Me Acosa El Carapalida


Me Acosa El Carapalida
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Me acosa el carapalida
que carga sobre mi
sobre mi pueblo libre
sobre mi dia feliz
me acosa con la espuela
el sable y el arnes
caballeria asesina de antes y despues
Me acosa el carapalida norteno por el sur
el este y el oeste, por cada latitud
me acosa el carapalida que ha dividido el sol
en hora de metralla y en hora de dolor
La tierra me quiere arrebatar
el agua me quiere arrebatar
el aire me quiere arrebatar
y solo fuego, y solo fuego voy a dar
Yo soy mi tierra, mi aire, mi agua, mi fuego
Me acosa el carapalida con el engano vil
con cuentas de colores, con trueque de uno a mil
me acosa con su elixir de la prostitucino
me acosa con la gloria perdida de su Dios
Me acosa el carapalida con su forma de ver
asu estetica, su angulo, su estilo, su saber
me acosa el carapalida con sintetizacion
y quiere hundirme el alma con tuercas de robot
La tierra...
Me acosa el carapalida con la guerra sutil
hasta que digo bast y carga sobre mi
me acosa con su moustro de radiactividad
su porvenir de arena, su muerte colosal
me acosa el carapalida que siempre me acoso
que acosa a mis hermanos, que acosa mi razon
Me acosa el carapalida que vive de acosar
hasta que todos juntos le demos su lugar
La tierra…

On Dirait


On Dirait
Composer(s): Françoise Hardy; Jean-Pierre Castelain
Performer(s): Françoise Hardy
le ciel s'est couvert
tes yeux sont moins vert
on dirait
le ciel s'est caché
tu t'es détaché
on dirait
et le ciel est comme toi
indécis, ne sachent pas
le ciel est tout gris
soudain tu t'ennuies
on dirait
le ciel s'est fâché
tu veux t'échapper
on dirait
et le ciel est comme toi
fatigué et loin de moi
et le ciel est comme toi
indécis, ne sachent pas
fatigué et loin de moi
le ciel change tout comme moi

Me About You


Me About You
Composer(s): Garry Bonner; Alan Gordon
Performer(s): The Turtles
and various other artists
Perhaps another time or maybe 'nother place
Could've eased my mind, would've never seen your face
Or heard about you
But now you call my name and your reality
Though it's hard to explain, I know I'll never be
Without you
I know nothing about you
But I know I don't doubt your love and I know that it's real
By God above I know I feel about you
Got a handful of gold and a pocketful of dreams
But a heart full of love and I know what it means
To be without you
Just sit by my side & share with me
All the feelings inside and the things you see
About you
I know Miss Lonely will be here today
Waiting for me; now the time is right, so hear me say
The from now on I'll stay about you
I know Miss Lonely will be here today
Waiting for me; now the time is right, so hear me say
The from now on I'll stay about you
About you, about you, about you

On Days Like These


On Days Like These
Composer(s): Don Black; Quincy Jones
Performer(s): Matt Monro;
and various other artists
Questi giorni quando vieni il belle sole
la la la la la-la-la-la la la la la
On days like these when skies are blue and fields are green
I look around and think about what might have been
and then I hear sweet music float around my head
as I recall the many things we left unsaid
its on days like these that I remember
singing songs and drinking wine
while your eyes played games with mine
on days like these I wonder what became of you
maybe today you are singing songs with someone new
I'd like to think you're walking by those willow trees
remembering the love we knew on days like these
its on days like these that I remember
singing songs and drinking wine
while your eyes played games with mine
on days like these I wonder what became of you
maybe today you are singing songs with someone new
Questi giorni quando vieni il belle sole
la la la la la-la-la-la

Me (Without You)


Me (Without You)
Composer(s): Andy Gibb
Performer(s): Andy Gibb
Without you
Stood alone on the edge of time
Out of sight but forever mine
Without you
Sometimes there's no forgetting the night
When we reached for the stars
Just to be where it's bright
But you left me behind
What a crazy goodbye
Without you
There ain't no love at all
And without you
There ain't no plans at all
Without you
Ev'rything's lost to the wind
You were the love I was in
How can I try to be me
Without you
Without you
Watching you take the world from me
Leaving me with a memory about you
Sometimes there's no forgetting the place
Where you told me goodbye
Like a slap in the face
Where you tore me apart
And I learned how to cry
Without you
There ain't no love at all
And without you
There ain't no plans at all
Without you
Ev'rything's lost to the wind
You were the love I was in
How can I try to be me
Without you
How can I try to be me
Without you
There ain't no love at all
And without you baby
There ain't no plans at all
Girl without you
Ev'rything's lost to the wind
You were the love I was in
How can I try to be me
Without you

On Danse Sur Ma Chanson


On Danse Sur Ma Chanson
Composer(s): Raymond Asso; Léo Poll
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
Ja voulu finir la chanson
Qu'au printemps j'avais commencée
Mais tu n'es plus à la maison
Et les fleurs sont tout's fanées
J'aurais dû chanter comm' les poètes
Avec de grands mots notre bel amour
Mais je n'ai pas su, ma chanson est faite
De tout petits mots, ceux de tous les jours
J'ai pris tout ce que tu disais
Amour, serment, toujours, jamais
Tendresse
Sur la splendeur de nos matins
Et sur la douceur de tes mains
Caresses
J'ai construit de beaux souvenirs
Avec le goût de mes désirs
Quand, fier de ton sourire vainqueur
Et ton regard un peu moqueur
Quand tu posais là sur mon cœur
Tes lèvres
Oui, j'ai dû, sur un vieux piano
Chercher l'air que j'aimais entendre
Et qui pleurait comme un sanglot
Mais personne n'a dû comprendre
Car cette chanson que je croyais faite
Pour chanter l'amour qui fut si doux
Je l'entends partout comme un air de fête
Et les gens ont l'air de rire de nous
Car, sur les mots qui tu disais
Amour, serment, toujours, jamais
On danse
Sur la splendeur de nos matins
Et sur la douceur de tes mains
On danse
Sur les plus jolis souvenirs
Et sur le goût de mon désir
On danse
Et sur ton sourire vainqueur
Sur ton regard un peu moqueur
Et sur la peine de mon cœur
On danse
Puisque, sur l'air que j'aimais tant
Que tu chantais si tristement
On danse
Puisque personne n'a compris
Que, sur les mots que tu m'as dit
On danse
C'est que cet amour si profond
Ne valait pas une chanson
Je pense...
Alors, j'ai voulu t'oublier
Quelqu'un m'a appris à danser
Et maintenant sur le passé
Je danse
Je danse...

McPherson Is Rehearsin' (To Swing)


McPherson Is Rehearsin' (To Swing)
Composer(s): Marion Sunshine
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald; Chick Webb
Oh McPherson is rehearsin'
And the bagpipes are reversin'
While McPherson is rehearsin' to swing
And from Edinburgh to Dundee
Every lad and every lassie
Knows McPherson is rehearsin' to swing
Och I dinna care said Sandy
If the elders now approve
I've a chick where plans are dandy
And I'm in a mellow groove
Now the bonnie bonnie lassies
With the kilties on their chassis
Have forgotten all about the highland fling
Young and old folks get together
And ther's truckin' in the heather
When McPherson is rehearsin' to swing
Och I dinna care said Sandy
If the elders now approve
I've a chick where plans are dandy
And I'm in a mellow groove
Now the bonnie bonnie lassies
With the kilties on their chassis
Have forgotten all about the highland fling
Young and old folks get together
And ther's truckin' in the heather
When McPherson is rehearsin' to swing

On Cherche Un Auguste


On Cherche Un Auguste
Composer(s): Robert Gall; Charles Dumont
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
"On cherche un Auguste"...
Pancarte en plein vent
Ecrite à la craie
On cherche un Auguste...
Je suis là devant
Sous le ciel mouillé
J'ai poussé le rideau
Du cirque en plein air
Qui fait le gros dos
Sous le vent d'hiver
On cherche un Auguste...
J'ai demandé le patron
Qui dormait au fond
Il m'a dit "C'est juste"
Rajustant son melon
"Si tu veux, causons
- Pour ce que vous cherchez
Je ferais bien votre affaire
Je connais des histoires
J'amuse les copains
J' suis un boute-en-train
Comme disait ma mère
Et puis j'aimerais bien
Voyager au loin
- On cherche un Auguste...
Mais faut pas, mon garçon
Te faire d'illusions
Car la place d'un Auguste
Comme situation
C'est pas le vrai filon
Les habits fripés
La figure blême
Les claques sur le nez
Jamais de "Je t'aime"
Pour les grands voyages
On fait dans l'année
La Lièvre et la Lier
Et pour toute fortune
T'as le clair de lune
Et les poches trouées
...Eh ! L'homme !
Ben, ne t' sauves pas comme ça..."
...On cherche un Auguste...

McNamara's Band


McNamara's Band
Composer(s): Shamus O'Connor; John J. Stamford;
Guy Bonham; Wamp Carlson; Red Latham
Performer(s): Bing Crosby
and various other artists
Oh, me name is MacNamara, I'm the leader of the band
Although we're few in numbers, we're the finest in the land
We play at wakes and weddings and at every fancy ball
And when we play the funerals, we play the March from Saul
Oh, the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute and the music is somethin' grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
Right now we are rehearsin' for a very swell affair
The annual celebration, all the gentry will be there
When General Grant to Ireland came he took me by the hand
Says he, "I never saw the likes of MacNamara's Band"
Oh, the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute and the music is somethin' grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
Oh, my name is Uncle Julius and from Sweden I did come
To play with MacNamara's Band and beat the big bass drum
And when I march along the street the ladies think I'm grand
They shout, "There's Uncle Julius playin' with an Irish band!"
Oh, I wear a bunch of shamrocks and a uniform of green
And I'm the funniest lookin' Swede that you have ever seen
There is O'Brians, O'Ryans, O'Sheehans and Meehans, they come from Ireland
But, by yimminy, I'm the only Swede in MacNamara's Band
Oh, the drums go bang and the cymbals clang and the horns they blaze away
McCarthy pumps the old bassoon while I the pipes do play
And Henessee Tennessee tootles the flute and the music is somethin' grand
A credit to old Ireland is MacNamara's band
That's MacNamara

Barry Mann; Mike Stoller; Cynthia Weil

They say the neon lights are bright on Broadway

McGee's Backyard
McGee's Backyard
Composer(s): Charles H. Hoyt; Charles Zimmermann
Performer(s): Charles Reed
When I called on Miss McGee, I did it surreptitiously
And things were far from pleasant when I came to say goodnight
Her father by the front door was laying for me viciously
While Towser in the back yard was spoiling for a fight
I went out the back way, the dog I gave preference
He was right on hand for me and met me with a growl
Nicely then I spoke to him with soothing words of deference
But up he walked behind me and at once got foul
I grabbed
He grabbed
Towser got the best of it
We both grabbed together
The dog grabbed very hard
I got one coattail
Towser got the rest of it
And I left my Sunday breeches in McGee's back yard
Old McGee the trousers found, he patched a dozen holes or more
And when he wore a long tail coat they looked all nice and right
He thought he'd struck a good scheme for starting up a clothing store
And layed to do a young man who called another night
He went out the back way to give his Towser chain enough
The moon was hid behind a cloud, the dog could scarcely see
He didn't know his master, but he saw the trousers plain enough
It wasn't half a jiffy until he found McGee
Dog grabbed
Man grabbed
Towser got the best of it
They both grabbed together
The dog grabbed very hard
The fence got the coattail
Towser got the rest of it
And you couldn't find the breeches in McGee's back yard
Old McGee was very sore a strong explosive then he bought
And with an old tin kettle he prepared a deadly bomb
The dog had made it hot for him and for the dog he'd make it hot
So he tied it to the dog's tail to steel him to the tomb
Dog espied a black cat, made a savage dash at it
Only takes a slight blow the powder to ignite
The kettle struck a brick wall, came an awful crash with it
Things around that back yard were scattered out of sight
Dog flew
Man flew
Bomb secured the best of it
They both flew together
The dog flew very hard
The kettle struck the hilltop
Dog a mile to west of it
And you couldn't find a vestige in McGee's back yard

On And On And On


On And On And On
Composer(s): Benny Andersson; Björn Ulvaeus
Performer(s): Mike Love
I was at a party and this fella said to me
"Something bad is happening, I'm sure you do agree
People care for nothing, no respect for human rights
Evil times are coming, we are in for darker nights"
I said, "Who are you to talk about impending doom?"
He got kinda wary as he looked around the room
He said, "I'm a minister, a big shot in the state"
I said, "I just can't believe it, boy I think it's great
Brother can you tell me what is right and what is wrong?"
He said, "Keep on rocking baby, 'til the night is gone"
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
'Til the night is gone
Over in the corner I could see this other guy
He was kinda flirty, he was giving me the eye
So I took advantage of the fact that I'm a star
Shook my hair and took a casual stroll up to the bar
And as sure as hell this guy was coming up to me
He said, "Who am I and who are you and who are we?
What's our situation, do we have some time for us?"
I said I was not exactly waiting for the bus
He said, "If you're going somewhere can I come along?"
I said, "Keep on rocking baby, 'til the night is gone"
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
Keep on rocking baby
'Til the night is gone
On and on and on
'Til the night is gone

Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Era suave aquel incienso
de olor a eternidad
Mayo Mayo Mayo...
era bueno ¿verdad?
Era grande aquel imperio
de amor y libertad...
Mayo Mayo Mayo...
era fuerte ¿verdad?
El tiempo pasa y me enamora...
El tiempo pasa arrasa quema y deteriora
el viento call... ¿porque?
Y en un momento todo olvido me devora
No soy el héroe
que dió sus alas y se puso a amar...
Mayo ¿no lo entiendes?
no te mientas y mírame
No soy la isla que
tu fantasía quiso imaginar
Mayo ciego escucha
Mayo roto convéncete
Era injusto aquel infierno
Soberbia y ¿ahora que?
Mayo Mayo Mayo
qué locura que fué...
Mayo Mayo Mayo
la locura se fué...

On And On


On And On
Composer(s): Stephen Bishop
Performer(s): Stephen Bishop
Down in Jamaica
They go lots of pretty women
Steal your money
Then they break your heart
Lonesome sue, she's in love with ol'Sam
Take him from the fire into the frying pan
On and on
She just keeps on trying
And she smiles when she feels like crying
On and on, On and on, On and on
Poor ol'Jimmy
Sits alone in the moonlight
Saw his woman kiss another man
So he takes a ladder
Steals the stars from the sky
Puts on sinatra and starts to cry
On and on
He just keeps on trying
And he smiles when he feels like crying
On and on, On and on, On and on
when the first time is the last time
It can make you feel so bad
But if you know it, show it
Hold on tight
Don't let her say: Goodnight
Got the sun on my shoulders
And my toes in the sand
My woman's left me for the some other man
Aw, but I don't care
I'll just dream and stay tan
Toos up my heart to see where it lands
On and on
I just keep on trying
And I smile when I feel like dying
On and on (9x)

Mayfair


Mayfair
Composer(s): Nick Drake
Performer(s): Nick Drake
Mayfair strange in the morning light
Mayfair strange in the summer night
Mayfair strangest in the afternoon
Mayfair stretching far above
full of fame but lacking love
Could it be we see the Mayfair moon?
Mayfair strange across the park
In the day or in the dark
There's no need to walk or even run
Mayfair faces clean and nice
But beauty here is cold as ice
Could it be we see the Mayfair sun?
Mayfair strange at every hour
Hidden frowns with mystic power
Starry heights and golden throne
Down below you're on you're own
Mayfair strange for passers-by
Sights of wonder for the eye
Could it be they'll pass by again?
Mayfair calling far and near
For even trees are wealthy here
Could it be we hear the Mayfair rain?

On An Island


On An Island
Composer(s): David Gilmour
Performer(s): David Gilmour
Remember that night, white stairs in the moonlight
They walked here too, through empty playground, this ghost's town
Children again on rusty swings getting higher
Sharing a dream on an island it felt right
We lay side by side between the moon and the tide
Mapping the stars for awhile
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and flow, let it go
Feel the warmth beside you
Remember that night, the warmth and the laughter
Candles burn though the church was deserted
At dawn we went down through empty streets to the harbor
Dreamers may leave but they're here everafter
Let the night surround you
We're halfway to the stars
Ebb and Flow, let it go
Feel the warmth beside you
