Stay With Me Tonight Composer(s): Raymond Jones Performer(s): Jeffrey Osborne
Another morning, you are on my mind Takin' up my time through all the day I try control, every chance I see Always you with me, that's in my dreams You give me fever, love I can't explain Fire uncontained, what is this, girl? I try to fight, but I never win Seems I just give in to your embrace But oh, you try so hard not to say Oh, all the things you do to me, and girl, oh Oh, my love can't be concealed, girl, you know the deal Baby, stay with me tonight
At my apartment, you've come to the door Quarter after four AM, hello We start to kiss, ooh we start to neck You know what comes next, and you love it, girl But oh, what we have it feels so good Oh, and we both knew that it would, and girl Oh, the feeling is so right, please come hold me tight Baby, stay with me tonight
'Cause you give me special joy Oh, make me feel just like a schoolboy, girl Oh, give me feelings of delight Please turn out the light Baby, stay with me tonight, 'cause I love you You know I really do love you, girl It's been my innermost fantasy To share my love and to give my love to you through the night!
You call me crazy, maybe that is true But what can I do? I love you, girl You got me movin', movin' left and right Deep within the night, come here, my dear You give me fever, love I can't explain Fire uncontained, what is this, girl? I try to fight, but I never win Seems I just give in to your embrace
But oh, oh I pray you never leave 'Cause my heart would surely grieve so, girl Oh, and you know I would not lie, girl, you are my pride Baby, stay with me tonight 'Cause you give me special joy Oh, make me feel like a schoolboy, girl, oh Oh, the feeling is so right, please come hold me tight Baby, stay with me tonight Need you by my side, baby, stay with me tonight

First off, she's a lady, this is a lady's world Man, she drives 'em crazy, dancin' like a cheeky girl All eyes on Maria, no lie, she's the bomb Oh my, they all wanna see her All wanna be the lucky one
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Turn around, bring it down, go slow Heads up, Lord have mercy
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Ai ai ai... there she goes Maria
Yassou Maria
Moves like Aphrodite, so high above the rest Smooth like Cleopatra, an angel in a devil's dress Her hips, lust in motion, her lips, red like wine She is the heart of attention Probably should mention she's mine
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Turn around, bring it down, go slow Heads up, Lord have mercy
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Ai ai ai... there she goes Maria
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Turn around, bring it down, go slow Heads up, Lord have mercy
Shake it up, shake it up, there you go Oh oh... yassou Maria Ai ai ai... there she goes Maria
Hits Van Toen Composer(s): Jimmy Frey; W. Bellon Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Weet je nog de jaren zestig De discotrend bestond nog niet Iedereen zong de liedjes mee Men danste toen nog met z'n twee Alles leek toch zo eenvoudig Computers waren onbekend Men wist niets af van digitaal Maar dit zong men in elke zaal "Als een kus naar tranen smaakt"
Geen video of CD speler Geen turbo of zestien klep Op zaterdag moest je nog naar school De Beatles waren ons idool Meisjes droegen korte rokjes De jongens hadden heel lang haar Op zestien kreeg je een eerste zoen Luister naar een hit van toen "Zo mooi, zo blond en zo alleen"
Uitgaan met je vaders auto Dat was een gebeurtenis Je vertrok rond kwart voor acht Maar zeker thuis voor middernacht De bioscoop deed gouden zaken Men zag z'n lievelingsfilm in kleur Kermis was een feest voor jong en oud Nog een lied waarvan je houdt "Breng die rozen naar Sandra, 't is misschien niet te laat"
Het is nu al zo lang geleden Oh wat gaat de tijd toch snel Een ding blijft toch steeds uniek De kracht die uitgaat van muziek "Niemand weet hoeveel ik van je hou" Dit waren dan de hits van toen
Stay With Me Composer(s): Jerome Moross - Carolyn Leigh Performer(s): Frank Sinatra and multiple other artists
Should my heart not be humble, should my eyes fail to see Should my feet sometimes stumble on the way, stay with me Like the lamb that in springtime wanders far from fold Comes the darkness and the frost, I get lost, I grow cold I grow cold, I grow weary, and I know I have sinned And I go seeking shelter and I cry in the wind And though I grope and I blunder and I kneel and I'm wrong Though the rose buckles under where I walk, walk along Till I find to my wonder every task least to see Or that I can do it, pray, stay with me Stay with me
Oh! Every evening hear him sing It's the cutest little thing With the cutest little swing Hitchy-koo, Hitchy-koo
Oh, simply meant for Kings and Queens Don't you ask me what it means I just love that Hitchy-koo Hitchy-koo, Hitchy-koo
Say he does it just like no-one could When he does it say he does it good Oh, every evening hear him sing It's the cutest little thing With the cutiest little swing Hitchy-koo, Hitchy-koo, Hitchy-koo....

Love Or Leave Composer(s): Julija Ritcik First performance by: 4Fun - 2007
Stars in the sky When the shadows fall, when the sunlight dies Empty streets are filled with the pale lamplight We are just two lonely shades walking in the night
Words lose their sense When I feel you near, when I touch your hands I'm trying not to think that at break of dawn You'll be gone and I'll be lost, numb and all alone
When the morning comes, I'm all alone Left to live another day, in joy or sadness, on my own When the morning comes, I'm all alone Every time at break of dawn
Weak and unwise I betray all fears that I should disguise Melting in your arms, I fail to realise Why the mornings always change the colour of your eyes
When the morning comes, I'm all alone Every time at break of dawn
Love or leave, I'm with and without you How come I am up to this senseless game? How could I stop thinking about you? Love or leave, don't play with my heart again
Love or leave, I'm with and without you How come I am up to this senseless game? How could I stop thinking about you? Hey... love or leave, don't play with my heart again
Hitch A Ride Composer(s): Tom Scholz Performer(s): Boston; Smokin'
Day is night in New York City Smoke, like water, runs inside Steel idle trees to pity Every living things that's died
Gonna hitch a ride Head for the other side Leave it all behind Never change my mind Gonna sail away Sun lights another day Freedom on my mind Carry me away for the last time Oh yeah
Life is like the coldest winter People freeze the tears I cry Words of hail their minds are into I've got to crack this ice and fly
Gonna hitch a ride Head for the other side Leave it all behind Never change my mind Gonna sail away Sun lights another day Freedom on my mind Carry me away for the last time Oh yeah
Gonna hitch a ride Head for the other side Leave it all behind Never change my mind Gonna sail away Sun lights another day Freedom on my mind Carry me away for the last time Oh yeah
Unsubstantial Blues Composer(s): Magdi Rúzsa - Imre Mózsik First performance by: Magdi Rúzsa - 2007
How many times have you fooled me and denied that It's her who you love, and it sure isn't me? So now that it's over, I'll try and take it sober Leave questions unasked, remember us laughing at the broken past God, if I could make it on without you
You're such a casual man, oh, wavin' an empty hand I'm helpless and I'm lonely without you Yes, you're a casual man, lendin' an empty hand Left me breathless with nothing more to lose
I used to dream we'd take it nice and easy Get jobs, settle down in Jameson Town If now you could see me, you'd think twice about leaving You said forever is the time you gonna spend around
So why did you leave me? And why should I believe it? You say goodbye Oh, why, oh... why you leave me? Said, why?
You're such a casual man, oh, wavin' an empty hand I'm helpless and I'm lonely without you You're such a casual man, lendin' an empty hand Left me breathless with nothing more to lose
Casual man, lendin' an empty hand Left me breathless with nothing more to lose Except an evanescent unsubstantial blues
Hit The Road Jack Composer(s): Percy Mayfield Performer(s): Ray Charles
Hit the Road Jack and don't you come back No more no more no more no more Hit the Road Jack and don't you come back No more What'd you say
Old woman old woman, oh you treat me so mean You're the meanest old woman that I ever have seen Well I guess if you say so I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)
Now Baby, listen Baby, don't you treat me this-a way 'Cause I'll be back on my feet some day Don't care if you do, 'cause it's understood You got no money, and you just ain't no good Well I guess if you say so I'll have to pack my things and go (that's right)
Well ... Uh, what you say? I didn't understand you You can't mean that ... Aw now Baby Please What you trying to do to me!?

Hit The Ground Running Composer(s): Tim Finn Performer(s): Tim Finn
San Francisco New York City strangely silent strangely empty His graffiti filled the subway But where's my brother He could keep you up for hours in a town of wilting flowers I can more or less continue my life I can give in or I can try Hit the ground running Hit the ground running for your life Deadly virus so few survivors creeps up quickly leaves you darkly But where's my brother when you're standing shoulder to shoulder Fear and anger make you bolder I can more or less continue my life I can give in or I can try Hit the ground running Hit the ground running for your life He could keep you up for hours He could keep you up for hours I can more or less continue my life I can give in or I can try Hit the ground running Hit the ground running for your life I can always hit the street swaying but there's no one there to catch you when you fall Hit the ground running Hit the ground running for your life I went to the river on the Lower East Side cried and cried and cried and cried Went to the River on the Lower East Side I cry cry cry cry cried
Leave Me Alone Composer(s): Martti Vuorinen - Miikka Huttunen - Hanna Pakarinen First performance by: Hanna Pakarinen - 2007
I have to leave, but you are still sleeping There's nothing to say, our time has run out You took me to bed, that's what you were seeking But you don't even care what I am about
I wanna, I wanna wake you
Leave me alone, I wanna go home I don't wanna see you, so leave me alone Leave me alone, 'cause I feel like dyin' Leave me alone, I wanna go home The day will still come when I see you crying 'Cause you will get yours, just leave me alone
But what if I stay and wait till she comes home? She don't even know she loves you in vain The lies that you told will turn into sorrow I gotta go crazy just to stay sane
I wanna, I wanna break you
Leave me alone, I wanna go home I don't wanna see you, so leave me alone Leave me alone, 'cause I feel like dyin' Leave me alone, I wanna go home The day will still come when I see you crying 'Cause you will get yours, just leave me alone
I gotta, I gotta hate you
Leave me alone, I wanna go home I don't wanna see you, so leave me alone Leave me alone, 'cause I feel like dyin' Leave me alone, I wanna go home I couldn't care less if love just lies dying And this is goodbye, just leave me alone
Hit Somebody! (The Hockey Song) Composer(s): Mitch Albom; Warren Zevon Performer(s): Warren Zevon
He was born in Big Beaver by the borderline He started playing hockey by the time he was nine His dad took the hose and froze the back yard And Little Buddy dreamed he was Rocket Richard He grew up big and he grew up tough He saw himself scoring for the Wings or Canucks But he wasn't that good with a puck
Buddy's real talent was beating people up His heart wasn't in it but the crowd ate it up Through pee-wee's and juniors, midgets and mites He must have racked up more than three hundred fights A scout from the flames came down from Saskatoon Said, "There's always room on our team for a goon Son, we've always got room for a goon"
There were Swedes to the left of him Russians to the right A Czech at the blue line looking for a fight Brains over brawn--that might work for you But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do? But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do?
Hit somebody! was what the crowd roared When Buddy the goon came over the boards "Coach," he'd say, "I wanna score goals" The coach said, "Buddy, remember your role The fast guys get paid, they shoot, they score Protect them, Buddy, that's what you're here for
Protection is what you're here for Protection--it's the stars that score Protection--kick somebody's ass Protection--don't put the biscuit in the basket just Hit some, Buddy! it rang in his ears Blood on the ice ran down through the years The king of the goons with a box for a throne A thousand stitches and broken bones He never lost a fight on his icy patrol But deep inside, Buddy only dreamed of a goal He just wanted one damn goal
There were Swedes at the the blue line Finns at the red A Russian with a stick heading straight for his head Brains over brawn--that might work for you But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do? But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do?
In his final season, on his final night Buddy and a Finn goon were pegged for a fight Thirty seconds left, the puck took a roll And suddenly Buddy had a shot on goal
The goalie committed, Buddy picked his spot Twenty years of waiting went into that shot The fans jumped up, the Finn jumped too And coldcocked Buddy on his follow through The big man crumbled but he felt all right 'Cause the last thing he saw was the flashing red light He saw that heavenly light
There were Swedes to the left of him Russians to the right A Czech at the blue line looking for a fight Take care of your teeth--that might work for you But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do? But what's a Canadian farm boy to do? What else can a farm boy from Canada do?
