Anima Mia ((Adapted from: Anima Mia (I Cugini di Campagna) - 1973)) ((Swedish Version: Ett Liv I Solen (Frida) - 1975)) Composer(s): Ivano Michetti - Flavio Paulin - Antonello De Sanctis - Boris Bergman Performer(s) : Dalida - 1974
Anima mia Fille au cur sauvage nn t'aimait bien On ne t'a pas toujours comprise Anima mia Reviens au village Rien n'a changé de ta maison jusqu'à ton lit
Les pieds nus comme l'enfant qui vient de loin Elle quitte ses vingt ans pour presque rien Pareil à ces vieux soleils qui fuit la pluie Son cur cherche un asile un paradis
Tout comme ces mélodies que l'on dit folles Auxquelles ils ne manquent que la parole Comme une ombre elle a survie cet inconnue Qu'a-t-elle a perdre un été de plus
Le corps lourd d'avoir connu trop de caresses Et dans les yeux la peur des lendemains Elle est de celles qui par manque de tendresse Ne hochent plus la tête pour dire non
Anima mia Fille au cur sauvage on t'aimait bien On ne t'a pas toujours comprise Anima mia Reviens au village Rien n'a changé de ta maison jusqu'à ton lit
Elle sait bien que derrière les volets fermés Ceux qui n'ont jamais su comment l'aimer Cet homme que tu suis est ta dernière chance Car après lui, dis adieu à ton enfance
Anima mia Fille au cur sauvage on t'aimait bien On ne t'a pas toujours comprise Anima mia Reviens au village Rien n'a changé de ta maison jusqu'à ton lit
Anima mia Fille au cur sauvage on t'aimait bien On ne t'a pas toujours comprise Anima mia Reviens au village Rien n'a changé de ta maison jusqu'à ton lit
De Beste
((Adapted from: The Best (Bonnie Tyler) - 1988))
Composer(s): Holly Knight - Mike Chapman - Liliane Saint-Pierre
Performer(s): Liliane Saint-Pierre - 1998
Ik zoek je, ik vind je Mijn hart dat brandt Je ziet me, je wil me Je lacht galant Je komt naar mij Zo verzekerd van jezelf
Je danst en je praat Drukt me tegen je aan In je ogen verdwaal ik Ik kan niet weerstaan Oooh, het is te laat 'k Geef me over, laat me zelf gaan
You're simply the best Beter dan al de rest Beter dan iedereen Zoals jij ken ik geeneen
Verslaafd aan je hart 'k Wil bij je blijven, dag en nacht Ga er nooit vandoor Mmmmm, want dan ben ik veel liever dood
In m'n hoofd zegt een stem Het is jouw echte man In jouw ogen zie ik Dat dit echt lukken kan Ah in je armen alleen vind ik rust, weet ik zeker Hier ben ik thuis
Je bent simply the best Beter dan al de rest Beter dan iedereen Zoals jij ken ik niet één
Verslaafd aan je hart 'k Wil bij je blijven, dag en nacht Ga er nooit vandoor Want dan ben ik veel liever dood
Mmmm, telkens je weggaat sla ik helemaal door Verlies ik mezelf Leef, maar weet niet waarvoor 'k kan niet eten, slapen Hoor wat ik zeg Oh hemel, dit is echt
Beter dan al de rest Beter dan iedereen Zoals jij ken ik niet één
Oh verslaafd aan je hart 'k Wil bij je blijven, dag en nacht Ga er nooit vandoor Want dan ben ik veel liever dood Mmmm, je bent simply the best
Ett Liv I Solen ((Adapted from: Anima Mia (I Cugini di Campagna) - 1973)) ((French Version: Anima Mia (Dalida) - 1974)) Composer(s): Ivano Michetti - Flavio Paulin - Antonello De Sanctis - Matt Paulson Performer(s): Frida - 1975
Nä r regnet öser ner från mörka skyar Och gatan speglar lyktors bleka ljus Då går jag ganska ensam och funderar Inunder paraplyt i stadens brus
Så lever jag ett liv i mina drömmar Om allt det som jag gjort och inte gjort I rä nnsten rinner regn i strida strömmar Och minner mej om tid som rinner bort
Jag stannar upp ett tag, försöker glömma Och plötsligt står det klart i en sekund Att det kan vara skönt att gå och drömma Men livet det ä r nu i denna stund
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Nu ska jag aldrig mera se tillbaka (se tillbaka) Den framtid som jag ser ä r ljus och fri (ljus och fri) Och aldrig, aldrig mer ska jag försaka Vad stunden ger av fä rg och fantasi
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder...
De Andere Kant Van De Maan
((Adapted from: The Other Side Of The Sun (Janis Ian) - 1979))
Composer(s): Albert Hammond - Janis Ian - Dingeman Vochteloo
Performer(s): Conny Vandenbos - 1980
Ik neem de eerste trein en hoop dat-ie meteen zal gaan rijden Ik wed dat je er niets van begrijpt, maar ik moest echt gaan Ik kan niet langer leven met die ruzies, op de gekste tijden Ik zou wel willen wonen aan de andere kant van de maan
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van' Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan
Een eind op weg naar nergens begin ik toch weer ergens te dromen Weet je hoe het was toen de zon elke morgen scheen Vreemd, als het voorbij is, dan weet je dat het fout is gelopen Omdat je wilde schuilen in je eigen luchtkasteel
Voor altijd en eeuwig
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van' Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan Voor altijd en eeuwig
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van' Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan
Onbekende kant van de maan Onbekende kant van de maan
Don't You Write Her Off
Composer(s): R. Hippard - Roger McGuinn
Performer(s): McGuinn, Clark & Hillman
Been atop the New York skyline
Sailed across the ocean blue
Been alone on a desert island
And I've been a guru too
Don't you write her off like that
Don't you write her off like that
Don't you write her off like that
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
I met the girls in every city
Every town that I've passed thru
You won't find one half as pretty
Or one with a heart so true
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
If you leave her now, he'll get her
Then I know you'll change your mind
You won't find one better
Can't you see that love is blind
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see ....
De Alguna Manera Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute; Mercedes Sosa
De alguna manera tendré que olvidarte por mucho que quiera no es fácil, ya sabes me faltan las fuerzas ha sido muy tarde y nada más, y nada más apenas nada más
Las noches te acercan y enredas el aire mis labios se secan e intento besarte qué fría es la cera de un beso de nadie y nada más, y nada más apenas nada más
Las horas de piedra parecen cansarse y el tiempo se peina con gesto de amante de alguna manera tendré que olvidarte y nada más, y nada más apenas nada más
Podria ser que perdiese la razon Loco de verdad o es mi obsesion Soy un buen hombre o soy un loco Solo hay un paso entre un ser bueno y uno malo
Creo que debo volver al lugar de mi primer viaje Retomar la senda, adquirir coraje Creo que debo ser fiel al anhelo que me ha inspirado Leal a mi sueño porque fui admirado
Y asi la cumbre volvere a pisar Tendre de nuevo la vision Andar el mundo hasta cualquier confin Y asi llegar al fin de mi mision
Tengo que reconstruir lo que los vientos no han dispersado Lo que mi destino no ha despedazado Creo que debo seguir combatiendo cualquier engaño Cumplire mi obra y no habra mas daño
¡Dios! yo te pido continuar Aunque ya no pueda mas Haz que pueda continuar
Muérdele la cola sácale los dientes como una alimaña viene y se va eran dos muchachas de 1920 lejos de los ruidos, lejos del mar cuánto sale un taxi desde aquí a Constitución como si lo que hubiéramos amado Esto es una guerra, ya me han declarado donde el enemigo puedo ser yo todos los fantasmas, todos los países todas las creencias, todo el dolor vuela en su caballo despidiendo mucho gas como si lo que hubiéramos amado Dónde está mi casa Debo dos materias si te das la vuelta eres estatua de sal Ya que no hay regreso, ya que no hay salida quiero que me digan cómo parar vuelves de tu casa y si no hay Whisky un buen geniol Como si lo que hubiéramos amado Muérdele la cola sácale los dientes como una alimaña viene y se va eran dos muchachas de 1920 lejos de los ruidos, lejos del mar

Angry Eyes Composer(s): Jim Messina - Kenny Loggins First release by: Loggins & Messina - 1972
Time, time and again I see you staring down at me Now, then and again I wonder what it is that you see with those Angry Eyes Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down with those Angry Eyes
You want to believe that I am not the same as you And now I can't conceive, oh Lord, of what it is you're trying to do with those Angry Eyes Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down with those Angry Eyes What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me with those Angry Eyes
You and I must start to realize Blindness binds us in a false disguise Can you see me through those Angry Eyes?
You try to defend that you are not the one to blame But I'm finding it hard, my friend, when I 'm in the deadly aim of those Angry Eyes Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down with those Angry Eyes What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me with those Angry Eyes
Dayton, Ohio 1903 Composer(s): Randy Newman Originally performed by: Randy Newman Covered by various other artists
Sing a song of long ago When things were green and movin' slow And people'd stop to say hello Or they'd say "hi" to you "Would you like to come over for tea With the missus and me?" It's a real nice way To spend the day In Dayton, Ohio On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903
Sing a song of long ago When things could grow And days flowed quietly The air was clean and you could see And folks were nice to you "Would you like to come over for tea With the missus and me?" It's a real nice way To spend the day In Dayton, Ohio On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903
Angry Composer(s): Henry Brunies - Jules Cassard - Dudley Mecum Performer(s): Dudley Mecum's Wolverines and multiple other artists
True love never does run smooth At least that's what I'm told If that is true then our love Surely must be good as gold How we battle ev'ry day And when I want a kiss I have to start explaining And it sounds about like this
Dearie, please don't be angry 'Cause I was only teasing you I wouldn't even let you think of leavin' Don't you know I love you true
Just because I took a look at somebody else That's no reason you should put poor me on the shelf Dearie, please don't be angry 'Cause I was only teasing you
Don't believe a thing you hear, just wait 'till you see Then you'll find no cause to show that you're jealous of me Oh! Angry, please don't be angry 'Cause I was only teasing you
Daytime Friends Composer(s): Ben Peters Performer(s): Kenny Rogers; Ted Hawkins
And he'll tell her - He's working late again But she knows to well there's something goin' on She's been neglected - and she needs a friend So her trembling fingers dial the telephone
And Lord, it hurts her - doin' this again He's the best friend that her husband ever knew When she's lonely - he's more than just a friend He's the one she loans her body to
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers Hoping no one else discovers Where they go - What they do In their secret hideaway
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers They don't want to hurt the others So they love - In the nighttime And shake hands in the light of day
And when it's over - there's no peace of mind Just a longin' for the way things should have been And she wonders - Why some men never find That a woman needs a lover and a friend
Änglamark Composer(s): Evert Taube Performer(s): Sven Bertil Taube; Lisa Ekdahl; Anders Lundin
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna
Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar
Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna
Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar
Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna
Days That Used To Be Composer(s): Neil Young Originally performed by: Neil Young Covered by: Ad Vanderveen
People say don't rock the boat, let things go their own way Ideas that once seemed so right, now have gotten hard to say I wish I could talk to you, you could talk to me 'Cause there very few of us left my friend From the days that used to be
Seem like such a simple thing to follow one's own dream But possessions and concession are not often what they seem They drag you down and load you down in disguise of security But we never had to make those deals In the days that used to be
Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car Does it get you where you wanna go, with a seven year warranty Or just another hundred thousand miles away From days that used to be

Days Of Wine And Roses Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Henry Mancini Performer(s): Andy Williams
The days of wine and roses
laugh and run away like a child at play Through a meadow land toward a closing door A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before
The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories Of the golden smile that introduced me to The days of wine and roses and you
(The lonely night discloses) just a passing breeze filled with memories Of the golden smile that introduced me to The days of wine and roses and you-oo-oo
Badlands Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1978
Lights out tonight trouble in the heartland Got a head-on collision smashin' in my guts, man I'm caught in a cross fire that I don't understand But there's one thing I know for sure girl I don't give a damn For the same old played out scenes I don't give a damn For just the in betweens Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul I want control right now you better listen to me baby talk about a dream Try to make it real you wake up in the night With a fear so real spend your life waiting for a moment that just don't come Well, don't waste your time waiting
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday Let the broken hearts stand As the price you've gotta pay We'll keep pushin' till it's understood and these badlands start treating us good
Workin' in the fields till you get your back burned Workin' 'neath the wheels till you get your facts learned Baby I got my facts learned real good right now You better get it straight darling Poor man wanna be rich rich man wanna be king And a king ain't satisfied till he rules everything I wanna go out tonight I wanna find out what I got
Well I believe in the love that you gave me I believe in the faith that could save me I believe in the hope and I pray that some day It may raise me above these
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday Let the broken hearts stand As the price you've gotta pay We'll keep pushin' till it's understood and these badlands start treating us good
mmmmmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm
For the ones who had a notion a notion deep inside That it ain't no sin to be glad you're alive I wanna find one face that ain't looking through me I wanna find one place I wanna spit in the face of these badlands
I thought that passed this way again I feel the changes in my heart I still have questions that I've asked myself a million times I know the answers can't be that far behind I won't forget you're always there And don't you know I'll always care And though the reasons always change There'll never be days like these again I know that dawn will take away the distant day Tomorrow always finds a way 'Cause we're just passing through on our way to another stage And thoughts that linger will be those of today I won't forget you're always there And don't you know I'll always care And though the reasons always change There'll never be days like these again Thoughts that linger will always be the same There will never be days like these again There'll never be days like these again You know we'll always be the same There'll never be days like these again And though the reasons always change There'll never be days like these again
