Toto

What would you do if I sang out of tune
Would you stand up and walk out on me
Lend me your ears and I’ll sing you a song
I’ll try not to sing out of key

Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Ooh, ooh, ooh

What do I do when my love is away
(Does it worry you to be alone)
How do I feel by the end of the day
(Are you sad because you’re on your own)

Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Do you need anybody
I need somеone to love
Could it be anybody
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, I’ll gеt by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Could you believe in the love at first sight
Yes, I’m certain it happens all the time
What do you see when you turn off the light
I can’t tell you but I’m sure I feel nice

Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Ooh, ooh, ooh

Do you need anybody
Someone to love
Could it be anybody
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh, oh

Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
Yes, I’ll get high with a little help from my friends
I’m gonna try with a little help from my friends
Oh, I’ll get by with a little help from my friends
By with a little help from my friends, a little help from my friends

Toto is an American rock band formed in 1977 in Van Nuys in Los Angeles, California. The band’s current lineup consists of Joseph Williams (lead vocals), David Paich (keyboards, vocals), Steve Porcaro (keyboards), Steve Lukather (guitars, vocals), Shem von Schroeck (bass), and Shannon Forrest (drums). Toto is known for a musical style that combines elements of pop, rock, soul, funk, progressive rock, hard rock, R&B, blues, and jazz.

David Paich and Jeff Porcaro had played together as session musicians on several albums and decided to form a band. David Hungate, Steve Lukather, Steve Porcaro, and Bobby Kimball were recruited before their first album release. The band enjoyed great commercial success in the late 1970s and 1980s, beginning with the band’s eponymous debut released in 1978. With the release of the critically acclaimed and commercially successful Toto IV from 1982, Toto became one of the best-selling music groups of their era. They are best known for the Top 5 hits “Hold the Line”, “Rosanna”, and “Africa”. Several changes to the lineup have been made over the years. Hungate left in 1982 followed by Kimball in 1984 but rejoined the band in 1998 until 2008. Jeff Porcaro died in 1992 of a heart attack. Hungate rejoined Toto as a touring musician and later a band member. In 2008, Lukather announced his departure from the band, and the remaining band members later went their separate ways. In the summer of 2010, Toto reformed and went on a short European tour, with a new lineup, to benefit Mike Porcaro, who had been diagnosed with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and was no longer an active member of the band.

The band has released a total of 17 albums, and have sold over 40 million albums to date. The group was honored with several Grammy Awards and was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2009.
