Anche Per Te Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists
Per te che è ancora notte già prepari il tuo caffè che ti vesti senza più guardar lo specchio dietro te che poi entri in chiesa e preghi piano e intanto pensi al mondo ormai per te così lontano
Per te che di mattina torni a casa tua perché per strada più nessuno ha freddo e cerca più di te per te che metti i soldi accanto a lui che dorme e aggiungi ancora un po' d'amore a chi non sa che farne
Anche per te, vorrei morire ed io morir non so anche per te, darei qualcosa che non ho e così, e così, e così io resto qui a darle i miei pensieri, a darle quel che ieri avrei affidato al vento, cercando di raggiungere chi... al vento avrebbe detto sì
Per te che di mattina svegli il tuo bambino e poi lo vesti lo accompagni a scuola e al tuo lavoro vai per te che un errore ti è costato tanto che tremi nel guardare un uomo e vivi di rimpianto
Dancing In The Starlight Composer(s): Matt Clifford; Mick Jagger Performer(s): Mick Jagger
I was tossing and a turning Like as ship out in the storm And I could not feel the spirit There was nothing there at all And I could not dial the number And I could not make the call
Dancing in the starlight Dancing in the strangest forms And I could not feel the spirit Was a thousand miles off course
Stumbling in the twilight There was no one there at all I was groping in the darkness Seeing dangers in the port Tortured into silence My back against the wall
Dancing in the starlight Swirling in the walls Just like Venus on the ocean The figures on the wall
If you don't take risks If you don't take a chance You're bound to fall Oh yeah sugar You will surely fall
Crying for salvation There was nothing there at all I could not dial the number And I could not make the call
Dancing in the starlight The figures on the wall You will surely fall Dancing in the starlight You will surely fall You will surely fall
Anastasia Composer(s): Herb Newman - Paul F. Webster Performer(s): Pat Boone
Anastasia, tell me who you are Are you someone from another star Anastasia, are you what you seem Do your sad eyes remember a dream
Why do you tremble and why do you sigh Could you be lonely as lonely as I Will you remember when summer has flown Another world, a world that is yours alone
Anastasia, smile away the past Anastasia, spring is here at last Beautiful stranger step down from your star I only know I love you so, whoever you are
Anastasia, Anastasia Beautiful stranger step down from your star I only know I love you so, whoever you are
Analyse Time Composer(s): Rossi - Brown Performer(s): Status Quo
I still remember when I would be the only one I used to think that I'd be a darlin' boy Never worried 'bout bad times, only wanted those good times
And then it took a nasty turn and you became the strangest one And now I look back, I didn't help at all Falling over my own feet, always taking that back seat, oh no
Hold on, it's analyse time again What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend How long before you want me again
We had our bad days but never thought that we would fall Into the same trap that other people do We were gonna be perfect, we were gonna be magic
Before we knew it there were cracks appearing in the photograph It was a time bomb, a-ticking all the while We were gonna be lovers, now we're running for cover, oh no
Hold on, it's analyse time again What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend How long before you want me again?
Calm down and get your feet on the ground Come round, we're on the same side of town Fall down, d'you want to call it an end Hold on, it's analyse time again
We gotta put it on the straight and narrow 'fore we fall apart We gotta get down and do it on our own Never worried 'bout bad times, always looking at good times, good times
Hold on, it's analyse time again What's wrong? so talk it out with a friend How long before you want me again? Calm down and get your feet on the ground Come round, we're on the same side of town Fall down, d'you want to call it an end Hold on, it's analyse time again
Yeah, analyse time again It's analyse time again It's analyse time again It's analyse time again
Sweet Dreams, Sweetheart Composer(s): M.K. Jerome - Ted Koehler Performer(s): Kitty Carlisle and multiple other artists
Goodnight sweetheart, tomorrow's another day Til then, sweet dreams sweetheart Goodnight, sleep tight, I'll see you along the way In dreams, sweet dreams sweetheart May angels up above watch over you And keep you safe my love, until the dawn breaks through Goodnight, sleep tight, tomorrow's another day Til then, sweet dreams sweetheart
Dancing In The Dark Composer(s): Arthur Schwartz; Howard Dietz Performer(s): Frank Sinatra and various other artists
Dancing in the dark Till the tune end Were dancing in the dark And it soon ends Were waltzing in the wonder Of why were here Time hurries by Were here and gone Looking for the light Of a new love To brighten up the night I have you to love And we can face the music together Dancing in the dark
What though love is old? What though song is old? Through them we can be young Hear this heart of mine Make yours part of mine Dear one, tell me that were one! Dancing in the dark!
Sweet dreams, my love Angels watching from above While the Sandman fills your eyes With sweet dreams, my love and goodnight
Sweet dreams, my love Listen to the little dove Singing you a lullaby Sweet dreams, my love and goodnight
While the stars are glowing Like candles in the blue Close your eyes, my darling I will dream of you, my darling
Sweet dreams, my love Angels watching from above While the Sandman fills your eyes With sweet dreams, my love and goodnight
While the stars are glowing Like candles in the blue Close your eyes, my darling I will dream of you, my darling
Sweet dreams, my love Angels watching from above While the Sandman fills your eyes With sweet dreams, my love and goodnight Sweet dreams, my love and goodnight Wooh-oooh-oooh ...
Dancing Days Composer(s): Jimmy Page; Robert Plant Originally performed by: Led Zeppelin Covered by various other artists
Dancing days are here again As the summer evenings grow I got my flower, I got my power I got a woman who knows
I said it's all right You know it's all right I guess it's all in my heart You'll be my only, my one and only Is that the way it should start?
Crazy ways are evident In the way you're wearing your clothes Sippin' booze is precedent As the evening starts to glow
You know it's all right I said it's all right You know it's all in my heart You'll be my only, my one and only Is that the way it should start? Dude!
You told your mamma I'd get you home But you didn't say that I had no car I saw a lion he was standing alone With a tadpole in a jar
You know it's all right I said it's all right I guess it's all in my heart heart heart You'll be my only my one and only Is that the way it should start?
Dancing days are here again As the summer evenings grow You are my flower, you are my power baby You are my woman who knows
I said it's all right You know it's all right I know it's all in my heart You'll be my only yes, my one and only yes Is that the way it should start? I know it is yeah!
Ana, La Dulce Composer(s): Miguel Mateos Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Dulce Ana, con tan sólo 16 Dulce Ana, tiempo de burlar la ley Oh oh oh, no hay escuela esta mañana no hay caricias en la cama Sólo tu dulce cara contra la ventana y digo oh oh oh Descalza en el corredor papá y mamá no hacen más el amor por eso quién tiró la naranja contra el pizarrón
Dulce Ana, rock`n roll en un cassette Dulce Ana, un espejo y tu sostén Oh, oh, oh Papá golpeando en la mesa su puño vuelca la cerveza sobre un dibujo obsceno en tu cuaderno bueno y digo oh oh oh saliste corriendo a la calle llevando tiza de color y dibujaste en el muro un sol, un tren y el rostro de la felicidad
Ah..! Ana adónde vas toda pintada y ese vestido Ah..! Ana a qué hora llegas quién es el tipo del clarinete?
Oh oh oh un bolsón y una manzana un amigo en la ventana Janis Joplin y Mozart abriendo la cama y digo oh oh oh la nena está dejando casa hagan algo por favor una puerta cerró un sol, un tren y el rostro de la felicidad
Dulce Ana, dulce Ana por eso quién tiró la naranja contra el pizarrón Dulce Ana, dulce Ana un sol, un tren y el rostro de la felicidad
Dancing Bear Composer(s): John Phillips Performer(s): The Mamas & The Papas; Avalon Rising; Broceliande
I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep All black from head to foot From climbing in them chimneys And cleaning out that soot With a broom and ladder and pail The darkened walls I scale And far..and high... I see a patch of sky
I'd rather be the gypsy (I'd rather be the gypsy) Whose camped at the edge of town (Camped at the edge of town) The one who has the dancing bear That follows him around And he lifts his big foot up He puts his big foot down And bows...and twirls... And dances `round and `round
I found I was a cabin boy last night as I did dream Bound upon a magic ship for a land I'd never seen And the moon she filled our sails And the stars they steered out course And on our bow there was a golden horse
The queen eats fruit and candy; the bishop nuts and cheese And when I am a grown man, I'll taste just what I please The honey from the bee, the shellfish from the sea The earth, the wind, a girl, someone to share these things with me
I wouldn't want to be a chimney sweep... (I'd rather be the gypsy ...) (I dreamed I was a cabin boy ...)
Stuck On You Composer(s): Ray Stevens Performer(s): Ray Stevens
Well it all started back About a week or two I bought this instant Wonder Glue I'd seen it work on TV and I just had to try me some
Well when I got home I spilled the stuff And I reached for a towel to wipe it up And that towel stuck to my hand like another thumb
And as if that wasn't trouble enough Here come Rover chasing Fluff
And that cat jumped up And stuck right to my knee
(He doesn't have a knee!)
Well I reached down to hold the dog away And I touched his ear and that's where my hand stayed And he lit out a yelping dragging the cat and me
Well running through the house We knocked the bird cage down
And the parakeet got loose and was flying all around And finally landed and stuck to the top of my head
And I was tryin' to be careful, but I just wasn't able And we were stickin' to ashtrays, lamps n tables And I was wishin' that I had bought a roll Of Duct Tape instead
Well I finally fell exhausted into a chair And then you came in and found me there With the bird on my head and my hand on the dog And the cat stuck to my knee
And you said the scene looked Heaven sent that I looked like a man perfectly content A regular St. Francis of Asissi And before I could stop you You laid a big kiss on me
Now Honey, I'm stuck on you Yes I'm stuck on you I'm stuck to the dog And stuck to the cat And stuck to the parakeet too
Ever since I bought that tube of Instant Wonder Glue Everything has stuck on me And now I'm stuck on you
Well I got to thinkin' sittin' there that day How did they make that stuff anyway I mean there must be workers Stuck all over the factory
I bet there's shoes on the floor and shirts on the walls And hat's on the ceiling and all up and down the halls Why just gettin' this stuff in the tube Has got to be a miracle to see
Now if we could ever make it to the telephone And get the paramedics out to our home Maybe they could surgically remove you and the dog And the cat and the parakeet
And as soon as we're all healed up enough We're gonna sneak into the plant where they make that stuff And for revenge we'll put instant Wonder Glue On all their toilet seats
Hee Hee Hee ...
Until then I'm stuck on you Yes I'm stuck on you I'm stuck to the dog And stuck to the cat And stuck to the parakeet too
Ever since I bought that tube of Instant Wonder Glue Everything has stuck on me and now I'm stuck on you Ohhh, I'm stuck on you, yes I'm stuck on you I'm stuck to the dog and stuck to the cat And stuck to the parakeet too
Ever since I bought that tube of Instant Wonder Glue Everything has stuck on me and now I'm stuck on you
Als De Zon Schijnt Composer(s): R. Ortolani; M. Franc; André van Duin Performer(s): André van Duin
Als ie boven aan de hemel staat is 't net of alles beter gaat Alles ziet er anders uit als de zon schijnt Iedereen komt uit z'n winterslaap door die mooie rooie koperen knaap Alles ziet er anders uit als de zon schijnt Niemand is zich meer van kwaad bewust, alle narigheid wordt uitgeblust O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt En de allergrootste pessimist wordt een veelgevraagde humorist O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt
Heel de wereld is een bloemtapijt, en de buurvrouw een mooie meid Alles ziet er anders uit als de zon schijnt Zilveren vogels vliegen door de lucht, ieder drama wordt een dolle klucht Alles ziet er anders uit als de zon schijnt Alle ziekenhuizen raken leeg, en de bakkersvrouw rolt door het deeg O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt Ja, de wereld krijgt een nieuwe kleur, overal hangt zo'n zalig, zoete geur O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt
O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt En terrasjes zitten overvol, alle mensen raken uit hun bol O wat is het leven fijn in de zon Als de zon er toch niet was geweest was er nooit een reden voor een feest O wat is het leven fijn als de zon schijnt
Ana De Amsterdam Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Rey Guerra Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Sou Ana do dique e das docas Da compra, da venda, da troca de pernas Dos braços, das bocas, do lixo, dos bichos, das fichas Sou Ana das loucas Até amanhã Sou Ana Da cama, da cana, fulana, bacana Sou Ana de Amsterdam
Eu cruzei um oceano Na esperança de casar Fiz mil bocas pra Solano Fui beijada por Gaspar
Sou Ana de cabo a tenente Sou Ana de toda patente, das Índias Sou Ana do oriente, ocidente, acidente, gelada Sou Ana, obrigada Até amanhã, sou Ana Do cabo, do raso, do rabo, dos ratos Sou Ana de Amsterdam
Arrisquei muita braçada Na esperança de outro mar Hoje sou carta marcada Hoje sou jogo de azar
Sou Ana de vinte minutos Sou Ana da brasa dos brutos na coxa Que apaga charutos Sou Ana dos dentes rangendo E dos olhos enxutos Até amanhã, sou Ana Das marcas, das macas, da vacas, das pratas Sou Ana de Amsterdam
Dancing Barefoot Composer(s): Ivan Kral; Patti Smith Originally performed by: Patti Smith Covered by various other artists
She is benediction She is addicted to thee She is the root connection She is connecting with he
Here I go and I don't know why I fell so ceaselessly Could it be he's taking over me...
Chorus: I'm dancing barefoot Heading for a spin Some strange music draws me in Makes me come on like some heroin/e
She is sublimation She is the essence of thee She is concentrating on He, who is chosen by she
Here I go and I don't know why I spin so ceaselessly Could it be he's taking over me...
(Chorus)
She is re-creation She, intoxicated by thee She has the slow sensation that He is levitating with she...
Here I go and I don't know why I spin so ceaselessly Could it be he's taking over me...
(Chorus)
(Oh God I fell for you)
The plot of our lives sweats in the dark like a face The mystery of childbirth, of childhood itself Grave visitations What is it that calls to us? Why must we pray screaming? Why must not death be redefined? We shut our eyes and we stretch out our arms and whirl on a pane of glass An afixiation a fix on anything The line of life the limb of a tree The hands of he and the promise that she is blessed among women
