Hold What You've Got
Hold What You've Got
Composer(s): Guy Draper; Joe Tex
Performer(s): Joe Tex;
and various other artists
You'd better hold on to what you've got
You'd better hold on to what you've got
'Cause if you think nobody wants it
Just throw it away and you will see
Someone will have it before you can count 1, 2, 3
Yes they will, yes they will
Listen fellows, you know it's not all the time
That a man can have a good woman
That he can call his very own
A woman who will stay right there at home
And mind the children while he's gone to work
A woman who will have his dinner cooked
When he comes home
Where some men make mistakes is
When they go out and stay because they feel
No other wants his woman but him
Well listen, if you think no other man wants her
Just throw her away and you will see
Some men will have her before you can count 1, 2, 3
Yes he will, yes he will
Listen girls, this goes for you too
Because you know I've seen so man women
Who've had so many good men in life
Men who would stand by them thru thick and thin
Men who'd go to work everyday and
Bring home their hard earned pay
Men who'd give their woman anything
Their little hearts desired
Where some women make mistakes is
When their men go out and let em play they would stay
Because they felt that no other woman wanted him but her
Well listen, if you think no other woman wants him
Just pitch him out in the street and you will see
Some woman will have your man
Before you can count 1, 2, 3
Yes she will, yes she will

Stella By Starlight
Stella By Starlight
Composer(s): Ned Washington - Victor Young
First performance by: Victor Young and His Orch. - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists
The song a robin sings
Through years of endless springs
The murmur of a brook at eventide
That ripples by a nook where two lovers hide
A great symphonic theme
That's Stella by starlight
And not a dream
My heart and I agree
She's everything on earth to me
A great symphonic theme
That's Stella by starlight
And not a dream
My heart and I agree
She's everything on earth to me

Hold On To My Love
Hold On To My Love
Composer(s): Robin Gibb; Blue Weaver
Performer(s): Jimmy Ruffin;
Warren Shaw; Vikki Shepard
Today, you came by, to tell me you are leaving me
and to say, that the love, and all that we knew had just drifted away
And I look, in your eyes, and I couldn't bare the pain I felt inside, of my heart
To think I'm gonna be lonely again, and if e-ever
then I know at a glance that I don't stand a chance
Chorus:
Hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you
Your the light of my life
There's no living without (your love)
It's so hard, to believe, that your going away could make me feel so down
'Cause I know, that from this moment on I won't have you around
And if e-ever you go, then I know at a glance that I won't stand a chance
Chorus:
So hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you
Your the light of my life
There's no living without (your love)
Ooooh, oh baby, nobody's taking your place
But for you, but for me, our love would live on for the whole world to see
Chorus:
So hold on, to my love, I'm nothing, and I can't get along without you
Your the light of my life
There's no living without your love
No, no, no, no
Hey
Whooo
Honey hold on (hold on), to my love (my love)
I'm nothing (hold on) and I can't get along without you (hold on)
Your the light, your the light, of my life (my life)
There's no living without (your love)
(Hold on, to my love)
Hold on, cause I'm nothin girl, and I can't get along without you
you, your the light of my life (my life)
And I just can't live without you

Valentine Lost
Valentine Lost
Composer(s): Sveinn Rúnar Sigurðsson - Peter Fenner
First performance by: Eiríkur Hauksson - 2007
I'll let the music play while love lies softly bleeding
In heavy hands on shadowlands
As thunderclouds roll in, sunset is receding
No summer wine, no Valentine
A tiger trapped inside a cage
An actor on an empty stage
Come see the show
Rock ‘n' roll can heal your soul
When broken hearts lose all control
Some rivers still run dry and jungles burn to embers
Gold autumn days must fade to grey
There is a reason why a haunted man remembers
One frozen night, his darkest day
A tiger trapped inside a cage
An actor on an empty stage
Come see the show
Rock ‘n' roll will heal your soul
When broken hearts lose all control
A passion killed by acid rain
A rollercoaster in my brain
But how would you know?
In your satin, silk and lace
Another time, another place
A tiger trapped inside a cage
An actor on an empty stage
Come see the show
Rock ‘n' roll will heal your soul
When broken hearts lose all control
A love let loose and painted black
A train stuck on a broken track
Well, I'll let it go
Rock ‘n' roll has healed my soul
The stage is set, on with the show

Hold On (Yes)
Hold On
Composer(s): Chris Anderson; Trevor Rabin; Chris Squire
Performer(s): Yes
Justice to the left of you
Justice to the right
Speak when you are spoken to
Don't pretend you're right
This life's not for living
It's for fighting and for war
No matter what the truth is
Hold on to what is yours
Jigsaw puzzle traitors
Set to spill the beans
Constitution screw up
Shattering the dreams
Blood flows in the desert
Dark citadels burning too
Watch! Look over your shoulder
This one is strictly for you
Hold on - Hold on
Wait maybe the answer's
Looking for you
Hold on - Hold on
Wait! Take you time
Think it through
Yes! I can make it through
Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine shine on through
Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine shine on you
See it through
Talk the simple smile
Such platonic eye
How they drown in incomplete capacity
Strangest of them all
When the feeling calls
How we drown in stylistic audacity
Charge the common ground
Round and round and round
We living in gravity
Shake - We shake so hard
How we laugh so loud
When we reach
We believe in eternity
I believe in eternity
Hold on - Hold on
Wait - Take your time Sunshine shine on through
See it through
Hold on - Hold on
Wait - Maybe a chance Sunshine shine on through
Is looking for you Sunshine shine on you
Hold on - Hold on
Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine - Shine on shine on you
Sunshine - Shine on through
Sunshine - Shine on shine on through
Sunshine - Shine on you
Sunshine - Shine on - Shine on you Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine - Shine on through Wait - Take your time
See it through
Sunshine - Shine on - Shine on through Hold on - Hold on
Sunshine - Shine on you Wait - Maybe the answer's looking for you

Hold On (Rosanne Cash)
Hold On
Composer(s): Rosanne Cash
Performer(s): Rosanne Cash
If you want to keep a woman like me, you got to hold on
If you want to see how good it can be, baby, hold on
All my friends think that I'm a fool
I tell you something honey, they're not that cool
If you want to keep a woman like me, you better hold on
If you want to know how far we can go, you got to hold on
If you take it slow then I got something to show you
Baby, hold on
All those girls with their empty heads
Can't fill 'em up with the lies they've been fed
If you want to know how far I can go, you got to hold on
She'll give you reasons for her kind
You might believe it, but I'm not that blind
If you think you need a woman like me, you better hold on
If you want to find what I've got on my mind, baby, hold on
All this small talk that keeps us apart
Is only hiding how we feel in our hearts
If you want to keep a woman like me, baby, hold on

Partners In Crime (Gerli Padar)
Partners In Crime
Composer(s): Hendrik Sal-Saller - Berit Veiber
First performance by: Gerli Padar - 2007
We're standing in the rain
And sipping cold champagne
The night is full of angels of sin
The demons of pleasure and pain
You whisper in my ear
I'm holding back the tears
Your words are burning the way to my heart
That's been held hostage for years
The wild look in your eyes
Will light my fire inside
This is the night that we cannot deny
We'll always be partners in crime
I kiss your lips so sweet
Mmm... but do you feel the heat?
Is it so wrong to be hungry for love?
To follow the passion so deep?
The wild look in your eyes
Will light my fire inside
This is the night that we cannot deny
We'll always be partners in crime
The wild look in your eyes
Will light my fire inside
This is the night that we cannot deny
We'll always be partners in crime
Now it's too late to turn back the time
We just have to go with the flow
I will be yours and you will be mine
And that's how the story goes
The wild look in your eyes
Will light my fire inside
This is the night that we cannot deny
We'll always be partners in crime
The wild look in your eyes
Will light my fire inside
This is the night that we cannot deny
We'll always be partners in crime
Partners in crime
Partners in crime

Hold On (Dan Hill)
Hold On
Composer(s): Dan Hill
Performer(s): Dan Hill; Ann Christy
So you flung your fist high in the air
But the world remained the same
And all the demonstrations
Filtered out through graduation
And the times that were a changing
Never changed
Freedom takes on new meaning
When you have a family of five
And peace and revolution dissolved in its own solution
When you're fighting for your life
Just to survive
It's then you've gotta
Hold on - for what you believe in
Hold on - don't let it fade
Still you've gotta
Be strong - find yourself a reason
You never change the world
But just the same
You've gotta hold on stronger
Each and every day
When the night creeps in so hollow
When the silence makes you scream
When you're so damned scared of failure
When the world's burned out it's saviors
When you're feeling too vulnerable to dream
It's then you've gotta
Hold on - for what you believe in
Hold on - don't let it fade
Still you've gotta
Be strong - find yourself a reason
You never change the world
But just the same
You've gotta hold on stronger
Or else you'll fade

Steig in das Traumboot der Liebe
fahre mit mir nach Hawaii
dort auf der Insel der Schönheit

Leise rauscht das Meer
und leise singt der Wind
alles wird so hell
duftet Blütenschwer
eine Melodie ist heut in uns erwacht
eine Melodie der Nacht
Steig in das Traumboot der Liebe
fahre mit mir nach Hawaii
dort auf der Insel der Schönheit
wartet das Glück auf uns Zwei
Die Nacht erzählt uns ein Märchen
und macht das Märchen auch wahr
Steig in das Traumboot der Liebe
bald sind wir beide ein Paar

Hold On (Benjamin Orr)
Hold On
Composer(s): Benjamin Orr; Diane Grey Page
Performer(s): Benjamin Orr
Well you sure look good tonight
I think I've come to see sunlight
Come on, hold on to me
Belong to me
You know that love looks good on you
In what you say and what you do
Come on, hold on to me
It's all I need
I gotta do the _____ in time __________
Not a thing to show for all the times I've tried
Now we just can't seem to wipe the smile away
And you gave it to me
Give it up - I'm feeling something beautiful
Look at this - we're starting to be suitable to me
Every day I find what you got into us
Can't seem to get enough of you
When you're away, I dream that you...
Come on and hold on to me
Belong to me
And so it never really ends
You mend the hurts that never mend
Come on, hold on to me
It's all I need
Where did all what I had in my run for me, guess ya...
Gotta take the blinders off so that you can see
Not a thought comes by that doesn't hang on you
And what did I do before?
Can't believe that this is really happening
All the hurtful days are finally vanishing
Making all the fantasies realities
We could be in for some surprises
I know it - you know it too.
Before you think of compromises
Just realize it's only here for you
Yeah, you sure look good tonight
I think I've finally seen sunlight
Come on, hold on to me
It's all I need.
And so it never really ends
You mend the hurts that never mend
Come on and hold on to me
Belong to me
Gotta make for bringing out the best to me
When the love is is right, it's possible to see you so clearly
All my life I wondered would it come to me
(come to me)
Then you brought it to me
Can't believe that this is really happening
All the hurtful days are finally vanishing
Making all your fantasies realities
Where did all what I had in my run for me, guess ya...
Gotta take the blinders off so that you can see
Not a thought comes by that doesn't hang on you
And what did I do before?

Steel Rail Blues
Steel Rail Blues
Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot
First recording/First release by: Gordon Lightfoot - 1964/1966
Covered by multiple other artists
Well, I got my mail late last night
A letter from a girl who found the time to write
To her lonesome boy somewheres in the night
She sent me a railroad ticket, too
To take me to her lovin' arms
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love
Well I bin out here many a long days
I haven't found a place that I could call my own
Not a two-bit bed to lay my body on
I bin stood up, I bin shook down
I bin dragged into the sand
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love
Ooooh-oooo-oo-whu-hu-hoo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo
Well I bin up tight most every night
Walkin' along the streets of this old town
Not a friend around to tell my troubles to
My good old car, she done broke down
'Cause I drove it into the ground
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love
Well, I look over yonder across the plain
The big drive wheels are poundin' along the ground
Gonna get on board and I'll be homeward bound
Now I ain't had a home cooked meal
And Lord, I need one now
And the big steel rail gonna carry me home to the one I love
Ooooh-oooo-oo-whu-hu-hoo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo
Well, here I am with my head in the sand
Standin' on the broad highway, will you give a ride
To a lonesome boy who missed the train last night
I went in town for one last round
And I gambled my ticket away
And the big steel rail won't carry me home to the one I love
Ooooh-oooo-oo-whu-hu-hoo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo
Ooooh-oooo-oo-whu-hu-hoo
Ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-ooo-oo
Yee-hee-heee

Drama Queen
Drama Queen
Composer(s): Simon Munk - Peter Andersen - Claus Christensen
First performance by: DQ - 2007
When the sun is setting at the end of the day
And the city fills with shades of grey
In between the streetlight and the moonlit snow
There's a place I go
Where I do my show
I'm your drama queen tonight
All my troubles are out of sight
When the lights are on
I will be your shining star
I'm your drama queen tonight
Everything's gonna be alright
When I get on the stage tonight
It's a space in time where every dream comes true
And tomorrow's sorrows just won't do
In between reality and fantasy
I will make you see
If you just believe
I'm your drama queen tonight
All my troubles are out of sight
When the lights are on
I will be your shining star
I'm your drama queen tonight
Everything's gonna be alright
When I get on the stage tonight
No more use pretending
No more reason to run and hide
Let's make all our dreams come true tonight
I'm you drama queen tonight
All my troubles are out of sight
When the lights are far
I will be your shining star
I'm your drama queen tonight
Everything's gonna be alright
When I get on the stage tonight
Oh... 'cause I'm your drama queen tonight

So this is the kingdom of heaven
So this is the sweet promised land
While angels tell of love, don't break the spell of love

Let's never leave again, Adam and Eve again
Hold my hand
This is the secret of what bliss is
For bliss is what your kiss is
At last I understand
So this is the kingdom of heaven
And here on the threshold we stand
Pass through the portal now, we'll be immortal now
Hold my hand
So this is the kingdom of heaven
And here on the threshold we stand
Pass through the portal now, we'll be immortal now
Hold my hand

Steel Guitar Rag
Steel Guitar Rag
Composer(s): Leon McAuliff - Merle Travis - Cliff Stone
Performer(s): George Jones
and multiple other artists
Been runnin' around, seen many a town
and maybe you'll find I'm the kind of guy that brags
But listen to me and see if you don't agree
No melody rolls like that old steel guitar rag
And when they slide that thing, along those strings
It sounds so dogone heavenly, you can hear the Angels sing
And when you stomp your feet, your heart will beat
A rhythm to the old steel guitar rag
You may be kind choosy, 'bout the kind of songs you hear
You maybe like them blusey, makes you cry right in your beer
But if you want a song that's bound to dry away your tears
Make happy your soul with that old steel guitar rag

Hold me, hold me
Never let me go until you've told me, told me
What I want to know and then just hold me, hold me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you
Thrill me (thrill me), thrill me (thrill me)
Walk me down the lane where shadows will be (will be), will be (will be)
Hiding lovers just the same as we'll be, we'll be
When you make me tell you I love you
They told me "Be sensible with your new love"
"Don't be fooled, thinking this is the last you'll find"
But they never stood in the dark with you, love
When you take me in your arms and drive me slowly out of my mind
Kiss me (kiss me), kiss me (kiss me)
And when you do, I'll know that you will miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)
If we ever say "Adieu", so kiss me, kiss me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you
(Kiss me) kiss me, (kiss me) kiss me
When you do, I'll know that you will miss me (miss me), miss me (miss me)
If we ever say "Adieu" so kiss me, kiss me
Make me tell you I'm in love with you
(Hold me, thrill me)
(Never, never, never let me go)
(Hold me, thrill me, never, never, never let me go)
(Hold me, thrill me, never, never, never let me go)

Comme Ci Comme Ça
Comme Ci Comme Ça
First performance by: Evridiki - 2007
Tous les lundis, tu finis
Le travail trop tard puis
La télé et sommeil
Quand mon cœur se réveille
Tous les mardis tu me dis
Le matin et tu l'oublies
On ira au ciné
Et le soir “désolé”
Comme ci, comme ça
La vie passe
Et les beaux moments nous dépassent
Comme ci, comme ça
L’amour casse
Routine et paresse nous menacent
Comme ci, comme ça
Je n’en peux plus
Je suis déçue, tu m'as perdue
Je reste pas là
Comme ci, comme ça
La fin voilà
Comme ci, comme ça
Même les samedis à minuit
Tu me dis déjà “Bonne Nuit”
Tu t’endors quand je sors
En te chantant très fort
Comme ci, comme ça
La vie passe
Et les beaux moments nous dépassent
Comme ci, comme ça
L’amour casse
Routine et paresse nous menacent
Comme ci, comme ça
Je n’en peux plus
Je suis déçue, tu m'as perdue
Je reste pas là
Comme ci, comme ça
La fin voilà
Comme ci, comme ça
Comme ci, comme ça
La vie passe
Et les beaux moments nous dépassent
Comme ci, comme ça
L’amour casse
Routine et paresse nous menacent
Comme ci, comme ça
Je n’en peux plus
Je suis déçue, tu m'as perdue
