The Girl's Alright With Me
Composer(s): Eddie Holland - Eddie Kendricks - Norman Whitfield
Performer(s): The Temptations; Derrick Harriott; The Spinners



This little girl of mine
I wanna say she's so fine
And each and every day
I make sure she has her way

Now, we don't feel tied down
Although our hearts are bound
I don't have to chase her all over town
My baby she's always around

The girl's alright with me
You know the girl's alright
Listen, the girl's alright with me
You know the girl's alright

Now she's so good to me
I guess that's why I feel fancy free
Just to see the glow in her eyes
Makes me once again realize

I love her with all my heart
And I know we'll never, never part
I never heard her about or caught her playing
I guess that's why you always hear me saying...

The girl's alright with me
You know the girl's alright, hmm...
The girl's alright with me
You know the girl's alright

When I visit at her home
Other fellas never, never ring her phone
She lets them know just where they stand
She tells them all that I'm her man

And when we're out on a date
Other fellas wait till I walk away
They try to beat my time
She tells them in a nice way, she's mine, all mine

The girl's alright with me
You know the girl's alright
And I trust her with my heart now (The Girl's alright with me)
Everyday now (You know the girl's alright)
You know, you know that the (girl's alright with me)
In everyway now (You know the girl's alright)

Celui Que J'aime
Composer(s): France Gall
Performer(s): France Gall



Je ne sais que penser
Des garçons
Ils savent dire des choses
Très jolies

Et quand je leur chante
Ma chanson
Ils me regardent
Étonnés, surpris

Ils me prennent la main
D'une main qui tremble
Et leurs yeux amoureux
Dans les miens se font tendres

Ils sont très
Curieux parfois
Quand je penche vers eux
Doucement mon visage

Ils se noient aussitôt
Ils perdent leur langage
Ils sont très
Timides parfois

Mais celui que j'aime
N'est pas comme ça
Il ne rit pas, ne parle pas
Celui que j'aime n'est pas comme ça

Ils jouent comme des fous
Lorsque je veux rire
Et tombent à mes genoux
Lorsque je soupire

Ils sont très
Gentils pour moi
Mais celui que j'aime
N'est pas comme ça
Il ne rit pas, ne parle pas
Celui que j'aime
N'est pas comme ça

Car celui que j'aime
Ne m'aime pas
Car celui que j'aime
Ne m'aime pas
Car celui que j'aime
Ne m'aime pas

Forever And Ever
Composer(s): R. Constandinos; S. Vlavianos
Performer(s): Demis Roussos



Ever and ever, forever and ever 
You'll be the one 
That shines on me 
Like the morning sun 

Ever and ever, forever and ever 
You'll be my spring 
My rainbows end 
And the song I sing 

Take me far beyond imagination 
You're my dream come true 
My consolation 

Ever and ever, forever and ever 
You'll be my dream 
My symphony 
My whole love a stream 

Ever and ever, forever and ever 
My destiny 
Will follow you eternally

The Girlfriend Of The Whirling Dervish
Composer(s): Harry Warren - Al Dubin - Johnny Mercer
Performer(s): John Payne, Jerry Colonna, Johnnie Davis, Ray Mayer & Joe Venuti
and multiple other artists



One fine day, I chanced to stray
On a little side street in old Bombay
And met a sentimental oriental
She saw me and I saw she
Had a manner too bold and much too free
Her eyes were positively detrimental
When I asked about this gay coquette
I discovered much to my regret...

She's the girl friend of the whirling dervish
She's the sweetest one he's found
But ev'ry night, in the mellow moonlight
When he's out dervishing with all his might
She gives him the run-around

All the boy friends of the whirling dervish
Are his best friends to his face
But there's no doubt, when he isn't about
They all come hurrying to take her out
She leads him a dizzy pace

He dreams of a Hindu honeymoon
He doesn't dream that ev'ry night when he goes out
To make an honest rupee
She steps out to make a lotta whoopee

Oh, the love song of the whirling dervish
Has a sweet and tender sound
But will he burn if he ever should learn
That while he's doing her a real good turn
She gives him the runaround

She's got a nervish, throwin' him a curvish
Which, of course, he doesn't deservish
Poor old whirling dervish!

Celos De Mi Guitarra
Performer(s): José Feliciano



Yo se que tienes celos de mi guitarra
yo se que lloran tus ojos, cuando me ves abrazarla si
yo se que tienes niña herida el alma

Yo se que por las noches, cuando te marchas
cruzas llorando mi patio, como una luz que se apaga si
yo se que tienes niña herida el alma

Yo se muy bien que te has sentido feliz
sentada junto a mi hoguera, dejando tu primavera pasar
y se también lo mucho que me has querido
y alguna vez he sentido dolor

Yo se que tienes celos de mi guitarra
yo se que tiemblan tus manos, cuando me ves abrazarla si
yo se que tienes niña herida el alma

No puede ser, mi adolescencia pasó
dormida está como un niño
entre unos libros que nunca aprendí
recuérdame, y vive tus quince años
yo, yo te prometo soñarlos....adiós
eyyy, eyyy, eyyy

Forever And After
Performer(s): Paul Simon (aka Jerry Landis)



How long am I going to miss you
How many cigarettes will I have to burn
When can I make my lonely heart realize
That you will never return

How long will I hear your warm laughter
I'm afraid forever and after
How many times do I hurry home to you
To find you gone, to find you gone

This time I held you near me
I hear you say you love me 
More than the day before
You'd smile when you would see me
Please take your kisses to me
And go on wanting more

Though things sometimes went wrong, 
It never, never lasted for long
It wasn't worth the care
For then we had each other's love
We had so much, so much to share
So much to share

The Girl That I Marry
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance/First recording/First release by: Ray Middleton/Frank Sinatra/Frank Sinatra - 1946
Covered by multiple other artists



The girl that I marry will have to be
As soft and as pink as a nursery
The girl I call my own
Will wear satins and laces and smell of cologne

Her nails will be polished and, in her hair
She'll wear a gardenia and I'll be there
`stead of flittin', I'll be sittin'
Next to her and she'll purr like a kitten

A doll I can carry, the girl that I marry must be

Her nails will be polished and, in her hair
She'll wear a gardenia and I'll be there
`stead of flittin', I'll be sittin'
Next to her and she'll purr like a kitten

A doll I can carry, the girl that I marry must be

Ben Ik Te Min
Composer(s): H. Van Loenhout
Originally performed by: Armand



Wil je blijven, oke
Het heeft toch geen enkele zin
Als je me maar niet ziet als de jongen met de rozen
Want dan stort die hele droomwereld in
Jij was, zoals we dat noemden 'het materialistische type'
Maar daar heb je nu nog weinig meer van
Jij bent nu net zo idealistisch als ik
Maar hoe wil je 't in godsnaam anders dan
Ben ik te min
Ben ik te min omdat je ouders meer poen hebben dan de mijne
Ben ik te min
Ben ik te min omdat je pa in een grotere kar rijdt dan de mijne
En toch wil je blijven maar je pa die wil het niet
Ik denk dat je beter kunt gaan
En je moeder die doe je ook al veel verdriet
En als je thuiskomt zal ze zeggen 'wat doe je me aan'
Jouw moeder die ik moest aanhoren met haar achterlijk gezeik
Over de studie van je broer
En je pa die zo'n succesvol zakenman was
Met andere woorden 'wat ben je een boer'
Ben ik dan te min
Ben ik te min omdat je ouders meer poen hebben dan de mijne
Ben ik te min
Ben ik te min omdat je pa in een grotere kar rijdt dan de mijne
Maar kijk uit
Je bent het niet gewend om te vreten van de straat
Als je lichamelijk maar niet zo erg belangrijk vind
Want dat is het in feite niet waar het om gaat
En als je 't aankunt goed, kom dan gerust weer
En anders dan sodemieter je maar op
Want het is echt niet dat ik niets om je geeft
Maar zo duw je je hoofd in een strop
Ben ik daarom dan te min
Ben ik te min omdat je ouders meer poen hebben dan de mijne
Ben ik te min
Ben ik te min omdat je pa in een grotere kar rijdt dan de mijne
Ben ik daarom dan te min
Ben ik te min omdat je ouders meer poen hebben dan de mijne
Ben ik daarom dan te min
Ben ik te min omdat je pa in een grotere kar rijdt dan de mijne

Forever Again
Composer(s): Dave Kirby; Warren Robb
Performer(s): Gene Watson



I wish I could step out of my mind
Then I could be someone that's never known me
But I can't change the way I am, much less the way you feel
Or you'd be loving me forever still

I can't stop the Winter from turning into Spring
Or Summer giving way to Autumn winds
But if I could take the World and make it face the other way
Then you'd love me forever again

If I had a way of changing time
I'd stay busy turning back the pages
If I could make a miracle, I'd make one just for you
And you'd be loving me forever too

I can't stop the Winter from turning into Spring
Or Summer giving way to Autumn winds
But if I could take the World and make it face the other way
Then you'd love me forever again

You'd love me forever again

Een Witte Eend (Op Het Midden Van De Weg)
((Adapted from: Dead Skunk (Loudon Wainwright III) - 1972))
Composer(s): Loudon Wainwright III - Peter Koelewijn
Performer(s): Ciska Peters & Ronnie Tober - 1974



Ik had een donkerblauwe eend
Bijna afbetaald, de rest geleend
Trots als een aap haalde ik jou op
Voor een feest, een eindje verderop
Vader zei: "Thuis, om elf uur"
Dus, we gingen vroeger weg voor een avontuur
Ik dacht: Ik bloos, als jij me zoent
Maar het ging mooi mis, voor je dat kon doen

Want, er liep een
Witte eend op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
En onze blauwe eend hing in de bomen

Veertien dagen op vakantie in de eend
Recht naar het zuiden, had ik zo gemeend
We zouden wel zien hoe de reis zou gaan
Natuurlijk, veilig op de autobaan
Wij reden dag en nacht en alles ging oke
Ik droomde al van 't strand en de zee
En toen je me zei: " 'k Denk dat we d'r zijn"
Slipte de wagen en dat was 't eind

Want, er liep een
Witte eend op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
En onze blauwe eend hing in de bomen

Met jou in 't wit en een sluier om
Stond ik bij je, als de bruidegom
Ik dacht steeds: Ging de dag maar voorbij
Want dan ben jij alleen maar van mij
Je had de bruidssuite voor ons gehuurd
Voor na 't feest, in de buurt
Heel verliefd zijn wij daar heen gegaan
Maar net voor de deur is 't mis gegaan

Want, er liep een
Witte eend op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
En onze blauwe eend hing in de bomen
Witte eend op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
En onze blauwe eend hing in de bomen
Witte eend op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
Een witte eend, op 't midden van de weg
En onze blauwe eend hing in de bomen

Celos
Composer(s): A. Testa - P. Soffici - Villarojas
Performer(s): Raphael



Noche y día
Tú me atormentas
Siempre vida mía
Con estos celos
Nubes de agonía
De mi felicidad
Negros celos
Que son locura
De tu fantasía
Porque con nadie
Yo te engañaría
Y digo la verdad
No, no, no debes
Inventarte sin razón
Los besos que no he dado
Ni las cosas que no son
Te quiero todavía
Vida mía, sólo a ti
Igual que el primer día que te vi
No, no, no debes
Por mi culpa padecer
Dudando a cada instante
Que te quiero como ayer
Tus celos son manías
Que oscurecen el color
Del cielo de alegría de mi amor

Forever

Hold me, kiss me
Whisper sweetly
That you love me

Whisper sweetly
That you love me
Forever

The Girl On The Police Gazette
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Dick Powell
and multiple other artists



Some fellows see the girl that they love in a dream
Some fellows see their love in a rippling stream
I saw the girl that I can't forget
On the cover of a police gazette
If I could find her, life would be peaches and cream

Oh, my search will never cease
For the girl on the police gazette
For the pretty young brunette
On the pink police gazette

And above my mantlepiece
There's a page of the police gazette
With the pretty young brunette
On the pink police gazette

I love to stop
At my fav'rite barber shop
Just to take another look at
The girl I haven't met... Yet

And my longing will increase
For the girl on the police gazette
For the pretty young brunette
On the pink police gazette

Celluloid Heroes
Composer(s): Ray Davies
First release by: The Kinks - 1972
Covered by multiple other artists



Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in movies, it doesn't matter who you are
There are stars in every city
In every house and on every street
And if you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Their names are written in concrete!

Don't step on Greta Garbo as you walk down the Boulevard
She looks so weak and fragile that's why she tried to be so hard
But they turned her into a princess
And they sat her on a throne
But she turned her back on stardom
Because she wanted to be alone

You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain
Rudolph Valentino, looks very much alive
And he looks up ladies dresses as they sadly pass him by
Avoid stepping on Bela Lugosi
'Cos he's liable to turn and bite
But stand close by Bette Davis
Because hers was such a lonely life
If you covered him with garbage
George Sanders would still have style
And if you stamped on Mickey Rooney
He would still turn round and smile
But please don't tread on dearest Marilyn
'Cos she's not very tough
She should have been made of iron or steel
But she was only made of flesh and blood

You can see all the stars as you walk down Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain

Everybody's a dreamer and everybody's a star
And everybody's in show biz, it doesn't matter who you are

And those who are successful
Be always on your guard
Success walks hand in hand with failure
Along Hollywood Boulevard

I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die

You can see all the stars as you walk along Hollywood Boulevard
Some that you recognise, some that you've hardly even heard of
People who worked and suffered and struggled for fame
Some who succeeded and some who suffered in vain

Oh celluloid heroes never feel any pain
Oh celluloid heroes never really die

I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
A fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
And celluloid heroes never really die

Forever

Performer(s): The Beach Boys; Dean Wareham



If every word I said
Could make you laugh
I'd talk forever (together my love)
I ask the sky just what we had
Mmm It shone forever (together my love my my my my my my my my my my my my my)
If the song I sing to you
Could fill your heart with joy
I'd sing forever (together my love my my my my)
Forever
Forever
I've been so happy loving you

Do do do do do do do do do together my love

Let the love I have for you
Live in your heart
And beat forever (together my love)
Forever
Forever
I've been so happy loving you

Baby just let me sing it my baby
I wanna be singin' my baby
Baby baby baby my baby
I wanna be singin'
I wanna be singin' my baby
Oh oh oh oh
My my my my my my

So I'm goin' away
Mmm but not forever
Na na na na
I gotta love you anyway

Forever

The Girl Of My Best Friend
Composer(s): Sam Bobrick - Ruby
First release by: Elvis Presley - 1960
Covered by multiple other artists



The way she walks
The way she talks
How long can I pretend
Oh I can't help I'm in love 
With the girl of my best friend

Her lovely hair
Her skin so fair
I could go on and never end
Oh, I can't help I'm in love
With the girl of my best friend

I want to tell her 
How I love her so
And hold her in my arms, but then
What if she got real mad and told him so
I could never face either one again

The way they kiss
Their happiness
Will my ache-in' ever end
Or will I always be in love
With the girl of my best friend?

Never end,
Will it ever end?
Please let it end

Cello Song
Composer(s): Nick Drake
First release by: Nick Drake - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists



Strange face, with your eyes
So pale and sincere
Underneath you know well
You have nothing to fear
For the dreams that came to you when so young
Told of a life
Where spring is sprung

You would seem so frail
In the cold of the night
When the armies of emotion
Go out to fight
But while the earth sinks to its grave
You sail to the sky
On the crest of a wave

So forget this cruel world
Where I belong
I'll just sit and wait
And sing my song
And if one day you should see me in the crowd
Lend a hand and lift me
To your place in the cloud

Forever
Composer(s): Robert Lamm; Bill Gable
Performer(s): Chicago



Every day it seems we hear the same old story
Every day there's lovers giving up on love
People say it's just a fact of modern living
All around us, people fall in love and marry
Then we hear they're breaking up, and wonder why?
Did they mean it when they said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel

Chorus:
Forever
Is a long, long time
Longer than we ever realize
Forever
Is a long, long time
I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
Forever

Every day I spend with you, I call it lucky
Every night we touch and speak the words of love
Did I mean it when I said it was forever?
All I know is what I feel

Chorus

I'm gonna love you the rest of my life
Forever

The Girl Is Mine
Composer(s): Michael Jackson
First release by: Michael Jackson & Paul McCartney - 1982



(Michael)
Every night she walks right in my dreams
Since I met her from the start
I'm so proud I am the only one
Who is special in her heart

The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
I know she's mine
Because the doggone girl is mine

(Paul)
I don't understand the way you think
Saying that she's yours not mine
Sending roses and your sill dreams
Really just a waste of time

Because she's mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

I love you more than he
(Take you anywhere)

(Michael)
But I love you endlessly
(Loving we will share)

(Michael & Paul)
So come and go with me
Two on the town

(Michael)
But we both cannot have her
So it's one or the other
And one day you'll discover
That she's my girl forever and ever

(Paul)
Don't build your hopes to be let down
'Cause I really feel it's time

(Michael)
I know she'll tell you I'm the one for her
'Cause she said I blow her mind

The girl is mine
The doggone girl is mine
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine

(Michael & Paul)
She's mine, she's mine
No, no, no, she's mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine

(Paul)
The girl is mine, (yep) she's mine
The girl is mine, (yes) she's mine

(Michael)
Don't waste your time
Because the doggone girl is mine
The girl is mine, the girl is mine

(Paul)
Michael, we're not going to fight about this, okay

(Michael)
Paul, I think I told you, I'm a lover not a fighter

(Paul)
I've heard it all before, Michael, she told me that I'm her forever lover
You know, don't you remember

(Michael)
Well, after loving me, she said she couldn't love another

(Paul)
Is that what she said

(Michael)
Yes, she said it, you keep dreaming

(Paul sings)
I don't believe it

(Michael & Paul)
The girl is mine (mine, mine, mine)...

(Repeat)

Celle Qui T'a Laissé Tomber
Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell



C'était un de ces étés chauds
Humides, collants à la peau
L'orage ne faisait que gronder
Les flics rôdaient dans l' quartier
Les gens marchaient à pas lents
Comm' pour retenir le temps
Des gosses dans le caniveau
Jouaient au pistolet à eau
C'est là que j' l'ai vue passer
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

Elle sortait d' la bouche du métro
J'ai vu briller ton couteau
Tu as cherché à te venger
La marquer, lui faire payer
J' te cause, t'embrouille, te raisonne
Peine de cœur, y a pas mort d'homme
Et puis t'es pas assez beau
Pour faire la "une" des journaux
J' vais t'aider à l'oublier
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

Puis tu sais, ça sert à rien
D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
Ça s'rait trop lui accorder
À cell' qui t'a laissé tomber
Oui tu sais, ça sert à rien
D' mourir au d'ssus d' ses moyens
Elle s' fout d' c' qui peut t'arriver
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber

C'était un de ces étés chauds
Où le moindr' geste est de trop
Après 2 ou 3 bières glacées
T'as fini par te calmer
T'as r'trouvé l'appartement
Avec ta mère, son amant
D'puis qu' ton père a foutu le camp
Tu disjonctes trop souvent
C'est pas tout ça, j' vais retrouver
Celle qui t'a laissé tomber
