Indication


Indication
Composer(s): Rod Argent
Performer(s): The Zombies
and multiple other artists



It's not that you're wrong, it's just that I am right
I don't want to be tied down every day and every night

Now I've got an indication, I'll-hold-out-against sensation
I know that if I really try, I think I can hold out

If you think you've got me under wrong
You may be right, but I won't be the one to settle down

Now I've got an indication, I'll-hold-out-against sensation
I know that if I really try, I think I can hold out

But if I can't hold out, keep away from you
I can see it happening, I will be with you

If it happens, there's nothin' I can do
I realize that you have won and it's no use to fight

Now I've got an indication, I'll-hold-out-against sensation
I know that if I really try, I think I can hold out

Now I've got an indication, I'll-hold-out-against sensation
I know that if I really try, I think I can hold out

Nessuno Mi Può Giudicare


Nessuno Mi Può Giudicare
Composer(s): Mario Panzeri - Daniele Pace - Micky Del Prete - Luciano Beretta
First release by: Caterina Caselli - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
Versions In Other Languages:
1966 - Baisse Un Peu La Radio (by Dalida)
1974 - Amoureux De Ma Femme (by Richard Anthony)

La verità` mi fa male, lo so...
La verità` mi fa male, lo sai!
Nessuno mi può giudicare, nemmeno tu
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Lo so che ho sbagliato una volta e non sbaglio più
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Dovresti pensare a me
e stare piu` attento a te
C'è` già tanta gente che
ce la su con me, chi lo sa perchè?
Ognuno ha il diritto di vivere come può
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Per questo una cosa mi piace e quell'altra no
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Se sono tornata a te
ti basta sapere che
ho visto la differenza tra lui e te
ed ho scelto te
Se ho sbagliato un giorno ora capisco che
l'ho pagata cara la verità
io ti chiedo scusa, e sai perchè?
Sta di casa qui la felicità
Molto, molto più di prima io t'amerò
in confronto all'altro sei meglio tu
e d'ora in avanti prometto che
quel che ho fatto un dì non farò mai più
Ognuno ha il diritto di vivere come può
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Per questo una cosa mi piace e quell'altra no
(la verità ti fa male, lo so)
Se sono tornata a te
ti basta sapere che
ho visto la differenza tra lui e te
ed ho scelto te
Se ho sbagliato un giorno ora capisco che
l'ho pagata cara la verità,
io ti chiedo scusa, e sai perchè?
Sta di casa qui la felicità
Nessuno mi può giudicare, nemmeno tu!

Indiana Wants Me


Indiana Wants Me
Composer(s): R. Dean Taylor
First release by: R. Dean Taylor - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists



Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

If a man ever needed dying he did
No one had a right to say what he said about you
And it's so cold and lonely here without you
Out there the law is coming
I've been so tired of running

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

It hurts to see the man that I've become
To know I'll never see the morning sunshine on the land
I'll never see your smiling face or touch your hand
If just once more I could see
You, our home and our little baby

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

I hope this letter finds it's way to you
Forgive me love for the shame I've put you through and all the tears
Hang on love to the memories of those happy years
Red lights are flashing around me
Good Lord it looks like they found me

Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there
I wish I had you, to talk to

(Repeat line "Indiana wants me, Lord I can't go back there" over and over with background of "This
is the police. You are surrounded. Give yourself up.")

Nessuno Al Mondo
Composer(s): Art Crafer; Jimmy Nebb
Performer(s): Peppino Di Capri;
Oliver Fonsi; Gran Orquesta; Mina;
Ennio Morricone; Fausto Papetti; Ornella Vanoni



Mai più nessuno al mondo
t'amerà così
perché nessuno al mondo

Nessuno mai saprà
cosa sei per me
ma forse il tuo cuore
sa che vivo per te
Se tu conosci il mondo
tu conosci me
Se tu ti stai perdendo
tienti stretta a me

E' stato un sol destin
che due cuori unì
Mai più nessuno al mondo
t'amerà così

Se tu conosci il mondo
tu conosci me
Se tu ti stai perdendo
tienti stretta a me

E' stato un sol destin
che due cuori unì
Mai più nessuno al mondo
t'amerà così

Indian Wedding


Indian Wedding
Composer(s): Roy Orbison
Performer(s): Roy Orbison



There once was an Indian brave by the name of Yellow Hand
He fell in love with a maiden known as White Sand
They vowed their love would last for ever more
then came the day that they had waited for

Yellow Hand brought her a golden feather
White Sand said a prayer for good weather
the ceremonial dance grew loud and strong
then Yellow Hand began their wedding song

Tonight, Tonight we will be one
we'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sand, come hold my lonely hand

Then they left the warmth of the wedding fire
rode into the hills, climbing higher
and suddenly the snow came swirling down
they were lost, the trail could not be found

Tonight, Tonight we will be one,
we'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sand, come hold my lonely hand

They never returned from paradise
and they went to their places in the skies
and the old ones still say when the snow flakes fly
if you listen close you will hear him cry

Tonight, Tonight we will be one
we'll walk in the land of the midnight sun
Oh White Sand, come hold my lonely hand

Nessuno


Nessuno
Composer(s): Edilio Capotosti; Antoinetta De Simone
Performer(s): Mina;
Peppino Di Capri; Petra Magoni



Nessuno, ti giuro nessuno
nemmeno il destino ci può separare
perché questo amore che il cielo ci dà, sempre vivrà...

Nessuno, ti giuro nessuno
può darmi nel dono di tutta una vita
la gioia infinita che sento con te...solo con te

Sei tu, dolcissimo amore, soltanto tu, passato e
avvenire, tutto il mio mondo comincia da te...
finisce con te...

Nessuno, ti giuro nessuno, nemmeno il destino
ci può separare, perché questo amore
s'illuminerà d'eternità...

Indian Summer (Tommy Dorsey)


Indian Summer
Composer(s): Al Dubin; Victor Herbert
Performer(s): Tommy Dorsey



Summer, you old Indian Summer
You're the tear that comes after June time's laughter
You see so many dreams that don't come true
Dreams we fashioned when Summertime was new
You are here to watch over
Some heart that is broken
By a word that somebody left unspoken
You're the ghost of a romance in June going astray
Fading too soon, that's why I say
"Farewell to you Indian Summer"

Nessun Dorma


Nessun Dorma
Composer(s): Giacomo Pucini; Turandot
Performer(s): Luciano Pavarotti;
and various other artists



Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma!
Tu pure, o, Principessa,
nella tua fredda stanza,
guardi le stelle
che fremono d'amore
e di speranza.

Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me
il nome mio nessun sapra!
No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diro
quando la luce splendera!

Ed il mio bacio sciogliera il silenzio
che ti fa mia!

(Il nome suo nessun sapra!...
e noi dovrem, ahime, morir!)

Dilegua, o notte!
Tramontate, stelle!
Tramontate, stelle!
All'alba vincero!
vincero, vincero!

Indian Summer (Roy Orbison)


Indian Summer
Composer(s): Larry Gatlin
Performer(s): Roy Orbison



Sun has descended, faded above
summer has ended, ended our love
Whispering shadows sigh
It's time that we said goodbye
It's Indian Summer, the leaves are beginning to fall
It's Indian Summer, and that means the end of it all
We wandered through clover, we reached for the moon
and now it's all over, so soon, so soon
The Sun fades away in the west
The swallows are ready to start
The last one is leaving his nest
The way that you're leaving my heart
I just can't believe we're though
I just can't believe it of you
Is Indian Summer my winter of love?

Nessun Dolore


Nessun Dolore
Composer(s): Lucia Battisti; Mogol
Performer(s): Lucio Battisti;
Car-men; Giorgia; Mina



Tu mi sembri un po' stupita, perché rimango qui indifferente
come se tu non avessi parlato, quasi come se tu
non avessi detto niente
ti sei innamorata, cosa c'è
cosa c'è che non va, io dovrei perciò soffrire da adesso
per ragioni ovvie di orgoglio e di sesso
e invece niente no, non sento niente no
nessun dolore non c'è tensione
non c'è emozione, nessun dolore, no
oh! oh! oh!
quando eri indecisa combattuta fra l'abbracciare
me o la vita ti ricordi i miei silenzi pesanti
che tu credevi gelosia per inesistenti amanti
allora già intuivo che c'era qualcosa che mi sfuggiva
quella fragile eterea coerenza di bambino senza troppa pazienza
non sento niente no, adesso niente no
nessun dolore, non c'è tensione
non c'è emozione, nessun dolore
nessun dolore, non c'è tensione
non c'è emozione, nessun dolore
il vetro non è rotto da un sasso, ma dal braccio
esperto di un ingenuo gradasso, l'applauso per
sentirsi importante, senza domandarsi per quale gente
tutte le occhiate maliziose che davi
eran semi sparsi al vento qualcosa che perdevi
e mi inaridivi e mi inaridivi e mi inaridivi
non sento niente no, adesso niente no
nessun dolore, non c'è tensione
non c'è emozione, nessun dolore
nessun dolore, non c'è tensione
non c'è emozione, nessun dolore

Indian Song


Indian Song
Composer(s): Hoyt Axton
Performer(s): Hoyt Axton



First came the wagons, then came the trains
They drove the Indians off of the plains
Then came the white man with his fences an' sheep
Tore up the ground where the Great Spirit sleeps

My Grandfather Borin was a North Texas man
He was a cowboy, he loved the land
He fathered nine children an' he raised six more
And his Daddy fought in our first Civil War

My Grandmother Axton was part Cherokee
She kept it a secret from Daddy an' me
For someone had told her in her early childhood
"You better not mention your Indian blood"

Washington Bureau of Indian Affairs
Yeah, the white man loves money, he didn't care
About starving people an' dying came slow
Now they have all followed the wild buffalo

Nervous Shakedown


Nervous Shakedown
Composer(s): Brian Johnson; Angus Young; Malcolm Young
Performer(s): AC/DC



"Freeze", said the man cruisin' the beat
"You get your hands up and spread your feet"
"Don't you move an inch", I heard him say
"Or you'll be doin' time until the judgement day"
And he said, "Don't tell me no lies, give me alibis
'Cause if you cross my path, you'll be doin' life"
It's a dirty lie

Chorus:
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
A nervous shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown
And it's a nervous shakedown
We got a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown

(It's more like a set-up)

"Take a dime", said the man, "you can make one call
You got a one-way ticket to the County Hall"
Well, the judge looked high and I looked low
And when he smiled at me it was a one-man show
He said, "Two to five, the jury decides
Double parole if you survive"
It's a dirty lie

Chorus

Law is gonna get you this time
And throw away the key

Chorus

Shake you down, shake you down
And it's another shakedown
Well it's a shakedown
Another nervous shakedown
Shake you down, shake you down
And it's a nervous shakedown
It's a shakedown

It's a shakedown on - you, yes

Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
When I'm calling you

Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo

That means I offer my life to you to be my own
If you refuse me I will be blue, waiting all alone

But if when you hear my love call ringing clear
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
And I hear your answering echo so dear
Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo, Oo-Oo-Oo-Oo
Then I will know our love will become true
You'll belong to me and I'll belong to you

Then I will know our love will become true
You'll belong to me and I'll belong to you

Nervous Breakdown


Nervous Breakdown
Composer(s): Mario Roccuzzo
Performer(s): Eddie Cochran;
and various other artists



Chorus:
I'm a-havin' a nervous breakdown
A mental shakedown
See my hands, how they shiver
See my knees, how they quiver
My whole body's in a jitter
I'm a-havin' a nervous breakdown

Well, I went to see my doctor just the other day
And I've got to tell you what the man had to say
Well, he said, "Hey, boy, you just gotta slow down
You can't keep a-traipsin' all over town
After givin' you a physical check
I've come to the conclusion you're a total wreck"

(chorus)

I've made up my mind I'd better change my ways
My shattered nerves have seen better days
No more girls for a week or 2
No more runnin' 'round with the usual crew
No more movies or stayin' out late
My baby have to find herself another date

(chorus)

Indian Lake


Indian Lake

Performer(s): The Cowsills
and multiple other artists



You take a bus marked "Lakewood Drive"
And you keep on drivin' till you're out of the city
Where the air is fine with the sweet smellin pine
And the countryside's pretty
And you'll see daffodils peepin over
The hills or a honey lovin' mama bear

You take a left at the bridge
Go down to Quakerforn Ridge
And in a minute you're there
(dupe do be do do do )

Indian Lake is a scene
You should make with your little one
Keep it in mind if you're lookin to find
A place in the summer sun
Swim in the cove have a snack in the grove
Or you can rent a canoe at Indian Lake
You'll be able to make the way the Indians do

Neptune's Daughter


Neptune's Daughter
Performer(s): Grant Clarke & Jean Schwartz



Down by the seaside
Where waves were rolling
A boy went strolling
Moonlight night
He was watching the fish play
That very evening, beside the water
Sat Neptune's daughter
When he spied her pretty face he cried

Lovely little Neptune's daughter
Living underneath the water
I love you, Yes I do
You seem to me, to be lonely
When the moon begins to glimmer
If I were a deep sea swimmer
Then I'd go down below
My little queen of the sea

Once he went fishing
Where waves were rolling
He started strolling, hours went by
Then the shadows began to fall
His heart was lonely
He sat there thinking
The sun was sinking
From the blue there came a voice he knew

Lovely little Neptune's daughter
Living underneath the water
I love you, yes I do
You seem to me to be lonely
When the moon begins to glimmer
If I were a deep sea swimmer
Then I'd go down below
My little queen of the sea

I can still remember it wasn't long ago
Things you used to tell me

Oh, yeh

Neon Rainbow


Neon Rainbow
Composer(s): Wayne Thompson
Performer(s): The Box Tops;
Petula Clark; Queen Anne's Lace



The city lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with electric faces
What they find the glow erases
What they've lose the glow replaces, and life is love

In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

Moving lights, flashing sights
Blinking faster than your mind
Leading people with suggestions
Leaving no unanswered questions
You can live without direction
And if don't have to be perfection, and life is love

In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

But in the daytime everything changes
Nothing remains the same, no one smiles anymore
Ad no one willopen his door
Until the night time comes, and then the ...

City lights, the pretty lights
They can warm the coldest nights
All the people going places
Smiling with the electric faces
What they find the glow erases
And what they lose the glow replaces, and life is love
In a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow, a neon rainbow

India, India


India, India
Performer(s): John Lennon



Take me to your heart
Reveal your ancient mysteries to me
I’m searching for an answer
That’s somewhere deep inside
I know I’ll never find it here
It’s already in my mind
I’ve got to follow my heart
Wherever it takes me
I’ve got to follow my heart
Whenever it calls to me
I’ve got to follow my heart
And my heart is going home
Om

India, India
Listen to my plea
I sit here at your feet so patiently
I’m waiting by the river
But somewhere in my mind
I left my heart in England
With the girl I left behind
I’ve got to follow my heart
Wherever it takes me
I’ve got to follow my heart
Whenever it calls to me
I’ve got to follow my heart
And my heart is going home
India ah

Neon Magic


Neon Magic
Composer(s): Andrew Latimer; Jan Schelhaas; Viv McAuliffe
Performer(s): Camel



Neon magic, a playground for the noise
Got the boys feeling tough, acting rough
Looking for trouble?
You better mind your tongue
Having fun much too much
Chasing cars, hit and run

They try their hardest
To stand out in the crowd, talking loud
Neon girls carrousels
Show off their colours
For some local fame
That's the name (of their) game
Acting cool, out of school
You're the same
