Life Through Music: "You Make the World Go Round" by DJ Cassidy



It’s been a very emotional and weird week for me. Such a week that I don’t even think I have the right words to put together to help explain what it is that I mean by saying that. All I know is we had the super moon going on this week and boy did it effect me. So instead of digging too deep this week I wanted to pick a song that has been a bright spot for me over the last few weeks. Something a bit more up tempo and that is a bit more fun if you will. In a way the song I picked is kind of a pep-talk for myself during this whirl wind of change that has been going on in my life. It’s a song that really helps me remember that I have an affect on others by doing the things I do and keeping the positivity going for the rest of the world. In essence you (Derrick Heine) help the world go round.


Speaking of making the world go round thats exactly what the song I picked for this week talks about. The song is conveniently titled “You Make the World Go Round” by DJ Cassidy and is featuring R. Kelly. This song has a great dance feel to it that from the moment I heard it I was hooked. The music video has some beautiful strings to open up the song to get your attention, but trust me when DJ Cassidy hits play on the small boombox your ears are hit with a fantastic dance track that is far from the slow string intro it begins with. A dance track that I love very much and have already listen to many times since I found it. So lets get right at it shall we? To the lyrics we go!




“You Make the World Go Round” by DJ Cassidy
Featuring R.Kelly

When I'm going through, you seem to know just what to say
To turn it all around and put a smile a smile right on my face
To me you are a blessing and I sure appreciate
How you change negative to positive and brighten up my day

(I sure hope that I do that for anyone that reads my words. I try to put a positive spin on anything that I write about or in life in general.)

And we never argued, I can't lose my will to carry on
I just look at you 'cause you give me the reason to be strong
If it wasn't for you, I just don't know where I would be
So tonight I'm gonna celebrate your love for me

(You know what? Yes, let us celebrate love tonight or today because we don’t celebrate it enough.)

Because
It's people like you
That make the world go round
Oh yes, it is
It's people like you
That make the world go round
Make it go round, and round, and round

(Not just me. I’m looking at you too. There is a reason you are here reading my words so you must be making the world go round too.)

Whenever I was cold, you knew just how to keep me warm
And you were my shelter in the middle of my storm
And whenever the mountains came crumbling down on me
There you were out of nowhere to lift me and set me free
And whenever I thought that I could not go any more
Girl, you came into my life and you opened up more doors
And now I don't have to look no more for women when it comes to love
‘Cause girl, you are a gift sent down to me from up above

Because
It's people like you
That make the world go round
It's people like you
That make the world go round

It's all I can find
Someone truly, truly real
A soul so divine
The love should not be based on color
Girl, take my hand
And tonight we’re gonna show the whole wide world how to dance

(Love is the truth. Lets show the world how to dance to that rhythm.)

Let it blow

(Love the trombone solo. Such a sucker for some good horn music in a song.)

You feel good, I feel good
So hot
We're gonna step around the world tonight and step into the light
It goes 1, 2, 3

(If you aren’t grooving to this song by this point then there is something wrong in your life.)

Step step step step to the side
Step to the left, and step to the right
Step step step step to the side
Step all night, and step to the light
Step step step step to the side
Step to the left, and step to the right
Step step step step to the side
Step all night, and step to the light

(I like the thought of stepping into the light. Lets brighten up this world!)

Step step step round and round
We gonna step all night to the funky sound
Step step round and round
We gonna step all night till the roof comes down
Step step round and round
We gonna step all night to the funky sound
Step step round and round
We gonna step all night till the roof comes down

Because
It's people like you
That make the world go round
Oh yes, it is
It's people like you
That make the world go round
Make it go round, and round, and round

(Yes, People like you.)

It's all I can find
Someone truly, truly real
A soul so divine
A love should not be based on color
Girl, take my hand
And tonight we’re gonna show the whole wide world how to dance

Party people
If you wanna keep the world going round and round now
Sing it now
Round and round, we go
Round and round, we go
Round and round, we go

(Thats right people lets keep this world going round and round.)

I hope that you enjoyed this song as much as I did or maybe you have another song that you have been listening to that does the same thing for you or maybe you have another avenue that inspires you. Regardless we got to keep the positivity going people. 


As always I send this to you with so much love and pure D-lite. = )
