    Tengo Que Parar
    Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
    Performer(s): Miguel Mateos



    (Me encanta cantar este tema)
    Como un estúpido bajo la lluvia
    corriendo taxis sin saber qué hacer
    nadie tiene fuego, ni siquiera un cospel
    Necesito hacer esa llamada
    necesito un poco de control
    La cosa viene mal, la tengo que parar

    Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
    ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!

    Alguien me sigue, doy vuelta en la esquina
    hay sueños que no puedo borrar
    veo un negrito con un diccionario
    que le cura las heridas
    con la lengua a un millonario
    Veo misiles en la 9 de Julio
    apuntándole a mi oso peluche
    Lo veo a Reagan, Jimi Hendrix y Evita
    en una mesa del Sheraton
    deshojando margaritas

    Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
    ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!

    Uno, dos y tres; uno, dos y tres
    desnudo en el espejo
    me miro una vez, me miro otra vez
    y no descubro nunca quién es
    ¿Quién soy? ¿Quién es? ¿Quién soy? ¿Quizás?

    Me desperté con la TV al mango
    sin cigarrillos, ni pastillas, ni alcohol
    quiero café con leche
    nena no me eches

    Esta noche incendiaré mi auto
    tendrás que darme refugio
    nadie sabrá dónde estamos
    será señal que paramos

    Tengo que parar, tengo que parar
    ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que! ¡Tengo que parar!

    Todo va mejor, todo va mejor
    con un poco de amor
    todo va mejor, todo va mejor
    con un poquito así, así de amor
    Amor...! amor...!
    I love you...
    Ti voglio bene...
    Je t'aime...
    Amor...!
    I love you... oh! oh!
    She loves you ¡Yea, yea, yea!
    All you need is love

    Tengo que parar
    y tengo que empezarte a amar

    Grazie Perché
    Composer(s): Sergio Bardotti;
    Marc Giacomelli; Bob Seger
    Performer(s): Gianni Morandi



    Grazie perché
    mi eri vicina
    ancora prima di essere mia
    e perché vuoi
    un uomo amico
    non uno scudo
    vicino a te
    grazie che vai
    per la tua strada
    piena di sassi come la mia
    grazie perché
    anche lontano
    tendo la mano
    e trovo la tua
    Io come te
    vivo confusa
    favole rosa...
    non chiedo più
    Grazie perché
    mi hai fatto sentire
    che posso anch'io volare
    senza di te
    io mi riposo
    dentro i tuoi occhi
    io coi tuoi occhi
    vedo di più
    grazie perché
    anche lontano
    tendo la mano
    e trovo la tua
    con te ogni volta
    e' la prima volta
    non ho paura vicino a te
    Grazie perché
    non siamo soli
    non siamo soli
    grazie perché
    vivere ancora
    non fa paura
    solo con te
    grazie perché
    oh oh oh oh
    anche lontano...
    tendo la mano
    e trovo la tua
    tendo la mano
    e tu ci sei...

    My One And Only Love
    Composer(s): Robert Mellin; Guy Wood
    Performer(s): Frank Sinatra



    The very thought of you makes my heart sing
    Like an April breeze on the wings of spring
    And you appear in all your splendor
    My one and only love

    The shadows fall and spread their mystic charms
    In the hush of night while you’re in my arms
    I feel your lips so warm and tender
    My one and only love

    The touch of your hand is like heaven
    A heaven that I’ve never known
    The blush on your cheek whenever I speak
    Tells me that you are my own

    You fill my aching heart with such desire
    Every kiss sets my soul on fire
    I give myself in sweet surrender
    My one and only love

    Gray Morn
    Composer(s): George O'Neil;
    J. Morris Ward; Clinton Standish



    Slowly the shadows fail
    slowly a silver veil floats above the hills and a robin trills

    Lighter the heaven glows
    brighter the morning's rose thru'
    the failing gloom trembles into bloom

    Gray morn has come and the sun is ascending but in the robin's
    song of glad notes, sad notes blending, tell of a longing, and
    hope never ending echo my heart that is still, Gray Morn

    Tengo Miedo De Volver
    Performer(s): Fernando Ubiergo



    Su sensación, su calidez
    su corazón, mi palidez
    Sólo una vez se puede amar
    como esa vez
    Sólo una vez, cerca del mar

    Su sensación, mi soledad
    su corazón, mi vanidad
    No sé qué fue, no sé
    lo que pasó
    ahora yo vuelvo a ese lugar
    con temor
    de no sentirte una vez más
    una vez más, cerca del mar
    una vez más
    Tal vez, pueda entender
    que nuestro amor, fue sólo el mar

    La sensación al regresar
    Ese temor de no encontrar
    su corazón, su voz, su claridad
    un beso suyo junto al mar
    Su sensación, su calidez
    su corazón, mi palidez
    No sé qué fue, no sé, lo que pasó
    ahora yo vuelvo a ese lugar
    con temor
    de no sentirte una vez más
    una vez más, cerca del mar
    una vez más
    Tal vez pueda entender
    que nuestro amor
    fue sólo el mar

    Composer(s): Harry Warren; Ira Gershwin
    Performer(s): Fred Astaire & Ginger Rogers
    and various other artists



    Fred:
    Though we're called a people of serious mind
    'Tis often we dance, 'tis often we sing

    Ginger:
    And bein' as human as all human-kind
    We arrren't superior to havin' a fling

    Fred:
    I'm taking the fling of a lifetime

    Ginger:
    The fling of a husband and wife-time

    Fred:
    A-when I a-went rrromancing
    I a-gave no thought to any wedding rrring
    Every bonnie lassie was
    My highland fling

    A-no chance was I chancing
    I' a-m not the man ya dangle on a strrring
    I was canny waitin' for the
    Rrreal, rrreal thing

    A-though I danced each girrrl in a twist and a-twirrrl
    Ney one would do
    And I went a-my way 'til the fatal day
    In the fling I was flung a-with you
    Ohhhh....

    Now my hearrrt is prancin'
    A-gay as a larrrk and happy as a king
    The yearrrs I'll weatherrr, in the hame on the heatherrr
    With my one and only highland fling

    I thought you werrre fallin' for Andy MacPherson

    Ginger:
    Ney, ney. He became an impossible person
    But what about you and that Connie MacKenzie?

    Fred:
    She talked when I putted and drrrove me to frenzie
    But what of the lad known as Bobby MacDougal?

    Ginger:
    It pays to be thrifty, but he was too frugal
    And werrren't ya daft about Megan McDerrmot?

    Fred:
    I tasted her cooking
    T'would make me a hermit
    How jealous I was of McDonald McCutcheon

    Ginger:
    His neck had a head on, but therrre wasn't much in

    Fred:
    And what about Sandy?

    Ginger:
    His hands were too handy
    And wasn't therrre a Jenny?

    Fred:
    I'm not wantin' any...
    I'm not wantin' any but you

    Ginger:
    When I went a-dancin'
    No special lad I was encourrragin'
    Every lackly laddie was
    My highland fling

    No glance I was glancin'
    Well, nothin' rrreally worth a-mentionin'
    Hopin', watchin', waitin' for the
    Rrreal, rrreal thing

    Though they spoke me soft in the moonlit oft'
    Ney one would do
    'Til it came to pass to this lucky lass
    In a fling I was flung with you
    Ohhh....

    Now my hearrrt is prrrancin'
    Nothin' about ya I'd be alterin'
    The yearrrs I'll weatherrr, in the hame on the heatherrr
    With me one and only highland fling

    Pretty mamma’s in the kitchen this glorious day
    Smell the gravy simmerin’ nearly half a mile away
    Lady morning glory, I say good morning to you
    Chirpy little chickadee told me that my baby was true

    Well, she really ran to get her frying pan
    When she saw me coming
    Gonna get a taste before it goes to waste
    This honeybee’s humming
    Mister Weeping Willow, I’m through with all of my faults
    ‘cause my baby’s ready to do the ever new gravy waltz

    Well, she really ran to get her frying pan

    I’m gonna get a taste before it goes to waste
    This honeybee’s humming
    Mister Weeping Willow, I’m through with all of my faults
    ‘cause my baby’s ready to do the ever new gravy waltz

    Mr Weeping Willow, I’m through with all of my faults

    Tengo los pies de viento
    y el corazón de cielo
    para andar los caminos
    por donde va mi pueblo
    Mil cosas me detienen
    pero otras mil me empujan
    y elevo mi guitarra
    llena de primaveras
    para cantar con ella
    las coplas de mi gente
    Cómo explicarte a ti
    Antonia Jesús Heredia
    cómo explicarte a ti
    a ti madre querida
    si eres pura simpleza
    simple como mi pueblo
    sangre de mi semilla
    Que tengo pies de viento
    y corazón de cielo
    para andar los caminos
    por donde va mi pueblo
    Cómo explicarte a ti
    mi padre querido amigo
    cómo explicarte a ti
    lo que siento y escucho
    cómo explicarte a ti
    si eres lo que yo canto
    lo que me duele y grito
    sangre de mi semilla
    Que tengo pies de viento
    y corazón de cielo
    para andar los caminos
    por donde va mi pueblo
    Cómo explicarte a ti
    mi dulce compañera
    cómo explicarte a ti
    si tú ya me conoces
    cómo explicarte a ti
    si eres la luz del día
    donde ilumino el canto
    sangre de mi semilla
    Que tengo pies de viento
    y corazón de cielo
    para andar los caminos
    por donde va mi pueblo
    por donde va mi pueblo
    mi pueblo, mi pueblo, mi pueblo...

    Performer(s): Fred Astaire
    and various other artists



    My one and only
    What am I gonna do if you turn me down
    When I'm so crazy over you

    I'd be so lonely
    Where am I gonna go if you turn me down
    Why blacken all my skies of blue

    I tell you I'm not asking any miracle
    It can be done, it can be done
    I know a clergyman who will roll lyrical
    And make us one, and make us one

    So my one and only
    There isn't a reason why you should turn me down
    When I'm so crazy over you

    To show affection in your direction
    You know I'm fit and able
    I more then merely love you sincerely
    My cards are on the table

    Say there must be lots of other men you hypnotise
    All of a sudden I've begun to realise
    As follows....

    My one and only
    ...if you turn me down
    When I'm so crazy over you
    I'd be so lonely
    ...if you turn me down
    Why blacken all my skies of blue

    I tell you I'm not asking any miracle
    I know a clergyman who will roll lyrical

    Oh my one and only
    ...if you turn me down
    When I'm so crazy over you

    Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo



    Pour une fois je m'étais décidé à semer mes principes
    Pour une fois je m'étais écrié ce soir je m'émancipe
    Très sûr de moi j'avais mes beaux souliers j'suis entré dans la danse
    Y avait pas d'quoi être maître de ballet pour garder la cadence

    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je suis plein d'idées folles
    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je prends la parole

    Là devant moi y avait une de ces filles comme on colle aux affiches
    Au fond de moi y avait comme un génie qui me criait: chiche!
    Et c'est ainsi que bravant la fumée je lui lance une œillade
    Je suis verni car la belle subjuguée tombe dans l'embuscade

    Crénom de nom! fallait-il que je l'aime pour suer de la sorte
    Sacré démon qui faisait rimer je t'aime avec va vers la porte

    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je suis plein d'idées folles
    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je prends la parole

    Il est trois heures je suis seul dans mon coin garçon encore un, vite!
    Ayez bon cœur ce n'est si bien je veux vivre la suite
    Remontez donc cette fichue machine à fabriquer les rêves
    J'ai d'quoi payer, je travaille à l'usine encore un et j'me lève

    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je suis plein d'idées folles
    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je prends la parole
    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je suis plein d'idées folles
    Tenez-vous bien les poupées car ce soir je prends la parole...

    Won’t You
    Won’t you be my one and only
    Won’t you, won’t you
    Won’t you, won’t you
    My darling
    Won’t you call me if you’re lonely
    Won’t you, won’t you
    Won’t you, won’t you

    Sha-la-la ooh, Sha-la-la ooh
    Sha-la-la ooh, Sha-la-la
    oooh

    My darling
    Won’t you be my one and only
    Won’t you, won’t you
    Won’t you, won’t you
    My darling
    Won’t you call me if you’re lonely…

    Graveyard Train
    Composer(s): John Fogerty
    Performer(s): Creedence Clearwater Revival;
    Steve Wynn



    On the highway, thirty people lost their lives
    On the highway, thirty people lost their lives
    Well, I had some words to holler, and my Rosie took a ride

    In the moonlight, see the greyhound rollin’ on
    In the moonlight, see the greyhound rollin’ on
    Flyin’ through the crossroads, Rosie ran into the hound

    For the graveyard, thirty boxes made of bone
    For the graveyard, thirty boxes made of bone
    Mister undertaker, take this coffin from my home

    In the midnight, hear me cryin’ out her name
    In the midnight, hear me cryin’ out her name
    I’m standin’ on the railroad, waitin’ for the graveyard train

    On the highway, thirty people turned to stone
    On the highway, thirty people turned to stone
    Oh, take me to the station, ’cause I’m number thirty-one

    Tenement Symphony
    Composer(s): Hal Borne - Sid Kuller - Ray Golden
    Performer(s): Tony Martin
    and multiple other artists



    Schubert wrote a symphony
    Too bad he didn’t finish it
    Gershwin took a chord in ‘G’
    Proceeded to diminish it
    I sought a variation
    on a theme that I thought pretty
    And I found my inspiration
    on the east side of the city

    The Cohens and the Kellys
    The Campbells and Vermicellis
    All form a part of my tenement symphony

    The Cohen’s pianola
    The Kellys and their victrola
    All warm the heart of my tenement symphony

    The Campbells come tumb’lin’ down the stairs
    Hoodlie-ah, hoodlie-ah, hoodlie-ah
    Oh Marie, oh Marie
    You’ll be late for your date with Izzy

    And from this confusion
    I dreamed of a grand illusion
    It’s my tenement symphony in four flats

    And from this confusion
    I dreamed of a grand illusion
    It’s my tenement symphony in four flats

    My Old Timey Baby
    Composer(s): Dan Hicks
    Performer(s): Dan Hicks



    Dan: My, you girls are sure lookin' nice tonight
    Girls: Thanks, Dan
    Dan: Yeah, you remind me of a girl who lives in my apartment complex
    Girls: Oh, Yeah?
    Dan: Really
    I don't know where she does her shoppin', but man what style!

    She's a bit old timey, but that's alright with me
    She wears a dress of velvet that hangs below her knees, her knees
    She's a bit old-fashioned, as all the world can see
    The cameo she wears upon her bosom, puts me in ecstasy, ecstasy
    Yes she's her own grandmother, that's what they're telling me
    But my old timey baby is swell enough for me, you see...

    She plays her old victrola
    The lamp is low, kerosene you know
    We lie upon her bed
    The patchwork quilt beneath her head
    Or while her wheel is spinning
    She sews some lace or we embrace
    Or when we go out strolling, the world can plainly see
    That my old timey baby is swell enough, she's young enough
    She's hip enough for me...

    Gratification
    Composer(s): Robert B. Sherman; Richard M. Sherman
    Performer(s): Johnny Whitaker



    Boys Chorus:
    You call this work?
    Well, ain't that funny
    We ain't doin' this for money
    Heck, it's just a regular
    Privilege to be occupied
    It's a source of pride
    Anyone can swim and fish on a Saturday
    Anyone can just lay down
    Layin' in a hammock,
    Layin' in the grass
    Like a lazy, no-good hound

    Tom:
    They just know that I'm softhearted
    I was barely getting' started
    Now I'm givin' all of my fun away
    They keep beggin' me
    And I'm generous

    I mean, when's the last time
    You could slosh a bucket
    Full of wash on a mile of fence?
    Look at them smilin'
    And havin' a time
    And all at my expense

    Boys Chorus:
    And you get that deep down inside gratifaction
    Gratifyin' satisfac—
    Well, I mean that deep-down inside gratifaction
    Oh, how good you feel
    When your shoulder's to the wheel

    You don't need nothin' except ambition
    Elbow grease for ammunition
    And bang, what a righteous glow you get
    From honest sweat,
    It's a natural bet

    Anyone who puts his
    Nose to the grindstone
    Is gonna get a great reward
    Your eyes will see the glory of
    The coming of the Lord

    And you get that deep-down inside gratifaction
    Pure enjoyment from employ—
    Well, I mean that deep-down inside gratifaction
    Oh, how good you feel
    When your shoulder's to the wheel

    You don't need nothin' except ambition
    Elbow grease for ammunition
    And bang, what a righteous glow you get
    From honest sweat
    It's a natural bet

    Anyone who puts his
    Nose to the grindstone
    Is gonna get a great reward
    Your eyes will see the glory of
    The coming of the Lord

    And you get that deep-down inside gratifaction
    And you get that deep down inside gratifaction
    Gratifyin' satisfac—
    Well, I mean that deep-down inside gratifaction
    Oh, how good you feel
    When your shoulder's to the wheel

    Tendre Cathy
    Composer(s): P. Carli - Marchetti - Bertini
    Performer(s): Christian Delagrange



    Tu es Cathy seule sans défense
    À peine sortie de l'enfance
    Tu verses déjà trop de larmes
    Pour un amour déçu

    Tu es Cathy bien trop fragile
    Aimer n'est pas toujours facile
    Mais tu es belle et à ton age
    On ne meurt pas d'amour

    Tendre Cathy n'ai plus de peine
    Regarde tous ces gens qui t'aiment
    La vie est pleine de promesses
    de tendresse et de joie

    Jolie Cathy tu dois sourire
    et retrouver le goût de vivre
    Si tu le veux viens je t'emmène
    Redécouvrir l'amour

    La La La La...
    Si tu le veux viens je t'emmène
    Redécouvrir l'amour
    La La La La...
    Si tu le veux viens je t'emmène
    Redécouvrir l'amour

    My Old Man's A Dustman
    Composer(s): Peter Buchanan;
    Lonnie Donegan; Beverley Thorne
    Performer(s): Lonnie Donegan
    and various other artists



    Now here's a little story
    To tell it is a must
    About an unsung hero
    That moves away your dust

    Some people make a fortune
    Others earn a mint
    My old man don't earn much
    In fact he's flippin' skint

    Oh, my old man's a dustman
    He wears a dustman's hat
    He wears cor-blimey trousers
    And he lives in a council flat
    He looks a proper nana
    In his great big hobnail boots
    He's got such a job to pull them up
    That he calls 'em daisy roots

    Some folks give tips at Christmas
    And some of them forget
    So when he picks their bins up
    He spills some on the step
    Now one old man got nasty
    And to the council wrote
    Next time my old man went round there
    He punched him up the throat

    Oh my old man's a dustman
    He wears a dustman's hat
    He wears cor-blimey trousers
    And he lives in a council flat

    Lonnie: I say, I say, Les
    Les: Yes?
    Lonnie: I, er, I found a police dog in my dustbin
    Les: Well how do you do know he's a police dog?
    Lonnie: He had a policeman with him

    Though my old man's a dustman
    He's got an 'eart of gold,
    He got married recently
    Though he's eighty-six years old
    We said "'Ere, hang on, Dad
    You're getting past your prime"
    He said "Well, when you get to my age
    It helps to pass the time"

    Oi! My old man's a dustman
    He wears a dustman's hat
    He wears cor-blimey trousers
    And he lives in a council flat

    Lonnie: I say, I say, I say!
    Les: Huh?
    Lonnie: My dustbin's full of lilies
    Les: Well throw 'em away then!
    Lonnie: I can't: Lily's wearing them

    Now one day whilst in a hurry
    He missed a lady's bin
    He hadn't gone but a few yards
    When she chased after him
    "What game do you think you're playing?"
    She cried right from the 'eart
    "You've missed me, am I too late?"
    "No, jump up on the cart!"

    Oi! My old man's a dustman
    He wears a dustman's hat
    He wears cor-blimey trousers
    And he lives in a council flat

    Lonnie: I say, I say, I say!
    Les: Not you again!
    Lonnie: My dustbin's absolutely full with toadstools
    Les: How do you know it's full?
    Lonnie: 'Cos there's not mushroom inside

    He found a tiger's head one day
    Nailed to a piece of wood
    The tiger looked like miserable
    But I suppose he should
    Just then from out a window
    A voice began to wail
    It said "Oi! Where's me tiger's head?"
    "Four foot from his tail"

    Oh my old man's a dustman
    He wears a dustman's hat
    He wears cor-blimey trousers
    And he lives in a council flat
    Next time you see a dustman
    Looking all pale and sad
    Don't kick him in the dustbin
    It might be my old dad
