Nuit Et Brouillard Composer(s): Jean Ferrat Performer(s): Jean Ferrat; Isabelle Aubret
Ils étaient vingt et cent, ils étaient des milliers Nus et maigres, tremblants, dans ces wagons plombés Qui déchiraient la nuit de leurs ongles battants Ils étaient des milliers, ils étaient vingt et cent
Ils se croyaient des hommes, n'étaient plus que des nombres Depuis longtemps leurs dés avaient été jetés Dès que la main retombe il ne reste qu'une ombre Ils ne devaient jamais plus revoir un été
La fuite monotone et sans hâte du temps Survivre encore un jour, une heure, obstinément Combien de tours de roues, d'arrêts et de départs Qui n'en finissent pas de distiller l'espoir
Ils s'appelaient Jean-Pierre, Natacha ou Samuel Certains priaient Jésus, Jéhovah ou Vichnou D'autres ne priaient pas, mais qu'importe le ciel Ils voulaient simplement ne plus vivre à genoux
Ils n'arrivaient pas tous à la fin du voyage Ceux qui sont revenus peuvent-ils être heureux Ils essaient d'oublier, étonnés qu'à leur âge Les veines de leurs bras soient devenues si bleues
Les Allemands guettaient du haut des miradors La lune se taisait comme vous vous taisiez En regardant au loin, en regardant dehors Votre chair était tendre à leurs chiens policiers
On me dit à présent que ces mots n'ont plus cours Qu'il vaut mieux ne chanter que des chansons d'amour Que le sang sèche vite en entrant dans l'histoire Et qu'il ne sert à rien de prendre une guitare
Mais qui donc est de taille à pouvoir m'arrêter? L'ombre s'est faite humaine, aujourd'hui c'est l'été Je twisterais les mots s'il fallait les twister Pour qu'un jour les enfants sachent qui vous étiez
Vous étiez vingt et cent, vous étiez des milliers Nus et maigres, tremblants, dans ces wagons plombés Qui déchiriez la nuit de vos ongles battants Vous étiez des milliers, vous étiez vingt et cent
Nuit D'Amour Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Quartier louche Qui m'attire et m'fascine Comme ta bouche Rouge dans la vitrine Sous la couche De lumières assassines J'ai traversé les quartiers lourds Suant l'angoisse Puant le crime Pour cette unique et clandestine Nuit d'amour
La woman Martienne venue des beaux quartiers La woman Tendue de cuir à en craquer La woman Cheveux noirs aux reflets bleutés La woman Ongles vernis, bras tatoués J'ai shooté ceux qui rodent autour De tes fesses musclées et félines Pour mon unique et clandestine Nuit d'amour
J'ai cherchée Dans tous les bars toute la nuit Je t'ai trouvée Abandonnée dans un grand lit Aux limites De l'immense quartier chinois Où l'on entre Mais dont on ne sort pas Juste entre l'amour et la mort Nous mélangeons nos peaux qui brillent Comme un chirurgien de Manille Nuit d'amour
Quartier louche Qui m'attire et m'fascine Comme ta bouche Rouge dans la vitrine Sous la douche De lumières assassines T'as fait mouche Deux fois dans ma poitrine Rouge dans la vitrine Rouge dans la vitrine ...
Nuestro Tema Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez; Jacqueline Dankworth
Nuestro tema está cantado con arena espuma y aves del amanecer Nuestro tema está listo para ser brisa de las alas migratorias Nuestro tema es para ver llover
Nuestro está desnudo en un balcón fotografiando espigas de la mar Nuestro está viéndonos juntar besos a las seis de la mañana Nuestro tema es para recordar
Nuestro tema de amor tiene quebranto pero su empeño sana el dolor
Nuestro tema de amor nos cuesta tanto que ya es un sueño y una canción
Nuestro tema está en un solo de piano y en el radio más abrazador Nuestro tema está en el corredor de un hotel que se ha quedado sólo Nuestro tema es humedad de amor
Nuestro Juramento Composer(s): Benito de Jesús Performer(s): José Feliciano
No puedo verte triste porque me matas tu carita da pena mi dulce amor me duele tanto el llanto que tu derramas que se llena de angustia mi corazón
Yo sufro lo indecible si tu entristeces no quiero que la duda te haga llorar hemos jurado amarnos hasta la muerte si es que los muertos aman después de muertos amarnos más
Si yo muero primero, es tu promesa sobre de mi cadáver dejar caer todo el llanto que brote de tu tristeza y que todos se enteren de tu querer
Si tu mueres primero yo, yo te prometo escribiré la historia de nuestro amor con toda el alma llena de sentimiento la escribiré con sangre, con tinta sangre del corazón
Oh del corazón, mmm, mmm del corazón oye con tinta sangre del corazón
Nuestro Amor Composer(s): Benito de Jesús Performer(s): Javier Solis
Nuestro amor se va muriendo lentamente cruel dolor que me destroza el corazón No hay razón que justifique tal fracaso si tú y yo actuamos con más comprensión
Sabes bien que todo lo que soy te pertenece que sin mí te va a ser imposible ser feliz
Nuestro amor se va muriendo lentamente nuestro amor ya nunca debe terminar
Sabes bien que todo lo que soy te pertenece que sin mí te va a ser imposible ser feliz
Nuestro amor se va muriendo lentamente nuestro amor ya nunca debe terminar
Nuclear Apathy Composer(s): John Palumbo Performer(s): Crack The Sky
Something's wrong from the moon, my friends Something's wrong from the moon As I look down at you my friends Something's wrong from the moon Poor little man You been run down Poor little man You're all run down I can see right through your eyes I can see right through your weary eyes I can hear right through your cries I can hear right through your drunken cries When they spit, do you wash their floors And pray that they don't spit no more Or, rise up children, life goes on and on Wise up children, life goes on and on
In the dark you cannot see In the dark the victory is fear Like a fool you follow fools Like a fool you follow what you hear Will they blow us all apart Or kill us all with virus darts Or, rise up children, life goes on and on Wise up children, life goes on and on
On the moon they're laughing hard On the moon they're falling off their seats From the moon we're comedy From the moon we're really quite a treat Shall we have another beer And slobber through another year Or rise up children, life goes on and on Wise up children, life goes on and on Rise up children, life goes on and on Wise up
Something's wrong from the moon my friend Something's wrong from the moon As I look down at you my friends Something's wrong from the moon

Nu, nu, nu of nooit 'k Heb m'n hart aan je voeten gegooid En wacht op een woord, een woord van jou Ja of neen, neen of ja, 't Is tijd om te beslissen Denk niet langer na Nu, nu, nu of nooit Ook al hou ik van jou meer dan ooit Denk niet dat je mij eeuwig lang Rond je vinger draaien kan Doe mij niet meer aan dan ik nog verdragen kan Liever nog een blauwtje lopen Dan dat vrezen en weer hopen Ik kan andere meisjes krijgen Die niet tot dus blijven zwijgen
Nu, nu, nu of nooit Denk eraan voordat jij mij verstoot 't Is de laatste keer dat ik je vraag Ja of neen, neen of ja, 't Is nu of nooit want morgen is 't veel te laat

Nowhere To Run Composer(s): Lamont Dozier; Brian Holland Performer(s): Martha & The Vandellas
Nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (oooh) Got nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (oooh)
It's not love I'm runnin' from It's the heartaches I know will come 'Cause I know you're no good for me (no good) But you've become a part of me Everywhere I go, your face I see Every step I take, you take with me, yeah
Nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (oooh) Got nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (oooh) I know you're no good for me But free of you, I'll never be, no
Each night as I sleep, Into my heart, you creep I wake up feelin' sorry I met you Hopin' soon that I'll forget you When I look in the mirror to comb my hair, I see your face just a-smilin' there
Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide from you, baby (oooh) Got nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (oooh) I know you're no good for me But you've become a part of me
How can I fight a love That shouldn't be When it's so deep, so deep, Deep inside of me? My love reaches so high, I can't get over it It's so wide, I can't get around it, no
Nowhere to run Nowhere to hide from you, baby (oooh) Just can't get away from you, baby No matter how I try I know you're no good for me But free of you, I'll never be
Nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (nowhere to hide) Got nowhere to run to, baby Nowhere to hide (nowhere to hide) Got nowhere to run (nowhere to hide) Got nowhere to run (nowhere to hide) (fade out)
Nowhere Man Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney Performer(s): The Beatles; and various other artists
He's a real nowhere man Sitting in his nowhere land Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Doesn't have a point of view Knows not where he is going to Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere man, please listen, you don't know What you're missing Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He's as blind as he can be Just sees what he wants to see Nowhere man can you see me at all?
Nowhere man, don't worry Take your time, don't hurry Leave it all till somebody else lends you a hand
Doesn't have a point of view Knows not where he is going to Isn't he a bit like you and me?
Nowhere man, please listen, you don't know What you're missing Nowhere man, the world is at your command
He's a real nowhere man Sitting in his nowhere land Making all his nowhere plans for nobody Making all his nowhere plans for nobody Making all his nowhere plans for nobody
Nowhere At All Composer(s): Lou Reed Performer(s): Lou Reed
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane 'Cause some they likes it hot, and some they likes it cold and some they just don't like it at, like it at all now
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane Now somebody she's got to help me It makes me feel like, ah, that I'm nowhere at all It makes me feel like I'm nowhere at all
Somebody's got to help me this girl's got me on the line now 'Cause some they likes it hot, and some they likes it cold and some they just don't like it at, like it at all now
Somebody's got to help me this girl's drivin' me insane Somebody's got to help me She makes me feel like, I'm nowhere at all It makes me feel like I'm nowhere at all
I'm nowhere at all I'm nowhere, give it to me now I'm nowhere at all now No honey, Rocky don't know it at all I'm no, no, nowhere at all I'm nowhere at all now oh, give it to me now
Nowadays Clancy Can't Even Sing Composer(s): Neil Young Performer(s): Buffalo Springfield; The Carpenters; Fever Tree; Noctorum; Neil Young
Who's that stomping all over my face? Where's that silhouette I'm trying to trace? Who's putting sponge in the bells I once rung And taking my gypsy before she's begun To singing the meaning of what's in my mind Before I can take home what's rightfully mine Joinin' and listenin' and talkin' in rhymes Stoppin' the feeling to wait for the times
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
And who's all hung-up on that happiness thing? Who's trying to tune all the bells that he rings? And who's in the corner and down on the floor With pencil and paper just counting the score? And who's trying to act like he's just in between? The line isn't black, if you know that it's green Don't bother looking, you're too blind to see Who's coming on like he wanted to be
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
And who's coming home on the old nine-to-five? Who's got the feeling that he came alive Though havin' it, sharin' it ain't quite the same It ain't no gold nugget, you can't lay a claim Who's seeing eyes through the crack in the floor There it is baby, don't you worry no more Who should be sleepin', but is writing this song Wishin' and a-hopin' he weren't so damned wrong
Who's saying baby, that don't mean a thing 'Cause nowadays Clancy can't even sing
Now You Has Jazz Composer(s): Cole Porter Performer(s): Louis Armstrong; Joe Bushkin; Bing Crosby; Terry Lightfoot
Gentlefolk of Newport Or should I say "hats and cats" Please lend an ear That you all may hear Some shimmering sharps and flats For those cosy virtuosi known as "hipsters" to the trade wish to show you now Precisely how Jazz music is made
Take some skins Jazz begins Take a bass Steady pace Take a box One that rocks Take a blue horn New Orleans-born Take a stick With a lick Take a bone Dixie-grown Take a spot Cool and hot Now you has jazz jazz jazz, jazz, jazz
Now you has (6x) Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz Now you Has Now you Has Now you Has Now you has jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz, jazz
Jazz (6x) Now you has jazz (3x)
(Extra Refrain): If you sail Over the sea Take my tip They're all molto hip In Italy As for France Believe it or not Frenchmen all prefer what they call "Le Jazz Hot" Take a plane Go to Siam In Bangkok Today, 'round the clock They have a jam Indians on the Amazon Beat one bar and all of 'em are gone, man, gone From the Equator Up to the Pole Through the air you hear everywhere Rock and roll From the East Out to the West Jazz is king 'Cause jazz is the thing Folks Dig Best

Now That The Buffalo's Gone Composer(s): Buffy Sainte-Marie Performer(s): Buffy Saint-Marie; Sweet Honey in the Rock
Can you remember the times That you have held your head high and told all your friends of your Indian claim Proud good lady and proud good man Some great great grandfather from Indian blood came and you feel in your heart for these ones
Oh it's written in books and in song that we've been mistreated and wronged Well over and over I hear those same words from you good lady and you good man Well listen to me if you care where we stand and you feel you're a part of these ones
When a war between nations is lost the loser we know pays the cost but even when Germany fell to your hands consider dear lady, consider dear man you left them their pride and you left them their land and what have you done to these ones
Has a change come about my dear man or are you still taking our lands A treaty forever your senators sign They do dear lady, they do dear man and the treaties are broken again and again and what will you do for these ones
Oh it's all in the past you can say but it's still going on here today The governments now want the Navaho land that of the Inuit and the Cheyenne It's here and it's now you can help us dear man Now that the buffalo's gone
Now That I Know Love Composer(s): Steve George; Kenny Loggins Performer(s): Kenny Loggins
How do I know if I'm in love? Who could I ever learn to trust? I asked myself these questions for so long What do I only wish to see? What do I truly know to be? I told myself to hold on tight You never know enough But now I see what I believe 'Cause I'm believin' love
Chorus: Whether my mind's sayin' it's crazy Whether my world's sayin' I'm wrong Wherever my heart goes, that's where I belong I finally found out what faith is I follow the way that it feels And heaven has never been more real
When you looked into me And you laid your hands on me At once the deaf could hear The blind could see Now that I Know Love
I was a child alone, asleep You came along and cradled me You took me in your arms And rocked me so sweetly I'd prayed for love To come to pass How do we know if love will last? And if it can't then someone tell me What we're livin' for I don't know what tomorrow holds But I know what I know
Chorus
Glory be, I believe Oh I finally see that love isn't blind 'Cause I've never seen more clearly in my life Now that I Know Love
