to a girl

    she mighn't be so bad at that
    a kid with ribbons in her hair!
    a kind of neat and petite little tin-type of her mother!
    what a pair!

    my little girl, pink and white as peaches and cream is she
    my little girl is half again as bright as girls were meant to be!
    dozens of boys pursue her, many a likely lad
    does what he can to woo her from her faithful dad

    she has a few pink and white young fellas of two and three
    but my little girl gets hungry ev'ry night and she comes home to me!

    i gotta get ready before she comes
    gotta make certain that she won't be dragged up in slums with a lot o' bums like me
    she's gotta be sheltered and fed and dressed in the best that money can buy!
    i never knew how to get money but, i'll try, by god! i'll try!
    i'll go out and make it or steal it
    or take it or die!

  • rush'ın kusursuz eseri 2112'in 2 dk 18 sn'lik 6. parçası. kahramanımızın rüyasından uyanıp iyice umutsuzluğa kapılması ve sonunda intiharı... harika vokalin yanı sıra dünyanın en güzel ve en duygu yüklü gitar sololarından birine sahip.
  • batı edebiyatındaki tiyatro eserlerinin bir parçasıdır. monolog kelimesinin synonymi olduğunu söyleyenler var ama monolog, tiyatro eserlerinin değil, edebiyat eserlerinin bir parçasıdır, bir yazınsal tür örneğidir. soliloquy ise performatif olan tiyatro sanatının bir parçası olarak bir karakterin sahnede tek başına konuşmasıdır. farkı tekrar ediyorum: monologda yazar tek başına konusur; soliloquy'da karakter tek başına konuşur.

    en meşhur soliloquy örneği shakespearein hamlet eserinin 3. perdesinin 1. sahnesinde geçen "to be or not to be..." repliğidir. burada yaklaşık 1 sayfa kadar laf var ve hamlet karakteri bunu tek başına söyler.
    bu performans benedict cumberbatch, andrew scott, daniel day-lewis ve ntl'nın bilumum oyuncuları tarafından oynanmış ve oynanmaktadır.
  • iç konuşma.
    psikolojide içini açma olarak da kullanılır.
