New Year's Day
Composer(s): Bono; The Edge; Adam Clayton; Larry Mullen
First release by: U2 - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
Yeah...
All is quiet on New Year's Day A world in white gets underway I want to be with you Be with you night and day Nothing changes on New Year's Day On New Year's Day
I will be with you again I will be with you again
Under a blood red sky A crowd has gathered in black and white Arms entwined, the chosen few The newspapers says, says Say it's true it's true... And we can break through Though torn in two We can be one
I...I will begin again I...I will begin again
Oh... Maybe the time is right Oh...maybe tonight...
I will be with you again I will be with you again
And so we're told this is the golden age And gold is the reason for the wars we wage Though I want to be with you Be with you night and day Nothing changes On New Year's Day On New Year's Day
Saturday In The Park Composer(s): Robert Lamm Performer(s): Chicago - 1972
Saturday in the park I think it was the Fourth of July Saturday in the park I think it was the Fourth of July People dancing, people laughing A man selling ice cream Singing Italian songs
Can you dig it (yes, I can) And I've been waiting such a long time For Saturday
Saturday in the park You'd think it was the Fourth of July Saturday in the park You'd think it was the Fourth of July People talking, really smiling A man playing guitar Singing for us all Will you help him change the world Can you dig it (yes, I can) And I've been waiting such a long time For today
Slow motion riders fly the colours of the day A bronze man still can tell stories his own way listen children all is not lost all is not lost
Funny days in the park Every day's the Fourth of July Funny days in the park Every day's the Fourth of July People reaching, people touching A real celebration Waiting for us all If we want it, really want it Can you dig it (yes, I can) And I've been waiting such a long time For the day
Saturday Night Composer(s): Sammy Cahn; Jule Stein Performer(s): Frank Sinatra and multiple other artists
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week 'Cause that's the night that my sweetie and I Used to dance cheek to cheek I don't mind Sunday night at all 'Cause that's the night friends come to call And Monday to Friday go fast And another week is past
But Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek Until I hear you at the door Until you're in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
mmmm... Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek Until I hear you at the door Until you're in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door Until you're in my arms once more Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
När Det Lider Mot Jul Composer(s): Ruben Liljefors; Jeanna Oterdahl Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog; and various other artists
Det strålar en stjärna förunderligt blid i öster på himlen hon står Hon lyst över världenes oro och strid i nära två tusende år När dagen blir mörk och när snön faller vit då skrider hon närmre, då kommer hon hit och då vet man, att snart är det jul
Ty julen är härlig för stora och små är glädje och ljuvaste frid är klappar och julgran och ringdans också är lycka, oändligen blid är ljus- allas ögon då stråla som bäst och stjärnorna tindra som mest och där ljuset är- där är det jul
Saturday Night Composer(s): Randy Meisner; Don Henley; Glenn Frey; Bernie Leadon First release by: Eagles - 1973
It seems like a dream now, it was so long ago The moon burned so bright and the time went so slow And I swore that I loved her and gave her a ring The bluebird was high on the wing
Whatever happened to Saturday night? Finding a sweetheart and holding her tight? She said "Tell me, oh, tell me, was I alright?" Whatever happened to Saturday night?
The years brought the railroad it ran by my door Now there's boards on the windows and dust on the floor And she passes the time at another man's side And I pass the time with my pride
What a tangled web we weave, go 'round with circumstance Someone show me how to tell the dancer from the dance
Whatever happened to Saturday night Choosing a friend and losing a fight? She said, "Tell me, oh, tell me, are you alright?" Whatever happened to Saturday night? Whatever happened to Saturday night?
My Christmas Tree Composer(s): Jimmy Webb Performer(s): Diana Ross & The Supremes; The Temptations
There's a Christmas tree In a window frame Just inside my door But my Christmas tree Doesn't look the same As it always has before
There's just one lonely present Beneath my Christmas tree 'Cause the best little present A girl ever had Has gone away from me
Oh, my Christmas tree is not very big In fact it's kind of small Honey went, he picked 'em out They always seem so tall
The lights don't seem so bright this year It's hard for me to see The smile that made my Christmas bright Is gone away from me
I have been so lonely Since you left me all alone All I want for Christmas is My baby back at home
Oh, my Christmas tree's so sad and bare My room's so big and cold They wish me happy new year But the new year is already on
There's no little angel On top where it used to be 'Cause the angel That made my Christmas right Has gone away from me... 'Cause the angel That made my Christmas right Has gone away from me... 'Cause the angel That made my Christmas right Has gone away from me...

Saturday Gigs Composer(s): Ian Hunter Performer(s): Mott the Hoople; Ian Hunter
Sixty-nine was cheapo wine Have a good time What your sign? Float up to the Roundhouse On a Sunday afternoon
In Seventy we all agreed A King's Road flat was the place to be 'Cause Chelsea girls are the best in the world for company
In Seventy-one all the people come Bust a few seats but it's just in fun Take the Mick out of Top of the Pops We play better than they do (yeah, yeah, yeah) In Seventy-two we was born to lose We slipped down snakes into yesterday's news I was ready to quit But then we went to Croydon
Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do
The tickets for the fantasy were twelve and six a time A fairy tale on sale
Oh, Seventy-three was a jambouree We were the dudes and the dudes were we (oh oh oh oh oh) Did you see the suits and the platform boots? (oh dear, oh boy, ...)
In Seventy-four on the Broadway tour We didn't much like dressing up no more Don't wanna be hip - but thanks for a great trip
Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do Do you remember the Saturday gigs? We do, we do But now the kids pay a couple of quid 'Cause they need it just the same It's all a game A grown-up game
But you got off on those Saturday gigs And we did, we did 'Cause you got off on those Saturday gigs And we did, we did And we got off on those Saturday gigs And you did, you did And we got off on those Saturday gigs 'Cause you did, you did
Don't you ever forget us We'll never forget you We're going to sleep now You better be good, right? (ha ha ha) See you next time [...?] So long for now
A Glorious angel from heaven came unto the Virgin Maid Strange News and tidings of great joy the humble Mary had the humble Mary had
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ came down from Heaven 'Twas for our sins and wicked ways His precious blood was given His precious blood was given
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ was put to scorn He was taken to the judgement seat and crowned with the thorn and crowned with the thorn
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ our Saviour died He was crucified upon the tree With theives on either side With theives on either side
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ died on the rood 'Twas for our sins and wicked ways Christ shed his precious blood Christ shed his precious blood
Each mortal man remembers well When Christ was wrapped in clay He was taken to a sepulchre Where never man did lay Where never man did lay
God bless your house, your children too Your cattle and your store The Lord increase you day by day And give you more and more And give you more and more
Saturation Composer(s): Ian Anderson Performer(s): Jethro Tull
They left me, leaving my house on fire, me running round got out through the window. While clinging to the skirts of fate was not my idea of fun I'll jump to it gladly The town was filled with smoke and hate Came to my senses just too late to realize that all I ever owned was borrowed I thanked them for having shown me that nothing ever really belongs to anyone
They burned my books and they broke my car and gave the dog to a man who used him for breeding They felled my trees and they tramped flowers and threw the kitten into my new pool The same things done to other men had made them run away from the city This being the case, I joined them there and breathing air spent the night with these new friends
Satisfied With You Composer(s): Dave Clark; Denis Payton Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five
I can see no reason But you're acting so strange Now put your trust in me You should try for a change And I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see Now don't be too concerned About what your friends might say Cause you're with me tonight And I'm gonna make you stay Cause I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you And you'll be satisfied with me, wait and see Yes, I'll be satisfied with you, girl I'll be satisfied with you You'll be satisfied with me, wait and see
Mr. Mistletoe everywhere you go you put mistletoe up above Every Christmas time you will alway find Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
He comes round at Christmas season he gives us all the reason To steal a kiss from someone that we know And although youll never see him you know that it must be him 'Cause everywhere you go theres mistletoe
When youre kissed below a piece of mistletoe by someone you know remember then Somewhere a little Elf is laughing to himself Mr. Mistletoe has done it again
He comes round at Christmas season...
Just like Santa Claus we love him because happiness is all hes thinking of And thats why well find every Christmas time Mr. Mistletoe and people in love Mr. Mistletoe and people in love
Satisfied Mind Composer(s): Jack Rhodes; Joe Hayes First release by: Porter Wagoner - 1956 Covered by multiple other artists
How many times have you heard someone say If I had his money I could do things my way But little they know that it's so hard to find Once rich man in ten with a satisfied mind
Once I was winning in fortune and fame Everything I could wish for to get a start in life's game Then suddenly it happened, I lost every dime But I'm richer by far with a satisfied mind
Money won't buy back your youth when you're old A friend when yuou're lonely or a love that's grown cold The wealthiest person is a pauper at times Compared to the man with a satisfied mind
When my life is over, my time has run out My friends and my loved ones will weep, there's no doubt But one things for certain, when it comes muy time I'll leave this old world with a satisfied mind
Satin Pillows Composer(s): Bob Tubert; Sonny James First release by: Bobby Vinton - 1965
Covered by: Sandy Posey - 1966
Satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on You've got nothing else to rely on You gave up the most precious thing in life You turned from love to be a rich man's wife The man you married is colder than all his gold You're something he bought to keep from growing old
Now you've got satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows tro cry on You've got nothing else to rely on And you've got fancy dresses and big cars Diamonds that outshine the brightest stars But diamonds can't replace the love we knew They won't keep you warm like my arms used to Now you've got satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on You've got nothing else to rely on Satin pillows to cry on Satin pillows to cry on

Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben Morgen, Kinder, wird's was geben morgen werden wir uns freun! Welch ein Jubel, welch ein Leben wird in unsrem Hause sein! Einmal werden wir noch wach heißa, dann ist Weihnachtstag!

Wißt ihr noch mein Räderpferdchen Malchens nette Schäferin Jettchens Küche mit den Herden und dem blankgeputzten Zinn? Heinrichs bunten Harlekin mit der gelben Violin?
Welch ein schöner Tag ist morgen! Viele Freunde hoffen wir uns're lieben Elternsorgen lange, lange schon dafür o gewiß wer sie nicht ehrt ist der ganzen Lust nicht wert
