Ashes To Ashes Composer(s): David Bowie First release by: David Bowie - 1980 Covered by multiple other artists
Do you remember a guy that's been In such an early song I've heard a rumour from Ground Control Oh no, don't say it's true
They got a message from the Action Man "I'm happy, hope you're happy too I've loved all I've needed love Sordid details following"
The shrieking of nothing is killing Just pictures of Jap girls in synthesis and I Ain't got no money and I ain't got no hair But I'm hoping to kick but the planet it's glowing
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky We know Major Tom's a junkie Strung out in heaven's high Hitting an all-time low
Time and again I tell myself I'll stay clean tonight But the little green wheels are following me Oh no, not again I'm stuck with a valuable friend "I'm happy, hope you're happy too" One flash of light but no smoking pistol
I never done good things I never done bad things I never did anything out of the blue, woh-o-oh Want an axe to break the ice Wanna come down right now
Ashes to ashes, funk to funky We know Major Tom's a junkie Strung out in heaven's high Hitting an all-time low
My mother said to get things done You'd better not mess with Major Tom My mother said to get things done You'd better not mess with Major Tom My mother said to get things done You'd better not mess with Major Tom My mother said to get things done You'd better not mess with Major Tom

Laughing while you tease me Oh, do you know and do you care? I said I did, I shouldn't cause the magic will go It happened once before You'll see it, you'll steal it and take it away And then come back for more Don't say you weren't, you were 'cause I saw you myself It's too late for your reason You're lying, you're lying, you've done it this time I'm sick of all the cheating Oh, well do you know and do you care? 'Cause I watch you oo every day I watch you pass me by I'll get you Yes in the end I'll get you Just watch me try Oh you make it hard to be hard but I'm trying my best Cause down inside I'm burning You want it, you get it, now take it and run I'll hide how much it's hurting Oh, well do you know and do you care? Oh, well do you know and do you care?

Performer(s): Frank Sinatra

We used to say our love will stay Until the cows come home And then the cows came home Do you know why? We used to say well love this way Till Hades freezes over And then it just froze over Do you know why?

We used to say our love will stay Forever and a night And now forevers gone Darling, do you know why? Neither do I
Ashes And Glass Composer(s): Bob Weir - Andre Pessis Performer(s): Bob Weir
What if all tomorow brings is ashes and glass And I can't tell you child, "this too shall pass" If all the world were windswept, cold and gray And in the end there's nothing left to say
If all the silicon and best laid plans Became the master, and the fall of man If all the earth were baked to hard red clay Not so far from where we are today
Ah well anyway
Come on darlin', swing and sway Daddy gonna find us a better way And if that better way don't float Daddy gonna find us a tighter boat
And if that tighter boat don't sail Grab a bucket babe, and start to bail And if that bucket spring a leak Little miss, we're up the creek
What if fire came raining on the hills And mountains made of rusting Coupe De Villes And all God's children find themselves alone And all the poets took to throwing stones
Guess we're on our own No way out and no way home
Come on baby, it's time to sing Daddy gonna grab that old brass ring And if that old brass ring don't fit Daddy gonna get to fixin' it
And if that old brass ring stays broke Daddy gonna buy you a billy goat And if that billy goat don't bark Gonna give that goat the old kick start Old kick start
What if all that was left was ashes and glass And I can't tell you child, "this too shall pass" And if those four horsemen can't be turned away And everyone's too paralyzed to pray
Too paralyzed to pray And the jury's out on judgement day And there ain't nothing left to say Nothing left to say
Come on baby we can fly Daddy's got a stack of alibi's Alibi's shot full of holes Come on child, let's rock and roll
And if that roll takes us to France Teach them Froggies how to dance Keep on dancin', sing the tune We'll be dancin' all around the moon
And if that big old moon go bust Well ashes to ashes, baby, dust to dust Baby it's time for one last rave Keep on dancin' on our own graves
On our own graves Keep on dancing On our own graves Keep on dancing Keep on dancing
Do You Know Who I Am? Composer(s): Bobby Russell Performer(s): Elvis Presley
Do you know who I am Have you have any idea who I am Yes it's been quite a while And it's so good to see you again
It's so dark in this place That I can't see your face May believe Oh I see Does he know who I am And what once was between you and me
Do you know how I tried Have you any idea how I tried Not to keep you in sight Do you know darling how much I cried
I remember you said That you had to forget about me, and be free Do you know who I am or have you forgot about me
Do you think there's a chance You and I could start over again Is there a prayer you still pray Or has it just been too long and we're through Well, what about you and him Oh he's only a friend Well I see there's still a chance for me
Well maybe some other time, in some other place With our love in your heart and a smile on your face You will know who I am When that time comes you'll know who I am You will know who I am When that time comes you'll know who I am You will know who I am When that time comes you'll know who I am

Do you know where you're going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you Where are you going to? Do you know?
Do you get What you're hoping for When you look behind you There's no open door What are you hoping for? Do you know?
Once we were standing still in time Chasing the fantasies That filled our minds You knew how I loved you But my spirit was free Laughin' at the questions That you once asked of me
Do you know where you're going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you Where are you going to? Do you know?
Now looking back at all we've planned We let so many dreams Just slip through our hands Why must we wait so long Before we'll see How sad the answers To those questions can be
Do you know where you're going to? Do you like the things that life is showing you Where are you going to? Do you know?
Do you get What you're hoping for When you look behind you There's no open door What are you hoping for? Do you know?

Covered by multiple other artists
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans And miss it each night and day I know I'm not wrong, the feeling's getting stronger The longer I stay away
Miss the moss-covered vines, tall sugar pines Where mockingbirds used to sing I'd love to see that old lazy Mississippi Hurrying into Spring
The moonlight on the bayou A Creole tune that fills the air I dream about magnolias in bloom And I'm wishin I was there
Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans When that's where you left your heart And there's one thing more, I miss the one I care for More than I miss New Orleans

Asesina De Mi Vida Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
No sé cómo te soporto no sé como te tolero debe ser el fin de siglo o que estoy enloqueciendo Sé que amarte es un combate donde siempre caigo preso pero bien valen tus rejas un descenso a los infiernos
Me someto a tu malicia como quien profesa un credo no me quedan más esquemas que las reglas de tu juego Bailo al son de tus caprichos dices negro y digo negro no te llevo la contraria porque no deseo hacerlo
Vas a acabar con mis días y mis noches, asesina asesina de mi vida.
Tu crueldad es una esponja que succiona mi cerebro me torturas lentamente con tu corazón de hielo No tienes la sangra fría que eso es tener sangre al menos lo que corre por tus venas es dulcísimo veneno
Mira que te gusta verme humillado como un perro qué te importa maltratarme si ni siento ni padezco Pero todo se me pasa como si fuera un mal sueño cuando veo que tus ojos me insinúan: ahora quiero

Covered by multiple other artists
Do you know the way to San Jose? I've been away so long I may go wrong and lose my way Do you know the way to San Jose? I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
L.A. is a great big freeway Put a hundred down and buy a car In a week, maybe two, they'll make you a star Weeks turn into years. How quick they pass And all the stars that never were Are parking cars and pumping gas
Do you know the way to San Jose? They've got a lot of space There'll be a place where I can stay I was born and raised in San Jose I'm going back to find some peace of mind in San Jose
Fame and fortune is a magnet It can pull you far away from home With a dream in your heart you're never alone Dreams turn into dust and blow away And there you are without a friend You pack your car and ride away
I've got lots of friends in San Jose Do you know the way to San Jose? Can't wait to get back to San Jose

Composer(s): Barry Goldberg - Gram Parsons
Performer(s): The International Submarine Band
Do you know how it feels to be lonesome When there's just no one left that really cares Did you ever try to smile at some people And all they ever seem to do is stare
And you remember how it feels to be cold again When the happiness of love has gone away And you never want to go out on the street again And you only seem to live from day to day
Do you know how it feels to be lonesome When there's just no one left who really cares Did you ever try to smile at some people Yes, and all they ever seem to do is stare Yes, and all they ever seem to do is stare

Ladies and Gentlemen Ev'ry duke and earl and peer is here Ev'ryone who should be here is here What a smashing, positively dashing Spectacle: the Ascot op'ning day At the gate are all the horses Waiting for the cue to fly away What a gripping, absolutely ripping Moment at the Ascot op'ning day Pulses rushing! Faces flushing! Heartbeats speed up! I have never been so keyed up! And second now They'll begin to run Hark! A bell is ringing They are springing Forward Look! It has begun...! What a frenzied moment that was! Didn't they maintain an exhausting pace? 'Twas a thrilling, absolutely chilling Running of the Ascot op'ning race
Sancta Maria, ik kom tot U Hier bij het kruis bid ik tot U Vraag ik om raad, hoop in m'n hart Want Gij troost menselijke smart
Doe ik soms kwaad als ik bemin Meer dan het geld is zij me waard Zij maakt m'n lot zo wonderbaar O, ik leef alleen voor haar
Vergeef me m'n ontroering Als zij niet bij me is Vergeef me m'n vervoering Als zij in m'n armen ligt Vergeef Sancta Maria Dit brandend liefdesvuur En maak Sancta Maria Dat het voor altijd duurt
Doe ik soms kwaad als ik bemin Meer dan het goud is zij me waard Zij maakt m'n lot zo wonderbaar O, ik leef alleen voor haar
Vergeef me m'n ontroering Als zij niet bij me is Vergeef me m'n vervoering Als zij in m'n armen ligt Vergeef Sancta Maria Dit brandend liefdesvuur En maak Sancta Maria Dat het voor altijd duurt
