The Wayward Wind ((Danish Version: Den Vilde Vind (Four Jacks) - 1957)) Composer(s): Herb Newman - Stanley Lebowsky First release by: Gogi Grant - 1956 Covered by multiple other artists
Oh, the wayward wind is a restless wind A restless wind that yearns to wander And I was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind
In a lonely shack by a railroad track I spent my younger days And I guess the sound of the outward bound Made me a slave to my wand'ring ways
And the wayward wind is a restless wind A restless wind that yearns to wander And I was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind
Oh I met a girl in a border town I vowed we'd never part Tho' I tried my best to settle down She's now alone with a broken heart
And the wayward wind is a restless wind A restless wind that yearns to wander And I was born the next of kin The next of kin to the wayward wind The next of kin to the wayward wind

The Way You Make Me Feel
Composer(s): Michael Jackson
First release by: Michael Jackson - 1987
Hey pretty baby with the high heels on
You give me fever
Like I've never, ever known
You're just a product of loveliness
I like the groove of your walk,
Your talk, your dress
I feel your fever
From miles around
I'll pick you up in my car
And we'll paint the town
Just kiss me baby
And tell me twice
That you're the one for me
The way you make me feel
(The way you make me feel)
You really turn me on
(You really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet
(You knock me off of my feet)
My lonely days are gone
(My lonely days are gone)
I like the feelin' you're givin' me
Just hold me baby and I'm in ecstasy
Oh I'll be workin' from nine to five
To buy you things to keep yo
u by my side
I never felt so in love before
Just promise baby, you'll love me forevermore
I swear I'm keepin' you satisfied
'Cause you're the one for me
The way you make me feel
(The way you make me feel)
You really turn me on
(You really turn me on)
You knock me off of my feet now baby

My lonely days are gone

Rocky Composer(s): Jay Stevens Performer(s): Austin Roberts; Dickey Lee; Orion
Alone until my eighteenth year We met four springs ago She was shy and had a fear Of things she did not know But we got it on together In such a super way We held each other close at night And traded dreams each day
And she said, "Rocky, I've never been in love before Don't know if I can do it But if you let me lean on you Take my hand, I might get through it" (through it) I said, "Baby, oh sweet baby It's love that sets us free And God knows if the world should end Your love is safe with me"
We found an old gray house And you would not believe the way We worked at night to fix it up Took classes in the day Paintin' walls and sippin' wine Sleepin' on the floor With so much love for just two Soon we found there'd be one more
And she said "Rocky, I've never had a baby before Don't know if I can do it But if you let me lean on you Take my hand, I might get through it" (through it) I said, "Baby, oh sweet baby It's love that sets us free And God knows if the world should end Your love is safe with me"
We had lots of problems then but We had lots of fun Like the crazy party When our baby girl turned one I was proud and satisfied Life had so much to give 'Till the day they told me That she didn't have long to live
She said "Rocky, I've never had to die before Don't know if I can do it..."
Now it's back to two again The little girl and I Who looks so much like her sweet mother Sometimes it makes me cry I sleep alone at nights again I walk alone each day And sometimes when I'm about to give in I hear her sweet voice say, to me
"Rocky, you know you've been alone before You know that you can do it But if you'd like to lean on me Take my hand, I'll help you through it" (through it) I said, "Baby, oh sweet baby It's love that sets us free And I told you when the world would end Your love was safe with me"
She said "Rocky, you know you've been alone before You know that you can do it But if you'd like to lean on me...
The Way You Look Tonight Composer(s): Dorothy Fields - Jerome Kern First performance/First recording by: Fred Astaire - 1936/Guy Lombardo and His Royal Canadians - 1936 Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages: 1964 - Solo Un Momento Fa (Antonio & Corrado) 2003 - De Quoi A-T-Elle L'air Ce Soir? (Julien Clerc)
Someday, when I'm awfully low And the world is cold I will feel a glow just thinking of you And the way you look tonight
Yes, you're lovely With your smile so warm, and your cheek so soft There is nothing for me but to love you Just the way you look tonight
With each word your tenderness grows Tearing my fear apart And that smile that wrinkles your nose Touches my foolish heart
Lovely, never, never change Keep that breathless charm Won't you please arrange it, 'cause I love you Just the way you look tonight Just the way you look tonight
Comme Un Brasero Composer(s): Pierre Rapsat First release by: Pierre Rapsat - 1992
Quand les feuilles sont mortes Quand le vent du nord Se lève et les emporte Quand les gens soudain pressent le pas Quand le ciel est si gris Quand le ciel est si lourd Que l'on se croit maudit Quand la ville se cache sous le froid
Envie de chaleur Envie de toi Envie rien qu'une heure Tu es pour moi Un brasero qui brûle dans la nuit
Dans les rues de Laetitia On y trouve des lilas On chante l'Aziza Evidement ce n'est plus comme avant Et même, si tout le monde chante J'ai l'blues du music man Qu'on arrête qu'on débranche Et qui voit partir ses enfants
Envie de chaleur D'être avec toi Envie rien qu'une heure Tu es pour moi Un brasero qui brûle dans la nuit
Envie de chaleur Encore une fois Envie rien qu'une heure Vous êtes pour moi Des braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit Des braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit
Dans les salles de cinémas Chocolats glacés On vous entend parfois Que c'est bon de vous y retrouver
Envie de chaleur D'être avec toi Envie rien qu'une heure Tu es pour moi Un brasero qui brûle dans la nuit
Envie de chaleur Encore une fois Envie rien qu'une heure Vous êtes pour moi Des braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit
Et sur la grande place de Bruxelles La neige éclaire et étincelle Sous les braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit Les braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit Les braseros qui brûlent dans la nuit

Solo un momento fa eri qui con me vivevamo una stessa vita fatta di felicità
Solo un momento fa qui vicino a me mi dicevi tante, tante cose che nessuno mai dirà
Ora che non ci sei più non mi rimane nulla resta ormai di te solo il ricordo
Solo, solo un momento fa tu eri ancora qui a guardarmi con quegli occhi tristi che mai più potrò scordar scordar

Comme Tu Dois Avoir Froid (Complainte Pour Une Fille de Joie)
Comme Tu Dois Avoir Froid (Complainte Pour Une Fille de Joie) Composer(s): P. Carli; J.L. Morel Performer(s): Dalida
Comme tu dois avoir froid L'hiver comme un oiseau de proie De griffe en haut demeure en bas Dans la rue tu fais les cent pas Car tu attends quelqu'un je crois
Comme tu dois avoir froid Ta robe est trop courte pour toi La mode est cruelle parfois Car tu frissonnes sous la soie Et tu n'as même pas de bas
Et l'on dit que tu es Une fille de joie Oui l'on dit que tu es Une fille de joie
Comme tu dois avoir froid Un homme passe devant toi Et tu l'agrippes par le bras Et puis tu lui parles tout bas Il s'arrête et puis s'en va
Comme tu dois avoir froid La neige tombe sur les toits Et les enfants rient aux éclats Noël ne les oubliera pas Mais il ne viendra pas pour toi
Et l'on dit que tu es une fille de joie Et l'on dit que tu es une fille de joie Oui l'on dit que tu es une fille de joie
Rockin' In The Free World Composer(s): Neil Young Performer(s): Neil Young; and various other artists
There's colors on the street Red, white and blue People shufflin' their feet People sleepin' in their shoes But there's a warnin' sign on the road ahead There's a lot of people sayin' we'd be better off dead Don't feel like Satan, but I am to them So I try to forget it, any way I can
Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world
I see a woman in the night With a baby in her hand Under an old street light Near a garbage can Now she puts the kid away, and she's gone to get a hit She hates her life, and what she's done to it There's one more kid that will never go to school Never get to fall in love, never get to be cool
Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world
We got a thousand points of light For the homeless man We got a kinder, gentler Machine gun hand We got department stores and toilet paper Got styrofoam boxes for the ozone layer Got a man of the people, says keep hope alive Got fuel to burn, got roads to drive
Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world Keep on rockin' in the free world
The Way We Were ((Dutch Version: Wat Voorbij Is (Karin Bloemen) - 2006)) Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch - Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman First performance/First release by: Barbra Streisand - 1973/1974 and multiple other artists
M-M-M-M-Mem'ries light the corners of my mind Misty water-colored mem'ries of the way we were
Scattered pictures of the smiles we left behind Smiles we gave to one another for the way we were
Can it be that it was all so simple then Or has time rewritten every line If we had the chance to do it all again, tell me, would we, could we
Mem'ries may be beautiful and yet What's too painful to remember we simply choose to forget So it's the laughter we will remember Whenever we remember the way we were

Rocking Chair Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg Performer(s): Jane Birkin
Amour pervers Me susurre Henry Miller Dans son Tropique du Cancer Du Cancer Baudelaire Me donne ce soir la chair De poulette littéraire Dans mon rocking-chair
Apollinaire En a aussi des sévères Et des pas mûres dans ses vers Dans ses vers Onze mille ver- Ges me sens à bout de nerfs Agitée comme un shaker Dans mon rocking-chair
Est-ce en mystère Vingt ou en hélicoptère Que viendra Humbert Humbert Je m'f'rai légère Comme du polyester Basculée les jambes en l'air Dans mon rocking-chair
Wat Voorbij Is ((Adapted from: The Way We Were (Barbra Streisand) - 1973/1974)) Composer(s): Marvin Hamlisch - Alan Bergman - Marilyn Bergman - Hugo Verhaghe Performer(s): Karin Bloemen - 2006
Alles wat voorbij is en vergaan is niet weg, niet echt vergeten alles blijft bestaan
Al wat jij deed en wat jou is aangedaan al je huilen, al je lachen alles blijft bestaan
Soms weet je alleen en zonder zelfbedrog wat voorbij is raak je toch niet kwijt alles wat je wilt vergeten is er nog dat blijft altijd altijd
Alles wat voorbij is en vergaan ligt te wachten, stil te wachten dan breekt het door als een vulkaan
Want het verleden, slaat door het heden en je verleden dat blijft bestaan
Comme Tout L'monde
Composer(s): André Hornez - Paul Misraki
Performer(s): Ray Ventura
On a tous même apparence Un nez, deux yeux et deux oreill's Malgré de p'tit's différences Au fond l'on est bien tous pareils...
On a son p'tit cur qui bat Comm' tout l'monde On soupir' souvent tout bas Comm' tout l'monde Par l'amour on est mordu Comm' tout l'monde Puis un jour on voit qu'on est cocu Comm' tout l'monde
On a les mêmes coutumes Les mêmes désirs, les mêmes goûts On met les mêmes costumes Et même les mêmes dessous
On a un beau pyjama Comm' tout l'monde Des caleçons en zénana Comm' tout l'monde On a des chemis's coquett's Comm' tout l'monde Et puis aussi des trous à ses chaussettes Comm' tout l'monde
On est pareil en tout's choses Pour tout c'qu'on dit, pour tout c'qu'on fait Voilà pourquoi les mêmes causes Produisent les mêmes effets
Nous payons not' proprio Comm' tout l'monde Nous réglons le gaz et l'eau Comm' tout l'monde On paie cash le pot-au-feu Comm' tout l'monde Y a les impôts que l'on paie quand on peut Comm' tout l'monde
Nous sommes tous unanimes Pour rester jeunes et pas grossier On suit les mêmes régimes Pour mieux réussir à mincir
On grignote tristement Comm' tout l'monde Deux radis et un cur'dent Comm' tout l'monde On a des crampes d'estomac Comm' tout l'monde Alors en douce on s'envoie tout l'foie gras Comm' tout l'monde
Puisque nous sommes identiques On devrait avoir les mêmes idées Pourtant dans la politique On ne peut jamais s'accorder
On a des principes à nous Comm' tout l'monde On discut' souvent l'coup Comm' tout l'monde On s'appell': vendu !... voyou Comm' tout l'monde Mais dans le fond croyez-moi, on s'en fout Comm' tout l'monde
