Why Do I Always Get It Wrong?


Why Do I Always Get It Wrong?
Composer(s): John Beeby - Brian Hodgson
First performance by: Live Report - 1989



No more sad songs for me to sing
No more heartaches for you to bring me
No more being the hurting kind
I am running where you won't find me

Whenever I was lonely, I'd call you up and then
I would soon regret my momentary weakness
But it feels so strong
Why do I always get it wrong?

No more sad songs on lonely nights
No more seeking the wrongs or rights of it
No more playing the fool for you
You can do what you wanna do now

Whenever I was lonely, I'd call you up and then
I would soon regret my momentary weakness
But it feels so strong
Why do I always get it wrong?

(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
(I am running where you can't find me)
No more sad songs for me to sing
(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
No more heartaches, no more heartaches
So now you can't hurt me
(I am running where you can't find me)

Sometimes I wish that we had never met
(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
'Cause you're my weakness, you're my weakness
You're my one and only regret
(I am running where you can't find me)

I am runnin', runnin', runnin' where you won't find me
(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
Don't wanna play the fool for you
(I am running where you can't find me)
So go on your way, do what you gotta do

(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
(I am running where you can't find me)
(No more sad songs, no more heartache)
(I am running where you can't find me)

Uno Mas, Otro Mas


Uno Mas, Otro Mas
Composer(s): A. García
Performer(s): Raphael



Uno mas, otro mas
Con la toalla azul
Tape mi desnudez
En mi cara el rubor
Y en mi mano el jabon
Uno mas, otro mas
La mili ya empece
Hoy somos como cien
Que en fila india van
Ahora tu, luego yo
Y uno mas, otro mas
Aquella juventud
Empezaba a vivir
Al lado del cañon
El rancho y el fusil
Uno mas, otro mas

Muchachos como yo
De toda condicion
Alguno alli rio
Y algun otro lloro
Y uno mas, otro mas
No fue ni trafalgar
Tampoco fue bailen
Fueron momentos que
Todo me daba igual
Uno mas, otro mas
Mas juro que escuchar
La voz del oficial
Gritando ¡a formar!
Acobardo a los cien
Y uno mas, y otro mas

¿Por que sera? no se
Mas yo juro por dios
Que desde el dia aquel
Escucho aquella voz
Uno mas, otro mas
La voz que consiguio
A todos dominar
La voz que nos trato
A todos por igual
Uno mas, y otro mas
Y hoy cuando una mujer
Se rinde ante mi amor
Parece murmurar
Igual que aquella voz
Uno mas, otro mas

Si tu eres otro mas
Te debes rebelar
Y asi tratar de ser
Tu mismo y no uno mas
No se si es lo peor
No se si es lo mejor
Que te siga yo a ti
O me sigas tu a mi
Uno mas, otro mas
Quizas me cortare
Las piernas o tal vez
Un dia me ahorcare
Y asi jamas sere
Uno mas, otro mas

Someone Else's Baby


Someone Else's Baby
Composer(s): Perry Ford - Les Vandyke
Performer(s): Adam Faith



Someone else's baby
Someone else's eyes are blue
Someone else's baby
Someone else's five-foot-two

Oh, who's got a hold up
Nine carat gold love
I wonder who's in the loveseat
Who's got a heartbeat, like thunder

If I acted bad
I could steal his fairy queen
I know he'll be mad
But I can't resist the thought of being kissed

By someone else's baby
Someone else's special date
Someone else's baby
Someone else is kinda late

He'd better mind out
She's gonna find out I love her
This little fellah is gonna tell her
That someone else is me

Well, if I acted bad
I could steal his fairy queen
I know he'll be mad
But I can't resist the thought of being kissed

By someone else's baby
Someone else's special date
Someone else's baby
Someone else is kinda late

Oh, he'd better mind out
She's gonna find out I love her
This little fellow is gonna tell her
That someone else is me

Uno Su Mille


Uno Su Mille
Composer(s): Roberto Fia; Francesci Migliacci
Performer(s): Gianni Morandi



Se sei a terra non strisciare mai
se ti diranno sei finito
non ci credere
devi contare solo su di te
uno su mille ce la fa
ma quanto è dura la salita
in gioco c'è la vita
il passato non potrà
tornare uguale mai
forse meglio perché non tu che ne sai
non hai mai creduto in me
ma dovrai cambiare idea
la vita è come la marea
ti porta in secca o in alto mare
com'è la luna va

Non ho barato né bluffato mai
e questa sera ho messo a nudo la mia anima
ho perso tutto ma ho ritrovato me
uno su mille ce la fa
ma quanto è dura la salita
in gioco c'è la vita
tu non sai che peso ha
questa musica leggera
ti ci innamori e vivi
ma ci puoi morire quand'è sera
io di voce ce ne avrei
ma non per gridare aiuto
nemmeno tu mi hai mai sentito
mi son tenuto il mio segreto
tu sorda e io ero muto
se sei a terra non strisciare mai
se ti diranno
sei finito non ci credere
finché non suona la campana vai

Door De Wind


Door De Wind
Composer(s): Stef Bos
First performance by: Ingeborg - 1989



Door de wind, door de regen
Dwars door alles, door alles heen

Ik zie je voor me
Met m'n ogen dicht
Ik kan je voelen
Met m'n hart op slot
Ik hoor je praten
Maar je bent er niet
Je bent er niet

En ik voel me verloren
Als ik jou moet verliezen
En ik blijf van je dromen
Want ik kan je niet missen
Ik kan je niet missen

Door de wind
Door de regen
Dwars door alles heen
Door de storm
Al zit alles me tegen
Door jou
Ben ik nooit alleen

Ik voel je naast me
Als ik 's nachts op straat
Wil vergeten
Wat in mijn ogen staat geschreven
Je moest eens weten

En ik wil me verliezen
In de roes van een winnaar
En ik zou willen schreeuwen
Maar ik kan alleen zingen
Ik kan alleen zingen

Door de wind
Door de regen
Dwars door alles heen
Door de storm
Al zit alles me tegen
Door jou
Ben ik nooit alleen

Door een zee van afstand
Door een muur van leegte
Door een land van stilte
Door een muur van leegte

Door de wind
Door de regen
Dwars door alles heen
Door de storm
Al zit alles me tegen
Door jou
Ben ik nooit alleen

Nooit alleen
Door jou ben ik nooit alleen...

Uno, Dos Y Tres


Uno, Dos Y Tres
Composer(s): Manuel Benítez Carrasco
Performer(s): Raphael



Uno, dos y tres
Tres banderilleros en el redondel
Sin las banderillas, tres banderilleros
Solo tres monteras tras los burlaeros

Uno, dos y tres
Luego tres capotes en el redondel
Puntos cardinales de una geografia de sol y de sangre
Y el toro en el sur

Una media luna sobre su testu
Y uno, dos y tres
El toro no sabe como obedecer
Las manos en llama
El uno lo llama pero no lo espera
Tras un burlaero tiembla una montera
Y el dos que lo cita ni lo quiere ver
Coraje, coraje
Cornadon de rabia, burladero al aire
Y la voz del tres
¡Toro! ¡toro! ¡eh!
Patas y pitones en busca del tres
Pero el tres espera y...
Uno, dos y tres
Con tres capotazos le para los pies
Punta de perca, mano burlaora
Sal torero, sal ahora
Y cuando el torero llamando... citando
Fuerza la arrancada del toro
Y parando temple a la embestida
Mandando, marcando salida, burlando cornada y...
Y uno, dos y tres
Son de nuevo tres
Tres banderilleros
Solo tres monteras tras los burlaeros
Uno, dos y tres
Capotes al quite en el redondel

Someone Cares


Someone Cares
Composer(s): Drake - Krissel - Shirl
Performer(s): Vaughn Monroe; Art Lund



Someone cares, and now that someone cares
There is no doubt about my outlook knowing someone cares
Someone who has changed my point of view
Who’d ever think that holding hands was something new

And someone cares if I as much as frown
Where I’m concerned I’ve learned she’d turn the whole world upside down
Lucky me to care for someone specially
When that someone cares for me

And someone cares if I as much as frown
Where I’m concerned I’ve learned she’d turn the whole world upside down
Lucky me to care for someone specially
When that someone cares for me

Unpack Your Adjectives


Unpack Your Adjectives
Composer(s): George Newall
Performer(s): Blossom Dearie;
Daniel Johnston; The Mr. T Experience



Came home from camping last spring
Saw people, places and things
We barely had arrived
Friends asked us to describe
The people, places and every last thing
So we unpacked our adjectives
I unpacked "frustrating" first
Reached in and found the word "worst."
Then I picked "soggy" and
Next I picked "foggy" and
Then I was ready to tell them my tale
Because I'd unpacked my adjectives

Adjectives are words you use to really describe things
Handy words to carry around
Days are sunny or they're rainy
Boys are dumb or else they're brainy
Adjectives can show you which way

Adjectives are often used to help us compare things
To say how thin how fat how short how tall
Girls who are tall can get taller
Boys who are small can get smaller
Till one is the tallest
And one is the smallest of all

We hiked along without care
Then we ran into a bear
He was a hairy bear
He was a scary bear
We beat a hasty retreat from his lair
And described him with adjectives

Next time you go on a trip
Remember this little tip
The minute you get back
They'll ask you this and that
You can describe people, places and things
Simply unpack your adjectives
You can do it with adjectives
Tell them about it with adjectives
You can shout it with adjectives

First performance by: Justine - 1989



Je rolde zomaar in m'n leven
Het was anders dan voorheen
Ik kende jou al heel wat jaren
Je moest me echt niet, naar het scheen

Blijf zoals ik jou nu ken
Ik hou van jou zoals je bent
Gewoon, zoals je bent
Blijf jezelf, verander niet
Gewoon jezelf zijn alsjeblieft
Gewoon, zoals je bent

In al die tijd heb jij veel meegemaakt
Ondanks alles bleef je trouw
Je bent m'n vriend, m'n hele leven
Wat zou ik zijn zonder jou

Blijf zoals ik jou nu ken
Ik hou van jou zoals je bent
Gewoon, zoals je bent
Blijf jezelf, verander niet
Gewoon jezelf zijn alsjeblieft
Gewoon, zoals je bent

Je hebt zoveel om van te leren
Toe maar gauw, leer het me, ik hou van jou
'k Heb nog zoveel van je te leren
Toe maar gauw, leer het me, ik hou van jou

Blijf zoals ik jou nu ken
Ik hou van jou zoals je bent
Gewoon, zoals je bent
Blijf jezelf, verander niet
Gewoon jezelf zijn alsjeblieft
Gewoon, zoals je bent

Untie Me


Untie Me
Composer(s): Joe South
Performer(s): The Tams;
and various other artists



Not too long ago
You said you'd love me til the end
But lately you're indifferent
And I can't even be your friend
If I'm really such a bore
And you don't love me any more
Leave my heart
So I can smile again
Untie me (untie me)
Untie me baby (untie me)
You're not ever there
When I need you
I don't know what to say
Or what to do
So untie me

If you found a new love
I won't put the blame on you
But if you found a true love
Just let me start my life anew
If I'm really such a bore
And you don't want me anymore
Leave my heart
So I can smile again

And untie me

Untie me baby
Your'e not ever there
When I need you
You don't care what I say
Or what I do
So untie me

Someone (Johnny Mathis)


Someone
Composer(s): Bill Tennyson - Alfred
Performer(s): Johnny Mathis



Someone really loves you guess who?
Someone really needs you guess why?
Someone wants to kiss you and hold you tight
Someone wants to love you each and every night

Someone wants to say "Hello"
I know he'll never let you go
When he looks into your eyes I know that you will realize
And guess just who that someone must be
I know you'll know that someone i-i-is me

(Instrumental first two lines)
Someone wants to kiss you and hold you tight
Someone wants to love you each and every night

Someone wants to say "He-e-e-ello"
I know he'll never let you go
When he looks into your eyes I know that you will realize
And guess just who that someone must be
I know you'll know that someone
I know you'll know that someone i-i-is me

The Charioteers; Tommy Dorsey & His Orch.



Until there are no stars to shine
There’s no such thing as time
I’ll love but you

Until there are no songs to sing
There’s no such thing as spring
I’ll love but you

You were sent from heaven just for me
And you were oh! So heavenly

Until there is no moon above
There’s no such thing as love
I’ll love but you

(Orchestral Interlude)

You were sent from heaven just for me
And you were oh! So heavenly

Until there is no moon above
There’s no such thing as love
I’ll love but you

Someone (Blue)


Someone
Composer(s): Hugh Nicholson
Performer(s): Blue



Someone broke the spell that held us together
What am I supposed to do
If you knew me well then you would never
Have fallen in love with two
It's the end
If you send all your love to him
No one knows the feeling that I have down in my heart
Nobody knows like me
And I can't help revealing what I feel when we're apart
No one else can see
It's no fun anymore
I can never be sure of you
Someone broke the spell that held us together
What am I supposed to do
If you knew me well then you would never
Have fallen in love with two
Fallen in love with two
Fallen, fallen in love with two

Until I Met You


Until I Met You
Composer(s): Freddie Green; Don Wolf
Performer(s): Tony Bennett;
and various other artists



I used to be so fancy free but really lonesome as can be
Till one lucky day you came my way

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I used to think there'd never be a girl who'd ever care for me
Then what do you know you made it so
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

When you kissed me
I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring
When you kissed me
I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing
I felt like a king
And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize
That your love is mine ain't it just fine
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
Since I found you I feel the entire universe reel

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I'm the happiest boy cause you bring me nothing but joy
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

When you kissed me
I felt the seasons change from winter to Spring
When you kissed me
I lost my reason cause I heard the birds sing
I felt like a king
And now I have to rub my eyes each time I try to realize
That your love is mine ain't it just fine

I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you
I never knew what love was all about
Until I met you

Someone (Air Supply)


Someone
Composer(s): Graham Russell - Guy Allison
Performer(s): Air Supply



When you first found love
Was it all that you had wanted
For a thousand lonely years
Was the memory so sweet
Now your scented touch brings me
Back to the enchanted
All shadows fade away
The gypsy is complete

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

From the secret pool
Did I stare at your reflection
Let the water wash away all the battle
From my soul
For the bride of spring,
Do I swear to your protection
Today will be the day that never shall
Grow old

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

Silence broken and the blackbird is free
Only your voice can I hear, speak to me

Someone is walking beside me
Someone is waiting till I say yes I do
Someone is living inside me
Giving me all that I need and I need you
Someone to cry on my shoulder
I just want to stay here forever

The Real Me (Kiev Connolly)


The Real Me
Composer(s): Kiev Connolly
First performance by: Kiev Connolly & The Missing Passengers - 1989



I call my baby and she tells me that she's leavin'
And this time it's for good
I can't believe her and I'm sure that there is something
That I've misunderstood
Yeah, yeah

When she's gone, I'll be standin' here in the rain
When she's gone, well, the sun won't shine anyway

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

You know the feeling when you're needing
And your heart is cold
If there's a reason or a meaning
Then I ain't been told
Yeah, yeah

When she's gone, I'll be standin' here in the rain
When she's gone, well, the sun won't shine anyway

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Real me, it's the real me
Real me, it's the real me

Can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Mmm... can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and you will see it's me

Mmm... can't you see that it's the real me?
Take me as I am or let me be
Come to me, discover me
Oh, take my hand and...

Underdog


Underdog
(Theme Song)
Composer(s): W. Watts Biggers;
Treadwell Covington;
Joseph Harris; Chester Stover
Performer(s): Butthole Surfers



There's no need to fear! Underdog is here!

When criminals in this world appear
And break the laws that they should fear
And frighten all who see or hear
The cry goes up both far and near
For Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog
Underdog!

When in this world the headlines read
Of those whose hearts are filled with greed
Who rob and steal from those who need
To right this wrong with blinding speed
Goes Underdog! Underdog! Underdog! Underdog!

Speed of lightning, roar of thunder
Fighting all who rob or plunder
Underdog
Underdog!

Someday, Someway


Someday, Someway
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Freddy Gorman
Performer(s): The Marvelettes



Wo wo oh, wo wo oh

Someday, someway
I'm gonna tell you how much you mean to me
Not now, not for a little while
I've gotta make sure that your love is good
So you won't take advantage of me
Capture my heart & set me free

Someday, someway
When you prove to me that it's true love that you feel for me
Then I'll, then I'll know that your love is pure and I'll be sure
That you won't take advantage of me
Capture my heart and set me free
(Not now, not now)

Not for a little while
I hate to take a chance & lose a perfect romance
I know you wonder how long it will be
Before I tell you how much you mean to me
But before I let myself go, I just gotta know
If your love, dear, is really real

Someday, someway
Wo wo oh, wo wo oh ...

Underneath Hawaiian Skies


Underneath Hawaiian Skies
Composer(s): Ernie Erdman; Fred Rose



Where the tropic breezes play
where the palm trees bend and sway
there a lonely maiden sighs underneath Hawaiian skies
Every night beneath the moon you can hear a lonesome croon
calling out across the bay, to her lover far away

Moonbeams kiss the silvry sand, where they wandered, hand in hand
tears be-dim two soft brown eyes, underneath Hawaiian skies
Sweet Hawaiian melodies, bring to her fond memories
of a love that used to be, as she calls across the sea

Come back to the shores of Honolulu
I'm so lonely here without you, underneath Hawaiian skies
tell me am I waiting all in vain, dear?
say you're coming back again dear, to a land that's paradise
(Can't you hear me calling?)
Come back where each tiny star that twinkles
and each steel guitar that tinkles breathes of love that never dies
sometime I just know you'll be returning
to a heart that's always yearning, underneath Hawaiian skies
