Well, me and my girl went out the other night Down lover's lane we were walkin' She said, uh, honey child Do you love me? Right away I started talkin' Is a blue bird blue? Has a cat got a tail?
Mmm, if a blue bird's blue Then honey, I love you
Well, I held her close and kissed her Then I looked in those big green eyes She said, uh, hey boy Do you love me? I said, I wouldn't be at all surprised Is a blue bird blue? Can a big wheel roll?
Mmm, if a blue bird's blue Then honey, I love you
Well, she finally believed my story Said baby, I understand Well now, I'm gonna be your little lovin' bird And you'll be my big lovin' man Is a blue bird blue? Has a bear got hair?
Mmm, if a blue bird's blue Then honey, I love you
Ah, is a blue bird blue, baby? Ah, tell me honey, has a bear got hair?
Nido De Amor Composer(s): Octavio Daza Performer(s): El Gran Combo De Puerto Rico; Jorge Oñate; Julios Rojas
Amor de mi vida no te vayas pa'l colegio di que estás enferma y quédate un rato conmigo Mira pa'l cielo que se están formando negros nubarrones y están cayendo las primeras gotas de un fuerte aguacero y tú bien sabes que cuando llueve nunca hay clase en el colegio (bis)
Al besar tus labios veo cerrar tus ojos yo te noto muy triste ya mañana me voy pero aquí en el alma yo me llevo el recuerdo eterno de tus besos donde deposité todo mi amor ese amor que heredé de mis abuelos y que en mi pecho mas se engrandeció
Mira mi amor por muy alto que vuele y se eleve el águila siempre regresa a su nido con precisión por muy lejos que yo me vaya pronto regreso a tu lado porque tú eres mi nido de amor Amor que vas a perder cuando ya estemos casados
Ahora está escampando se han mojado hasta los libros tiemblas en mis brazos azotada por el frío quiero fundirme en tu cuerpo de niña y brindarte el calor tú eres muy joven llena de secretos, no sabes mi amor Cuando te bese no tengas miedo eso no se aprende en el colegio (bis)
Ya cesó la lluvia, aparece el sol brillan los árboles, que tarde bella mira como se crece el arroyito como corren alegres sus aguas hacía mucho tiempo no le llovía así debe crecerse nuestro amor ser un ejemplo de pureza vida mía
Mira mi amor por muy alto que vuele y se eleve el águila siempre regresa a su nido con precisión por muy lejos que yo me vaya pronto regreso a tu lado porque tú eres mi nido de amor Amor que vas a perder cuando ya estemos casados
Nicolas Et Marjolaine Composer(s): J.F. Porry; Gérard Salesses Performer(s): Dorothée
On les voit toujours ensemble Nicolas et Marjolaine On dit même qu'ils se ressemblent Nicolas et Marjolaine Deux enfants nés en septembre Il y a dix ans à peine
Nicolas et Marjolaine Ne savent pas dire je t'aime Mais la vie qui les entraîne A tout jamais les enchaîne
A l'école du village Nicolas et Marjolaine Quelques fois ne sont pas sages Au lieu de leur théorèmes Ils écrivent au bas des pages De leurs cahiers des poèmes
Nicolas et Marjolaine Ont appris à dire je t'aime Et la vie qui les entraîne À tout jamais les enchaîne
On ne les voit plus ensemble Nicolas et Marjolaine Nicolas s'en est allé A la ville pour étudier C'est là qu'il s'est marié Et Marjolaine a pleuré
Nicolas et Marjolaine Ne savent plus dire je t'aime Jours de joie et jours de peine C'est la vie qui se déchaîne Nicolas et Marjolaine C'était toi et c'était moi Mais je veux te dire quand même Que souvent je pense à toi
Irreversiblemente Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Irreversiblemente me elige la caída cada vez que intento, junto a tí resucitar Remuevo el alma, impulso latidos, persigo a ciegas la alta luz que un día, ¿cuándo fue? diseminó sobre nuestras almas su hálito divino Pero son en vano mis aspavientos amadisimo cuerpo del alma... caigo siempre, irreversiblemente como un cometa caigo a las cenizas dispersas de tu anatomía a los mismísimos restos de aquel infierno, ya extinguido que también una noche ¿cuándo fue? logró fundir nuestros cuerpos transfigurados
Nicolas Composer(s): Istvan; S. Nagy; M. Mallory; P. Mate Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan
Non ce n'est rien qu'une chanson qui revient quelquefois Rien qu'un sourire, en souvenir d'un garçon d'autrefois Quand mes jours sont gris Qu'il neige sur ma vie, il revient dans ma mémoire Au lycée Français un soir il m'attendait Il souriait Nicolas
{Refrain:} Nicolas, Nicolas, ma première larme ne fût que pour toi On était, des enfants, notre peine valait bien celle des grands Nicolas, Nicolas, c'était de l'amour, on ne le savait pas C'est la vie, qui nous prend Qui nous emmène où elle veut et où elle va
Un homme enfant, aux yeux trop grands, sur un quai, qui pleurait Il a neigé, beaucoup depuis, sur là bas, sur Paris Et il ne sait rien, de moi et de ma vie Ce que je fais, qui je suis Il ne connaît pas, l'autre Maritza, il garde la vraie là-bas
Nicolas, Nicolas mon premier chagrin s'appelle comme toi Je savais, que jamais, je ne reviendrai ici auprès de toi Nicolas, Nicolas c'était de l'amour, on ne le savait pas C'est le temps, qui s'en va Qui invente toutes nos peines et nos joies. Nicolas, Nicolas, ma première larme ne fût que pour toi On était des enfants, notre peine valait bien celle des grands Nicolas, Nicolas, c'était de l'amour, on ne le savait pas C'est la vie qui nous prend Qui nous emmène où elle veut et où elle va Nicolas, Nicolas.....
Irrésistiblement Composer(s): Georges Aber; Jean-Marie Renard Performer(s): Sylvie Vartan; Paul Mauriat
Tout m'entraine, irrésistiblement vers toi comme avant Tout m'enchaine, irrésistiblement à toi je le sens
Comme le jour revient après la nuit Et le soleil toujours après la pluie Comme un oiseau qui revient vers son nid Vers mon amour je vais aussi
Tout m'entraine, irrésistiblement vers toi à chaque instant Tout m'enchaine, irrésistiblement à toi je le sens
Comme la mer qui frappe le rocher Obstinement sans jamais desarmer Par le malheur on est souvent frappe Mais l'amour seul peut nous sauver
Tout m'entraine, irrésistiblement vers toi a chaque instant Tout m'enchaine, irrésistiblement à toi je le sens
Comme la joie revient après les pleurs Après l'hiver revient le temps des fleurs Au moment où l'on croit que tout se meurt L'amour revient en grand vainqueur
Tout m'entraine, irrésistiblement vers toi comme avant Tout m'enchaine, irrésistiblement à toi je le sens
Nick Of Time Composer(s): Brian Johnson; Angus Young; Malcolm Young Performer(s): AC/DC
Wrong track, wrong line First train to run on time Bad blood, bad news Long rope, got nothing to lose Mad bull seeing red Coming at me, happy when I'm dead Jump a fence, get away Ain't got a liking for the games he plays What you gonna do?
Everybody trying to find you guilty Make you wanna tow the line Saved by, saved in the nick of time I was saved in the nick of time
Slow plane, hard rain Cold sweat and I feel the strain Look down, no ground Black sky, just the engine sound Bail out, goodbye Take my chances, I don't wanna die Count ten, just pray The nick of time can save me any day What you gonna do?
Everybody love a hero, honey Living on a danger line Saved by, saved in the nick of time I was saved in the nick of time
Lose sleep, get grief Some day get no relief Quick punch, closed eye You didn't knew it and you wonder why Lynch mob on your tail Think they were searching for the holy grail Leave town, get away I didn't figure on them anyway No I didn't today
Everybody trying to find you guilty Make you wanna tow the line Saved by, saved in the nick of time I was saved in the nick of time
Irresistible Force Composer(s): Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb; Barry Gibb Performer(s): Bee Gees
In the name of love and life Turn your face to the lonely night But you're not alone when she calls you home And this your world is on the edge As good as lost but you know the way Through the faceless town And she pulls me down
I know the place and the time (of our lives) So long ago And all through the years (never dies) All things must pass
Irresistible force meets an immovable object and Human animal madness and blood starts to flow Invisible fingers and indescribable pleasure I get to find my personal god I get to find my personal god
God of love, god of gold Ring of fire in the days of old It's what I'm living for and love's the only law So answer Mayday, S.O.S. Search me North, East, South, or West It's all I miss, just the one last kiss
This is goodbye to the days (of our lives) My fair-weather friend I feel your sorrow and tears (they are mine) I share to the end
Irresistible force meets an immovable object and Human animal magic How far can you go? The rolling of thunder and you decide what you're after
I get to find my personal god I get to find my personal god
I surrender All or nothing You must spread your wings and fly
I know the place and the time (of our lives) My fair-weather friend I feel your sorrow and tears (they are mine) We share to the end When an irresistible force meets an immovable object Human animal madness and blood starts to flow there's bound to be heartbreak You make it the hard way
I surrender All or nothing You must spread your wings and fly
Nice Work If You Can Get It Composer(s): George Gershwin; Ira Gershwin Performer(s): Fred Astaire; and various other artists
The man who only lives for making money Lives a life that isn't necessarily sunny Likewise the man who works for fame There's no guarantee that time won't erase his name The fact is, the only work that really brings enjoyment Is the kind that is for girl and boy meant Fall in love and you won't regret it That's the best work of all, if you can get it Holding hands at midnight 'Neath a starry sky Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try Strolling with the one girl Sighing sigh after sigh Nice work if you can get it And you can get it if you try Just imagine someone Waiting at the cottage door Where two hearts become one Who could ask for anything more? Loving one who loves you And then taking that vow It's nice work if you can get it And if you get it, won't you tell me how?"
Just imagine someone Waiting at the cottage door Where two hearts become one Who could ask for anything more? Loving one who loves you And then taking that vow Nice work if you can get it And if you get it, won't you tell me how?"

Iron Horse Composer(s): Jeff Christie Performer(s): Jeff Christie
Through the plains and valleys Across the great divide White man brought his thunder From the other side
Burning smoke and wing of steel Breathing fire from flaming wheels Reaching out for a new frontier Making sure the way was clear
Iron horse, iron horse Keep on burning on its course Iron horse, iron horse Burning on and on Keep on burning on
Over sand and water Across the canyon too Through the crimson sunset Its mighty whistle blew
Burning smoke and wing of steel Breathing fire from flaming wheels Reaching out for a new frontier Making sure the way was clear
Iron horse, iron horse Keep on burning on its course Iron horse, iron horse Burning on and on Keep on burning on
Iron horse, iron horse Keep on burning on its course Iron horse, iron horse Keep on burning on Keep on burning on Keep on burning on Keep on burning on

Oh wont you stay Stay a while with your own ones Dont ever stray Stray so far from your own ones cause the world is so cold Dont care nothing for your soul That you share with your own ones

Theres a stranger And hes standing at your door Might be your best friend, might be your brother You may never know
Im going back Going back to my own ones Come back to talk Talk a while with my own ones cause the world is so cold Dont care nothing bout your soul You share with your own ones
Oh wont you stay One more day with your own ones Dont rush away Rush away from your own ones This old world is so cold Dont care nothing for your soul You share with your own ones

So nice in Nice, so nice and neat So nice in Nice, so nice and neat Don't tell me lies You can't support I wouldn't believe you I wouldn't believe at all Even if I saw

So nice in Nice, so nice and neat So nice in Nice, so nice and neat
She walks straight ahead And walks all over you She smiles and breaks you heart But that's OK
Irish Free State (Traditional) Performer(s): Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds
I went to see David, to London to David I went to see David, and what did he do? He gave me a Free State, a nice little Free State A Free State that's bound up with Red, White and Blue I brought it to Dublin to show to Dail Eirann I brought it to Dublin, and what did they do? They asked me what kind of a thing was a Free State A Free State that's tied up with Red, White and Blue
"Three quarters of Ireland a nation," I told them "Tied on to the Empire with Red, White and Blue And an oath they must swear to King George and Queen Mary An oath they must swear to the son-in-law new I'm teaching them Irish and painting their boxes All over with green, sure, what more can I do? Yet they tell me they want just an Irish Republic Without any trimmings of Red, White and Blue!
Nicaragua Composer(s): Christian Gaubert; Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Nicaragua c'est Managua, la ville Il reste encore une rafale, un signe Une blessure sur le futur, fragile Palais déserts, des aigles en pierre se signent Quand la mémoire écrit l'histoire latine
Nicaragua
Vivre là, survivre là, aimer là Sans trop savoir si c'est possible De vivre là, survivre là, rester là Presque en exil, comme sur une île
Matagualpa, Nicaragua, la ville Aigles penchés sur des statues civiles Un ciel tendu comme un tissu, fragile Dans la sierra c'est la contra servile Musique FM contre kalas latines
Nicaragua
Vivre là, survivre là, dormir là Sur la fissure, sans être sûr De vivre encore, survivre encore, aimer encore La liberté jusqu'à la mort Si c'est possible

Curry Wurst: Anything can happen on Halloween Its better than a video Gremlins gonna mess up every cassette From London to Idaho April first can be fun New Years Eve is a bore But on Halloween your flesh begins to crawl Oh, Im losing control Anything can happen on Halloween Your toenails grow long and your hair turns green Your teacher could become a sardine Your dentist could turn into a queen Has anybody seen my tambourine I may start playing Begin the begin The craziest night youve ever seen This hairy, scary, creepy, crawly, Halloween
Onde andará Nicanor? Tinha mãos de jardineiro Quando tratava de amor Há tanta moça na espera Suas gentis primaveras Um desperdício de flor Onde andará Nicanor? Tinha amor pro porto inteiro Um peito de remador Ah, quem me dera as morenas Pra consolar suas penas Para abrandar seucalor
Olha elas sempre aflitas Bata o vento ou caia chuva Cada uma mais bonita E mais viúva Todas elas fazem ninho Da saudade e da virtude Mas carinho Queira Deus que Deus ajude
Onde andará Nicanor? Tinha nó de marinheiro Quando amarrava um amor Mas há recantos guardados Nos sete mares rasgados Sete pecados tão bons Onde andará Nicanor?
