Get A Life Get Alive Composer(s): Greg Usek - Austin Howard First performance by: Eric Papilaya - 2007
Livin' in this world be a little too much Don't let it get you down, get up and strut Ooh... If you ever get the chance, hold your hand out and take it Make a promise to yourself, don't you break it
Oh, I tried to get up when I was upside down Got to find a way to turn my life around
This is the time for us to get a life Open your mind to a better life There's no way of knowin' where you're goin' Get a life, a better life
Go outta your way and make some compromise Hold to your dreams and you will realise If you don't understand it, don't take it for granted Open your mind to a better life
Let's turn up the heat, start a ripple in the water Wake the soul from its sleep, no particular order Could be wastin' precious time, free the mind, are you willin'? Don't be afraid, do your dance and start livin'
I've got a vision in mind, I'm doin' my time I'm livin' my life 'cause I've opened my mind
This is the time for us to get a life Open your mind to a better life There's no way of knowin' where you're goin' Get a life, a better life
Go outta your way and make some compromise Hold to your dreams and you will realise If you don't understand it, don't take it for granted
There's no way of knowin' where you're goin' This is the time for us to get a life
This is the time for us to get a life Open your mind to a better life There's no way of knowin' where you're goin' Get a life, a better life
Go outta your way and make some compromise Hold to your dreams and you will realise If you don't understand it, don't take it for granted
This is the time to get a life (This is the time) to get a life (This is the time) This is the time for us to get a life
Hold Me Now - 1987 (aka Don't Cry - 2006)
(Danish Version: Hold Om Mig - 1987)
Composer(s): Johnny Logan
First release by: Johnny Logan - 1987
Don't, don't close your heart to how you feel Dream, and don't be afraid the dream's not real Close your eyes, pretend it's just the two of us again Make believe this moment's here to stay
Touch, touch me the way you used to do I know, tonight could be all I'll have with you From now on you'll be with someone else instead of me So tonight let's build this memory For the last time
Hold me now, don't cry Don't say a word Just hold me now and I Will know though we're apart We'll always be together For ever in love What do you say when words are not enough
Time, time will be kind once we're apart And your tears, tears will have no place in your heart I wish I, I could say how much I'll miss you when you're gone How my love for you will go on and on
Hold me now, don't cry Don't say a word Just hold me now and try to understand that I hope at last you've found what you've been searching for And though I won't be there anymore I will always love you
Hold me now, don't cry Don't say a word Just hold me now and I Will know though we're apart We'll always be together For ever in love What do you say when words are not enough What can I say now my words are not enough
Steam Powered Aero Plane Composer(s): John Hartford Performer(s): New Grass Revival; Josh Phillips Folk Festival
Well I never went away on a Steam Powered Aero plane Well I went and stayed and damn near didn't come back again Didn't go very fast on a steam powered aero plane Oh the wheel went around, up and down, and inside and then back again
Sittin' in a 747 just watching them clouds roll by Can't tell if it's sunshine or if it's rain Rather be sittin' in a deck chair high above Kansas City On a genuine old fashioned steam powered aero plane
Well I'd like to be a pilot on a steam powered aero plane Well I'd pull that pilot wheel around and then back again Well, I'll wear a blue hat, yeah, that says Steam Powered Aero plane With letters that go around the rim and then back again

Salvem El Món Composer(s): N. Francesca - G. Gallego - A. Martínez - C. Narváez First performance by: Anonymous - 2007
Ja entenc per què tot el món va al revés I no volem trobar solucions als problemes que hi han No vulguis ser el que no ets
Sempre estàs pensant en si vius bé I no hi ha temps per lo demés El món en joc i no fas res
Tots estem d'acord ho podem fer Podem unir-nos, fer-ho bé Reflexiona tu mateix, tu mateix (One two, one two, one two three four)
Left, right, up and down, it's upside down That's how we make the world turn now Can't hide the fact that it's happening
We can do our world some good We can make a change, it's what we should Time will tell us, but we must act now (Let's go)
El problema sembla ser Que l'interès no és el mateix Arreglar d'un cop el món És possible si ho fem tots
Tots estem d'acord ho podem fer Podem unir-nos, fer-ho bé Reflexiona tu mateix, tu mateix (One two, one two, one two three four)
Left, right, up and down, it's upside down That's how we make the world turn now Can't hide the fact that it's happening
We can do our world some good We can make a change, that's what we should Time will tell us, but we must act now (Only you)
Left, right, up and down, it's upside down That's how we make the world turn now Can't hide the fact that it's happening
We can do our world some good We can make a change, that's what we should Time will tell us, but we must act now
We realise it, but we don't act 'Cause we grab on to what we have We still can act but we don't react 'Cause we only care about what we have About what we have

When you're near me I feel so romantic When you're far away I'm always blue If you want me to remain romantic Here are all the things you like to do

Thrill me, let your kisses thrill me, yeh Just like you are looking good O hold me, tenderly and fold me Never try to hold me away from you

Hold Me Composer(s): Art Hickman; Ben Black; Meyer Performer(s): Art Hickman
I must confess that I like you But there is something a miss Tell me did it ever strike you That a maid likes a man to steal a kiss Now please don't think me bold And please oh please don't scold Just simply
Some girlies just love to motor Some crave a musical show Some girls love to Fox Trot nightly I know some who are always on the go But here's what I like best I'm different from the rest Just simply
Hold me Fold me right in your arms It's your affection I crave Tease me Squeeze me tight in your arms Until I promise to behave Fill me Thrill me with tales of love And all its sweet mystic charms Then enfold me Please don't scold me Just hold me tight in your arms
Fight Composer(s): Alexandru Brasoveanu - Elena Buga First performance by: Natalia Barbu - 2007
(Never, never, never, never)
Obsession, we hide in the back And devotion's finding a way When highness exists for those people who pray
Every day is like a start Ups and downs, tears and laugh We never stop, just fight
Never let nobody in And step right on your dream If you really wanna take this trip Fighting anywhere we go To face this cruel world We gotta just fight forever
Believing, forfeiting the past The onfall's adapting the hearts Each people will know our wishes no more
Every day is like a start Ups and downs, tears and laugh We never stop, just fight
Never let nobody in And step right on your dream If you really wanna take this trip Fighting anywhere we go To face this cruel world We gotta just fight forever
Ooh...
Fighting anywhere we go To face this cruel world We gotta just fight forever
Hold Her Tight Composer(s): Alan Osmond; Wayne Osmond; Merrill Osmond Performer(s): The Osmonds
What is the matter? Now what did you do? Did you go and lose her, like the others too? Let me tell you something here's the way it goes There's a way to treat 'em everybody knows
(Chorus) Hold her tight Hold her like a baby Make her feel, make her feel real good Give a chance give her time to love ya Don't let go,if you know no one else can touch her
Everybody tells you she's the one for you So if I was you, boy here's what I'd do
Hold her tight hold her like a baby Make her feel, make her feel real good Give a chance give her time to love ya Don't let go, if you know no one else can touch her
You got to walk a little slower when you're with her Take the time to be tender, that's the plan You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces Only then can you hold her in your hand
You got to live for every moment that she gives you Make the one in a million understand You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces Only then can you hold her in your hand
Now too many faces have come down between us And I was the fool to be And I can't deny you the wide open spaces As long as she stops loving me
You got to stand a little closer when you hold her Make her feel like a woman, understand You got to stand a little taller while her world falls to pieces Only then can you hold her in your hand
When you're flirtin' with a gal Who's the sweetheart of a pal That's stealing (My darling you know that it's stealing) When you meet her every day Till you win her heart away That's stealing (I told you before that it's stealing) And if you think that you've been smart Or played a noble part Pretending you were friends when you were breaking his heart You're as guilty of a crime as a prisoner doing time For stealing, just stealing, that's all
Hold Back The Water Composer(s): Randy Bachman; Robbie Bachman; Kirk Kelly Performer(s): Bachman-Turner Overdrive; BTO Spider
Headed 'cross the border Looking for a place to play I left the sun behind I don't mind But I think that it looked like rain
Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn
Headed west to Georgia Looking for the road to L.A. They say the weather's fine But the sun don't shine 'Cause the smog's always in the way
Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn Hold back the water (Yo!) I gotta find time to burn
I've never played no smoker You know I've never played no hotdog The preacher say I was born this way With storm cloud in my heart
Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn (Whooo)
Headed 'cross the border Looking for a place to play I left the sun behind I don't mind But I think that it looked like rain
Hold back the water I gotta find time to burn
Hold back the water (Yo!) I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn I gotta find time to burn
Hold back the water (Hey!) I gotta find time to burn
Hold Back The Tears Composer(s): Chris Eaton Performer(s): Janet Jackson
So sad, but there's nothin' that I can do Things are so bad, you forget every word I've spoken to you Love is when it touches you down inside Why wait, are you lookin' for somewhere to hide?
You've gotta hold back the tears Soon you will discover maybe there could be someone who cares for you You've gotta hold back the tears Don't have to say never love will come to those who are prepared To give it back
Time will never be on your side Listen, it could be your only chance to survive This love is waiting to call you home Don't wait, you'll never be on your own
You've gotta hold back the tears Soon you will discover

Hold Back The Sun French Title: Retiens La Nuit Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Hold back the sun Let this night with you linger on Hold back the sun
Hold back the dawn tomorrow you'll be gone Under the moon this moon of love The night we share is so rare But in the light, the light of day The magic might disappear
Retiens la nuit Avec toi elle parait si belle Retiens la nuit Mon amour qu'elle devienne éternelle Pour le bonheur de nos deux curs Arrête le temps et les heures Je t'en supplie à l'infini Retiens la nuit
Hold back the sun Let this night with you linger on Hold back the sun
Hold back the dawn tomorrow you'll be gone Under the moon this moon of love The night we share is so rare But in the light, the light of day You won't be there

(Hold back the night Oooh Hold back the night)
Hold back the night Make it last At least until forever Hold back the night It is ours We are in this love together
The morning light Will break the spell Of all magic that surrounds us Here in the dark We both can hide In the miracle that has found us

How can I tear myself away When all that we feel is so right Because theres no No letting go Hold back the night
Im so afraid of losing you And to my sorrow The thought hangs over me just like a cloudy day Youre in my arms tonight But can I trust tomorrow I wish tomorrow was a hundred years away
The morning light Will break the spell Of all the magic that surrounds us Here in the dark We both can hide In a miracle that has found us

How can I tear myself away When all that we feel is so right Because theres no No letting go Hold back the night
