    Magus
    ((Adapted from: The Wizard (Black Sabbath) - 1970))
    Composer(s): Tony Iommi - Ozzy Osbourne - Geezer Butler - Bill Ward - Kristiina Leinemann
    Performer(s): Magus - 2002



    Nebulosa, nubila dies
    Repentino magus ambulans
    inficit umbra, cantitat sic
    Habet vestem tintinnantem

    Nihil dieens
    praetermeat
    Tantae sunt vires

    Malae vires fugiunt
    Daemones timent, magus cum adest
    Tristes mutat hilares
    Omnes gaudent, donee magus adest

    Nihil dicens
    praetenneat
    Tantae sunt vires

    Sol lucescit, nubes absunt
    hominesque-iaeti sunt nunc
    Magus in nos notam fecit
    iaetari nos praeferimus

    Nihil dicens
    praeterrneat
    Tantae sunt vires

    Como Dijo Cristo
    Composer(s): Ramón Ortega Contreras
    Performer(s): Javier Solís



    Perdona si te quito el tiempo
    pero me urge mucho hablar hoy contigo
    Quisiera aclarar un punto
    muy interesante de nuestro cariño

    Me dices que me quieres mucho
    pero hay quienes dicen que no es verdad
    que te has enamorado de otros labios
    quiero que me digas hoy la realidad

    Envidia yo no tengo envidia
    yo no siento celos por ningún cariño
    Y menos cuando estoy dudando
    cuando no hay un lazo que nos tenga unidos

    Al César lo que sea del César
    como dijo Cristo te lo digo a ti
    tú dale a todo el mundo lo que quieras
    yo no más te pido lo que sea de mí

    Rome (Wasn't Built In A Day)
    Composer(s): Sam Cooke; Beverly Prudhomme
    Performer(s): Sam Cooke;
    Arthur Conley; Johnnie Taylor



    Chorus:
    Don't, honey, don't go away, no no
    Don't you hear, don't you hear what I say, what I say?
    Give me time, give me time
    I'm gonna make your love as strong as mine
    But I know Rome wasn't built in a day

    Now you know that I love you, dear, with all my heart
    I know that you didn't love me from the start
    That I'm planting a little seed in your heart, I know
    And it just needs time to grow, baby

    (chorus)

    Listen to me, honey now
    How would Romeo feel if his Juliet
    Had turned down his advances and played hard-to-get?
    He would never let this bother him, this I know
    Because where there's life, there's hope

    (chorus)

    Don't you hear me tellin' you that Rome wasn't built in a day?
    Don't you realize that Rome wasn't built in a day?

    Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou
    Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you
    Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau
    She's the witch queen (ahhhh) of New Orlea-eans
    Of New Orlea-eans

    I'm gonna tell you a story, strange as it now see-eems
    Of zombie, voodoo, gris gris, and the Witch Queen of New Orleans
    She lived in a world of magic, possessed by the devils skew-ew
    From a shack near the swamplands, made of mud-pile brick
    Marie stirred her witches brew-ew

    Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou

    Dime or a nickel anyone could buy-uy, voodoo of any ki-ind
    She had potions and lotions, herbs and tanna leaves
    Guaranteed to blow your mi-ind
    Early one mornin' into mucky swamp dew
    Vanished Marie with hate in her eye-eyes
    Though she'll never return, all the Cajuns knew-ew
    A Witch Queen never die-ie-ies

    Marie, Marie, da voodoo veau, she'll put a spell on you-ou

    Composer(s): Emilio del Guercio
    Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto



    A vos
    te presto mi corazón
    llevalo por otros mundos
    y otras distancias y otros amores
    llevátelo
    A vos
    te doy mi mejor canción
    llevala para tu vida
    para esa herida
    para tu boca
    llevátela
    Yo la esperaré despierto otra vez
    cuando ella quiera volver
    trayéndome nuevas historias
    para contar
    A vos
    te presto mi corazón
    para ese amor de verano
    beso por beso, mano por mano
    llevátelo
    A vos
    te doy mi mejor canción
    para una noche cualquiera
    por la vereda, mirando el cielo
    llevátela
    Yo la esperaré despierto otra vez
    cuando ella quiera volver
    trayendome nuevas historias
    para contar

    Romanza De La Luna
    Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez



    Vuela el mundo sobre el techo
    dicen el búho que cantando
    todo mira, todo busca
    todo dice pregonando
    pregonando, ay, pregonando

    ¿Dónde está la siempreterna
    moraleja de la luna?
    ¿Dónde está que no la encuentro
    yo, que no tengo ninguna
    desde cuándo, ay, desde cuándo?

    Cantar y cantar
    las lunas se van y se van
    Mas otras vendrán
    porque éstas no están
    ya no están

    Subo un monte en la mañana
    bajo un río por la tarde
    voy con tu mirada a cuestas
    sobre mi mente que arde
    desde cuándo, ay, desde cuándo

    The Winner Takes It All
    Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Bjorn Ulvaeus
    First release by: ABBA - 1980
    Covered by multiple other artists

    Versions In Other Languages:
    1980 - A Ty Se Ptáš, Co Já (Helena Vondrácková)
    1981 - Bravo Tu As Gagné (Mireille Mathieu)
    1981 - Allora Prendi E Vai (Wilma Goich)
    1995 - De Wereld Draait Maar Door... (Wendy Van Wanten)
    2005 - Va Todo Al Ganador (Nina)



    I don't wanna talk
    About the things we've gone through
    Though it's hurting me
    Now it's history
    I've played all my cards
    And that's what you've done too
    Nothing more to say
    No more ace to play

    The winner takes it all
    The loser standing small
    Beside the victory
    That's her destiny

    I was in your arms
    Thinking I belonged there
    I figured it made sense
    Building me a fence
    Building me a home
    Thinking I'd be strong there
    But I was a fool
    Playing by the rules

    The gods may throw a dice
    Their minds as cold as ice
    And someone way down here
    Loses someone dear
    The winner takes it all
    The loser has to fall
    It's simple and it's plain
    Why should I complain

    But tell me does she kiss
    Like I used to kiss you?
    Does it feel the same
    When she calls your name?
    Somewhere deep inside
    You must know I miss you
    But what can I say
    Rules must be obeyed

    The judges will decide
    The likes of me abide
    Spectators of the show
    Always staying low
    The game is on again
    A lover or a friend
    A big thing or a small
    The winner takes it all

    I don't wanna talk
    If it makes you feel sad
    And I understand
    You've come to shake my hand
    I apologize
    If it makes you feel bad
    Seeing me so tense
    No self-confidence
    But you see
    The winner takes it all
    The winner takes it all...

    Como antes, más que antes, te amaré
    por la vida yo mi vida te daré

    y tus manos con mis manos acariciar

    En mi mundo todo el mundo eres tú
    nunca nadie quise tanto como a ti
    Cada día, cada instante, dulcemente te diré
    como antes, más que antes, te amaré

    Como antes, más que antes, te amaré

    Espinhos, esporas
    Sobre a renda labirinto
    Pedras no meu peito
    Aberto em chaga amor

    Ai ferraduras de prata
    Cascos tinindo a aurora
    Que cavaleiro castanho
    Come teu pelo moreno

    Breu e cal manchas de sangue
    Gavião cara-donzela
    Cachorro que não se aqueta
    Sobre a cama camarinha

    Espinhos, esporas...

    Lençol cheiro de alfazema
    Falas, copos de aguardente
    Facas rasgando o corpete
    Suspiros parto criança

    Hoje eu ví toque a defunto
    Das dores doido de estrada
    Eu d’olhos solto nos ares
    Conheço a morte e a paixão

    Ya no quiero hablar, ya se dijo todo
    Duele aun mover cosas del ayer
    Hice igual que tu, me quede sin cartas
    Ya no hay vuelta atras, no reparten mas

    Va todo al ganador, a quien jugó mejor
    Me toca a mi perder, que le voy a hacer
    Quise ver en ti, un lugar seguro
    Un muro alrededor, ese fue mi error

    No debi soñar un amor tan puro
    Que inocente fue, ir de buena fe
    Los dioses por placer, elijen sin querer
    Sus dados al rodar, marcan nuestro azar

    Va todo al ganador
    Te deja su dolor es como debe ser
    Hoy igual que ayer

    Y dime como es, como son sus besos
    Si al llamarte amor, es mejor su voz
    Algo en tu interior sabe que te añora para que mentir
    Yo no se fingir y no importa que juez sentencie cada vez

    El fallo se cumplio nadie se quejo el juego
    Sigue igual actues bien o mal lo bueno
    Y lo mejor va todo al ganador...
    Ya no quiero hablar, ya no me apetece
    Gracias por venir no hay nada que añadir
    Siento estar asi, si eso te entristece
    Llena de ansiedad de inseguridad ya lo ves
    Va todo al ganador va todo al ganador el juego
    Sigue igual actues bien o mal lo bueno
    Y lo mejor va todo al ganador...
    Va todo al ganador

    Si alguna vez has visto atardecer
    cuando la voz del viento
    es como un pequeño sin hogar
    llorando tras el trebolar
    Si has visto al sol caer tras el pinar
    ardiendo como un tronco en el mar
    y entre las sombras sin querer
    lloraste en un atardecer
    es que has amado alguna vez
    como amo yo su desnudez
    Como amo yo

    Una dulce musica
    Una luz palida
    Y una sombra antigua
    Un violin quejandose
    Una voz zingara
    Y un sabor a lagrimas
    Un camino inmensamente blanco
    Que no acabara
    Y un castillo viejo recordando
    Tiempos que se van
    Un temblor de citaras
    Una culta oracion
    Y una noche sin final

    Oh, oh, moscu
    Oh, oh, moscu
    Romantica moscu

    Una hermosa fabula
    Bajo un sol timido
    Y una blanca luna
    Un millon de cupulas
    Y en un lago una flor
    Solitaria y unica
    Un camino inmensamente blanco
    Que no acabara
    Y un castillo viejo recordando
    Tiempos que se van
    Un temblor de citaras
    Una culta oracion
    Y una noche para amar

    Stilte voor de storm
    Of voel je zelfs geen pijn meer
    Geen brief, geen telefoon
    Vergeten waar ik woon
    Alles wat je wilt
    Maar doe niet onverschillig
    Maak je nog eens kwaad
    Zeg dat je me haat

    De wereld draait maar door
    Het leven gaat toch voort
    En ik sta hier alleen
    Mijn droom valt weer uiteen

    Foto's aan de muur
    Blijven naar mij kijken
    Samen hand inhand
    Stoeien aan het strand
    Veel te kort van duur
    Zo zou later blijken
    'k Voelde mij zo goed
    Liefde smaakt zo zoet

    Maar dan dat vreemd gevoel
    Jij werd zo vreselijk koel
    De harde werkelijkheid
    Ah, ik ben je kwijt

    De wereld draait maar door
    Het leven gaat toch voort
    En ik sta hier alleen
    Mijn droom valt weer uiteen

    Doet zij even graag
    Wat wij zo graag deden
    Geeft ze jou genoeg
    Alles wat je vroeg
    Alles wat ik vraag
    Hou van het verleden
    Als is de droom voorbij
    Denk nog eens aan mij

    Maar dan dat vreemd gevoel
    Jij werd zo vreselijk koel
    De harde werkelijkheid
    Ah, ik ben je kwijt

    De wereld draait maar door
    Het leven gaat toch voort
    En ik sta hier alleen
    Mijn droom valt weer uiteen

    Stilte voor de storm
    Of voel je zelfs geen pijn meer
    Geen brief, geen telefoon
    Vergeten waar ik woon

    Maar doe niet onverschillig
    Maak je nog eens kwaad

    They wanna get a statement for jesus sake
    It’s like talking to the wall
    He’s incommunicado no comment to make
    He’s saying nothing at all

    But in the communiqué you know he’s gonna come clean
    Think what he say, say what he mean
    Maybe on monday he got something to say

    Maybe he could talk about the tricks of the trade
    Maybe he could talk about himself
    Maybe he could talk about the money that he made
    Maybe he’d be saying something else

    And now the rumors are flying
    Speculation rising
    Say that he’s been trying someone else’s wife
    Somebody at the airport
    Somebody on the phone
    Says he’s at the station and he’s coming on the noon
    Then we get the story a serious breeze
    And a photograph taken in the hall
    You don’t have to worry with the previous release
    Right now, he’s saying nothing at all
    But in the communiqué you know he’s gonna come clean
    Think what he say, say what he mean
    Maybe on monday he got something to say

    Bambina mia
    sono l'ultimo poeta che s'ispira ad una stella
    Bambina mia
    sono l'ultimo inguaribile malato di poesia

    E voglio bene a te
    perché sei come me
    romantica

    Tu sei romantica
    amarti e' un po' rivivere
    nella semplicità
    nell'irrealtà
    di un altra età

    Tu sei romantica
    amica delle nuvole
    che cercano lassù
    un po' di sol
    come fai tu

    Tu sei la musica
    che ispira l'anima
    sei tu il mio angolo
    di paradiso per me

    Ed io che accanto a te
    son ritornato a vivere
    a te racconterò
    affiderò
    i sogni miei
    perché romantica
    tu sei

    Tu sei la musica
    che ispira l'anima
    sei tu il mio angolo
    di paradiso
    per me

    Tu sei romantica
    amica delle nuvole
    a te racconterò

    Composer(s): Shel Silverstein
    Performer(s): Bobby Bare



    The hulk of a man with a beer in his hand looked like a drunk old fool
    And I knew that if I hit him right, I could knock him off that stool
    But everybody said, "Watch out, that's Tiger Man McCool
    He's had a whole lot of fights, and he always come out the winner"

    But I'd had myself about five too many, and I walked up tall and proud
    I faced his back and I faced the fact that he'd never stooped or bowed
    I said, "Tiger Man, you're a pussycat," and a hush fell on the crowd
    I said, "Let's you and me go outside and see who's the winner"

    Well, he gripped the bar with one big hairy hand and he braced against the wall
    He slowly looked up from his beer, my god, that man was tall
    He said, "Boy, I see you're a scrapper, so just before you fall
    I'm gonna tell you just a little what a means to be a winner"

    He said, "You see these bright white smilin' teeth, you know they ain't my own
    Mine rolled away like Chiclets down a street in San Antone
    But I left that person cursin', nursin' seven broken bones
    And he only broke three of mine, and that make me a winner"

    He said, "Behind this grin, I got a steel pin that holds my jaw in place
    A trophy of my most successful motorcycle race
    And every mornin' when I wake and touch this scar across my face
    It reminds me of all I got by bein' a winner

    Now my broken back was the dyin' act of handsome Harry Clay
    That sticky Cincinnatti night I stole his wife away
    But that woman, she gets uglier and meaner every day
    But I got her, boy, and that's what makes me a winner

    You gotta speak loud when you challenge me, son, 'cause it's hard for me to hear
    With this twisted neck and these migraine pains and this cauliflower ear
    'N' if it weren't for this glass eye of mine, I'd shed a happy tear
    To think of all you'll get by bein' a winner

    I got arthritic elbows, boy, I got dislocated knees
    From pickin' fights with thunderstorms and chargin' into trees
    And my nose's been broke so often, I might lose it if I sneeze
    And, son, you say you still wanna be a winner?

    My spine is short three vertebrae and my hip is screwed together
    My ankles warn me every time there'll be a change in the weather
    Guess I kicked too many asses, and when the kicks all get together
    They sure can slow you down when you're a winner

    My knuckles are so swollen I can hardly make a fist
    Who would have thought old Charlie had a blade taped to his wrist
    And my blind eye's where he cut me, and my good eye's where he missed
    Yeah, you lose a couple of things when you're a winner

    My head is just a bunch of clumps and lumps and bumps and scars
    From chargin' broken bottles and buttin' crowded bars
    And this hernia, well, it only proves a man can't lift a car
    But you're expected to do it all when you're a winner

    Got a steel plate inside my skull, underneath this store-bought hair
    My pelvis is aluminum from takin' ladies' dares
    And if you had a magnet, son, you could lift me off my chair
    I'm a man of steel, but I'm rustin'....what a winner

    I got a perforated ulcer, I got strictures and incisions
    My prostate's barely holdin' up from those all-night collisions
    And I'll have to fight two of you because of my double vision
    You're lookin' sick, son....that ain't right for a winner

    Winnin' that last stock-car race cost me my favorite toes
    Winnin' that factory foreman's job, it browned and broke my nose
    And these haemorrhoids come from winnin' all them goddamn rodeos
    Sometimes it's a pain in the butt to be a winner

    In the war, I got the Purple Heart, that's why my nerves are gone
    And I ruined my liver in drinkin' contests, which I always won
    And I should be retired now, rockin' on my lawn
    But you losers keep comin' on, makin' me a winner

    When I walk, you can hear my pelvis rattle, creak and crack
    From my great Olympic hump-off with that nymphomaniac
    After which I spent the next six weeks in traction on my back
    While whe walked off smilin', leavin' me the winner

    Now, as I kick in your family jewels, you'll notice my left leg drags
    And this jacket's kinda padded up where my right shoulder sags
    And there's a special part of me I keep in this paper bag
    And I'll show it to you, if you want to see all of the winner

    So I never play the violin and I seldom dance or ski
    They say there never was a hero brave and strong as me
    But when you're this year's hero, son, you're next year's used-to-be
    And that's the facts of life....when you're a winner

    Now, you remind me a lot of my younger days, with your knuckles clenchin' white
    But, boy, I'm gonna sit right here and sip this beer all night
    And if there's somethin' you gotta prove by winnin' some silly fight
    Well, OK, I quit, I lose, son, you're the winner"

    So I stumbled from that barroom not so tall and not so proud
    And behind me I could hear the hoots of laughter from the crowd
    But my eyes still see and my nose still works and my teeth are still in my mouth
    And y'know, I guess that makes me a winner

    and multiple other artists



    Bambina mia
    Alle lieder dieser erde
    Sind für dich allein geschrieben
    Bambina mia
    Für uns beide sind die sterne
    Sind die märchen noch geblieben

    Du bist romantica
    Weil dich das wunder dieser welt
    In seiner ganzen pracht
    Bei tag und nacht gefangen hält
    Du bist romantica
    Die schönsten träume werden wabr
    Und jeder neue tag
    Den du mir schenkst
    Ist wunderbar

    Du siehst den sonnenschein
    Der dir vom himmel lacht
    Nicht nur bei tag allein
    Nein, auch im dunkel der nacht

    Du bist romantica
    Kein zauber kann so strahlend sein
    Und darum sag ich dir
    Ich wünsche mir
    Mit dir allein
    Nur noch romantica zu sein
    Du bist romantica
    Die schönsten träume werden wahr
    Und jeder neue tag
    Den du mir schenkst
    Ist wunderbar

    Du siehst den sonnenschein
    Der dir vom himmel lacht
    Nicht nur bei tag allein
    Nein auch im dunkel der nacht

    Du bist romantica
    Kein zauber kann so strahlend sein
    Und darum sag ich dir
    Ich wünsche mir
    Mit dir allein
    Nur noch romantica
    Nur noch romantica
    Nur noch romantica zu sein

    The Wine Of Youth
    Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



    While we still hold, the card in our hands
    the fleeing treasure, of youth we know
    we're living life to its full measure
    For the fruit of love is growing
    when the wine of youth is flowing

    And while we hear life's distant bells still ringing laughter
    we're full of hope, we're blessed with joy, we have no care
    So let us drink, while life is brimming
    with the wine of youth

    Time, so swiftly flies, our summer skies soon slip away
    Time, so swiftly wings, each parting wings
    each chandelles sadness, so timeless
    And then in vain, we cup our hands and catch but sorrow
    Each drop of time, like falling rain, knows no tomorrow
    We can't hold and sip forever from the wine of youth

    Before we learn to smile, our smiles are behind us
    Before we learn to live, our life has run away
    In a momentary sigh, before we understand
    we watch it all go by
    We'll never know that time, time again
    And then in vain, we cup our hands and catch but sorrow
    Each drop of time, like falling rain, knows no tomorrow
    We can't hold and sip forever from the wine of youth

    Communication
    Performer(s): David McCallum



    How can we get through to him?
    Who am I? Where am I going?
    With no time to spare as a man rowing from a shoreless lake
    Never slowing the pace, but never spying land
    I am as most people, I suppose, lost, not knowing why
    But I need to know
    (We need your love the whole day through)
    (We need your love the whole night too)
    (But how can we get through to you)
    (Help us to stop, stop feeling blue)
    (Communication, yes, yes, communication)
    (Please help us get through to you)
    I know, I'll go and see what men have done before me, in the past
    In case there's one who wrote or drew or painted, perhaps in fun
    A moment of his life that gave him pause
    Who knows, the answer may lie in the heat of the Sun
    ( I saw him with Mylene at the movies
    I saw him with Pat at the store. Pat's a blond
    I'm a blond. Can I get a date with him? Do you
    really think I could?)
    (We need your love the whole day through)
    (We need your love the whole night too)
    (But how do we get through to you)
    (Help us to stop, stop feeling blue)
    (Communication, yes, yes, communication)
    I must find myself before it's too late
    In life or death, in love or hate
    In peace and war, or through the gates of Hell
    If that's the way to seek my fate
    And then, and only then could you get through to me
    And then, if all is well, we'd make a date
    But not now, you see I really have to go
    So would you girls mind stepping off my motorcycle
