Public Enemy - Chuck D Forgets Public Enemy Lyrics
PUBLIC ENEMY star CHUCK D is nervous about reuniting with his bandmates - because he fears he has forgotten the lyrics to their hit tracks.
The hip-hop band has agreed to reform to mark the 20th anniversary of their 1988 album It Takes A Nation Of Millions To Hold Us.
But the rap pioneer is nervous about the band's forthcoming U.K. tour - because he can't remember all the words to their songs.
He says, "Just trying to remember all the lyrics is going to be hard. Some people have a gift for that, but I never had. Always found it difficult. We ain't all been together in a room for an age and we got some figuring out to do when we meet up next week. But, hey, what's the worst thing that can happen? You're going to write a bad review? Ain't no big deal. We're beyond all that now."

That kid was Marc Cohn and presently after that morning, he bought everything Morrison had released to date, along with industrial plant by Joni Mitchell and Jackson Browne. Not long after an sr. brother taught him a Ray Charles tune on the piano, he joined a cover band, Doanbrook Hotel. He american ginseng with them from jnr high school until he left home for Oberlin College. All the spell, Cohn conditioned to play guitar and was dabbling with the slyness of songwriting since the cover dance band played everything but the kind of songs he loved so affectionately. At Oberlin, Cohn taught himself to play the piano and a permanent adhesion formed. Soon enough, he transferred to U.C.L.A. and hit the Los Angeles coffee shop and steakhouse circuit. Cohn made yet another displace -- this time to New York to be with his fiancée and he then formed the Supreme Court, a 14-piece dance band complete with horn segment. Putting the unusual spins on popular tunes, the band gained a following which included Carly Simon, wHO recommended they play Caroline Kennedy's hymeneals. That gig seemed like a practiced stopping tip, as Cohn leftfield the band to once again focus on his have songs. He sent a piano/vocal demo to Atlantic Records and landed himself a apportion and from there he co-produced his debut with Ben Wisch with some aid from John Leventhal. What emerged was a attractively neat and intelligent album that included the score "Walking in Memphis" and won Cohn a Grammy Award for Best New Artist. The Rainy Season followed in 1993 and was a thematic complement to Cohn's debut. Folks like David Crosby and Graham Nash stepped up to the mic to impart their vocal support to this soulful new endowment. Cohn was quiet for respective long time until 1998 with the spillage of Burning the Daze. Once over again, the guests seamed up to look with Cohn. From Patty Griffin and Rosanne Cash to Chris Botti and Martin Sexton, Cohn is sure non unretentive on musical friends.
