Different Drum Medley
If you're looking for an exciting, over-the-top way to end your set with as much "showmanship" as humanly possible, you can't beat a marching band closer! This medley of two songs by Latina recording star Blanca starts at a moderate marching beat with "Different Drum" then dials up the tempo and intensity with dance hit "Not Backing Down". It features a full marching percussion section including tenorline, which play throughout the chart and are featured in the final dance break. March to the beat of a different drum and bring the house down with Different Drum Medley!

We are the colors outside of the lines And we paint a picture so one of a kind Attention We call attention Our mission Redirect attention So let’s break the mold Go off the wall Be in the world but not of it Against the grain Less of the same We’re walkin’ out what love is We’re gonna march to the beat of a different drum We do that left right left to our own rhythm And we’ll keep on movin’ ‘cause we’re not afraid to stand out We’re not a copy of the status quo We’re cut from the cloth of the original Attention Gotta get your attention All you need to try be is who you’re made to be So let’s break the mold Go off the wall Be in the world but not of it Against the grain Less of the same We’re walkin’ out what love is We’re gonna march to the beat of a different drum We do that left right left to our own rhythm And we’ll keep on movin’ ‘cause we’re not afraid to stand out I walk the line I stay out the way, yeah Never speak my mind Living in a shade of grey But the more I get to know me The more you start to show me This isn’t how it’s meant to be So I’ll just keep on walkin’ And you can keep on talkin’ Ima have to make a scene, yeah I played it safe Been afraid my whole life Now things have changed Won’t stay silent this time No, I’m not backing down No, you can’t count me out Nothing in this world gonna stop me now No, I’m not backing down No, I’m not backing down, down, down We’re gonna march to the beat of a different drum We do that left right left to our own rhythm And we’ll keep on movin’ ‘cause we’re not afraid And we’ll keep on movin’ ‘cause we’re not afraid And we’ll keep on movin’ ‘cause nothing's gonna stop us now!
