China Drum ~ Down By The River


Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls Down by the river, it's getting cold Down by the river, it's getting cold It's getting cold The roads are stained, it seems impossible, impossible to clean The oil and the salt mix to a shiny, shiny gleam Down by the river, it's getting cold Down by the river, it's getting cold But it won't stop the bastards trying And it won't stop the people from dying But it won't stop the bastards trying And it's all because of you All because of you Because of you Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls Down by the river, it's getting cold Down by the river, it's getting cold But it won't stop the bastards trying And it won't stop the people from dying But it won't stop the bastards trying And it's all because of you All because of you Down by the river it's getting cold Down by the river it's getting cold Because of you Down by the river it's getting cold Down by the river it's getting cold more free lyrics

Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes
Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls

Down by the river, it's getting cold
Down by the river, it's getting cold
It's getting cold

The roads are stained, it seems impossible, impossible to clean
The oil and the salt mix to a shiny, shiny gleam

Down by the river, it's getting cold
Down by the river, it's getting cold

But it won't stop the bastards trying
And it won't stop the people from dying
But it won't stop the bastards trying
And it's all because of you
All because of you
Because of you

Girls are walking with their mothers, shopping for clothes
Sons are sitting with their fathers, fishing for ideas in their souls

Down by the river, it's getting cold
Down by the river, it's getting cold

But it won't stop the bastards trying
And it won't stop the people from dying
But it won't stop the bastards trying
And it's all because of you
All because of you

Down by the river it's getting cold
Down by the river it's getting cold
Because of you
Down by the river it's getting cold
Down by the river it's getting cold

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
