La Légende De Stenka Razine Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Lentement le longs des îles Souffle le vent, roulent les flots Glissent les barques agiles De Razine et ses matelots Sur le pont Stenka Razine Battent les coeurs, parlent les voix Tient sa belle douce et fine Tendrement au creux des ses bras
Pas de femme en notre cercle Serrent les poings, montent les cris La colombe a soumis l'aigle Le marin n'est plus qu'un mari Mais Razine reste calme Grincez les dents, haussez le ton Rien ne peut changer son âme Ni l'amour, ni la rébellion
Levant de ses mains puissantes Pleurent les joies, crève l'espoir Son aimée frêle et tremblante Il la jette dans les eaux noires Puis il dit parlant au fleuve Volga de mort, Volga de vie Volga prends mes amours veuves Pour toujours au fond de ton lit
Mes amis chantez que diable Buvez le vin jusqu'à la lie Jusqu'à rouler sous la table Jusqu'à demain, jusqu'à l'oubli Après tout la vie n'est qu'un leurre Un court et merveilleux passage L'amour que souvent on pleure N'est rien de plus qu'un mirage Faut vivre l'heure pour l'heure Profitons de ce voyage Qui ne dure pas
Au fond de nos verres Y'a l'oubli du temps qui passe Le vin et l'ami sincère Sont remèdes à l'angoisse Aujourd'hui pleure misère Demain fera volte-face Et tout changera Lentement le long des îles Souffle le vent, roulent les flots Glissent les barques agiles De Razine et ses matelots

On top of the world, just you and I So promise to never say goodbye Now I know, we are forever more

Hold On! Composer(s): P.F. Sloan; Steve Barri Performer(s): Herman's Hermits
Hold on, hold on
You've got a girl who really loves you (you've got a girl who really cares) She'll do anything you ask her to Yet you treat her wrong Oh you just string her along Brother, if I were in your shoes
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight And make the whole world know she's mine I would hold on, hold on, with all my might A love like hers is very hard to find
She does her best to make you happy she always does her very best) You do your best to make her blue Buddy, you've got it made But you'd rather go and play I know one thing for sure, if I were you
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight And make the whole world know she's mine I would hold on, hold on, with all my might A love like hers is very hard to find
She's always there each time you need her (each time you need her she is there) She gives her love so willingly But you just don't care You know that she'll be there How I wish she'd felt that way about me
I would hold on, hold on, hold on tight And make the whole world know she's mine I would hold on, hold on, with all my might A love like hers is very hard to find

Hold On To Your Dream Composer(s): Judith Durham Performer(s): Judith Durham
Oh the very longest journey Must begin with just one step But you have to have a little dream to start And then maybe someday you will find It's gonna be your turn If you hold on to your dream within your heart If you hold on to your dream within your heart
Every winner started out With really nothing but a dream There is something in this world they want to do And they started on that journey And no stone was left unturned Till they made that favourite special dream come true
And we see the culmination Of their efforts and their dreams There's no limit to the things that can be done And they give us inspiration All is possible it seems There is nothing you can't do beneath the sun
Vertigo Composer(s): Philip Vella - Gerard James Borg First performance by: Olivia Lewis - 2007
You're spinnin' me round and you're holdin' me down Lovin' you gives me vertigo I'm losin' my ground, givin' in to your heart Kissin' you gives me vertigo
And I'm lost, then I'm found And I run, then I hide And I turn, you're not there I say yes, you say no Lovin' you gives me vertigo
And I give, but you take I made one big mistake Gave you all, A to Z Then you came, now you go Lovin' you gives me vertigo
You're liftin' me high, then you're takin' me low It's feelin' like I'm getting vertigo You colour me blue, turn my passion to red It's feelin' like I've become indigo
And I give, but you take I made one big mistake Gave you all, A to Z Then you came, now you go Lovin' you gives me vertigo
Am I crazy? Could it be maybe Solo is the way to go?
(And I'm) lost, then I'm found And I run, then I hide And I turn, you're not there I say yes, you say no Lovin' you gives me vertigo
And I give, but you take I made one big mistake Gave you all, A to Z Then you came, now you go Lovin' you gives me vertigo
Hold What You've Got Composer(s): Guy Draper; Joe Tex Performer(s): Joe Tex; and various other artists
You'd better hold on to what you've got You'd better hold on to what you've got 'Cause if you think nobody wants it Just throw it away and you will see Someone will have it before you can count 1, 2, 3 Yes they will, yes they will Listen fellows, you know it's not all the time That a man can have a good woman That he can call his very own A woman who will stay right there at home And mind the children while he's gone to work A woman who will have his dinner cooked When he comes home Where some men make mistakes is When they go out and stay because they feel No other wants his woman but him Well listen, if you think no other man wants her Just throw her away and you will see Some men will have her before you can count 1, 2, 3 Yes he will, yes he will
Listen girls, this goes for you too Because you know I've seen so man women Who've had so many good men in life Men who would stand by them thru thick and thin Men who'd go to work everyday and Bring home their hard earned pay Men who'd give their woman anything Their little hearts desired Where some women make mistakes is When their men go out and let em play they would stay Because they felt that no other woman wanted him but her Well listen, if you think no other woman wants him Just pitch him out in the street and you will see Some woman will have your man Before you can count 1, 2, 3 Yes she will, yes she will
Stella By Starlight Composer(s): Ned Washington - Victor Young First performance by: Victor Young and His Orch. - 1944 Covered by multiple other artists
The song a robin sings Through years of endless springs The murmur of a brook at eventide That ripples by a nook where two lovers hide A great symphonic theme That's Stella by starlight And not a dream My heart and I agree She's everything on earth to me
A great symphonic theme That's Stella by starlight And not a dream My heart and I agree She's everything on earth to me
Hold On To My Love Composer(s): Robin Gibb; Blue Weaver Performer(s): Jimmy Ruffin; Warren Shaw; Vikki Shepard
Today, you came by, to tell me you are leaving me and to say, that the love, and all that we knew had just drifted away And I look, in your eyes, and I couldn't bare the pain I felt inside, of my heart To think I'm gonna be lonely again, and if e-ever then I know at a glance that I don't stand a chance
Chorus:
Hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you Your the light of my life There's no living without (your love)
It's so hard, to believe, that your going away could make me feel so down 'Cause I know, that from this moment on I won't have you around And if e-ever you go, then I know at a glance that I won't stand a chance
Chorus:
So hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you Your the light of my life There's no living without (your love)
Ooooh, oh baby, nobody's taking your place But for you, but for me, our love would live on for the whole world to see
Chorus:
So hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you Your the light of my life There's no living without your love No, no, no, no Hey Whooo
Honey hold on (hold on), to my love (my love) I'm nothing (hold on) and I can't get along without you (hold on) Your the light, your the light, of my life (my life) There's no living without (your love) (Hold on, to my love) Hold on, cause I'm nothin girl, and I can't get along without you you, your the light of my life (my life) And I just can't live without you
Valentine Lost Composer(s): Sveinn Rúnar Sigurðsson - Peter Fenner First performance by: Eiríkur Hauksson - 2007
I'll let the music play while love lies softly bleeding In heavy hands on shadowlands As thunderclouds roll in, sunset is receding No summer wine, no Valentine
A tiger trapped inside a cage An actor on an empty stage Come see the show Rock n' roll can heal your soul When broken hearts lose all control
Some rivers still run dry and jungles burn to embers Gold autumn days must fade to grey There is a reason why a haunted man remembers One frozen night, his darkest day
A tiger trapped inside a cage An actor on an empty stage Come see the show Rock n' roll will heal your soul When broken hearts lose all control
A passion killed by acid rain A rollercoaster in my brain But how would you know? In your satin, silk and lace Another time, another place
A tiger trapped inside a cage An actor on an empty stage Come see the show Rock n' roll will heal your soul When broken hearts lose all control
A love let loose and painted black A train stuck on a broken track Well, I'll let it go Rock n' roll has healed my soul The stage is set, on with the show
Hold On Composer(s): Chris Anderson; Trevor Rabin; Chris Squire Performer(s): Yes
Justice to the left of you Justice to the right Speak when you are spoken to Don't pretend you're right This life's not for living It's for fighting and for war No matter what the truth is Hold on to what is yours
Jigsaw puzzle traitors Set to spill the beans Constitution screw up Shattering the dreams Blood flows in the desert Dark citadels burning too Watch! Look over your shoulder This one is strictly for you
Hold on - Hold on Wait maybe the answer's Looking for you
Hold on - Hold on Wait! Take you time Think it through Yes! I can make it through
Hold on - Hold on Sunshine shine on through Hold on - Hold on Sunshine shine on you
See it through
Talk the simple smile Such platonic eye How they drown in incomplete capacity Strangest of them all When the feeling calls How we drown in stylistic audacity Charge the common ground Round and round and round We living in gravity
Shake - We shake so hard How we laugh so loud When we reach We believe in eternity
I believe in eternity
Hold on - Hold on Wait - Take your time Sunshine shine on through See it through Hold on - Hold on Wait - Maybe a chance Sunshine shine on through Is looking for you Sunshine shine on you
Hold on - Hold on Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine - Shine on shine on you Sunshine - Shine on through Sunshine - Shine on shine on through Sunshine - Shine on you
Sunshine - Shine on - Shine on you Hold on - Hold on Sunshine - Shine on through Wait - Take your time See it through Sunshine - Shine on - Shine on through Hold on - Hold on Sunshine - Shine on you Wait - Maybe the answer's looking for you

Hold On Composer(s): Rosanne Cash Performer(s): Rosanne Cash
If you want to keep a woman like me, you got to hold on If you want to see how good it can be, baby, hold on All my friends think that I'm a fool I tell you something honey, they're not that cool If you want to keep a woman like me, you better hold on
If you want to know how far we can go, you got to hold on If you take it slow then I got something to show you Baby, hold on All those girls with their empty heads Can't fill 'em up with the lies they've been fed If you want to know how far I can go, you got to hold on
She'll give you reasons for her kind You might believe it, but I'm not that blind
If you think you need a woman like me, you better hold on If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on All this small talk that keeps us apart Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts If you want to keep a woman like me, baby, hold on
Hold On Composer(s): Dan Hill Performer(s): Dan Hill; Ann Christy
So you flung your fist high in the air But the world remained the same And all the demonstrations Filtered out through graduation And the times that were a changing Never changed Freedom takes on new meaning When you have a family of five And peace and revolution dissolved in its own solution When you're fighting for your life Just to survive
It's then you've gotta
Hold on - for what you believe in Hold on - don't let it fade Still you've gotta Be strong - find yourself a reason You never change the world But just the same You've gotta hold on stronger Each and every day When the night creeps in so hollow When the silence makes you scream When you're so damned scared of failure When the world's burned out it's saviors When you're feeling too vulnerable to dream
It's then you've gotta Hold on - for what you believe in Hold on - don't let it fade Still you've gotta Be strong - find yourself a reason You never change the world But just the same You've gotta hold on stronger Or else you'll fade
Hold On Composer(s): Benjamin Orr; Diane Grey Page Performer(s): Benjamin Orr
Well you sure look good tonight I think I've come to see sunlight Come on, hold on to me Belong to me
You know that love looks good on you In what you say and what you do Come on, hold on to me It's all I need
I gotta do the _____ in time __________ Not a thing to show for all the times I've tried Now we just can't seem to wipe the smile away And you gave it to me
Give it up - I'm feeling something beautiful Look at this - we're starting to be suitable to me Every day I find what you got into us Can't seem to get enough of you
When you're away, I dream that you... Come on and hold on to me Belong to me
And so it never really ends You mend the hurts that never mend Come on, hold on to me It's all I need
Where did all what I had in my run for me, guess ya...
Gotta take the blinders off so that you can see Not a thought comes by that doesn't hang on you And what did I do before?
Can't believe that this is really happening All the hurtful days are finally vanishing Making all the fantasies realities We could be in for some surprises
I know it - you know it too. Before you think of compromises Just realize it's only here for you
Yeah, you sure look good tonight I think I've finally seen sunlight Come on, hold on to me It's all I need.
And so it never really ends You mend the hurts that never mend Come on and hold on to me
Belong to me
Gotta make for bringing out the best to me When the love is is right, it's possible to see you so clearly All my life I wondered would it come to me
(come to me)
Then you brought it to me Can't believe that this is really happening All the hurtful days are finally vanishing Making all your fantasies realities
Where did all what I had in my run for me, guess ya... Gotta take the blinders off so that you can see Not a thought comes by that doesn't hang on you And what did I do before?
