I'm Your Little Boy
I'm Your Little Boy
Performer(s): Heintje
I'm your little boy, I'm your little boy
Every day, whatever I do
Even then when I'm bad and so wicked
Still my love is forever for you
I'm your little boy, just your little boy
When you met my toil pet sweeps my shoes
And I love all the games we are playing
Even then when you win and I lose
I'm your little boy, just your little boy
Every night in my bed I will pray
Don't let anything happen to mama
'Cause I can't sleep without her a day
Lalala...
Yes, whatever I do and wherever I go
I'll be thinking of you
And you can be sure I'll always love you
Because you're the best mama in the whole world
I'm your little boy, I'm your little boy
All my life I shall sing it and new
Even then when your hair will be silvery
'Cause my love is forever for you

Dieu S'il Existe
Dieu S'il Existe
Composer(s): Georges Brassens
Performer(s): Georges Brassens
Au ciel de qui se moque-t-on?
Était-ce utile qu'un orage
Vînt au pays de Jeanneton
Mettre à mal son beau pâturage?
Pour ses brebis, pour ses moutons
Plus une plante fourragère
Rien d'épargné que le chardon!
Dieu, s'il existe, il exagère
Il exagère
Et là-dessus, méchant, glouton
Et pas pour un sou bucolique
Vers le troupeau de Jeanneton
Le loup sortant du bois rapplique
Sans laisser même un rogaton
Tout il croque, tout il digère
Au ciel de qui se moque-t-on?
Dieu, s'il existe, il exagère
Il exagère
Et là-dessus le Corydon
Le promis de la pastourelle
Laquelle allait au grand pardon
Rêver d'amours intemporelles
Au ciel de qui se moque-t-on?
Suivit la cuisse plus légère
Et plus belle d'une goton
Dieu, s'il existe, il exagère
Il exagère
Adieu les prairies, les moutons
Et les beaux jours de la bergère
Au ciel de qui se moque-t-on?
Ferait-on de folles enchères?
Quand il grêle sur le persil
C'est bête et méchant, je suggère
Qu'on en parle au prochain concile
Dieu, s'il existe, il exagère
Il exagère

Are You Being Served, Sir?
Are You Being Served, Sir?
Performer(s): John Inman
(Grace Brothers - Men's Department)
(Mister Humphries - Are you free?)
I'm free!
(Forward please)
(Mind the doors - Oooopps!)
Are you being served, Sir?
I'm Humphries and I'm free
Are you being served, Sir?
What would you like to see?
If you'd like some swimming trunks
We've got them plain or spotty
We've also got some see-through
That really turn your....
(Beachwear!)
Oh, these again
There's plenty 'round the back
And if you'd like a bit of flash
Then try a plastic mac
(Oooopps!)
(Are you being served, Sir?)
I'm Humphries and I'm free
(Are you being served, Sir?)
What would you like to see?
(Going up!)
You'd like a suit, well suit yourself
Our three-piece is first class
I'll find one with tight trousers
That fit well 'round the....
(Kitchenwear!)
Oh, these'll do
I'll take them off the peg
Now hold your breath and brace yourself
Here comes the inside leg
(Oooopps!)
(Are you being served, Sir?)
I'm Humphries and I'm free
(Are you being served, Sir?)
There's no one here but me
Oh, where's me tape measure
I know, I left it in my Fair Isle drawers for safety
No one'd dare go in there
Not without my permission, anyway
Here we are
Hasn't it been a funny day for drying.... manners!
Your loose change, left or right
I must know for the cut
I'll measure you from your ankle
Right up to your....
(Menswear!)
I've one in tweed
Thank heavens, just your size
But first I'd like me hand back
It's trapped between your thighs
(Oooopps!)
(Are you being served, Sir?)
I'm Humphries and I'm free
(Are you being served, Sir?)
There's no one here but me
I'm sorry that this fitting room
Is rather dark and chilly
Just try these on and mind that zip
In case you catch your....
(Sportswear!)
Oh, goodness me
Look, someone's turned the key
And if we're trapped in here all night
I'm Humphries and I'm....
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(He's Humphries and he's free)
Got a kettle somewhere
We could have a nice cup of tea
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(What would you like to see?)
I could steam your hat for you
Your brim is a bit loose
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(He's Humphries and he's free)
I would shout for help
But I've got laryngitis
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(What would you like to see?)
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(He's Humphries and he's free)
Aren't you the umbrella and shoes
That came in last week
(Are you being served, Sir?)
(What would you like to see?) ...

Dieu Seul
Dieu Seul
((English Version: Love Me Forever (Marion Ryan))
Composer(s): Gary Lynes - Beverly Guthrie - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Dalida
Dieu seul
Pourrait me dire
Quand tout, quand tout semble fini
Pourquoi il veut détruire
Les cœurs qu'ils a unis
Pourquoi
Parmi des milles
C'est toi
Que j'ai trouvé
Pourtant dans la grande île
Il y en avait tant à aimer
Dieu seul
Pourrait me dire
Combien
D'autres aurores
L'amour qui nous déchire
Verra chanter nos corps
Mais Dieu
Sais t-il lui même
La haut
La haut si loin
Pourquoi c'est toi que j'aime
Et que j'aimerai
Jusqu'à la fin

Breaking In A Brand New Broken Heart
Breaking In A Brand New Broken Heart
Composer(s): Howard Greenfield - Neil Sedaka
Performer(s): Connie Francis; The Wilburn Brothers
If my friends should ask for me
Here at home is where I'll be
There's no one I care to see
I'm breakin' in a brand new broken heart
Now the heartaches have begun
There's a job that must be done
I'll have no time for havin' fun
I'm breakin' in a brand new broken heart
Oh, leave me alone, and let me cry, cry, cry
There are tears that must be cried
Till there are no more tears inside
Let me take a count of ten
Then I'll bounce right back again
Let me be alone till then
I'm breakin' in a brand new broken heart
I'm breakin' in a brand new broken heart

Dieu Fumeur De Havanes
Dieu Fumeur De Havanes
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg; Catherine Deneuve
Dieu est un fumeur de havanes
Je vois ses nuages gris
Je sais qu'il fume même la nuit
Comme moi ma chérie
Tu n'es qu'un fumeur de gitanes
Je vois tes volutes bleues
Me faire parfois venir les larmes aux yeux
Tu es mon maître après Dieu
Dieu est un fumeur de havanes
C'est lui-même qui m'a dit
Que la fumée envoie au paradis
Je le sais ma chérie
Tu n'es qu'un fumeur de gitanes
Sans elles tu es malheureux
Au clair de ma lune, ouvre les yeux
Pour l'amour de Dieu
Dieu est un fumeur de havanes
Tout près de toi, loin de lui
J'aimerais te garder toute ma vie
Comprends-moi ma chérie
Tu n'es qu'un fumeur de gitanes
Et la dernière je veux
La voir briller au fond de mes yeux
Aime-moi nom de Dieu
Dieu est un fumeur de havanes
Tout près de toi, loin de lui
J'aimerais te garder toute ma vie
Comprends-moi ma chérie
Tu n'es qu'un fumeur de gitanes
Et la dernière je veux
La voir briller au fond de mes yeux
Aime-moi nom de Dieu

Are You A Dream?
Are You A Dream?
Composer(s): Peggy Lee
Performer(s): Alan Young
Are you a dream, or was it really you?
Were we really here, did my dream come true?
I can’t be happy now, till you belong to me
Why did you fade away?
Never my love to be
Was I awake, I can’t believe it’s true?
But once long ago you were the love I knew
Can it be possible you’ve gone away?
Or were you a dream I dreamed one day?
You touched me, I felt your touch
You must be real, I care so much
Come back to me, tell me it’s true
Tell me you’re not a dream, tell me it’s you

Diese Welt Ist Ein Jahrmarkt
Diese Welt Ist Ein Jahrmarkt
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Diese Welt ist ein Jahrmarkt, nur ein lärmender Jahrmarkt
du darfst ruhig mal weinen, in der Maske stört's keinen
Ob es leicht oder schwer ist, Tasche voll oder leer ist
muß der Seiltänzer schweben auf dem Jahrmarkt des Lebens
Du bist ins Licht gesprungen mit einem Hoffnungsschrei
doch rasch ist er verklungen, die Kindheit schon vorbei
Dann heißt es überleben, an Ketten jeden Traum
wenn sie den Vorhang heben, verbeugst du dich als Clown
Diese Welt ist ein Jahrmarkt...
Du möchtest selber denken, und mußt doch bald erleben
die Dummheit wird dich lenken und dir das Stichwort geben
Ein Hampelmann an Fäden, so tanzt du auf und nieder
und wiederholst die Reden der andern immer wieder
Diese Welt ist ein Jahrmarkt...
La, la, la...

Twilight (BZN)
Twilight
Performer(s): BZN
I will pass the time of day
With you and drift away
Carry me on winds of time
My rhymes will fade away
Silently her tears were falling
Like a pouring rain
Still she comes to me in colours
Is it all in vain?
In the twilight of my days
When I confess my sins
I feel guilty when they say
Forever I'm to blame
Someday we will be together
If you want it too
Time has come to ease the pain
When I was losing you
Someday we will be together
If you want it too
Time has come to ease the pain
When I was losing you
In the twilight of my days
When I confess my sins
I feel guilty when they say
Forever I'm to blame
Someday we will be together
If you want it too
Time has come to ease the pain
When I was losing you
Someday we will be together
If you want it too
Time has come to ease the pain
When I was losing you

Diep in m'n hart
Kan ik nooit boos zijn op jou
Blijf ik je toch altijd trouw
Dat mag je heus wel weten
Diep in m'n hart
Is er slechts één dat ben jij
Jij bent toch alles voor mij
Zal je dat nooit vergeten
Want jij bent heus niet slecht
Wat ook een ander zegt
Lieveling, denk toch eens aan
Saam door het leven te gaan
'k Heb dan jouw liefde voortaan
Diep in m'n hart
Diep in m'n hart
Kan ik nooit boos zijn op jou
Blijf ik je toch altijd trouw
Dat mag je heus wel weten
Diep in m'n hart
Is er slechts één dat ben jij
Jij bent toch alles voor mij
Zal je dat nooit vergeten
Want jij bent heus niet slecht
Wat ook een ander zegt
Lieveling, denk toch eens aan
Saam door het leven te gaan
'k Heb dan jouw liefde voortaan

Are We Dreamin' The Same Dream?
Are We Dreamin' The Same Dream?
Composer(s): Billy Burnette - Johnny Christopher
Performer(s): Gary Stewart; Charlie Rich
Are you feelin' the same way
Thinkin' 'bout me everyday?
Do you hurt the way that I do
Baby, I'm in love with you
When I'm sleepin' by myself at night
(Sleepin' alone)
Without you it just don't feel right
Do you know what I mean
Are we dreamin' the same dream?
Knew when I saw you
Deep down in my heart
Everything I'm feeling
Was right there from the start
(I knew it was only)
I knew it was only
(Just a matter of time)
Just a matter of time
(And I'm wonderin')
Now you got me wonderin'
What you've got on your mind
Are you feelin' the same way
Thinkin' 'bout me everyday?
It hurt the way I do
Baby, I'm in love with you
And when I'm sleepin' by myself at night
(Sleepin' alone)
Without you it just don't feel right
(Without you it don't feel right)
Do you know what I mean
Are we dreamin' the same dream?
Knew when I saw you
Deep down in my heart
Everything I'm feeling
Was right there from the start
(I knew it was only)
I knew it was only
(Just a matter of time)
Just a matter of time
(And I'm wonderin')
Now you got me wonderin'
What you've got on your mind
Are you feelin' the same way
Thinkin' 'bout me everyday?
It hurt the way I do
Baby, I'm in love with you
When I'm sleepin' by myself at night
(Sleepin' alone)
Without you it just don't feel right
(Without you it don't feel right)
Do you know what I mean
Are we dreamin' the same dream?

First release by: France Gall - 1981
Covered by multiple other artists
Derrière des barreaux
Pour quelques mots
Qu'il pensait si fort
Dehors il fait chaud
Des milliers d'oiseaux
S'envolent sans effort
Quel est ce pays
Où frappe la nuit
La loi du plus fort?
Diego, libre dans sa tête
Derrière sa fenêtre
S'endort peut-etre...
Et moi qui danse ma vie
Qui chante et qui rit
Je pense à lui
Diego, libre dans sa tête
Derrière sa fenêtre
Déjà mort peut-être...

Dieci Ragazze
Dieci Ragazze
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol
First release by: Lucio Battisti - 1969
Ho visto un uomo che moriva per amore
ne ho visto un altro che più lacrime non ha
Nessun coltello mai
ti può ferir di più
di un grande amore che ti stringe il cuor
Dieci ragazze per me
posson bastare
dieci ragazze per me
voglio dimenticare
capelli biondi d’accarezzare
e labbra rosse sulle quali morire
Dieci ragazze per me
solo per me
Una la voglio perché
sa bene ballare
Una la voglio perché
ancor non sa cosa vuol dir l'amore
Una soltanto perché
ha conosciuto tutti tranne me
Dieci ragazze così
che dicon solo di sì
Vorrei sapere chi ha detto
che non vivo più senza te
Matto
quello è proprio matto perché
forse non sa
che posso averne una per il giorno
una per la sera
però quel matto mi conosce
perché ha detto una cosa vera
Dieci ragazze per me
posson bastare
dieci ragazze per me
voglio dimenticare
capelli biondi d’accarezzare
e labbra rosse sulle quali morire
Dieci ragazze così
che dicon solo di sì
Vorrei sapere chi ha detto
ecc. ecc.
Dieci ragazze per me
dieci ragazze per me
dieci ragazze per me
però io muoio per te
però io muoio per te...

Are There Any More Real Cowboys?
Composer(s): Neil Young
Performer(s): Willie Nelson & Neil Young
N: Are there any more real cowboys
N: Left out in these hills
N: Will the fire hit the iron one more time
N: And will one more dusty pick-up
N: Come rolling down the road
N: With a load of feed before the sun gets high
N: Well, I hope that working cowboy never dies
W: Not the one that's snortin' cocaine
W: When the honky-tonk's all closed
W: But the one that prays for more rain, heaven knows
W: That the good feed brings the money
W: And the money buys the clothes
W: Not the diamond sequins shining on TV
W: But the kind the working cowboy really needs
Both: Are there any more country families
Both: Still working hand in hand
Both: Trying hard to stay together and make a stand
Both: While the rows and rows of houses
Both: Come creepin' up on the land
Both: Where the cattle graze and an old gray barn still stands
Both: Are there any more real cowboys in this land
Both: Are there any more real cowboys in this land

Die Welt Ist Neu
Die Welt Ist Neu

((French Version: Je Suis Heureuse (Mireille Mathieu) - 1982))
Composer(s): Composer(s): David Shire - Carol Conners - M. Kunze
Performer(s): Mireille Mathieu - 1981
So bunt sind die Lichter
und so freundlich die Gesichter
Nichts mehr ist so, wie es war
Die Welt ist neu
Ich seh' Blumen blühen
seh' die weißen Wolken ziehen
Jeder Tag ist hell und klar
Die Welt ist neu
Ich kam aus der Nacht
du warst der Tag
Ich war müd' und schwach
Du machst mich stark
Die Angst ist vorüber
und es drückt mich nichts mehr nieder
Seit du da bist, bin ich frei
Die Welt ist neu
Staunend merke ich, die Welt ist neu
Es flüstert der Regen
und der Wind (blaßt?) mir entgegen
Und die Sonne streichelt mich
Die Welt ist neu
Die Straßen sind breiter
und der Himmel so viel weiter
Und was war, vergesse ich
Die Welt ist neu
Ich kam aus der Nacht
du warst der Tag
Ich war müd' und schwach
Du machst mich stark
Ich fühl' mich geborgen
wie an einem Sommermorgen
Seit du da bist, bin ich frei
Die Welt ist neu
Staunend merke ich, die Welt ist neu

Nina, Pretty Ballerina
Nina, Pretty Ballerina
Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus
First release by: Björn & Benny - Agnetha & Frida - 1973
Every day in the morning on her way to the office
You can see as she catches a train
Just a face among a million faces
Just another woman with no name
Not the girl you'd remember but she's still something special
If you knew her I am sure you'd agree
'Cause I know she's got a little secret
Friday evening she turns out to be...
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she's waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
But she knows the fun would go away
If she would play it every day
So she's back every morning to her work at the office
And another week to live in a dream
And another row of early mornings
In an almost never-ending stream
Doesn't talk very often, kind of shy and uncertain
Everybody seems to think she's a bore
But they wouldn't know her little secret
What her Friday night would have in store...
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she's waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play
She would like to play it every day
Nina, pretty ballerina
Now she is the queen of the dancing floor
This is the moment she's waited for
Just like Cinderella
(just like Cinderella)
Nina, pretty ballerina
Who would ever think she could be this way
This is the part that she likes to play ...
