Musicians, too.
Father sir, but do not be so harsh!
If I couldn't, three times a day,
be allowed to drink my little cup of coffee,
in my anguish I will turn into
a shriveled-up roast goat.
Ah! How sweet coffee tastes,
more delicious than a thousand kisses,
milder than muscatel wine.
Coffee, I have to have coffee,
and, if someone wants to pamper me,
ah, then bring me coffee as a gift!
-- from the Coffee Cantata, by Johann Sebastian Bach
- dsizzle 5y agoHa. Now that you mention this, it's kind of surprising there aren't that many references to coffee in modern music (at least nothing this rhapsodic comes to mind anyway). Maybe the stronger stuff is more inspiring in the pop era? https://open.spotify.com/track/6G3NoUqDpqD3Rgfel2pD6s https://open.spotify.com/track/6G3NoUqDpqD3Rgfel2pD6s

Nicht für Kinder ist der Türkentrank, Schwächt die Nerven, macht dich blass und krank, Sei doch kein Muselmann, der ihn nicht lassen kann. https://www.thelocal.de/20140516/enjoying-coffee-the-german-way/ https://www.thelocal.de/20140516/enjoying-coffee-the-german-... https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-a-f-f-e-e https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/C-a-f-f-e-e
- oatmale 5y agoMorning has broken Mr. Coffee has spoken The familiar wake-up call Sings to my ears I wake up with a shrug To the floor with a thud Where in this hellhole is my coffee mug? I can now face the day On legal speed (The American way) I'm sketching I'm seizing I'm spazing I'm shaking I can not stop spilling on my brand new shirt I-I-I'm wored I'm so inspired I drank the entire pot So off to work Here I come to save the day On legal speed (The American way) Drinking coffee I drink coffee Drinking coffee everyday https://open.spotify.com/track/4zDXcKIWCKWpPzeyOWhM6y?si=wJX5TNb2R5CZedu5XDabgg&context=spotify%3Asearch https://open.spotify.com/track/4zDXcKIWCKWpPzeyOWhM6y?si=wJX...
- sndman 5y agoCommonly sung in UU services: Coffee, Coffee, Coffee Sung to the tune of “Holy, Holy, Holy” ------------------------------------------------- Coffee, Coffee, Coffee, Praise the strength of coffee. Early in the morn we rise with thoughts of only thee. Served fresh or reheated, Dark by thee defeated, Brewed black by perk or drip or instantly. Though all else we scoff we Come to church for coffee; If we’re late to congregate, we come in time for thee. Coffee our one ritual, Drinking it habitual, Brewed black by perk or drip instantly. Coffee the communion Of our Uni-Union, Symbol of our sacred ground, our one necessity. Feel the holy power At our coffee hour, Brewed black by perk or drip or instantly.
