    Ton Nom
    ((English Version: Sound Of Your Name (Charles Aznavour & Liza Minnelli))
    Composer(s): Charles Aznavour
    Performer(s): Charles Aznavour; Waldir Calmon



    Ton nom
    C'est un mot merveilleux, un appel qui jaillit
    Et de souffle en murmure aboutit à ce cri
    Déchirant par instant
    Le silence angoissant
    De la nuit

    Ton nom
    Que répète ma voix et que reprend l'écho
    Met le trouble en mon âme
    Et tant qu'il vibre en moi
    Mon coeur ne connaît pas
    De repos

    Ton nom
    Qui fait naître la joie où stagnait la peur
    C'est l'étoile qui luit dans le ciel de mon coeur
    Et me guide à travers
    Les sentiers escarpés
    Du bonheur

    Ton nom
    A l'heure où l'ombre vient pour dépouiller le jour
    Se transforme pour moi en simple mot d'amour
    Et me fait prisonnier
    De la nuit, de toi et
    De ton nom

    Ton nom
    Claque comme un drapeau planté comme un défi
    Sur la terre promise au rêveur que je suis
    Car il flotte à présent
    Dans l'azur, pour le temps
    De ma vie

    Ton nom
    Que j'écris sur les murs, sur les arbres, partout
    Et le crie sur les toits, dans le vent comme un fou
    Que tu sois dans mes bras
    Ou perdue loin de moi
    Loin de tout

    Ton nom
    C'est un son obsédant qui voltige dans l'air
    Il plane autour de moi, il me frôle et me serre
    Et joue à retourner
    Mon sang et mes pensées
    A l'envers

    Ton nom
    Sur mes lèvres et mon corps rime avec mes désirs
    Il est tendre, il est chaud, il se dit à plaisir
    Et je ne peux sans faiblir
    Demain vivre ou mourir
    En ton nom

    Coloured Rain
    Composer(s): Steve Winwood; Jim Capaldi; Chris Wood
    Originally performed by: Traffic
    Covered by various other artists



    Yesterday I was a young boy
    Searching for my way
    Not knowing what I wanted
    Living life from day to day
    'Till you came along
    There was nothing but an empty space and a pain

    Feels like Coloured Rain
    Tastes like Coloured Rain
    Bring on Coloured Rain
    Yeah!

    I can see a sail of changing
    Filling with surprise
    United with a feeling
    Bringing love into my eyes
    Till you came along
    there was nothing but an empty space and a pain

    Rien À Personne
    Composer(s): G. Aber;
    Erik Bamy; Johnny Hallyday
    Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



    Je ne dois rien à personne
    Mais je ne méprise personne
    J'ai donné plus que personne
    A cette garce de vie qu'j'me cogne

    Je me fous de ce que l'on pense
    Pour tout dire je m'en balance
    J'ai mes joies et mes souffrances
    Chaque jour j'avance

    Non, je ne dois rien à personne
    Et je ne méprise personne
    J'ai donné plus que personne
    Non je ne dois rien à personne

    Par défi par insolence
    Jamais rester sur la défense
    Chaque jour recommence
    Je m'engueule, avance avance

    Non je ne dois rien à personne
    C'est la vie qui vous façonne
    Comme on dit on devient un homme
    Par les coups qui vous assoment

    Non je ne dois rien à personne
    Et je ne méprise personne
    J'ai donné plus que personne
    Non non je ne dois rien à personne

    Un jour attaque un jour défense
    Je me fous de la médisance
    Plus ça fait mal plus j'crie vengeance
    Je m'engueule, avance avance

    Non je ne dois rien à personne
    Et je ne méprise personne
    J'ai donné plus que personne
    Non non je ne dois rien à personne

    Sound Of Your Name
    ((French Version: Ton Nom (Charles Aznavour))
    Composer(s): Herbert Kretzmer - Charles Aznavour
    Performer(s): Charles Aznavour & Liza Minnelli



    The sound of your name comes to me any hour
    On the wings of the wind, like the scent of a flower
    How can I explain its impossible power
    The sound of your name

    The sound of your name is a valentine greeting
    A dare when it rings and a heart when it's beating
    And alone in a cell where all things keep repeating
    The sound of your name

    Your name is a song that I long to be writing
    The music is strong and the words are inviting
    Exchangeable melodies, strangely exciting
    I found in your name

    The sound of your name can bring times of desire
    That flares like a plane as it climbs ever higher
    That burns in my senses and turns then to fire
    The sound of your name

    But love is a game that can't easily change
    The players discover the risk and the dangers
    We started as lovers, we ended as strangers
    Now where can I turn

    Your name is the ghost of a chance that you gave me
    That original day, just enough when plainly
    And only my grief, what is there that can tame me
    If you don't return

    As night in my dreams you are there, an obsession
    I whisper your name, I expel a confession
    You've entered my soul and you've taken possession
    And who can I blame

    For you are the heaven on earth that I sigh for
    The high unattainable moon that I cry for
    As long as I live, I will live and I'll die for
    The sound of your name

    Skeleton And The Roundabout
    Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
    Performer(s): The Idle Race



    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout
    I am the fairground man at heart
    I run the roundabout this part
    I fill this fair but custom have I none

    I turn the handle round so fast it makes my elbow ache
    Nobody seems to care
    No-one rides upon my roundabout no longer anymore
    Oh what a horrid fair!

    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout

    Money there is none - I'm thinner than a skeleton

    But wait a minute, I'm so thin
    That all these aches and pains could be a chance for me
    I could be a horror or a ghost in a ghost train
    I think I'll go and see

    I meet the man who runs the ghost train
    He says, "You're just great!
    I'll pay you top class wages
    If you'll just hang from this gate"

    A year is passing lots of food and money come my way
    Oh lucky man am I
    But who's this telling me, "You're fired!
    You're much too fat to be a ghost, be on your way!"
    So here I am

    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout
    Climb aboard my roundabout

    Color Slide Composer(s): Blaikley - Howard Performer(s): The Honeycombs



    I got you on my wall
    I got you ten foot tall
    I got you on a color slide

    I met you on the beach
    You weren't too hard to tease
    I quickly drew you to my side

    We spent one day of love
    One day of sun and sea
    I can't forget your kiss
    Or the thrill when I felt you holding me

    I said just for a laugh
    I'd take your photograph
    But now it seems my luck has died

    And when I'm feeling low
    I hold a picture show
    I'd sit and watch your color slide

    We spent one day of love
    One day of sun and sea
    I can't forget your kiss
    Or the thrill when I felt you holding me

    I got you on my wall
    I got you ten foot tall
    I got you on a color slide

    And baby it's a shame
    I didn't even take your name
    And now I got my color slide

    Rien À Jeter
    Composer(s): Georges Brassens
    Performer(s): Georges Brassens; Maxime le Forestier



    Sans ses cheveux qui volent
    J'aurais, dorénavant
    Des difficultés folles
    A voir d'où vient le vent

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Je me demande comme
    Subsister sans ses joues
    M'offrant de belles pommes
    Nouvelles chaque jour

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Sans sa gorge, ma tète
    Dépourvu' de coussin
    Reposerais par terre
    Et rien n'est plus malsain

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Sans ses hanches solides
    Comment faire, demain
    Si je perds l'équilibre
    Pour accrocher mes mains?

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Elle a mile autres choses
    Précieuses encore
    Mais, en spectacle, j'ose
    Pas donner tout son corps

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Des charmes de ma mie
    J'en passe et des meilleurs
    Vos cours d'anatomie
    Allez les prendre ailleurs

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    D'ailleurs, c'est sa faiblesse
    Elle tient ses os
    Et jamais ne se laisse-
    rait couper en morceaux

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien à jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Elle est quelque peu fière
    Et chatouilleuse assez
    Et l'on doit tout entière
    La prendre ou la laisser

    Tout est bon chez elle, y a rien jeter
    Sur l'île déserte il faut tout emporter

    Maria
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
    First release by: Patricia Neway, Elizabeth Howell, Muriel O'Malley, Karen Shepard - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    She climbs a tree and scrapes her knee
    Her dress has got a tear
    She waltzes on her way to Mass
    And whistles on the stair
    And underneath her wimple
    She has curlers in her hair
    I even heard her singing in the abbey

    She's always late for chapel
    But her penitence is real
    She's always late for everything
    Except for every meal
    I hate to have to say it
    But I very firmly feel
    Maria's not an asset to the abbey

    I'd like to say a word in her behalf
    Maria makes me laugh

    How do you solve a problem like Maria?
    How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
    How do you find a word that means Maria?
    A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!

    Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
    Many a thing she ought to understand
    But how do you make her stay
    And listen to all you say
    How do you keep a wave upon the sand

    Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
    How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

    When I'm with her I'm confused
    Out of focus and bemused
    And I never know exactly where I am
    Unpredictable as weather
    She's as flighty as a feather
    She's a darling! She's a demon! She's a lamb!

    She'd outpester any pest
    Drive a hornet from its nest
    She could throw a whirling dervish out of whirl
    She is gentle! She is wild!
    She's a riddle! She's a child!
    She's a headache! She's an angel!
    She's a girl!

    How do you solve a problem like Maria?
    How do you catch a cloud and pin it down?
    How do you find a word that means Maria?
    A flibbertijibbet! A will-o'-the wisp! A clown!

    Many a thing you know you'd like to tell her
    Many a thing she ought to understand
    But how do you make her stay
    And listen to all you say
    How do you keep a wave upon the sand

    Oh, how do you solve a problem like Maria?
    How do you hold a moonbeam in your hand?

    The Six Teens
    Composer(s): Mike Chapman - Nicky Chinn
    First release by: Sweet - 1974



    Where were you in sixty-eight
    In sixty-eight Julie was Johnnie's date
    Two kids growin' together
    Livin' each day as if time was slippin' away
    Oh, they were just sixteen
    And their love a teenage dream
    They passed the time, they crossed the line
    The line that ran between
    Julie and Johnnie now you've made it
    But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
    You've just gotta be strong
    If you're one of the sixteens
    And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
    You know you'll never go wrong
    'Cause you're all part of the sixteens

    Suzie and Davey got to make the big time
    Maybe they can put it all together
    In a show that lasts forever
    Oh they would walk the strip at nights
    And dream they saw their name in lights
    On Desolation boulevard
    They'll light the faded light
    Suzie and Davey you can make it

    But life goes on, you know it ain't easy
    You've just gotta be strong
    If you're one of the sixteens
    And life goes on, you know, you know it ain't easy
    You know you'll never go wrong
    'Cause you're all part of the sixteens

    So where were you in sixty-eight
    When Bobby and Billy thought
    That sixty eight was out of date
    They took the flowers from their hair
    And tried to make us all aware
    Too bad, too late
    So they lived from day to day
    And tried to do it all their way
    But sixty-eight was sixty-eight
    No matter what they say
    Bobby and Billy maybe you'll make it one day...

    Composer(s): Tony Hatch; James Pankow; Jackie Trent
    Performer(s): Petula Clark



    You'll never see a dark cloud hanging 'round me
    Now there is only blue sky to surround me
    There's never been a gray day since you found me
    Everything I touch is turning to gold

    So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
    Oh you can colour my world with happiness all the way
    Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
    And if you colour my world, just paint it with your love
    Just colour my world

    Just as long as I know you're thinking of me
    There'll be a rainbow always up above me
    Since I found the one who really loves me
    Everything I touch is turning to gold

    So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
    Oh you can colour my world with happiness all the way
    Just take the green from the grass & the blue from the sky up above
    And if you colour my world, just paint it with your love
    Just colour my world

    Sunshine yellow, orange blossom
    Laughing faces everywhere, yeah

    So you can colour my world with sunshine yellow each day
    Oh you can colour my world with happiness all the way
    Just take the green from the grass and the blue from the sky up above
    And if you colour my world, just paint it with your love
    Just colour my world

    Colour my world, colour my world

    and various other artists



    I dreamed I had a good job and I got well paid
    I blew it all at the penny arcade
    A hundred dollars on a Kewpie doll
    No pretty chick is gonna make me crawl

    We're on a TWA to the promised land
    Every woman, child and man
    Get a Cadillac and a great big diamond ring
    Don't you know you're riding with the king?

    He's on a mission of mercy to the new frontier
    He's gonna check us all on out of here
    Up to that mansion on a hill
    Where you can get your prescription filled

    We're on a TWA to the promised land
    Everybody clap your hands
    And don't you just love the way that he sings?
    Don't you know we're riding with the king?
    Riding with the king
    Don't you know we're riding with the king?

    A tuxedo and shiny 335
    You can see it in his face, the blue never lie
    Tonight everybody's getting their angel wings
    And don't you know we're riding with the king?

    I stepped out of Mississippi when I was ten years old
    With a suit cut sharp as a razor and a heart made of gold
    I had a guitar hanging just about waist high
    And I'm gonna play this thing until the day I die
    Don't you know we're riding with the king?
    Don't you know we're riding with the king?
    Riding, you're riding with the king
    You're riding, you're riding with the king

    ((Adapted from: Sound Of Music (Mary Martin) - 1959))
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II - Joris Lutz - Luc Lutz
    Performer(s): Ann De Winne - 1998



    Een dag op de berg, vliegt om voor je ‘t weet, zo vlug
    Een ster die verdwijnt, die leidt mij naar huis terug
    Maar diep in mijn hart weerklinkt dan een stem die me zegt niet te gaan
    En ik luister en hoop vol verlangen op nog een lied
    Mijn lievelingsmelodie voor ik slapen ga

    De mooiste muziek, rijk aan melodieën
    Weerklinkt door het dal, van dit schone land
    Vervult heel mijn hart met z’n melodieën
    Aan ieder lied heb ik mijn hart verpand

    Mijn hart slaat op hol en ik zweef door de lucht
    Als een vogel zo vrank en zo vrij en kijk in mijn vlucht
    Als een kind dat droomt naar het land onder mij

    Daar stroomt een rivier
    Als een zilveren lint in een luchtspiegeling
    Ik voel mij zo vrij als een biddende vogel en zing

    Ik vlucht hier naartoe als ik mij alleen voel
    Dan hoor ik muziek waar ik zo van hou
    Mijn hart is verrukt
    Want die melodieën zijn mij zo vertrouwd

    Where are the simple joys of maidenhood?
    Where are all those adoring daring boys?
    Where's the knight pining so for me
    he leaps to death in woe for me?
    Oh where are a maiden's simple joys?

    Shan't I have the normal life a maiden should?
    Shall I never be rescued in the wood?
    Shall two knights never tilt for me
    and let their blood be spilt for me?
    Oh where are the simple joys of maidenhood?

    Shall I not be on a pedestal,
    Worshipped and competed for?
    Not be carried off, or better st'll,
    Cause a little war?
    Where are the simple joys of maidenhood?

    Are those sweet, gentle pleasures gone for good?
    Shall a feud not begin for me?
    Shall kith not kill their kin for me?
    Oh where are the trivial joys?
    Harmless, convivial joys?
    Where are the simple joys of maidenhood?

    Performer(s): Donna Summer; Motors



    I'm walking the line
    I'm walking the line
    treading thin ice
    time after time

    I go for the best, end up with much less
    I need the real thing
    forget all the rest

    started out good
    working out bad
    all the sweet love turner
    sour and sad

    a face and name
    it's always the same
    so tired of playing love's foolish games
    tell me why
    love passes me by

    Cold love, cold love
    another shot of rock'n'roll love
    cold love, cold love
    whatever happened to that
    good old love
    tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    tell me why, tell me why

    Hope in the dark, love in the light
    I'll keep on looking for someone
    who's right

    I'm out for the best
    can you stand the test
    I need the real thing
    no more and no less
    tell me why
    love passes me by

    Cold love, cold love
    another shot of rock'n'roll love
    cold love, cold love
    whatever happened to that
    good old love
    tell me why, tell me why, tell me why
    tell me why, tell me why

    Riding With Private Malone
    Composer(s): Wood Newton; Thom Shepherd
    Performer(s): David Ball



    I was just out of the service
    Thumbin' through the classifieds
    When an ad that said "Old Chevy"
    Somehow caught my eye
    The lady didn't know the year
    Or even if it ran
    But I had that thousand dollars in my hand
    It was way back in the corner of this old ramshackle barn
    With thirty years of dust and dirt on that green army tarp
    And when I pulled the cover off
    It took away my breath
    What she called a Chevy
    Was a sixty-six Corvette
    And I felt a little guilty as I counted out the bills
    But what a thrill I got
    When I sat behind the wheel
    I opened up the glovebox
    And that's when I found the note
    The date was 1966 and this is what he wrote

    He said my name is Private Andrew Malone
    And if your readin' this, then I didn't make it home
    But for every dream that's shattered
    Another one comes true
    This car was once a dream of mine
    Now it belongs to you
    Though you may take her and make her your own
    You'll always be riding with Private Malone

    Well it didn't take me long at all
    I had her runnin' good
    I loved to hear those horses thunder underneath her hood
    I had her shinin' like a diamond and I put the rag top down
    All the pretty girls would stop and stare as I drove her through town
    The buttons on the radio didn't seem to work quite right
    But it picked up that Oldie's Show
    Especially late at night
    I get the feelin' sometimes If I turned real quick I'd see
    A soldier ridin' shotgun
    In the seat right next to me

    It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
    Who fought for his country and never made it home
    But for every dream that's shattered
    There's another that comes true
    This car was once a dream of his back when it was new
    He told me to take her and make her my own
    And I was proud to be riding with Private Malone

    Well one night it was rainin' hard
    I took the curve too fast
    I still don't remember much about that firey crash
    But someone said they thought they saw a soldier pull me out
    They didn't get his name
    But I know without a doubt

    It was a young man named Private Andrew Malone
    Who fought for his country and never made it home
    But for every dream that's shattered
    There's another that comes true
    This car was once a dream of his back when it was new
    And I know I wouldn't be here if he hadn't tagged along
    Yeah that night I was riding with Private Malone

    Oh thank God I was riding with Private Malone

    Private Malone

    Sound Of Music
    ((Dutch Version: De Mooiste Muziek (Ann De Winne) - 1998))
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
    First performance/First release by: Mary Martin - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The hills are alive with the sound of music
    With songs they have sung for a thousand years
    The hills fill my heart with the sound of music
    My heart wants to sing every song it hears

    My heart wants to beat like the wings of the birds
    that rise from the lake to the trees
    My heart wants to sigh like a chime that flies
    from a church on a breeze
    To laugh like a brook when it trips and falls over
    stones on its way
    To sing through the night like a lark who is learning to pray

    I go to the hills when my heart is lonely
    I know I will hear what I've heard before
    My heart will be blessed with the sound of music
    And I'll sing once more

    The Silky Veils Of Ardor
    Composer(s): Joni Mitchell
    First release by: Joni Mitchell - 1977



    I am a poor wayfaring stranger
    Traveling through all these highs and lows
    I heard there was no sickness
    And no toil or danger
    Just mercy and plenty
    Where peaceful waters flow
    Where peaceful waters flow

    Come all you fair and tender school girls
    Be careful now--when you court young men
    They are like the stars
    On a summer morning
    They sparkle up the night
    And they're gone again
    Daybreak--gone again

    If I'd only seen through the silky veils of ardor
    What a killing crime this love can be
    I would have locked up my heart
    In a golden sheath of armor
    And kept its crazy beating
    Under strictest secrecy
    High security

    I wish I had the wings
    Of Noah's pretty little white dove
    So I could fly this raging river
    To reach the one I love
    But I have no wings
    And the water is so wide
    We'll have to row a little harder
    It's just in dreams we fly
    In my dreams we fly!

    Cold Hearted
    Composer(s): Gary Moore
    Performer(s): Gary Moore



    I'm a man with something to say
    I don't need nobody to show me the way
    I don't care if it's day or if it's night
    Ain't nobody gonna teach me wrong from right

    'Cause every hungry woman
    Has tried to make a fool out of me
    Every hungry woman
    Stick around and baby you'll see

    I'm cold hearted
    I'm so cold hearted

    I'm a man with a mind of my own
    I don't need nobody, I'm happy all alone
    I don't care if it's day or if it's night
    Ain't nobody gonna teach me wrong from right

    'Cause every hungry woman
    Has tried to make a fool out of me
    Every hungry woman
    Stick around and baby you'll see

    I'm cold hearted
    So cold hearted
    I'm cold hearted
    So cold hearted

    Let me show you why they call me cold hearted, baby

    Every hungry woman
    Has tried to make a fool out of me
    Every hungry woman
    Stick around and baby you'll see

    I'm cold hearted
    So cold hearted
    I'm cold hearted
    So cold hearted

    Baby, I tell you I've got a heart that's made of stone

    So Long, Farewell
    Composer(s): Richard Rodgers - Oscar Hammerstein II
    First performance/First release by: Mary Martin & Theodore Bikel - 1959
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Children:
    There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall
    And the bells in the steeple too
    And up in the nursery an absurd little bird
    Is popping out to say "cuckoo"
    Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
    Cuckoo, cuckoo

    Children: Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
    Regretfully they tell us
    Cuckoo, cuckoo
    But firmly they compel us
    Cuckoo, cuckoo
    To say goodbye...
    Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:
    Cuckoo!

    Children:
    ... to you

    Children:
    So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night

    Marta:
    I hate to go and leave this pretty sight

    Children:
    So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu

    Friedrich:
    Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu

    Children:
    So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen

    Liesl:
    I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne

    Children:
    So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye

    Kurt:
    I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye -- Goodbye!

    Brigitta:
    I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie

    Louisa:
    I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly

    Gretl:
    The sun has gone to bed and so must I

    Children:
    So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye
    Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

    Guests:
    Goodbye!
