    A Nation Once Again
    Composer(s): Thomas Osbourne Davis
    Performer(s): The Irish Tenors



    When Boyhood's fire was in my blood
    I read of ancient freemen
    When Greece and Rome who Bravely stood
    Three hundred men and three men
    And then I prayed I might yet see
    Our fetters rent in twain
    And Ireland long a province be
    A Nation Once Again

    A Nation Once Again
    A Nation Once Again
    And Ireland long a province be a nation once again

    And from that time through wildest woe
    That hope has shone a far light
    Nor could love's brightest glow
    Outshine that solemn starlight
    It seemed to watch above my head in forum, field and fane
    It's angels voice sang `round my bed
    A Nation Once Again

    A Nation Once Again
    A Nation Once Again
    And Ireland long a province be a nation once again

    It whispered too that freedom's ark
    And service high and holy
    Would be profane by feeling dark
    For passions vane or lowly
    But freedom comes from God's right hand
    And needs a Godly train
    And rightous men must make our land
    A Nation Once Again

    A Nation Once Again
    A Nation Once Again
    And Ireland long a province be a nation once again

    So as I grew from boy to man
    I bent me to that bidding
    My spirit of each selfish plan
    And cruel passion ridding
    For thus, I hoped one day to aid
    Oh can such hope be vain?
    When my dear country shall be made
    A Nation Once Again

    A Nation Once Again
    A Nation Once Again
    And Ireland long a province be a nation once again

    How Many Times Do I Have To Tell You?
    Composer(s): Harold Adamson; Jimmy McHugh
    Performer(s): Dick Haymes



    How many times do I have to tell you
    That you’re the person that I adore?
    How many times do I have to tell you
    And not repeat what I have said before?

    How many ways can I say I miss you
    And skip the ever familiar rhymes?
    How many times do I have to kiss you?
    Don’t make it less than a million times

    I’ve said over and over and over and over again
    That you are my one obsession
    But I’d be willing to say it again and again
    If I thought it would make an impression

    How many dreams do I have to sell you
    To make the one in my heart come true?
    How many times do I have to tell you
    Before you know I’m in love with you?

    How many dreams do I have to sell you
    To make the one in my heart come true?
    How many times do I have to tell you
    Before you know I’m in love with you?

    A Must To Avoid
    Composer(s): Steve Barri - P.F. Sloan
    First release by: Herman's Hermits - 1966
    Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages:
    1966 - Les Petites Choses (by Claude François)
    1966 - Uno Solo Di Noi (by I Camaleonti)



    She's a must to avoid
    A complete impossibility
    She's a must to avoid
    Better take it from me

    You'll think she's a prize at the start
    But take my advice, play it smart
    She's nothin' but trouble
    Better cut out on the double
    Before she gets into your heart

    She's a must to avoid
    A complete impossibility
    She's a must to avoid
    Better take it from me

    When you stare into her pretty blue eyes
    There's no way to see through her disguise
    But don't try to love her 'cause you'll quickly discover
    You're trapped in the web of her lies

    She's a must to avoid
    A complete impossibility
    She's a must to avoid
    Better take it from me

    Her lips look inviting it's true
    But lots of other guys have felt like you do
    She'll build up your hopes and when you need her the most
    That's when she'll say goodbye to you

    She's a must to avoid
    A complete impossibility
    She's a must to avoid
    Better take it from me

    How Many Times Can We Say Goodbye
    Composer(s): Steve Goodman
    Performer(s): Luther Vandross; Dionne Warwick



    Here we are so close to the end now
    Still holding on and trying to pretend now
    Clinging to love we both know is dying
    We've tried and tried to find the solution
    But Darling
    All our dreams have been played out
    Still we go on hopelessly trying

    How many times can we say good-bye
    How many times can we see love die
    How many times can we give it one more try
    Before we really say good-bye
    Good-bye

    We're so in love but wrong for each other
    Each hurt that heals brings on another
    Both of us abusing
    Both of us using
    Darling
    It's time to stop pretending
    There's just no way to rewrite our ending
    We're caught in this game
    And we both know we're losing, but

    How many times can we say good-bye
    How many times can we see love die
    How many times can we give it one more try
    Before we really say good-bye
    Good-bye
    Good-bye

    How many times can we breakup and makeup
    Both of our hearts refusing to wake up
    Just can't go on and on
    Living a lie
    Though I'll always love you

    How many times can we say good-bye
    How many times can we watch love die
    How many times can we give it one more try
    Before we really say good-bye
    Good-bye
    Bye-bye
    Good-bye
    Bye-bye

    Good-bye

    A Mulher De Cada Porto
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Edú Lobo
    Performer(s): Edú Lobo



    Ele:
    Quem me dera ficar meu amor, de uma vez
    Mas escuta o que dizem as ondas do mar
    Se eu me deixo amarrar por um mês
    Na amada de um porto
    Noutro porto outra amada é capaz
    De outro amor amarrar, ah
    Minha vida, querida, não é nenhum mar de rosas
    Chora não, vou voltar

    Ela:
    Quem me dera amarrar meu amor quase um mês
    Mas escuta o que dizem as pedras do cais
    Se eu deixasse juntar de uma vez meus amores num porto
    Transbordava a baía com todas as forças navais
    Minha vida, querido, não é nenhum mar de rosas
    Volta não, segue em paz

    Os Dois:
    Minha vida querido (querida) não é nenhum mar de rosas

    Ele:
    Chora não

    Ela:
    Segue em paz

    How Many Tears
    Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
    Performer(s): Bobby Vee; Carole King



    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)

    How many tears can you cry when you're sad and lonely?
    And how many tears can you cry when someone makes you blue?
    That's a question I'm still unable to answer
    'Cause I can't stop my cryin' over you

    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)

    How many lies can you can you count when you just can't sleep at night?
    And how many lies can you count before your heart is free?
    That's a question I'm still unable to answer
    'Cause I'm still countin' the lies you told to me

    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)

    There's just no end to all the broken promises that I recall
    I was a fool to fall for you
    It hurts to know you played a game and went and had yourself a ball
    And through it all made me blue

    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)

    How many tears can you cry when it all is over?
    And how many tears can you cry when you want someone new?
    That's a question I'm still unable to answer
    'Cause I can't stop my love for you

    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)
    (Yum diddy dum diddy um)
    That's a question I'm still unable to answer
    'Cause I can't stop my love for you

    How many tears..................

    A Moving Story
    Composer(s): Chris Difford - Glenn Tilbrook
    Performer(s): Squeeze



    She moved from Clapham
    And didn't look back
    Her life was changed in an instant
    The van was filled up
    And tied to the rack
    Her home that now seemed so distant
    Kissing goodbye
    To her friends on the stairs
    She felt a loss deep within her
    Sat in the front seat with stuff everywhere
    The neighbours said they would ring her
    They moved to the sea front
    And loved their new view
    Of tides coming in on the shingle
    She and her daughter
    Found new things to do
    At last it was good to be single
    And in the summer
    The place came alive
    Lights on the pier in the evening
    The fresh sea air
    And could cut with a knife
    Such a wonderful feeling

    She worked in a pub
    Where bands would appear
    On a tiny stage in the corner
    She watched them load in
    With tattered old gear
    The place would get like a sauna
    London had gone now
    Her new life was strong
    She found herself a new karma
    She fell for a man
    Who played with a band
    And took her life from it's drama

    She moved from Clapham
    And didn't look back
    The past was neatly extinguished
    He was much younger
    But she lived with that
    He struggled hard with his english
    She felt his loving
    And proudly reclaimed
    All of the warmth she'd been lacking
    They lay in bed
    Looking out at the rain
    No more moving or packing

    She moved from Clapham
    And didn't look back
    Her life had changed in an instant

    How Many Teardrops
    Composer(s): Rick Rodell
    Performer(s): Lou Christie



    How many teardrops must I cry till you believe in me?
    And how many teardrops must I dry to end this misery?

    I wanna know: how many teardrops must I cry yi yi yi yi
    Must I cry, have to fall
    To say you're mine (you're mine) only mine (you're mine)
    Mi yi yi yi yi yine

    I wish I knew the reason why you've gone & made me blue
    You didn't even tell me that you and I were through
    I wanna know: how many teardrops must I cry
    Must I cry, have to fall
    To say you're mine (you're mine) only mine

    It's all a part of a little game that you had cooked up for me
    Tryin' to find out just how much you really mean to me
    If that's the reason for leavin', there's no reason to explain
    'Cause baby, I really need you like the roses need the rain

    I wanna know: how many teardrops must I cry yi yi yi yi
    Must I cry, have to fall
    To say you're mine (how many teardrops)
    Oh must I cry (how many teardrops)
    Oh must I cry (how many teardrops)

    A Mother's Way
    Composer(s): Reg Keating
    Performer(s): Foster & Allen



    It's just a mother's way
    To worry through the day
    'Bout every little thing
    Like falling off a swing
    When you are out at play

    The years slide quickly by
    The Summers seem to fly
    And then you move along
    You break out on your own
    But you don't see her cry

    For a while she hides behind a smile
    But then her eyes reveal
    She worries still today

    Take her hand
    Show her you understand
    A little tenderness will go a long, long way

    And now the years have flown
    She's sitting all alone
    With all her photographs and memories of the past
    She's glad when you come home

    For a while she hides behind a smile
    But then her eyes reveal
    She worries still today

    Take her hand
    Show her you understand
    A little tenderness will go a long, long way

    For a while she hides behind a smile
    But then her eyes reveal
    She worries still today

    Take her hand
    Show her you understand
    A little tenderness will go a long, long way
    A little tenderness will go a long, long way

    A Mother's Love Is A Blessing
    (Traditional)



    An Irish boy was leaving
    Leaving his native home
    Crossing the broad Atlantic
    Once more he wished to roam
    And as he was leaving his mother
    Who was standing on the quay
    She threw her arms around his waist
    And this to him did say

    A mother's love's a blessing
    No matter where you roam
    Keep her while she's living
    You'll miss her when she's gone
    Love her as in childhood
    Though feeble, old and grey
    For you'll never miss a mother's love
    Till she's buried beneath the clay

    And as the years go onwards
    I'll settle down in life
    And choose a nice young colleen
    And take her for my wife
    And as the babes grow older
    And climb around my knee
    I'll teach them the very same lesson
    That my mother taught to me

    A mother's love's a blessing
    No matter where you roam
    Keep her while she's living
    You'll miss her when she's gone
    Love her as in childhood
    Though feeble, old and grey
    For you'll never miss a mother's love
    Till she's buried beneath the clay

    If all the guys you ever knew
    Were standing here in front of you
    I wonder just how many there would be?

    If everyone you ever kissed
    Was put on paper in a list
    I wonder just how many there would be?

    You must have kissed a million
    For everywhere we go
    You seem so well acquainted
    The way they smile and say "hello"

    If I could count their broken hearts
    Like I would have if we should part
    I wonder just how many there would be?

    A Mother's Love
    Composer(s): Toshifumi Hinata - Bill Wray - Diana Ross
    Performer(s): Diana Ross



    In a world of make believe
    You can change all that you see
    But in the world of reality
    You've taught me all that I need

    Time like a river flows
    Twisting and turning all the way
    Life is an endless road
    You've been with me day by day

    The only way I can thank you
    Is to be the best that I can be
    If we hold on together
    Just you and me

    A mother's love is forever
    A mother's love is for free
    It doesn't matter if you're good or bad
    She's there for whatever you need

    In the world of fantasy
    Hold on to your dreams
    Open up your heart and see
    All the love you need is me

    Time like a river flows
    Twisting and turning all the way
    Life is an endless road
    You've been with me day by day

    You are you and I am me
    You've made me all that I am
    Heart to heart and hand to hand
    Always there to understand

    A mother's love is forever
    A mother's love is for free
    It doesn't matter if you're good or bad
    She's there for whatever you need

    Doesn't matter if you're good or bad
    There's nothing like a mother's love

    How Lucky You Are
    Composer(s): Desmond O'Connor; Eddie Cassen
    Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters;
    and various other artists



    As you walk, as you talk with the one you love
    Do you know just how lucky you are?
    When you stroll hand in hand ‘neath the moon above
    Does your heart sing how lucky you are?

    There’re so many heartaches in this world of ours
    But sometimes a dream will come true

    When the one that you love is in love with you
    That’s the greatest of blessings by far
    And you don’t know how lucky you are.

    There’re so many heartaches in this world of ours
    But sometimes a dream will come true

    When the one that you love is in love with you
    That’s the greatest of blessings by far
    And you don’t know how lucky you are

    Mother's Lament (aka Your Baby Has Gone Down The Plughole)
    (Traditional)
    Performer(s): Martin Carthy; Cream



    A mother was bathin' her baby one night
    The youngest of ten, a poor little mite
    The mother was fat and the baby was fine
    T'was nawt but a skellington wrapped up in skin

    The mother turned round for the soap from the rack
    She weren't gone a minute, but when she got back
    Her baby had gone, and in anguish she cried
    "Oh, where is my baby?", and the angels replied

    Your baby has gorn dahn the plug'ole
    Your baby has gorn dahn the plug
    The poor little thing was so skinny and thin
    He shoulda been bathed in a jug

    Your baby is perfik'ly happy
    He won't need no bathin' no more
    He's workin' his way through the sewers
    Not lost, just gone on before

    Your baby has gorn dahn the drainpipe
    And the chlorine is bad for his eyes
    He's havin' a swim, and it's healthy for him
    He needed the exercise

    Don't worry 'baht 'im, just be 'appy
    For I know he is suff'rin' no pain
    Your baby has gorn dahn the plug'ole
    Let's hope he don't stop up the drain

    How Lovely Cooks The Meat
    Composer(s): Josef Marais
    Performer(s): Doris Day & Frankie Laine



    Frankie:
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    When I get back home to eat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    I smell it far away
    And I thought of it all day
    She's cookin' the meat for me
    What a meal it's gonna be

    Doris:
    Oh, I cooked a lovely meal
    To my man it will appeal
    When he comes in through the door
    He will love me even more

    Frankie:
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    When I get back home to eat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    I smell it far away
    And I thought of it all day
    She's cookin' the meat for me
    What a meal it's gonna be

    Doris:
    Oh, the stove is much too hot
    Now the steak has big black spots
    And I hope it won't be tough
    'Cos my man must get enough

    Frankie:
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    When I get back home to eat
    Oh, how lovely cooks the meat
    I'm comin' through the door
    I cannot wait no more
    An' at the table take my seat
    And put my teeth into that meat

    Doris:
    Oh, my dear, your teeth are strong
    And I hope that I'm not wrong
    Though the steak is burnt and tough
    I am sure you'll get enough

    Frankie:
    Oh, how lovely is my wife
    Oh, how lovely is my wife
    I will keep her all my life
    Oh, how lovely is my wife

    Doris: I'll learn to cook someday
    Frankie: Yes, and then she'll pay her way
    Both:
    But between us there's no strife
    She's/I'm a lovely, lovely wife
    How lovely cooks the meat

    A Mother Doesn't Matter Anymore
    Composer(s): Charles Strouse - Lee Adams



    So, it's come at last
    At last it's come, the day I knew would come at last has come, at last
    My sonny-boy doesn't need me any longer
    Well, what are you waiting for?
    Get rid of me, put me out with the garbage
    Just throw me out with the used grapefruits and the empty cans from the tuna fish
    And never mind putting a lid on it
    Leave it open so a hundred thousand pussycats can walk all over a mother
    Who bronzed your baby shoes?
    Kissed ev'ry little bruise?

    Who picked your dirty socks up off the floor?
    You coughed and who was there?
    It's just too hard to bear
    A mother doesn't matter anymore
    With bunions on my feet
    I trudged through snow and sleet
    To bring your lic'rice from the corner store
    I sold my Tiffany lamp
    So you could go to camp
    Now a mother doesn't matter anymore

    That's it, I'm ready to go and I don't want you to spend a cent
    Fancy funerals are for rich people
    Just wrap me in a flag and throw me in the river on mother's day

    And precious, by the way
    The doctor called today
    What I got's a condition
    Yes he's sure
    There's nothing they can do
    I'll last a week or two
    Because for a condition there's no cure
    That time you caught the croup
    Who made you chicken soup
    And read you "Bambi" till her throat was sore?
    You sacrifice your life, then, Bang!
    You get the knife
    Now a mother doesn't matter anymore

    There, I feel better now
    Everything is as it should be
    A mother is lying on top of a sanitation truck, bound for the city dump
    And a son is running around with a floozie who came looking for a good time
    And stayed to ruin an American woman's life

    Who gave up nights of rest
    To rub Vicks on your chest?
    Who nursed her sonny boy till he was four?
    My life has been in vain
    This country's down the drain
    'Cause a mother doesn't matter
    No, a mother doesn't matter
    Yes, a mother doesn't matter anymore

    How Long Is Too Long?
    Composer(s): Tony Asher; John Bahler
    Performer(s): The Partridge Family



    You tell me you are through with him
    You'll soon be free just to be with me
    So I'll stay by the phone

    I'm waitin' every night at home
    Watching tv shows and honey
    Heaven knows I'm always alone

    Tho' you never call me
    I keep on loving you
    Hoping that if I do, you're gonna love me too
    And I won't have to wait too long

    But how long is too long
    I got to know, you're makin' me lose my mind
    How long is too long
    Hopin' everything will turn out okay
    How long is too long
    To sit around and wait till you come my way

    I see you walkin' around with him
    Holdin' hands and makin' plans
    You're never apart

    I see the way you look at him
    When you're in a crowd
    I know it makes him proud
    While it's breakin' my heart

    And all the time you tell me
    Keep on lovin' you
    And if I do, you're gonna love me too
    And I won't have to wait too long

    How long is too long
    I've got to know, you're makin' me lose my mind
    How long is too long
    Cause baby I've been waitin' a long long time
    How long is too long
    Hopin' everything will turn out okay
    How long is too long
    To sit around and wait till you come my way

    A Montanha
    Performer(s): Roberto Carlos



    Eu vou seguir uma luz lá no alto
    Eu vou ouvir uma voz que me chama
    Eu vou subir a montanha e ficar bem mais perto de Deus
    E rezar
    Eu vou gritar para o mundo me ouvir e acompanhar
    Toda minha escalada e ajudar
    A mostrar como é o meu grito de amor e de fé
    Eu vou pedir que as estrelas não parem de brilhar
    E as crianças não deixem de sorrir
    E que os homens jamais se esqueçam de agradecer

    Por isso eu digo
    Obrigado, Senhor, por mais um dia
    Obrigado, Senhor, que eu posso ver
    Que seria de mim sem a fé que eu tenho em você

    Por mais que eu sofra
    Obrigado, Senhor, mesmo que eu chore
    Obrigado, Senhor, por eu saber
    Que tudo isso me mostra o caminho que leva a você

    Mais uma vez
    Obrigado, Senhor, por outro dia
    Obrigado, Senhor, que o sol nasceu
    Obrigado, Senhor, agradeço obrigado, Senhor

    Por isso eu digo
    Obrigado, Senhor, pelas estrelas
    Obrigado, Senhor, pelo sorriso
    Obrigado, Senhor, agradeço obrigado, Senhor

    Mais uma vez
    Obrigado, Senhor, por um novo dia
    Obrigado, Senhor, pela esperança

    Por isso eu digo
    Obrigado, Senhor, pelo sorriso
    Obrigado, Senhor, pelo perdão
    Obrigado, Senhor, agradeço obrigado, Senhor
