Let’s Keep It That Way
Composer(s): Desmond O'Connor - J. Denby-Watson
Performer(s): Lou Praeger & His Orch.; Paul Rich



Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way

We stood together
Through stormy weather
And every heart was torn
The guns were flashing
The world was crashing
But out of the darkness a new world was born

The city lights are shining
The children laugh and play
The countryside is peaceful
Let’s keep it that way

Inside a million windows
They put a sign to say
A welcome home to someone
Let’s keep it that way

No more must mothers sigh
Nor sweethearts walk alone
Let’s put their happiness
Above the things we own

Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way

Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way

Broadway Hotel
Composer(s): Al Stewart
Performer(s): Al Stewart



You told the man in the Broadway Hotel
Nothing was stranger than being yourself
And he replied, with a tear in his eye
Love was a rollaway
Just a cajole away
Mist on a summer's day
Nothing was clear
Love was a smile away
Just a defile away
I sought it every way
No-one came near

You asked the man for a room with a view
Nothing was said as he stared at his shoe
Then he replied as he gave you the key
Love was a rollaway
Just an unfold away
That's all there is to say
No-one came near

Alone in your room you hide
As the night rolls by
In the street outside
And you feel over the words he said
Till they turn to rain all around your head

You're seeking a hideaway
Where the light of day
Doesn't touch your face
And a door-sign keeps the world away
Behind the shades
Of your silent day

You made your home in the Broadway Hotel
Room service came at the push of a bell
And the man said as he put down the tray
Love was a stealaway
Just a reveal away
I tried to find a way
Nothing was clear
Then as he turned away
You asked the man to stay
He was there all the day
No-one came near

Broadway Baby
Composer(s): Stephen Sondheim



I'm just a Broadway Baby
Walking off my tired feet
Pounding Forty Second Street 
To be in a show
Broadway Baby
Learning how to sing and dance
Waiting for that one big chance 
To be in a show

Gee, I'd like to be on some marquee
All twinkling lights
A spark to pierce the dark
From Batt'ry Park to Washington Heights
Some day maybe
All my dreams will be repaid

I can get to strut my stuff
Working for a nice man 
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman 
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid 
To be in a show

Say, Mister producer
Some girls get the breaks
Just give me my cue, sir 
I've got what it takes
Say, Mister Producer
I'm talkin' to you, sir
I don't need a lot
Only what I got
Plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow spot!

I'm a Broadway Baby
Slaving at the five and ten
Dreaming of the great day 
When I'll be in a show
Broadway Baby
Making rounds all afternoon
Eating at a greasy spoon 
To save on my dough

At my tiny flat there's just my cat
A bed and a chair
Still I'll stick it till 
I'm on a bill all over Times Square
Some day maybe
If I stick it long enough

I can get to strut my stuff
Work-ing for a nice man 
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman 
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid 
To be in a show

Say, Mister producer
Some girls get the breaks
Just give me my cue, sir 
I've got what it takes
Say, Mister Producer
I'm talkin' to you, sir
I don't need a lot
Only what I got
Plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow spot!

Je staat op de eerste rij
Een vriendinnetje erbij
Altijd giechelen met twee

Je lacht uitdagend lang naar mij
Werkt je make-up nog wat bij
'k Schat je vijftien ongeveer

Meer dan leuk om te zien
Morgen huil je misschien
En dan ben ik je kwijt, voor altijd

Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Ik heb je Barbara genoemd
Je gaf me bloemen en een zoen
'k Zou die zo graag overdoen, oooh oooh
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)

Er zijn er zoveel zoals jij
Jonge meisjes vrank en vrij
Maar vanbinnen zo fragiel

Blote schouders, slanke nek
Je maakt de mannen stapelgek
Spelen met je sex-appeal

Maar de dag zal nog komen
Je ontwaakt uit je dromen
Want een meisje wordt zo gauw een vrouw

Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Ik heb je Barbara genoemd
Je gaf me bloemen en een zoen
'k Zou die zo graag overdoen, oooh oooh

Brivido Felino
Composer(s): Paolo Audino; Stefano Cenci
Performer(s): Mina & Adriano Celentano



Ormai avevo pensato
ho voglia solo io di te
invece sento il profumo
che hai messo su stasera per me

Provo a fare finta che
ti resisto un po'
ma in fondo poi perché
qui è già calda l'atmosfera
sto con te stasera ci sto

Con un brivido felino sento che mi vuoi
la luce del camino spande su di noi
hai la voce che ti frema stringi le mie mani
mi chiami, mi chiami piano lo so
ora che anche tu mi vuoi

Adesso mentre mi baci
capisco che mi piaci perché
(quel mistero dentro te)
è affascinante davvero
sei quella che speravo per me

Provo a fare finta che
ti resisto ma
il gioco mi delude
e già calda l'atmosfera
da te vorrei stasera di più

Con un brivido felino sento che mi vuoi
il fuoco del camino brucia insieme a noi
hai la voce che ti frema
stringi le mie mani mi ami, mi ami

Con un brivido felino ora che ti dai
ti sento travolgente vero come sei
ho l'impulso di fermarti ma tanto non potrei
se ti muovi, ti muovi, come tu sai
e ti sento che mi vuoi

Brivido felino, brivido felino, brivido felino
brivido felino

Con un brivido felino, io potrei morire da
adesso per come mi prendi e ti dai
e ti sento che mi vuoi

Let's Forget About The Stars
Composer(s): A.L. Owens - Christian Arnold - David Martin - Geoff Morrow
Performer(s): Elvis Presley



If you let the stars keep telling you
Who to love and not to love
You may never find contentment for your heart
You could go unloved forever and darling that means never
Surrender to love, let's forget about the stars
You say that stars have promised you true love ten thousand times
But here you are with a broken heart and mind
I can tell you want to love me from the beating in your heart
Surrender to love, let's forget about the stars
Let's forget about the stars, come follow me my dove
To a world just like the world that you've been dreaming of
Let's not wait too long for something might go wrong
Surrender to love, let's forget about the stars
Let's forget about the stars
Let's forget about the stars
Let's forget about the stars

Brivido Caldo
Composer(s): Piero Cassano; G. Golzi
Performer(s): Matia Bazar



Attraversata da un brivido caldo
per sogni folli più grandi di me
vivendo mille emozioni in contrasto
riparto da te

Tra mille note di vita raccolte
e gli orizzonti che non vedo più
confusamente tra immagini stanche
riaffiori anche tu

Sai ti penso tanto
lo sai ti sento tanto... e di più
ti ho aspettato tanto
sai ti penso tanto

Viaggia la mente nei ricordi miei
viaggia avvolta nella nostalgia di te
resta la dolce tenerezza che
lascia il tempo che si ferma in te

Occhi per orizzonti nei tramonti che vorrei
mani che stringono su cuori stanchi e fragili
tempo che non invecchia una fotografia
da allora resta il vuoto dentro

In quelle nebbie disperse dal vento
tra labirinti di cristalli blu
appare il viso di chi se ne è andato
e non torna più

Sai ti penso tanto
lo sai ti sento tanto...

Viaggia la mente nei ricordi miei
viaggia, viaggia avvolta nella nostalgia di te
come la luce di un diamante pazzo che
resta per sempre, per sempre dentro agli occhi
negli orizzonti e nei tramonti che vorrei
tempo che non invecchia una fotografia
da sempre storie... di gente uguale a noi...

Ja, det brevet, den som skrev det, hon har vilat i min famn
Det var Britta (jag nämner inte något efternamn)
Det kan kvitta, skriver Britta, om jag vänta får ett år
när jag vet att ditt hjärta för mig slår

Du som sovit i halm och som vaknat i kvalm
Och som sjunger i soluppgången krigarn's morgonpsalm
där i ledet du går, där du spejande står 
tänk på Britta som snart du kyssa får

Hör soldaterna, kamraterna med knatter och med knall
hör, på fält och i skogar tonar truppens glada trall
Över krigarna på stigarna och lottorna i byn
stiger flyget som örnar emot skyn

Du som sovit i halm och som vaknat i kvalm
Och som sjunger i soluppgången krigarn's morgonpsalm
där i ledet du går, där du spejande står 
tänk på Britta som snart du kyssa får

Kan du hitta, skriver Britta, en som har dig mera kär?
Kan du drömma hur ömma mina känslor för dig är?
Som den bölja du ser skölja stranden av vårt fria land
smyger Britta sig mjukt uti din famn

Du som sovit i halm och som vaknat i kvalm
Och som sjunger i soluppgången krigarn's morgonpsalm
där i ledet du går, där du spejande står 
tänk på Britta som snart du kyssa får

There may be trouble ahead
But while there's music and moonlight
And love and romance
Let's face the music and dance
Before the fiddlers have fled
Before they ask us to pay the bill
And while we still have that chance
Let's face the music and dance
Soon, we'll be without the moon
Humming a different tune, and then 
There may be teardrops to shed
So while there's music and moonlight
And love and romance
Let's face the music and dance 

British Grenadier Guards
(Traditional)



Some talk of Alexander, and some of Hercules
Of Hector and Lysander, and such great names as these
But of all the world’s great heroes
There’s none that can compare
With a tow, row row row, row row row
To the British Grenadiers

None of these ancient heroes ne’er saw a cannon ball
Nor knew the force of powder to slay their foes with all
But our brave boys do know it and banish all their fears
Sing tow, row row row, row row row
For the British Grenadiers

When e’er we are commanded to storm the palisades
Our leaders march with fuses, and we with hand grenades
We throw them from the glacis about the enemies’ ears
Sing tow, row row row, row row row
For the British Grenadiers

And when the siege is over, we to the town repair
The townsmen cry ‘Hurrah, boys, here comes a Grenadier’
Here come the Grenadiers, my boys, who know no doubts or fears
Sing tow, row row row, row row row
For the British Grenadiers

So let us fill a bumper, and drink a health to those
Who carry caps and pouches, and wear the louped clothes
May they and their commanders live happy all their years
Sing tow, row row row, row row row
For the British Grenadiers

Yo-di-o-di-o
Never trust no gal in britches

Let's Have Another Cup O' Coffee
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance/First recording by: 
J. Harold Murray & Katherine Carrington - 1932/Fred Waring & His Pennsylvanians - 1932
and multiple other artists



Why worry when skies are gray
Why should we complain
Let's laugh at the cloudy day
Let's sing in the rain
Songwriters say the storm quickly passes
That's their philosophy
They see the world through rose-colored glasses
Why shouldn't we?

Just around the corner
There's a rainbow in the sky
So let's have another cup o' coffee
And let's have another piece o' pie!

Trouble's just a bubble
And the clouds will soon roll by
So let's have another cup o' coffee
And let's have another piece o' pie

Let a smile be your umbrella
For it's just an April show'r
Even John D. Rockefeller
Is looking for the silver lining

Mister Herbert Hoover
Says that now's the time to buy
So let's have another cup o' coffee
And let's have another piece o' pie!

[Alternate Lines:]
Things that really matter
Are the things that gold can't buy
