Ooit Komt De Dag
Composer(s): Jimmy Frey - Andy Free - Mary Boduin
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis Ooit komt de dag, m'n kind, m'n eigen zoon Dat jij me kent, m'n te lang verloren droom M'n leven is zo leeg, zo leeg het huis
Jij was ons geluk, een gezin met ons drie Maar de liefde ging stuk Waardoor kwam dat, of hoe en door wie?
Zij is weggegaan en nam jou met haar mee En m'n hele bestaan Werd een leven van hoop en verdriet En ik zie je nog De manier hoe je naar me keek Die blik op jou bedroefd gelaat En hoe klein je toen leek
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis Ooit komt de dag, m'n kind, m'n eigen zoon Dat jij me kent, m'n te lang verloren droom M'n leven is zo leeg, zo leeg het huis En ik zie je nog De manier hoe je naar me keek Die blik op jou bedroefd gelaat Je was te klein En je wereld viel uit elkaar
In alle kinderen grote en kleine Zag ik steeds jouw verhaal Oneindig triest In de straten op de pleinen Zag ik jou verdwijnen En ik keek je dan na.
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis Ooit komt de dag, m'n kind, m'n eigen zoon Dat jij me kent, m'n te lang verloren droom M'n leven is zo leeg, zo leeg het huis
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis Ooit komt de dag, m'n kind, m'n eigen zoon Dat jij me kent, m'n te lang verloren droom M'n leven is zo leeg, zo leeg het huis
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis Ooit komt de dag, m'n kind, m'n eigen zoon Dat jij me kent, m'n te lang verloren droom M'n leven is zo leeg, zo leeg het huis
Ooit komt de dag dat jij het weet Wie ik wel was en hoe je werkelijk heet Dan is het feest en kom je weer naar huis
Michael Collins Composer(s): Derek Warfield Performer(s): Wolfe Tones
Come listen all me true men to my simple rhyme For it tells of a young man cut off in his prime A soldier and a statesman who laid down the law, and To die by the roaside in lone Beal na Bla When barely sixteen to England crossed o'er For to work as a boy in a government store But the Volunteers call he could not disobey So he came back to Dublin to join in the fray
At Easter nineteen sixteen when Pearse called them out The men from the Dublin battalion roved out And in the post office they nobley did show How a handful of heros could outfight the foe
To Stafford and jails transported they were As prisonners of England they soon made a stir Released before Christmas and home once again He banded old comrades together to train Dail Eireann assembled our rights to proclaim Suppressed by the English you'd think it's a shame How Ireland's best and bravest were harried and torn From the Arms of their loved ones and children new born
For years Mick eluded their soldiers and spies For he was the master of clever disguise With the Custom House blazing she found t'was no use And soon Mother England had asked for a truce Oh when will the young men a sad lesson spurn That brother and brother they never should turn Alas that a split in our ranks 'ere we saw Mick Collins stretched lifeless in lone Beal na Bla
Oh long will old Ireland be seeking in vain Ere we find a new leader to match the man slain A true son of Grainne his name long will shine O gallant Mick Collins cut off in his prime

Well, the first time I lose a drink of whiskey And the second time I lose a drink of gin, Third time I lose a drink of anything Cause I think I'm gonna win.

Ooh La La Composer(s): Ronnie Lane; Ron Wood Performer(s): Rod Stewart; and various other artists
Poor old Grandad I laughed at all his words I thought he was a bitter man He spoke of women's ways They'll trap you then they use you before you even know For love is blind and you're far too kind Don't ever let it show
I wish that I knew what I know now When I was younger I wish that I knew what I know now When I was stronger
The can-can such a pretty show Will steal your heart away But backstage back on earth again The dressing rooms are grey They come on strong and it ain't too long For they make you feel a man But love is blind and you soon will find You're just a boy again (joana)
When you want her lips, you get her cheek Makes you wonder where you are If you want some more then she's fast asleep Leaves you twinkling with the stars
Poor young grandson there's nothing I can say You'll have to learn, just like me And that's the hardest way, ooh la la
I wish that I knew what I know now When I was younger I wish that I knew what I know now When I was stronger
Mi Vida Es Cantar Composer(s): Victor Daniel Performer(s): Celia Cruz
Cantar para mi, es cómo ser dueña del universo poder expresar con mi voz lo que llevo por dentro Hacerles a ustedes sentir sensaciones grandiosas y en siete notas conjugar cantando muchas cosas Y cuando la magia de algún son invade poco a poco el corazón me envuelvo con su ritmo sabroson y el sentimiento Siento los cueros repicar y mi cuerpo no cesa de bailar dejándome llevar por el compás que bien me siento
Y es que el canto, yo lo llevo por dentro Cantando yo viajo al mundo brindándole sentimiento Y es que el canto, yo lo llevo por dentro Tres amores tengo dentro de mi alegre corazón Y es que el canto, yo lo llevo por dentro Cuba bella, el son la rumba y mi cabecita de algodón Y es que el canto, yo lo llevo por dentro Lo que soy, es la gracia de Dios Su amor me dio este talento que te brindo con mi voz, con mi voz

When they met, the way they smiled I saw that I was through Oh, you crazy moon, what did you do? And when they kissed, they tried to say that it was just in fun Oh, you crazy moon, look what you've done
Once you promised me, you know, that this could never end You should be ashamed to show your funny face, my friend There they are -- they fell in love I guess you think you're smart Oh, you crazy moon, you broke my heart
It was just a night like this when it happened I was such an unsuspecting soul And I couldn't quite believe that it happened Til it got beyond control
Well, there they are, they fell in love; I guess you think you're smart Oh, you crazy moon, oh, you crazy moon Oh, you crazy moon, you broke my heart

Mi Vedevo Già English & French Titles: It Will Be My Day; Je M'voyais Déjà Composer(s): Calabrese; Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
A diciott'anni la mia provincia grigia Abbandonai deciso ad arrivar Portavo via più sogni che valigie Deciso a conquistar la gran città Presi così dal sarto più di nome L'abito blu, ch'era una novità E tra foto, canzoni ed orchestrazioni I miei risparmi son finiti là Mi vedevo già sopra ai manifesti Col mio nome grande Più grande di chi non importa chi Mi vedevo già, grande fra i modesti E firmavo foto, stringevo mani Di qua e di là Il più grande dei grandi fantasisti Ed ogni successo la gente in piedi Acclamava me Mi vedevo già elencare in liste Chi poteva a turno per una sera Abbracciarsi a me Certo sto invecchiandomi Sempre in questi panni Ma la voce è là, frutto d'esperienza E di capacità Sono inacidito un po' Col passar degli anni Però del mestiere ho tante idee Che non tradirò Non domando che di calcar la scena Ogni volta il cuore Davanti aL pubblico batterà Non ho avuto mai un po' di fortuna Non han mai capito Che ho del talento Ma io ne ho L'abito blu Trent'anni che lo porto Le mie canzoni far ridere solo me Ogni scrittura mi butto a corpo morto E sopravvivo chi lo sa com'è Conosco solo trionfi raccontati Viaggi di notte e dame demodè Miserabili paghe, valigie e tourné Con pasti magri e scalcinati hotel Mi vedevo già in fotografia In inverno ai monti, l'estate al mare Con qualche star Raccontare già la mia biografia Per i debuttanti con l'aria magica Di chi sà Ogni mia prémiére era una marea Mille telegrammi dal temutissimo Tout Paris, superato il crac Di quella platea, ritornavo in scena Fra i proiettori a cantare il bis Ho tentato tutto ormai Per venire avanti Ho provato il serio, ho provato il comico E l'éclaqué, se ho sbagliato tutto E resto in mezzo ai tanti Non è colpa mia, è colpa di Chi non mi ha capito mai L'occasione a me l'hen negata in tanti Altri son riusciti, avranno i soldi Ma voce no. Ero troppo bravo Ho vent'anni avanti, ma verrà Quel giorno che il mio talento Dimostrerò
