    Acapulco Gold
    Composer(s): T. Randazzo - V. Picke
    Performer(s): Mason & Dixon



    Nanana, nanana, na, we're heading for the road
    Following the sun to Mexico
    Nanana, nanana, na, gotta leave this New York cold
    Check out without control, look for Acapulco gold

    Everybody tells me the sun is shining there
    Lots of groovy people everywhere
    We don't need much money, enough to pay the fare
    I could tie my woman, living without a care
    I'm singing

    Nanana, nanana, na, we're heading for the road
    Following the sun to Mexico
    Nanana, nanana, na, gotta leave this New York cold
    Check out without control, look for Acapulco gold

    Women in the market, baskets on their head
    Everything you need to feel alright
    Pretty senoritas strolling in the slare
    Marihage playing, singing without a care
    I hear them

    Nanana, nanana, na, we're heading for the road
    Following the sun to Mexico
    Nanana, nanana, na, gotta leave this New York cold
    Check out without control, look for Acapulco gold

    Nanana, nanana, na, we're heading for the road
    Following the sun to Mexico
    Nanana, nanana, na, gotta leave this New York cold
    Check out without control, look for Acapulco gold

    Nanana, nanana, na, we're heading for the road
    Following the sun to Mexico
    Nanana, nanana, na, gotta leave this New York cold
    Check out without control, look for Acapulco gold

    Wear My Ring Around Your Neck
    Composer(s): Bert Carroll; Russell Moody
    Performer(s): Elvis Presley;
    and various other artists



    Won't you wear my ring up around your neck
    To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
    Let them see your love for me
    And let them see by the ring around your neck

    Won't you wear my ring up around your neck
    To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
    Let them know I love you so
    And let them know by the ring around your neck

    They say that going steady is not the proper thing
    They say that we're too young to know the meaning of a ring
    I only know I love you and that you love me too
    So, darling, please do what I ask of you

    Won't you wear my ring around your neck
    To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
    Let them see your love for me
    And let them see by the ring around your neck

    Won't you wear my ring around your neck
    To tell the world I'm yours, by heck
    Let them know I love you so
    And let them know by the ring around your neck

    Acapulco
    Performer(s): Luis Mariano



    Je me souviendrai d'Acapulco
    Et j'entendrai comme un écho
    Cette musique
    Et sous d'autres cieux
    Loin du paradis que l'on trouve ici
    Je regretterai la volupté
    L'enchantement des nuits d'été
    Du pacifique
    Tous les jours heureux
    Dont le souvenir
    Ne saurait mourir

    Quand la chanson du vent
    Se mêle doucement
    Au bruit de l'océan
    De ces deux mélodies
    Naît une symphonie
    Que jamais on oublie

    Je me souviendrai d'Acapulco
    Et quand voguera mon bateau
    Loin du Mexique
    Je n'aurai bientôt
    Plus qu'un seul désir
    C'est d'y revenir

    Pays, pays d'amour
    Depuis le premier jour
    J'ai retrouvé par toi
    Le bonheur et la joie

    Je me souviendrai d'Acapulco
    Et j'entendrai comme un écho
    Cette musique
    Et sous d'autres cieux
    Loin du paradis que l'on trouve ici
    Je regretterai la volupté
    L'enchantement des nuits d'été
    Du pacifique
    Tous les jours heureux
    Dont le souvenir
    Ne saurait mourir

    Sous le soleil couchant
    C'est un ravissement
    C'est l'heure des amants
    Les fleurs ont des couleurs
    Les femmes une fraîcheur
    Qu'elles n'ont pas ailleurs

    Je me souviendrai d'Acapulco
    Et quand voguera mon bateau
    Loin du Mexique
    Je n'aurai bientôt
    Plus qu'un seul désir
    C'est d'y revenir

    We, Your Dearest Friends
    Composer(s): Carly Simon
    Performer(s): Carly Simon



    We, your dearest friends
    Are having dinner without you
    We're witty and we use it to be vicious
    In just another minute
    We'll be laughing about you
    To the untrained eye
    It wouldn't look suspicious

    We, your dearest friends
    Don't really care if you have needs
    Your hopes and dreams
    Are trivial by our standards
    We make fun of how you sing
    And then we imitate your speech
    And the stupid things
    You say we like to slander

    But we won't reel you out too far
    'Cause after all, we need you for
    Our ongoing quest

    We've bonded here in faithlessness
    To undermine your happiness
    Toying with your paranoia
    Everything you do annoys us
    It annoys us

    We remember how
    You bought us all those gifts
    You liked to make us think
    You were so generous
    Be careful in the future
    Of everything you say and do
    `Cause it can and will be used
    Against you by us

    We your dearest friends
    Judge you "guilty"
    Here and now
    Of thinking you're a star
    When it's all over
    Nobody wants you
    And we the least of all
    It's been a long time since
    You had those famous lovers

    But we won't reel you out too far
    `Cause after all, we need you for
    Our ongoing quest

    We've bonded here
    In faithlessness
    To undermine your happiness
    Toying with your paranoia
    Everything you do annoys us
    (it annoys the hell out of us)

    It's not the straw
    No, it's the final straw you'll say
    Finally you've grown a sturdy backbone
    There'll be no invitation to
    Your rocky coast this year
    Your queenly voice will
    Ice us down the telephone

    You'll never guess who's joining us
    For brandy later on
    That's right, it's your bête noir from hell
    That's who
    Are you worried we might spill the beans
    Are you worried we might tell
    About your little visit to the bin when
    You were cuckoo?

    But we won't reel you out too far
    `Cause after all, we need you for
    Our ongoing quest

    We've bonded here in faithlessness
    To undermine your happiness
    Toying with your paranoia
    Everything you do annoys us
    It annoys us

    Toying with your paranoia

    You have an unforgiveable personality
    Unforgettable, yes
    We were so happy once in the Garden of
    The Finzi-Continis
    Oh, yes we were
    Never more, never more
    Here comes the waiter
    We'll just put it on your house charge
    You'll never know the difference
    Never notice

    Acalanto Para Um Punhal
    Composer(s): Robertinho de Recife - Herman Torres - Fausto Nilo
    Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner



    Dorme bandoleiro
    Dorme punhal, coração
    Dos irmãos dos cavalos
    Ponta de sal na raiz dos gemidos

    Arma branca das trevas
    Invejará o ardor
    Do teu aço na flor
    Que esconde a beleza em profundas crateras

    Sangue na prata da lua
    Fere a paixão no capim
    Dorme em leito carmim

    Clarão, violão
    Mesmo sol de Sevilha

    Acordarás com meu grito
    Rasga o silêncio do amor
    Mancha o leito de dor
    Punhal, coração
    Amanhece a campina

    We Work The Black Seam
    Composer(s): Sting
    Performer(s): Sting; Pat Kilbride



    This place has changed for good
    Your economic theory said it would
    It's hard for us to understand
    We can't give up our jobs the way we should
    Our blood has stained the coal
    We tunneled deep inside the nation's soul
    We matter more than pounds and pence
    Your economic theory makes no sense

    One day in a nuclear age
    They may understand our rage
    They build machines that they can't control
    And bury the waste in a great big hole
    Power was to become cheap and clean
    Grimy faces were never seen
    But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
    We work the black seam together

    The seam lies underground
    Three million years of pressure packed it down
    We walk through ancient forest lands
    And light a thousand cities with our hands
    Your dark satanic mills
    Have made redundant all our mining skills
    You can't exchange a six inch band
    For all the poisoned streams in Cumberland

    One day in a nuclear age
    They may understand our rage
    They build machines that they can't control
    And bury the waste in a great big hole
    Power was to become cheap and clean
    Grimy faces were never seen
    But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
    We work the black seam together

    Our conscious lives run deep
    You cling onto your mountain while we sleep
    This way of life is part of me
    The is no price so only let me be
    And should the children weep
    The turning world will sing their souls to sleep
    When you have sunk without a trace
    The universe will suck me into place

    One day in a nuclear age
    They may understand our rage
    They build machines that they can't control
    And bury the waste in a great big hole
    Power was to become cheap and clean
    Grimy faces were never seen
    But deadly for twelve thousand years is carbon fourteen
    We work the black seam together

    We Won't Live In A Castle
    Composer(s): Bob Merrill
    Performer(s): Donald Peers; Jimmy Young



    We won't live in a castle
    But love will light every room
    For love will shine in your eyes and mine
    Bright as the golden moon

    Laugh with me in the sunlight
    Weep with me in the rain
    Just want me dear, and you'll have me near
    You've only to call my name

    Every dream won't come true
    We won't care you'll have me, I'll have you

    Though we won't live in a castle
    Love will light every room
    Our love will be till eternity
    Bright as the golden moon

    Every dream won't come true
    But you'll have me, I'll have you

    Though we won't live in a castle
    Love will light every room
    Our love will be till eternity
    Bright as the golden moon

    Covered by multiple other artists



    É tão cedo, meu irmão
    Abre os olhos, dorme não
    Espalha os meus soldados
    Estraga os meus brinquedos
    Pode me odiar
    Nunca mais olhar pra mim
    Mas não faz
    Não faz mais
    Assim

    Tão cedo, meu irmão
    Põe a mão na minha mão
    Pode fechar meus olhos
    Alisa os meus cabelos
    E a quem perguntar
    Deus, que foi que aconteceu
    Vou jurar que o teu sangue
    É meu
    Eu vou rasgar
    Meu coração
    Pra costurar o teu
    Vou te soprar
    Esta canção
    O meu irmão
    Morreu

    Performer(s): Vicente Fernández & Alejandro Fernández



    Por presumir a mis amigos les conte
    que en el amor ninguna pena me aniquila
    que pa' probarles de tus besos me olvide
    y me bastaron unos tragos de tequila

    Les platique que me encontre con otro amor
    y que en sus brazos fui dejando de quererte
    que te aborrezco desde el dia de tu traicion
    y que hay momentos que he deseado hasta tu muerte

    Aca entre nos
    quiero que sepas la verdad
    no te he dejado de adorar
    alla en mi triste soledad
    me han dado ganas de gritar
    salir corriendo y preguntar
    que es lo que ha sido de tu vida

    Aca entre nos
    siempre te voy a recordar
    y hoy que a mi lado ya no estas
    no queda mas que confesar
    que ya no puedo soportar
    que estoy odiando sin odiar
    porque respiro por la herida

    Aca entre nos....

    We Will Make Love
    Composer(s): Ronald Hulme
    Performer(s): Russ Hamilton



    (Oh yes we will make love)

    When the moon takes the place
    of the sun in the sky
    I'll call for my girlie
    We'll go walkin' by
    To a place no one knows
    That's how love goes
    Now we are alone
    We will make love
    Oh yes, we will make love

    I wish we could wed
    But we are too young
    But one day I know
    Wedding bells will be rung
    For you and for me
    We'll promise to be
    So faithful and true
    I love you
    Oh yes, I love you

    Now it's getting late
    Now we must part
    But before I go
    I will leave you my heart
    So don't shed a tear
    I'll always be near
    I'll hold you so tight
    And I'll kiss you goodnight
    Oh yes, I'll kiss you goodnight

    When I go away
    Don't ever let your heart go astray
    `cos my love so true
    Is only for you
    So remember you're mine
    You're mine all the time

    When the sun takes the place
    Of the moon in the sky
    We'll go on a journey
    You and I
    To a far distant land
    Where our dreams were planned
    In the clouds up above
    We will make love
    Oh yes, we will make love
    Oh yes, we will make love

    Abuglubu Abugluba
    Composer(s): Carlos Argentino - G. Coulonges - Jean Greblin
    Performer(s): André Bourvil & Pierrette Bruno



    Abuglubu, abugluba
    il lui a dit Abuglubu, abugluba
    il savait c'qu'il voulait
    Abuglubu, abugluba
    elle répondit ce sera comme tu voudras
    Elle était arrangeante

    Tous les cubains vous raccont'ront cette légende
    abuglubu, c'est un vieux mot au sens caché
    abugluba c'est la réponse à c'qu'il demande
    imaginez c'qu'un amoureux peut demander
    Pour nous renseigner
    il faudrait trouver
    une jeune cubaine qui voudrait nous l'expliquer
    Car tous les cubains
    connaissent très bien
    ce merveilleux refrain
    du bon fiancé moyen

    Abuglubu, abugluba
    cela veut dire je t'aimerai, tu m'aimeras
    ah bon!
    Abuglubu, abugluba
    Cette nuit aussi, je t'attendrai, tu m'attendras
    Ça dit tout ça?
    Ça dit encore si tu le veux tu s'ras ma femme
    car ces deux mots nous chantent un amour éternel
    Abuglubu c'est l'Roméo de la Havane
    Abugluba c'est sa Juliette au cœur de miel
    Et tous les cubains
    quand ils s'aiment bien
    adorent se donner
    ces deux noms prédestinés
    C'est pour ça qu'le soir
    quand ils vont danser
    sur toutes les musiques
    on les entend s'appeler

    Abuglubu, abugluba
    je t'aimerai, je t'aimerai tu m'aimeras
    Abuglubu, abugluba
    je t'aimerai, je cèderai, on s'aimera
    ils ont d'la conversation
    Abuglubu, abugluba
    je t'aimerai, t'adorerai, on s'mari'ra
    (où est-ce qu'ils vont chercher tout ça?)
    et rien jamais ne sépar'ra
    ne sépar'ra Abuglubu, d'Abugluba
    Dis tu l'as vu? quoi? mon abuglubu
    mais j'croyais qu'c'était un abugluba
    C'est la même chose! Ah bon!
    Alors au revoir!
    Non pas au revoir, Abuglubu!
    Ah oui, c'est ça abugluba!

    We Were All Uprooted
    Performer(s): Vangelis



    We were all uprooted
    The earth was stolen from beneath our feet
    We became a Diaspora
    An unnamed nation of bastards
    We channeled our roots to the pulse of light
    deep within the galaxies of our mind
    Our breath was the sky
    Our dreams were water
    We claimed the wilderness
    We recognized each other

    Absolution Blues
    Composer(s): David Coverdale - Jimmy Page
    Performer(s): Jimmy Page



    Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin
    An' still I lust for sweet young things
    On the day that I was born, bells rang out in Babylon
    Still I can't tell right from wrong, no matter what the Good Book says

    Now I can see the sun is shining
    But, I can feel the rain
    Falling down to wash my tears away
    Wash my tears away

    Holy Mother, save your tears, you've cried for me a thousand years
    But, I was blind to all your fears
    Now I can't stop the tears from falling down
    Come the dawn of judgement day
    I'll get down on my knees and pray
    St. Peter don't you, don't you send me away

    Now I can see the sun is shining
    But, I can feel the rain
    Falling down to wash my tears away

    Bless me, Father, I have sinned, I've broken hearts, got drunk on gin
    An' still I lust for everything, every little thing
    Come the dawn of judgement day, I'll get down on my knees and pray
    The Good Lord don't send me away, I'll never ever go

    Now I can see the sun is shining
    But, I can feel the rain
    Falling down to wash my tears away

    Wash my tears away, I'll get down on my knees
    Don't send me away, don't you send me away, no, no, no

    Hello Central, Give Me France
    (aka We Want Our Daddy Dear, Back Home)
    Composer(s): James M. Reilly; Harry De Costa



    A little girl woke when the dawn was near
    And the nurse said "See your new brother," dear
    She went to her mother with wondring stare
    And their thoughts were of Dad who's "over there"
    The little girl crept down the stairs all alone
    And this love call she sent through the telephone

    The little girl smiled, then the clock struck one
    As the Central called White House, Washington
    The President heard and he understood
    Like the father of this great country should
    He cabled in code every word Central said
    In the trenches in France the proud Daddy read

    Hello, Central, give me France
    I want to talk to Daddy dear
    Because I'd like to tell him while I got the chance
    The stork brought a brand new baby here
    Won't you say that its "me"
    And he'll answer you'll see
    So hurry, please, and get him on the phone
    Hello, Central, give me France
    'Cause we want our Daddy dear back home

    Absolutely Sweet Marie
    ((Swedish Version: Utan Tvekan Min Marie (by Mikael Wiehe & Ebba Forsberg) - 2007))
    Composer(s): Bob Dylan
    First release by: Bob Dylan - 1966
    Covered by multiple other artists



    Well, your railroad gate, you know I just can't jump it
    Sometimes it gets so hard, you see
    I'm just sitting here beating on my trumpet
    With all these promises you left for me
    But where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

    Well, I waited for you when I was half sick
    Yes, I waited for you when you hated me
    Well, I waited for you inside of the frozen traffic
    When you knew I had some other place to be
    Now, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

    Well, anybody can be just like me, obviously
    But then, now again, not too many can be like you, fortunately

    Well, six white horses that you did promise
    Were fin'lly delivered down to the penitentiary
    But to live outside the law, you must be honest
    I know you always say that you agree
    But where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

    Well, I don't know how it happened
    But the river-boat captain, he knows my fate
    But ev'rybody else, even yourself
    They're just gonna have to wait

    Well, I got the fever down in my pockets
    The Persian drunkard, he follows me
    Yes, I can take him to your house but I can't unlock it
    You see, you forgot to leave me with the key
    Oh, where are you tonight, sweet Marie?

    Now, I been in jail when all my mail showed
    That a man can't give his address out to bad company
    And now I stand here lookin' at your yellow railroad
    In the ruins of your balcony
    Wond'ring where you are tonight, sweet Marie

    Utan Tvekan Min Marie
    ((Adapted from: Absolutely Sweet Marie (by Bob Dylan) - 1966))
    Composer(s): Bob Dylan - Mikael Wiehe
    Performer(s): Mikael Wiehe & Ebba Forsberg - 2007



    Ah, din pansardörr, jag orkar inte med den
    Ibland så får jag bara kris
    Så jag sitter här och fingrar lite på trumpeten
    och undrar om du tänker komma hit
    Var är du ikväll, min Marie

    Jag vänta’ på dej när jag var trött och sliten
    Jag vänta’ på dej när du var kall som is
    Jag vänta’ på dej mitt i eftermiddagstrafiken
    när jag varken hade pengar eller tid
    Så var är du ikväll, min Marie

    Dom andra du har
    är dubbelt så bra
    som jag
    uppenbart
    Men sen är del klart
    att inte många kan va
    som du
    Och de’e ju tur

    Dom vita varor, du hade lånat
    har äntligen kommit tillbaka hit till vårt menageri
    Ska man va laglös får man hålla det man lovar
    och ingen var så lovande som vi
    Så var är du ikväll, min Marie

    De’e svårt att förstå men
    kaptenen på pråmen
    han känner mej
    Men resten av stan får vänta ett tag
    Det gäller också dej

    Jag har fått feber i hela kroppen
    Nåt persiskt fyllo tar min tid
    Jag kan ta honom till din port men inte låsa upp den
    Du vet, du gav mej aldrig nycklar dit
    Var är du ikväll, min Marie

    Jag fick ditt brev när jag satt inne
    och förstod att det inte finns nån gräns för mänskligt hyckleri
    Och nu står jag vid ditt hus med mina minnen
    och tycker mest det liknar en ruin
    Var är du ikväll, min Marie

    We Used To Know
    Composer(s): Ian Anderson
    Performer(s): Jethro Tull



    Whenever I get to feel this way
    try to find new words to say
    I think about the bad old days
    we used to know

    Nights of winter turn me cold
    fears of dying, getting old
    We ran the race and the race was won
    by running slowly

    Could be soon we'll cease to sound
    slowly upstairs, faster down
    Then to revisit stony grounds
    we used to know

    Remembering mornings, shillings spent
    made no sense to leave the bed
    The bad old days they came and went
    giving way to fruitful years

    Saving up the birds in hand
    while in the bush the others land
    Take what we can before the man
    says it's time to go

    Each to his own way I'll go mine
    Best of luck in what you find
    But for your own sake remember times
    we used to know
