Krøller Eller Ej


Krøller Eller Ej
Composer(s): Tommy Seebach - Keld Heick
First performance by: Debbie Cameron & Tommy Seebach - 1981



Jeg har en søn
På to
Med store lyse krøller
Jeg har en dreng
På tre
Med store brune øjne
Jamen, jeg har bare én mer' end du har
Okay, måske, men igen er bedre end min
For han er bare helt speciel
Hvis jeg må si' det selv

Krøller eller ej - vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej - vi elsker jeres børn
For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

Længe leve alle børn
Lyse krøller eller ej - vi elsker vores børn
Brune øjne eller ej - vi elsker jeres børn
For en ting er givet
Vi håber alle på
At de må få
De ting, de ønsker sig
Om de fire eller tres
Har krøller eller ej

(Længe leve børn)
(Om de har krøller eller ej)

Preghiera In Gennaio


Preghiera In Gennaio
Composer(s): Fabrizio de André
Performer(s): Fabrizio de André



Lascia che sia fiorito
Signore, il suo sentiero
quando a te la sua anima
e al mondo la sua pelle
dovrà riconsegnare
quando verrà al tuo cielo
là dove in pieno giorno
risplendono le stelle

Quando attraverserà
l'ultimo vecchio ponte
ai suicidi dirà
baciandoli alla fronte
venite in Paradiso
là dove vado anch'io
perché non c'è l'inferno
nel mondo del buon Dio

Fate che giunga a Voi
con le sue ossa stanche
seguito da migliaia
di quelle facce bianche
fate che a voi ritorni
fra i morti per oltraggio
che al cielo ed alla terra
mostrarono il coraggio

Signori benpensanti
spero non vi dispiaccia
se in cielo, in mezzo ai Santi
Dio, fra le sue braccia
soffocherà il singhiozzo
di quelle labbra smorte
che all'odio e all'ignoranza
preferirono la morte

Dio di misericordia
il tuo bel Paradiso
lo hai fatto soprattutto
per chi non ha sorriso
per quelli che han vissuto
con la coscienza pura
l'inferno esiste solo
per chi ne ha paura

Meglio di lui nessuno
mai ti potrà indicare
gli errori di noi tutti
che puoi e vuoi salvare

Ascolta la sua voce
che ormai canta nel vento
Dio di misericordia
vedrai, sarai contento
Dio di misericordia
vedrai, sarai contento

So You Win Again


So You Win Again
Composer(s): Russ Ballard
Performer(s): Hot Chocolate



Just to admit one mistake
That can be hard to take
I know we've made them fall
But only fools come back for more
Being the fool I am
I figured in all your plans, darling
Your perfumed letters didn't say
That you'd be leaving any day

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

And I'm not proud to say
I let love slip away
Now I'm the one who's crying
I'm a fool there's no denying
When will my heartache end
Will my whole life depend on fading memories
You took the game this time with ease

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

When will my heartache end
Will my whole life depend on fading memories
You took the game this time with ease

So you win again, you win again
Here I stand again, the loser
And just for fun you took my love and run
But love had just begun
I can't refuse her
But now I know that I'm the fool
Who won your love to lose it all
When you come back, you win again

Pregherò


Pregherò (Adapted from: Stand By Me Father - 1960) Composer(s): Sam Cooke - James Alexander - Don Backy Performer(s): Adriano Celentano - 1965 Titles In Other Languages: 1961 - Stand By Me 1963 - Tu Croiras 1983 - Reste Ici 1984 - Jää Mun Luo 1989 - Op De Hoek Van De Straa



Pregherò
per te
che hai la notte nel cuor
e se tu lo vorrai crederai
Io lo so
perché
tu la fede non hai
ma se tu lo vorrai crederai
Non devi odiare il sole
perché
tu non puoi vederlo ma c'é
ora splende
su di noi, su di noi
Dal castello
del silenzio
egli vede anche te
e già sento
che anche tu lo vedrai
E chissà se lo vedrai
solo con gli occhi miei
ed il mondo la sua luce riavrà
Io t'amo, t'amo, t'amo
questo é il primo segno
che da la tua fede
nel Signor, nel Signor

Prefiero Amar


Prefiero Amar
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Me dice el corazón
que no soy de este planeta
que caí de algún cometa
fuera de circulación
O acaso sea un clon
de algo así como un salvaje
que articula algún lenguaje
de una extraña dimensión
Porque sucede
que entro la fe y la felonía
la herencia y la herejía
la jaula y la jauría
entra morir o matar
prefiero, amor, amar
prefiero amar, prefiero amar
prefiero amor, amar
También pudiera ser
que me esté volviendo loco
porque me pegó el siroco
de la levedad del ser
Y qué le voy a hacer
si me falla alguna pieza
por creer que la Belleza
no se rindo ante el poder
Porque sucede...
Y puestos a elegir
entro el oro y el Parnaso
yo me pido ser payaso
mago, acróbata o faquir
O acaso un elixir
con orgiásticas burbujas
o la bola de las brujas
donde sueña el porvenir
Porque sucede...

So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star


So You Want to Be a Rock 'n' Roll Star
Composer(s): Chris Hillman - Jim McGuinn
Performer(s): The Byrds
and multiple other artists



So you want to be a rock 'n' roll star?
Then listen now to what I say
Just get an electric guitar
Then take some time
and learn how to play
And with your hair swung right
And your pants too tight
It's gonna be all right
Then it's time to go downtown
Where the agent man won't let you down
Sell your soul to the company
Who are waiting there to sell plastic ware
And in a week or two
If you make the charts
The girls'll tear you apart

The price you paid for your riches and fame
Was it all a strange game?
You're a little insane
The money, the fame, the public acclaim
Don't forget what you are
You're a rock 'n' roll star!

Predictable


Predictable
Composer(s): Ray Davies
Performer(s): The Kinks



Don't know why I'm even bothering
(Predictable)
Yeah, that's the mood I'm in
Go out for a walk then I come back in
(Predictable)
Yeah, the mood that I'm in
(Predictable)
Every day of my life
Can't even communicate with my wife
(Predictable)
That's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear

Go to my office, sit at my desk
Predictably just like all of the rest
I sit and I dream about far away places
Away from the people with frowns on their faces
All of my life is monotony
I'd go out for a walk but I know it would be
(Predictable)
Sure as the nose on my face
(Predictable)
Same for the whole human race

Once we (once we) had so many options
Once we (once we) had dignity and grace
Now we (now we) have got nothing but our own time to waste

(Predictable)
Yeah, that's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear
Why can't it be like never before?
(Predictable)
Yeah, ain't life a bore
(Predictable)
Life gets more and more...
Just like I've heard it all somewhere before
(Predictable)
Sure as the nose on my face
(Predictable)
Same for the whole human race

One day (one day) it's gonna get better some way (some way)
I wish it would get worse any way (any way)
What can I lose, it might turn into something better

It gets harder and harder the harder I try
(Predictable)
Feels like a good time to die
I kiss you hello then I kiss you good-bye
(Predictable)
Just like the stain on my tie
(Predictable)
Just like the jacket I wear
(Predictable)
The way that I'm combing my hair
Turn on the TV, just sit and stare
(Predictable)
There's nothing happening there

Yeah, that's the word of the year
(Predictable)
All I see, all I hear

C'est Peut-Être Pas L'Amérique


C'est Peut-Être Pas L'Amérique Performer(s): Jean-Claude Pascal



C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Elle vient du nord ou de Provence
Elle est tramontane ou mistral
Elle est le violon pour la danse
Ou le chœur dans la cathédrale

Elle chante dans mes soirs de fête
Elle berce mes nuits de cafard
Elle est ballade ou chansonnette
Elle est piano, elle est guitare

C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Elle vient du fond de nos mémoires
Elle vient d'avant que l'on soit né
Elle nous raconte notre histoire
Nos racines et notre passé

Si l'univers est à l'orage
Si la terre tremble sous nos pieds
Nous continuerons le voyage
Pour qu'elle n'arrête pas de chanter

C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique
Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

(C'est peut-être pas l'Amérique)
(Mais l'Amérique, ce n'est pas tout)
J'ai dans le cœur une musique
Et cette musique pour moi, c'est beaucoup

Predicción De La Fiesta


Predicción De La Fiesta
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero



Enciende amigo tu alegría y tu hoguera
que se acerca el tiempo de la vida
Quemad, quememos las palabras antiguas
las palabras del miedo y de la muerte

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven
Sobre los muros, los estanques, las plazas
sobre el viento y la roca escribiremos
la poesía que asalte con payasos y pólvora
la ciudad del agobio y la costumbre

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven
Instituciones alambradas y leyes
hombres de estado y otras antigüedades
serán recuerdos, pesadillas lejanas
que estudiará algún sabio bajo los árboles

Y ven, mira que la fiesta empieza ven

So You Think You've Got Troubles


So You Think You've Got Troubles
Composer(s): Marvin Rainwater
Performer(s): Marvin Rainwater



So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

My car sounds like an old tin can
My wife went off with another man
And I strained a muscle of my fishing hand
My income tax is due

Now I lost my money in a poker game
And I think my left leg is a-goin' lame
My brother asked if I'd change my name
And that's what I think I'll do

My doctor told me not to smoke
Drink nothing stronger than a coke
I'm not even supposed to hear dirty jokes
For I'd laugh and strain my heart
I had every ailment known to man
From the African mumps to a dishpan hands
I lost every race that I ever ran

I didn't even get a start

So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

Now some people call me a pessimist
They say that I oughta make the best of this
Well, maybe I am a pessimist
That's something that I wouldn't know
But one thing I do know, I'll tell you right now

I'm a-milkin' the wrong end of this old cow
There's to many wrinkles in this boy's brow
That stuff has got to go

So you think you've got troubles
The more you try the worse you get
So you think the world don't like you
Well brother, you ain't heard nothing yet

So I put me a bar in the back of my car
And drive myself to drink!

Precisamente, Tú


Precisamente, Tú
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael



Me dicen que has hablado mal de mi
No lo comprendo
Me dicen que tu has dicho no se que
Me habran mentido
Pues no concibo que seas tu
Precisamente, tu

Tu, precisamente, tu
De mi vas murmurando
Tu, precisamente, tu
Que tanto me has amado

Tu, que si el mundo me hubieses pedido
Lo hubiera robado por dartelo a ti
Y que si pena veia en tus ojos
Hacia el payaso por verte reir

Tu, tu, tu, tu, precisamente, tu
De mi vas murmurando
Tu, precisamente, tu
No puede ser verdad

Y aunque el sol y la luna me digan
Que si que te oyeron de mi murmurar
Yo dire que no, que es mentira
Tu no puedes hablar mal de mi

Tu, que si el mundo me hubieses pedido
Lo hubiera robado por dartelo a ti
Y que si pena veia en tus ojos
Hacia el payaso por verte reir

Tu, tu, tu, tu, precisamente, tu
De mi vas murmurando
Tu, precisamente, tu
No puede ser verdad

Y aunque el sol y la luna me digan
Que si que te oyeron de mi murmurar
Yo dire que no, que es mentira
Tu no puedes, tu no puedes
Tu no debes hablar mal de mi

Johnny Blue


Johnny Blue
First performance by: Lena Valaitis - 1981



Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, alle singen deine Lieder
Blue Blue Blue Jhonny Blue, und die ganze Welt hört zu

Er wuchs auf ohne Freunde, denn keiner wollt'spielen
mit einem der blind war wie er, und er saß meist zu Hause
die Jungen dort draußen, die riefen bloß hinter ihm her

Sie riefen
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, welche Farbe hat die Sonne?
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue - Kinder können grausam sein

Auf der alten Gitarre, die ihm jemand schenkte
da spielte er - sie war sein Freund, seine Lieder die klangen
nach Hoffnung und Freude und manchmal als ob jemand weint

Und er sang
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue - und die Kinder hörten zu

Und bald spielte keiner so wie er
seine Lieder, die gingen den Menschen ans Herz
und er malte Farben aus Musik
und vergaß all seinen Schmerz

Und bald kamen zehntausend zu seinen Konzerten
denn er schenkte ihnen die Kraft an die Zukunft zu glauben
im Dunkel des Lebens, er hatte es selber geschafft

Oh, Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, und sie kamen immer wieder
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, keiner spielt so schön wie du
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, alle singen deine Lieder
Blue Blue Blue Johnny Blue, und die ganze Welt hört zu

Precious Love


Precious Love
Composer(s): Bob Welch
Performer(s): Bob Welch



You got those big dark eyes that flash at me, baby
You got a head on your shoulders, you know what I mean
You got legs so long like you could walk on air
For you darlin', I'd go anywhere

(chorus)
For your love, your precious love
I'd do anything, yes I would
I want your love, your precious love
I've been too lonely too long

You got a kind of walk that's just so fine
The way you fill those blue jeans baby, my my my
Yes and when you smiled at me like you did just now
All I want is just to get to you somehow

(repeat chorus)

Yeah those big dark eyes that flash at me
It's just your precious love that I want, you to see

(repeat chorus)

Performer(s): Patsy Cline
and multiple other artists



I've been so wrong, for so long
Thought I could live without the love that you give
I was wrong, oh, so wrong
I've been so wrong, for so long
I didn't know that I loved you so
I was wrong

Well, I never knew I could want you darlin'
Oh, so much
Now that you're gone, I dream of you
And your sweet touch
I was so wrong, for so long
But I've seen the light, darlin', I'll make it right
I was wrong

Well, I never knew I could want you darlin'
Oh, so much
Now that you're gone, I dream of you
And your sweet touch
I was so wrong, for so long
But I've seen the light, darlin', I'll make it right
I was wrong

Precious Jewel


Precious Jewel
Performer(s): The Delmore Brothers



Way back in the hills when a boy I once wandered
Way deep in the grave lies the gal that I love
She was called from this earth a jewel for heaven
More precious than diamonds more precious than gold

A jewel here on earth a jewel in heaven
She'll brighten the kingdom around God's great throne
May the angels have peace God bless her in heaven
They've broken my heart and they've left me to roam

When a girl of sixteen we courted each other
She promised someday to become my sweet wife
I bought her the ring to wear on her finger
But the angels they called her in heaven one night

This world has left its wealth its trials and troubles
The earth holds her treasures of diamonds and gold
But they can't hold the soul of one precious jewel
She's resting in peace in the heavenly fold

So Wrong (Patrick Simmons)


So Wrong
Composer(s): Patrick Simmons - Chris Thompson
Performer(s): Patrick Simmons



They were young
Living for the moment
Hearts on fire
Burning in the night
Hopeless love
Driving them together
I dont know why

Vicious words
Cut them like a razor
Filthy lies
Tearing them apart
So they run
Clinging to each other
Cant get too far

So wrong, so wrong
How could they be
So wrong, so wrong
How could love be so wrong
I dont know why

Late at night
Tryin for the border
Through the police rendezvous
Warning shots
Flyin all around
What can they do

So wrong, so wrong
How could they be
So wrong, so wrong
How could love be so wrong
I dont know why

Precious And Few


Precious And Few
Composer(s): Walter Nims
Performer(s): Climax



Precious and few are the moments we two can share
Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you
And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair
Precious and few are the moments we two can share

Baby, it's you on my mind, your love is so rare
Being with you is a feeling I just can't compare
And if I can't hold you in my arms, it just wouldn't be fair
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share

And if I can't find my way back home it just wouldn't be fair
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share

Precious and few are the moments we two can share
Quiet and blue, like the sky, I'm hung over you
And if I can't find my way back home, it just wouldn't be fair
'Cause precious and few are the moments we two can share

The One That Got Away


The One That Got Away
Composer(s): Jim Reeves - Buddy Killen
Performer(s): Jim Reeves



Out with someone new almost ev'ry day
People look at me, I can hear them say
He's so lucky, he has everything going his way

I can't let them know that I really don't
I'm not with the one that I really want
And I'm still in love with the one that got away

The one that got away took all my love, not just a part
The one that got away, got away with my heart

If we chance to meet on some lonely street
And I pass you by without a word to say
I'm just thinkin' 'bout the one that got away
If we chance to meet on some lonely street
And I pass you by without a word to say
I'm just thinkin' 'bout the one that got away
