Ben Lee ~ Grammercy Park Hotel


It's 3 am in new york Sometime in 1995 The other half of the world The other side It might have been warm outside, maybe cold Who could tell? Three of us stumbled into room 421 At the grammercy park hotel It's 3 am in new york We sat for a while We started to talk We started to smile Then he played a song i knew very well 3 am in new york At the grammercy park hotel He passed the guitar around Over and over and over again Till one of us broke a string It was probably him But the songs came out strong They were loud, they were long There were songs about girls, about boys Sung a lot, screamed a lot We made lots of noise It's 3 am in new york It's the time of my life Minstrels and maidens and heartbroken songs Made me cry And we were anonymous, androgynous Bearers of truth And the indie rock columnists would have freaked out If they knew It's 3 am in new york And i knew we were right We were young, not so young And in love with our lives 3 am in new york I went back to bed Three lone true prophets With songs in our heads It's 3 am in new york And i just felt god Lying awake in the dark I was in awe And i know in reality It might not be true But for three of us here in new york It's all we could do I know it's just songs, played on guitars It's not rocket science, flying to mars And i know it's not much, but it's all that i have To be sure that i'm real Again and again And if there comes a day When my fingers don't work Or my voice loses sound Gives me grief, gives me hurt Well, i swear on that day When i lose what's worthwhile From that day forth i never shall smile It's 3 am in new york I feel fine, i feel well Sound asleep At the grammercy park hotel more free lyrics

It's 3 am in new york
Sometime in 1995
The other half of the world
The other side

It might have been warm outside, maybe cold
Who could tell?
Three of us stumbled into room 421
At the grammercy park hotel

It's 3 am in new york
We sat for a while
We started to talk
We started to smile

Then he played a song i knew very well
3 am in new york
At the grammercy park hotel

He passed the guitar around
Over and over and over again
Till one of us broke a string
It was probably him

But the songs came out strong
They were loud, they were long
There were songs about girls, about boys
Sung a lot, screamed a lot
We made lots of noise

It's 3 am in new york
It's the time of my life
Minstrels and maidens and heartbroken songs
Made me cry

And we were anonymous, androgynous
Bearers of truth
And the indie rock columnists would have freaked out
If they knew

It's 3 am in new york
And i knew we were right
We were young, not so young
And in love with our lives

3 am in new york
I went back to bed
Three lone true prophets
With songs in our heads

It's 3 am in new york
And i just felt god
Lying awake in the dark
I was in awe

And i know in reality
It might not be true
But for three of us here in new york
It's all we could do

I know it's just songs, played on guitars
It's not rocket science, flying to mars
And i know it's not much, but it's all that i have
To be sure that i'm real
Again and again

And if there comes a day
When my fingers don't work
Or my voice loses sound
Gives me grief, gives me hurt
Well, i swear on that day
When i lose what's worthwhile
From that day forth i never shall smile

It's 3 am in new york
I feel fine, i feel well
Sound asleep
At the grammercy park hotel

Globalized Sounds

Today, beautiful European and American music, an Afrobeats recorded in Lagos, can play in headphones in Tokyo; a South Korean idol group can fill an Argentine stadium to capacity. On Spotify, the playback volume of African music has increased by 500% in five years; K-pop has already transcended the Asian border and become a common language for young people all over the world; Latin music has consistently topped the streaming charts for several consecutive years. The world is getting smaller while the scope of music is expanding.

The Power of the Scene

When the lights dim and the first note is played, strangers become synchronized. The tremor when thousands sing together, and the melody that still echoes after the crowd disperses - this is an experience that no screen can convey. We look forward to the return of large-scale concerts to the essence of music, and we also look forward to small livehouses continuing to nourish the most vibrant soil of music.

Crossing Borders

Music transcends languages - even if you don't understand the lyrics, you can still shed tears or dance. It transcends cultures - the drumbeats of Nigeria and the chants of Iceland coexist under the same sky. It transcends generations - a song from half a century ago can still bring tears to the eyes of today's young people.

We Create Together

The future of global music is not determined by algorithms, nor is it monopolized by a few giants. It is shaped by every person who presses the play button. Maintain your curiosity, step out of your comfort zone. Support independent musicians and attend live performances. Seek connections through music - because we believe that a song can change a day, and music can change the world.
