Teorema
Teorema
Composer(s): José Luis Perales - Miguel Bosé
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Que difícil es hablar de amor
sin caer en la definición
sin poder evitar ser pedante o vulgar
señora que quiere de mi?
Ahora bien
por mi no pasa de hoy
lo que le quiero
después de tanto ensayar
pero me empieza a mirar
se me hace un nudo en la voz
me lo hecha todo a perder
me falta valor
Señora es usted
un teorema de amor
un punto de luz
del infinito al dolor
y yo, yo no se que soy
Hay que trabajar, hay que crecer
por la noche tengo que estudiar
y no puedo dormir por que pienso
en usted señora q quiere de mi
Míreme
y deje ya de jugar
que no le voy a pedir
lo que quiere contar
me basta verla llegar
cada mañana puntual
y aunque no me hable yo se
que viene por mi
Señora es usted
un teorema de amor
un punto de luz
del infinito al dolor
y yo solo se que
usted es para mi
un teorema de amor
un punto de luz
del infinito al dolor
y yo, yo no se que soy...

My pretty girl, my pretty girl
I'm always dreaming of you
My pretty girl, my pretty girl
My darling, how I love you
Promise me you will never leave me
Promise me you will never grieve me
Promise me you will not decieve me
Oh, my pretty girl
Please give me just one kiss
Once we've kissed, you won't miss
For your kiss brings such bliss
to my lonely heart
My pretty girl, my pretty girl
I'm always dreaming of you
My pretty girl, my pretty girl
My darling, how I love you
Promise me you will never leave me
Promise me you will never grieve me
Promise me you will not decieve me
Oh, my pretty girl
As we dance cuddle up and squeze me
As we dance cuddle up and please me
As we dance cuddle up and tease me
Oh, my pretty girl
Dance with me through the night
Let my arms hold you tight
And with dawns early light
Let me take you home
As we dance cuddle up and squeze me
As we dance cuddle up and please me
As we dance cuddle up and tease me
Oh, my pretty girl

Woody Herman; Sara Isaksson; Hoops McCann
Cold, daring
No flies on me
Sorry, angel
I must take what I see
Green earrings

The rings of rare design

The look in your eyes
I don't mind
Greek medallion
Sparkles when you smile
Sorry, angel
I get hungry like a child
Green earrings
I remember
The rings of rare design
I remember
The look in your eyes
I don't mind

Teo
Teo
Composer(s): Pablo Guerrero - Hilario Camacho
Performer(s): Pablo Guerrero
Fue un disparo de tiempo
lo que hizo añicos su canción
su peonza de viento
su caballo de plata o de cartón
Fue un disparo de miedo
cuando vio
un mundo duro y solo
reino del diente y la pistola
Y no
entonces no quiso creer
para no ser como ellos
Caminando entre dunas
para siempre niño, para siempre poeta
Mapas desconocidos
y un sombrero de sombra a la cabeza
Amigo
Teo, amigo
hasta qué hondo llegó
tu asombro y tu desprecio
caminante increíble
de la desolación
Entonces no quiso crecer
para no ser como ellos

My Prayer
My Prayer
Composer(s): Georges Boulanger; Jimmy Kennedy
Originally performed by: Glenn Miller
Covered by various other artists
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of the day
In a dream that's devine
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With a world far away
And your lips close to mine
Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same
For as long as we live
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer
My prayer is to linger with you
At the end of each day
In a dream that's devine
My prayer is a rapture in blue
With a world far away
And your lips close to mine
Tonight while our hearts are aglow
Oh tell me the words that I'm longing to know
My prayer and the answer you give
May they still be the same
For as long as we live
That you'll always be there
At the end of my prayer

Green Dolphin Street
Green Dolphin Street
Performer(s): Ella Fitzgerald & Joe Pass
Lover, one lovely day
Love came planning to stay
Green Dolphin Street supplied the setting
The setting for nights beyond forgetting
And through these moments apart
Memories live in my heart
When I recall the love I found on
I could kiss the ground on
Green Dolphin Street

Green Door

Performer(s): Shakin' Stevens;
and various other artists
Midnight
One more night without sleepin'
Uuh, Watchin'
Till that mornin' comes creepin'
Green door
What's that secret you're keepin'?
There's an old piano and they play it hot
Behind the Green Door (Green Door)
Don't know what they're doin' but they laugh a lot
Behind the gren door! (Green Door)
Wish they'd let me in so I could find out
What's behind the Green Door! (Green Door)
Knocked once
Tried to tell them I'd been there
Door slammed!
Hospitality's thin there
Wonder
Just what's going on in there
Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smoky cloud
Behind the green door (Green Door)
When I said 'Joe sent me' someone laughed out loud
Behind the green door (Uuh Green Door)
All I want to do is join the happy crowd
Behind the green door! (Green Door)

Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out
Tenth Avenue Freeze-Out
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1975
Tear drops on the city
Bad Scooter searching for his groove
Seem like the whole world walking pretty
And you can't find the room to move
Well everybody better move over, that's all
I'm running on the bad side
And I got my back to the wall
Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out
I'm stranded in the jungle
Taking all the heat they was giving
The night is dark but the sidewalk's bright
And lined with the light of the living
From a tenement window a transistor blasts
Turn around the corner things got real quiet real fast
She hit me with a Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Tenth Avenue freeze-out
And I'm all alone, I'm all alone
And kid you better get the picture
And I'm on my own, I'm on my own
And I can't go home
When the change was made uptown
And the Big Man joined the band
From the coastline to the city
All the little pretties raise their hands
I'm gonna sit back right easy and laugh
When Scooter and the Big Man bust this city in half
With a Tenth Avenue freeze-out, Tenth Avenue freeze-out
Tenth Avenue freeze-out...

Un'estate Fa
Un'estate Fa
Dutch & French Titles:
Zoals Een Mooi Verhaal; Un Beau Roman; Une Belle Histoire
Composer(s): Pierre Delanoë; Michel Fugain; F. Califano
Performer(s): Mina
and various other artists
(Originally performed by: Michel Fugain)
Un'estate fa la storia di noi due
era un pò come una favola
ma l'estate va e porta via con sè
anche il meglio delle favole
La tua strada è là ma ci dividerà
la mia strada della vacanza
segnerà la tua lontananza
Un'estate fa non c'eri che tu
ma l'estate somiglia a un gioco
è stupenda ma dura poco
Torno a casa mia e torni pure tu
sono cose che succedono
un'estate in più che mi regalerà
un autunno malinconico senza te
E finice qui la storia di noi due
due amanti che si perdono
Un'estate fa la storia di noi due
era un pò come una favola

Green Acres
Green Acres
Composer(s): Victor Mizzy
Performer(s): Flatt & Scruggs;
and various other artists
Green acres is the place for me
Farm livin’ is the life for me
Land spreadin’ out so far and wide
Keep Manhattan, just give me that countryside
New York is where I’d rather stay
I get allergic smelling hay
I just adore a penthouse view
Dah-ling I love you but give me Park Avenue
The chores
The stores
Fresh air
Times Square
You are my wife
Good bye, city life
Green Acres we are there!

Tenterfield Saddler
Tenterfield Saddler
Composer(s): Peter Alan
Performer(s): Peter Alan; Olivia Newton-John; Todd McKenny
The late George Woolnough
Worked on High Street and lived on Manners
Fifty two years he sat on his verandah
And made his saddles
And if you had questions about sheep, or flowers or dogs
You'd just ask the saddler, who lived without sin
They're building a library for him
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler
Turn your head
Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
The son of George Woolnough
Went off and got married and had a way baby
Something was wrong and it's easier to drink then go crazy
And if there were questions about why the end was so sad
Well George had no answers about why a son
Ever has need of a gun
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler
Turn your head
Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
The Grandson of George has been all round the world
And lives no special place
Changed his last name and he married a girl
With an interesting face
He'd almost forgotten them both
Because in the life that he leads
There's nowhere for George and his library
Or the son with his gun to belong
Except in this song
Time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler
Turn your head
Ride again jackaroo, think I see kangaroo up ahead
Oh time is a meddler, Tenterfield Saddler
Make your bed
Fly away cockatoo, down on the ground emu up ahead
Oh time is a traveller, Tenterfield Saddler
Turn your head
Fly away cockatoo, down on the ground emu up ahead

My Pony Boy
My Pony Boy
Composer(s): Charlie O'Donnell; Bobbie Heath
Performer(s): Lillian Lorraine
Way out west, in a nest from the rest
dwelt the bestest little Bronco Boy
He could ride, he could glide o'er the prairies like an arrow
Every maid in the glade was afraid
he would trade his little heart away
So each little peach made a nice little speech of love to him
Pony Boy, Pony Boy, won't you be my Tony Boy?
Don't say no, here we go off across the plains
Marry me, carry me right away with you
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, whoa!
My Pony Boy
Till one day, out that way, so they say, came to stay a fluffy ruffle girl
She made eyes, she surprised, and he found his heart was lassoed
When he thought he was caught, how he fought, but she taught this pony boy to love
But he balked when she talked of a trip to New York, so she sang to him
Pony Boy, Pony Boy, won't you be my Tony Boy?
Don't say no, here we go off across the plains
Marry me, carry me right away with you
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, whoa!
My Pony Boy
Giddy up, giddy up, giddy up, whooooooa!
My Pony Boy

Great Speckled Bird
Great Speckled Bird
Composer(s): Roy Carter; Guy Smith
Performer(s): Roy Acuff;
and various other artists
What a beautiful thought I am thinking
Concerning a great speckled bird
Remember her name is recorded
On the pages of God's Holy Word
All the other birds are flocking 'round her
And she is despised by the squad
But the great speckled bird in the Bible
Is one with the great church of God
All the other churches are against her
They envy her glory and fame
They hate her because she is chosen
And has not denied Jesus' name
Desiring to lower her standard
They watch every move that she makes
They long to find fault with her teachings
But really they find no mistake
She is spreading her wings for a journey
She's going to leave by and by
When the trumpet shall sound in the morning
She'll rise and go up in the sky
In the presence of all her despisers
With a song never uttered before
She will rise and be gone in a moment
Till the great tribulation is o'er
I am glad I have learned of her meekness
I am proud that my name is on her book
For I want to be one never fearing
The face of my Savior to look
When He cometh descending from heaven
On the cloud that He writes in His Word
I'll be joyfully carried to meet Him
On the wings of that great speckled bird

Tentando A Diana
Tentando A Diana
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos - Alejadro Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Ella dijo que no
volvió a casa sin llorar
él le pidió perdón
mandó rosas
en signo de paz
A ella no le alcanzó
y los dos se dejaron de ver
pasado un mes
escuchar su voz
en el contestador
el mismo mensaje
una y otra vez
solo el cielo sabe que pasó
y es que algo esta
y es que algo esta
Ah! Tentando a Diana
Ah! Tentando a Diana
Ella dijo que si
y propuso
hora y lugar
él se porto muy bien
y lo hicieron sin hablar
jóvenes cuerpos
en la fábula del amor
Volvió a casa
Subió corriendo a su habitación
mamá y papá no la vieron llegar
y ella guardó su secreto en el mar
una generación mas
Ah! Tentando a Diana
Ah! Tentando a Diana
Ah! Tentando a Diana
Ah! Tentando a Diana

Une Belle Histoire
Une Belle Histoire (aka Un beau roman)
Dutch & Italian Titles:
Zoals Een Mooi Verhaal; Un'estate Fa
Composer(s): Michel Fugain; Pierre Delanoë
Originally performed by: Michel Fugain
Covered by various other artists
C'est un beau roman, c'est une belle histoire
C'est une romance d'aujourd'hui
Il rentrait chez lui là-haut vers le brouillard
Elle descendait dans le midi, le midi
Ils se sont trouvés au bord du chemin
Sur l'autoroute des vacances
C'était sans doute un jour de chance
Ils avaient le ciel à portée de main
Un cadeau de la providence
Alors pourquoi penser au lendemain
Ils se sont cachés dans un grand champ de blé
Se laissant porter par les courants
Se sont racontés leurs vies qui commençaient
Ils n'étaient encore que des enfants, des enfants
Qui s'étaient trouvés au bord du chemin
Sur l'autoroute des vacances
C'était sans doute un jour de chance
Qui cueillir le ciel aux creux de leurs mains
Comme on cueille la providence
Refusant de penser au lendemain
C'est un beau roman, c'est une belle histoire
C'est une romance d'aujourd'hui
Il rentrait chez lui là-haut vers le brouillard
Elle descendait dans le midi, le midi
Ils se sont quittés au bord du matin
Sur l'autoroute des vacances
C'était fini le jour de chance
Ils reprirent alors chacun leur chemin
Saluèrent la providence en se faisant un signe de la main
Il rentra chez lui là-haut vers le brouillard
Elle est descendue là-bas dans le midi
C'est un beau roman, c'est une belle histoire
C'est une romance d'aujourd'hui

Great Mid-West
Great Mid-West
Composer(s): John Cougar
Performer(s): John Cougar
Everything is slower here, everybody's got a union card
They get up on Sunday and go to church of their choice
Come back home cook out in the backyard
And they call this the Great Midwest
Where the cornfields row and flow
They're all 5 years ahead of their time
Or 25 behind, I just don't know
All the young men talk about their 4 wheel drives
And how much money they're gonna make on Friday night
And, they like to brag about how they mistreat their girlfriends
Hey, let's get drunk, party it up, start a fight
And they call this the Great Midwest
Sure make a hell of a car
And the old hearts, they race their way through the night
The upheaval of who they really are
Growin' up under normal conditions, television and radio
That's just about all of this whole world
That any of us get to see, get to know
And they call this the Great Midwest
Where you sacrifice your body and soul
And no one really wants to get even
Most of us find it hard enough just lettin' go
Don't get me wrong I ain't complaining
I ain't braggin' nor do I mean to place blame
That's just the way things are around here
And there's a future carryin' my name on it
Sayin' hey man, you gonna stick around here you better get on it
If you're gonna stick around here you better make yourself some real good friends
Well I wasn't born with a silver spoon in my mouth
So I can't talk about the big city life
But if you wanna talk about bein' bored and runnin'
Away from yourself, hell I talk to you all night
And they call this the Great Midwest
Where livin' is just gettin' by
And people trade in their happiness
For a smokestack, a big money deal in the sky

Tennessee Wig Walk
Tennessee Wig Walk
Composer(s): Larry Coleman - Norman Gimbel
Performer(s): Bonnie Lou; Dan Zanes
I’m a bow-legged chicken, I’m a knock kneed hen
Never been so happy since I don’t know when
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk
To a tune on the fiddle on a hardwood floor
Though I’m broke and weary and my back is sore
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk
Put your toes together, your knees apart
Bend your back, get ready to start
Flap your elbows just for luck
Then you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck
Come and dance with me honey, tap your toes and glide
And we’ll always be together side by side
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk
I’m a bow-legged chicken, I’m a knock kneed hen
Never been so happy since I don’t know when
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk
To a tune on the fiddle on a hardwood floor
Though I’m broke and weary and my back is sore
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk
Put your toes together, your knees apart
Bend your back, get ready to start
Flap your elbows just for luck
Then you wiggle and you waddle like a baby duck
Come and dance with me honey, tap your toes and glide
And we’ll always be together side by side
I walk with a wiggle and a giggle and a squawk
Doing the Tennessee wig walk

Ik zoek naar mooie zinnen, over liefde en beminnen
Als ik denk aan jou
Ik droom van blauwe zeeen, van de mooiste orchideen
En van eeuwige trouw
Ik maak voor jou gedichten, waar je zeker voor zal zwichten
Als ik ze zeggen zou
Maar dan verberg ik alles met dat afgezaagde zinnetje
"Ik hou van jou"
Op hetzelfde ogenblik, begrijp ik dadelijk vol schrik
Ik heb je droom verstoord
Op het spannendste moment, wanneer je heel dicht bij me bent
Geef ik geen enkel woord
Ik zou heel veel willen zeggen, om je duidelijk uit te leggen
Hoeveel ik droom over jou
Maar alle mooie woorden, die je duizend maal al hoorde
Klinken toch veel te flauw
Hoewel ik het steeds weer probeer, vergeet toch iedere keer
Wat ik je zeggen wou
En dan bederf ik alles met dat afgezaagde zinnetje
"Ik hou van jou"
Lalala
Hoewel ik het steeds weer probeer, vergeet toch iedere keer
Wat ik je zeggen wou
En dan bederf ik alles met dat afgezaagde zinnetje
"Ik hou van jou"
Ik hou van jou
Ik hou van jou
Ik hou van jou
Ik hou van jou
