She'd be hurt if she knew I was drinkin' Cause one's too much and twelve's not enough She knows how it messes up my thinkin' How it makes me look for someone else to love
I get honky tonk amnesia I forget where all my love belongs I get honky tonk amnesia And sometimes it lasts all night long
She'll accept my story without question About the overtime I'm puttin' in Till someone calls, she'll tell them that I'm restin' While I wonder what I've done and where I've been
I get honky tonk amnesia I forget where all my love belongs I get honky tonk amnesia And sometimes it lasts all night long
Stomping At The Savoy Composer(s): Edgar M. Sampson - Chick William Webb - Benny Goodman First release by: Chick Webb's Savoy Orch. - 1934 Covered by multiple other artists
Savoy, the home of sweet romance Savoy, it wins you at a glance Savoy, gives happy feet a chance to dance
Your form, just like a clingin' vine Your lips, as warm and sweet as wine Your cheek, so soft and close to mine, divine
How my heart is singin' While the band is swingin' Never tired of rompin' An' Stompin' with you at the Savoy
What joy, a perfect holiday Savoy, where we can glide and sway There let me stomp away with you
Savoy Savoy Savoy
Your form just like a clingin' vine Your lips, as warm and sweet as wine Your cheek, so soft and close to mine, divine
Oh, how my heart is singin' While the band is swingin' Never tired of rompin' An' Stompin' with you at the Savoy
What joy Savoy Savoy, there let me stomp away With you
Honky Cat Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin Performer(s): Elton John; and various other artists
When I look back boy I must have been green Bopping in the country, fishing in a stream Looking for an answer trying to find a sign Until I saw your city lights honey I was blind
They said get back honky cat Better get back to the woods Well I quit those days and my redneck ways And oh the change is gonna do me good
You better get back honky cat Living in the city ain't where it's at It's like trying to find gold in a silver mine It's like trying to drink whisky from a bottle of wine
Well I read some books and I read some magazines About those high class ladies down in New Orleans And all the folks back home well, said I was a fool They said oh, believe in the Lord is the golden rule
They said stay at home boy, you gotta tend the farm Living in the city boy, is going to break your heart But how can you stay, when your heart says no How can you stop when your feet say go
Et S'il Fallait Le Faire Composer(s): Anze Lazio - Fred Blondin
First performance by: Patricia Kaas - 2009
{Fréhel} Et puis regarde-moi D'abord, premièrement, c'est une chanson sentimentale Ça se chante avec tout son cur Tiens, regarde!
S'il fallait le faire J'arrêterais la Terre J'éteindrais la lumière Que tu restes endormi S'il fallait pour te plaire Lever des vents contraires Dans un désert sans vie Je trouverais la mer
Et s'il fallait le faire J'arrêterais la pluie Elle fera demi-tour Le reste de nos vies S'il fallait pour te plaire T'écouter chaque nuit Quand tu parles d'amour J'en parlerais aussi
Que tu regardes encore Dans le fond de mes yeux Que tu y voies encore Le plus grand des grands feux Et que ta main se colle Sur ma peau, où elle veut Un jour si tu t'envoles Je suivrai si je peux
Et s'il fallait le faire Je repousserais l'hiver À grands coups de printemps Et de longs matins clairs S'il fallait pour te plaire J'arrêterais le temps Que tous tes mots d'hier Restent à moi maintenant
Que je regarde encore Dans le bleu de tes yeux Que tes deux mains encore Se perdent dans mes cheveux Je ferais tout plus grand Et si c'est trop ou peu J'aurais tort tout le temps Si c'est ça que tu veux
Je veux bien tout donner Si seulement tu y crois Mon cur veut bien saigner Si seulement tu le vois Jusqu'à n'être plus rien Que l'ombre de tes nuits Jusqu'à n'être plus rien Qu'une ombre qui te suit
Stomp! Composer(s): Valerie Johnson - George Johnson - Louis Johnson - Rod Temperton Performer(s): The Brothers Johnson
Steppin' out the weekends open wide Fill it up let's blast the jams and ride While we're cruisin' around in the street Listen up for the party in feet
Slap me five that's the place we've arrived it's alive Ev'rybody take it to the top we're gonna Stomp all night wanna party Till morning light
Runnin' runnin' runnin' The set is hot there's people wall to wall Old gones young things short ones standing tall Grab the one with the smile on her face
And hit the floor and stay right on the case The heat is on and the funk just won't leave us alone Ev'rybody take it to the top we're gonna
Stomp all night in the neighbourhood Don't it feel all right gonna Stomp all night wanna party Till morning light
Stomp step down in it put your foot Where you feel the fit Stomp you don't want to quit Put your heels where you're feeling it
Stomp all night in the neighbourhood Don't it feel all right gonna Stomp all night wanna party Till morning light
Hong Kong Garden Composer(s): John McKay; Kenny Morris; Steven Severin; Siouxsie Sioux Performer(s): Siouxsie And The Banshees
Harmful elements in the air symbols clashing everywhere Reaps the fields of rice and reeds while the population feeds Junk floats on polluted water an old custom to sell your daughter Would you like number 23? Leave your yens on the counter please Hong Kong Garden
Tourists swarm to see your face Confuscius has a puzzling grace Disoriented you enter in unleashing scent of wild jasmine
Slanted eyes meet a new sunrise a race of bodies small in size Chicken Chow Mein and Chop Suey Hong Kong Garden takeaway Hong Kong Garden
Love Composer(s): Sasha Son First performance by: Sasha Son - 2009
I've had it all, as a little child I've done it all, as a little child But the pain that I had For the fame that I got, was for what?
A little girl is crying alone A little boy, searching for his home Giving up to a sin for a heart-craving dream Is that a sin?
If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love will love you back
For just one moment, we all wanna be Just as happy as one can be (So don't you make the same mistake) (You gotta give for what you take) And don't you break
A little girl or boy crying at home alone A faithful song will lead the way To make you strong
If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love
If you really love If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love would love to love you back
If you really love the love you say you love, really love Then surely that love would love Then surely that love Then surely that love Then surely that love will love you back Will love you back
Hong Kong Bar Composer(s): Tim Buckley; Joe Falsia Performer(s): Tim Buckley
Sittin' in a Hong Kong bar Sweet dreams of you darling Ah when we were sweet sixteen Mama makin' love in the belly of an old freight train Life was so simple and easy Oh the sun went down You took care of the children darlin' Then you felt like movin' away, Lord now you didn't stand and stare You felt like movin' and leavin' darlin' Didn't I treat you fair It's all right now darlin' It's alright now darlin'
Stolen Moments Composer(s): Oliver Nelson First release by: Oliver Nelson - 1961 Covered by multiple other artists
Stolen moments... Stolen moments... If I told you I love you, pretty baby Would it make up for what they say? If I hold you and shield you, darlin` Will you linger awhile today? If I hold you and hug you My kissin` won`t bug you The gossips won`t hurt you I`ll never desert you And someday will find us Where people won`t bind us To the hands of time I can use more than moments, pretty baby And I know where you steal them from There are so many things I`ll teach you And they call me a useless bum They just chatter and clatter And patter and matter They titter and twitter Their glitter gets bitter But we`re here I steered here It`s weird here Those beards, dear Watch the pantomime Watch the pantomime

Honey, honey Oh, honey, listen to my plea
Every honeybee Fills with jealousy When they see you out with me! I don't blame them, goodness knows Oh, honey! suckle rose!
When you're passin' by Flowers droop and sigh And I know the reason why You're my sweety, goodness knows Oh, honey! suckle rose!
I don't buy sugar You just have to touch my cup I don't need sugar It's sweet enough when you stir it up! When I'm taking sips From your dainty lips Seems the honey fairly drips You're confection, goodness knows Oh, honey! suckle rose

Mai avrei pensato a te Come mia complice Capace di capire ogni mia gioia o pianto La pace di un momento E' tutto cio' che siamo E' tutto cio' che sento?
E vedo te Come l'immenso Come una lacrima Su un foglio bianco Tra sesso e musica Ho immaginato te Che sei molto di piu' Qualcosa che non c'e'?
E sentirti parte di me E' come avere un angelo qui A sostenere ogni mio passo incerto E piove come sempre Quando ci ritroviamo Sospesi nel silenzio? (di un bacio)
E vedo te Come l'immenso Come una lacrima Su un foglio bianco Tra sesso e musica Ho immaginato te Che sei molto di piu' Qualcosa che non c'e'?
Come l'immenso Come una lacrima Su un foglio bianco Tra sesso e musica Ho immaginato te Che sei molto di piu' Qualcosa che non c'e'?
E vedo te Come l'immenso Come una lacrima Su un foglio bianco Tra sesso e musica Ho immaginato te Che sei molto di piu' Qualcosa che non c'e'?
Honeycomb Composer(s): Merrill Performer(s): Jimmie Rodgers; and various other artists
Well it's a darn good life And it's kinda funny How the Lord made the bee And the bee made the honey And the honeybee lookin' for a home And they called it honeycomb And they roamed the world and they gathered all Of the honeycomb into one sweet ball And the honeycomb from a million trips Made my baby's lips
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own What a darn good life When you got a wife like Honeycomb
And the Lord said now that I made a bee I'm gonna look all around for a green, green tree And He made a little tree and I guess you heard Oh, then well he made a little bird And they waited all around till the end of Spring Gettin' every note that the birdie'd sing And they put 'em all into one sweet tome For my Honeycomb
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own What a darn good life When you got a wife like Honeycomb
And the Lord says now that I made a bird I'm gonna look all round for a little ol' word That sounds about sweet like "turtledove" And I guess I'm gonna call it "love" And He roamed the world lookin' everywhere Gettin' love from here, love from there And He put it all in a little ol' part Of my baby's heart
Oh, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own Got a hank o' hair and a piece o' bone And made a walkin' talkin' Honeycomb Well, Honeycomb, won't you be my baby Well, Honeycomb, be my own What a darn good life When you got a wife like Honeycomb
Stockholmsserenad Composer(s): Tomas Adolphson - Anders Falk Performer(s): Adolphson & Falk
Det hörs ett vrål ifrån tusen kubik men för Jonny själv är det ljuvlig musik som en frihetssång genom nattens trafik mot en soluppgång
Intill en port väntar Cathrine med sin synt-pop och sin avmätta min men hon tinar upp när Jonnys maskin vrålar ut sin sång att natten är lång
i Stockholm i en Stockholmsserenad I Stockholm i en stockholmsserenad
Och hon tar på sina softade glas för hon vet så väl hur Jonny ska tas Hon kan spela med sin look och sin grace och sin säkerhet
Och dom flyr bort mellan sovande hus över tysta torg, under stjärnornas ljus och dom hör på håll storstadens brusande ljudlöshet och natten är het
i Stockholm ...
Det ryms en evighet innan hanarna gal innan Jonny står i sin datacentral med sin "frihetssång" och Cathrine är tillbaks vid sin portuppgång för natten är lång
