This Is Romance
Composer(s): Edward Heyman - Vernon Duke
Performer(s): Ben Bernie & His Orch. 
and multiple other artists



High above, a night of love is calling us
Countless crowds of silver clouds enthralling us
You and I together, lovers of a feather
Heaven's near with you my dear with me

This is romance, there's a sky to invite us
And a moon to excite us, yet you turn from my kiss
This is romance, it's a moment of splendour
Oh yet you fail to surrender to a night such as this

What dreamy magic of your eyes
Enchanted my heart
But will the magic of your love
Be granted my heart

I'm in a trance, let me be heaven bound dear
This is paradise found dear
Sweetheart this is romance.
La-da-da-dee,la-da-da-da-da-dee
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dee
Yet you turn from my kiss
La-da-da-dee,la-da-da-da-da-dee
La-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da-dee
To a night such as this

What dreamy magic of your eyes
Enchanted my heart
But will the magic of your love
Be granted my heart

I'm in a trance, let me be heaven bound dear
This is paradise found dear
Sweetheart this is romance

Crazy Blues
Composer(s): J.P. Richardson
First release by: The Big Bopper - 1957



The door slammed, you walked away
His arm around you, I heard you say
I never loved him, I love but you
Lord, these cra-a-a-zy blues

I'm going down town to buy a gun
Gimme that long black shiny one
I'm gonna end it, my troubles loose
Lord, these cra-a-a-zy blues

I made you my queen, both night and day
Snap your little finger and I'd be your slave
You didn't wanna wear the crown
Didn't wanna be queen
You got the kind of lovin' makes me wanna scream

So roll me over, roll me slow
The wounds that I made, they hurt me so
The wounds that you made, they hurt me too
And Lord, these cra-a-a-zy blues

I made you my queen, both night and day
Snap your little finger and I'd be your slave
You didn't wanna wear the crown
Didn't wanna be queen
You got the kind of lovin' makes me wanna scream

So roll me over, roll me slow
The wounds that I made, they hurt me so
The wounds that you made, they hurt me too
And Lord, these cra-a-a-zy blues

J'Aime Paris Au Mois De Mai
English Title: Paris Is At Her Best In May
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Pierre Roche
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour;
and various other artists



J'aime Paris au mois de mai
Quand les bourgeons renaissent
Qu'une nouvelle jeunesse
S'empare de la vieille cité
Qui se met à rayonner
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
Quand l'hiver le délaisse
Que le soleil caresse
Ses vieux toits à peine éveillés

J'aime sentir sur les places
Dans les rues où je passe
Ce parfum de muguet que chasse
Le vent qui passe
Il me plaît à me promener
Par les rues qui s'faufilent
A travers toute la ville
J'aime, j'aime Paris au mois de mai

J'aime Paris au mois de mai
Lorsque le jour se lève
Les rues sortant du rêve
Après un sommeil très léger
Coquettes se refont une beauté
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
Quand soudain tout s'anime
Par un monde anonyme
Heureux de voir le soleil briller

J'aime quand le vent m'apporte
Des bruits de toutes sortes
Et les potins que l'on colporte
De porte en porte
Il me plaît à me promener
Dans les rues qui fourmillent
Tout en draguant les filles
J'aime, j'aime Paris au mois de mai

J'aime Paris au mois de mai
Avec ses bouquinistes
Et ses aquarellistes
Que le printemps a ramenés
Comme chaque année le long des quais
J'aime Paris au mois de mai
La Seine qui l'arrose
Et mille petites choses
Que je ne pourrais expliquer

J'aime quand la nuit sévère
Etend la paix sur terre
Et que la ville soudain s'éclaire
De millions de lumières
Il me plaît à me promener
Contemplant les vitrines
La nuit qui me fascine
J'aime, j'aime Paris au mois de mai

This Is Pop?
Composer(s): Andy Patridge
Performer(s): XTC



In a milk bar and feeling lost
Drinking sodas as cold as frost
Someone leans in m direction
Quizzing on my juke-box selection
What do you call that noise
That you put on?

This is pop
Yeah Yeah

This is!

On a walkway and moving fast
All I get is transistor blast
Someone leans in my direction
Quizzing on my station selection
What do you call that noise
That you put on?

This is pop
Yeah yeah

This is!

We come the wrong way
We come the long way
We play the songs much too loud

This is pop
Yeah yeah

Crazy Arms
Composer(s): Ralph Mooney; Charles Seals
First release by: Kenny Brown & Marilyn Kaye - 1956
Covered by multiple other artists



Now blue ain't the word for the way that I feel
And a storm's brewing in this heart of mine
This ain't no crazy dream, I know that it's real
You're someone else's love now, you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
For my yearning heart keeps sayin' you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time

So please take the treasured dreams I had for you and me
And take all the love I thought was mine
Someday my crazy arms may hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonesome I could cry

Blue's not the word for that way that I feel
And the storm brewing in this heart of mine
This is no treasured dream, I know that it's real
You're someone else's love now, you're not mine

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
But my yearning heart keeps sayin' you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time

Please take the treasured dreams I had for you and me
And take all the love I thought was mine
Someday my crazy arms will hold somebody new
But now I'm so lonely all the time

Crazy arms that reach to hold somebody new
But my yearnin heart keeps sayin you're not mine
My troubled mind knows soon to another you'll be wed
And that's why I'm lonely all the time

This Is Not America
Composer(s): David Bowie - Pat Metheny - Lyle Mays
First release by: David Bowie and Pat Metheny Group - 1985
Covered by multiple other artists



This is not America, sha la la la la

A little piece of you
The little peace in me
Will die [This is not a miracle]
For this is not America

Blossom fails to bloom
This season
Promise not to stare
Too long [This is not America]
For this is not the miracle

There was a time
A storm that blew so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have
The faintest idea

[For this is not America, sha la la la la, sha la la la la, sha la la la la
This is not America, no, this is not, sha la la la la]

Snowman melting
From the inside
Falcon spirals
To the ground [This could be the biggest sky]
So bloody red
Tomorrow's clouds

A little piece of you
The little piece in me
Will die [This could be a miracle]
For this is not America

There was a time
A wind that blew so young
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have the faintest idea

[For this is not America, sha la la la la, sha la la la la, sha la la la la
This is not America, no, this is not, sha la la la
This is not America, no, this is not
This is not America, no, this is not, sha la la la]

Crazy
Composer(s): Hank Williams Jr.
Performer(s): The Manhattans



Ah...

Girl, I can't believe
The love you're givin' me
Took me by surprise
For your love wears no disguise

And ah...you turn my head around
You blow my mind with a love
That makes me feel so good

My world is upside down
And the feeling's strong
You really got me going

Crazy
About your lovin', girl
It's crazy

Please stay my lady
Without your love
I'll just go crazy

Thinking back in time
When loneliness was mine
My life was bare
Without a love to share

But now you turned my life around
You build me up and I know I'm really winning
In you, the love I've found
(I'm all shook up) My head is spinnin', girl

It's just crazy
How much I love you, girl
It's crazy

Please stay my lady
Without your love
I'll just go crazy

So let me hold you in a warm embrace
In our love all fears erase
Far as the sun shall surely rise
Never a tear shall touch your eyes

`Cause I'm crazy
About your lovin', girl
It's crazy

Please stay my lady
Without your love
I'll just go crazy

Whoa, whoa, it's crazy
How much I love you, girl
It's crazy

Please stay my lady
Without your love
I'll just go crazy

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ah...
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh, ah...

Crazy
How much I love you, girl
It's crazy

Please stay my lady
Without your love
I'll just go crazy

I'm just crazy
About your lovin', girl
It's crazy

Ooh, stay my lady

J'aime, j'aime, j'aime la chanson
que tu me chantais souvent
J'aime, j'aime, j'aime la chanson qui rappelle nos quinze ans
(A quinze ans on rêvait de partir, à Venise où ailleurs souviens-toi)
Souviens-toi, comme nous étions heureux quand on dansait tous les deux
(C'est vrai, je n'osais pas t'embrasser, et tu sais, je n'ai rien oublié)

Et dis-moi, dis, qu'est-ce que tu deviens, je suis mariée tu sais bien
J'aime, j'aime, j'aime la photo où tu me prends dans tes bras
J'aime, j'aime, j'aime les mots d'amour que tu me disais tout bas
(Je t'aime comme la première fois, mais tu vois, rien n'est plus comme avant)
Aujourd'hui toi, tu vis loin de moi et le monde est différent
(Je sais bien, c'est chacun pour soi, et nous n'aurons plus jamais quinze ans)

N'oublie pas que l'on s'était promis de s'aimer toute une vie

This Is No Laughing Matter
Composer(s): Van Loman - Martin Block - Al Frisch

and multiple other artists



I have a feeling that something is wrong
This is not the way that things should be
We've known each other too well and too long
You don't have to act with me

This is no laughing matter
Somehow I want to cry
I know your sweet and idle chatter
Really means goodbye
This is no laughing matter
I thought we'd never part
This is no time for pretty patter
While you break my heart
What of all the moon dreams shared together
Beside the garden wall
Love can't always have that perfect weather
A little rain must fall
Think of the dreams you'll shatter
If you should say we're through
This is no laughing matter
Darling, I'm in love with you

Crazy
Composer(s): Willie Nelson
First release by: Patsy Cline - 1961

Crazy
I'm crazy for feelin' so lonely
I'm crazy
Crazy for feelin' so blue
I knew you'd love me as long as you wanted
And then someday
You'd leave me for somebody new

Worry, why do I let myself worry?
Wonderin' what in the world did I do?

I'm crazy
For thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for cryin'
And crazy for tryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you

Crazy
For thinkin' that my love could hold you
I'm crazy for cryin'
And crazy for tryin'
And I'm crazy for lovin' you

Comme un jour qui va venir
Un chagrin qui va finir
Une porte qui va s'ouvrir
Une étoile qui brille

Comme un couple qui va s'unir
Une larme qui va mourir
Un enfant qui va grandir
Je n'aime que lui

J'aime le plein soleil
Qui crève le ciel quand il sourit
J'aime le pleins d'amour
La vie qui court autour de lui
J'aime la terre immense
La nuit qui danse quand il est là
J'aime même ma peine pour qu'il revienne
Quand il s'en va

Ma vie se lit sur son visage
Et le temps n'a plus d'âge
J'aime le pleins soleil
Qui crève le ciel quand il sourit
J'aime le pleins d'amour
La vie qui court autour de lui

Comme un jour qui va venir
Un chagrin qui va finir
Une porte qui va s'ouvrir
Je n'aime que lui

This Is My World
Performer(s): Tommy Steele



This is my world, a world of splendour
Swanky and rich and fine
This is a world I won’t surrender
Now that I’ve made it mine
A world that is full of wonderful things
Dukes and their duchesses, nobles and kings
I’ll be king for more than a day
Whatever they say, I’ll keep it that way
For this is the world that I was meant for
This is the world for me
I wouldn’t give a blimmin’ cent 
For life as it used to be
For now that I’m tasting the pleasures of life
Even a fool can see
This is my world, a world of splendour
Swanky and rich and fine
This is a world I won’t surrender
Now that I’ve made it mine

For this is the world that I was meant for
This is the world for me
I wouldn’t give a blimmin’ cent
For life as it used to be
For now that I’m tasting the pleasures of life
Even a fool can see
That this is my world
This is my world
This is my world
And this is the world for me

You just got out of school last year
And all your friends ask, hey what you doing here?
Somehow you just can't mix with kids your age
She knows what she likes
I know you look much older now
But you ain't figured out life somehow
You got a different number on every page
She knows, she knows what she wants 

Crazy, crazy, you amaze me
Crazy lady, rearrange me
Crazy baby, I'm so in love with you right now

You're growing up before your time
You think everybody's saying ooh but you're looking fine
You're learning fast, you sure have come a long way
She knows she knows what she likes
I know you don't think much of me
'Cos you've got plans on just what you oughta be
You've got a different face for every day
She knows, she knows what she wants

Crazy, crazy, you amaze me
Crazy lady, rearrange me
Crazy baby, I'm so in love with you right now

Crazy, crazy, you amaze me
Crazy lady, rearrange me
Crazy baby, I'm so in love with you right now ...

J'aime quand le vent nous taquine
Quand il joue dans tes cheveux
Quand tu te fais ballerine
Pour le suivre à pas gracieux
J'aime quand tu reviens ravie
Pour te jeter à mon cou
Quand tu te fais petite fille
Pour t'asseoir sur mes genoux
J'aime le calme crépuscule
Quand il s'installe à pas de loup
Mais j'aime a espérer crédule
Qu'il s'embraserait pour nous
J'aime ta main qui me rassure
Quand je me perds dans le noir
Et ta voix elle murmure
De la source de l'espoir
J'aime quand tes yeux couleur de brume
Me font un manteau de douceur
Et comme sur un coussin de plumes
Mon front se pose sur ton cœur

Down In Jungle Town
Composer(s): Edward Madden - Theodore Morse
Performer(s): Spike Jones & his City Slickers
and multiple other artists



Down in Jungle Town
A honeymoon is comin' soon
There will be a serenade
To a pretty monkey maid
And soon a big baboon
Comes out to spoon beneath the moon
Oh she'll be true to monkey doodle doo
Way down in Jungle Town

And so we left the teeming little village and struck out into the mysterious jungle 
By native grapevine we had learned of a tribe of ferocious man-eating cannibals 
who held in their midst, Mamo, a beautiful white goddess 
After hacking our way through the dense undergrowth for hours, we finally came into a clearing 
There in the moonlight was Mamo, surrounded by a group of half crazed savages chanting the song of death

(Iiieee-yaaa, Pistol Packin' Mamo lay that pistol down)

J'aimais les fées et les princesses
Qu'on me disait n'exister pas
J'aimais le feu et la tendresse
Tu vois je vous rêvais déjà

J'aimais les tours hautes et larges
Pour voir au large venir l'amour
J'aimais les tours de cœur de garde
Tu vois je vous guettais déjà

J'aimais le col ondoyant des vagues
Les saules nobles languissant vers moi
J'aimais la ligne tournante des algues
Tu vois je vous savais déjà

J'aimais courir jusqu'à tomber
J'aimais la nuit jusqu'au matin
Je n'aimais rien non j'ai adoré
Tu vois je vous aimais déjà

J'aimais l'été pour ses orages
Et pour la foudre sur le toit
J'aimais l'éclair sur ton visage
Tu vois je vous brûlais déjà

J'aimais la pluie noyant l'espace
Au long des brumes du pays plat
J'aimais la brume que le vent chasse
Tu vois je vous pleurais déjà

J'aimais la vigne et le houblon
Les villes du Nord les laides de nuit
Les fleuves profonds m'appelant au lit
Tu vois je vous oubliais déjà

The look on your face
It could never explain your heart
And the touch of my lips 
It could never tell u my thoughts

And U want me to change 
I can't get used to 
All U want me to be
I just can't pretend 
To be anyone else
Cuz it's not really me 

This is my world
This is who I am
And I'm not gonna give up myself 
To make your life better 

She said
This is how it is
I got my own life to live
And U can either accept me 
Or baby 

And if it's love
That we share
Then we can withstand all 
The obstacles that life brings forth 
And I will receive you
For who U are who u were 
And baby who U will be 

But U want me to change
Girl I can't get used to 
All U want me to be
And I just can't pretend 
To be anyone else, oh

To make your life better, now

Giving you all I can now

If your life turns around
In my heart there is room for u

To make your life better

Crawling From The Wreckage
Composer(s): Graham Parker
First release by: Dave Edmunds - 1979



Got out really early from the factory
Driving like a nut in the rain
Don’t think I was acting so hysterically
But I didn’t see a thing until it came
Man the drunks were verbal in the takeaway
Beating up the chinese at the counter

I put a few inside me
At the end of the day
I took out my revenge
On the revolution counter

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
You’d think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car

In walks bud with his exploding nose
He’d been giving it maximum today
He shouted how the devil
You in trouble I suppose
But all you ever do is run away
Turned up the motor into hyper-drive
I wasn’t gonna take any of that
Don’t get bright ideas about a suicide
’cause all I ever hear
Is zoom wam bam past me

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
You’d think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car

Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage
Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage
Crawling, crawling, crawling from the wreckage

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Bits of me are scattered
In the trees and in the hedges
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car

Nothing seems to happen that ain’t happened before
I see it all through flashes of depression
I dry up my drink and hear
People running for the door
God I make some kind of impression
’cause when I’m disconnected from the driving wheel
I’m only half the man I should be
But metal hitting metal isn’t all I feel
And everything is good as
It possible could be

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
You’d think by now at least that
Half my brain would get the message
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Bits of me are scattered
In the trees and in the hedges
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Into a brand new car

Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling from the wreckage
Crawling, crawling
Crawling from the wreckage
