Composer(s): Lucien Morisse - Danyel Gérard - G. Helian
Performer(s): Dalida; Raymond Lefevre & His Orch.



Ne crains rien je reviens car je t'aimerai toujours
T'aimerai toujours c'est bien toi mon unique amour
Aujourd'hui, je suis loin mais je reviendrai un jour
Reviendrai un jour car près de toi je suis si bien

Oui je sais bientôt que sur l'océan
J'irai chaque jour de l'avant

Si le temps et les gens ont changé jour après jour
Mon cœur n'est plus lourd je suis sûre de mes sentiments

Ne crains rien je reviens car je t'aimerai toujours
T'aimerai toujours c'est bien toi mon unique amour
Et plus rien jamais rien ne pourra dès mon retour
Oui dès mon retour ne pourra briser notre lien

Car tu pleures je sais
Et depuis si longtemps sachant que toute seul tu m'attends

Ne crains rien je reviens car je t'aimerai toujours
T'aimerai toujours dans ma vie je n'ai qu'un amour
Ne crains rien je reviens car je t'aimerai toujours
T'aimerai toujours c 'est bien toi mon unique amour
Aujourd'hui je suis loin mais je reviendrai un jour
Reviendrai un jour car près de toi je suis si bien
Oui je sais bientôt que sur l 'océan
J'irai chaque jour de l'avant

Ne crains rien je reviens car je t'aimerai toujours
T'aimerai toujours dans ma vie je n'ai qu'un amour

Mornin' Mr. Radio
Mornin' little Cheerios
Mornin' sister Oriole
Did I tell you everything is fine...
In my mind

Mornin' Mr. Shoe Shine Man
Shine 'em bright in white and tan
My baby said she loves me and
Need I tell you that
everything here is just fine
In my mind

'Scuse me if I sing
My heart has found its wings
Searchin' high and low
And now at last I know

Mornin' Mr. Golden Gate
I should walk but I can't wait
I can't wait to set it straight
I was shakin' but now I am
makin' it fine
Here in my mind

My heart will soar
With love that's rare and real
My smiling face will feel every cloud
Then higher still
Beyond the blue until
I know I can
Like any man
Reach out my hand
And touch the face of God

'Scuse me if I sing
My heart has found its wings
Searchin' high and low
And now at last I know

Mornin' Mr. Radio
Mornin' little Cheerios
Mornin' sister Oriole
Did I tell you everything is fine...
Wooo in my mind

So, won't you get up Oriole
So, won't you get up Cheerios
Wake up Mr. Radio
....it's fine
Here in my mind

Singin' about mornin' little radio
Mornin' little Cheerios
Wake up Mr. Radio
Need I tell you everything
right here is just doing fine

Gina, Gina, I kissed you once and then
I felt so wonderful, so very wonderful
Let's do it over again

Gina (Gina), Gina (Gina), I can't remember when
I've ever felt a kiss that made me feel like this
Let's do it over again

Look at you, oh, look at you
So warm, so sweet, so shy
Look at me, oh, look at me
I can't believe that I'm such a lucky guy

To have Gina, Gina all for my very own
It's much too wonderful, so very wonderful
To know that Gina is mine alone

Oh, look at you, oh, look at you
So warm, so sweet, so shy
Look at me, oh, look at me
I can't believe that I'm such a lucky guy

To have Gina (Gina), Gina (Gina) all for my very own
It's much too wonderful, so very wonderful
To know that Gina is mine (Gina is mine)

Tågen Kan Gå Igen


Tågen Kan Gå Igen
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog - Bo Carlsson - Sven-Olof Walldoff
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



När han försvann stod allting still
Natten blev aldrig dag
Mars ville aldrig bli april
Värmen stod jämt på svag
Men nu kan ni andas ut
Nu har jag gråtit slut
Nu är det över
Allting är som förut

Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän
Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän

Hoppas ni kan förlåta mej
Allt jag ställt till för er
Lovar att jag ska skärpa mej
Om jag gör slut med fler
Men nu kan i andas ut
Nu har jag gråtit slut
Nu är det över
Allting är som förut

Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän
Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän

Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän
Tågen kan gå igen
Klockan kan slå igen
Jorden kan lika gärna få snurra
Trots att jag miste min vän

Morir Por Tu Amor
Composer(s): Belisario de Jesús García
Performer(s): Javier Solís
and various other artists



Morir por tu amor qué dicha ha de ser
morir por tus ojos divinos que son la expresión del placer
Morir, sí morir canta el ruiseñor
que todo en la vida es amor, amor

Cantar, cantar, cantar, cantar que al cabo la vida es muy corta
reír, reír, reír, reír que al cabo la vida está loca
amor, amor, amor, amor palabra que encierra un destino
tu nombre es sacrosanto porque en ti siempre existe el dolor

Morir por tu amor qué dicha ha de ser
morir por tus ojos divinos que son la expresión del placer
Morir sí morir canta el ruiseñor

Mijn Ideaal


Mijn Ideaal
((aka Je Laat Je Gaan (Koen Crucke) - 2004)) ((Adapted from: Tu T'laisses Aller (Charles Aznavour) - 1960)) Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Jip Feldman Performer(s): Corry Brokken - 1962

Versions In Other Languages: 1965 - You've Let Yourself Go (Charles Aznavour) 1970 - Ti Lasci Andare (Charles Aznavour) 1982 - Du Lässt Dich Geh'n (Charles Aznavour)



In het begin heb ik als je vrouw
Mijn ideaal gezien in jou
Je was zo stoer en zo sportief
Je had mij zo onstuimig lief
Je kuste mij zo resoluut
Ja, af en toe een beetje bruut
Je had zo'n echt piratenbloed
Zo'n ongetemde overmoed
Nu ben je je sportiviteit
En al je wilde haren kwijt

Mijn Ridder van het eerste uur
Jouw slank figuur werd op den duur
Het welgedane proza van
De goedgeslaagde zakenman
En jij hebt niets waarin een vrouw
Nog poezie ontdekken zou
En toch was jij die eerste maal
Mijn ideaal, mijn ideaal

Eens was je geestig en ad rem
Nu praat je enkel van tantieme
Thuis maak je ruzie om een cent
Maar in je Club de vlotte vent
Daar tref je vrienden naar je zin
Met net zo'n dubbele onderkin
En de allures heb je nog
Maar voor de spiegel ben je toch
Ondanks je branie en bravour:
Een jeune premier op z'n retour

Je komt naar huis toe elke dag
Een moede man vol zelfbeklag
En geeft een lauwe kus, uit sleur
Jij, eens mijn vurige charmeur
Mijn Cyrano de Bergerac
Wenst dat ik flensjes voor hem bak
Wat werd je burgerlijk banaal
Mijn ideaal, mijn ideaal

Je bent zo ijdel als een pauw
En slooft je uit voor elke vrouw
Je hebt een permanent complex
Of jij nog meetelt met je sex
Je cultiveert je dunne haar
En parfumeert het veel te zwaar
Dan speel je tennis en je flirt
Totdat je kou vat in je shirt
Dan breng je bloemen voor me mee
En ik geef jou kamillethee

En toch, als ik je dan zo zie
Zo stil en vol melancholie
Dan voel ik soms een ogenblik
Dat jij alleen bent, net als ik
Dan is die hulpeloze man
Die toch mijn zorg niet missen kan
Mij nog het liefst van allemaal
Mijn ideaal, mijn ideaal

Gin Tonic


Gin Tonic
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy; Gabriel Yared
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy



deux gin tonics... merci beaucoup...
quellle heure est-il? ça va et vous?
air de blues sur piano triste
je n'entends pas ce que vous dites...
aller-retours cosmopolites
dans ce bar de grand hôtel
raybans foncées qui vous évitent
et nos discours superficiels
se dire une fois "je t'aime"
même si les mots sonnent un peu faux
les dire quand même
lui dire une fois "je t'aime"
boire un peu trop
rêver tout haut
plus rien qui nous retienne
mais je perds le fil
que disiez-vous?
à qui pense-t-il?
où sommes-nous?
deux gin tonics... merci beaucoup...
Londres, Paris, Berlin, Bruxelles
dans quel pays vous cachez-vous?
quels paradis artificiels?

Tag min hand, låt oss bli vänner
Himlen är blå varför sura då?
Slå dig lös så snart du känner
Att en vän du kan få

Hej på dig som surar
Varför gör du det?
Har din vän försvunnit?
Skaffa dig en ny
Ja det finns så många
Som vill bli din vän, här har du en

Tag min hand, låt oss bli vänner
Himlen är blå varför sura då?
Slå dig lös så snart du känner
Att en vän du kan få

Du som gillar livet
Kom var med och sjung
Tänk så mycket roligt
Vi kan hitta på
Livet är så härligt
Jag vill inte se dig sura nu

Tag min hand, låt oss bli vänner
Himlen är blå varför sura då?
Slå dig lös så snart du känner
Att en vän du kan få

Tag min hand, låt oss bli vänner
Himlen är blå varför sura då?

Morir De Amor


Morir De Amor
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé; José Luis Perales
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé



Que es morir de Amor
morir de amor por dentro
Es quedarme sin tu luz
es perderte en un momento

Como puedo yo
decirte que lo siento?
Que tu ausencia es mi dolor
Que yo sin tu amor...me muero

Morir de amor
despacio y en silencio sin saber
que todo lo que he dado te llego a tiempo
Morir de amor
y no morir tan solo en desamor
y no tener un nombre que decirle al viento

Yo no se muy bien
que es lo que esta pasando
Tengo seco el corazon
y es de haber llorado tanto

No me quedan mas
que dos o tres recuerdos
Una Carta, alguna flor
un adios muy corto...y un te quiero

Morir de amor
despacio y en silencio sin saber
que todo lo que he dado te llego a tiempo
Morir de amor
y no morir tan solo en desamor
y no tener un nombre que decirle al viento

Performer(s): Lady Pank



Samotna i zla
Jakbys z planety byla zimnej
Tak to dlugo trwa
ze nikt nigdy nie znal ciebie innej
Daleka jak sen
Wciaz nie dostrzegasz spraw i ludzi
A gdzies czeka ten
który kiedys wreszcie cie obudzi

Tak dobrze cie znam ...
Chyba nawet lepiej niz ty siebie
Jestem taki sam ...
Wciaz widze setki plam na niebie
Nieufnosc to mgla
Co przynosi tylko cisze
Jak klatka ze szkla
Nie pozwala nam sie slyszec

Tacy sami, a sciana miedzy nami ...
Tacy sami
Tacy sami, a sciana miedzy nami ...
Tacy sami

I nie mów mi, nie
ze czasem takze zycie sie oplaca
Sama dobrze wiesz
ze co dzien tracisz cos, co juz nie wraca
Samotnosc to pies
Co kasa tak bez uprzedzenia
Ja wiem jak to jest ...
Znam to przeciez, znam, az do znudzenia

Tacy sami, a sciana miedzy nami ...
Tacy sami
Tacy sami, a sciana miedzy nami ...
Tacy sami

Tacy sami
Tacy sami
Tacy sami
Tacy sami

Tacy sami, a sciana miedzy nami ...

Tacos, Enchiladas And Beans


Tacos, Enchiladas And Beans
Composer(s): Mel Tormé - Robert Wells
Performer(s): Doris Day; Ray McKinley; Buck Pizzarelli



From the snow-capped mountains to the coral shores
You're the only one my heart adores
You've only got three competitors
Tacos, enchiladas and beans

From the Mississippi to the Amazon
There's not much we don't agree upon
Wish we could get together on
Tacos, enchiladas and beans

Love 'em, dozens of 'em
I consume them by the score
And when I'm through, what do I do
I stamp and holler for more

You can have the fourth position on my list
Must admit your kisses would be missed
But how in the world could I exist
Without tacos, enchiladas and beans

From the snow-capped mountains to the coral shores
You're the only one my heart adores
You've only got three competitors
Tacos, enchiladas and beans

From the Mississippi to the Amazon
There's not much we don't agree upon
Wish we could get together on
Tacos, enchiladas and beans

Love 'em, dozens of 'em
I consume them by the score
And when I'm through, what do I do
I stamp and holler for more

You can have the fourth position on my list
Must admit your kisses would be missed
But how in the world could I exist
Without tacos, enchiladas and beans

They make me kind of sick
But I love them

Morir Cantando


Morir Cantando (Adapted from: Mourir Sur Scène - 1983) (English & Italian Versions: Born To Sing; Quando Nasce Un Nuovo Amore) Composer(s): Michel Jouveaux; Jeff Barnel; Carlos Toro Performer(s): Dalida



Ven pero no vengas en soledad
Cuando el telon ya caiga por fin
Quiero que caiga tràs de mi

Ven, pero no vengas en solidad
Yo he escogido como vivir
Quiero escoger como morir
Cada cual quiere morir un dia gris
O bien a pleno sol
Cada cual quiere morir como dormir
Sin pena ni dolor

Yo quiero morir cantando, ésa es mi decision
En mitad del escenario, abierto todo mi corezon
Morir sin sentir tristeza, y sin mirar atras
Yo quiero morir asi
Cantando hasta el final

Ven pero no vengas en soledad
Las dos nos conocemes muy bien
Casi ganaste una vez

Ven pero no vengas en soledad
Haz por llegar con una avacion
Al terminar una cancion
Si he vivido bajo coros de luz
Quiero terminar igual
Fusilada por la rafaga azul
Di un projector mortal

Yo quiero morir cantando, ésa es mi decision
En mitad del escenario, aberto todo el corazon
Morir sin sentir tristeza, y sin mirar atras
Yo quiero morir asi, cantando hasta el final

Morir sin sentir triteza, cantando una cancion
Yo quiero morir asi, la mismo que naci

Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)


Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight)
Spanish Title: Dame! Dame! Dame! (Amor Esta Noche) Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Björn Ulvaeus Performer(s): ABBA



Half past twelve
And I'm watching the late show in my flat all alone
How I hate to spend the evening on my own
Autumn winds
Blowing outside the window as I look around the room
And it makes me so depressed to see the phone
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Movie stars
Find the end of the rainbow, with that fortune to win
It's so different from the world I'm living in
Tired of T.V.
I open the window and I gaze into the night
But there's nothing there to see, no one in sight
There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight...

There's not a soul out there
No one to hear my prayer

Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Won't somebody help me chase these shadows away
Gimme gimme gimme a man after midnight
Take me through the darkness to the break of the day

Tack Sverige
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog - Dieter Zimmermann
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog



Tack Sverige, för allt vackert som finns att se
Tack Sverige, du har fått oss att kunna le
Gröna skogar, himmel blå
Det finns så mycket man kan få
Tack Sverige, vi kan nog aldrig resa från vårat land

Lyssna på fåglarna
Hör sen på trädens sus
Titta, där växer rosorna
Där går ett kärlekspar
Vad det är underbart
Att kunna vara fri

Tack Sverige, för allt vackert som finns att se
Tack Sverige, du har fått oss att kunna le
Gröna skogar, himmel blå
Det finns så mycket man kan få
Tack Sverige, vi kan nog aldrig resa från vårat land

Jag ser en flicka le
Åt någonting hon ser
Jag hör en kyrkas klockor slå
Stunden är inne nu
De ska bli man och fru
Redan hörs orgelns toner

Gröna skogar, himmel blå
Det finns så mycket man kan få
Tack Sverige, vi kan nog aldrig resa från vårat land

Moribund The Burgermeister


Moribund The Burgermeister
Composer(s): Peter Gabriel
Performer(s): Peter Gabriel



Caught in the chaos in the market square
I don't know what, I don't know why
but something's wrong down there
Their bodies twistin' and turnin' in a thousand ways
The eyes all rollin' round and round into a distant gaze
Ah, look at that crowd!

Some are jumping up in the air
say "We're drowning in a torrent of blood!"
Others going down on their knees, seen a saviour coming out of the mud
Oh Mother!
It's eating out my soul
Destroying law and order, I'm gonna lose control

What can I do to stop this plague, spread by sight alone
Just a glimpse and then a quiver, then they shiver to the bone
Ah, look at them go!

Bunderschaft, you are going daft?
Better seal off the castle grounds
"This is Moribund, the Burgermeister
I'm gonna keep this monster down
Somebody sent the subversive element
going to chase it out of down"
No-one will tell what all this is about
But I will find out
(I will find out
I will find out)

This thing's really outrageous, I tell you on the level
It's really so contagious must be the work of the devil
You better go now, pick up the pipers, tell them to play
Seems the music keeps them quiet, there is no other way
Ah, close the doors!

"We've tried potions and waxen dolls, but none of us could find any cures"
Mother please, is it just a disease, that has them breaking all my laws
Check if you can disconnect the effect and I'll go after the cause
No-one will tell what this is all about
But I will find out
I will

Gimme Three Steps


Gimme Three Steps
Composer(s): Allen Collins; Ronnie Van Zant
Performer(s): Lynyrd Skynyrd;
and various other artists



I was cutting the rug
Down at a place called The Jug
With a girl named Linda Lu
When in walked a man
With a gun in his hand
And he was looking for you know who
He said, "Hey there fellow
With the hair colored yellow
Watcha tryin' to prove?
'Cause that's my woman there
And I'm a man who cares
And this might be all for you"

I was scared and fearing for my life
I was shakin' like a leaf on a tree
'Cause he was lean, mean
Big and bad, Lord
Pointin' that gun at me
I said, "Wait a minute, mister
I didn't even kiss her
Don't want no trouble with you
And I know you don't owe me
But I wish you'd let me
Ask one favor from you"

(Chorus)
"Won't you give me three steps
Gimme three steps mister
Gimme three steps towards the door?
Gimme three steps
Gimme three steps mister
And you'll never see me no more"

Well the crowd cleared away
And I began to pray
As the water fell on the floor
And I'm telling you son
Well, it ain't no fun
Staring straight down a forty-four
Well he turned and screamed at Linda Lu
And that's the break I was looking for
And you could hear me screaming a mile away
As I was headed out towards the door

(Chorus)

This Land Is Your Land


This Land Is Your Land
((French Version: Ce Coin De Terre (Dalida) - 1964))
Composer(s): Woody Guthrie
First recording: Woody Guthrie - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists



This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

As I was walking a ribbon of highway
I saw above me an endless skyway
I saw below me a golden valley
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

I've roamed and rambled and I've followed my footsteps
To the sparkling sands of her diamond deserts
And all around me a voice was sounding
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

The sun comes shining as I was strolling
The wheat fields waving and the dust clouds rolling
The fog was lifting a voice come chanting
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
As I was walkin' - I saw a sign there
And that sign said - no tress passin'
But on the other side .... it didn't say nothin!
Now that side was made for you and me!

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

In the squares of the city - In the shadow of the steeple
Near the relief office - I see my people
And some are grumblin' and some are wonderin'
If this land's still made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me

This land is your land, this land is my land
From California, to the New York Island
From the redwood forest, to the gulf stream waters
This land was made for you and me
