Llamada Composer(s): Carlos Toro Montoro Performer(s): Imperio del Amor
Te conocí un día diferente, y decidí quererte sin pensar después te vi perderte entre la gente, y no volví a verte nunca más Voy por ahí en busca de tus huellas, por si el amor las puede descubrir pero se ve que tengo mala estrella, porque a la vez te tuve y te perdí Una sonrisa, dos ojos de cielo tres bromas de esas que rompen el hielo cuatro semanas y cinco promesas me acercan a ti Seis rosas secas y siete poemas ocho preguntas que nadie contesta nueve secretos y diez cartas rotas me alejan de ti Si alguna vez te sientes atrapada, si alguna vez oyes esta canción acuérdate, de que es una llamada, de un corazón a otro corazón Voy por ahí en busca de tus huellas, por si el amor las puede descubrir pero se ve que tengo mala estrella, porque a la vez te tuve y te perdí Una sonrisa, dos ojos de cielo tres bromas de esas que rompen el hielo cuatro semanas y cinco promesas me acercan a ti Seis rosas secas y siete poemas ocho preguntas que nadie contesta nueve secretos y diez cartas rotas me alejan de ti Una sonrisa, dos ojos de cielo tres bromas de esas que rompen el hielo cuatro semanas y cinco promesas me acercan a ti
C'est Bon L'amour

Performer(s): Joe Dassin - 1970
Laisse la nuit, le vent du nord Il fait chaud dans la chambre Laisse la pluie tomber dehors Que l'hiver nous attende
C'est bon l'amour qui tourne la tête C'est bon l'amour qui saoûle
Viens, tant mieux si la nuit s'étire Nous avons des choses à nous dire Hmmmm, tu sais que c'est un scandale On a pas le droit d'être si belle
Et c'est bon l'amour, oui, oui c'est bon À croquer sur ta bouche Et c'est chaud l'amour, oui, oui c'est chaud Voler sur ta peau douce
C'est bon l'amour qui tourne la tête C'est bon l'amour qui saoûle
Viens plus près de moi et qu'importe Si demain le soleil emporte Et de ces quelques heures loin du monde Nous ferons la nuit la plus longue
C'est bon l'amour qui tourne la tête C'est bon l'amour qui saoûle
Lizzie Borden Composer(s): Michael Brown Performer(s): Chad Mitchell Trio and multiple other artists
Yesterday in old Fall River, Mr. Andrew Borden died And they got his daughter Lizzie on a charge of homicide Some folks say she didn't do it others say of course she did But they all agree, Miss Lizzie B. was a problem kinda kid
'Cause you can't chop your papa up in Massachausettes Not even if it's planned as a surprise No, you can't chop your papa up in Massachausettes You know how neighbors love to criticize
Well, she got him on the sofa where he'd gone to take a snooze And I hope he went to heaven, 'cause he wasn't wearing shoes Lizzie kinda rearranged him with a hatchet so they say Then she got her mother in that same old fashioned way
But you can't chop your mama up in Massachausettes Not even if you're tired of her cuisine No can't chop your mama up in Massachausettes You know it's almost sure to cause a scene
Oh they really kept her hoppin on that busy afternoon With both down and upstairs hoppin while she hummed a ragtime tune They really made her hustle and when all was said and done She removed her mother's bustle when she wasn't wearing one
Now can't chop your mama up in Massachausettes And then blame all the damage on the mice No you can't chop your mama up in Massachausettes That sort of thing just isn't very nice
Now it wasn't done for pleasure and it wasn't done for spite And it wasn't done because the lady wasn't very bright She'd always done the slightest thing that mom and papa bid They said, "Lizzie, cut it out!" so that's exactly what she did!
But you can't chop your papa up in Massachausettes And then get dressed and go out for a walk No you can't chop your papa up in Massachausettes Massachausettes is a far cry from New York
Shut the door and lock and latch it - here comes Lizzie with a brand new hatchet!
Such a snob I heard it said, she met her pa and cut him dead!
Jump like a fish - jump like a porpoise, all join hands and habeas corpus!

Lizzie And The Rainman Composer(s): Kenny O'Dell - Larry Henley Performer(s): Tanya Tucker; Bobby Goldsboro
He came riding in on the sunrise on a hot west Texas day A fancy man in a painted wagon with some fancy things to say Looks like you folks need some water Well, water is my game And for the small price of one hundred dollars I bet ya I can make it rain
Step back non-believers Or the rain will never come Someone start that fire a burning Somebody beat the drum He said some may think I'm crazy To make all these claims But I swear before this day is over You folks are gonna see some rain
They all just stood there staring Trying to believe But there was one named Lizzie Cooper Who said he was a lying cheat
She said you call yourself a rainman Well you ought'a be ashamed For starting all these people dreaming Thinking you can make it rain
Step back non-believers Or the rain will never come Someone keep that fire a burning Somebody beat the drum He said some may think I'm crazy For making all these claims But I swear before this day is over You folks are gonna see some rain
Hey Lizzie well a man's got to have a dream And if you can't walk on the inside with me I'll meet you in between Oh come with me Lizzie And the stars will write your name And if you still think I'm lying to you Looky there yonder there comes the rain
C'est Bon D'être Seul
Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
J' sais qu' les temps ont bien changé Que j' n'ai pas su me recycler Qu'il faut jouer d' l'ordinateur Qui s'en balance bien des rêveurs L'amour sur Internet A remplacé la couette On gagne du temps Mais plus d' sentiments Faut quand-même dire merci A ces grands moments d' la vie Où on s' sent seul Merci, merci, c'est bon d'être seul
J' sais remplir un cendrier Découvrir la vérité Dans un' bouteille entre amis Voir le jour quand la nuit finit Mais il faut s' mettre au CD-ROM S' parler par téléphone C'est important D' remuer du vent Faut quand-même dire merci A ces grands moments d' la vie Où on s' sent seul Merci, merci, c'est bon d'être seul
Je n'sors plus de chez moi J' suis dev'nu hypocondriaque Je m'méfie d' tout Et surtout D' la pollution d' la ville Qui m' tétanise, qui m' fragilise J'ai peur de tout J'ai besoin d'un gourou J' veux pas sortir armé Mes nerfs pourraient craquer Pour peu qu'on m' dise: Bonjour Et c'est "Pearl Harbor" en plein jour
Ça s'rait trop négligé Cinéma-vérité Peu important On en voit tout l'temps
Mais faut quand-même dire merci A ces grands moments d'la vie Où on se sent seul Merci, merci, c'est bon d'être seul

More than the greatest love
The world has known
This is the love I'll give to you alone
More than the simple words I try to say
I only live to love you more each day
More than you'll ever know
My arms long to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more
More than you'll ever know
My arms they long to hold you so
My life will be in your keeping
Waking, sleeping, laughing, weeping
Longer than always is a long, long time
But far beyond forever you'll be mine
I know I never lived before
And my heart is very sure
No one else could love you more

Le Petit Trottin (Simple Histoire) Composer(s): André Hornez - Henri Bourtayre Performer(s): Tohama
Sur le trottoir un petit trottin, trottait D'un air mutin par un matin d'été Au coin de la rue un beau garçon chantait Il lui sourit... Elle lui sourit... Et tout sourit Leurs deux sourires ayant coïncidé Il la suivit d'un petit pas décidé Comme il avait de la suite dans les idées Il dit: Bonjour Elle dit: Bonjour Ah! Quel beau jour Ce n'est pas très original Mais ça valait un grand discours Car un mot n'est jamais banal Quand on le dit avec amour Et puis, ensuite il lui a demandé Si on allait du côté d'Saint-Mandé? C'est un petit coin qu'on m'a recommandé Il dit: Tu viens? Elle dit: Je viens Ça tombait bien
Au bord de l'eau où des pêcheurs pêchaient Nos amoureux soudain se sont penchés Comme il pensait les choses qu'elle pensait Il l'enlaça Elle l'enlaça Et coetera Pendant ce temps l'eau du ruisseau coulait Sur chaque branche un oiseau roucoulait Et quand les fleurs fermèrent leurs volets Il dit: Toujours Elle dit: Toujours C'est beau l'amour Et puis au rendez-vous suivant Elle mit sa robe de taffetas Les oiseaux étaient tous présents Mais l'amoureux ne revint pas... Près de l'étang les saules pleureurs pleuraient Et sur la route qui semblait désolée Un petit trottin s'en revint tout seulet Si mon refrain N'finit pas bien Je n'y peux rien Car c'est la simple histoire du tout petit trottin

Moonraker Composer(s): John Barry; Hal David Performer(s): Shirley Bassey
Where are you? Why do you hide? Where is that moonlight trail that leads to your side? Just like the Moonraker goes in search of his dream of gold I search for love, for someone to have and hold...
I`ve seen your smile in a thousand dreams Felt your touch and it always seems You love me! ... You...love...me
Where are you? When will we meet? Take my unfinished life and make it complete Just like the Moonraker knows, his dream will come true someday I know that you are only a kiss away I`ve seen your smile in a thousand dreams Felt your touch and it always seems...
Living Together, Growing Together Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David Performer(s): The 5th Dimension and multiple other artists
Start with a man and you have one Add on a woman and then you have two Add on a child and what have you got? You've got more than three You've got what they call a family
Living Together, Growing Together, just being together That's how it starts Three loving hearts all Pulling together, working together, just building together That makes you strong If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow Living and growing together
It just takes wood to build a house Fill it with people and you have a home Fill it with love and people take root It's just like a tree Where each branch becomes a family that's Living Together, Growing Together, just being together That's how it starts Three loving hearts all Pulling together, working together, just building together That makes you strong If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow Living and growing together

Moonlighting Composer(s): Frank Farrell; Leo Sayer Performer(s): Leo Sayer
He sees her at the same time every night At the Mexican discotheque She gives him French kisses He gives her French cigarettes They sit at the same table every time The lights are low, but their eyes shine Just digging the music from those sweet soul bands She keeps him outta fights, holds on to his hand He whispers slowly "Tonights the night" Months of planning so its gotta be right Under the table her bag is bursting at the seams She made sure to bring everything
Moonlighting Theyre leaving everything Moonlighting Theyre losing all their friends Moonlighting Its the only way Its frightening But it means theyll stay Together Theyre gonna make it together
His blue Morris van is parked in an alley Just by Montague Street His friend Eddie he did the re-spray So he couldnt drive it all last week And it cost most of the money that he had saved up To pay Eddies receipt But he figures its worth it cos the disguise is a must When they go missing theyre gonna look for the van first She whispers slowly "Itll be alright I took some cash from my building society And my monthly cheque came in just right" If only they knew they were giving it away
Moonlighting Theyre leaving everything Moonlighting Theyre losing all their friends Moonlighting Its the only way Its frightening But it means theyll stay Together Theyre gonna make it together
9:15 Monday morning at the printing works The boss notices someones not clocked in And the water department of the council offices has a message That Mrs. Parks daughter is missing Meanwhile, the Carlisle turn-off of the M6 Motorway Drinking cold black coffee, eating hot cup-cakes She stares at him with his beard unshaved Wonders at his powers of staying awake He whispers slowly "You did just fine" They shared the driving all through the night She laughs "My mother will have lost her mind Were only ten miles to Gretna, theyre three hundred behind"
Moonlighting Theyre leaving everything Moonlighting Theyre losing all their friends Moonlighting Its the only way Its frightening But it means theyll stay Together Theyre gonna make it together Moonlighting Theyre leaving everything Moonlighting Theyre losing all their friends Moonlighting Its the only way Its frightening But it means theyll stay Together Theyre gonna make it together
Living Together (In Sin) Composer(s): J. Cobb - Van McCoy Performer(s): The Whispers
Your folks and mine want to disown us We're two sinners, they say They don't approve of how we're livin' But we're happy this way
They say we're living together in sin 'Cause we're not married Living together in sin But both of us are grown And love is ours to choose To each his own, we're in love
All of our friends never invite us And they don't come around But that's alright, we have each other The world, they put us down
And say we're living together in sin 'Cause we're not married Living together in sin But both of us are grown And love is ours to choose To each his own, we're in love
They say we're living together in sin They don't understand You're my woman and I'm you're man You and me against the world I'm you're man and you're my girl
If loving you is a sin Then I'm gonna sin again and again and again and again Mom and Dad, can't you see That we love each other, why can't it be?
For you, I'd turn my back on family and friends For you, I'd do it again and again and again, and again, and again and again, and again, and again ...
