1964 Composer(s): Piazzola; Borges Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Ya no sere felíz tal vez no importa hay tantas otras cosas en el mundo un instante cualquiera es mas profundo y diverso que el mar
La vida es corta y aunque las horas son tan largas una oscura maravilla nos asecha la muerte, ese otro mar esa otra flecha que nos libra del sol y de la luna y del amor
La dicha que me diste y me quitaste deben ser borradas lo que era todo tiene que ser nada solo me queda el goce de estar triste Esa vana costumbre que me inclina al sur a cierta puerta, a cierta esquina
Man From Galilee Composer(s): Joe Isaacs Performer(s): Ralph Stanley
Well do you know that man that rode on the mule Do you know that man that rode on the mule Do you know that man that rode on the mule He's the same man from down in Galilee He's the same man from down in Galilee
Well do you know that man that walked on the water Do you you know that man that healed the leper man Do you know that man that rode on the mule He's the same man from down in Galilee He's the same man from down in Galilee
I'm glad I know that man that walked on the water I'm glad I know that man that healed the leper man I'm glad I know that man that rode on the mule He's the same man from down in Galilee He's the same man from down in Galilee
Well now he's a different man that walked on the water He's a different man that healed the leper man He's a different man that rode on the mule He's the same man from down in Galilee He's the same man from down in Galilee
Well do you know that man that rode on the mule Do you know that man that rode on the mule Do you know that man that rode on the mule He's the same man from down in Galilee He's the same man from down in Galilee

Man And Woman Composer(s): Jay Livingstone; Ray Evans Performer(s): Rosemary Clooney & Bing Crosby
Both: A man or a woman, we all will agree To make life worth living is necessary
Rosemary: A man is a creature we cant overlook As easy to read as a page in a book Hell boast and hell brag of the women he spurned But just like a doorknob his head can be turned
A man oh a man any woman will say Whatever he is, we like him that way
Bing: A woman is something both evil and good But too complicated to be understood An angel when loving, a devil when mad A woman can make you both happy and sad
A woman, a woman, oh what can she be Whatever she is, shes necessary
Rosemary: Complains that hes henpecked and treated so bad But if hes ignored, then hell holler like mad He knows all the methods of landing a fish But still cant be trusted at drying a dish
Uh-huh, (uh-huh), uh-huh, (uh-huh), mm-mm, (mm-mm), mm-mm, (mm-mm) A man, oh a man, any woman will say Whatever he is, we like him that way
Bing: Afraid of a cricket, shell scream at a mouse But shell tackle a husband as big as a house Shell take him for better, shell take him for worse Shell bust his head open and then be his nurse

Man Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin Performer(s): Elton John
Man stands in all his glory Sitting at the crossroads of the same old story Man got his make-up, wears it like a mask Hides inside a child, lives inside a glass Man breathes his own deceit Man worships his own defeat
Oh I'm a man, I know what it feels like I'm a man, working on the living part of life You see through me, I understand But don't lose hope if you can Have a little faith in man
Shakespeare's men got all the lines Modern man lives back in time Man got bravado in his big steel hands Runs with the wolf, sleeps with the lamb Man falls, cuts and bleeds Man stumbles on his own belief
He's the hoax behind the thrill The poison arrow, the bitter pill Hard to swallow, hard to kill, hard to understand He's the light behind the hill The broken promise, the iron will Hard to kill, hard to understand
1980 Composer(s): Pierre Rapsat Performer(s): Pierre Rapsat
Premiers bruits Des poubelles Pour les villes Au réveil Tu sors de ta nuit!
Premiers mots Au café Au métro... "Année 80" T'as vraiment pas la gueule Des imaginations Des vieux livres science-fiction!
Tu n'as pas plein de spoutnick, d'androïdes On fabrique pas des soucoupes chez Plymouth On dîne pas aux pilules On vit pas dans des bulles!
"1980" Tu es cet écran Où sont projetés Nos espoirs-succès Amours en question Et nouvelles chansons!
Tous les plans d'une paix Qui dorment empagés Départs de folie Pour Gallipolli! De nouveaux romans De nouveaux présidents
En flash-backs Tu nous rassures Pour le futur Dans le lin Le strass et Chopin!
Les journaux imprimeront Nos jours sous ton nom! Malgré les machines Les enfants feront Encore sur leurs doigts Toutes leurs additions!
Les autruches ne gouvernent pas notre terre On fait pas nos lunes de miel en stellaire! Pas de Club sur Pluton On n'est pas des mutants!
"1980" Malgré l'synthétique On rêvera encore En films, en musiques On fera l'amour Mais non-télépathique!
Décomprime Nos envies, nos déprimes "1980" T'es notre starting-block Pour la course dans l'époque! "1980" T'as notre starting-block Pour la course dans l'époque! "1980"

Hurray I awake from yesterday Alive but the war is here to stay So my love catherina and me Decide to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea Not to die but to be reborn Away from the lands so battred and torn Forever forever
Oh say can you see it's really such a mess Every inch of earth is a fighting nest Giant pencil and lipstick-tube shaped things Continue to rain and cause screamin' pain And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red As our feet find the sand And the sea is straight ahad Straight up ahead
Well it's too bad that our friends can't be with us today Well it's too bad The machine that we built Would never save us that's what they say That's why they ain't comin' with us today And they also said it's impossible For a man to live and breathe undrerwater Forever was a main complaint Yeah and they also threw this in my face they said Anyway you know good and well It would be beyond the will of god And the grace of the king Grace of the king Yeah
Ooo
So my darling and I make love in the sand To salute the last moment ever on dry land Our machine it has done it's work played it's part well Without a scratch on our body when we bid it farewell Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile Before our heads go under we take our last look at the killing noise Of the out of style The out of style out of style oh yeah Oooo
So down and down and down and down we go Hurry my darlin' we mustn't be late For the show Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so my dear Right this way smiles a mermaid I can hear atlantis full of cheer Atlantis full of cheer I can hear atlantis full of cheer Oh yeah

A small Café Mam'selle, our rendezvous, Mam'selle The violins were warm and sweet, and so were you Mam'selle And as the night danced by, a kiss became a sigh Your lovely eyes seemed to sparkle just like wine does No heart ever yearned the way that mine does for you And yet I know too well someday you'll say goodbye Then violins will cry, and so will I Mam'selle

È bruciato anche l'ultimo fiore grigio fumo è il colore del sole sono solo in un mondo che tace finalmente è scoppiata la pace aspettavo che venisse il momento ora parlo solamente col vento finalmente questo mondo è più bello il fratello più non odia il fratello Cosa farò non lo so cosa dirò niente, niente, niente Son salito su di un tram che non parte sto seduto come sempre in disparte non mi piace tutto quello che dico ho paura io mi sento nemico Cosa farò non lo so cosa dirò niente, niente, niente
Mamy Blue Composer(s): Hubert Giraud Originally performed by: Nicoletta Covered by various other artists
Oh Mamy, oh mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Ou es tu, ou es tu mamy blue Oh mamy blue Je suis partie un soir d'été
Sans dire un mot sans t'embrasser Sans un regard sur le passé Dès que j'ai franchi la frontière Le vent soufflait plus fort qu'hier Quand j'étais près de toi ma mère
Oh Mamy, oh mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Ou es tu, ou es tu mamy blue Oh mamy blue
Et aujourd'hui je reviens Ou j'ai refait tout le chemin Qui m'avait entraîne si loin Tu n'es plus la pour me sourire Me réchauffer me recueillir Et je n'ai plus qu'a repartir
Oh Mamy, oh mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Oh Mamy blue Ou es tu, ou es tu mamy blue Oh mamy blue La maison a ferme ses yeux Le chat et les chiens sont très vieux Et ils viennent me dire adieu Je ne reviendrai plus jamais Dans ce village que j'aimais Ou tu reposes désormais

19th Nervous Breakdown Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards Performer(s): The Rolling Stones
You're the kind of person you meet at certain Dismal, dull affairs Center of the crowd, talkin' much too loud Runnin' up and down the stairs
Well it seems to me that you have seen Too much in too few years And though you try you just can't hide Your eyes are edged with tears
{Refrain} You better stop and look around Here it comes, here it comes Here it comes, here it comes Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
{Repeatable verses} When you were a child you were treated kind But never brought up right And you were always spoiled with a thousand toys But still you cried all night Your mother who neglected you Owes a million dollars tax And your father's still perfecting ways Of making sealing wax
{Refrain}
{Bridge} Oh, who's to blame That girl's just insane Well nothin' I do don't seem to work It only seems to make matters worse Oh, please
Well, you were still in school when you had that fool Who really messed your mind And after that you turned your back On treating people kind
On our first trip I tried so hard To rearrange your mind But after a while I realized You were disarranging mine
{Refrain, Bridge}
{Repeatable verses}
You will stop and look around Here it comes Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown Here comes your 19th nervous breakdown
M'amie Composer(s): Robert Chabrier; Jo Moutet Performer(s): Georges Guétary
Quand tu viens vers moi abandonnée m'amie Je t'ouvre les bras pour t'embrasser m'amie Et nous restons là sans nous parler heureux Amoureux nous dévorant des yeux Tout pourrait sombrer autour de nous m'amie L'univers entier ne compterait plus m'amie Puisque notre amour est plus grand chaque jour J'ai mon paradis quand j'ai tes yeux m'amie
M'amie... m'amie...
Regarde les fleurs elles sont jolies m'amie Elles ont un cur et toi aussi m'amie Mais quand le jour meurt elles vont se cacher Pour pleurer des larmes de rosée Comme elles nous envient car nous avons m'amie Le jour et la nuit pour nous aimer m'amie Puisqu'on est si bien, jusqu'au petit matin Reste dans mes bras on s'aimera On s'aimera m'amie
