En Dag Composer(s): Alexander Bard - Ola Håkansson - Tim Norell
First performance by: Tommy Nilsson - 1989
Mmm... En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann
En dag vi alla förstår En dag, när stillheten rår En dag jag finner din hand När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann
Vi bär på en längtan och vandrar omkring Vandrar men utan att se Vad som än händer, jag kommer till dig Stannar fast timmen är sen Stannar fast timmen är sen
Åh... En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann
Åh... Allt det vi söker, det finns här intill Allt som vi hoppas ska ske Åh... Vad som än händer, jag kommer till dig Stannar fast timmen är sen Åh... Stannar fast timmen är sen
Åh... En dag när vindarna bär En dag står du och jag här
Åh... En dag
När vägarna möts förstår vi varann En dag vi alla förstår Åh... En dag, när stillheten rår En dag jag finner din hand När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann (En dag när vindarna bär) En dag står du och jag här En dag när drömmen når fram När vägarna möts, förstår vi varann

Unlimited Capacity For Love Composer(s): Grace Jones; Barry Reynolds Performer(s): Grace Jones
The end's not in sight, it's gone way too far This could turn our another unwinning war It wasn't inherited, certainly not a joke So many human hearts, hanging in hope Unlimited capacity for love Unlimited capacity for love
And now I must add another to love in my life It's one thing to say, to do is another If Im capable of adapting without pressured expense In a schizoid society in a classic moral sense Unlimited capacity for love Umlimited capacity for love
How young I am now, stop counting the weeks We're safe from the vois, where they're still counting sheep Put the phone to the floor, you'll hear my heart beat Some people get married, but I'll never chat Unlimited capacity for love Unlimited capacity for love
The end's not in sight, it's gone way too far This could turn our another unwinning war It wasn't inherited, certainly not a joke So many human hearts, hanging in hope Unlimited capacity for love (repeat, fade)
Unlucky Luke Composer(s): Benny Hill Performer(s): Benny Hill
They say if you build a better mousetrap the world will beat a pathway to your house If Luke was to build a better mousetrap somebody'd breed a smarter mouse If it started raining soup his family'd all have forks If they was to cut a woman in two, he'd get the half that talks
Unlucky Luke, unlucky kid Why he broke into a betting shop and he lost four hundred quid Now his parents never loved him like they did his sister, Kim They could tied a kipper 'round his neck to get the cat to play with him And he cried the day that he was weened 'cause he knew even then It'd be twenty years before he was near anything like that again
They put his cradle on the ??? near the door So the folks downstairs could hear him when he fell out on the floor Now the saddest day of Luke's unhappy life, beyond a doubt Was the day he went to hospital to get his tonsils out He was on the operating theatre trolley sleeping sound When a short-sighted nurse came past and turned the trolley 'round
Unlucky Luke, no wonder he hollers His sick aunt died and in her will he owed her forty dollars Now Luke married Charlie's widow, a lady with no manners She had a figure like a hippo and face like a bag of spanners She told him she'd four children in the cemetary by the creek She forgot to tell they was down there playin' hide and seek
Unlucky Luke, at the age of fifty-two Had a wife, a girlfriend and a tax demand and all three were overdue Now Luke came home one lunch time, he'd been out selling lucky charms He tripped over a neighbour's cat and fractured both his arms He said, "Hey, that's a black cat, why that's lucky, I've a hunch" His wife said, "That cat's lucky 'cause he's just had your lunch"
Last night he lost his pet alsation pup So he phoned up the Samaritans but the Samaritans hung up Oh Luke, he had to go to France, his wife said, "I suppose you'll fly" He said, "With luck like mine the plane'll crash and I'm too young to die" So he sailed there in the safety of an ocean-going ship But he got drowned when the boat went down when the plane crashed into it"
Unlucky Luke, unlucky Luke Until the day he died fate was against unlucky Luke
Someone Saved My Life Tonight Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin First recording/First release by: Elton John - 1974/1975 Covered by multiple other artists
When I think of those East End lights, muggy nights The curtains drawn in the little room downstairs Prima Donna lord you really should have been there Sitting like a princess perched in her electric chair And it's one more beer and I don't hear you anymore We've all gone crazy lately My friends out there rolling round the basement floor
And someone saved my life tonight sugar bear You almost had your hooks in me didn't you dear You nearly had me roped and tied Altar-bound, hypnotized Sweet freedom whispered in my ear You're a butterfly And butterflies are free to fly Fly away, high away, bye bye
I never realised the passing hours of evening showers A slip noose hanging in my darkest dreams I'm strangled by your haunted social scene Just a pawn out-played by a dominating queen It's four o'clock in the morning Damn it listen to me good I'm sleeping with myself tonight Saved in time, thank God my music's still alive
And I would have walked head on into the deep end of the river Clinging to your stocks and bonds Paying your H.P. demands forever They're coming in the morning with a truck to take me home Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight, someone saved my life tonight Someone saved my life tonight So save your strength and run the field you play alone
Unnecessary Town From "Li'l Abner" Composer(s): Gene DePaul; Johnny Mercer Performer(s): Shelly Manne; Edith Adams; Percy Faith; André Previn
Oh it's unnecessary Just a speck on the map Where the trail from the Smokies Reaches old Gopher Gap With the sheep in the meadow And the bees in the comb Oh, it's unnecessary But it's home, sweet home
Oh it's unnecessary Just a small little town With the stars in the willow And the moon peeping down It's almost like a postcard Done in pure kodachrome Oh it's unnecessary But it's home, sweet home
With the sheep in the meadow And the bees in the comb Oh, it's unnecessary But it's home, sweet home

Stà notte e quanti baci amore Uno a te, uno a me finché l'alba non verrà Stà notte quanti abbracci ancore Uno a te, uno a me finché sembra un sogno ma è realta Nel cielo quante stelle d'or Una a te, una a me, finché l'alba non verrà La luna inciedia i nostri cuor Mezza te, mezza me, sembra un sogno ma è realtà
Ti voglio bene oh tanto tanto tanto Dolcissimo é l'incanto se stiamo cuore a cuore Ti voglio bene Non domandarmi quando mai finirà l'incanto Di questro nostro amor
Stà notte quanti baci amor Un a te, un a me, finché l'alba non verrà Stà notte quanti abbracci ancor Un a te, un a me, sembra un sogno, ma è realtà Nel cielo quante stelle d'oro Una a te, una a me, finché l'alba non verrà La luna inciedia i nostri cuor Mezz'a te, mezz'a me sembra un sogno ma é realtà

Uno Ad Uno French Title: Un Par Un Composer(s): Georges Calabrese; Charles Aznavour Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Un mare di servitù, una casa da re Le vetture, l'autista sempre pronti per me I cavalli, lo yatch e tutto un mondo che Apparteneva a me e non esiste più Il gioco lo ha portato con sè Uno ad uno Ho veduto andare via Uno ad uno i tappeti, i Renoir Tutte le antichità Uno ad uno Tranne il letto su cui Sto piangendo così, su di me E quanti amici brillanti, la mia corte di re Che guatava il mio verso ridendo per me E a fine mese poi, con regolarità Passavano qui, trovandosi così In momentanea difficoltà Uno ad uno Li ho veduti partire Uno ad uno Con dei pretesti a cui Non ho creduto mai Uno ad uno Li ho perduti per via Uno ad uno Rinnegarono me E un destino che è solo mio Una scrittrice di fama E un'aspirante star, qualche isterica dama Due figlie di papà Han cercato l'oblio Stando a letto con me E han giurato su Dio Di amare solo me Oltre i diamanti che... va da sè Uno ad uno Ho esaurito i poteri Uno ad uno Su quei corpi vestiti Di gioielli da me Uno ad uno scopro la verità Uno ad uno e mi dico perciò "Ma che stupido sei Proprio tu Proprio tu Proprio tu"
Why Do I Always Get It Wrong? Composer(s): John Beeby - Brian Hodgson First performance by: Live Report - 1989
No more sad songs for me to sing No more heartaches for you to bring me No more being the hurting kind I am running where you won't find me
Whenever I was lonely, I'd call you up and then I would soon regret my momentary weakness But it feels so strong Why do I always get it wrong?
No more sad songs on lonely nights No more seeking the wrongs or rights of it No more playing the fool for you You can do what you wanna do now
Whenever I was lonely, I'd call you up and then I would soon regret my momentary weakness But it feels so strong Why do I always get it wrong?
(No more sad songs, no more heartache) (I am running where you can't find me) No more sad songs for me to sing (No more sad songs, no more heartache) No more heartaches, no more heartaches So now you can't hurt me (I am running where you can't find me)
Sometimes I wish that we had never met (No more sad songs, no more heartache) 'Cause you're my weakness, you're my weakness You're my one and only regret (I am running where you can't find me)
I am runnin', runnin', runnin' where you won't find me (No more sad songs, no more heartache) Don't wanna play the fool for you (I am running where you can't find me) So go on your way, do what you gotta do
(No more sad songs, no more heartache) (I am running where you can't find me) (No more sad songs, no more heartache) (I am running where you can't find me)
Uno Mas, Otro Mas Composer(s): A. García Performer(s): Raphael
Uno mas, otro mas Con la toalla azul Tape mi desnudez En mi cara el rubor Y en mi mano el jabon Uno mas, otro mas La mili ya empece Hoy somos como cien Que en fila india van Ahora tu, luego yo Y uno mas, otro mas Aquella juventud Empezaba a vivir Al lado del cañon El rancho y el fusil Uno mas, otro mas
Muchachos como yo De toda condicion Alguno alli rio Y algun otro lloro Y uno mas, otro mas No fue ni trafalgar Tampoco fue bailen Fueron momentos que Todo me daba igual Uno mas, otro mas Mas juro que escuchar La voz del oficial Gritando ¡a formar! Acobardo a los cien Y uno mas, y otro mas
¿Por que sera? no se Mas yo juro por dios Que desde el dia aquel Escucho aquella voz Uno mas, otro mas La voz que consiguio A todos dominar La voz que nos trato A todos por igual Uno mas, y otro mas Y hoy cuando una mujer Se rinde ante mi amor Parece murmurar Igual que aquella voz Uno mas, otro mas
Si tu eres otro mas Te debes rebelar Y asi tratar de ser Tu mismo y no uno mas No se si es lo peor No se si es lo mejor Que te siga yo a ti O me sigas tu a mi Uno mas, otro mas Quizas me cortare Las piernas o tal vez Un dia me ahorcare Y asi jamas sere Uno mas, otro mas
Uno Su Mille Composer(s): Roberto Fia; Francesci Migliacci Performer(s): Gianni Morandi
Se sei a terra non strisciare mai se ti diranno sei finito non ci credere devi contare solo su di te uno su mille ce la fa ma quanto è dura la salita in gioco c'è la vita il passato non potrà tornare uguale mai forse meglio perché non tu che ne sai non hai mai creduto in me ma dovrai cambiare idea la vita è come la marea ti porta in secca o in alto mare com'è la luna va
Non ho barato né bluffato mai e questa sera ho messo a nudo la mia anima ho perso tutto ma ho ritrovato me uno su mille ce la fa ma quanto è dura la salita in gioco c'è la vita tu non sai che peso ha questa musica leggera ti ci innamori e vivi ma ci puoi morire quand'è sera io di voce ce ne avrei ma non per gridare aiuto nemmeno tu mi hai mai sentito mi son tenuto il mio segreto tu sorda e io ero muto se sei a terra non strisciare mai se ti diranno sei finito non ci credere finché non suona la campana vai
Uno, Dos Y Tres Composer(s): Manuel Benítez Carrasco Performer(s): Raphael
Uno, dos y tres Tres banderilleros en el redondel Sin las banderillas, tres banderilleros Solo tres monteras tras los burlaeros
Uno, dos y tres Luego tres capotes en el redondel Puntos cardinales de una geografia de sol y de sangre Y el toro en el sur
Una media luna sobre su testu Y uno, dos y tres El toro no sabe como obedecer Las manos en llama El uno lo llama pero no lo espera Tras un burlaero tiembla una montera Y el dos que lo cita ni lo quiere ver Coraje, coraje Cornadon de rabia, burladero al aire Y la voz del tres ¡Toro! ¡toro! ¡eh! Patas y pitones en busca del tres Pero el tres espera y... Uno, dos y tres Con tres capotazos le para los pies Punta de perca, mano burlaora Sal torero, sal ahora Y cuando el torero llamando... citando Fuerza la arrancada del toro Y parando temple a la embestida Mandando, marcando salida, burlando cornada y... Y uno, dos y tres Son de nuevo tres Tres banderilleros Solo tres monteras tras los burlaeros Uno, dos y tres Capotes al quite en el redondel
Someone cares, and now that someone cares There is no doubt about my outlook knowing someone cares Someone who has changed my point of view Whod ever think that holding hands was something new
And someone cares if I as much as frown Where Im concerned Ive learned shed turn the whole world upside down Lucky me to care for someone specially When that someone cares for me
And someone cares if I as much as frown Where Im concerned Ive learned shed turn the whole world upside down Lucky me to care for someone specially When that someone cares for me
Unpack Your Adjectives Composer(s): George Newall Performer(s): Blossom Dearie; Daniel Johnston; The Mr. T Experience
Came home from camping last spring Saw people, places and things We barely had arrived Friends asked us to describe The people, places and every last thing So we unpacked our adjectives I unpacked "frustrating" first Reached in and found the word "worst." Then I picked "soggy" and Next I picked "foggy" and Then I was ready to tell them my tale Because I'd unpacked my adjectives
Adjectives are words you use to really describe things Handy words to carry around Days are sunny or they're rainy Boys are dumb or else they're brainy Adjectives can show you which way
Adjectives are often used to help us compare things To say how thin how fat how short how tall Girls who are tall can get taller Boys who are small can get smaller Till one is the tallest And one is the smallest of all
We hiked along without care Then we ran into a bear He was a hairy bear He was a scary bear We beat a hasty retreat from his lair And described him with adjectives
Next time you go on a trip Remember this little tip The minute you get back They'll ask you this and that You can describe people, places and things Simply unpack your adjectives You can do it with adjectives Tell them about it with adjectives You can shout it with adjectives
