Everybody Composer(s): Ivar Must - Maian-Anna Kärmas First performance by: Tanel Padar & Dave Benton - 2001
All right - Hey hey... Well, are you ready? - You bet But are you ready? - Oh yeah All right - You give it to them now
Well, every night's a Friday night - Aha... what night? Ladies, this sure feels right - I guess this is party time The two of us will sing again - Two of us together again The heart is young and we know when - Young and handsome, they say Come on, Dave
To kick the sadness out the door - To kick the sadness out the door And roll the carpet from the floor - Haha... carpet from the floor, yeah Let the spirit hit the roof - I hit the roof, I hit the roof The two of us still know the moves
And not even time can take away The starlight from us, no, it won't fade Still we believe that we were made to laugh and sing
Come on, everybody, let's sing along And feel the power of a song Come on, everybody, let's feel the spark That always stays within our hearts Come on, everybody, and let it out And live the moment, here and now Come on, everybody, 'cause here's a chance To feel so light, to laugh and dance
A little rollercoaster ride - He's goin' for a ride now Right into the starry night - Around and around and around we go And leave the windows open wide - Why nobody can't stay? And let the music pour inside - Aha...
Not even time can take away The starlight from us, no, it won't fade Still we believe that we were made to laugh and sing
Come on, everybody, let's sing along And feel the power of a song Come on, everybody, let's feel the spark That always stays within our hearts Come on, everybody, and let it out And live the moment, here and now Come on, everybody, 'cause here's a chance To feel so light, to laugh and dance
Look at us now here together again We started out long time ago - We knew back then The music within us could never, could never end All right
Oh yeah... - Let's sing along Y'all come on - Come on, everybody Come on, come on - Na na na na yeah yeah... Come on, come on - One more time, yeah
Come on, everybody, let's sing along And feel the power of a song Come on, everybody, let's feel the spark That always stays within our hearts Come on, everybody, and let it out And live the moment, here and now Come on, everybody, 'cause here's a chance To feel so light, to laugh and dance
Heavenly Homes Composer(s): Bill Nelson Performer(s): Be Bop Deluxe
The stars are burning And the moon is shining bright The world is turning underneath This canopy of night... Somewhere tomorrow warms the distance With the light of dawn You yawn, my love Your eyes are growing tired The dawn must come although we will deny it I'd like to hold you here Beneath these clouds of darkest blue It could be a million years Before the day comes creepin' through But in the meantime Let the moonshine shine I'm fine my love, but tell me How are you...? You know that in the end it all comes true... Heavenly homes are hard to find Heavenly thoughts in heavenly minds Are not the world's design
Have I Stayed Away Too Long? Composer(s): Frank Loesser Performer(s): Perry Como; and various other artists
Have I stayed away too long? Have I stayed away too long? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin'? Or, have I stayed away too long?
The love light that shone so strong Sweet love light that shone so strong If I came home tonight, would that same light be shinin'? Or, have I stayed away too long?
I'm just outside of town I'll soon be at your door But maybe I'd be wrong to hurry there I'd best keep out of town, and worry you no more For, maybe someone else has made you care
Have all of my dreams gone wrong? My beautiful dreams gone wrong? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin'? Or, have I stayed away too long?
I'd best keep out of town, and worry you no more For, maybe someone else has made you care
Have all of my dreams gone wrong? My beautiful dreams gone wrong? If I came home tonight, would you still be my darlin'? Or, have I stayed away too long?

Heaven Will Protect An Honest Girl Composer(s): R.P. Weston; Bert Lee; Harris Weston Performer(s): Gracie Fields
On the day I left the village, my dear Mother whispered, "Nell" Take this piece of bread and dripping and your fare And remember when in London, though you're just a servant gel You're a blonde, the sort that gentlemen ensnare With your youth and fatal beauty, when you get to Waterloo There'll be crowds of dukes and millionaires all waiting there for you
Heaven will protect an honest gel An an-gi-el will guard you, little Nell When these rich men tempt you, Nelly With their spark-el-ling Moselly Say "Nay! nay!" and do be very care-fu-el! And if some old bloated blase roue swell Says 'I'll kiss you, we're alone in this hotel' Breathe a prayer he shall not do it And then biff him with the cruet Then Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
When I got to wicked London in my little clogs and shawl And my but of bread and dripping in my hand I went up to that big Lifeguard on his horse outside Whitehall And I asked him to direct me to the Strand But he didn't even answer; he just sat there with his sword In a helment that had whiskers on, so I said, "Thank the Lord---for
Heaven will protect an honest gel" And I reached Picadilly safe and well There I saw a red light glowing But across I started going When a P'liceman pulled me back I nearly fell "You're a silly little fool," he starts to yell "Don't you know what that red light means?" I said, "Well Red's for danger, if you please, sir But don't switch it on for me, sir 'Cause Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
Optional second verse chorus (or first chorus of third verse if three verses are used)
Heaven will protect an honest gel That night I got a job at some hotel But the chef was most improper For he sat me on the copper And said "Kiss me or I'll boil you, little Nell" But I slapped him on the face---and in I fell And I came up for the third time with a yell "In the soup I'm going to simmer But I'll come out clean and slimmer For Heaven will protect an honest gel!"
I wandered round Li-cester Square from six o'clock till nine But no millionaire came tempting me to stray "If he does", I thought, "I'll let him take me to the Ritz to dine Then I'll gollop up his tripe and run away" Eeh by gum! I did feel hungry! Eeh! I hadn't had a bite Since my bit of bread and dripping, and I knew that Ma was right---for
Heaven will protect an honest gel Next day I pawned my shawl in Camberwell Then my skirt and blouse, I sold 'em And went tramping back to Oldham When a fortnight passed, then I rang at the bell "Eeh, but Mother dear," I said, "it's little Nell I have lost my sole---my uppers too, as well--- And I've walked home in my undies But I'll tell my Class on Sundays That Heaven will protect an honest gel!"

Wer Liebe Lebt First performance by: Michelle - 2001
Sommersonnenschein, der in dein Zimmer fällt Hell und warm, dich umarmt Und der Schattenblick, der deine Tage trübt Wird auf einmal wieder klar
Feuer wird aus Eis, wenn dich ihr Zauber leise berührt Und ein grauer Tag strahlt mit einem Mal Und du hörst die Melodie voll Gefühl und voll Poesie
Wer Liebe lebt, wird unsterblich sein Wer Liebe lebt, ist niemals allein Such sie an jedem neuen Tag
Mal lächelt sie dich an Und wird ein Leben lang nah dir stehen Mmm... mal liegt das ganze Glück in einem Augenblick Und du suchst die Melodie voll Gefühl und voll Poesie
To live for love means you'll never die To live for love for all of your life You'll see forever's here to stay
You'll see forever's here to stay Forever's here to stay
Have A Word Composer(s): Ian Dury; Gallagher; Rhys-Jones Performer(s): Ian Dury
Gotta sign the rent book Gotta do the laundry Then there's the electric The water and the gas Haven't stopped moaning Since we had the phone in The television rental Another bloody hass
Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills
Got a rotten head-ache Ready for a breakdown The pressure of the pressure Is more than I can bare The awfulness is spreading It's really done my head in I think I've been selected For more than my fair share
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem
Putting pen to paper Applying for a loan Ain't got no collateral Nor's a cat in hell The bailiff's on the knocker I'm going off my rocker And as regards contentment I haven't had a smell
Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Working till you drop, till you pay your bills
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem
Go up to the top of a very high mountain Go up to the top of a fresh air hill You can never stop when the money is counting Worry till you drop, till you pay your bills
Go into the heart of the fresh air valley Go and have a drink from the mountain stream Go and have a word before you go doolally Have a Dicky Bird with your self-esteem

Speak softly, love and hold me warm against your heart I feel your words, the tender trembling moments start We're in a world, our very own Sharing a love that only few have ever known

Speak softly, love so no one hears us but the sky The vows of love we make will live until we die My life is yours and all because You came into my world with love so softly love
Wine-coloured days warmed by the sun Deep velvet nights when we are one

Estoy sintiendo tu perfume embriagador Y tus palabras susurrar a media voz Y soy feliz al comprender Que está llamando a mi puerta el amor Por eso mi mundo es Amanecer de un nuevo sol Intensamente estoy viviendo la emoción Que ha desbordado el volcán de tu ilusión Y al escuchar tu corazón Entre mis brazos lo he fundido con mi amor Por eso hoy... Nosotros somos el milagro del amor Que ha de vivir eternamente entre los dos Y al manantial de la ilusión Del que bebemos solamente tú y yo
Heaven Only Knows Composer(s): Paul Kennerley Performer(s): Emmylou Harris
Every night it's the same I feel your heart turn cold as rain And know that you'll be gone again I hear the front door close You say you got to go downtown I guess there's someone else you've found So why you're still coming round Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows
I've heard it said that talk is cheap But still your words they cut so deep Lay me crying in my sleep And the pain just grows I don't know who's right or wrong But all we had is dead and gone So why you keep me hanging on Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows
I'm going to turn and walk away There's nothing left for me to say It wouldn't change things anyway Though, I suppose The love I gave was always true Well, I don't know what else to do And how I'll ever get over you Heaven only knows
Heaven only knows just why loving you should make me cry Make me feel like I could die That's the way it goes Heaven only ever sees How love's made a fool of me I guess that's how it's meant to be but Heaven only knows

Beyond the clouds the sky is always blue
Have a little faith and love will come to you
So don't be lonely and don't be blue Your one and only is somewhere waitin' just for you With two lovin' arms to hug your neck Is right around the corner where you least expect She'll be there with love to pull you through Just have a little faith and love will come to you

Heaven On Their Minds Composer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; Tim Rice Performer(s): Andrew Lloyd Webber; and various other artists
Judas: My mind is clearer now - at last all too well I can see where we all soon will be If you strip away the myth from the man You will see where we all soon will be Jesus! You've started to believe the things they say of you You really do believe this talk of God is true And all the good you've done will soon get swept away You've begun to matter more than the things you say Listen Jesus I don't like what I see All I ask is that you listen to me And remember - I've been your right hand man all along You have set them all on fire They think they've found the new Messiah And they'll hurt you when they find they're wrong I remember when this whole thing began No talk of God then - we called you a man And believe me - my admiration for you hasn't died But every word you say today Gets twisted round some other way And they'll hurt you if they think you've lied Nazareth your famous son should have stayed a great unknown Like his father carving wood - he'd have made good Tables, chairs and oaken chests would have suited Jesus best He'd have caused nobody's harm - no-one alarm Listen Jesus do you care for your race? Don't you see we must keep in our place? We are occupied - have you forgotten how put down we are? I am frightened by the crowd For we are getting much too loud And they'll crush us if we go too far Listen Jesus to the warning I give Please remember that I want us to live But it's sad to see our chances weakening with every hour All your followers are blind Too much heaven on their minds It was beautiful but now it's sour Yes it's all gone sour
Have A Happy Composer(s): Ben Weisman; Florence Kaye; Dolores Fuller Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Now once it was told to me We're born with a magic key It opens the door to miracles of Spring
It takes you to wishing wells To ice cream and carousels And yet this magic key won't unlock a thing
Unless... you have a happy, yeah, have a happy Mmm, have a happy, warm smilin' face Now start believin' in believin' Let your address be Sunshine Place
There's love and there's joy untold Much more than your heart can hold It's there like the ring you grab on a merry-go-round
The world isn't half as grey With friends on a rainy day But people keep away when you wear a frown
You've got... to have a happy, yeah, have a happy Have a happy, warm smiling face Mmm, start believin' in believin' Let your address be Sunshine Place Let your address be Sunshine Place Let your address be Sunshine Place

Heaven On The 7th Floor Composer(s): Dominic Bugatti; Frank Musker Performer(s): Paul Nicholas
"Goin' up?" she said, uh-huh Just as we were startin' to climb together Ooh-ooh, lookin' up I said, "Uh-huh Maybe I could see you tonight?"
She said "Never!" Ooh-ooh, I was out of luck But ten seconds later somehow We got stuck in that elevator
Heaven on the 7th floor (Hey baby) Heaven on the 7th floor (I ain't complainin') But I've never been so high before So please don't rescue me Never set me free Hey, hey, hey
"We're alone" I said, uh-huh "Looks like we could be here all night together", ooh-ooh "There's a phone" she said, uh-huh "Gonna have us out in five minutes time whatever" "Please could you make it ten" I told the operator "I'm havin' so much fun in this elevator"
Heaven on the 7th floor (Hey baby) Heaven on the 7th floor (I ain't complainin') But I've never been so high before So please don't rescue me Never set me free Hey, hey, hey
And as the Muzak played, sooner or later I knew We'd fall in love in that elevator
Heaven on the 7th floor (Hey baby) Heaven on the 7th floor (I ain't complainin') But I've never been so high before So please don't rescue me Never set me free Hey, hey, hey
