Composer(s): Bill Hudson;
Brett Hudson; Mark Hudson; Bruce Johnston
Performer(s): The Hudson Brothers



Come on there, think I'm back
That doesn't mean you have to be so sad
'Cause I'm gonna see you anyway tonight
rendezvous underneath the moonlight

I'm gonna meet you on a rendezvous, oh
Rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous
Rendezvous, oh, rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous

I found a place that's all our own
Where we can talk and be left alone
Oh, I'm gonna see you later on tonight
Rendezvous with you underneath the moonlight

I'm gonna meet you on a rendezvous, oh
Rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous
Rendezvous, oh, rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous

All right!

I found love with you every night
I'll take good careof you the rest of your life
Boy and girl become a woman and man
Comin' toether sharin' all what we can

I'm gonna meet you on a rendezvous, oh
Rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous
Rendezvous, oh, rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous

Rendezvous, rendezvous, rendez-rendez-rendez-rendezvous

Si Seulement


Si Seulement
((Adapted from: Dirty, Dirty Feeling (Elvis Presley) - 1960))
Composer(s): Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller - Eddy Mitchell - Georges Vesta
Performer(s): Les Chaussettes Noires - 1961



Si seulement tu voyais ma peine
Tu reviendrais entre mes bras
Au fond, je sais bien que tu m'aimes
Et que tu n'aimeras que moi
Nous sommes deux gosses, oui, mais quand même
Rappelle-toi depuis toujours
Tu m'as dit et redit «Je t'aime»
Dans notre square du vieux faubourg
Si seulement tu voulais comprendre
Que mon amour n'a pas changé
On s'était promis de s'attendre
Dis-moi ce qui peut te troubler

Nous sommes deux gosses, c'est le problème
Comprends enfin que le bonheur
N'est pas là-bas où l'on t'entraîne
Il te faut écouter ton cœur
Quand, demain, tu verras ma peine
Tu reviendras entre mes bras
Au fond, tu sais bien que tu m'aimes
Et que tu n'aimeras que moi

Circus


Circus
Composer(s): Rod Argent
Performer(s): Rod Argent



In the circus, each must play a part
The clown the jester, mirror the meaning of their art
In the circus you can be fool or may be king
The sound of laughter is in the wedding of the ring

But all are found
Seeking the love of the crowd
And all are reaching out
In the circus, in the circus, in the circus

Circo Beat


Circo Beat
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez



Buenas noches
ladies and gentlemen
bon soir
sean bienvenidos a la primera función
del Circo Beat
el circo mas sexy
mas alto
mas tonto del mundo
desde ahora y para siempre
cualquier semejanza con hechos reales
correrán por vuestra propia imaginación
arrivederci é buona fortuna
queste sono le ultime parole
d'il terzo angelo di Cristo
dopo parlare in l'strada
con il uomo che non sapeva piú di niente!!!

Psicodélica star de la mística de los pobres
de misterio, de amor, de dinero y soledad...
yo no vine hasta acá a ayudarte buscando cobre
mi pasado es real y el futuro es libertad

Circo beat, circo beat
todo el mundo juega aquí en el circo beat
circo beat, circo beat
rayos y culebras en al circo beat

Casi todos tendrán un instante su touch de gloria
llegaremos en jeep, llegaremos a la ciudad...
no me gusta cantar
yo me muero con Gena Rowlands
y los monos están devastando este lugar

Un circo vi, un circo vi
cuando yo era pibe algún circo vi
un circo vi, un circo vi
no pasaba nada pero un circo vi circo beat

Remove This Doubt


Remove This Doubt
Composer(s): Brian Holland;
Lamont Dozier; Edward Holland, Jr.
Performer(s): The Supremes; Elvis Costello



It's hurting me, it's hurting me
This doubt is hurting me

So remove this doubt
From my heart, little boy
And let me live my life
Knowing you care

Remove this doubt
From my mind, little boy
And let me breathe again
Feeling my love you share

Each time we meet
You make me feel so incomplete
There's no joy in the air
I just don't think you care

Close the door of doubt forever more
And may it never more make me unsure
Turn the key and lock away this doubt in me
Keep it in the dark, not in my heart
Be more tender
Completely surrender your love to me
Be sweet and not discreet

Remove this doubt
From my mind, little boy
And let me breathe again
Feeling my love you share

Each time we meet
You make me feel so incomplete
There's no joy in the air
I just don't think you care

Remove this doubt in our hearts
Remove this doubt from my heart

The Prisoner's Song


The Prisoner's Song
(Traditional)
First release by: Vernon Dalhart - 1924
Covered by multiple other artists



Oh, I wish I had someone to love me
Someone to call me their own
Oh, I wish I had someone to live with
'Cause I'm tired of livin' alone

Oh, please meet me tonight in the moonlight
Please meet me tonight all alone
For I have a sad story to tell you
It's a story that's never been told

I'll be carried to the new jail tomorrow
Leavin' my poor darlin' alone
With the cold prison bars all around me
And my head on a pillow of stone

Now I have a grand ship on the ocean
All mounted with silver and gold
And before my poor darlin' would suffer
Oh, that ship would be anchored and sold

Now if I had wings like an angel
Over these prison walls I would fly
And I'd fly to the arms of my poor darlin'
And there I'd be willin' to die

Circles Composer(s): Harry Chapin First release by: The New Seekers - 1972 Covered by multiple other artists



All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle But I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by It seems like I've been here before I can't remember when But I've got this funny feeling That I'll be back once again There's no straight lines make up my life And all my roads have bends There's no clear-cut beginnings And so far no dead-ends All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle But I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by I've found you a thousand times I guess you've done the same But then we lose each other It's just like a children's game And as I see you here again The thought runs through my mind Our love is like a circle Let's go round one more time All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle And I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle But I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle But I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by All my life's a circle Sunrise and sundown The moon rose through the nighttime Till the day break comes around All my life's a circle But I can't tell you why The seasons spinning round again The years keep rolling by

Remote Romance


Remote Romance
Composer(s): Andrew Latimer; Kit Watkins
Performer(s): Camel



It's automatic
There's too much static
Ooh your signal's fading
Down goes my rating
Ooh your signal's fading

Remote - remote
Romance - romance

Rush-button passion
I won't repeat it
I won't repeat it
I won't repeat (ha ha ha)

Wait a minute
Wait a minute but...

It's just a sequence
It makes no real sense
It's just a sequence
It makes no real sense

It's automatic
There's too much statix
Can't get no feed-back
I'm on the wrong track

Wait a minute
It don't make a lot of sense
Just a sequence
It makes no real sense

The Prisoner


The Prisoner
Composer(s): Sayer Courtney - Roger Daltrey - Todd
Performer(s): Roger Daltrey



Days go - so slow
Life just slipping away
Day after day
The wall's too close to me now
Oh I can't take too much more
All the lying
Is it just an illusion
I've been feeling the strain
And it's more than just pain
I can't help myself
'Cause I've lost myself

If I could see you through the wire
And just forget about tomorrow
No one listens to what I am saying
I'm just a sad man another sad man
They say I'm no bad man
But I'm no bad man

Wasted - wasted
All my life's been wasted
Sitting here in this room
I can get no release
It's all war and no peace

If I could see you through the wire
And just forget about tomorrow
Someone listen to what I am saying
I'm just a sad man another sad man

If I could see you through the wire
And just forget about tomorrow
Someone listen to what I am saying
I'm just a sad man another sad man
Don't say I'm a bad man
'Cause I'm no bad man

They say it's wrong to set me free
I'll do no harm
'Cause I'm no bad man

Circles (Captain & Tennille)


Circles
Composer(s): Toni Tennille
Performer(s): Captain & Tennille



He drew a circle that shut me out
he was afraid of what life was all about
Whenever I saw him he'd be there inside him
locking his heart in a place to hide it
But oh love and I knew just where to begin
Yes love and I started a circle within
oh love and I
We drew a circle, a beautiful circle
a wonderful circle that took him in
He was a quiet and lonely one
he didn't know that his life had just begun
I knew that I'd be the one to unwind him
get him to put all his fears behind him
And oh love and I, knew just where to begin
Yes, love and I started a circle within
oh love and I
We drew a circle, a beautiful circle
a wonderful circle that took him in
lost in a circle, a beautiful circle, a wonderful circle of love
la la la la
lost in a circle, a beautiful circle, a wonderful circle of love
Oh love and I, knew just where to begin
yes love and I, started a circle within
oh love and I
We drew a circle, a beautiful circle
a wonderful circle that took him in

Remise De Peine


Remise De Peine
Composer(s): E. Miossec; David Hallyday
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday



Ils m'ont laissé sortir hier soir
Tu sais j'avais hâte de te revoir
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
T'es toujours la même

Tu sais jamais je n'aurais
Pur croire
Qu'au monde quelqu'un
Garde l'espoir
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Une étoile dans le ciel

J'ai purgé ma peine
A en trancher mes veines
J'veux plus que tu me craignes
J'te ferai plus de peine

Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Qu'est-ce que je t'aime
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
A en crever le ciel

J'aimerais tant ne plus
Te décevoir
Faire comme les autres quand
Tombe le soir
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
A en crever le ciel

J'vivrai plus sur le fil du rasoir
J'essaierai de changer de trottoir
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Mon dieu comme je t'aime

Ce ne sera plus pareil
Fini la dévaine
Les nuits sans sommeil
Je n'veux plus que tu saignes

Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Qu'est-ce que je t'aime
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Mon étoile dans le ciel

J'aimrerais tant
Que tu puisses me croire
Tu sais j'ai de nouveau l'espoir
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
T'es toujours la même

J'ai purgé ma peine
A en trancher mes veines
J'veux que tu me reprennes
Je te ferai plus de peine
Ce ne sera plus pareil
Fini la déveine
Les nuits sans sommeil
Je n'veux plus que tu saignes

Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Qu'est-ce que je t'aime
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
A en crever le ciel

Qu'est-ce que t'es belle
Qu'est-ce que t'es belle

Ik zal eens iets vertellen
Iets vertellen over mijn stad
Ik wil wel iets vertellen, mensen
en dat gaat over mijn stad

Ja daar bij dat water
Aan de oever van de Nete
Ja daar kan je ons vinden
in het kruiske gaan wij swingen

Want ik ben zot op dat vuil water
Oh, Lier daar ben ik thuis

Maar alle knappe grieten
Zijn om twaalf uur thuis
Maar ik blijf zoeken en proberen
Oh, griet, draag jij mijn kruis

Oh, ik ben zot op dat vuil water
Oh, Lier daar ben ik thuis

Circle Sky


Circle Sky Composer(s): Michael Nesmith Performer(s): The Monkees and multiple other artists



Circle Sky
Telling lies
Raison d'etre
Idol threat

'Cause it looks like we made it once again
Yes, it looks like we made it once again

Color Sound
Run aground
Seagull sails
Holy Grail

'Cause it looks like we made it once again
Yes, it looks like we made it once again

It's a very extraordinary scene
To those who don't understand
But what you have seen you must believe
If you can, if you can

Hamilton
Smiling down
NRG
Falling free

'Cause it looks like we made it once again
Yes, it looks like we made it once again

It's a very extraordinary scene
To those who don't understand
But what you have seen you must believe
If you can, if you can

Reminiscing (Little River Band)


Reminiscing
Composer(s): Graham Goble
Performer(s): Little River Band



Friday night it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
Would it turn out right?

How to tell you boy,
I want to build my world around you
Wanna tell you that it's true
I wanna to make you understand
I'm talking about a lifetime plan

That's the way it began
We were hand in hand
Glenn Miller's Band was better than before
We yelled and screamed for more
And the chorus tune
Made us dance across the room
It ended all too soon
And on the way back home
I promised you'd never be alone

Hurry, don't be late
I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancing in the dark
We'll go walking through the park
And reminiscing

Friday night it was late
I was walking you home
We got down to the gate
And I was dreaming of the night
(Dreaming of the night)
Would it turn out right?
Now as the years roll on
Each time we hear our favourite song
The memories come along

Older times we're missing
Spending the hours reminiscing

Hurry, don't be late
I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancing in the dark
We'll go walking through the park
And reminiscing

Hurry, don't be late
I can hardly wait
I said to myself when we're old
We'll go dancing in the dark
We'll go walking through the park
And reminiscing

We'll go dancing in the dark
We'll go walking through the park
And reminiscing

Circle Of Hands


Circle Of Hands Composer(s): Ken Hensley Performer(s): Uriah Heep; The Easy Livin'



Circle of hands
Cold spirits plan
Searching my land
For an enemy
Came across
Love's sweet cost
And in the face of beauty
Evil was lost

Sky full of eyes
Minds full of lies
Black from their cold hearts
Down to their graves
Murdered the dawn
Spreading their scorn
Cursing the sun
Of which love was born

We must keep them away
Or pretty soon we'll pay
And count the cost in sorrow
Sacrifice - the future has it's price
And today is only
Yesterday's tomorrow

Tomorrow ...

Reminiscing (Buddy Holly)


Reminiscing
Composer(s): King Curtis
Performer(s): Buddy Holly;
and various other artists



I’m just sittin’ here reminiscin’
Wond’rin’ who you’ve been kissin’
Baby, who-oh-oh baby
I’ve been wanderin’ all around
There must be a new guy in town
You don’t love me any more
I’ll get over you, baby,
Although my heart’s still sore
Well you know my heart’s still sore

When I think of all the lies you told
To that young man my heart you’ve sold
Your cheatin’, and the mean mistreatin’
When I think of all the fun we had
Kinda makes me feel so sad
An’ I’m lonely, for your love
And the longest day I live
It’s only you that I’ll be thinkin’ of
You know I’m thinkin’ of
Well it’s you I’m thinkin’ of
Hmm, hmm, hmmm

Foutue Vieille Ville


Foutue Vieille Ville
((Adapted from: Dirty Old Town (Ewan McColl) - 1949))
Composer(s): Ewan McColl - Yves Dardenne
Performer(s): Jo Lemaire - 1994



On s'est aimé près du vieux canal
enlacés sans penser à mal
on s'est aimé
jusque dans tes entrailles
foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

au ciel d'hiver, la lune brillait
derrière les nuages noirs fuyants
c'est ta laideur qui nous excédait
foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

au désespoir d'une sirène
un train mettait toute la nuit en feu
tu répandais ton écœrante haleine
foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

je trouverai une hache tranchante
un couperet en acier trempé
et j'abattrai ta vile charpente
foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

on s'est aimé près du vieux canal
enlacés sans penser à mal
on s'est aimé
jusque dans tes entrailles
foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

foutue vieille ville, foutue vieille ville

The Circle Game


The Circle Game ((Dutch Version: De Cirkel (Miek en Roel) - 1970)) Composer(s): Joni Mitchell First release by: Ian & Sylvia - 1967 Covered by multiple other artists



Yesterday a child came out to wonder
Caught a dragonfly inside a jar
Fearful when the sky was full of thunder
And tearful at the falling of a star
Then the child moved ten times round the seasons
Skated over ten clear frozen streams
Words like, when you're older, must appease him
And promises of someday make his dreams
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

Sixteen springs and sixteen summers gone now
Cartwheels turn to car wheels thru the town
And they tell him,
Take your time, it won't be long now
Till you drag your feet to slow the circles down
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

So the years spin by and now the boy is twenty
Though his dreams have lost some grandeur
Coming true
There'll be new dreams, maybe better dreams and plenty
Before the last revolving year is through
And the seasons they go round and round
And the painted ponies go up and down
We're captive on the carousel of time
We can't return, we can only look behind
From where we came
And go round and round and round
In the circle game

Remind Me


Remind Me
Composer(s): Dorothy Fields; Jerome Kern
Performer(s): Doris Day & André Previn; and various other artists



Remind me not to find you so attractive
Remind me that the world is full of men
When I start to miss you, to touch your hand, to kiss you
Remind me to count to ten

I had a feeling when I met you
You’d drive me crazy if I let you
But all my efforts to forget you
Remind me I’m in love again

Not to mention that I love you

To be sorry that we met
Although I adore you, remind me to ignore you
You’re one thing I will regret
So when your charm begins to blind me
I’ll simply tie my hands behind me
Don’t let me kiss you, please remind me
Unless, my darling, you forget
