Stemmen I Mit Liv Composer(s): Kølig Kaj First performance by: Kølig Kaj - 1997
"Det er Oplysningen, hallo" "Ja, hallo, det er Kaj, ka' jeg snak' med hende den søde?" "Hvem er den søde?" "Ja, stemmen i mit liv"
(Jeg tænder på dig, og ka' ikk' nå dig for) (Du' så langt fra mig)
Jeg går og føler mig lidt ensom, fordi jeg savner en Jeg kan dele mit liv med, det er ved at være et problem Jeg ringer til dig, men kan ikke få det sagt Når modet det så kommer, så er røret jo lagt på
Klokken er to, jeg har prøvet flere gange Du er ikk' og træffe, svaret er det samme Hvorfor er du borte, når jeg er lige her? Hvorfor er jeg ene? Jeg føler mig så sær
Jeg skyder over målet, hver gang jeg tror, jeg sigter Føler mig så sikker, men kontakten til dig svigter Har det ad helvede til, jeg drikker mig fuld Alt dette for glemme dig og så din stemme
(Jeg tænder på dig, og ka' ikk' nå dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), du er stemmen i mit liv (Jeg ringer til dig, bar' jeg ku' se dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), ja, du er stemmen i mit liv
Jeg ble' fyret fra mit job, fordi jeg ringed' i arbejdstiden Det ku' ikke stoppe mig, jeg ville hør' dig hele tiden Lige sid'n har min mobilregning vokset Skylder folk penge, og mit liv er lidt kokset
Selvom jeg er artigt opvokset, ka' jeg ikk' la' vær Telefonen er nær, nummeret giver mig ikke besvær Med at huske, for det er bare en, en og otte Har ikk' snakket i dag, bar' jeg ku' nå det
For først var det Molly, så var det Lone, så var det Lis Så var det Mette, så var det Helle, så var det Kis Men hende, jeg ville snakke med, var ikke ved røret Havd' ringet tyve gange, tænkte løbet var kørt
For bar' et enkelt svar kunne redde min dag Men der var ingen lyse håb, intet svar jeg vil ha' Til sidst faldt jeg om, med min telefon i hånden Med drømmen om dig, din stemme i ånden
(Jeg tænder på dig), yeah... (og ka' ikk' nå dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), du er stemmen i mit liv (Jeg ringer til dig, bar' jeg ku' se dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), ja, du er stemmen i mit liv
Nå men, jeg må tage mig sammen ven Gribe telefonen og så prøve igen Jeg trykked' en, en, otte, ønskede, håbede "Det er Oplysningen", og så stod jeg og måbede
"Hej, det er Kaj, du..." "Der er i øjeblikket en kort ventetid på ca. tyve sekunder Ventetiden er gratis" "Jeg elsker dig"
(Jeg tænder på dig), yeah... (og ka' ikk' nå dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), du er stemmen i mit liv (Jeg ringer til dig, bar' jeg ku' se dig) for (Du' så langt fra mig), ja, du er stemmen i mit liv
Hallazgo De Las Piedras Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
El mundo entra por la puerta con mil sabores que no puedo recordar Cómo ha crecido lo que miro los viejos ruidos ya no sirven para hablar Ya descubrí los ascensores los cines y las construcciones la fosforera y el avión y otras cosas que conozco bien que cuando niño no sabía observar (entonces no necesitaba con los juegos siempre basta para comprender)
Crecí parejo como un cielo lleno de objetos que brillaban con el sol como vivir frente a un espejo y no saberlo hasta tocarme y verme yo Y todo crece en cada libro en cada cinta, en cada cuento en cada vista alrededor Y es doloroso aprender a vivir todo profana la atención vital Hay tantas luces en la sala tanta gente que nos llama que no se oye nada
Este pedazo de la historia es aguerrido para ver y reposar Parece que es definitivo se rompe todo y todo vuelve a comenzar

Let Me Fly Composer(s): Ray Agius First performance by: Debbie Scerri - 1997
Each time I hear the music play It makes me feel that way The memories we once shared Come back inside me
And when I hear that same old song Throughout the whole night long The pains that we've been through All fade away
Let me fly and I will reach way up high I will climb the steps that lead to the sky Where the clouds caress your face with my tears Let me try - I can fly
Let me hear the songs that I never played I will find the keys that open the gate Of my dreams, which light the flame in my life If they die, I can't fly
Hahah, hahahah Hahah, hahah, hahah
And when the music stops to play The thrill soon fades away Dark shadows from the past Will haunt my day
Let me fly and I will reach way up high I will climb the steps that lead to the sky Where the clouds caress your face with my tears Let me try - I can fly
Let me hear the songs that I never played I will find the keys that open the gate Of my dreams, which light the flame in my life If they die, I can't fly
Half-Breed Composer(s): Al Capps; Mary Dean Performer(s): Cher; and various other artists
My father married a Cherokee My mother's people were ashamed of me The Indian's said that I was white by law The white man always called me Indian Squaw
Half breed Is all I ever heard Half breed Let me hate the word Half breed She's no good they warned Both sides were against me since the day I was born
We never settled went from town to town When you're not welcome you don't hang around The other children always laughed at me Give her a feather she's a Cherokee
Half breed Is all I ever heard Half breed Let me hate the word Half breed She's no good they warned Both sides were against me since the day I was born
We weren't accepted and I felt the shame Fifteen I left and tell me whose to blame My life since then has been from man to man But I can't run away from what I am
Half breed Is all I ever heard Half breed Let me hate the word Half breed She's no good they warned Both sides were against me since the day I was born

The Voice Composer(s): Brendan J. Graham First performance by: Eimear Quinn - 1996
I hear your voice on the wind And I hear you call out my name
"Listen my child," you say to me "I am the voice of your history" "Be not afraid, come follow me" "Answer my call and I'll set you free"
I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain I am the voice of your hunger and pain I am the voice that always is calling you I am the voice, I will remain
I am the voice in the fields when the summer's gone The dance of the leaves when the autumn winds blow Ne'er do I sleep throughout all the cold winter long I am the force that in springtime will grow
I am the voice of the past that will always be Filled with my sorrows and blood in my fields I am the voice of the future Bring me your peace Bring me your peace and my wounds, they will heal
I am the voice in the wind and the pouring rain I am the voice of your hunger and pain I am the voice that always is calling you I am the voice
I am the voice of the past that will always be I am the voice of your hunger and pain I am the voice of the future I am the voice I am the voice I am the voice I am the voice
Half The Way Composer(s): Bobby Wood; Ralph Murphy Performer(s): Crystal Gayle
Half of your love is just not what I'm after Part of your world is just not what I need Some of your time is like one glass of water Just leaves me thirsty for wine
So fill me up to the top Wo don't you stop till I'm over-flowing Love is the seed and, babe, I need you To keep it growing Stronger every day Oh, no Don't take me half the way Don't take me half the way.
Never before have I settled for second All of my life I have hungered for more Now I can see where your sweet love can lead me This is what I've waited for
Half of your love is just not what I'm after Part of your world is just not what I need Now I can see where your sweet love can lead me This is what I've waited for
Sorta On The Border Composer(s): Irving Gordon - Mack Gordon Performer(s): Edmundo Ros; Tony Martin
I met my love one day, on the border down El Paso way She was a little sad a little gay She was sorta on the border
I heard her say, "Senor, tho I kinda like you more and more In old Sonora there's a matador And I'm sorta on the border"
I vowed that night I would love no other I held her tight, and if you want to know what happened Brother drop around and see, we've the cutest little family A girl that looks like her a boy like me And one that's sorta on the border

Half The Man (Twice The Fool) Composer(s): Paul Jones; Tom McGuinness Performer(s): The Blues Band
When you were by my side I would not be satisfied I thought the grass was greener over the hill You gave me your heart But I held back a part saying "Maybe" when I should have said "I will"
Now I must admit that I could not commit I thought Id always be your Mister Right And when you said "Were through" I said "Therell be somebody new" and let you walk away without a fight
(Leaving me)
Half the man and twice the fool I was Had a master-plan believed I was the boss Now Im at the hard knock school cause I broke the golden rule Now Im half the man and twice the fool I was
A man can spend his days in a melancholic haze of yesterdays and how-things-used-to-be Hindsights never wrong Now I know where I belong Theres no woman in this world but you for me
Time and time again there were warnings from my friends They said "Youll lose her if you carry on this way" But I was Mr Know-It-All riding for a fall When you walked out the blues walked in to stay
(Finding me)
Half the man Look at this three time loser Now that youre gone I lost my heart, I lost your love I lost the will to carry on Half the man

Liefde Is Een Kaartspel First performance by: Lisa Del Bo - 1996
Charmes had je bij de vleet Brandend wist ik wat je deed Maar m'n hart verlangde Naar die wilde handen Ik was gewoon van streek Ook al zag ik jou bij anderen staan Ook al ging je met hen aan de haal Ik wou en zou je krijgen Je aan m'n degen rijgen Al speelde ik met vuur
Liefde is een kaartspel Met jokers en pokers Liefde is een steekspel Van geven en nemen Liefde is een kaartspel Van dames en heren Liefde is een kansspel Voor winnaars zoals jij
Passie won van tederheid Furie van gezelligheid Wou je mij verslinden Zonder je te binden Mij raak je nooit meer kwijt Ook al ga je graag je eigen gang Jou verlaten maakt me niet meer bang Ik wil en zal je krijgen Je aan m'n degen rijgen Al speel ik nog met vuur
Liefde is een kaartspel Met jokers en pokers Liefde is een steekspel Van geven en nemen Liefde is een kaartspel Van dames en heren Liefde is een kansspel Voor winnaars zoals jij
Jij en ik Jij of ik Jij met die weet ik niet 't is genoeg Speel je niet Speel je wel Speel je spel Jij bent hartentroef
Liefde is een kaartspel Met jokers en pokers Liefde is een steekspel Van geven en nemen Liefde is een kaartspel Van dames en heren Liefde is een kansspel Voor winnaars zoals wij
Half Moon Bay Composer(s): Mick Ralphs; Ian Hunter Performer(s): Mott The Hoople
Well the colours cross my mind in a wave And the feelings that I find so very hard to say And I've gone with the rain making out But you never felt the same you are in doubt Well You mystified me I know And then you walked by me And the spell was broken in two
Too soon my eyes grow dim and I try To recognise the figures drifting by And too late the sane man comes with the key And I fight the loneliness that just ain't me And now the evening bows to the night And I feel the world go down before my eyes And recklessly I'm running round As I try to find another that ain't so proud Hey you know There's someone who seems like you in every way I'm going to search I'm going to search I'm going to search I'm going to search every day
Many years ago in my past I realise my dream would never last And constantly the letters fade And I sense the better half is already played And the colours cross my mind in a wave And the feelings that I find so very hard to say And I've gone with the rain making out But you never you never felt the same you are in doubt Oh you're still in doubt
Sorry, Sorry, Sorry Composer(s): Hoffman - Manning Performer(s): Alma Cogan
Sorry sorry sorry You always say you're sorry But you're always breaking my heart You keep on doing things that get me upset How many times can I forgive and forget?
You know I love you love you love you But eventhough I love you, I may have to tell you goodbye And when you beg me to make a new start I'll say I'm sorry sorry sorry sweetheart
Oh you keep on doing things that get me upset How many times can I forgive and forget? You know I love you love you love you But eventhough I love you, I may have to tell you goodbye And when you beg me to make a new start I'll say I'm sorry sorry sorry I'm sorry sweetheart

Sorry I Never Knew You Composer(s): Little Branch Performer(s): The Browns; Sherman Branch; The Sego Brothers & Naomi
Last night as I lay sleeping a dream came to me I dreamed about the end of time about eternity I saw a million sinners fall on their face and pray the Lord just sadly looked at them and this I heard Him say
Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth sorry, I never knew you go serve the one that you served while on earth
Well I thought that the time has surely come when I must face my trials and I told the Lord that I had been a Christian all the while and through his book he took a look and sadly shook his head he placed me over on the left and this is what he said
Sorry, I never knew you, I have no record of your birth sorry, I never knew you go serve the one that you served while on earth
Well I saw my wife and children, I heard their loving voice they must have been so happy, O how they did rejoice their robes of white around them, a crown upon their head my little girl looked up to me and this is what she said
Daddy, we can't go with you, we must dwell in the joy of our Lord Sorry, but we still love you, but you'll never be our Daddy anymore
And then I awakened, the tears were in my eyes and looking all around me and there to my surprise there was my wife and children, I knew it was a dream so kneeling at my bedside you should have heard me pray
Father who art in Heaven, I know you gave your only son forgive me and let me serve thee, for I want to be ready when He comes
