1. a Brasilian Christian Axé singer
2. a rapper
3. a band from New York, NY, United StatesJake
4. a short-lived Spencer Davis Group offshoot from the United Kingdom, active in 1972
5. a Christian pop trio
6. Jake E. Blues from The Blues Brothers

1. Jake was born in São Paulo - SP and started her musical life in the catholic universe as a teenager. Born on a catholic family , acted with the youth in artistic manifestations of the church, school and neighborhood. It was her admiration for the music, specially MPB (Brazilian Popular Music). Her vocal timbre led to the rhythms from the northeast and Jake was realizing she could turn her love and enjoyment of music into something serious. In December 2006 Jake launched her first Catholic Axé CD, bringing the public a revolutionary attitude, compared to the catholics' standards. But the paulistan soon conquered the public, showing her joy and irreverence. Currently Jake travels throughout Brazil taking her show to major micaretas and events. One of the successes of her CD, "Pó Pará Com o Pó" was one of the hits of carnival 2009. Jake enters the national music scene with his right foot, showing that those who have faith, also has axé.
2. Jake (The Rapper) = Jacob Dove Basker. Born in 1970 in the Bronx. Jake left America in 1990 to get a different perspective on the first gulf war. Jake started rapping in 1992 as his alter ego M.C. Eye, at a time when white rappers were still pariahs (with very few exceptions- ones like MC 900 Ft Jesus… hmm, does anyone else see a spiritual likeness between these two?), first under the patronage of the tough gals of drum and bass, “Die Patinnen”, then with the “Jonas Schoen Sextett” and as the leader of the Jazz rap combo “M.C. Eye & Blind Jazz”.
But it was in the Hamburg hiphop training camp “Trainingslager” that Jake learned to freestyle from his mentor/buddy/adopted son Mad Maxamom. The cross-styling also started soon thereafter, also with Max and with beatboxer Mark Boombastik in a band called “No Berlin No”, a trashpunkmetalrap band that made it a rule never to practice and still managed to entertain guests on stage like Peaches, Gonzales, and Maxwell from the “Meteorites”. Mark is seen again with Felix Kubin in Jake’s “other” band, “Anaerobic Robots”, of which the studio recordings still lie dormant on Felix’s hard drive.
Seeing as how Jake hails from the incubator of modern capitalism, it makes perfect sense that he let himself be playfully marketed as a product two years ago. The design agency Redesigndeutschland chose Jake as their guerilla-marketing posterboy ands attempted harbinger of peace (drop beats, not bombs), thus jettisoning him to regional fame, and eventually a damned record deal! Many concerts later people wearing Jake masks in Hamburg and Berlin were no rare occurrence (in one case every member of the band “Plokk” performed wearing them). It was actually a time when both cities were pitching for the privilege of presenting our portly protagonist, but in the end another was to win: Dusseldorf, home of Combination Records, that offered to not only satisfy our rolling rogue with copies of his own record, but to supply fans all over the world with his long awaited tour de force.
3. From (http://www.jakerocks.com/)
Jake is a NY band consisting of Jessie Lee Montague and John Annese. Jake is a dynamic, street-smart New York band that has created its own unique blend of modern rock and bluesy americana. From growling rock to soulful, sultry tunes that stir the imagination, front-woman Jessie Lee Montague’s beguiling, feline vocals and emotive lyrics pull it all together. After releasing their debut CD (Hooked) on Atlantic’s Blackbird Records, the band has achieved critical acclaim and a steadily growing regional following with Bloodblue and Snake Road, which they released on their own Desert Dog Records.
4. Ex-Spencer Davis Group members Eddie Hardin and Pete York spent most of the early 1970s working together as a duo. They also did occasional other projects, including a solo album each in 1972. In early April 1972 they also issued a single for the Deram label under the moniker Jake: 'And in the Morning' b/w 'You and Me'. Ex-Spencer Davis Group guitarist Ray Fenwick worked with them on this single.
5. Jake, the Christian pop/rock band, consisted of three brothers (Toby, Marty, and Josh Penner). They named their band after their dad. One could call them a boyband, but unlike many others in their genre they were songwriters, played their own instruments, and had a hand in the production. They were signed to Reunion Records and released two albums on the label, Jake (2000) and Army of Love (2002), before asking to be released from their contract after the second release. Toby Penner currently heads a band called TAP.
6. John Adam Belushi (January 24, 1949 – March 5, 1982) a.k.a. "Joliet" Jake E. Blues from The Blues Brothers was an American comedian, actor and musician, notable for his work on Saturday Night Live, National Lampoon's Animal House and The Blues Brothers. He was the brother of Jim Belushi.
Since the early-mid 1990s, The Blues Brothers band has re-united, and played on. They are sometimes joined by Dan Aykroyd on vocals, other times by various sound alike singers. The members had many recording sessions at the famous Cherokee Studios with Bruce Robb (producer) and Steve Cropper. John's brother James Belushi toured with the band for a short time. He recorded the album Blues Brothers & Friends: LIVE! From Chicago's H.O.B with Dan Aykroyd but he did not appear in Blues Brothers 2000 (1998). It's rumored he was approached to play not the role of Mighty Mack (played by John Goodman) but the role of the local Sheriff Chamberlain (the part played by Joe Morton). Jim would later reunite with Aykroyd to record yet another album, not as the Blues Brothers but as themselves: 'BELUSHI/AYKROYD -"Have Love Will Travel (Big Men-Big Music)"'.
7. Jake Barton is an experimental milk-punk musician from Kansas. He is best known for being the creator of characters bubbo and dinky.
Been A Long Time
Jake Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It's been a long time since I felt like I do now
Is it my imagination
You got through to me somehow
I don't even try to get you off my mind
And I know that I can't walk away this time
CHORUS ONE:
It's crazy, but this time I know
I want it
Oh, I need it
And every new sensation, every move you make
You know I'm ready
Oh, I'm ready
VERSE TWO:
Isn't it crazy what your heart can do sometimes
When it's not the same as yesterday
You open up your eyes
And you see the face you've been dreaming of
And you know that you're about to fall in love
(repeat chorus one twice)
CHORUS TWO:
And I wonder where you are tonight
I wonder if you'll be alright, I'm waiting
And it tears me up inside
And my heart, it feels so heavy
And I just can't take it anymore
I'm ready
Oh, I'm ready
It's been a long time since I felt like I do now
It's been a long, long time
Since I fell in love
Since I fell in
In love
Oh---
The lyrics of Jake's song "Been A Long Time" describe the complex emotions of someone who has recently fallen in love. The singer notes that it has been a long time since they have felt this way, and they wonder if it's just their imagination or if the other person has really "got through to them" somehow. Despite trying to get the new love interest out of their mind, the singer acknowledges that they cannot walk away from these feelings this time.
The chorus of the song emphasizes the intense and crazy emotions that come with falling in love. The singer loves the way they feel, and they know that they want and need this new love. Every sensation and movement that the object of their affection makes only intensifies these feelings. The repeated line "oh, I'm ready" shows that the singer is wholeheartedly embracing these new emotions, even though they are tearing them up inside.
The second verse of the song is more reflective, as the singer thinks about how crazy it is that their heart can change so quickly. They acknowledge that they see the face they have been dreaming of when they open up their eyes, and they know that they are about to fall in love. The second chorus adds to the emotional intensity of the song, as the singer wonders where the other person is and if they are okay. This uncertainty makes their heart feel heavy, but the singer still declares that they are ready for this new love.
Overall, the song captures the ups and downs of falling in love. It acknowledges the intense emotions and uncertainty that come with it, but ultimately celebrates the joy and excitement of embracing new love.
