Mediterraneo (Sarà Sarà)
(French & Spanish Versions: Soleil; Soleil Mi Sol)
Composer(s): Gian Guarnieri - G. Manicardi - Antonio Summa
Performer(s): Dalida
Sarà sarà, mediterraneo, sarà sarà la musica sarà
Barche dondolate Flirt di mezza estate Dolce vento d'olio di cocco vedrà Tiepide serate Un whiski e ghiaccio cambierà Sere piene di nuvole Un cameriere verserà Rose e complicità
Sarà sarà Mediterraneo Sarà sarà la musica sarà Dentro di me qualcosa cambierà Chissà domani quale amore resterà Sarà sarà Mediterraneo Sarà sarà la sera al Tropico Un'eco che non si ripeterà Ed una donna che non dira mai Oh mai, mai mai mai mai, oh mai, mai mai mai mai
Libro scritto male Film di carnevale Copre coi fiori coi trucchi coi se Voglie di volare Apiedi nudi ballero Sulla spiaggia che sa di blu E di quell'uomo resterà Sabbia niente di più
Sarà sarà Mediterraneo Sarà sarà la musica sarà Dentro di me qualcosa cambierà Chissà domani quale amore resterà Sarà sarà Mediterraneo Sarà sarà la sera al Tropico Un'eco che non si ripeterà Ed una donna che non dira mai Oh mai, mai mai mai mai, oh mai, mai mai mai mai
Guardo nello specchio Dritto nei miei occhi La mia mente vola lontano da amanti Tinti di rossetti Il corpo è un gatto libero Quante volte ti tradirà Ma senza nomi inutili Solo con verità Sarà sarà
Sarà sarà mediterraneo Sarà sarà la musica sarà Dentro di me qualcosa cambierà Chissà domani quale amore resterà Sarà sarà Mediterraneo Sarà sarà la sera al Tropico Un'eco che non si ripeterà Ed una donna che non dira mai Oh mai, mai mai mai mai, oh mai, mai mai mai mai
Living For The City ((Finnish Version: Liikaa Stadiin (by Kirka) - 1975)) Composer(s): Stevie Wonder First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1973 Covered by multiple other artists
A boy is born in hard time Mississippi Surrounded by four walls that ain't so pretty His parents give him love and affection To keep him strong moving in the right direction Living just enough, just enough for the city...ee ha! His father works some days for fourteen hours And you can bet he barely makes a dollar His mother goes to scrub the floors for many And you'd best believe she hardly gets a penny Living just enough, just enough for the city... yeah! His sister's black but she is sho'nuff pretty Her skirt is short but Lord her legs are sturdy To walk to school she's got to get up early Her clothes are old but never are they dirty Living just enough, just enough for the city...um hum Her brother's smart he's got more sense than many His patience's long but soon he won't have any To find a job is like a haystack needle Cause where he lives they don't use colored people Living just enough, just enough for the city... Living just enough... For the city... ooh, ooh (Repeat several times)
His hair is long, his feet are hard and gritty He spends his life walking the streets of New York City He's almost dead from breathing in air pollution He tried to vote but to him there's no solution Living just enough, just enough for the city...v yeah,yeah,yeah! I hope you hear inside my voice of sorrow And that it motivates you to make a better tomorrow This place is cruel no where could be much colder If we don't change the world will soon be over Living just enough, stop giving just enough for the city!!!! La, La, La, La, La, La Da Ba Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da Da (Repeat)

Living At The Canterbury Composer(s): Wiedlin Performer(s): The Go-Go's
Okay living in the city Whores outside a-posing Traffic noise a lullaby Skyscapers better than the blue skies We can do what we want We can say what we please We can be who we want Being poor's okay by me Proud I don't have no TV
Living at the Canterbury (My friends think I'm a fool) Living at the Canterbury I guess it's pretty cool
Living at the Canterbury Fighting off the roaches Like being in a dormitory Till rental due approaches (Don't know where we'll get the cash) Spent it all on booze I'm no fool with credit cards It's better not to think Sometimes little I like to think!
Media Vuelta Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez Performer(s): Eydie Gorme and multiple other artists

Si encuentras un amor que te comprenda y sientas que te quiere más que nadie entonces yo daré la media vuelta y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde entonces yo daré la media vuelta y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde
Si encuentras un amor que te comprenda y sientas que te quiere más que nadie entonces yo daré la media vuelta y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde entonces yo daré la media vuelta y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde

In the dirty old city There is my home There's my home, there's my home There is my home Nothing really looks pretty And I've been alone I've been alone, I've been alone I've been alone And made my heart Maybe we should start crying Living and dying And made my heart Maybe we should start crying Living and dying In the house of darkness There's a magic stone Magic stone, magic stone The magic stone But I couldn't find it 'Cause the shine is gone Shine is gone, shine is gone The shine is gone And made my heart Maybe we should start crying Living and dying And made my heart Maybe we should start crying Living and dying Living and dying Living and dying
Media Luz En Paris Composer(s): A. Abonizio; R. Goldin Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Da la media luz en Paris en Buenos Aires las seis volando sobre Berlin el whisky manchado de rouge Escribo como confesión te amo y te odio a la vez cuando bajas del avión seguro hay una extra de hotel
Pero las noches que paso sin vos me toco el cuerpo y recuerdo me rio de las cosas que hago cuando estoy solo las noches que paso sin voz me toco el cuerpo y recuerdo me rio de las cosas que hago cuando estoy solo
Quisiera poder clausurar los cielos con un murallon y que te licues en mi flotando en el paladar Hay tanta verdad sin amor mareo al subir y bajar la pista tu respiracion turbinas que dan la señal

Medallita De La Suerte Composer(s): M. Batistella; Carlos Gardel; Jose Razzano Performer(s): Carlos Gardel
Muchas glorias me dio el mundo al brindarme sus ofrendas son tantas, que las confundo aflojándoles las riendas Gran poder es el dinero mas de todas esas prendas es a vos a quien más quiero
Medallita de la suerte que te llevo desde niño es tan grande mi cariño como el miedo de perderte Yo nací para quererte porque junto a mi cunita te bendijo mi viejita con el llanto de su amor
Fuiste para mí canción de cuna en mis noches, blanca luna flor del aire en mi camino esperanza en mi destino y serás en mi partida la canción de despedida cuando a todos diga adiós
¡Nunca yo podré olvidar que fuiste vos mi dulce prenda querida!
Medallita de la suerte que te llevo desde niño es tan grande mi cariño como el miedo de perderte Yo nací para quererte porque junto a mi cunita te bendijo mi viejita con el llanto de su amor

When our kisses fly like oak leaves Caught in a gust of wind My heart beats fast, a clickty-clack Like a train goin' round a bend I call that Lovin' Up a Storm! I said that's Lovin Up a Storm! Well it's good for you honey It won't do you no harm Ah when a we get with it darlin' All I can hear is a sigh Something touches you deep in your heart Like it's lightin' from the sky I call that Lovin' Up a Storm! Whoaa Lovin Up a Storm! Well it's good for you baby It won't do you no harm Ohhhhh!
When we're embracing darlin' I get wild as a hurricane Ah when we kiss Great Balls of Fire! Ice-water's running through my veins I call that Lovin' Up a Storm! Ohhh Lovin Up a Storm! Well it's good for you baby It won't do you no harm Well it's good for you baby It won't do you no harm Oh... It's good for you baby It won't do you no harm
Living A Lie Composer(s): Peter DeAngelis - Jean Sawyer Performer(s): Al Martino
Why cry when she tells you she's leaving? A teardrop or two won't keep her loving you Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
You can't change her mind with your grievin' It's wrong to pretend, let it end This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try And that's better than living a lie
Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try And that's better than living a lie And that's better than livin' a lie
Méchante Avec De Jolis Seins Performer(s): Georges Brassens
Hélas, si j'avais pu deviner que vos avantages Cachaient sournoisement, madame, une foison d'oursins J'eusse borné mon zèle à d'innocents marivaudages Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins? Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
J'eusse borné mon zèle à d'innocents marivaudages Ma main n'eût pas quitté même un instant le clavecin Je me fusse permis un madrigal, pas davantage Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins? Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Quand on a comme vous reçu tant de grâce en partage C'est triste au fond du cur de rouler d'aussi noirs desseins Vous gâchez le métier de belle, et c'est du sabotage Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins? Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Vous gâchez le métier de belle, et c'est du sabotage Et je succombe ou presque sous votre charme assassin Moi qui vais tout à l'heure atteindre à la limite d'âge Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins? Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Moi qui vais tout à l'heure atteindre à la limite d'âge Mon ultime recours c'est d'entrer chez les capucins Car vous m'avez détruit, anéanti comme Carthage Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins? Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins Si méchante avec de jolis seins?

Mecca Composer(s): Neval Nader; John Gluck Jr. Performer(s): Gene Pitney
I live on the West side she lives on the East side of the stree-ee-eet And though they say that East is East and West is West And never the twain shall meet Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be 'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e
Oh she's my dream goddess and her ruby lips are so div-i-ine And though her folks say we're too young to know of love I worship at her shrine Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be 'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be 'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e

Mec Composer(s): Claude Lemesle; Michel Fugain Performer(s): Michel Fugain
Salut Mec J'ai eu du mal à trouver ta chambre T'aurais dû mettre "coucou c'est là!" Youpi Youpa L'infirmière à lunettes Parle de toi d'un air tendre T'as toujours eu la barre Mec Faudrait pas qu'ça s'arrête
Tu sais Mec Le Baby-foot à trois c'est pas drôle Sans cri de guerre le cur y est pas Youpi Youpa Hier au soir chez le grec On a forcé sur la gnôle On a fini cassé Mec On veut pas qu'ça s'arrête
Ce putain de venin Qui sème la mort dans le sang! Et ce putain de vaccin qui traîne! Accroche toi Mec, retiens La vie qui fuit mais qui t'aime Dans les bouquins ça fait bien De finir jeune mais nous on te veut Vieux...
Ce soir Mec Y a toutes les filles du monde qui pleurent Même celles qui ne connaissaient pas Youpi Youpa Et les vivants les plus secs Ont un pavé sur le cur Un ami qui s'en va Mec C'est la terre qui s'arrête
Tu vois Mec Ce matin le soleil avait honte De venir éclairer tout ça Youpi Youpa J'crois qu'de Lourdes à la mecque Les dieux se foutent du monde On va pas s'laisser faire Mec J'voudrais pas qu'ça s'arrête
Ce putain de destin Qui sème la merde en passant! Et ces putains de médecins qui traînent! Accroche-toi Mec, reviens Dans la mascarade humaine Au cinéma ça fait bien De partir jeune mais nous on te veut Vieux...
On t'aime Mec! Et t'as pas le droit de pas me répondre Allez fais-moi encore une fois Youpi Youpa! Redis-moi qu'j'suis un con Mec Que je crains que j'encombre Refais-moi c'que t'étais Mec J'voudrais pas qu'ça s'arrête
