Quiet Storm
Quiet Storm
Composer(s): Rose Ella Jones; Smokey Robinson)
Performer(s): Smokey Robinson; CrossTown;
Johnny Hammond; Chip Shelton;
Gerald Veasley; Mobb Deep
Soft & warm, a quiet storm
Quiet as when flowers talk at break of dawn, break of dawn
A power source of tender force
Generatin', radiatin', turn me on, turn me on
Ah you short-circuit all my nerves
Promisin' electric things
You touch me & suddenly there's rainbow rings
Quiet storm blowin' through my life, uh huh
Quiet storm blowin' through my life, ah
Blow, baby
A windy sigh, weak am I
Butterfly caught up in the hurricane, hurricane
Lucky me, I'm barely free
Suddenly I'm caught up in your somber rain
Ah shower me with your sweet love
I will bathe in every drop through all the seasons
Let it pour & never stop
Quiet storm blowin' through my life, through my life
You're just like a
Quiet storm blowin' through my life
(instrumental)
Ah shower me with your sweet love
I will bathe in every drop through all the seasons
Let it pour & never stop
Quiet storm blowin' through my life, through my life
You're just like a
Quiet storm blowin' through my life
Blow, baby

J'ai Vu Maman Embrasser Le Père Noël
J’ai Vu Maman Embrasser Le Père Noël
((Adapted from: I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus - 1952 (aka I Saw Daddy Kissing Santa Claus - 1997))
Composer(s): Tommie Connor; Geo Koger; Loulou Gasté
Performer(s): Line Renaud - 1956
Moi, jai vu petite maman hier soir
En train dembrasser le Père Noël
Ils étaient sous le gui et me croyaient endormi
Mais sans en avoir lair, javais les deux yeux entrouverts
Ha! Si papa était venu à passer
Je me demande ce quil aurait pensé
Aurait-il trouvé naturel
Parce quil descend du ciel
Que maman embrasse le Père Noël
Moi, jai vu petite maman hier soir
En train dembrasser le Père Noël
Jai bien cherché pourquoi et jai deviné, je crois
Cest parce quil mavait apporté de si beaux jouets
Aussi, pour lan prochain jai bon espoir
Quil viendra encore à mon appel
Et de nouveau je ferai semblant
De dormir profondément
Si maman embrasse le Père Noël
Et de nouveau je ferai semblant
De dormir profondément
Si maman embrasse le Père Noël

Performer(s): Les Baxter;
and various other artists
Alone in my quiet village I pray
You will be returning one day
To me
Return to me
Alone living with the mem'ry of you

Be true to me
Above me there's a moon on fire
Telling you to love me as I desire
And ever the flame in my quiet village will burn
Darling till the day you return to me
Return to me, return to me

Sharkey's Day
Sharkey's Day
Composer(s): Laurie Anderson
Performer(s): Laurie Anderson
Sun's coming up
Like a big bald head
Poking up over the grocery store
It's Sharkey's day
It's Sharkey's day today
Sharkey wakes up and Sharkey says
There was this man...
And there was this road...
And if only I could remember these dreams...
I know they're trying to tell me...something.
Ooooeee
Strange dreams (Strange dreams)
Oh yeah
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again
And it's love
Oh yeah
Strange dreams
And the little girls sing
Oooee Sharkey
And the manager says
Mr. Sharkey? He's not at his desk right now
Could I take a message?
And the little girls sing
Oooeee Sharkey
He's Mister Heartbreak
They sing
Oooeee Sharkey
Yeah
He's Mister Heartbreak
And Sharkey says
All of nature talks to me
If I could just figure out what it was trying to tell me
Listen!
Trees are swinging in the breeze
They're talking to me
Insects are rubbing their legs together
They're all talking
They're talking to me
And short animals
They're bucking up on their hind legs
Talking
Talking to me
Hey! Look out! Bugs are crawling up my legs!
You know? I'd rather see this on TV
Tones it down
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
And Sharkey says
All night long I think of those little planes up there
Flying around
You can't even see them
They're specks!
And they're full of tiny people
Going places
And Sharkey says
You know? I bet they could all land on the head of a pin
And the little girls sing
Ooooeee
Sharkey!
He's Mister Heartbreak
They sing
Oooeee
That Sharkey!
He's a slow dance on the edge of the lake
He's a whole landscape gone to seed
He's gone wild!
He's screeching tires on an oil slick at midnight on the road to Boston a long time ago
And Sharkey says
Lights! Camera! Action! Timber!
At the beginning of the movie, they know they have to find each other
But they ride off in opposite directions
Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
You know? They're growing mechanical trees
They grow to their full height
And then they chop themselves down
Sharkey says
All of life comes from some strange lagoon
It rises up, it bucks up to it's full height from a boggy swamp on a foggy night
It creeps into your house
It's life! It's life!
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
Nobody knows me
Nobody knows my name
Deep in the heart of darkest America
Home of the brave
Ha! Ha! Ha! You've already paid for this
Listen to my heart beat
And the little girls sing
Oooeee Sharkey
He's a slow dance on the edge of the lake
They sing
Ooooeeee
Sharkey
He's Mister Heartbreak
Paging Mr. Sharkey
White courtesy telephone please
And Sharkey says
I turn around, it's fear
I turn around again, and it's love
And the little girls sing
Ooooeee Sharkey
Yeah
On top of Old Smokey all covered with snow
That's where I wanna, that's where I'm gonna
That's where I'm gonna go

Qu'il Est Loin L'Amour
Qu'il Est Loin L'Amour
Composer(s): Claude Lemesle; Alain Goraguer
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Qu'il est loin loin loin l'amour
Quand tu marches à sa rencontre
Et qu'il marche à ton secours
Mais à l'autre bout du monde
Qu'il est loin loin loin l'amour
Tout au bout de ce voyage
Parsemé de carrefours
De prénoms et de visages
{Refrain:}
Mon vieux monde joli renom
Quelle blonde est pour ce blond
Quelle brune pour celui-ci
Toi pour l'une, moi pour lui
Mon vieux monde joli renom
Quelle blonde est pour ce blond
Quelle brune pour celui-ci
Toi pour l'une, moi pour lui
Qu'il est loin loin loin l'amour
Et pourtant parfois si proche
Même Rue du Vieux Faubourg
Même immeuble même porche
Qu'il est loin loin loin l'amour
Quand tu t'endors solitaire
Demain est un autre jour
Elle arrive la lumière
{au Refrain, 2x}

Sharing You
Sharing You
Composer(s): Gerry Goffin; Carole King
Performer(s): Bobby Vee; Little Eva; Gene McDaniels
Sharing you, I know I'm sharing you
I'm not the only one who's in your heart
When I'm with you, your love belongs to me
But you have someone else when we're apart
There are two of to kiss you
Two of us to miss you
And two of us to wish there were two of you
And though it hurts me so to go on sharing you
I know my helpless heart just can't be free
But even though I must keep sharing you
You know you'll never be sharin' me
Oh, no, you'll never be sharin' me
Aah, aah, you'll never be sharin' me

Qu'il Était Triste, Cet Anglais
Qu'il Était Triste, Cet Anglais
Composer(s): Louis Poterat; Charles Dumont
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
C'était le décor attendu
D'un bar de la Tamise
Avec son ennui répandu
Comme une fumée grise
Son frisson de journaux froissés
Son tintement de verres
Et les murmures étouffés
De ses clients sévères
Qu'il était triste, cet Anglais
Dont la main du temps n'avait fait
Qu'estomper doucement les traits
De son visage
Tout seul, immobile et muet
Debout près du bar, il buvait
On aurait dit qu'il revenait
D'un long voyage
Quand il eût trop bu, tout à coup
De ses yeux, deux larmes glissèrent
Quelqu'un a dit: "Voilà qu'il est soûl!"
Et puis des secondes passèrent...
Pourtant, moi qui le regardais
Ça me serrait, ça me serrait
Je mêlais à ses pleurs secrets
La terre entière
Car je n'avais pas bien compris
Ce qu'il disait rien que pour lui:
"My beloved stayed in Paris..."
Peut-être avait-il épuisé
Toutes les aventures
Ou traînait-il un cœur usé
Par une vie trop dure
Avait-il le spleen du marin
Pour les terres promises
Ou faisait-il un grand chagrin
D'une simple bêtise?
Qu'il était triste, cet Anglais
Que, chaque soir, je retrouvais
Portant le poids de son secret
Impénétrable
Tout seul, immobile et muet
Debout près du bar, il buvait
Le même jeu recommençait
À chaque table
Certains le guettaient en dessous
Et les larmes les faisaient rire
J'entendais : "Voilà qu'il es soûl!"
C'est tout ce qu'ils trouvaient à dire
Mais quand je m'approche de lui
Il me confia d'un air surpris:
"My beloved stayed in Paris...
Stayed in Paris..."
S'il vous plaît, barman, qu'est-ce qu'il a?
Et le barman me répondit:
"Sa bien-aimée est à Paris...
...morte, peut-être..."
"...my beloved stayed in Paris...
My beloved stayed in Paris...
In Paris... In Paris..."

Qu'il Parle En Premier
Qu'il Parle En Premier
Composer(s): Michel Berger
Performer(s): France Gall & Patrick Bouchitey
Une minute pour dire son être
Toute la vie pour les expliquer
On les prépare, on les répète
Toute la vie pour y repenser
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Je ne saurais pas comment m'y prendre
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Que s'il ne savait pas me comprendre
Une minute, un sourire peut-être
Toute la vie pour vivre au passé
Je crois le voir, le reconnais
Si par hasard je me trompais
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Je ne saurais pas comment m'y prendre
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Que s'il ne savait pas me comprendre
D'ailleurs s'il m'aime qu'il parle en premier
C'est si joli un homme qui parle d'amour
Qu'il vienne le dire et m'embrasser
C'est si joli un homme qui aime d'amour
Patrick : Une minute pour dire ce que je pense
Toute la vie pour l'oublier
Une minute pour dire je t'aime
Toute la vie pour y penser
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Je ne saurais pas comment m'y prendre
Je n'y arriverai jamais
Si elle ne savait pas me comprendre
Une minute pour dire des mots tendres
Toute la vie pour les regretter
Une minute pour ne rien attendre
Toute la vie pour respirer
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Je ne saurais pas comment m'y prendre
Je n'y arriverais jamais
Si elle ne savait pas me comprendre
Mais si elle m'aime qu'elle parle en premier
C'est si joli une femme qui parle d'amour
Qu'elle vienne le dire et m'embrasser
C'est si joli une femme qui aime d'amour
France : D'ailleurs s'il m'aime qu'il parle en premier
C'est si joli un homme qui parle d'amour
Qu'il vienne le dire et m'embrasser
C'est si joli un homme qui aime d'amour

Share The Land
Composer(s): Burton Cummings
Performer(s): The Guess Who; Randy Bachman; Burton Cummings
Have you been around
Have you done your share o' comin' down
On different things that people do
Have you been aware
You got brothers and sisters who care
About what's gonna happen to you in a year from now
Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now
Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now
Did you pay your dues
Did you read the news
This mornin' when the paper landed in your yard
Do you know their names
Can you play their games
Without losin' track and comin' down a bit too hard
Oh!
Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now
Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now
Mmm, maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
I'm talkin' 'bout together now
Maybe I'll be there to shake your hand
Maybe I'll be there to share the land
That they'll be givin' away
When we all live together
Together, together
(Shake your hand, share the land)
You know I'll be standin' by to help you if you're worried
(Shake your hand, share the land)
No more sadness, no more sorrow, and no more bad times
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Every day comin' sunshine, every day everybody laughin'
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Walkin' together by the river, walkin' together and laughin'
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Everybody singin' together, everybody singin' and laughin'
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Good times, good times, everybody walkin' by the river now
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Walkin', singin', talkin', smilin', laughin', diggin' each other
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Everybody happy together, I'll be there, don't worry, if you're needin' me
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Call on me, call on me, call my name, I'll be runnin' to help you
(Shake your hand, share the land)
Everybody walkin' by the river now, everybody, everybody laughin'

Quem Me Levará Sou Eu
Quem Me Levará Sou Eu
Composer(s): Manduka; Dominguinhos
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner
Amigos a gente encontra
O mundo não é só aqui
Repare naquela estrada
Que distância nos levará
As coisas que eu tenho aqui
Na certa terei por lá
Segredos de um caminhão
Fronteiras por desvendar
Não diga que eu me perdi
Não mande me procurar
Cidades que eu nunca vi
São casas de braços
A me agasalhar
Passar como passam os dias
Se o calendário acabar
Eu faço contar o tempo outra vez
Sim, tudo outra vez a passar
Não diga que eu fiquei sozinho
Não mande alguém me acompanhar
Repare a multidão precisa
De alguém mais alto a lhe guiar
Quem me levará sou eu
Quem regressará sou eu
Não diga que eu não levo a guia
De quem souber me amar..

Shape Of My Heart
Shape Of My Heart
Composer(s): Dominic Miller; Sting
Performer(s): Sting
He deals the cards as a meditation
And those he plays never suspect
He doesn't play for the money he wins
He doesn't play for the respect
He deals the cards to find the answer
The sacred geometry of chance
The hidden law of probable outcome
The numbers lead a dance
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
He may play the jack of diamonds
He may lay the queen of spades
He may conceal a king in his hand
While the memory of it fades
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape, the shape of my heart
And if I told you that I loved you
You'd maybe think there's something wrong
I'm not a man of too many faces
The mask I wear is one
Those who speak know nothing
And find out to their cost
Like those who curse their luck in too many places
And those who smile are lost
I know that the spades are the swords of a soldier
I know that the clubs are weapons of war
I know that diamonds mean money for this art
But that's not the shape of my heart
That's not the shape of my heart

Quem Te Viu, Quem Te Vê
Quem Te Viu, Quem Te Vê
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque;
and various other artists
Você era a mais bonita das cabrochas dessa ala
Você era a favorita onde eu era mestre-sala
Hoje a gente nem se fala, mas a festa continua
Suas noites são de gala, nosso samba ainda é na rua
Hoje o samba saiu procurando você
Quem te viu, quem te vê
Quem não a conhece não pode mais ver pra crer
Quem jamais esquece não pode reconhecer
Quando o samba começava, você era a mais brilhante
E se a gente se cansava, você só seguia adiante
Hoje a gente anda distante do calor do seu gingado
Você só dá chá dançante onde eu não sou convidado
Hoje o samba saiu procurando você
Quem te viu, quem te vê
Quem não a conhece não pode mais ver pra crer
Quem jamais esquece não pode reconhecer
O meu samba se marcava na cadência dos seus passos
O meu sono se embalava no carinho dos seus braços
Hoje de teimoso eu passo bem em frente ao seu portão
Pra lembrar que sobra espaço no barraco e no cordão
Hoje o samba saiu procurando você
Quem te viu, quem te vê
Quem não a conhece não pode mais ver pra crer
Quem jamais esquece não pode reconhecer
Todo ano eu lhe fazia uma cabrocha de alta classe
De dourado eu lhe vestia pra que o povo admirasse
Eu não sei bem com certeza por que foi que um belo dia
Quem brincava de princesa acostumou na fantasia
Hoje o samba saiu procurando você
Quem te viu, quem te vê
Quem não a conhece não pode mais ver pra crer
Quem jamais esquece não pode reconhecer
Hoje eu vou sambar na pista, você vai de galeria
Quero que você assista na mais fina companhia
Se você sentir saudade, por favor não dê na vista
Bate palmas com vontade, faz de conta que é turista
Hoje o samba saiu procurando você
Quem te viu, quem te vê
Quem não a conhece não pode mais ver pra crer
Quem jamais esquece não pode reconhecer

Deja que tus ojos me vuelvan a mirar
deja que tus labios me vuelvan a besar
deja que tus besos ahuyenten las tristezas
que noche tras noche me hacen llorar
Deja que la luz retorne a mi alma
para que lo triste se marche de mí
déjame sentirme dormido en tus brazos
para que mi ser se llene de ti
Deja que mis sueños se aferren a tu pecho
para que te cuenten cuán grande es mi dolor
déjame estrujarte con este loco amor
que me tiene al borde de la desolación
Deja que mis manos no sientan el frío
el frío terrible de la soledad
quémame los ojos si es preciso vida
pero nunca digas que no volverás

Shannon
Shannon
Composer(s): Henry Gross
First release by: Henry Gross - 1976
Another day is at end
Mama says she's tired again
No one can even begin to tell her
I hardly know what to say
But maybe it's better that way
If papa were here i'm sure he'd tell her
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
Just like the one in our backyard
Mama tries hard to pretend things will get
Better again
Somehow she's keeping it all inside her
But finally the tears fill our eyes
And I know that somewhere tonight
She knows how much we really miss her
Shannon is gone I hope she's drifting out to sea
She always loved to swim away
Maybe she'll find an island with a shady tree
Just like the one in our backyard
Just like the one in our backyard
