Ancient history
Ancient history is the aggregate of past events from the beginning of recorded human history and extending as far as the Early Middle Ages or the Postclassical Era. The span of recorded history is roughly 5,000 years, beginning with Sumerian Cuneiform script, the oldest discovered form of coherent writing from the protoliterate period around the 30th century BC.
The term classical antiquity is often used to refer to history in the Old World from the beginning of recorded Greek history in 776 BC (First Olympiad). This roughly coincides with the traditional date of the founding of Rome in 753 BC, the beginning of the history of ancient Rome, and the beginning of the Archaic period in Ancient Greece. Although the ending date of ancient history is disputed, some Western scholars use the fall of the Western Roman Empire in 476 AD (the most used), the closure of the Platonic Academy in 529 AD, the death of the emperor Justinian I in 565 AD, the coming of Islam or the rise of Charlemagne as the end of ancient and Classical European history.

World Radio
by: Leo SayerI am the voice
I am the radio
You hear me loud and clear
Across the open sky
Into the night
You hear me loud and clear
I was thinking you're a part of my mind
Breathing sleeping talking two of a kind
I'm the voice in your head
(do you read me)
The word you just said
(do you hear me)
Aah - the world goes spinning around
Aah - and you all join in with the sound
Aah - we sing with one voice
Like a world radio
Aah - we sing with one voice
Like a world radio
I feel the pain
I feel the joy and love
You hear it loud and clear
But should the music stop
I'll feel so low
I'll fade and disappear
I'm just thinking that we're two of a kind
Think I know what's going on in your mind
When the red light goes on
(can you tell me)
Is your green light still on
(do your hear me)
Aah - the world goes spinning around
Aah - and you all join in with the sound
Aah - we sing with one voice
We're a world radio
Aah - we sing with one voice
We're a world radio
The world goes spinning around
Aah - we all join in with the sound
Aah - we sing with one voice
Like a world radio
We join in with the sound
The world goes spinning, spinning around
Aah - we sing with one voice
We're a world radio
[Solo]
Aah - we sing with one voice
We're a world radio
Radio
Is the green light on
(can you tell me)
Don't put your red light on
(do you read me)
I know the green light's on
Don't put, don't put your red light on
