    I See Only Sunshine
    Composer(s): Alex Chilton
    Performer(s): Box Tops



    I sat last night at midnight
    Blinded by the daylight
    Sitting at the window, thinking about you and me
    I see our lives together
    I see our love forever
    I picture in my heart every night how it's gonna be
    Yea, Lord now...

    I see only sunshine
    For you and me, for years to come, now
    I can see it, can't you see it too?
    We can share the nighttime
    ‘Til the morning’s shining squints our eyes, now
    Years of loving me and years of loving only you

    I catch myself in daydreams
    Thinking about the hard times we've seen
    We've been through it; there ain't nothing but good times ahead
    I walk into walls, forget things
    Forget too match my clothes, my ears ring
    It circles in my head, did you listen to what I said, now?
    Yea, Lord now…

    (chorus)

    Ecos De Sociedad
    Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



    Ella iba impecable, elegantísima
    con un temblor de ilusión en la sonrisa
    que otorga a las amigas como un regalo caro
    Ella iba radiante, radiantísima
    aunque a veces le nazca ambarina y purísima
    una furtiva lágrima de cristal veneciano
    El iba luciendo su viril elegancia
    su bigotito gris, su educación en Francia
    y la fábrica azul de su suegro en Manresa
    El iba orgulloso de su aristocracia
    que le ha permitido, y no es una desgracia
    amarrarse al duro banco de una galera burguesa
    Y comienza la boda y de repente estalla
    un ligero aleteo de sonrisas, medallas
    tules, lazos, satenes y condecoraciones
    Y alguna tosecilla provoca una mirada
    sobre alguna señora que enseguida indignada
    abanica elegante las malas intenciones
    La catedral es un barco que navega despacio
    sobre un mar de rosas de terciopelo lacio
    y atraca en el escote de una joven doncella
    Y en el altar barroco sueñan los serafines
    fuentes de porcelana con luces y delfines
    y paseos dorados en las noches de estrellas
    Y qué bien habla el abate y la novia era estrecha
    y ahora está muy gordita y la leve sospecha
    como un licor suavísimo les llena de contento
    Y ya la ceremonia como chicle se estira
    como un chicle de música mientras que gira y gira
    la noria hueca de los pensamientos
    Y el padre de la novia está feliz y piensa
    lo elegante que hará un escudo a su empresa
    y la madre a su lado de vez en cuando llora
    Y un caballero enjusto de cultura esmerada
    deposita un pañuelo en la mano enguatada
    diciendo: "España y yo somos así, señora"

    I've come of heart, baby, but now I'm cool
    I didn't make it surely, playin' by the rules
    I've come of heart, baby, but now I'm fine
    I'm checkin' trouble, sure movin' down the line
    I've come of heart, baby, but that's OK
    'Cause Trouble Man don't get in my way

    I've come of heart, baby
    I've been for real, baby
    Gonna keep movin', gonna roll to town
    I've come of heart, come on, get down
    There's only 3 things for sure:
    Taxes, death and trouble

    This I know, baby, this I know, child
    Yeah, let the sweat through you, baby
    Get me singin', yeah, yeah, ooo

    I've come of heart, baby, I had to fight
    Took him on madness with all my might
    I've come of heart, I had to win
    Then start all over and then again
    I've come of heart, but that's OK
    'Cause Trouble Man don't get in my way

    I've heard some places and I've seen some places
    I've never had tensions, I give my directions
    When people say; that's OK, they don't bother me
    I'm ready to make it, don't care 'bout the weather
    Don't care 'bout no trouble, got myself together
    No laughin', no cryin', protection's all around me

    I've come of heart, baby
    I've been for real, baby
    With the Trouble Man
    Movin', goin' tight
    I've come of heart, come on, get down
    There's only 3 things for sure
    Taxes, death and trouble

    This I know, baby, baby
    This I know, baby, baby
    Hey now, let it sweat, baby

    I've come of heart, but now I'm cool
    I didn't make it, baby, playin' by the rules
    I've come of heart, baby, but now I'm fine
    I'm checkin' trouble, sure movin' down the line

    (Huhuhuuuuuhuuuuu) (Huuuuuhuuuuu) (In the Morning Light) (I see hope in the morning light) (I see hope in the morning light) Another long night caresses round me Shows no pity knows no shame To share its lifetime of endless moments Till I can touch the light again Everything changes, everything 'round us Everything matters after all Let something move me and I will follow Not walking blind but walking tall Where does it say that we must hide Inside this cold divide where nothing good can grow, oho When has a life been black and white Where it's only wrong or right, I never felt so low Deliver me from my sad story (I see hope in the morning light) Come to me in love and glory (I see hope in the morning light) Bringing peace and understanding (I see hope in the morning light) Emotional and undemanding (I see hope in the morning light) This heat that's growing from deep inside me Lighted by your burning flame But through the darkness when sleep surrounds me I'll wake up crying out your name There are no reasons, no lame excuses To lock up freedom and desire With love the power you came right through me And turned this ember to a fire (Deliver me from my sad story) (I see hope in the morning light) (Come to me in love and glory) (I see hope in the morning light) Where does it say that we must hide Inside this cold divide where nothing good can grow When has a life been black and white Where it's only wrong or right, I never felt so low Deliver me from my sad story (I see hope in the morning light) Come to me in love and glory (I see hope in the morning light) Bringing peace and understanding (I see hope in the morning light) Emotional and undemanding (I see hope in the morning light) Deliver me from my sad story (I see hope in the morning light) Oh, come to me in love and glory (I see hope in the morning light) Bringing peace, love and understanding (I see hope in the morning light) Emotional and undemanding (I see hope in the morning light) Oh, deliver me from my sad story (I see hope in the morning light) Come to me in love and glory (I see hope in the morning light) Bringing peace and understanding (I see hope in the morning light)

    Eclipse Oculto
    Composer(s): Caetano Veloso Performer(s): Caetano Veloso



    Nosso amor não deu certo, gargalhadas e lágrimas De perto fomos quase nada Tipo de amor que não pode dar certo na luz da manhã E desperdiçamos os blues do Djavan Demasiadas palavras, fraco impulso de vida Travada a mente na ideologia E o corpo não agia como se o coração tivesse antes que optar Entre o inseto e o inseticida Não me queixo, eu não soube te amar Mas não deixo de querer conquistar Uma coisa qualquer em você, o que será? Como nunca se mostra o outro lado da lua Eu desejo viajar do outro lado da sua Meu coração galinha de leão não quer mais amarrar frustração Ó eclipse oculto na luz do verão Mas bem que nós fomos muito felizes só durante o prelúdio Gargalhadas e lágrimas até irmos pro estúdio Mas na hora da cama nada pintou direito É, minha cara, falar, não sou proveito sou pura fama Nada tem que dar certo, nosso amor é bonito Só não disse ao que veio, atrasado e aflito E paramos no meio sem saber os desejos aonde é que iam dar E aquele projeto ainda estará no ar? Não quero que você fique fera comigo Quero ser seu amor, quero ser seu amigo Quero que tudo saia como som de Tim Maia, sem grilos de mim Sem desespero, sem tédio, sem fim

    Trouble Is My Middle Name
    Composer(s): John Gluck Jr. - Neval Nader
    Performer(s): Bobby Vinton; Brook Brothers; The Four Pennies



    Hello, little girl, goodbye, little girl
    I'm not your kind of guy, little girl
    I'll only make you cry, little girl
    Trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name

    Each kiss, little girl, is sweet, little girl
    They sweep me off my feet, little girl
    But no more must our lips meet, little girl
    Trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name

    I'm just a born wanderer driftin' by one day
    Each place that I've been, heartbreak moved in
    So I'll move on my way

    In time, little girl, you'll find, little girl
    I've been really kind, little girl
    Not changing your name to mine, little girl
    Trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name

    Not changing your name to mine, little girl
    Trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name

    Oh, trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name...
    Yes, trouble (trouble, trouble, trouble, trouble) is my middle name

    Maybe you want to give me kisses sweet
    But only for one night with no repeat
    Maybe you'd go away and never call
    And a taste of honey is worse than none at all (oh little girl)

    Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
    That would only break my heart
    Oh, but if you feel like loving me
    If you got the notion
    I second that emotion
    Said, if you feel like giving me
    A lifetime of devotion
    I second that emotion

    Maybe you think that love would tie you down
    You ain't got the time to hang around
    Maybe you think that love was made for fools
    So it makes you wise to break the rules

    Oh little girl, in that case I don't want no part
    That would only break my heart

    Eclipse De Mar
    Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute - Joaquín Sabina
    Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto; Guadalupe Pineda; Joaquín Sabina



    Hoy dice el periodico
    que ha muerto una mujer que conocí
    que ha perdido en su campo el Atletic
    y que ha amanecido nevando en París
    que han pillado un alijo de coca
    que a pisis y acuario
    les toca el vinagre y la miel
    que apoyo el parlamento europeo
    una ley a favor de abolir el deseo
    que fallo la vacuna anti sida
    que un golpe de estado ha fallado en la luna
    y movidas asi
    Pero nada decia el diario de hoy
    de esa sucia pasion, de este lunes marrón
    del obseno sabor a cubata de ron de tu piel
    del olor a colonia barata del amanecer
    de este cuarto sin medias ni besos
    de este frio de agosto en los huesos
    como un bisturí

    Hoy amor como siempre
    en el diario no hablaban de ti, ni de mi
    hoy amor igual que ayer como siempre
    en el diario no hablaban de ti
    en el diario no hablaban de ti
    en el diario no hablaban de ti, ni de mi

    Hoy dijo la radio
    que han hallado muerto al niño que yo fuí
    que han pagado un pasote de pelas
    por una acuarela falsa de Dalí
    que han caido la bolsa en el cielo
    que siguen las putas en huelga de celo en Moscú
    que subio la marea que fusilan mañana a Jesus de Judea
    que crecio el ahujero de ozono
    que el padre de hoy es el padre del mono
    del año 2000

    Hoy amor como siempre...

    A woman gets all the blame
    For everything that happens under the sun
    But when it comes to being bad
    A woman's not the only one

    Trouble is a man
    A man who loves me no more, no more
    Trouble is a man
    A man I'll always adore

    Nothing good to say about him
    Still I hate a day without him
    Why should he have to be
    The one, my only

    Trouble is a man
    A man who's handsome and tall, so tall
    Trouble is a man
    Who's for himself and that's all

    After all we've done, he didn't mean it
    Now I understand, I should have seen it
    Trouble is a man
    Trouble is a man
    Trouble, trouble

    Composer(s): Burt Bacharach; Hal David
    Performer(s): Raphael



    Mi amor, cada noche
    Repito otra vez tu nombre
    I say a little prayer for you
    Te busco en mis sueños
    Me muero por ser tu dueño
    I say a little prayer for you
    Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
    And I will love you
    Forever, and ever, we never will part
    Oh, how I’ll love you
    Together, together, that's how it must be
    To live without you
    Would only be heartbreak for me
    Si tú comprendieras
    Que paso la noche entera
    I say a little prayer for you
    Yo nunca te olvido
    Están mis cinco sentidos
    I say a little prayer for you
    Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
    And I will love you
    Forever, and ever, we never will part
    Oh, how I’ll love you
    Together, together, that's how it must be
    To live without you
    Would only be heartbreak for me
    Mi amor no te miento
    Ya nadie me importa más que tú
    Abrázame
    Nadie más que tú
    Quiero que digas
    Cuanto me amas tú
    Cuanto me quieres

    I hear your voice everywhere
    It's echoes of love
    Making me look back over my shoulder
    Echoes of love are started all over

    Echoes of love
    Keeps on haunting
    I'm out of control
    Keeps on burning
    Echoes of love are out of control
    Bringing back love I used to hold

    Darlin', since you went away
    Think about you every day
    So many memories
    Got to get the best of me

    Recalling the times
    I used to hold you
    I just wouldn't do
    What I was supposed to
    I've done things
    I'd like to undo
    Now darlin' it's you
    I'd like to run to

    Echoes of love
    Keeps on haunting
    I'm out of control
    Keeps on burning
    Echoes of love are out of control
    Bringing back love I used to hold

    Echoes of love
    Echoes of love
    Love, echoes of love
    Keeps on haunting
    Echoes of love, echoes of love
    Keeps on burning

    Trouble In Shangri-La
    Performer(s): Stevie Nicks



    I remember him, he was very young
    No one spoke like him, he was someone
    And I carried on, like I couldn't stop
    All of it for us baby

    And you, you got in my way
    Stood between me and my friends
    It was my sin, it was my shame
    You were unconscious to the pain I was in

    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Down to the sea
    Show me the way back, honey
    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Show me the way back... to the sea

    With honor be it spoken
    To understand this light that we carry
    And let it light your way
    Of course, you know, I generally take it
    Well I make accommodations for you
    And consider this
    You used to be my love
    I make excuses for you

    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Down to the sea
    Show me the way back, honey
    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Show me the way back... to the sea

    You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
    I know you can, I've seen you do it
    And it brings up the wind
    And it rises around you in pillars of color

    But the promise has been broken
    As you walk through the shadow of death
    You try to see no evil
    But you are heartbroken
    You say, dear God, make it stop!

    Before the dawn of separation
    Brings up the wind
    Rises around you
    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    Pillars of color
    Trouble in Shangri-La
    I make accommodations for you

    I guess we don't believe
    That things could go that far
    We all believe in people...
    That we think believe in God
    Somewhere in the night...
    Someone feels the pain
    The ones who walk away
    Try to love again...

    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Down to the sea
    Show me the way back, honey
    I hear there's trouble in Shangri-La
    I run through the grass
    I run over the stones
    Show me the way back... to the sea

    You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
    Because you are so heartbroken
    You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
    Before the dawn of separation
    You can consume all the beauty in the room, baby
    Show me the way back

    First release by: Dionne Warwick - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    The moment I wake up
    Before I put on my makeup
    I say a little prayer for you
    While combing my hair, now
    And wondering what dress to wear, now
    I say a little prayer for you

    Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
    And I will love you
    Forever, forever, we never will part
    Oh, how I'll love you
    Together, together, that's how it must be
    To live without you
    Would only be heartbreak for me

    I run for the bus, dear
    While riding I think of us, dear
    I say a little prayer for you
    At work, I just take time
    And all through my coffee break-time
    I say a little prayer for you

    Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
    And I will love you
    Forever, forever we never will part
    Oh, how I'll love you
    Together, together, that's how it must be
    To live without you
    Would only be heartbreak for me

    I say a little prayer for you
    I say a little prayer for you

    Forever, forever, you'll stay in my heart
    And I will love you
    Forever, forever we never will part
    Oh, how I'll love you
    Together, together, that's how it must be
    To live without you
    Would only be heartbreak for me

    My darling, believe me
    For me there is no one
    But you ....

    Echo Park
    Composer(s): Buzz Clifford Performer(s): Keith Barbour



    It's the morning soon he'll rise Find the glasses for his eyes Aren't what they used to be Picks up the clothes he's worn so long On the bureau sits the picture of a lady And the mural of a man who's been gone for many years The old man walks in Echo Park From bench to bench he moves from morning `til dark For the ducks some bread he brings Wonder if he'll feed them this time next spring Listening to the children play Reminds him of other days Many years ago Thoughts of a child that he helped grow And the memory of a letter saying dear sir We regret to inform you, your son will not be coming home The old man walks in Echo Park From bench to bench he moves from morning `til dark For the ducks some bread he brings Wonder if he'll feed them this time next spring Old man tell me are there fears Do you measure life in years Or is one day all you'll ever know I've got to know The old man walks in Echo Park From bench to bench he moves from morning `til dark For the ducks some bread he brings Wonder if he'll feed them this time next spring Have I been a good man Have I tried to see the light Wish I may, wish I might Have the wish I wish tonight Have I been a good man

    Kay
    Composer(s): Hank Mills
    Performer(s): John Wesley Ryles



    Kay, with all your singin' talent
    Back in Houston, Nashville's all you talked about
    I sold everything I owned to bring you here
    Now you'll be famous, there's no doubt

    Last week you knocked 'em out in New York
    Tonight Chicago's goin' wild
    Kay, your new record on the jukebox don't sound bad
    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Caution lights blink out their warning
    Some old faithful Big Ben clock chimes 3 a.m.
    Starvin' hound dogs search the trash cans
    My gas tank could stand a dollar's worth again

    All those chuck holes here on main street
    Jar my rib cage, I could cuss
    Kay, the crowd of night life people look so sad
    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Two young soldiers from Fort Campbell
    Told me how they hate that war in Vietnam
    Sirens echo through an alley
    And some woman said some fellah stabbed a man

    I rushed Miss Teenage to the doctor
    She begged to give the child my name
    I've lost count of cups of coffee that I've had
    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Three rose petals on my front seat
    Fallen from the bouquet Jimmy took to June
    Jim kept mumblin' through his teardrops
    God, she'll leave this world with flowers in her room

    Kay, I showed some drunk your picture
    And he made some smart remark
    So I hit him in the mouth, boy was I mad
    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Guitars, organs, horns, violins
    And pianos, how they play
    Grinding out the latest sounds
    From Music City, USA

    Kay, although I know I've lost you
    To the swingin' music world
    I kiss pictures of those happy times we had
    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Kay, I'm livin', yet I'm dyin'
    Starin' out at Music City from my cab

    Echo Beach
    ((French Version: Egoïste (La Grande Sophie) - 2006))
    Composer(s): Mark Gane
    First release by: Martha and the Muffins - 1980
    Covered by multiple other artists



    I know it's out of fashion
    And a trifle uncool
    But I can't help it
    I'm a romantic fool
    It's a habit of mine
    To watch the sun go down
    On Echo Beach, I watch the sun go down

    From nine 'til five I have to spend my time at work
    Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day

    On a silent summer evening
    The sky's alive with light
    Building in the distance
    Surrealistic sight
    Waves make the only sound
    There's not a soul around
    From nine 'til five I have to spend my time at work
    The job is very boring, I'm an office clerk
    The only thing that helps me pass the time away
    Is knowing I'll be back at Echo Beach some day

    Echo Beach
    Echo Beach
    Far away in time...

    I Saw The Light
    Composer(s): Todd Rundgren
    First release by: Todd Rundgren - 1972



    It was late last night
    I was feeling something wasn't right
    There was not another soul in sight
    Only you, only you
    So we walked along,
    though I knew there was something wrong
    And the feeling hot me oh so strong about you
    Then you gazed up at me and the answer was plain to see
    'Cause I saw the light in your eyes

    Though we had our fling
    I just never would suspect a thing
    'Til that little bell began to ring in my head
    In my head
    But I tried to run
    though I knew it wouldn't help me none
    'Cause I couldn't ever love no one, or so I said
    But my feelings for you
    were just something I never knew
    'Til I saw the light in your eyes

    But I love you best
    It's not something that I say in jest (ha ha)
    'Cause you're different, girl, from all the rest
    In my eyes
    And I ran out before but I won't do it anymore
    Can't you see the light in my eyes

    Echame A Mí La Culpa
    Composer(s): J. Ángel Espinoza
    Performer(s): Javier Solís



    No sufro, mas lloro

    Sabes mejor que nadie
    que me fallaste
    que lo que prometiste
    se te olvidó

    Sabes a ciencia cierta
    que me engañaste
    aunque nadie te amara
    igual que yo

    Lleno estoy de razones
    pa' despreciarte
    y sin embargo
    quiero que seas feliz

    Que allá en el otro mundo
    en vez de infierno
    encuentres gloria
    y que una nube de tu memoria
    me borre a mí

    Dile al que te pregunte
    que no te quise
    dile que te engañaba
    que fui lo peor

    Echame a mí la culpa
    de lo que pasa
    cúbrete tú la espalda
    con mi dolor

    Que allá en el otro mundo
    en vez de infierno
    encuentres gloria
    y que una nube de tu memoria
    me borre a mí

    Echame a mí la culpa
    de lo que pasa

    I Saw Stars
    Composer(s): Maurice Sigler; Al Goodhart; Al Hoffman
    Performer(s): Freddy Martin



    Something strange happened to me
    Lost my heart so suddenly
    Suddenly I found myself in a dream
    One sweet kiss did it to me
    I got dizzy instantly
    But something stranger happened, strange as it seems

    I saw stars
    I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
    The moment I fell for you
    I saw stars
    I heard an angel say, "Wake up, wake up
    Your wonderful dream come true"
    A new born feeling had me reeling
    I said to myself, "Where am I?"
    It's all so hazy, may sound crazy
    There wasn't a star in the sky
    Still, I saw stars
    I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet

    Never knew what love could do
    Never knew till I met you
    Now I thank my stars that you came along
    Your sweet smile opened my eyes
    Showed the way to paradise
    And now my heart is lighter, filled with a song

    I saw stars
    I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
    The moment I fell for you
    I saw stars
    I heard an angel say, "Wake up, wake up
    Your wonderful dream come true"
    A new born feeling had me reeling
    I said to myself, "Where am I?"
    It's all so hazy, may sound crazy
    There wasn't a star in the sky
    Still, I saw stars
    I heard a birdie sing so sweet, so sweet
