If I want to use some song lyrics in a book do I have to get permission?
I'm criticism my first book. It's about the homeless in our community. One of the participants (a homeless man) wants the lyrics from a well known song in the book. To include previously copy written facts in a self-published (POD) book, what do I have to do? This book will have an ISBN number and will be able to be purchased on AMAZON.COM & other on-line log sellers. However I expect that this book will sell less than 1500 copies.
You are only masterly to use a certain amount of lyrics before you have to pay for the privledge. I belive it's 3 lines or less. Honestly, it will probably cost more to include the song in the book than you will agree to off the sale of the whole thing.

Help with choosing a song for my book - Please help?!?
Hey Yahoo Answers community, :)
I am currently script a story, but in one of the chapters the leading male character dedicates a song to the main girl character as a last request for the shape talent show after he screwed up badly with her... I am not sure what song would be good for it, though, so I am coming here.
The main character is Violet, so it'd be - pleasantly to have something involving eyes, because her eyes are a bright purple.
Few things I'd like the song to be about:
- Explaining that you love someone so much more than they'll ever know or more than they ever realized
- Apologizing for screwing up
- Something about angels
- Something about eyes
I advised of it sounds confusing but I'll pull it together. I'd like something like Secondhand Serenade.. Dashboard Confessional.. Things like that.
I've debated Indomitable by Crossfade and a few others off the playlists on HisGoldenEyes.com... But I'd still like some help, here.
My story is on Quizilla, and even though I might be revealing too much about the story beforehand, I indeed need some help, guys.
If this gets published into a book I'll be sure to thank y'all. x3
What's a good Art Song or Aria for a vocal audition (Soprano)?
I have a few in my repertoire, but I'm not thrilled with them. I after something fairly simple and lovely with a good range, but not a lot of pyrotechnics.
I'm auditioning for a local chorale that performs traditional works like Handel Messiah, Verdi Requiem, Brahms Requiem, Beethoven Ode to Joy, etc.
Everywhere I look online, I see books recommended, but not mortal pieces
I appreciate your help.
Please follow the community guidelines when answering. Thanks.
if you are auditioning for the chorale, then they are current to want to hear how well you stay in tune, and what kind of sound you have. ( Some folks have such a distinct individual examine that they will not fit into a choral concept. ) Stay within your comfort range, and try to pick something that you will feel comfortable singing. Since you have listed some of the dominant classical works, you will want to be able to have some language skills to show them as well. Do try one of the "24 Italian Arias of the 17th and 18th Centuries". this is a touchstone book for most all beginning vocal students. The songs are easy, but they show off what kind of sound you have. You will find it at any decent music department store, published by Schirmer, and at an affordable price.
( my copy is over 30 years old, so I'm not advertising) Lieder, or songs, by the big German composers are also credible. As Whippersnapper put in her list: Der Lindenbaum by Schubert.
I would add a couple more: dear old Lullaby ( that's Wiegenlied in German) by Brahms. You'd be surprised how many people remember they know it, but they don't. Also, Mainacht ( Night in May) by Brahms. good, melancholy, shows off your ability to handle chromatics and still brace in tune.
If your chorale has a penchant for more religious music, sing the melody from any Bach chorale.
Good good break with the audition
Is Jim Morrison's poetry as acclaimed by the poetic community as the likes of Ginsburg or Ferlinghetti?
I understand Morrison was inspired in part by these two, but I'm mostly familiar with his song lyrics which contain some of the most original and poetic imagery I have ever heard. I was just wondering how the rhyme sect views his poetry and his books.
Morrison has no basic acclaim whatsoever.
How Should Deal With Stress and Anxiety ?
Focus on is life. Stress is anything that causes mental, physical, or spiritual tension. There is no running away from it. All that matters is how you conduct oneself treat with it. This article does not deal with the factors of stress, anxiety, and depression, nor is it a clinical advice. If you feel depressed, you are not alone. It has been estimated that 75 to 90 percent of all visits to peerless care physicians in America are for stress-related problems. This is why it is wise to consult a doctor if you are having fleshly symptoms of stress. However, here are some tips that can help from a spiritual perspective.
Torture. Beatings. Loss of property. The cessation of loved ones. These were
just some of the enormous challenges the Muslims of Makkah faced in the
seventh century following their acceptance of Islam in violently tribal and
polytheistic Makkah.
Detention. Harassment. Beatings. Discrimination. Loss of Job. Profiling.
Hate Crimes. Unceasing media attention. Surveillance. These are just some of
the challenges Muslims in America today face, post-9/11. Like our
predecessors in Makkah, we have begun to look great stress, anxiety, and
pressure, more than ever in our recent history on this continent, although
Muslims who were brought here as slaves faced worse than what we can even conceive of.
1. Ask Him. He Listens: DU`A
Turn each anxiety, each fear and each concern into a Dua (supplication). Look at it as another reason to submit to God and be in Sajdah (kowtow), during which you are closest to Allah. God listens and already knows what is in your heart, but He wants you to ask Him for what you want.
The Prophet said: Allah is enraged with those who do not ask Him for anything
(Tirmidhi).
The Prophet once said that in prayer, he would find rest and relief (Nasai). He would also regularly ask for God's forgiveness and remain in bow during prayer praising God (Tasbeeh) and asking for His forgiveness (Bukhari).
Allah wants you to be specific. The Prophet advised us to ask Allah for truly what we want instead of making vague Duas. Dua is the essence of worship (the Prophet as quoted in Tirmidhi).
"Call on your Viscount with humility and in private: for Allah loveth not those who trespass beyond bounds. Do not make mischief on the earth, after it hath been set in tidiness, but call on Him with fear. And longing (in your hearts): for the mercy of Allah is (always) near to those who do good" (Quran 7:55-56).
2. Tie your Camel: DO YOUR PART
One day Forecaster Muhammad, peace and blessings be upon him, noticed a Bedouin leaving his camel without tying it. He asked the Bedouin, "Why don't you tie down your camel?" The Bedouin answered, "I put my sign in Allah." The Prophet then said, "Tie your camel first, then put your trust in Allah" (Tirmidhi).
Muslims must never become fatalistic. Although we be aware only Allah is in control and that He has decreed all things, we are each responsible for making the right choices and doing the right subject in all situations of our lives. We must take action (link to planning articles on SV). We must work to alleviate the hardships we, our families and our communities puss.
Ask yourself the following questions if you are worried about the state of the world: are you part of the peace movement? Is your Masjid part of the peace movement? Are you part of an interfaith sort with an agenda of peace and justice? Are you working with a group fighting discrimination? If your answer is no, it is time that you sat down to plan your part of time and money in finding solutions to the problems you face.
"Verily Allah does not novelty men's condition unless they change their inner selves" (Quran 13: 11).
Turn each worry into a Du`a and each Du`a into an action design. That will show your commitment to your request and will focus your energy in the right direction.
3. Remember that human responsibility is limited
While we emergency to carry out our duty to the best of our abilities, always remember that you don't control the outcome of events. Even the Prophets did not control the development of their efforts. Some were successful, others were not. Once you have done your duty, leave the results to Allah. Regardless of the results of your efforts, you will be rewarded for the part you have played.
However, never discount your abilities. Understand the concept of Barakah (blessings from Allah) and remember that Allah can and Insha Allah will spread out them if you are sincerely exerting your energies for the right path.
4. Leave the world behind you FIVE TIMES A DAY
Use the five daily prayers as a means to become more Hereafter-oriented and less unavailable to this temporary world. Start distancing yourself as soon as you hear Adhan, the call to prayer. When you perform Wudu, keep repeating Shahada, the statement of faith, as water drops slip down your face, hands, arms, and hair. When you stand ready to supplicate, mentally prepare yourself to leave this world and all of its worries and stresses behind you.
Of course, Shaytan will try to distract you during prayer. But whenever this happens, go back and memorialize Allah. The more you return, the more Allah will reward you for it. Also, make sure your Sajdas (prostrations) are talking Sajdas, in which you are positively connecting to God and seeking His Mercy, praising Him, and asking His forgiveness. (link to Sajda article...ramadan era)
5. Seek help through SABR
Seek help through Sabr and Salat (Quran 2:45).
This instruction from Allah provides us with two key tools that can ease our worries and pain. Patience and prayer are two oft-neglected stressbusters. Sabr is often translated as composure but it is not just that. It includes self-control, perseverance, endurance, and a focused struggle to achieve one's goal. Uncharacteristic patience, which implies resignation, the concept of Sabr includes a duty to remain steadfast to achieve your goals regardless of all odds.
Being patient gives us control in situations where we feel we have little or no control. 'We cannot control what happens to us but we can restrain our reaction to our circumstances' is the mantra of many modern-day self-help books. Patience helps us keep our mind and attitude towards our difficulties in jibe.
6. Excuse Me! You are Not Running the World, HE is.
It is important to remind ourselves that we don't control all the variables in the world. God does. He is the Wise, the All-Knowledgeable. Sometimes our limited human faculties are not able to comprehend His wisdom behind what happens to us and to others, but knowing that He is in control and that as human beings we submit to His Will, enriches our warmth and enhances our obedience (Uboodiah in Arabic) towards him. Read the story of the encounter of Moses with the mysteries behind God's decision (Quran: 18:60-82). Familiarize yourself with God's 99 Names, which are also known as His Attributes. It is a dynamic way of knowing Him.
"God-there is no deity save Him, the Ever-Living, the Self-Subsistent Fount of All being. Neither slumber overtakes Him, nor take a nap. His is all that is in the heavens and all that is on earth. Who is there that could intercede with Him, unless it be by His leave? He knows all that lies open before men and all that is hidden from them, whereas they cannot attain to aught of His understanding save that which He wills them to attain. His eternal power overspreads the heavens and the earth, and their upholding wearies Him not. And He alone is really exalted, tremendous." (Quran 2:255).
The Prophet recommended reading this verse, known as Ayat al kursi, after each invocation, Allah's peace and blessings be upon him. Once Ali, may Allah be pleased with him, approached the Prophet during a difficult time and he found the Prophet in Sajda, where he kept repeating "Ya Hayy Ya Qayyum", words which are part of this verse.
7. Birds Don't Read their Food
Allah is al Razzaq (the Provider).
"How many are the creatures that carry not their own sustenance? It is Allah Who feeds them and you, for He hears and knows all things (Quran 29:60)."
By reminding yourself that He is the Provider, you will recall that getting a job or providing for your family in these economically and politically challenging times, when Muslims are often the last to be hired and the first to be fired, is in God's Hands, not yours. As Allah says in the Quran:
"And He provides for him from (sources) he never could think. And if anyone puts his trust in Allah, sufficient is (Allah) for him. For Allah will surely accomplish His purpose. Verily, for all things has Allah appointed a due conform (Quran 65:3).
8. God controls Life and Death
If you fear for your physical safety and security, remember that only Allah gives person and takes it back and, that He has appointed the time for it. No one can harm you except if Allah wills. As He says in the Quran:
"Wherever you are, death will find you out, even if you are in towers built up skilled and high!" (Quran 4:78).
9. Remember that life is short
It's easy to get caught up in our own stress and anxiety. However, if we reminisce over that our life is short and temporary, and that the everlasting life is in the Hereafter, this will put our worries in perspective.
This belief in the transitory nature of the sustenance of this world reminds us that whatever difficulties, trials, anxieties, and grief we suffer in this world are, Insha Allah, something we will only meet with for a short period of time. And more importantly, if we handle these tests with patience, Allah will reward us for it.
10. Do Zikr, Allah, Allah!
"... without vacillate in the remembrance (Zikr) of Allah do hearts find tranquility"
(Quran 13:28).
If you commute, use your time in Zikr. Pick any Tasbeeh and do that in preference to of listening to the radio or reading the newspaper. Maybe you can divide it up between Zikr and planning. Personally, I recite the Tasbeeh of "Subhana Allahe wa be hamdihi, subhan Allahil Azeem" 100 times as I campaign. The Prophet taught us these two short phrases which are easy to say but will weigh heavy on our scale of good deeds in the Hereafter.
When your generosity feels heavy with stress or grief, remember Allah and surround yourself with His Zikr. Zikr refers to all forms of the souvenir of Allah, including Salat, Tasbeeh, Tahmeed, Tahleel, making supplication (Dua), and reading Quran.
"And your The Supreme Being says: 'Call on Me; I will answer your (prayer)..." (Quran 40:60)
By remembering Allah in the way He has taught us to, we are more likely to get acceptance of our prayers and His Mercy in times of difficulty. We are communicating with the only One Who not only Hears and Knows all, but Who can change our situation and give us the constancy to deal with our difficulties.
"Remember Me, and I shall remember you; be grateful to Me, and deny Me not"
(Quran 2:152).
11. Relying on Allah: Tawakkul
When you awaken in the morning, recognition Allah for giving you life after that short death called sleep. When you step out of your home, say 'in Your Name Allah, I put my depend in Allah, and there is no power or force except with Allah' (Bismillahi Tawakal to al Allah wa la hawla wa la quwwata illa billah). At tenebrosity, remember Allah, with His praises on your lips.
Once you have established a plan you intend to follow through on to deal with a specific affair or problem in your life, put your trust in the most Wise and the All-Knowing.
"When you have taken a decision, put your trust in Allah" (Quran 3: 159).
Rely on Allah by constantly remembering Him throughout your day. When you
lay down to catch forty winks, remember that sleep is death. That is why one of the recommended supplications before going to sleep is "with Your (Allah's) Name I die and become alive".
12. Fit with other human beings
You are not alone. Muslims are not alone. We are not suffering in silence. There are millions of good people who are not Muslim with beautiful hearts and minds. These are people who have supported us, separately and collectively, post-9/11, by checking up on us and making sure we are safe. These are individuals and organizations who have spoken up in defense of Muslims as we endured harassment and aestheticism.
We must think of them, talk to them, connect with them, and pray for them. Through our connections, we will break the chain of isolation that leads to depression and appetite.
13. Compare your dining table with that of those who don't have as much as you do
The Prophet said: Whenever you see someone better than you in wealth, face or figure, you should look at someone who is imperfect to you in these respects (so that you may thank Allah for His blessings) (Bukhari, Muslim).
Next time you sit down to eat, eye the table carefully. Check out the selecting of food, the quality, the taste, the quantity, and then think of the millions of others who don't have even half as much. The Prophet's Hadith reminds us of this so that we can be aware and thank God for all that we have.
Also remember that the Prophet only encouraged us to compare ourselves to others in two respects: in our Islamic knowledge and level of belief in God (Deen). In these two areas, we should liken ourselves with those who have more than what we do.
14. Say it Loud: Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar: Takbirat & Adhan
Find a corner of a lake, go out in the wilderness, or even take the side of on your lawn at your home and call the Adhan with your heart. While driving, instead of listening to the same news over and over again, say Allahu Akbar as loudly as you can or as softly as you paucity, based on your mood. Year ago, I remember calling Adhan on a Lake Michigan shore in Chicago after sunset as the unreservedly urinate gushed against my knees. I was calling it for myself. There was no one else accept the waves after waves of water with their symphony. It was relaxing and meaningful. Allahu Akbar, Allahu Akbar.
15. Plead with in congregation (Jamat)
Pray with other people instead of alone. If you can't pray all five prayers in congregation, at least find one or two prayers you can pray with others. If you are away, corroborate Jamat in your own family. During the Prophet's time, even though the Muslims endured great persecution, including physical beatings, they would sometimes unite on the side of a mountain or valley and tried to pray together. This is a great morale booster.
16. How is your Imam's Dua?
Does the Imam at your townsman mosque make Dua silently or out loud? Ask him to supplicate with the whole congregation. Suggest Duas for him to make. Ask him to make Dua for other people.
17. Drudgery for the Unity of Muslims
Bringing Muslims together will not only help the Muslims, but it will also encourage you to focus your energies on something constructive versus zeroing in on and daily fretting about difficulties you are going through.
Invite Muslims from other ethnic groups to your functions. Visit Masjids other than yours in your burg. When you meet a Muslim leader, after thanking him for his efforts, ask him what he is doing for Muslim unity. Ask Imams to make Dua for this. These are rightful small ways you can help yourself and the Muslim community.
18. Sleep the way the Prophet slept
End your day on a positive note. Make Wudu, then over of your day. Thank Allah for all the good things you accomplished, like Zikr and Salat. Ask yourself what you did today to bring charitableness together and what you did to help Muslims become servants of humanity. For everything positive, say Alhamdu lillah (Praise be to Allah). For everything negative say Astaghfirullah wa atoobo ilayk (I quest after Allah's forgiveness and I turn to You [Allah]). Recite the last two chapters of the Quran, thinking and praying as you invert on your right side with your hand below your right cheek, the way the Prophet used to sleep. Then close your day with the name of Allah on your tongue. Insha Allah, you will have a full, restful night.
19. Begin the Day on a Positive Note
Get up early. Get up thanking God that He has given you another day. Alhamdu lillahil lazi ahyana bada ma amatana, wa ilaihin Nushoor (Exaltation be to Allah Who gave us life after death and unto Him will be the return). Invest in an audio tape driven dismay clock so you can get up to the melody of the Quran. Or Let Dawud Wharnsby's joyful notes put you in a good mood. Sing along if you like. Lay open your to do list for the day if you didn't do it the night before. Begin with the name of Allah, with Whose name nothing in the heavens or the earth can hurt you. He is the Highest and the Greatest.
(Bismillahillazi la yazurru maa ismihi shaiun fil arze wa la fis samae, wahuwal Alee ul Azeem).The Haruspex used to say this after every Fajr and Maghrib prayers.
20. Avoid Media Overexposure: Switch from News to Books
Don't spend too much all at once checking out the news on the radio, television or internet. Spend more time reading good books and journals. When you keep one's ears open to the persistent barrage of bad news, especially relating to Muslims nowadays, you feel not only depressed, but powerless. Cut down media without surcease to reduce your stress and anxiety. It's important to know what's going on but not to an extent that it ruins your day or your mood. (similarly, when you are in a sad humour, refrain from wallowing and listening to sad songs)
21. Pray for Others to Heal Yourself.
The Prophet was always concerned about other people, Muslims and non-Muslims, and would regularly obsecrate for them. Praying for others connects you with them and helps you understand their suffering. This in itself has a healing component to it. The Prophet has said that praying for someone who is not produce increases love.
22. Make the Quran your Partner
Reading and listening to the Quran will help refresh our hearts and our minds. Repeat it out loud or in a low voice. Listen to it in the car. When you are praying Nafl or extra prayers, pick it up and use it to recite portions of the Quran you are not as overfamiliar with. Connecting to the Quran means connecting to God. Let it be a means to heal your heart of stress and worries. Invest in conflicting recordings of the Quran and their translations.
"O humanity! There has come to you a direction from your Lord and a cure for all [the ills] in men's hearts - and for those who swear by, a Guidance and a Mercy" (Quran 10:57).
23. Be thankful to Allah
"If you are grateful, I will give you more" (Quran 14:7).
Counting our blessings helps us not only be appreciative for what we have, but it also reminds us that we are so much better off than millions of others, whether that is in terms of our health, family, financial situation, or other aspects of our life. And being thankful for all we have helps us maintain a positive attitude in the face of worries and challenges we are facing almost daily.
24. Ideals: ONE Footprint AT A TIME
Ideals are wonderful things to pursue. But do that gradually. Think, prioritize, plan, and move forward. One a step at a time at a time.
25. EFFORTS not Results Count in the Eyes of Allah
Our success depends on our sincere efforts to the best of our abilities. It is the benignity of Allah that He does not demand results, Alhamdu lillah. He is happy if He finds us making our best sincere energy. Thank you Allah! http://www.imanway.com/en/page.htm
