Det Är Vår
Det Är Vår
Composer(s): Bobbie Ericson - Eric Sandström
Performer(s): Alice Babs
Det är vår
Varje år
blir det vår
Och en värmande sol
väcker upp allt som somnat en gång i fjol
Det är vår i luften i dag
Det är vår, så är naturens lag
Och västanvinden
som kysser kinden
viskar det är vår
Det är vår i sinnet i dag
Det är vår, det är av välbehag
Som himlen gråter
och solen åter
säger det är vår
Ur den svartaste mull
smyger våren på tå
för små gullvivors skull
och för blåsippor små
Det är vår i hjärtat i dag
Det är vår, o ljuva obehag
Som blodet bränner
var gång vi känner
känner det är vår
Ur den svartaste mull
smyger våren på tå
För små gullvivors skull
och för blåsippor små
Det är vår i hjärtat i dag
Det är vår, o ljuva obehag
Som blodet bränner
var gång vi känner
känner det är vår

A-Plus In Love
A-Plus In Love
Composer(s): Johnny Dee
Performer(s): John D. Loudermilk
I may make an "F" in English
They say my grammar just ain't good enough
I may make a "D" in History
And that Espaniola, boy, is rough
Well I may flank the whole semester
But if I do I'll promise stars above
That if I make an "E" in Geography
Gonna make an "A-plus" in love
Well now my girl just gave me a lecture
By showing how to get my home-work up
What a crip-course this is
The subject was on kisses
This is gonna pull my av'rage up
But just you wait, exams come tomorrow
I'm gonna cram and study till almost two
So I can make me an "E" in Geography
And "A-plus" in love with you
Well, now the grades ain't out
But I know what I've done
I've flanked all the courses but my favourite one
I played but I made A-plus in love with you

Destiny (Jennifer Rush)
Destiny
Composer(s): Dave Deviller - Gunther Mende - Jennifer Rush
Performer(s): Jennifer Rush
Some say it's sure collision say it's bound to lose
But there's no denying I'm able to choose
I know what leaves me cold and what burns me up
Now this time it's just right I'm very sure
I call it wonder
Something hard to define
Sometimes it's thunder
That strikes my senses hard
He's my destiny and it's hard to see
I want could love him more
He's my destiny gotta hold on me
I'm always back for more
My heart has spent time drifting back and forth in love
Just in what direction was never sure
And than he moved up towards me and towed me in
Nobody's moved me quite like this
I call it wonder
Something hard to define
It's just like thunder
That strikes my senses hard
He's my destiny and it's hard to see
I want could love him more
He's my destiny gotta hold on me
I'm always back for more
Ooh he can turn me round slow me down
Anytime he sees it fit to hold me back
Ooh it's enough
To make me go out of my mind
He's my destiny and it's hard to see
I want could love him more
He's my destiny gotta hold on me
I'm always back for more

It's Lonesome
It's Lonesome
Composer(s): Hank Cochran
Performer(s): Billy Walker
I've walked a million miles across this floor
And a million times I opened this door
But all there ever enters is the blues, hmm
It's lonesome without you
I know we just broke up two days ago
But it seems a million years or so
To get you back there's nothing I wouldn't do, hmm
It's lonesome without you
If I could count high enough I'd let you know
How many times I wished that you'd walk through that door
And love me as only you can do, hmm
It's lonesome without you
If I could count high enough I'd let you know
How many times I wished that you'd walk through that door
And love me as only you can do, hmm
It's lonesome without you
Oh, love me as only you can do, hmm
It's lonesome without you ...

Destiny (Gloria Estefan)
Destiny
Composer(s): Lawrence Dermer - Gloria Estefan - Emilio Estefan Jr. - Diane Warren
Performer(s): Gloria Estefan
Destiny
Has once again suprised me
Oh destiny
Must want you here beside me
Quietly
Like the sunrise with its splendor
Unexpectedly
With a passion strong yet tender
You draw me in
Like the moon draws the tide
Swept away by this love
Taken in by your eyes
If I had to walk away from you
I know that it would be no use
'cause you're so deep inside of me
Can't deny
I never want to be set free
The more you give the more I need
You can't change what is meant to be
No you can't change destiny
Destiny
Destiny
Speaks with many voices
So eventually
We're obliged to make some choices
Oh destiny
Who I thought I owned completely
Just to toy with me
Made me fall in love so deeply
You fill my soul
Like the stars fill the sky
Brought to life
This new world
Where I'm held captive inside
If I had to walk away from you
I know that it would be no use
'cause you're so deep inside of me
Can't deny
I never want to be set free
The more you give the more I need
You can't change what is meant to be
No, you can't change destiny
If I had to walk away from you
I know that it would be no use
No you can't change destiny
Destiny

I pull my blue jeans on
I pull my old blue jeans on (cha-cha)

Destination Terre
Destination Terre
Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell; Los Angeles
Le bris de glace d'un coup de cristal est crispant
Mais demeure élégant
Le cri du bar qui ferme est déchirant
Tout comme un son "dolby surround"
Quelle que soit la ville, le lieu, l'endroit ou l'heure
Y a toujours l'instant où y' a un blues qui pleure
Pourquoi les gens qui s'aiment aiment s'faire du mal
Même à titre expérimental?
Les larmes sont peut-être plus salées
Dans les yeux des amours blessés
Ah quelque soit la nuit, le p'tit jour est là à l'heure
Les brèves de comptoir s'terminent sur des rancœurs
... Faut décoller
Destination Terre
Faut r'tomber
Mais sans planer
Et surtout réapprendre à s'aimer
Destination Terre
Essayer
De r'trouver
Just' un zest, un semblant de dignité
Affronter l'temps réel
Cett' planète, Destination Terre
Pourquoi les gens sensibles sont souvent
Considérés comm' des mutants?
Ils ressent' trop d'courants, de sentiments
Là où les autres ne font semblant
Quelles que soient leurs vies, le meilleur est ailleurs
Ce monde impossible n'existe que dans leurs cœurs
... Faut pas rêver
Destination Terre
Faut r'tomber
Mais sans planer
Et surtout réapprendre à s'aimer
Destination Terre
Essayer
De r'trouver
Just' un zest, un semblant de dignité
Affronter l'temps réel
Cett' planète, Destination Terre

Apesar De Você
Apesar De Você
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
Hoje você é quem manda
Falou, tá falado
Não tem discussão
A minha gente hoje anda
Falando de lado
E olhando pro chão, viu
Você que inventou de inventar
Toda a escuridão
Você que inventou o pecado
Esqueceu-se de inventar
O perdão
Apesar de você
Amanhã há de ser
Outro dia
Eu pergunto a você
Onde vai se esconder
Da enorme euforia
Como vai proibir
Quando o galo insistir
Em cantar
Água nova brotando
E a gente se amando
Sem parar
Quando chegar o momento
Esse meu sofrimento
Vou cobrar com ljuros, juro
Todo esse amor reprimido
Esse grito contido
Este samba no escuro
Você que inventou a tristeza
Ora, tenha fineza
De desinventar
Você vai pagar e é dobrado
Cada lágrima rolada
Nesse meu penar
Apesar de você
Amanhã há de ser
Outro dia
Inda pago pra ver
O jardim florescer
Qual você não queria
Você vai se amargar
Vendo o dia raiar
Sem lhe pedir licença
E eu vou morrer de rir
Que esse dia há de vir
Antes do que você pensa
Apesar de você
Amanhã há de ser
Outro dia
Você vai ter que ver
A manhã renascer
E esbanjar poesia
Como vai se explicar
Vendo o céu clarear
De repente, impunemente
Como vai abafar
Nosso coro a cantar
Na sua frente
Apesar de você
Amanhã há de ser
Outro dia
Você vai se dar mal
Etc. e tal

Destination Moon
Composer(s): Roy Alfred - Marvin Fisher
Performer(s): The Ames Brothers
and multiple other artists
Come and take a trip in my rocket ship
We'll have a lovely afternoon
Kiss the world goodbye and away we fly
Destination moon
Travel fast as light 'til we're lost from sight
The earth is like a toy balloon
What a thrill you get ridin' on a jet
Destination moon
We'll go up, up, up, up, straight to the moon, we two
High in the starry blue, I'll be out of this world with you
So away we steal in a space mobile
A supersonic honeymoon
Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let's go!
Destination moon
Into the milky way we'll wander while we watch the folks down yonder
Oh, we're gonna have a lovely afternoon
Up on the highest constellation we'll look out across the nation
'Cause the earth is like a tiny toy balloon
So away we steal in a space mobile
A supersonic honeymoon
Leave your cares below, pull the switch, let's go!

Apeman
Apeman
Composer(s): Ray Davies
First release by: The Kinks - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
I think I'm sophisticated
'cos I'm living my life like a good homosapien
But all around me everybody's multiplying
Till they're walking round like flies man
So I'm no better than the animals sitting in their cages
In the zoo man
'cos compared to the flowers and the birds and the trees
I am an apeman
I think I'm so educated and I'm so civilized
'cos I'm a strict vegetarian
But with the over-population and inflation and starvation
And the crazy politicians
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore and make like an apeman
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape apeman
I'm an apeman I'm a king kong man I'm ape apeman
I'm an apeman
'cos compared to the sun that sits in the sky
Compared to the clouds as they roll by
Compared to the bugs and the spiders and flies
I am an apeman
In man's evolution he has created the cities and
The motor traffic rumble, but give me half a chance
And I'd be taking off my clothes and living in the jungle
'cos the only time that I feel at ease
Is swinging up and down in a coconut tree
Oh what a life of luxury to be like an apeman
I'm an ape, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman
I look out my window, but I can't see the sky
'cos the air pollution is fogging up my eyes
I want to get out of this city alive
And make like an apeman
Come and love me, be my apeman girl
And we will be so happy in my apeman world
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman
I'll be your tarzan, you'll be my jane
I'll keep you warm and you'll keep me sane
And we'll sit in the trees and eat bananas all day
Just like an apeman
I'm an apeman, I'm an ape apeman, I'm an apeman
I'm a king kong man, I'm a voo-doo man
I'm an apeman
I don't feel safe in this world no more
I don't want to die in a nuclear war
I want to sail away to a distant shore
And make like an apeman

Destination Love
Composer(s): Jerry Leiber - Mike Stoller
Performer(s): Wynonie Harris
and multiple other artists
Quart of oil, a gallon of gas
Baby, I sure do hope it'll last
Destination love, destination love
If I get stuck give me a shove
Destination love
I can't wait to see her smile
Only got about ten more miles
Destination love, destination love
If I get stuck give me a shove
Destination love
Well, I passed a truck, passed a bus
I must be doing fine
I'm so close I can almost feel
Her sweet lips on mine
If the front tire blows, I got a spare
If that one goes, I'll still get there
Destination love, destination love
If I get stuck give me a shove
Destination love
Well, I crossed the bridge, climbed the hill
It only steamed up twice
If this old car goes one more mile
I'll be in paradise
She'll be waiting there, I know
Left turn, right turn, here I go
Destination love, destination love
If I get stuck give me a shove
Destination love

Ich Zähle Täglich Meine Sorgen
Ich Zähle Täglich Meine Sorgen
(English Version: Heartaches By The Number (by Ray Price) - 1959))
Composer(s): Harlan Howard - Jean Nicolas
Performer(s): Peter Alexander
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, denn ich sorg mich sehr
Wenn ich denk du liebst mich nicht, lieb ich dich umso mehr
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, und lieb dich wie zuvor
Wenn ich nicht mehr zähle, weiss ich, dass ich dich verlor
Sorge Nummer eins in meinem Leben
das ist die Sorge, dass du von mir gehst
Und Sorge Nummer zwei ist, dass es bald 'nen andren gibt
den besser du verstehst und der dich liebt
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, denn ich sorg mich sehr
Wenn ich denk du liebst mich nicht, lieb ich dich umso mehr
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, und lieb dich wie zuvor
Wenn ich nicht mehr zähle, weiss ich, dass ich dich verlor
Sorge Nummer drei, das ist die Frage
Wie halt ich dich und wie gefall ich dir
Und wenn du wirklich bleibst
ja, was erwartest du von mir
Ja, das ist meine Sorge Nummer vier
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, denn ich sorg mich sehr
Wenn ich denk du liebst mich nicht, lieb ich dich umso mehr
Ich zähle täglich meine Sorgen, und lieb dich wie zuvor
Wenn ich nicht mehr zähle, weiss ich, dass ich dich verlor

Destination Inconnue
Destination Inconnue
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour - Pierre Roche
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Un jour de mai ou l'ennui me pesait
Pour vivre ma vie laissant ce qui m'oppresse
J'ai tout quitter sans chagrin ni regret
Puisque les voyages forment la jeunesse
Aux gens curieux j'ai répondu
"Destination inconnue"
J'ai pris le premier train
Qui partait le matin
Par hasard dans le train
Y'avait une file très bien
Comme le destin veille sur moi gentiment
Elle était justement dans mon compartiment
Le train en roulant faisait un vacarme infernal
Sur la banquette en bois on était plutôt mal
Et quand j'ai pris sa main, parlant avec douceur
Plus vite que le train allaient mes battements de coeur
D'un ton charmant un peu moqueur
En un instant j'ai pris son coeur
Puis proposai fort galamment:
"Venez avec moi au wagon-restaurant"
Sous le premier tunnel très fort je l'ai serrée
Sous le second tunnel un baiser fut volé
Puis nous sommes descendus dans une gare inconnue
Pour cacher notre amour dans un petit coin perdu
Chose bizarre
Un matin par hasard
Elle dû se lever du mauvais pied
Elle m'a dit: "pars!"
Moi d'un seul
Coup d'un seul
J'ai bondi du lit, je me suis habillé
J'ai tout quitté, J'ai tout perdu
Destination inconnue
J'ai pris le premier train qui partait le matin
J'avais envie de pleurer je ne me sentais pas bien
Comme le destin veille sur moi gentiment
Elle était face à moi dans mon compartiment
Le train en roulant faisait un vacarme infernal
Sur la banquette en bois on était plutôt mal
Et quand elle prit ma main pour se faire pardonner
Tout contre mon épaule elle s'est appuyée
J'étais si bien, je ne disais rien
Intéressé me laissant griser
Je l'écoutais
Et je goûtais
Les mots très doux que tout bas elle disait
Sous le premier tunnel très fort je l'ai serrée
Sous le second tunnel un baiser fut volé
Puis nous sommes descendus dans une gare inconnue
Pour cacher notre amour dans un petit coin perdu
Depuis ce jour nous ne nous sommes jamais quittés
Elle devint si gentille qu'elle a su me garder

Después Que Canta El Hombre
Después Que Canta El Hombre
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Después que canta, el hombre queda solo
solo en la soledad de su cabeza
solo en la soledad de las butacas
y una mortaja de aire hace silencio
Sabe que ahora, de pronto, se hace luego
aunque después que cante quede ciego
Se mira entonces la guitarra y se le guiña un ojo
Qué no sabrá del abandono la guitarra
Después que canta el hombre queda solo
pues cada uno regresa a sus pisadas
Le dejan las palabras en la alfombra
La hora de la palabra fue la escena
Sabe que ahora, de pronto, se hace luego
aunque después que cante quede ciego
Se mira entonces la guitarra y se le guiña un ojo
Qué no sabrá del abandono la guitarra
Después que canta, el hombre queda solo
sobreviviendo a igual incertidumbre
Pero de nuevo ordena sus conciertos
como un ágel postizo que insistiese
Sabe que ahora, de pronto, se hace luego
aunque después que cante quede ciego
Se mira entonces la guitarra y se le guiña un ojo
Qué no sabrá del abandono la guitarra

Apartment No. 9
Composer(s): Bobby Austin - Johnny Paycheck
Performer(s): Tammy Wynette
and multiple other artists
Just follow the stairway
To this lonely world of mine
You'll find me waitin' here
In apartment number nine
Not so very long ago
You walked away from me
And after all the plans we made
You decided to be free
Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine
I keep waitin' in this lonely room
Just in case you change your mind
You'll find me waitin' here
In apartment number nine
Loneliness surrounds me
Without your arms around me
And the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine
No, the sun will never shine
In apartment number nine

Después De Las Rupturas
Después De Las Rupturas
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Después de las rupturas
iniciada la tibia mansedumbre que sobrevive
brasas primeras del atardecer premonitorio
en el hervor de las memorias
Ahora en horas de escasos segundos
empiezan las piedras a ser mortales
y el viento, como insultos cansados
debilita el paisaje
Después de las rupturas
exánimes, se rompen ellas mismas
una a una
