Diamond Of Night Composer(s): Priit Pajusaar - Glen Pilvre - Maian-Anna Kärmas First performance by: Evelin Samuel & Camille - 1999
Silently glowing, moonbeams are sowing silver, silver starry-eyed skies Burning in fire, words of desire linger, linger, long in disguise
Diamond of night, burning so bright, guide me my silvery new sign Finding my way as I pray, now I can say it is my time
Voices are calling, whilst stardust falling, reveries, reveries lighten his heart Silently blazing, stars so amazing, heavenly, heavenly fire from a spark
Diamond of night, burning so bright, guide me my silvery new sign Finding my way as I pray, now I can say it is my time
Diamond of night, burning so bright, guide me my silvery new sign Finding my way as I pray, now I can say it is my time
Diamond of night, burning bright, now I can say it is my time
Happy Good Morning Blues Composer(s): Bruce Cockburn Performer(s): Bruce Cockburn
Good day to you Fat balloon man May you always have air You sing a song everybody can believe
Good day to you Uncle tom cat Out to trick the whole world You carry a tune for nobody but yourself
Bonjour à toi Herr policeman May your boots always fit Someday you'll find a song you can believe
Good morning good people The sun is long sailing The only clouds you see Are carried within Soon they'll be blown all away Wind's gonna rise and blow those clouds away Wind's gonna rise and blow your blues away Your sun's gonna shine in my back door Some day ...
Soy Composer(s): Honorio Herrero Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Al llegar primavera te quiero inocente sin embargo en otoño te quiero impaciente Un verano tan rojo me queman tus ojos y en la paz del invierno me quitas el sueño Y te quiero en la lluvia y te quiero en el viento y me mata de amor el latir de tu cuerpo Y te quiero de noche y te quiero de día y te adoro despierta y te añoro dormida Y te amo en la luna y a la luz de una estrella o en el más apartado rincón de la tierra Yo te quiero de un modo que no te imaginas y por ti vendería mi sangre y mi vida Soy, un satélite tuyo soy, un lucero en tu noche soy, una estera en tus mares soy, una chispa en tu fuego soy, pañuelo de lágrimas soy, tu señor y tu esclavo... Soy Y te quiero en el tiempo segundo a segundo y minuto a minuto te sigo queriendo Y te amo semanas y meses y años y los siglos futuros sabrán que te he amado el espacio infinito se queda pequeño comparado con todo el amor que te tengo Soy, un satélite tuyo soy, un lucero en tu noche soy, una estera en tus mares soy, una chispa en tu fuego soy, pañuelo de lágrimas soy, tu señor y tu esclavo... Soy

Selâm, selâm, hand in hand on the journey to Jerusalem
Selâm, selâm, laßt uns geh'n auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte
Schon als ich ein Kind war, spielten wir dieses Spiel Reise nach Jerusalem, einer nur kommt ans Ziel Denn wenn der Rhythmus plötzlich schweigt Heißt das, es ist vorbei, kein Platz mehr frei
Selâm, selâm, laßt uns geh'n auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte
Wir haben einen Traum, der nie die Kraft verliert Leben ist eine Reise, die nach morgen führt Frieden ist mehr als nur ein Spiel bei dem nur einer gewinnt Weil wir Menschen sind
Selâm, selâm, laßt uns geh'n auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte
We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land Barýþ olsun diye yürüyelim el ele We walk hand in hand to a peaceful land Dost kalýrsak eðer yarýþamaya deðer And if we stay friends, a dream will live forever Ve bir zaman, hedefe vardýðýmýz an, irgendwann kommen wir an
Selâm, selâm, laßt uns geh'n auf die Reise nach Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Selâm, selâm, here we go again on the journey to Jerusalem Selâm, selâm, hadi gidelim Kudüs'e hep birlikte Selâm, selâm, hand in hand on the journey to Jerusalem
What do we all read a story book for What do we look for, when it is through? What does every Cinderella sigh for What does she try for, till dreams come true?
Happy ending, with all our troubles behind Happy ending, that's what we're trying to find! Why didn't Cinderella waver? What made her braver? She knew the Prince would come and save her!
Happy ending, the best of wonderful times Always ending, just like in nursery rhymes! May each thing you pray for bring you Joy and laughter, ever after Happy ending to you all!

Happy ending, happy ending Give me a story with a happy ending When boy meets girl and then They never part again But live forever happily, like you and me
Har luck stories gets me so upset Like Romeo, and Juliet I'm not smart enough to figure why Some folks enjoy, a real good cry
Happy ending, happy ending Give me a story with a happy ending When boy meets girl and then They never part again But live forever happily, like you and me
Never thought that I would stand a chance That you'd give me, a second glance Funny thing how fate can play the part And give a guy, a helping heart
Happy ending, happy ending Give me a story with a happy ending When boy meets girl and then They never part again But live forever happily, like you and me
When boy meets girl and then, they never part again But live forever happily, like you and me

Souviens-Toi De Nous Composer(s): Francis Cabrel Performer(s): Francis Cabrel
Quelquefois au fond de ma mémoire Il m'arrive de te revoir Juste à mes côtés Derrière nous dix huit ans à peine Et devant les immenses plaines De l'éternité On avait l'eau des cascades Et des lits d'herbe mouillée J'écrivais des ballades Pour te réchauffer Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Toi qui t'es envolé Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Dans ton palais doré Et dis-moi s'il se passe autant de choses Dans ton palais de marbre rose Ta plage privée Est-ce que tu entends le chant des cascades Autour de tes miroirs de jade Où tout ferme à clé Mais rappelle-toi les orages Quand nos cheveux s'emmêlaient Sous les grands arbres sauvages Où l'on s'abritait Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Toi qui t'es envolé Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Dans ton palais doré Mais quelquefois au fond de ta Rolls noire Il m'arrive de te revoir Ils sont tous à tes pieds Je sais qu'ils se battent pour te plaire Mais tu ne les aperçois qu'au travers De tes verres fumés, fumés Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Toi qui t'es envolé Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Dans ton palais doré Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Toi qui t'es envolé Ouh, souviens-toi de nous Sinon tu vas tomber
Reflection Composer(s): Dave Moskin First performance by: Bobbie Singer - 1999
When I'm sad, I need a shoulder to cry on When I'm bad, you know that I am better When you're gone, you're the one that I'm thinking of When I come, it's to you that I run
There's no need to be lonely I'll be there everytime for you Isn't that the way it's supposed to be? Well, sometimes memories will have to do
But don't you recognise me? Oh... I'm the one that you have seen The reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes
They say it's a long way to heaven But they're wrong, 'cause heaven is you If I fall from grace everlasting There you are to make everything new
We can fly forever Wrap yourself around my emotions It's only getting better and better Don't ever think to doubt my devotion
But don't you recognise me? Oh... I'm the one that you have seen The reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes, the reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes, the reflection in your eyes
Oh... reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes
But don't you recognise me? Oh... I'm the one that you have seen The reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes, the reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes, reflection in your eyes The reflection in your eyes
Happy Days And Lonely Nights Composer(s): Fred Fisher; Billy Rose Performer(s): Perry Como & The Fontane Sisters; and various other artists
My memory takes me to The wonderful nights we knew When I made love to you until the dawn You left and to my surprise I'm laughing with tear dimmed eyes Because I realise I can't go on my darling
With the parting of the ways You took all my happy days And left me lonely nights Morning never comes too soon I can face the afternoon But oh, those lonely nights I feel your arms around me Your kisses linger yet You taught me how to love you Now teach me to forget! You broke my heart a million ways When you took my happy days And left me lonely nights
The beautiful month of May Without you is sad and grey Oh, how I hate the day, I let you go I find that my happiness Depends on your sweet caress I thought I lov'd you less But now I know, my darling
With the parting of the ways You took all my happy days And left me lonely nights Morning never comes too soon I can face the afternoon But oh, those lonely nights I feel your arms around me Your kisses linger yet You taught me how to love you Now teach me to forget! You broke my heart a million ways When you took my happy days And left me lonely nights
Souviens-Toi De M'oublier Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg Performer(s): Cathérine Deneuve; Serge Gainsbourg; Maurice Garrel
Souviens-toi de m'oublier J'vais y penser Réfléchis comme un miroir J'vais voir Et souviens-toi de m'oublier J'vais essayer L'amnésie a le pouvoir D'la magie noire
Souviens-toi de m'oublier Et quand je pleurerai Fais un nud à ton mouchoir Pour ta mémoire Et souviens-toi de m'oublier J'vais y penser Les flash-back c'est comme voir Des films noirs
Souviens-toi de m'oublier Ouais j'vais y penser Réfléchis comme un miroir J'vais voir Et souviens-toi de m'oublier J'vais essayer Tu sais bien qu'il va falloir Ne plus nous voir

Tonight's the night I've waited for Because you're not a baby anymore You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen Happy birthday sweet sixteen
What happened to that funny face My little tomboy now wears satin and lace I can't believe my eyes you're just a teenage dream Happy birthday sweet sixteen
When you were only six I was your big brother Then when you were ten We didn't like each other When you were thirteen You were my funny valentine But since you've grown up Your future is sewn up From now on you're gonna be mine, so
If I should smile with sweet surprise It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen Happy birthday sweet sixteen
If I should smile with sweet surprise It's just that you've grown up before my very eyes You've turned into the prettiest girl I've ever seen Happy birthday sweet sixteen

When You Need Me Composer(s): Bronagh Mullan First performance by: The Mullans - 1999
And you would always be there In everything I'd do But the fool that I am Never tried to understand
When you needed someone To help you through the rain But this child inside of me Never let me feel your pain
And how I've let it all just slip away And now I'm wishing for yesterday
Don't you go on your own Don't leave me here alone 'Cause I'll be there Yes, I swear When you need me I'll be there Don't you go I'm on my own Don't you go
You've been my inspiration All along the way But I can see it in your eyes Well, there's no more yesterday
But I will find my way back No matter what it takes For the first time I can see The love you lost on me
Don't you go on your own Don't leave me here alone 'Cause I'll be there Yes, I swear When you need me I'll be there Don't you go, no, no
And now I've let it all just slip away But the fool, the fool's inside of me
Don't you go on your own Don't leave me here alone 'Cause I'll be there Yes, I swear When you need me I'll be there Don't you go I'm on my own Don't you go

Happy Birthday, Leonid Brezhnev Composer(s): Joan Baez
Happy birthday, Leonid Brezhnev What a lovely seventy-fifth We watched the party on TV You seemed to be taking things casually What a mighty heart must beat in your breast To hold forty-nine medals on your chest Think of all the gifts that you've got Some were acquired and some were not Like a natural talent for marionettes Who do your dirty work and cover your bets So with one hand waving free The other one crushed a budding democracy
Congratulations, Jaruzelski What a wonderful job you have done Let me mention to a sane man's eye You've lost the meaning of compromise They're comparing you to General Pinochet It's a dubious compliment at best Your people are freezing, the workers are bleeding You've already arranged numerous deaths The only difference in the camps from the stadiums Is not much for the doomed all cry It's only the weather and the songs people sing Just before they die
Do you hear us, Lech Walesa? What a terrible price you have paid For being ahead of your time Has surely constituted a crime Oh, Mr. Brezhnev, look Somebody read the little red book And took it all seriously The way you did when you were young and you believed And you workers and you black Madonna You're not supposed to utter a word But the courage of you and your man of the year Is a symphony the world has seldom seen or heard Through the Siberian gates of hell The Pope and the bishops are wishing you well We see your candles in the park Hear your fearless promises in the dark How they cheat and when tried to win They didn't know that there would always be within you And we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa Yes, we hear you, Lech Walesa
