Tracy Chapman – The Artist

Tracy Chapman (born March 30, 1964) is an American singer-songwriter, known for her hits “Fast Car” and “Give Me One Reason”, along with other singles “Talkin’ ’bout a Revolution”, “Baby Can I Hold You”, “Crossroads”, “New Beginning”, and “Telling Stories”. She has sold millions of records worldwide and won numerous awards.

Fast Car – The Song

“Fast Car” is a song written and recorded by American singer Tracy Chapman. It was released in 1988 as the lead single from her 1988 self-titled debut studio album. Her appearance on the Nelson Mandela 70th Birthday Tribute was the catalyst for the song’s becoming a top-ten hit in the United States. In the United Kingdom, it peaked at number four on the UK Singles Chart. “Fast Car” received two Grammy nominations for Record of the Year and Song of the Year, as well as a MTV Video Music Award nomination for Best Female Video in 1989. The song tells the story of a working poor woman trying to escape the cycle of poverty.

The Morgan Sports Car – The Shape

This record has been modelled into a two seater, soft top, Morgan Sports Car. The Morgan sports car is made by The Morgan Motor Company a British motor car manufacturer, owned by the Italian Invest-industrial since March of 2019. It was founded in 1910 by Henry Frederick Stanley Morgan. Morgan is based in Malvern Link, an area of Malvern, Worcestershire, and employs approximately 220 people. Morgan only produces approximately 850 cars per year, all assembled by hand. The waiting list for a car is approximately six months, and has sometimes been as long as ten years. Morgan cars are unusual because wood has been used in their construction for a century, and is still used in the 21st century for framing the body shell.
