Rise
Herb Alpert Lyrics

I enjoy it very much.
However anyone who is familiar with Kind of Blue (Miles Davis quintet) might disagree

@tonoslim

Last month, my grandfather passed away. His request for his funeral: "play my two favorite songs, Heaven by Bebe and CeCe Winans and Rise by Herb Alpert." And that's exactly what we gave him! Rest in Heaven, Grandaddy!!!!!

@dougsmuskoka

Excellent choice for your Grandaddy, I'm sure he had a smile on his face for you.

@missladybug6712

I'm so sorry for your loss. Your grandfather is smiling down on you. ❤

@ricardopatton7538

That was a great tribute to his last days on this unfortunate place we call EARTH.

@thedudecopter

My grandfather loved Herb Alpert and I was fortunate to get his album collection after he passed. Your grandfather was a real one for those requests.

So did my Mom. Herb Alpert & the Tijuana Brass. Still adore him because of her....

@EP65

Same👍 My dad had the album America in the seventies. I binged it as a kid.

@stilllovethoseOsmonds

Luke & Laura's love song from General Hospital when Luke kind of "seduced Laura!! And they ended up having the most watched wedding of that time!! Back when soap operas were so GOOD!!!! I sure miss those wonderful times 😢 a whole different era. 😔

This has to be one of the best instrumentals of all time. I love Herb Alpert's music. Music this good isn't made anymore.

@humbleevidenceaccepter7712

59. This song by chance played a lot on my clock radio when the alarm went off in the morning. This will always remind me of getting up for school in jr high.

@ChristopherColes-lm9vu

Same impact on me also! First remember hearing this song riding in my dad’s car late at night as our family was driving back home to Michigan from Ohio. My grandfather had passed and we were in Ohio all week for his funeral. First real experience for me losing someone I cared about and understanding it as I was nine years old at the time. Hearing this song always reminded me of my grandfather and also my dad because I knew how sad he was to lose his father. Amazing how music connects us to life.

Herb Alpert is a certified legend! Loved his music as a kid and Rise is a classic twice, the original and the section starting at 3:12 that became the beat for Hypnotize by the Notorious BIG. His music transcends generations.

@galaxylucia1898

It’s so crazy because I never realized that this song was sampled by Notorious BIG as a teen!! I was just listening to Hynoptize a week ago, and then last night I watched Spiderhead and it finally clicked in my ears when the song played in the movie!!

This song to me is a feel good love song. It's a full force, no nonsense song that makes the listener feel the vibes that could only bring pride and love. Mr. Albert's performance shines through with gusto, as he lets his trumpet do the "singing". Overall, this song should sell more today and introduce the Meleniums to the sounds that could only be Herb Alpert.

@muppetrowlf1473

Sounds like you need to broaden your musical appreciation a bit. To understand that musicians have take parts from songs and music since time began.
Hip Hop and Rap artists just need beats. Hence the lifted drum loop.

If you listened to ELO you will hear the Beatles.
If you listen to Emerson Lake and Palmer, you will hear phrases almost lifted wholesale, by Keith Emerson, from practically anything by Dave Brubeck. Particularly Blue Rhonda A La Turk.

Just the genetics of music. That’s all it is.

I happen to be old enough to remember where it started. I don’t think there’s anything wrong in what I said. It began by mixing drum breaks on vinyl records. Fairly simple no?

Incredibly talented man, and a great singer as well. His wife’s not too shabby either. Lovely voice!

@Skateboarding79

Sergio Mendes seen her singing at a small place when he was wanting to form a band. She was 19 at the time and living at home. Sergio asked her parents if she could come with him and possibly a few others in the band. Her dad said yes but you call me if there's any problem. She didn't need to and they became the famous and great, Brasil 66.

A old friend of mine from back in the day, Andy Armer wrote this song and Herb recorded it. I went to A&M Record's and watched Herb work on a new album as Andy and Herb's nephew Randy were recording an album in Studio C, the same one used by the Bangle's to record their hits. The years have gone by but the memories are like yesterday. 🎺🎼💽

I grew up in the Mountains of South America and this song made me dance at night under the stars
shinning on the Andes, with my soul hovering just above me and dancing alongside letting me know
how alive I truly was, a part of this wonderful Creation that made me realize this is a Eternal Dance.
And I have forever more been Invited In.

Herb Alpert is the only artist in the rock era to have gone to # 1 with both a vocal & instrumental:"This Guy's In Love With You" (1968) & "Rise" (1979)-"Rise" is an awesome instrumental.

Laura's Rape Song. And yes, this is how I asked for the 45 at Montgomery Ward. And the salesgirl knew exactly what I wanted lol

She recently said she wished she had not done that scene and storyline. All I can say is that it was a product of its time, for better, or worse.

@blackdogslivesmatter1568

A few years ago I googled Luke and Laura's rape song and I couldn't find anything that came up. As far as humans have come in 2023 I am so glad that I grew up in the 80's. Imagine being bullied online or having people take pictures of every damn thing you do in life? If this rape had occurred in 2023 no doubt there would have been pictures all over the internet and not just a song.

Herb, I hope you live to be 100 so I can continue to enjoy your timeless unbelievable music. I am 69 years old and I have listened to your music since I was a 12-year-old in California on my mother and dad‘s hi-fi in the living room. first album I ever heard was whipped cream unbelievable album and you have done nothing but turn out gold and gold continuously.

@Cl4rendon

"Rise" & "Rotation" (12 mix) caught my attention back then as a DJ - Now they still sound so fresh!
Herb`s music always expressed a sort of hedonism you can`t get anymore.. That`s why a little melancholy also flows in his songs.
