    A Palo Seco
    Composer(s): Belchior
    Performer(s): Belchior
    and multiple other artists



    Se você vier me perguntar por onde andei
    No tempo em que você sonhava
    De olhos abertos lhe direi
    Amigo eu me desesperava
    Sei que assim falando pensas
    Que esse desespero é moda em 76
    Eu ando um pouco descontente
    Desesperadamente eu falo português
    Desesperadamente eu falo português
    Tenho 25 anos de sonho e de sangue
    E de América do Sul
    Mas por força do meu destino
    Um tango argentino
    Me cai bem melhor que um blues
    Sei que assim falando pensas
    Que esse desespero é moda em 76
    Eu quero é que esse canto torto feito faca
    Corte a carne de vocês
    Corte a carne de vocês

    Hoy No Pienso Igual
    Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
    Performer(s): Raphael



    Ya ves, hoy no pienso igual
    He cambiado de parecer
    Y estas cosas que tanto ame
    No las quiero ver mas

    Diras que no puede ser
    Que mis labios mintiendo estan
    Que en el fondo yo quiero igual
    Todo aquello que quise ayer

    Pero yo comence a vivir
    Y la vida me demostro
    Que sin ti todo sigue igual
    En cualquier lugar de este mundo

    Ya ves, hoy no pienso igual
    He cambiado de parecer
    Y a estos sitios donde te ame
    No quisiera volver yo jamas

    Yo crei que no habia mas
    Que el amor era nuestro amor
    Yo crei que acababa en ti
    La felicidad y el dolor

    Pero ayer comence a vivir
    Y la vida me demostro
    Que yo puedo vivir feliz
    En cualquier lugar de este mundo sin ti

    A Pair Of Old Sneakers
    Composer(s): Larry Kingston - Glenn Sutton
    Performer(s): Tammy Wynette & George Jones



    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    Stringin’ each other along
    Sometimes I feel just like a heel
    ’cause I know in my soul, that it’s wrong

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    Kickin’ each other around
    Eight times a week, we play ’hide an’ cheat’
    ’til we’ve run that game in the ground

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    We know that cheatin’ is wrong
    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    And we’ve been in the closet too long

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    Worn out an’ comin’ unglued
    Both wearin’ rings, feelin’ ashamed
    Tryin’ to run from the truth

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    And nothin’ can tear us apart
    Living the lie and lord knows we’ve tried
    To stop walking on each other’s heart

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    We know that cheatin’ is wrong
    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    And we’ve been in the closet too long

    We’re just a pair of old sneakers
    And we’ve been in the closet too long

    Hoy Mi Deber
    Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
    Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



    Hoy mi deber era
    cantarle a la patria
    alzar la bandera
    sumarme a la plaza

    Hoy era un momento
    más bien optimista
    un renacimiento
    un sol de conquista

    Pero tú me faltas
    hace tantos días
    que quiero y no puedo
    tener alegrías

    Pienso en tu cabello
    que estalla en mi almohada
    y estoy que no puedo
    dar otra batalla

    Hoy yo que tenía
    que cantar a coro
    me escondo del día
    susurro estoy solo

    Qué hago tan lejos
    dándole motivos
    a esta jugarreta
    cruel de los sentidos

    Tu boca pequeña
    dentro de mi beso
    conquista se adueña
    no toca receso

    Tu cuerpo y mi cuerpo
    cantando sudores
    sonidos posesos
    febriles temblores

    Hoy mi deber era
    cantarle a la patria
    alzar la bandera
    sumarme a la plaza

    Y creo que acaso
    al fin lo he logrado
    soñando tu abrazo
    volando a tu lado

    A Painter Passing Through
    Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
    Performer(s): Gordon Lightfoot



    Once upon a time I was on my own
    Once upon a time like you've never known
    Once upon a time I would be impressed
    Once upon a time my life would be obsessed
    Once upon a time, once upon a day when
    I was in my prime, once along the way
    If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
    For I am just a painter passing through in history

    Yesterday is gone, yesterday's alright
    Yesterday belongs in my dreams at night
    Yesterday is swell, yesterday is great
    Yesterday is strong, remembering can wait
    Once upon a time, once upon a day when
    I was in my prime, once along the way

    If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around
    For I am just a painter passing through the underground

    I was in my stride, always at my game
    Here comes mister cool, along the walk of fame
    I was in demand, always in control
    The world was in my hands, my touch had turn to gold
    Once upon a time, I was in a daze when
    I was in my prime, once along the way

    If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
    For I am just a painter passing through in history

    Now that I am old, let me rest a spell
    All that I am told, I can never tell
    Never in my life, never will it pass
    I am still alone, remembering at last
    Once upon a time, once upon a day when
    I was in my prime, once along the way

    If you want to know an answer I can't turn your life around
    For I am just a painter passing through the underground

    If you want to know my secret don't come runnin' after me
    For I am just a painter passing through in history

    Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
    Performer(s): Raphael



    Si tú me tienes que decir
    Que ya no piensas tanto en mí
    Si tú me quieres explicar
    Que ya lo nuestro no es igual
    Dímelo, dímelo hoy mejor que mañana
    Cada minuto que pasa
    Más fuerte y más grande
    Es mi amor hacia ti
    Por eso es mejor que me digas
    Adiós cuanto antes y huyas de mí
    ¡Ay! dímelo
    Si estás cansada de mi amor
    Y ya no tienes ilusión
    Si tú prefieres terminar
    Por qué no dices la verdad
    Dímelo, dímelo hoy mejor que mañana

    Performer(s): Raphael



    Te equivocaste de puerta
    Aquí ya no vive aquel que recuerdas
    Te equivocaste sin duda
    El hombre que buscas dejó de existir
    Ya no has de hallarte en sus ojos
    Sus mismas pupilas hoy ven de otro modo
    El tiempo cambia el cabello
    La cara, los sueños, la sed y el sentir
    Te equivocaste de vida
    Ni yo me sentía lo muerto que estaba
    Hoy ya no sé si te amaba
    O fuimos fantasías de un cuento sin fin
    Si tú me miras ahora
    Soy otra persona y no estás en mi agenda
    Te equivocaste de puerta
    Lo siento no hay huella de tu amor en mí
    Estás buscando a otro
    A un hombre que murió
    Estás buscando a otro
    Al que una vez fui yo

    Composer(s): Prada; José Miguel Rámos; Vera Gallado
    Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



    Algo ha muerto en mi interior, la música se fue
    tus lágrimas, tu atardecer, me envuelven hoy
    Y encuentro grande la ciudad, vació el corazón
    donde el amor nació y murió... Dejándote
    Soledad, compañera de mi vida
    soledad, horizonte gris
    soledad, siempre fuiste mi destino
    soledad, déjame huir
    Dime porque, hoy has vuelto... Soledad
    Soledad, compañera de mi vida
    soledad, grande como el mar
    soledad, siempre fuiste mi destino
    soledad, déjame escapar
    Dime porque, has vuelto hoy
    dime porque, hoy has vuelto... Soledad

    A Number And A Name
    Composer(s): Steve Gillette - Tom Campbell
    First release by: Steve Gillette - 1967
    Covered by multiple other artists



    How many times have I read farewell lines
    In the things that you never seemed to say
    How many times have I read those last lines
    And wondered why it ended this way

    Words of goodbye and all those loving lines
    I must have been blind
    And it seems to me a shame
    That the number and the name
    Both have changed with the passing of time

    How you would write about the bright lights
    And your words always clouded up my eyes
    How you would write about the bright lights
    It's a wonder that I never realized
    Our race was run now another's just begun
    I must have been blind
    And it seems to me a shame
    That the number and the name
    Both have changed with the passing of time

    When your letters stopped the tears that I fought
    How they came in the flood of memories
    When your letters stopped the tears that I fought
    How they ran like the rivers to the seas
    Each sunny day you slip further away
    I must have been blind
    And it seems to me a shame
    That the number and the name
    Both have changed with the passing of time

    Hoy Es El Dia
    Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
    Performer(s): Raphael



    Hoy es el dia, llego por fin
    Todas mis dudas y demonios tendran fin
    Y el gran esfuerzo que sufri siempre
    Tendra compensacion, se bien a donde voy

    Es el momento, no hay tal vez
    Y todo el mundo va a rendirse a mis pies
    Hoy es el dia, gano mi azar
    Los sueños del ayer se que se cumpliran
    Hoy es el dia, sera puntual
    Todos los gritos, ritos y mitos son igual
    Mi dia es, brillara mas que el sol
    Pues las quimeras mias son

    Se me nego hasta el pan y la sal
    Ahora voy a estar muy por encima
    Del bien y del mal
    Hoy es el dia, no habra un error
    Toda mi vida, ingenuino triunfador
    No dudare, sabran quien soy
    Hoy es el dia, es el gran dia
    De ser dios

    Hoy es el dia, tendre valor
    Es hoy o nunca
    El viento sopla a mi favor
    Un dia asi no dira dios
    Hoy es el dia
    No es cualquier dia
    Es el gran dia de ser dios

    Composer(s): Raimundo Fagner - Ricardo Bezerra
    Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



    Eh, satisfeito da nova conquista
    Eh, muito alegre de tanto te amar
    Você só pensando na vida e nos saltos
    Você só olhando no jeito meus passos
    Como que me perguntasse
    O que mais eu queria
    Porque tudo acabava em silêncio
    Eu te juro
    Mas meu cigarro iluminava
    Tua face quase triste de amar

    Amei, eu amei, mas faz de conta
    Que a vida é isto mesmo
    Porque tudo acabava em silêncio
    Eu te juro
    Eu passei a vida esperando
    E sem ela minha vida ia passar

    Mas sei que a gente expande um tempo inútil
    E a sorte
    Quando esta chega não há quem segure
    Então vou fazer-te uma promessa
    Outro dia a gente vai se encontrar

    Performer(s): Schoolhouse Rock



    Well every person you can know
    And every place that you can go
    And any thing that you can show
    You know they're nouns
    A noun's a special kind of word
    It's any name you ever heard
    I find it quite interesting
    A noun is a person place or thing
    Oh I took a train took a train to another state
    The flora and the fauna that I saw were really great
    When I saw some bandits chasing the train
    I was wishing I was back home again
    I took a train took a train to another state

    Well every person you can know
    Like a bandit or an engineer
    And every place that you can go
    Like a state or a home
    And any thing that you can show
    Like animals and plants or a train
    You know they're nouns
    You know they're nouns

    Oh, Mrs. Jones is a lady on Hudson Street
    She sent her dog to bark at my brother and me
    We gave her dog a big fat bone
    And now he barks at Mrs. Jones
    She's a lady who lives on Hudson Street

    Well every person you can know
    Mrs. Jones, a lady or a brother
    And every place that you can go
    Like a street or a corner
    And anything that you can show
    Like a dog or a bone
    You know they're nouns
    You know they're nouns

    I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty
    My best friend was waiting there for me
    (He took an early ferry)
    We went for a walk on the island you know
    And in the middle of summer
    It started to snow
    I took a ferry to the Statue of Liberty

    Well every person you can know
    Like a friend or the captain of a ship
    And every place that you can go
    An island or a sea
    And anything that you can show
    Like a statue, a ferry or snow
    You know they're nouns
    You know they're nouns

    Oh I put a dime in the drugstore record machine

    Oldie-goldies started playing if you know what I mean
    I heard Chubby Checker
    he was doing the twist
    And the Beatles and the Monkees it goes like this
    I put a dime in the drugstore record machine

    Well every person you can know
    The Beatles and the Monkees, Chubby Checker
    And every place that you can go
    Like a neighborhood or a store
    And anything that you can show
    Like a dime or a record machine
    You know they're nouns

    A noun's a special kind of word
    It's any name you ever heard
    I find it quite interesting
    A noun's a person, place or thing
    A noun is a person, place or thing

    and various other artists



    I've had nothing but sorrow
    Since you said we were through
    There's no hope for tomorrow
    How's the world treating you?

    Every sweet thing that mattered
    Has been broken in two
    All my dreams have been shattered
    How's the world treating you?

    Got no plans for next Sunday
    Got no plans for today
    Every day is blue Monday
    Every day you're away

    Though our pathways have parted
    To your memory I'm true
    Guess I'll stay broken-hearted
    How's the world treating you ?

    Are you turning and yearning
    Do you ever get through
    Do you think of returning
    How's the world treating you ?

    Every sweet thing that mattered
    How's the world treating you?
    And I’m asking you darling
    How's the world treating you?

    A Noiva Da Cidade
    Composer(s): Chico Buarque - Francis Hime
    Performer(s): Chico Buarque
    and multiple other artists



    ``Tutu-Marambá não venha mais cá
    Que a mãe da criança te manda matar''
    ``Tutu-Marambá não venha mais cá
    Que a mãe da criança te manda matar''

    Ai, como essa moça é descuidada
    Com a janela escancarada
    Quer dormir impunemente
    Ou será que a moça lá no alto
    Não escuta o sobressalto
    Do coração da gente

    Ai, quanto descuido o dessa moça
    Que papai tá lá na roça
    E mamãe foi passear
    E todo marmanjo da cidade
    Quer entrar
    Nos versos da cantiga de ninar
    Pra ser um Tutu-Marambá

    Ai, como essa moça é distraída
    Sabe lá se está vestida
    Ou se dorme transparente
    Ela sabe muito bem que quando adormece
    Está roubando
    O sono de outra gente

    Ai, quanta maldade a dessa moça
    E, que aqui ninguém nos ouça
    Ela sabe enfeitiçar
    Pois todo malandro da cidade
    Quer entrar
    Nos sonhos que ela gosta de sonhar
    E ser um Tutu-Marambá

    ``Boi, boi, boi, boi da cara preta
    Pega essa menina que tem medo de careta''

    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la

    Ships are docking, planes are landing
    A never ending supply
    No more nargo, no more gangster
    Conservatives can cry

    I took the law and threw it away
    Cause there's nothing wrong it's just for play
    Theres no law, no law anymore
    I want to steal from the rich and give to the poor

    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la

    It was glowing, glowing, glowing
    Glowing in the dark
    It was sparkling, sparkling
    Sparkling, sparking in the night

    I took the law...

    Winter turns to summer
    Sadness turns to fun
    Keep the faith, baby
    You broke the rules and won

    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la

    Keep it glowing, glowing,glowing
    I'm not hurting anyone
    Keep it glowing, smoking, glowing
    I'm howling at the moon

    I took the law...

    Oh baby, oh baby
    Oh baby, oh baby

    I took the law and threw it away
    Cause there's nothing wrong it's just for play

    I'm smoking, baby
    I'm smoking, oh baby

    Theres no law, no law anymore
    I want to steal from the rich and give to the poor

    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la
    Sha-la-la-la, sha-la-la-la-la-la

    A Nightingale Sang In Berkeley Square
    Composer(s): Holt Marvell - Manning Sherwin
    First performance/First recording by: Judy Campbell/Ray Noble and His Orch. - 1940
    Covered by multiple other artists



    That certain night
    The night we met
    There was magic abroad in the air
    There were angels dining at the Ritz
    And a nightingale sang in Berkeley square

    I may be right I may be wrong
    But I'm perfectly willing to swear
    That when you turned and smiled at me
    A nightingale sang in Berkeley square

    The moon that lingered over London town
    Poor puzzled moon he wore a frown
    How could he know we two were so in love
    The whole damned world seemed upside down

    The streets of town were paved with stars
    It was such a romantic affair
    And as we kissed and said goodnight
    A nightingale sang in Berekeley square

    How strange it was
    How sweet and strange
    There was never a dream to compare
    To those hazy crazy nights we met
    And a nightingale sang in Berkeley square

    Ah this heart of mine
    Loud and fast
    Like a merry-go-round in a fair
    We would dance cheek to cheek
    And a nightingale sang in Berkeley square

    The dawn came stealing up
    All gold and blue
    To interrupt our rendez-vous
    I still remember how you smiled and said
    Was that a dream or was it true?

    Our homeward step was just as light
    As the dancing feet of astaire
    And like an echo far away
    And a nightingale sang in Berkeley square
    And a nightingale sang in Berkeley square

    That night in Berkeley square

    However Much I Booze
    Composer(s): Pete Townshend
    Performer(s): The Who



    I see myself on T.V., I'm a faker, a paper clown
    It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie I just bring them down
    I claim proneness to exaggeration
    But the truth lies in my frustration
    The children of the night, they all pass me by
    Have to drench myself in brandy
    In sleep I'll hide
    But however much I booze
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out
    I don't care what you say, boy
    There ain't no way out

    I lose so many nights of sleep worrying about my responsibilities
    Are the problems that screw me up really down to him or me
    My ego will just confuse me
    Some day it's going to up and use me
    Dish me out another tailor-made compliment
    Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent
    And however much I squirm
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out
    I don't care what you say, boy
    There ain't no way out

    Won't somebody tell me how to get out of this place?!

    Then the night comes down like a cell door closing
    Suddenly I realize that I'm right now, I'm on the scene
    While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head a-floating
    Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me
    And on at me, and I don't care what you say
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out

    Now the walls are all clawed and scratched
    Like by some soul insane
    In the morning I humbly detach myself
    I take no blame
    I just can't face my failure
    I'm nothing but a well fucked sailor
    You at home can easily decide what's right
    By glancing very briefly at the songs I write
    But it don't help me that you know
    This ain't no way out
    Won't somebody tell me?
    I don't care what you say, boy
    There ain't no way out

    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out

    Give me the key, lock it away

    There ain't
    There ain't
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out
    There ain't no way out

    A Night To Remember
    Composer(s): Nidra Beard - Dana Meyers - Charmaine Elaine Sylvers
    Performer(s): Shalamar



    When you love someone it’s natural, not demanding
    And that’s one thing I’m proud to say I found in you
    I’m so glad we reached an understanding
    Now I know my heart is safe with you, hoo...
    So now my love to you, baby, I surrender

    Get ready tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (Oh, baby) tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Celebrations and my heart could stay united
    And there’s nothing in this world to come between me and you
    We’re together and it keeps me so excited
    To think of what the power of love can do, ooh...
    And I’m filled with a love that’s, oh, so tender

    Get ready (Baby) tonight (Girl)
    I’m gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (get ready) tonight
    I’m gonna make this a night to remember

    Make this a night to remember

    Get ready tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (Get ready) tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Get ready (Baby) tonight (Darlin’)
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (Darlin’) tonight (Baby)
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    This night you won’t forget
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    ‘Cause your love I won’t regret
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Get ready (Baby) tonight (Darlin’)
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (It won’t be like the past) tonight (I will make it last)
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Tonight
    Make this a night to remember
    Tonight
    Make this a night to remember

    Let’s make a toast to those who helped make this occasion
    They turn their back on love and that’s what drove you straight to me
    Now to you I make a lasting dedication
    I’ll show you all that love and life can be, hoo...
    And each day that I live I will deliver

    Get ready (This night you won’t forget) tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (‘Cause your love I won’t regret) tonight
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Get ready (Baby) tonight (Darlin’)
    Gonna make this a night to remember
    Get ready (It won’t be like the past) tonight (I will make it last)
    Gonna make this a night to remember

    Get ready tonight

    How'd We Ever Get This Way
    Composer(s): Jeff Barry; Andy Kim
    Performer(s): Andy Kim



    Look at you baby look at me
    So in love we used to be
    But now it's just a memory
    Baby, how'd we ever get this way
    Tell me baby, how'd we ever get this way

    Well I recall when things were fine
    And every day the sun would shine
    When I was yours and you were mine
    Baby, how'd we ever get this way
    Tell me baby, how'd we ever get this way

    Remember how it used to was
    Before the rovin eye of love
    Why does it do the way it does
    Baby, how'd we ever get this way
    Tell me baby, how'd we ever get this way

    Time and time and time again
    I wonder why it all began
    Tell me how's it gonna end
    Baby, how'd we ever get this way
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la

    Baby, how'd we ever get
    Baby, how'd we ever get
    Baby, how'd we ever get this way
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la
    Ba-la, la, la, la, la, la
