Angel Baby (Dean Martin)
Angel Baby
Composer(s): Michael - Niessen
Performer(s): Dean Martin
(Angel baby you're mine forever)
(Angel baby, you angel baby you)
Who is the dream who starts me dreaming
Angel baby
Then keeps me worrying and schemeing
You, angel baby, you
Who starts me walking 'round in clover
Angel baby
Then flips my crazy heart right over
You, angel baby, you
Who is the chick I would pick as the absolutely perfect miss for me to kiss
Who is the girl who can curl me around her finger when we kiss again
Who can imagine what I'd give for Angel baby
Just for the chance to love and live for
You, angel baby, you
(Angel baby) you're mine forever
(Angel baby) you, angel baby, you
(Who is the chick he would pick as the absolutely perfect miss for him to kiss)
(Who is the girl who can twirl him around her little finger when they kiss again)
Who can imagine what I'd give for Angel baby
Just for the chance to love and live for
You, angel baby, you
(Angel baby) you're mine forever
(Angel baby) you, angel baby, you

Darkness On The Delta
Darkness On The Delta
Composer(s): Jerry Livingston; Al J. Neilburg; Marty Symes
Performer(s): Cassandra Wilson
and various other artists
When it's darkness on the delta
that's the time my heart is light
When it's darkness on the delta
let me linger in the shelter of the night
Fields of cotton all around me
darkies singin' sweet and low
Lord I'm lucky that you found me
Where the muddy Mississippi waters flow
Lounging on the levee
Listenin' to the nightingales way up above
Laughter on the levee, no one's heart is heavy
All God's children got someone to love
When it's darkness on the delta
Only heaven is in sight
When it's darkness on the delta
let me linger in the shelter of the night

Angel And The Badman
Angel And The Badman
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash
There was a man whose deeds were dark as night
And quite by chance he rode into the light
A man wild as the dust devil with no place to run
Livin' by his wits and by his gun
He met a girl like none he had ever known
She cared not for the wild oats he had sown
And so he laid his gun down and set his spirit free
Began living in respectability
But his old ways of thinkin' wouldn't die
Could not forget the old creed he lived by
And the good and bad and right and wrong kept fightin' for his soul
Till his heart and mind both went out of control
But now the old saloon had lost its spell
What once was laughter now was living hell
And the hookers, guns and drinkin' in his life were out of place
And in his mind he saw an angel's face
So he burned all his bridges in a day
And the devil deeds were done and laid away
And he rode out a better man than when he first rode in
And the angel got the badman in the end

Darkness
Darkness
Composer(s): Gene Pitney
Performer(s): Roy Orbison
Darkness, darkness, hungry to the bone
Darkness, darkness, take my body home
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
She like a pooka
She holy roller, love me like a song
She like a lightning
She roller coaster, 'till the break of dawn
She like a shadow
She all around me, nasty hearted dream
She got the sexy
She do it to me, wake me when I dream
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Now I lay me down to sleep, goodnight
Pray the Lord my soul will keep tonight
If I die before I wake, in your arms my love can't break away
Darkness (she like a shadow)
Darkness (she all around me)
Nasty hearted dream
Darkness (she got the sexy)
Darkness (she do it to me)
Wake me when I scream
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love

Mon Ange
Mon Ange
Composer(s): Julien Clerc - Françoise Hardy - Jean Roussel
Performer(s): Julien Clerc; Françoise Hardy
Tu rêvais d'un amour
Tout en soie et velours
Que dire maintenant
Je n'étais qu'un chasseur
Capturant les cœurs
Volage, Don Juan
Tu as posé tes yeux bleu ciel
Sur moi et j'ai vu les ailes
D'un ange de lumière
À la sortie d'un tunnel
Bel ange
Mon ange
Mélange
Se venge
Se change
En
Démon
Mon ange
Me mord
Me mange
J'suis mort
J'suis marron
Toi la petite fille sage
Qui a peur de l'orage
Que faire maintenant
Jouer à la poupée
Douc'ment te bercer
T'aimer tout le temps
Malgré tout l'or et tout le miel
De ton cœur si fidèle
J'suis pas l'ange dont tu rêves
Ça non j'descends pas du ciel
J'dérange
Mon ange
Je change
Quand l'ange
Se change
En
Prison
J'décole
J'm'envole
Je flâne
Je plane
J'fais des bonds
Mon ange
Se fâche
Mon ange
Se cache
Me lache
Pour
De bon
Mon ange
Que j'aime
J't'ai fait
D'la peine
Oublions
Moi pour faire sécher tes larmes
Vois, j'ai déposé les armes
Tu sais bien c'est toujours toi qui gagnes
Plus de chagrin plus de drames
Malgré tout l'or et tout le miel
De ton cœur si fidèle
J'suis pas l'ange dont tu rêves
Ça non j'descends pas du ciel
J'dérange
Mon ange
Je change
Quand l'ange
Se change
En
Prison
J'décole
J'm'envole
Je flâne
Je plane
J'fais des bonds
Mon ange
Se fâche
Mon ange
Se cache
Me lache

Dark Star
Dark Star
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia; Mickey Hart; Robert Hunter;
Bill Kreutzmann; Phil Lesh; Ron "Pigpen" McKernan; Bob Weir
Performer(s): The Grateful Dead
Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashes
Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis
Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?
Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter
Glass hand dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving
Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of goodbye
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?

Composer(s): Salve d'Esposito - Domenico Titomanlio
First recording: Tito Schipa - 1950
Covered by multiple other artists
Nuje ca perdimmo 'a pace e 'o suonno
Nun ce dicimmo maje pecché
Vocche ca vase nun ne vonno
Nun só' sti vvocche oje né
Pure, te chiammo e nun rispunne
Pe' fá dispietto a me
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core
Nun ce lassammo cchiù, manco pe' n'ora
Stu desiderio 'e te mme fa paura
Campá cu te, sempe cu te, pe' nun murí
Che ce dicimmo a fá parole amare
Si 'o bbene po' campá cu nu respiro
Si smanie pure tu pe' chist'ammore
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core
Forse sarrá ca 'o chianto è doce
Forse sarrá ca bene fa
Quanno mme sento cchiù felice
Nun è felicitá
Specie si ê vvote tu mme dice
Distratta, 'a veritá
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core

Dark Moon
Composer(s): Ned Miller
Originally performed by: Bonnie Guitar
Covered by various other artists
Dark moon, a way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, what is the cause your light withdraws?
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love?
Mortals have dreams of love's perfect schemes
But they don't realize that love will sometimes bring a
Dark moon, a way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, what is the cause your light withdraws?
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love?
Mortals have dreams of love's perfect schemes
But they don't realize that love will sometimes bring a
Dark moon, a way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, what is the cause your light withdraws?
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love?

Andy's Chest
Andy's Chest
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): Lou Reed
If I could be anything in the world that flew
I would be a bat and come swooping after you
And if the last time you were here, things were a bit askew
Well, you know what happens after dark
When rattlesnakes loose their skins and their hearts
And all the missionaries loose their bark
All the trees are calling after you
And all the venom snipers after you
Are all the mountains boulder after you
If I could be anything of the things in this world that bite
Instead of being a tethered ocelot on a leash
I'd rather be your kite
And be tied to the end of your string
And flying in the air, babe, at night
Because you know what they say about honey bears
When you shave off all their baby hair
You've got a hairy minded big bare bear
And all the bells are rolling out for you
And stones are all erupting out for you
And all the cheap bloodsuckers are flying after you
Yesterday, Daisy Mae end Biff were grooving down the street
And just like in a movie, her hands became her feet
Her belly button was her mouth
Which meant she tasted what she'd speak
But the funny thing is what happened to her nose
It grew until it reached all of her toes
Now, when people say her feet smell, they mean her nose
And curtains laced with diamonds, dear, for you
And kingdom's Christian sailors (soldiers), dear, for you
And melting ice cap mountains, dear, for you
And knights in flaming silver robes for you
And bats, that with a kiss turn prince for you
Swoop, swoop, oh, baby, rock, rock ...

Dark Lady
Dark Lady
Composer(s): Johnny Durrill
Performer(s): Cher
The fortune queen of New Orleans
Was brushing her cat in her black limousine
On the backseat were scratches from
The marks of men her fortune she had won
Couldn't see through the tinted glass
She said "Home James" and he hit the gas
I Followed her to some darkened room
She took my money, she said "I'll be with you soon"
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself
She dealt two cards, a queen and a three
And mumbled some words that were so strange to me
Then she turned up a two-eyed jack
My eyes saw red but the card still stayed black
She said the man you love is secretly true
To someone else who is very close to you
My advice is that you leave this place
Never come back and forget you ever saw my face
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself
So I ran home and crawled in my bed
I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said
Then I remembered her strange perfume
And how I smelled it was in my own room!
So I sneaked back and caught her with my man
Laughing and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand
The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor
Dark Lady would never turn a card up anymore
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself

Sage Comme Une Image
Sage Comme Une Image
Composer(s): Jay Alanski - Jacques Duvall
First release by: Lio - 1980
C'est non mais ne crois pas
Que j'ai pas encore l'âge
Ce n'est rien d'autre
Qu'une affaire de maquillage
Tu risquerais d'ôter
Le rouge de ma bouche
Je ne touche personne
Et personne ne me touche
Je suis sage comme une image
Sage comme une image
Brillante à la page
Mais pas pour ton usage
Allongée dans ma chambre
Distraite je contemple
Le téléphone qui sonne
Et pourtant il me semble
T'avoir bien prévenu
Je ne réponds jamais
C'est vraiment gentil
D'avoir pensé à moi
C'est vraiment gentil
D'avoir pensé à moi... Mais
Si parfois je m'ennuie
Ce n'est pas vraiment grave
Les petites filles modernes
Ne pleurent pas car elles savent
Elles n'attendent personne
Elles préfèrent jouer seules
Et apprendre à mener le jeu
Comme elles le veulent
Tous les disques que j'aime
Me parlent et me protègent
Il n'y a qu'à les jouer pour
Que les nuits s'abrègent
Les pochettes défilent
Et j'aimerai assez
Pouvoir être comme elles
De papier glacé

Dark Horse
Dark Horse
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison
You thought that you knew where I was and when
But it looks like they've been foolin' you again
You thought that you'd got me all steaked out
But baby looks like I've been breaking out
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse
You thought you had got me in your grip
Baby looks like you was not so smart
And I became too slippery for you
But let me say that was nothing new
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I picked up my first spoon
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse
I thought that you knew it all along
Until you started getting me not right
Seems as if you heared a little late
But I warned you when
We both were at the starting gate
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Cooking at the source
I'm a dark horse

Andy Warhol
Andy Warhol
Composer(s): David Bowie
First release by: David Bowie - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
Like to take a cement fix
Be a standing cinema
Dress my friends up
just for show
See them as they really are
Put a peephole in my brain
Two New Pence to have a go
I'd like to be a gallery
Put you all inside my show
Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all
Andy walking, Andy tired
Andy take a little snooze
Tie him up when he's fast asleep
Send him on a pleasant cruise
When he wakes up on the sea
Be sure to think of me and you
He'll think about paint
and he'll think about glue
What a jolly boring thing to do
Andy Warhol looks a scream
Hang him on my wall
Andy Warhol, Silver Screen
Can't tell them apart at all

Dark Heart
Dark Heart
Composer(s): Jack Bruce; Kip Hanrahan
Performer(s): Jack Bruce
I can show you the darkest part
My shadow heart
Where your affections really start
Now there's cruelty in its tone
And anger in its pitch
Danger in the zone
You love me for it
Yes you love me for it . . .
Dark eyes
Stripped of all disguise
You're afraid of me
Just as much as you ever hoped to be
Broken glass on the table
Shadows in the air
Shadows in the air
You need me for it
Yes you need me for it
The clouds run by in the empty sky
There are mysteries there
And they're in your touch
There's a moving fear & a darkness here
And it's in my touch
It's in my touch
Dark eyes
Stripped of all disguise
Dark eyes
Stripped clear
Broken glass on the table
Shadows in the air
Shadows in the air
You need me for it
Yes you need me for it

Horizontaal
Horizontaal
Performer(s): Della Bosiers
Ik lig waterpas in bed, horizontaal
Uren later nog in bed, horizontaler
Daarna in mijn bad, dan voordien in mijn bed
En mijn teen konverseert met het schuimbellennet
En ik vlieger, hou de touwtjes wat minder strak
En ik wieg er uit
Nu de routine, gewoon routine
Wat harde broodjes met ei
Ik ren de trap af, deur uit
Straat af, tram op
Dag kantoor
En de machines, en de kombines
Het konsumeren gaat door
Totdat het tempo vertraagt, de winst verlaagt
Eeg, kantoor
Ik glijd speels en traag in bad, horizontaal
Uren later nog in bad, horizontaler
Daarna in mijn bed, dan voordien in mijn bad
En m'n huid konverseert met de bloemenlakenset
En ik vlieger, hou de touwtjes wat minder strak
En ik wieg er uit

Dark Entries
Dark Entries
Composer(s): Daniel Ash; Kevin Haskins;
J. David & Co; Peter Murphy
Originally performed by: Bauhaus
Covered by various other artists
Caressing bent up to the jug again
With sheaths and pills
Invading all those stills
In a hovel of a bed
I will scream in vain
Oh please miss Lane
Leave me with some pain
Went walking through this city's neon lights
In fear of disguising my warping seathing
Pressure lines and graceless heirs
Intangible of price
Trying so hard to find what?
What was right
I came upon your room it stuck into my head
We leapt into the bed degrading even lice
You took delight in taking down
All my shielded pride
Until exposed became my darker side
Puckering up and down some avenue of sin
Too cheap to ride they're worth a try
If only for the old times cold times
Don't go waving your pretentious love
He's soliciting on his tan brown brogues
Girating through some lonesome devils row
Pinpointing well meaning upper class prey
Of walking money checks posessing holes
He often sleekly offers his services
Exploitation of his finer years
Work with loosely woven fabrics
Of lonely office clerks
Any lay suffices his dollar green eye

Composer(s): Joey Molland - Cathy Molland
Performer(s): Badfinger
Run out of money
Run outta good
Run outta reasons and misunderstood
Run out of rhythm
Run out of rhyme
Right out of feelings and right out of time
Living in limbo, hanging around
Head on the ceiling and mind in the clouds
Blind is the morning and deaf is the night
Comes without warning and leaves me in fright
Saving all my money, yeah, for the rainy days
I'm packin' up my suitcase, make it pay
Run out of patience
And run out of lies
Run out of spaces and nowhere to hide
Living and loving is easy to get
Living is something we haven't tried yet
Yeah, I've been saving all my money, yeah, for the rainy days
Well, I'm packin' up my suitcase, make it pay
Hey
I run out of money
Run out of good
Run out of reasons and misunderstood
Run out of rhythm
Run out of rhyme
Right out of feelings and right out of time
Blind is the morning and deaf is the night
Comes without warning and leaves me in fright
I've been saving all my money, yeah, for the rainy days
I'm packin' up my suitcase, make it pay

Dark Clouds
Composer(s): Robert Lucas
Performer(s): Canned Heat
Dark clouds, dark clouds follow me
Dark night, dark night is all I see
Man, I got these blues
Won't let a hold of me
Sometimes I dream of better days
Oh, from time to time, I dream of better days
Maybe it's just me
I gotta change my evil ways
I read the paper, 2000's all I see
I hope it gets better in the next century
But not just for the fat cats, people
For you and me
Dark clouds follow me everyway I go
Dark clouds follow me everyway I go
Oh man, these blues got a hold on me
I want you people to know
