Ultimo Tango A Memphis
(Adapted from: Suspicious Minds - 1968)
(French Version: Soupçons - 1973)
Composer(s): Mark James - Luciano Ligabue
Performer(s): Luciano Ligabue - 1997



Camminerò
Fuori e dentro di me
Fuori da chi mi avete chiesto
Vi lascierò
In giro i giochi che ho
Voi fate pure, io
intanto, non cresco
Ultimo tango a Memphis
C'è chi non va più via
non va più via
Pensi di avermi, pensi
Senza averne un'idea
Camminerò
Fino a quando ce n'ho
Conosco il buio ed altri posti
E mi slaccierò
Quella cintura che so
Che ti fa dire "ci
siamo già visti?"
Ultimo tango a Memphis
C'è chi non va più via
non va più via
Mi hanno voluto Elvis
Per la loro allegria
Ho un magazzino pieno
Di sogni già fatti
Alcuni ancora buoni
Parecchi son rotti
Ma ci sono eh se ci sono
Ultimo tango a Memphis
C'è chi non va più via
non va più via
Pensi di avermi, pensi
Senza averne un'idea
Ultimo tango a Memphis
C'è chi non va più via
non va più via
Mi hanno voluto Elvis
Per la loro allegria
(Damianò)

Hands Across The Border
Composer(s): Ned Washington; Hoagy Carmichael
Performer(s): Roy Rogers



Hands across the border
Hands that reach my heart are stirring tender memories
And the touch of them will haunt me forever
Dream so much of them I'm never at ease
I've held your hands across the border
Since we've been apart
But now I want to see things through
Back where dreams are made to order in our old rendezvous
Hands across the border, calling me to you

1973 - Soupçons
1997 - Ultimo Tango A Memphis



We're caught in a trap
I can't walk out
Because I love you too much baby
Why can't you see
What you're doing to me
When you don't believe a word I say?
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And we can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
So, if an old friend I know
Drops by to say hello
Would I still see suspicion in your eyes?
Here we go again
Asking where I've been
You can't see these tears are real
I'm crying
We can't go on together
With suspicious minds
And be can't build our dreams
On suspicious minds
Oh let our love survive
Or dry the tears from your eyes
Let's don't let a good thing die
When honey, you know
I've never lied to you
Mmm yeah, yeah

Handprints On The Wall
Composer(s): Scott Innes; Claude Parish; Nelson Blanchard
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers



The wait turned into hours
Before you came my way
The smile that filled a daddy's heart
On the special day
The moment left me speechless
I didn't know what to say
Then you took your first breath
That took mine away

Days go by so quickly
Summer turns to fall
Seems like only yesterday
That you began to crawl
So don't be afraid to take that step
I'll catch you when you fall
I don't mind if you leave behind
A few handprints on the wall

I can't describe this feeling
Way down deep inside
The itsy-bitsy spider
Was the first thing that we tried
Patty cake, the baker's man
With your hands so very small
You could always stay this young
And I wouldn't mind at all

Days go by so quickly
Summer turns to fall
Seems like only yesterday
That you began to crawl
So don't be afraid to take that step
I'll catch you when you fall
I don't mind if you leave behind
A few handprints on the wall

Is Always Over Now?
Composer(s): Gerry Morgan
First performance by: Dawn Martin - 1998



I never thought that it would end
You were the one – my love, my friend
You were my every dream come true
Always, you said, was me and you
 
So how can you say it's over now?
How can you wave it all goodbye?
Always, you said, this love would be
Always, you said, was you and me
 
Is always over now?
Does it never last that long?
Were the feelings that I had
Ever right, or was it wrong?
To think that love should last
Was mistaken on my part
But you promised me the earth
(You promised me...)
And you only broke my heart
 
You touched my soul
You touched my life
You always would, you said
But now, you are taking always away
 
Is always over now?
Does it never last that long?
Were the feelings that I had
Ever right, or was it wrong?
To think that love should last
Was mistaken on my part
But you promised me the earth
(You promised me...)
And you only broke my heart
 
Is always over now?
Does it never last that long?
Were the feelings that I had
Ever right, or was it wrong?
To think that love should last
Was mistaken on my part
But you promised me the earth
(You promised me...)
And you only broke my heart
(You promised me...)

Handouts In The Rain
Composer(s): Richie Havens
Performer(s): Richie Havens; Paul Weller



You can talk about your neighbor
You can grab him by the collar
You can hurt him only if he hollers
"Let me go…let me go"

But we all know that's old-fashioned
And it can only lead to pain
Where we might end up on the corner
Taking handouts in the rain

You can bomb your foreign brother
You can hurt him until he dies
You can kill him until he never asks you why
You're on his land…you're on his land

But we all know that's all over
And that can only lead to blame
Where we might end up for our country
Taking handouts in the rain

You can trample on your sister
You can hurt her only if she cries
You can hurt her only if she cares
With all her heart…with all her heart

But we all know she'd be a mother
And that could only lead to shame
Where she might end up for her children
Taking handouts in the rain

Teach your children stories
You can fill them full of lies
You can make them all despise
One another…one another

But when they all find out later
And they call us by our rightful names
And send us shamefully to old age
Taking handouts in the rain
Taking handouts in the rain
Taking handouts in the rain

Handle With Care
Composer(s): The Traveling Wilburys
Performer(s): The Traveling Wilburys



Been beat up and battered 'round
Been sent up, and I've been shot down
You're the best thing that I've ever found
Handle me with care

Reputations changeable
Situations tolerable
Baby, you're adorable
Handle me with care

I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care

(Bridge)
Everybody's got somebody to lean on
Put your body next to mine, and dream on

I've been fobbed off, and I've been fooled
I've been robbed and ridiculed
In day care centers and night schools
Handle me with care

Been stuck in airports, terrorized
Sent to meetings, hypnotized
Overexposed, commercialized
Hand me with care

I'm so tired of being lonely
I still have some love to give
Won't you show me that you really care

(Bridge)

I've been uptight and made a mess
But I'll clean it up myself, I guess
Oh, the sweet smell of success
Handle me with care

The One That I Love
Composer(s): Jason Cassar - Sunny Aquilina
First performance by: Chiara Siracusa - 1998



Such a lovely night, when the stars are shining bright
And you're near, we're all alone, 'cause I long for you so much
I never felt this way, not before
You turn on my mind more and more
 
I think that I'm in love and you mean so much to me
I think I love you so, I'll never let you go
This must be love
Up there we seem to flow, I'm certain and now I know
For me, yes, you're just the one
The one that I love
 
Such a lovely sight, when the colours shine so bright
And you're near, we're all alone, and I feel so warm inside
I never felt this way all my life
You came like spring sunshine, gave me life
 
I think that I'm in love and you mean so much to me
I think I love you so, I'll never let you go
This must be love
Up there we seem to flow, I'm certain and now I know
For me, yes, you're just the one
The one that I love
 
For me, yes, you're just the one
The one that I love

Handcuffs
Composer(s): George Clinton; Glen Goins; John McLaughlin
Performer(s): Parliament



Oh, do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Do I have to keep under lock and key?
Do I have to put hand cuffs on you, mama?
Now we both know that's not how it should be

Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
You're a sweet fine sexy woman and you're good to a man
Cause if I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama
I hope that you will understand

If I have to keep you barefoot and pregnant
Oh, to keep you here in my world
(Lay down, girl) lay down and take off-a your shoes
Cause I'm a-gonna do to you
What it is I got to do

If we've been fighting like you say that we do
I know you won't mind, if I'm possessive, now would you?
You preach about lovin', you know it is to blame
That's why I can ask you and not even feel ashamed

Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Are you susceptible to flatter and game? (Lord we can game)
Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Will you submit to the first human to be called a name?
Cause if I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama
Don't you know I know, that that would be uncool
Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
I don't mind, I'll offer the moon, yeah
Yeah, I'll be the fool

I don't care if I'm lookin' like a chauvenistic kind of whatever
Some kind, Carl, you can go to hell
If I find that I need some help
Gonna put on my chastity belt
What it is, I got to do

If we've been fighting like you say that we do
Then you won't mind, if I'm possessive, now would you?
You preach about lovin', you know it is to blame
That's why I can ask you and not even feel ashamed

Oh, do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Do I have to keep under lock and key? (ahhh)
Do I have to put hand cuffs on you, mama?
Now we both know that's not how it should be

Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Are you susceptible to flatter and game? (Lord we can game)
Do I have to put my hand cuffs on you, mama?
Girl, you're a sweet fine sexy woman and you're good to man
Will you submit to the first human to be called a name?
Hopin' you, hopin' you will understand

Sound The Bell
Composer(s): Clarence Garlow - W. Shuler
Performer(s): Johnny Winter; Brophy Dale



I went out and got married
Thought I'd live a happy life
But before I could settle down
Another man had stole my wife

Well, sound the bell-yes it feels so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had-no

If you see my woman, won't you tell her for me
That you left me crying, and my heart's in misery

Well, sound the bell-well I feel so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had (long "no")

("yeah")

You might think I'm crazy, but I'll never love again
I'm going back home to my mama, 'cause she's my only friend

Sound the bell-Lord, I feel so sad
Nobody knows, the troubles I had-no
Nobody knows, the troubles I had (with a loud "no")
Nobody knows the troubles I had

Handbags And Gladrags
Composer(s): Michael d'Abo
Performer(s): Mike d'Abo;
and various other artists



Ever seen a blind man cross the road
Trying to make the other side
Ever seen a young girl growing old
Trying to make herself a bride
And what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy

Once I was a young man
And all I thought I had to do was smile
So listen all you young girls
Who have bought everything that’s in style
‘Cos once you think you're in you're out
For you don't mean a thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy

Sing a song of six-pence for your sake
And take a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds in a cake
And bake ‘em all in a pie
They told me you missed school today
So I suggest you just throw away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy

And what becomes of you my love
When they have finally stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your Grandad had to sweat so you could buy

Guildo Hat Euch Lieb!
Composer(s): Alf Igel
First performance by: Guildo Horn & Die Orthopaedischen Struempfe - 1998



Guildo hat Euch lieb
Und wenn's auch mal Traenen gibt
Kommt er rueber und singt fuer euch Lieder
Guildo hat Euch lieb

Es gab eine Zeit
Eine Zeit voller Zaertlichkeit
Da wurde Knuddeln und Knutschen und Lieben
Immer gross geschrieben

Ich denk' gern zurueck an die Zeit
Voller Harmonie und Glueck
Als ich taeglich in ein Poesiealbum schrieb:
Piep, Piep, Piep, Ich hab Dich lieb

Guildo hat Euch lieb
Und wenn's auch mal Traenen gibt
Kommt er rueber und singt fuer euch Lieder
Guildo hat Euch lieb

In meiner kleinen Welt
In der der eine zum anderen haelt
Und in der Deine Traenen nicht luegen
Lernen Traeume fliegen

Da waer' ich so gern
Waer' den Sternen nicht mehr all zu fern
Von dort schick ich Euch meinen Liebesbeweis
Nussecken und Himbeereis

Guildo hat Euch lieb
Und wenn's auch mal Traenen gibt
Kommt er rueber und singt fuer euch Lieder
Guildo hat Euch lieb

Guildo hat Euch lieb
Und wenn's auch mal Traenen gibt
Kommt er rueber und singt fuer euch Lieder
Guildo hat Euch lieb

Hand To Hold On To
Composer(s): John Mellencamp
Performer(s): John Cougar Mellencamp



You can laugh and joke and make fun of your friends
Spin in the middle when the troubles begin
Take it nice and easy and always pretend
That you're cool, so  cool, so cool

Say I'm alone and I'm wild and I will not be pained
Talk like a jerk or an educated brain
Be an old girl driving the young boys insane
Be a joker, a preacher it does not matter

Everyone needs a hand to hold on to 
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to
Don't need to be no strong hand
Don't need to be no rich hand
Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to

Having good luck with your financial situation
Play the ponies, be president of the United Nations
Go to work and be a Hollywood stud
Drive your four wheel drive right into the mud

Everyone needs a hand to hold on to 
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to
Don't need to be no strong hand
Don't need to be no rich hand
Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to

And them those hours when you're alone
And there's nobody there except yourself
I know it, you wanna pick up the phone
And say talk to me, talk to me
somebody please talk to me yeah

Oh yeah
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to 
Everyone needs a hand to hold on to
Don't need to be no strong hand
Don't need to be no rich hand
Everyone just needs a hand to hold on to
(repeat)

Sound Out The Galleon
Performer(s): Jon Anderson



Sound out the galleon to travel to cross
close the space between pastures
as rightly attained
As old stands to plunder
expectant as one dear companion can utter
the right we achieve

Climb summer mornings and tell me of days past
did we all to sing of the praises of love
And is one hand raised high in the dark

Total relating appointed close factors
of what we regard as the answer lies there
and is one hand raised high in the dark

There stands Olias to outward to build a ship
Holding within all we hope to retain
The frame will be so built to challenge the universe
clasped with the skins of the fish of the plain

Mastered volcano erupt with the pleasure
and sing to the power, we will sail to the East
and all hands shall rise to the call

Do Ga Riytan Sha Too Raytan

Gan Matta Sha Pa
Mutto Matto Mutto

Radan Atto Raddan Atto
Stou To Mutto Sha Go Teka

D E I

Sighting our vision Ranyart will precision us
from all our points to our destined recall
and shall all but rejoice to it all

There stands Qoquaq and shall point to the four corners
reaching out faster shall overtake you
To bring you to safety to travel away
from this moment that's rightly attained as your view

So sound out the galleon to travel to cross
close the space between pastures
as rightly attained
As old stands to plunder
expectant as one dear companion can offer
the right we achieve

Hand Me Down World
Composer(s): Kurt Winter
Performer(s): The Guess Who; Tesla



Anybody here see the noise, see the fear
And commotion
I think we missed it
Anybody here see the love, see the hate
Being motioned...

Don't give me no hand me down shoes
Don't give me no hand me down love
Don't give me no hand me down world
Got one already

Anybody here see the long distance cheer
For the notion
I think we missed it

Anybody here see the sky weeping tears
for the ocean...

Anybody here see the fuzzy-wuzzy loving cup explosion
I think we missed it
Anybody here see changing of the year-end emotion...

Don't give me no hand me down world
I don't really need it and I'm not gonna take it...

Diva
First performance by: Dana International - 1998



She is all
You'll ever dream to find
On her stage
She sings her story
Pain and hurt
Will steal her heart alight
Like a queen
In all her glory

And when she cries
Diva is an angel
When she laughs
She's a devil
She is all beauty and love

Viva Maria
Viva Victoria
Aphrodite
Viva le Diva
Viva Victoria
Cleopatra

Silent tears
Drop from these eyes tonight
Tears of prayer
For all those aching hearts

And when she cries
Diva is an angel
When she laughs
She's a devil
She is all beauty and love

Viva Maria
Viva Victoria
Aphrodite
Viva le Diva
Viva Victoria
Cleopatra

Sound Of Thunder
Composer(s): Simon Lebon - Nick Rhodes - Andy Taylor - John Taylor - Roger Taylor
Performer(s): Duran Duran



I've been in this grass here for the last 10 hours
My clothes are dirty but my mouth isn't dry
How does it happen? Does it fly through the air?
Oh I gave up asking days away
I gave up asking
Days away

And now I'm lying here waiting for the Sound of Thunder
Waiting for the Sound of Thunder
Here I am, I'm a dotted line
Cut the corner, stick me to your door
I'm the man who stepped off the path
and I just lie here
It's what I was made for

And now my eyes are closing, but I still feel the land
Leaning out for the touch of my hand
The world spins so fast that I might fly off
The world spins so fast that I might fly off
The world spins so fast, I might fly off
 
Waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder
I'm waiting for the Sound of Thunder ...

Hand In Hand Again
Composer(s): Raymond B. Egan; Richard A. Whiting
Performer(s): Midnight Syndicate



There were tears in the hour that was darkest 
The hour that came just before dawn 
But a smile lurks today 
Where a tear used to stray 
And the curtain of darkness is drawn

Not a sparrow may fall from the tree top 
Unknown to the angels above 
So then why should our fears 
Turn our smiles to tears
Heaven watches o'er all hearts that love

Ev'ry heart is lighter 
Ev'ry smile is brighter 
Sad "Adieu is changing to Hello" again 
Sorrow walk'd before us 
But a pray'r watch'd o'er us 
We stray'd far buy here we are
Hand in Hand Again
