adv. (alternative spelling of a cappella English)

"Acapella" is a song performed by American recording artist Kelis, taken from her fifth studio album Flesh Tone (2010).

Kelis stated that she wrote the song "with love and life in my mind" and as a tribute to her son, Knight. It has received positive reviews from critics many of whom praise the song for its inspirational lyrics and for its uptempo feel-good vibe which includes angelic harmonies. The song was listed at #20 on the NME's best tracks of 2010, which they describe it "her most thrilling tune since ‘ Milkshake’".

"Acapella" is a song by American music duo Karmin. It was released on July 9, 2013 by Epic Records as the lead single from their debut studio album, Pulses (2014).

Acapella is an historic trimaran sailboat, designed and built by Walter Greene in 1978 and later renamed Olympus Photo.

Walter and his wife Joan raced in the 1978 Round Britain race, coming in 1st in class and 4th overall. Later that year, Canadian Mike Birch sailed Acapella (renamed Olympus Photo) to a first-place win in the first Route du Rhum trans-Atlantic race, establishing Walter's reputation as a multihull designer.
