Serenata Serena Composer(s): Nick Munro; Roger Whittaker Performer(s): Roger Whittaker
Serenata Serena I can hear your voice so clear I can feel your love descending Reaching to touch my heart so far apart
Serenata Serena How I wish I'd had the time Just to bring our souls together Now it's to late, your gone so far so long
Just to shake your hand to try to understand why we never found the time to talk together I listen to the trees Your voice upon the breeze Oh, dad I always wonder why until I die, until I die
Serenata Serena Can you hear my voice so clear? Can you feel my love ascending? Reaching across the stars to where you are So pure and oh, so far to where you are
Hard Hearted Hannah Composer(s): Jack Yellen; Milton Ager; Bob Bigelow; Charles Bates Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald and multiple other artists
In old Savannah, I said Savannah The weather there is nice and warm! The climates of a Southern brand But here's what I don't understand They got a gal there, a pretty gal there Who's colder than an Arctic storm Got a heart just like a stone Even ice men leave her alone!
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah The vamp of Savannah The meanest gal in town Leather is tough, but Hannah's heart is tougher She's a gal who loves to see men suffer! To tease 'em, and thrill 'em, to torture and kill 'em Is her delight, they say I saw her at the seashore with a great big pan There was Hannah pouring water on a drowning man! She's Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA!
They call her Hard Hearted Hannah The vamp of Savannah The meanest gal in town Talk of your cold, refrigeratin' mamas Brother, she's a polar bear's pajamas! To tease 'em, and thrill 'em, to torture and kill 'em Is her delight, they say An evening spent with Hannah sittin' on your knees Is like travelin' through Alaska in your BVDs She's Hard Hearted Hannah, the vamp of Savannah, GA!
Can you imagine a woman as cold as Hannah She's got the right name The vamp of Savannah Any time a woman can take a great big pan And start pouring water on a drownin' man She's hard hearted Hannah The Vamp of Savannah GA

Heart Of Stone Composer(s): Andy Hill; Peter Sinfield Performer(s): Cher
Beneath the white fire of the moon Love's wings are broken all too soon We never learn Hurt together, hurt alone Don't you sometimes wish Your heart was a heart of stone We turn the wheel and break the chain Put steel to steel and laugh at pain We're dreamers in castles made of sand The road to Eden's overgrown Don't you sometimes wish Your heart was made of stone Look at the headlines Big crowd at the crazy house Long queue for the joker's shoes Ten rounds in the ring with love Do you lose and win Or win and lose Sweet rain like mercy in the night (Lay me down, wash away the sorrow) Caress my soul and set it right (Lay me down, show me your tomorrow) Summer tears, winter and the moment's flown Dont' you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone Mercy, mercy wish your heart Was a heart of stone Get the picture No room for the innocent Peak season in lonely town Knocked out of the ring by love Are you down and up Or up and down I ask the river for a sign (In a dream we go on together) How long is love supposed to shine (In a dream diamonds are forever) But you and I, hurt together, hurt alone Don't you sometimes wish Your heart was a heart of stone Mercy, mercy wish your heart was a heart of stone (With a heart of stone, you'll be well protected) Don't you sometimes wish your heart was made of stone (With a heart of stone, you'll be well connected) (Repeat)

I know a woman a head like a rock If she was my girl I'd run I wouldn't walk Oh yeah, ever since the world began a hard headed woman been a thorn in the side of man
Ragazzo Solo, Ragazza Sola (Adapted from: Space Oddity - 1969) Composer(s): David Bowie - Mogol Performer(s): Computers - 1969
La mia mente ha preso il volo Un pensiero, uno solo Io cammino mentre dorme la citta'
I suoi occhi nella notte Fanali bianchi nella notte Una voce che mi parla chi sara'?
Dimmi ragazzo solo dove vai Perche' tanto dolore? Hai perduto senza dubbio un grande amore Ma di amori e' tutta piena la citta'
No ragazza sola, no no no Stavolta sei in errore Non ho perso solamente un grande amore Ieri sera ho perso tutto con lei
Ma lei I colori della vita Dei cieli blu Una come lei non la trovero' mai piu'
Ora ragazzo solo dove andrai La notte e' un grande mare Se ti serve la mia mano per nuotare Grazie ma stasera io vorrei morire Perche' sai negli occhi miei C'e' un angelo, un angelo Che ormai non vola piu' che ormai non vola piu' Che ormai non vola piu' C'e' lei I colori della vita Dei cieli blu Una come lei non la trovero' mai piu'
Heart Of My Heart (aka The Gang That Sang Heart Of My Heart)
Composer(s): Ben Ryan
Performer(s): The Four Aces
and multiple other artists
I sometimes wish I was a kid again Down in the old neighbourhood Just to be with Charlie, with little Joe and Pete Boy, we had a quartet that was mighty hard to beat I'd love to stand down by that cellar door Just to hear that Quartet sing once more....
"Heart of my heart", I love that melody "Heart of my heart" brings back a memory When we were kids on the corner of the street We were rough and ready guys But oh, how we could harmonise
"Heart of my heart" meant friends were dearer then Too bad we had to part I know a tear would glisten If once more I could listen To the gang that sang "Heart of my heart"
Hard Headed Man Composer(s): Cathy Lemons Performer(s): Cathy Lemons
I'm gonna' pack up all my things Head on down the road I'm gonna' pack up all my things Head on down the road I have taken all I can And I just can' take no more!
I got a hard headed man Upsets me all the time I got a hard headed man Upsets me all the time No, he don't see things the way I do And I do believe I'll lose my mind
All I ever wanted Was for you to take me as I am All I ever wanted for you to take me as I am You want me to change my ways And I don't believe I can
You a hard headed man Ya well you finally met your match You a hard headed man Well you finally met your match Now I'm headin' down the road And there won't be no looking back
Envie De Vivre First performance by: Nathalie Sorce - 2000
Comment vivre sans amour? Comment vivre sans amour? Comment vivre l'envie de vivre?
Au delà-des pensées, au-delà de l'amour Il nous faut partager bien autre chose chaque jour Sous les foudres du temps en colère depuis deux mille ans Ce qui reste debout, ce n'est pas nous
Entre le bien, le mal, bien d'autres sentiments Suivent la seule étoile à la gloire du dieu vivant À travers les passions et défiant toutes les saisons Ce qui reste debout ce n'est pas nous, mais
L'envie de vivre pour l'Eternité L'envie de vivre nous a dépassés L'envie de vivre restera gravée Comme dans un livre qu'on a oublié
Mais on ne peut survivre dans un monde sans amour Les portes de la vie en auront besoin chaque jour Comment pourrait-on voir un sourire dans chaque regard Si la case départ est dénuée de tout espoir?
Alors je veux vivre, vivre pour donner L'envie de vivre et l'envie d'aimer
L'envie de vivre pour l'Eternité L'envie de vivre nous a dépassés L'envie de vivre restera gravée Comme dans un livre qu'on a oublié
Comment vivre sans amour? Comment vivre sans amour? Comment vivre l'envie de vivre?
Heart Of Mine Composer(s): Bobby Caldwell; Dennis Matkosky; Jason Scheff Performer(s): Boz Scaggs
One day you may Find true love that will last forever Never, tell them you'll spend a lifetime wishing on together You never thought she'd say goodbye Then you will never understand the reasons why
Heart of mine How will you keep from dying Stop reminiscing Who is she kissing Heart of mine Oh what's the use in trying No-one can mend you now
Love plays fool games Who can believe she's found another Lover, does she miss me Sometimes you just cant help but wonder No you can't hold the hands of time Then you will always be the one She left behind
Heart of mine How will you keep from dying Stop reminiscing Who is she kissing Heart of mine Oh what's the use in trying No-one can mend you now
Then you will never understand the reasons why Heart of mine How will you keep from dying Stop reminiscing Who is she kissing Heart of mine Oh what's the use in trying No-one can mend you now
Heart of mine (Oh heart of mine) Heart of mine Heart of mine Heart of mine
Harcelez-Moi Composer(s): Claude Moine; Pierre Papadianmandis Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
En c'moment, pour moi c'est pas terrible Je n' suis pas l' profil, pas la cible Cadre ou pas, j' travaill', je suis soumis Mais mon chiffre d'affaires est tout p'tit Sexuellement, j'suis pas trop r'gardant Réussir mérite un élan
{Refrain:} Hey, harcelez-moi Passez sur mon corps J' balanc'rai pas Hey, harcelez-moi J' prendrai tous les torts Même l'avocat
J'suis prêt à tout, j' peux apprendr' la grande cuisine Proxénète le jour et la nuit devenir drag queen Ou bien speakerine pour vendre au télé-achat Ou faire la nurse pour enfants, les chiens, les chats Etre homme de main, d'compagnie, ou valet d' pied Y'en a même qui l'prennent sans vouloir s'faire payer Moi tout c'que j'veux, c'est que je sois déclaré Urssaf, fiche de paye, j'veux tout collectionner
J' me mets sur l' marché, d' la vie active Je prends conscience, j' positive Crise ou pas, j'espère, je suis confiant J' vais pas glander, très longtemps Relancer notr' économie Mais avant tout me faire crédit
Space Monkey Composer(s): Ivan Král - Patti Smith - Tom Verlaine Performer(s): Patti Smith
Blood on the T.V., ten o'clock news Souls are invaded, heart in a groove Beatin' and beatin' so outta time What's the mad matter with the church chimes? Here comes a stranger up on Ninth Avenue Leanin' green tower, indiscreet view Over the cloud, over the bridge sensitive muscle, sensitive ridge of my space monkey. Sign of the time-time Space monkey, so outta line-line Space monkey, sort of divine And he's mine, mine, all mine
Pierre Clementi, snot full o' cocaine The sexual streets, why it's all so insane Humans are running, lavender room Hoverin' liquid, move over moon for my space monkey. Sign of the time-time Space monkey, sort of divine-vine Space monkey, so out of line and he's mine, mine, oh he's mine
A stranger comes up to him; hands him an old, rusty Polaroid It starts crumbling in his hands He says, "Oh man, I don't get the picture This is no picture This is just...this just-a...this just-a... This is my jack-knife This is my jack-knife This is my jack-knife This is my jack"
Rude excavation, landin' site Boy hesitatin', jack-knife He rips his leg open, so out of time Blood and light runnin' It's all like a dream Light of my life, he's dressed in flame It's all so predestined It's all such a game for my space monkey Sign of the time-time Space monkey, sort of divine-vine Space monkey, so out of line and it's all just space, just space
There he is, up in a tree Oh, I hear him callin' down to me That banana-shaped object ain't no banana It's a bright, yellow U.F.O. And he's coming to get me Here I go Up, up, up, up, up, up, up ,up, up ... Oh, goodbye mama I'll never do dishes again Here I go from my body Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha, Ha Help!
Heart Of Gold Composer(s): Bob Nolan Performer(s): Vera Lynn
You have a heart that right from the start was filled with a love for me, yes just for me You helped me bear my trouble and care With your sweet, sweet sympathy
A lady sweet and old You're lovely to behold For though your hair is grey with care You have a heart of gold
I'm glad that I have you To tell my troubles to You helped me so because I know You have a heart of gold
You're kind and sweet in all you do And when the world was hard to you You smiled and let the sunshine through That's why I love you so
Your years of service hold The sweetest story told And though your brow is silver now You have a heart of gold
When the day is dying and all the world is still Shadows come acreeping from each rock and rill Golden bars from sunset land tint the hills aglow Soft breezes whisper of days long ago Voices from shadowland call me it seems, I wander on 'mid sylvan streams Gliding on mem'rys ship thru twilight land Into the Harbor of Dreams
Angel eyes are watching thru stars way up above Nightingale is singing a carol of love Night has drawn her mantle o'er land and o'er the sea Weaving a haze of fond mem'ries for me Drifting along where my dream river flows My eyelids close in sweet repose Guiding me onward, my beacon light gleams Into the Harbor of Dreams
Back thru the years of smiles and tears I sail away at close of day And I journey a far to the land of moonbeams And anchor at last in the Harbor of Dreams
Solo Composer(s): Andrew Lane, Brandon Barnes First performance by: Alsou - 2000
Sitting alone, here in my room Staring at your picture from midnight till noon Counting the hours, counting the days You know that I'll miss you in a million ways
Now I wait in the cold and this is getting old No more stories, no more lies, take me off this ride When you see me in the hall, I'll look at the wall By my actions you should know I'm going solo Going solo
My friends try to tell me, I didn't want to listen 'Cause I'm the kind of person gotta find out on my own I gave you my heart, you tore it apart But I'm coming back strong, I knew it was wrong
Now I wait in the cold and this is getting old No more stories, no more lies, take me off this ride When you see me in the hall, I'll look at the wall By my actions you should know
Now I wait in the cold and this is getting old No more stories, no more lies, take me off this ride When you see me in the hall, I'll look at the wall By my actions you should know I'm going solo Going solo
Now I wait... Wait in the cold and this is getting old No more stories, no more lies, take me off this ride When you see me in the hall, I'll look at the wall By my actions you should know
Now I wait in the cold and this is getting old No more stories, no more lies, take me off this ride When you see me in the hall, I'll look at the wall By my actions you should know I'm going solo
Heart Of Gold Composer(s): Neil Young Performer(s): Neil Young
I want to live, I want to give I've been a miner for a heart of gold It's these expressions I never give That keep me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old
I've been to Hollywood, I've been to Redwood I crossed the ocean for a heart of gold I've been in my mind, it's such a fine line That keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old Keeps me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old
Keep me searching for a heart of gold You keep me searching for a heart of gold And I'm getting old I've been a miner for a heart of gold
Space Is Deep Composer(s): Dave Brock Performer(s): Hawkwind
Space is dark, it is so endless When you're lost it's so relentless It is so big, it is so small Why does man try to act so tall Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
It does not feel, it does not die Space is neither truth nor lie Into the void we have to travel To find the clue which will unravel Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
The secret lies with our tomorrow In each of us is a hidden sorrow The path goes onward through the night Beyond the realms of ancient light Is this the reason, deep in our minds?
Heart Of Glass Composer(s): Deborah Harry; Chris Stein Performer(s): Blondie
Once I had a love and it was a gas Soon turned out had a heart of glass Seemed like the real thing, only to find Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
Once I had a love and it was divine Soon found out I was losing my mind It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
In between "what I find is pleasing" and "I'm feeling fine" Love is so confusing There's no peace of mind if I fear I'm losing you It's just no good, you teasing like you do Lost inside Adorable illusion and I cannot hide I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside We coulda made it cruising, yeah Yeah, riding high on love's true bluish light
Once I had a love and it was a gas Soon turned out to be a pain in the ass Seemed like the real thing only to find Mucho mistrust, love's gone behind
