Les Choses De L'amour
Les Choses De L'amour
((Italian & Spanish Versions: Credo Nell'amore (by Dalida); Las Cosas Del Amor (by Dalida))
Composer(s): Chris Michaelessi - Paul de Senneville
Performer(s): Dalida
Un rendez-vous d'avril au bord de la tamise
Et deux cœurs qui s'allument soudain au coin du jour
Partir le soir ensemble pour découvrir Venise
Et retrouver Paris en découvrant l'amour
Dîner sans ce presser le cœur au fond des yeux
Et marcher sous la pluie ne sachant pas qu'il pleut
Revoir un film d'amour qui nous ressemble un peu
Et ce serre la main quand ils se disent adieux
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours
Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour
Le café du matin posé au coin du lit
Et qu'il faut réchauffer parce qu'il c'est refroidit
Le train ou tu t'en va pour la première fois
Le quai ou tu reviens et je ne vois que toi
Te rendre un peu jaloux et rire de tes colères
Qui me rassure surtout quand il fait froid l'hiver
Claquer la porte soudain pour ce défaire de nous
Ce quitter pour un rien ce retrouver pour tous
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours
Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour
Un rendez-vous d'octobre au bord de la tamise
Et deux cœurs se retrouvent dans la nuit qui frissonne
Refaire l'amour ensemble en revoyant Venise
Et n'avoir peur de rien pas même de l'automne
Voir les années qui passe avec la certitude
Que quoi que le temps fasse avec ses habitudes
L'enfant qui te ressemble et qu'on aura demain
Pourra nous continuer jusqu'au dernier matin
Voilà, les mots les gestes qui font nos nuits nos jours
Les souvenirs qui reste des choses de l'amour

Beautiful Thing (Henry Kapono)
Beautiful Thing
Composer(s): Henry Kapono
Performer(s): Henry Kapono
I feel so lonely
I feel so empty inside
Just tell me one thing
Is this what love is like?
All I wanted was a beautiful thing
All I wanted was the love we had
All I wanted was you in my life
All I wanted was you in my life
She stole my thunder
She took my breath away
Now I sit and I wonder
Will I ever see her again?
All I wanted was a beautiful thing
All I wanted was the love we had
All I wanted was you in my life
All I wanted was you in my life

Las Ciudades
Las Ciudades
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): Lola Beltrán
and multiple other artists
Te vi llegar y sentí la presencia
de un ser desconocido
te vi llegar y sentí lo que nunca
jamas había sentido
Te quise amar y tu amor
no era fuego no era lumbre
las distancias apartan las ciudades
las ciudades destruyen las costumbres
Te dije adios y pediste que nunca
que nunca te olvidara
te dije adios y senti de tu amor
otra vez la puerta extraña
Y mi alma completa
se me cubrio de hielo
y mi cuerpo entero
se lleno de frío
y estube apunto de cambiar tu mundo
de cambiar tu mundo por el mundo mío
Te vi llegar y sentí la presencia
de un ser desconocido
te vi llegar y sentí lo que nunca
jamas había sentido
Te quise amar y tu amor
no era fuego no era lumbre
las distancias apartan las ciudades
las ciudades destruyen las costumbres

Beautiful Thing (The Hawks)
Beautiful Thing
Composer(s): Richard Manuel - Rick Danko
First recording by: The Hawks - 1967
I've told you once, now you should know
The reason that I'm coming down
There ain't no time to repeat again
Just need to bring it around
We had a beautiful thing going
You couldn't see things my way
We had a beautiful thing going
Something just got in our way
And I told you once that it was rough
I looked on you as my friend
Because that did not seem to be good enough
And now it's time to begin
We've got a beautiful thing going
I hope that's the way it will stay
We've got a beautiful thing going
Nothing can stand in our way

Las Cartas De Laura
Las Cartas De Laura
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Zas
Son tan breves las cartas de Laura
desde París escribe, Laura
Se fue con la intención
de crecer sin mutilación
Nada que recordar
nadie para ver
y aunque se porte mal
no hay por qué temer
Conozco tus estados, Laura
ya no firmas las cartas, Laura
Si perdiste el control
y las cosas se ponen peor
tiempo para pedir
y tiempo para dar
tiempo para servir
y más para luchar
Y yo soy el que te espera
como a nadie esperé
Laura de cualquier manera
primero apaga tu sed
Ya que lo soñaste todo, Laura
alguna vez me lo vas a contar
si queda algo en tu interior
que por vergüenza o por pudor
No me queres decir
es mejor guardar
pensá que también aquí
hay tanto o más que ocultar
Y yo soy el que te espera
como a nadie esperé
Laura de cualquier manera
primero apaga tu sed
Y yo soy el que te espera
como a nadie esperé
Laura de cualquier manera
primero apaga tu sed

Beautiful Strange
Beautiful Strange
Performer(s): Prince
Strangely beautiful
Beautiful strange
That's what we said
Instead of the name
If you count the times
He took all the blame
You would find the reason
Behind the game
In the darkness
We must look for the way
Words so strange
That only the mind can say
If it makes no mind
What color or holy day
Why is this game
The only one that we play
Dive inside your soul if you wanna know
The light inside the darkness forever glows
The son is like the diamond inside the coal
And like an embryo it grows and grows

Las Alturas De Machu Picchu
Las Alturas De Machu Picchu
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Tu voz alguien la calló
tu honor, la espada, humilló
igual que a un cóndor preso
así, se te encarceló
Servir al conquistador
creer en su mismo dios
vivir sin tus raíces
así, se te condenó
Sube a buscar, sube a buscar, aquí, libertad
sube a encontrar, sube a encontrar, aquí, tu verdad
las alturas de Machu Picchu nadie llegó a conquistar
las alturas de Machu Picchu nadie llegó a conquistar
Aquí, adoraste al sol
aquí, se acató tu ley
aquí, no fuiste esclavo
aquí, siempre fuiste rey
Sube a nacer, sube a nacer, aquí, otra vez
sube a aprender, sube a aprender, aquí, otra vez
las alturas de Machu Picchu guardan la luz de tu ayer
las alturas de Machu Picchu guardan la luz de tu ayer
... Y el indio llora y al rezar
mira al sol, mira al sol
y se pregunta sin cesar
si su dios le olvidó
Sube a buscar, sube a buscar, aquí, libertad
sube a encontrar, sube a encontrar, aquí, tu verdad
las alturas de Machu Picchu nadie llegó a conquistar
Sube a nacer, sube a nacer, aquí, otra vez
las alturas de Machu Picchu guardan la luz de tu ayer
las alturas de Machu Picchu guardan la luz de tu ayer

Beautiful Queensland
Beautiful Queensland
Performer(s): Slim Dusty
You have all read the wonderful stories
Of the countries far over the sea
From whence came our ancestors
To establish this land of the free
There are some folk who still like to travel
To see what they have over there
But when they go look, it's not like the book
And they find there is none to compare
With beautiful, beautiful Queensland
Out where the wild flowers grow (flowers grow)
We're proud of our beautiful climate
Where we never see ice or snow
You can live on the plains or the mountains
Or down where the sea breezes blow
And you're still in beautiful Queensland
The most wonderful state that I know
An old timer called the ?...............?
And the fiddle was playing three quarter
I held your hand with a new wedding band
While Nelly sang Alan Water
And even now when we're older dear
I still hold a sweet memory
Of our wedding ball and the bridal waltz
They played for you and me

Las Acacias
Las Acacias
Composer(s): Jorge Molina
Performer(s): Silva Y Villalba
and multiple other artists
Ya no vive nadie en ella
A la orilla del camino silenciosa está la casa
Se diría que sus puertas se cerraron para siempre
Se cerraron para siempre sus ventanas
Gime el viento en los aleros
Desmoronándose las tapias
Y en sus piedras cabecean
Combatidas por el viento
¡Ay! que viento, las acacias
Combatidas por el viento las acacias
Dolorido ¡ay! dolorido
Fatigado de este viaje
Tan largo viaje que es la vida
He pasado por las puertas de mi estancia
Y una historia a mí me contaron las acacias
Todo ha muerto, la alegría y el bullicio
Los que fueron la alegría y el calor de aquella casa
Unos muertos, muertos y otros vivos, vivos
Que tenían muy muerta el alma
Se marcharon para siempre de esta casa

Beautiful People
Beautiful People
Composer(s): Kenny O'Dell
First release by: Kenny O'Dell - 1967
You've just got to be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true - it's true - it's true
And I love you
You're so easy to make conversation with
And nobody else can please me that way
No one can say that you're a wallflower
Cause you've always got something groovy to say
You've just got to be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true - it's true - it's true
And I love you
Talk about a girl with a sweet disposition
You oughta have a room full of ribbons
And wear 'em in your hair
every day of the week for me
People turn around they know we're the happiest
People today in this whole town
And it's no wonder that they kinda wonder
If we're not the grooviest couple around
You've just got to be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true - it's true - it's true
And I love you
You've just got to be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true - it's true - it's true
I love you
I do - I do - I do
Mmmm - I love ya
You've just got to be one of the most
Beautiful people in the whole wide world
It's true - it's true - it's true
And I love you

L'artiste
L'artiste
Composer(s): J.P. Calvet - C. Level
Performer(s): Annie Cordy
Les jours de la s'maine
Et tous les week ends
Sur toutes les scènes
J'existe
Je fais des claquettes
Je fais des pirouettes
Et des galipettes
En piste
Un jour j'ai choisi
Le rire à tout prix
Et j'ai toujours pris
Mes risques
Je fais de mon mieux
Mes sauts périlleux
Je suis dans vos yeux
L'artiste
Même si j'ai tremblé
Avant mon entrée
Les fameux soirs de première
Devant le rideau
J'ai un numéro
Toujours rigolo
Pour plaire
Je dois ressembler
À la blonde dorée
Qui sourit sur mes affiches
Le rire aux éclats
C'est dans mon contrat
Tant pis si l'artiste
Est triste
Ma vie, mes amours
Passeront toujours
En supplément au programme
J'n'en demande pas plus
Je suis un gugusse
Bien avant d'être une femme
Mais ne croyez pas
Que j'ai malgré ça
Une vie meilleure ou pire
J'aime ce que je fais
Et je ne donnerais
Pas ma place pour
Un empire même si parfois
ma maison, mon chien
les fleurs du jardin
me manquent
c'est que j'ai choisi
de risquer ma vie
sur le fil des saltimbanques.
Mais vous êtes là
Ce soir c'est gala
Qui a dit que j'étais triste
Mesdames et messieurs
C'était pas sérieux
Un p'tit bravo pour l'artiste!

Beautiful Pea Green Boat
Beautiful Pea Green Boat
Composer(s): Laurie Anderson - Edwin Lear
Performer(s): Laurie Anderson
I'm lying in the shade of my family tree
I'm a branch that broke off
What will become of me?
Dear Mom, I'm lying here in this queen-sized bed
I'm thinking back
To all the stories you read to me
About the little animals who went to sea
In their beautiful pea green boat
But I can't remember now
What happened then?
Dear Mom, how does it end?
The owl and the pussycat went to sea
In a beautiful pea green boat
They took some honey and lots of money
Wrapped in a five pound note
The owl looked up to the stars above
And sang to a small guitar
O lovely pussy! Pussy my love!
What a wonderful pussy you are
Let us be married
Too long we've tarried
But what shall we do for a ring?
What shall we do for a ring?
Hey! Hey!
They sailed away for a year and a day
To the land where the bong tree grows
And there in a wood a piggy wig stood
A ring at the end of his nose
A ring at the end of his nose
And hand in hand at the edge of the sand
They danced by the light of the
By the light of the, by the light of the moon
And hand in hand at the edge of the sand
They danced by the light of the
By the light of the, by the light of the moon
The moon, the moon
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!

Performer(s): Peggy Lee
and multiple other artists
Laroo laroo lilli bolero
That's a magic sayin'
That I heard one day in Napoli
When a fortune teller
In a dim lit cellar said to me
"You say laroo lilli bolero
And just like that quick as an arrow
You'll find the boy who's meant for you"
and sure enough it all came true
Laroo laroo lilli bolero

Beautiful Noise
Beautiful Noise
Composer(s): Neil Diamond
Performer(s): Neil Diamond
and multiple other artists
What a beautiful noise
Comin' up from the street
Got a beautiful sound
It's got a beautiful beat
It's a beautiful noise
Goin' on everywhere
Like the clickety-clack
Of a train on a track
It's got a rhytm to spare
It's a beautiful noise
And it's a sound that I love
And it fits me as well
As a hand in a glove
Yes it does, yes it does
What a beautiful noise
Comin' up from the park
It's the song of this kids
And it plays until dark
It's the song of the cars
On their furious flights
But there's even romance
In the way that they dance
To the beat of the lights
It's a beautiful noise
And it's a sound that I love
And ist makes me feel good
Like a hand in a glove
Yes it does, yes it does
What a beautiful noise
It's a beautiful noise
Made of joy and of strife
Like a symphony played
By the passing parade
It's the music of life
What a beautiful noise
Comin' into my room
And it's beggin' for me
Just to give it a tune

L'arlecchino Gitano
L'arlecchino Gitano
((French & German Versions: L'arlequin De Tolède (by Dalida); Komm, Senorita, Komm (by Dalida))
Composer(s): Ardiente - Hubert Giraud - Jean Dréjac
Performer(s): Dalida
Quando un vibrar di chitarra
Accorata e bizzarra
Nasce cercando la luna
Che risplende serena
Un arlecchino gitano
Arriva da lontano
E canta la serenata
Ai segni di Granata
E' primavera là nell'Estramadura
Sboccia la gioventù che pero non dura
Triste l'autunno già viene con la sera
Meglio percio baciar ogni bocca che puoi trovar
Quell'Arlecchino gitano
Che arrivo da lontano
Desta un vibrar di chitarra
Accorata e bizzarra
E sotto un raggio di luna
Rivede Colombina
Che ascolta la sereneta
Nel cielo di Granata
E'primavera là nell'Estramadura
Lei lo lascio perchè mai l'amore dura
E quando lo bacio non fu mai sincera
Meglio dimenticar alla bianca luna cantar
Quando un vibrar di chitarra
Accorata e bizzarra
Nasce cercando la luna
Che risplende serena
Un arlecchino gitano
Arriva da lontano
E canta la serenata
Ai sogni di Granata
E' primavera ancor nell'Estramadura
Egli ha vent'anni in cuor e non si dipera
Certo una bocca ancor troverà sincera
Che gli farà scordar chi lo volle un giorno lasciar

Beautiful Morning Glory
Beautiful Morning Glory
Composer(s): T. Texas Tyler
Performer(s): T. Texas Tyler
Beautiful morning glory kissed and caressed by the dew
Beautiful morning glory good morning glory to you
I've traveled all over the country I seldom sleep in a bed
When my feet get tired of walking I simply stand on my (head)
Beautiful morning glory...
I stopped at a house for a handout I didn't go there to beg
And I'd jumped the great big ol' bulldog and took her bite out off my (leg)
Beautiful morning glory...
I once had a bald headed girl friend I knocked her wig off at a dance
And when I stooped over to get it she kicked me right in my (ass)
Beautiful morning glory...
Good morning glory to you

L'arlequin De Tolède
((German & Italian Versions: Komm, Senorita, Komm (by Dalida); L'arlecchino Gitano (by Dalida))
Composer(s): Hubert Giraud - Jean Dréjac
Performer(s): Dalida
Une rose à sa guitare peuplée d'accords bizarres
Le blanc d'un rayon de lune jouant sur sa peau brune
Un Arlequin de Tolède passe dans la nuit tiède
Il chante la sérénade des amants de Grenade
Hier c'était le printemps dans l'Estrémadure
Hier il avait vingt ans mais cela ne dure
Que le temps d'un instant car la vie est dure
Pour les jeunes amants qui veulent croire aux serments
Et l'Arlequin de Tolède perdu dans la nuit tiède
En caressant sa guitare trouve un accord bizarre
Un écho de mandoline il revoit Colombine
Vibrante à la sérénade d'un Pierrot de Grenade
Hier c'était le printemps dans l'Estrémadure
Hier c'était lui l'amant mais cela ne dure
Que le temps d'un serment d'un je te le jure
Avec cette leçon il a fait une chanson
Une rose à sa guitare peuplée d'accords bizarres
Un Arlequin de Tolède perdu dans la nuit tiède
Entend sous la lune blonde tous les amants du monde
Qui chantent la sérénade des amants de Grenade
Hier c'était le printemps dans l'Estrémadure
Hier il avait vingt ans mais cela ne dure
Que le temps d'un instant pour une âme dure
Aujourd'hui c'est l'été et vive la liberté
