Frei Zu Leben First performance by: Chris Kempers & Daniel Kovac - 1990
Frei zu leben, dem Gefühl vertrauen nehmen geben, ist es so schwer? Frei zu leben und nach vorne schauen Schritt für Schritt, Hand in Hand mehr und mehr
Einsam sind wir nicht, aber jeder ist allein reissen wir die unsichtbaren Mauern endlich ein Jeder wartet auf ein Wunder und das Wunder kann geschehen wir müssen einfach nur zusammen über alle Grenzen gehen
Frei zu leben, sich auf Ziele freuen nehmen geben, ist es nicht Zeit? Frei zu leben, keine Fragen scheuen Tag für Tag, Hand in Hand hier und heut
Laß uns nicht nach rückwärts sehn frag mich nicht was wird geschehn nimm mich wie ich bin und laß uns beide ehrlich sein Laß uns keine Pläne schmieden die wie schwere Ketten wiegen sperr nicht deine Wünsche in dir ein
Frei zu leben, dem Gefühl vertrauen nehmen geben, ist es so schwer? Frei zu leben und nach vorne schauen Schritt für Schritt Hand in Hand mehr und mehr
Jede Angst verliern jede Hoffnung ausprobiern wenn ich dich hab, fällt es mir nicht schwer
Frei zu leben und nach vorne schauen Schritt für Schritt Hand in Hand mehr und mehr Frei zu lieben, frei zu leben Hand in Hand frei doch nicht allein lass es heut' Wahrheit sein
Uomo Composer(s): P. Casella; Riccardo Cocciante; Luberti Performer(s): Riccardo Cocciante
Mondo una notte chiara Una stella di luce nel cielo Si avvicina e più grande diventa Dell'oscurità Uomo Pieno di stupore Combattendo tra fede e paura Hai tremato nell'oscurità Quella notte chiara Uomo Il bisogno nascosto d'amore Nel tuo cuore speranza portò Uomo L'alba fu leggera Nel tuo cuore la gioia più pura Coi ricordi più antichi tornò Ritornava ancora Uomo Quella stella che apparve nel buio Quella stella che amore portò Uomo Senza più paura Nuovi doni portassi alla riva E stella scendendo dal cielo Laggiù si posò
Something In Red Composer(s): Angela Kaset Performer(s): Lorrie Morgan and multiple other artists
I'm looking for something in red Something that's shocking to turn someone's head Strapless and sequined and cut down to there Stockings and garters and lace underwear The guaranteed number to knock the men dead I'm looking for something in red
I'm looking for something in green something to out do an ex-high school queen Jealousy comes in the color of jade Do you have some pumps and a purse in this shade And a perfume that whispers "Please come back to me" I'm looking for something in green
I'm looking for something in white Something that shimmers in soft candlelight Everyone calls us the most perfect pair Should I wear a veil or a rose in my hair Well, the train must be long and the waist must be tight I'm looking for something in white
I'm looking for something in blue Something real tiny, the baby's brand new He has his father's nose and his chin We once were hot lovers Now we're more like friends Don't tell me that's just what old married folk do I'm looking for something in blue
I'm looking for something in red Like the one that wore when I first turned his head Strapless and sequined and cut down to there Just a size larger than I wore last year The guaranteed number to knock the man dead
I'm looking for something I've gotta have something I'm looking for something in red
Uomo Di Sabbia
(Egyptian, French, & German Title: Salma Ya Salama)
Composer(s): Jeff Barnel; Pierre Delanoé; Jahine Salah
Performer(s): Dalida
Da sempre padrone, violento e predone Sicuro andavi tu
Un colpo di vento, sul moi sentimento T'ha fatto cadere giù Da quel monumento antico
Uomo di sabbia vai, sei del deserto e non lo sai Uomo di sabbia vai, pero nessuna schiava hai
Andavi e venivi, volevi ed avevi Ma che felicità
Col cuore giocavi, di chi non amavi Con me tu scherzavi ma E cambiato il mondo in te
Uomo di sabbia vai, sei del desrto e non lo sai Uomo di sabbia vai, pero nessuna schiava hai
Se cerchi una donna Col volto di una Madonna Fai molto attenzione che non sia un miraggio quel che vedi Forza coraggio La vita è solo un passaggio Ieri comandavi tu Sul piano del sesso e adesso
Uomo di sabbia vai, sei del desrto e non lo sai Uomo di sabbia vai pero nessuna schiava hai
Da sempre padrone, violento e predone Sicuro andavi tu
Un colpo di vento, sul moi sentimento T'ha fatto andare giù Da quel monumento antico
Uomo di sabbia vai, sei del deserto e non lo sai Sono una donna ormai, percio una schiava non avrai Uomo di sabbia vai, sei del deserto e non lo sai Sono una donna ormai, percio una schiava non avrai

Something In My Heart Composer(s): Wayland Patton Performer(s): Ricky Skaggs; Crowe Brothers; Tommy Webb
Well, I thought I was over you and that my heart was free I felt like those old memories had finally let me be So I picked up the phone to call a girl that I once knew But when she said hi, well girl, you know I wished that it was you
Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again Somethin' 'bout the way you broke it just won't seem to mend, no Somethin' in my mind tells me your memory has no end Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again
Seems like only yesterday you promised you'd be mine And I sure thought I heard you say "until the end of time" Well, I guess I was wrong to think your love for me was true So here I am all brokenhearted, all because of you
Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again Somethin' 'bout the way you broke it just won't seem to mend, no Somethin' in my mind tells me your memory has no end Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again
Somethin' in my heart sure makes it hard to love again

Hallo - Hallo Composer(s): Keld Heick - John Hatting - Torben Lendager First performance by: Lonnie Devantier - 1990
Kigger på mit ur, nu' du ganske sikkert hjemme Så jeg drøner ned ad trappen for at ringe til dig Men ned' i boksen står der én med mønter fremme Han ta'r flere op af lommen, mens han skuler til mig
Så er der fri, jeg ringer op og den er klar Men det er kun din automat, der gi'r mig svar
Jeg si'r: Hallo, hallo Jeg ved godt, du er hjemme Ka' du ikke ta' og ta' din telefon Hallo, hallo Jeg lytter til din stemme Men når båndet slutter, er der aldrig no'en
Rådhusuret slår, og her står jeg nu og fryser Jeg er træt af smarte fyre, der skal imponere Jeg' godt forkølet, pudser næse, går og nyser Og ka' næsten ikke styre temperamentet mere
Jeg griber røret, men bli'r stadig holdt for nar For det' din dumme automat, der gi'r mig svar
Jeg si'r: Hallo, hallo Jeg ved godt, du er hjemme Ka' du ikke ta' og ta' din telefon Hallo, hallo Jeg lytter til din stemme Men når båndet slutter, er der aldrig no'en
Jeg fodrer boksen med den sidste mønt jeg har Det er og bli'r din automat, der gi'r mig svar
Jeg si'r: Hallo, hallo Jeg ved godt, du er hjemme Ka' du ikke ta' og ta' din telefon Hallo, hallo Jeg lytter til din stemme Men når båndet slutter, er der aldrig no'en
Jeg si'r: Hallo, hallo Jeg vidste du var hjemme Det var rart, at du ku' ta' din telefon Hallo, hallo Jeg lytter til din stemme Selv om båndet slutter, er der stadig no'en Det var rart, at du ku' ta' din telefon
Something Good Composer(s): Richard Rodgers First performance by: Julie Andrews & Bill Lee - 1965
Maria: Perhaps I had a wicked childhood Perhaps I had a miserable youth But somewhere in my wicked, miserable past There must have been a moment of truth For here you are, standing there, loving me Whether or not you should So somewhere in my youth or childhood I must have done something good Nothing comes from nothing Nothing ever could So, somewhere in my youth or childhood I must have done something good
Captain: So here you are, standing there, loving me Whether or not, you should
Maria: So somewhere in my youth or childhood, I must have done something good
Both: Nothing comes from nothing, nothing ever could

I heard some of you got your families living in cages tall & cold And some just stay there and dust away past the age of old Is this true? Please let me talk to you

Eitt Lag Enn First performance by: Stjórnin - 1990
Með þér - verð ég eins og vera ber Alveg trylltur, kemst í takt við þig, þú tælir mig Ég fer - eftir því sem augað sér Þegar hugur girnist heimta ég, verð hættuleg
Eitt lag enn, ekta sveiflu og hér Þreytist enginn, þú skalt dansa, það sem eftir er Einn takt til! Tónar leika sér að Því sem heillar mig og hæfir, beint í hjartastað
Hjá mér - engin spurning um það er Þegar mætumst við á miðri leið, ég magna seið Það er - ofsa fjör sem fylgir þér Svo ég einhvern veginn umturnast, fæ æðiskast
Eitt lag enn, ekta sveiflu og hér Þreytist enginn, þú skalt dansa, það sem eftir er Einn takt til! Tónar leika sér að Því sem heillar mig og hæfir, beint í hjartastað
Ég er frjáls í faðmi þér, við förum hvert sem er Látum töfra lífsins tak' af okkur völd
Eitt lag enn, ekta sveiflu og hér Þreytist enginn, þú skalt dansa, það sem eftir er Einn takt til! Taflið snýst um það eitt Að við höldum áfram hraðar, hikum aldrei neitt
Að við höldum áfram, hraðar nú Hikum aldrei, ég og þú, - við neitt
Up In The World Composer(s): Clifford T. Ward Performer(s): Clifford T. Ward; Cliff Richard
You've come up in the world And it's all to your credit You made something of your life Like you always said you would But what ever happened to the girl I used to know and all those halcyon days of love?
You've come up in the world And it's such a shame You made success of a dream But it seems so empty now With your weak excuses and your Condescending ways and Your all-too-frequent nights alone
Something For The Boys Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Evelyn Dall and multiple other artists
Im always doing something Something for the boys Im always doing something For the lads if it adds to their joy So dont tell me its a wrong thing If Im out with em nightly till three cos Im always doing something for the boys Or theyre doing something for me
Back in the days of gifty giving When all Gods daddies had greens I was oh so busy living Beyond several gentlemens means I didnt care much where I fluttered Long as my bank roll was buttered But now my lifes completely cluttered With soldiers, sailors Not to speak of those big marines
cos Im always doing something Something for the boys Im always doing something For the lads if it adds to their joy So dont tell me its a wrong thing If I flop on some corporals knee cos Im always doing something for the boys Or theyre doing something for me
Up On Cripple Creek Composer(s): Robbie Robertson Performer(s): The Band; and various other artists
When I get off of this mountain You know where I want to go Straight down the Mississippi river To the Gulf of Mexico To Lake George, Louisiana Little Bessie, girl that I once knew And she told me just to come on by If there's anything she could do
{Refrain}
Up on Cripple Creek she sends me If I spring a leak she mends me I don't have to speak she defends me A drunkard's dream if I ever did see one Good luck had just stung me To the race track I did go She bet on one horse to win And I bet on another to show Odds were in my favor I had him five to one When that nag came around the track Sure enough he had won
{Refrain}
I took up all of my winnings And I gave my little Bessie half And she tore it up and blew it in my face Just for a laugh Now there's one thing in the whole wide world I sure would like to see That's when that little love of mine Dips her doughnut in my tea
{Refrain}
Now me and my mate were back at the shack We had Spike Jones on the box She said, "I can't take the way he sings But I love to hear him talk" Now that just gave my heart a fall To the bottom of my feet And I swore and I took another pull My Bessie can't be beat
{Refrain}
Now, it's hot in California And up north it's pretty cold And this living off the road Is getting pretty old So I guess I'll call up my big mama Tell her I'll be rolling in Bet you know, deep down, I'm kinda tempted To see my sweet Bessie again
