Blue Pacific Blues
Blue Pacific Blues
Composer(s): Lester Lee - Ned Washington
Performer(s): Jo Ann Greer
I'm gettin' the blue pacific blues
The feelin' ya get from real bad news
I wanna hear bells, I wanna see trains
I get in this mood whenever it rains
I'm gettin' the blues
Alone in the dark and sultry night
Ya'd think of the times ya ain't done right
To add to the fact your feelin' so bad
the cry of the birds keeps drivin' you mad
I got the blues
Ya lie awake and how you wish that it was mornin'
and then ya smoke a hundred cigarettes or more
That devil rain continues poundin' at your window
And the tropic winds, keep howlin' at your door
Because of all the rain and mud
The feel of the place gets in your blood
But deep in the night there comes unawares
the terrible thought that nobody cares
Your back with the blues-again
To be even more specific
You've got what they call-the blue pacific blues

Cachito
Cachito
Composer(s): Consuelo Velázquez
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
and multiple other artists
Cachito, Cachito, Cachito mio
Pedazo de cielo que Diós me dió
Te miro y te miro y al fin
Bendigo bendigo la suerte de ser tu amor
Me preguntan por que eres mi cachito
Y yo siento muy bonito al responder
Por que eres de mi vida un pedazito
Que yo quiero como a nadie he de querer
Cachito ... cachito mio
Tu eres el amorsito de mamá ... y de papá
Cachito ... Cachito mio
Tu eres el amorsito de papá ... y de mamá
A tu lado yo no sê lo que es tristeza
Y las horas se me pasan sin sentir
Tu me miras y yo pierdo la cabeza
Y lo único que puedo es repetir

Fado
Fado
Composer(s): Michele Vendome; Henri Decker
Performer(s): Dalida
Fado, fado
Le Portugal te doit ces nuits blanches
Quand on fond de l'ombre tu te penches
Offrant ta fraîcheur sous le ciel chaud
Fado, fado
Le soir sur la place on se rassemble
Et dés que ta voix ce fait entendre
Toutes les mères rythment le fado
Tous les cœurs
Te confis leurs espoirs et leurs peines
Le bonheur ce confond enfin avec les pleurs
Grâce au
Fado, fado
Quand la femme au châle noir te chante
C'est tout un monde que l'on invente
Rien que pour un refrain de fado
La la la
Fado, fado
Pour deux étrangers venus t'entendre
Le bonheur ne s'est pas fait attendre
Car l'amour aime bien le fado
Fado, fado
On s'est regardé sans rien ce dire
Aussitôt tu fleuris en sourire
Nos cœurs ce sont compris sans un mot
Dans ma main
En tremblant il pose sa main douce
Et soudain pour nos deux cœurs
Il ne dit plus rien
Que le
Fado, fado
Rythmons cet amour devenu notre
Nous sommes partis l'un contre l'autre
Tandis que s'éloigne le fado
Fado, fado, fado

That's My Home (Louis Armstrong)
That's My Home
Composer(s): Ben Ellison - Leon Rene - Otis Rene
Performer(s): Louis Armstrong
When sunset in the sky
And flowers never die, yeas
And friends don't pass you by
Because that's my home
Oh where the folks say howdedo
And they really mean it too
Where mama's love is true
Because that's my home
I'm always welcomed back
No matter where I roam
Just a ltttle old shack to me
Is home sweet home
Where the swanny river flows
Where the shady pine trees grow
Then I know that's my home

Caché Derrière Mes Poings
Caché Derrière Mes Poings
Composer(s): Giles Thibaut - Jean Renard
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
J'ai, caché derrière mes poings
J'ai vu Joe Les Grandes Dents
Monsieur 120 pour cent
Caché au premier rang
Ses cent kilos tassés
Dans une place à 1000 francs
Quand il a vu ma droite
Il a jeté son cigare
Et dans ses yeux j'ai vu
Des valises de dollars
J'ai vu qu'il me fallait
Gagner ce soir
Caché, caché derrière mes poings
J'ai vu madame la foule
Avec monsieur les gens
M'insulte au bord des gants
Prêt à me faire souffrir
Ou bien à m'applaudir
À moitié fossoyeur
Et à moitié vampire
Et dans leurs yeux j'ai vu
J'ai vu des mises à mort
J'ai vu qu'il me fallait
Gagner ce soir
Caché, caché derrière mes poings
J'ai vu l'homme à abattre
On était frères ennemis
Si c'est pas moi c'est lui
Et j'étais l'ascenseur
Et lui le toboggan
Quand y a un homme qui monte
Y en a un qui descend
Et dans ses yeux j'ai vu
Un loup devenir chien
Et j'ai vu que j'allais
Gagner ce soir
Mesdames, mesdemoiselles, messieurs
Ce soir au célèbre Palais des Sports de Paris
Grand combat international de poids moyen
En dix reprises de trois minutes
À ma droite
Directement venu d'Amérique
Et candidat au titre de Champion du Monde
Le bombardier noir de New-York
Lesther Wilson
À ma gauche
72 kilos 500
L'actuel Champion du Monde des poids moyens
Johnny Hallyday
Caché, caché derrière mes poings
J'ai vu au troisième rang
Une fille qui s'en allait
Comme un fou j'ai crié
Alors elle s'est retournée
Et dans ses yeux j'ai vu
Ce qu'elle pensait de moi
Un homme sans foi ni loi
Qui à la mort aux doigts
J'ai vu
Que j'avais
Perdu ce soir

Faded Love
Faded Love
Composer(s): Bob Wills; Johnnie Lee Wills
Performer(s): Patsy Cline;
and various other artists
As I look at the letters
That you wrote to me
It's you that I'm thinking of
As I read the lines
That to me were so sweet
I remember our faded love
I miss you, darling
More and more, every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat
I still think of you
And remember our faded love
I think of the past
And all the pleasures we had
As I watch the mating of the doves
It was in the springtime that you said goodbye
I remember our faded love
I miss you, darling
More and more every day
As heaven would miss the stars above
With every heartbeat
I still think of you
And remember our faded love

That's My Girl
That’s My Girl
Composer(s): Duke Ellington - Ray Ellington - Barbara Tobias
Performer(s): Nat King Cole
That’s my girl, Take a look at her she belongs to me
Yes that’s my girl, hand off, don’t touch
She looks just like an angel
But she’s human all the same
So I’m not taking chances
I won’t tell her address or even her name
‘Cos that’s my girl
I’m adding her to my family
And I love that girl and everything’s fine
So until the day that she says “Yes”
I’m keeping my fingers crossed
‘Cos that’s my girl, and she’s gonna stay mine
That’s my girl, you hear me
I’m adding her to my family
And I love that girl and everything’s fine
So until the day that she says “Yes”
I’m keeping my fingers crossed
‘Cos that’s my girl and she’s gonna stay mine
She’s all mine, every curve and line
And even those dark brow curls
Now lay off... that’s my girl

Caçada
Caçada
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque; Bebel Gilberto; Mestre Ambrósio
Não conheço seu nome ou paradeiro
Adivinho seu rastro e cheiro
Vou armado de dentes e coragem
Vou morder sua carne selvagem
Varo a noite sem cochilar, aflito
Amanheço imitando o seu grito
Me aproximo rondando a sua toca
E ao me ver você me provoca
Você canta a sua agonia louca
Água me borbulha na boca Minha presa rugindo sua raça
Pernas se debatendo e o seu fervor
Hoje é o dia de graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador
Eu me espicho no espaço feito um gato
Pra pegar você, bicho do mato
Saciar a sua avidez mestiça
Que ao me ver se encolhe e me atiça
Que num mesmo impulso me expulsa e abraça
Nossas peles grudando de suor
Hoje é o dia da graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador
De tocaia fico a espreitar a fera
Logo dou-lhe o bote certeiro
Já conheço seu dorso de gazela
Cavalo brabo montado em pelo
Dominante, não se desembaraça
Ofegante, é dona do seu senhor
Hoje é o dia da graça
Hoje é o dia da caça e do caçador

Factory Girl
Factory Girl
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
Performer(s): The Rolling Stones;
and various other artists
Waiting for a girl who's got curlers in her hair
Waiting for a girl she has no money anywhere
We get buses everywhere
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and her knees are much too fat
Waiting for a girl who wears scarves instead of hats
Her zipper's broken down the back
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she gets me into fights
Waiting for a girl we get drunk on Friday night
She's a sight for sore eyes
Waiting for a factory girl
Waiting for a girl and she's got stains all down her dress
Waiting for a girl and my feet are getting wet
She ain't come out yet
Waiting for a factory girl

That's My Desire
That's My Desire
Composer(s): Helmy Kressa - Carroll Loveday
First release by: Russell Wooding's Red Caps - 1931
Covered by multiple other artists
To spend one night with you
In our old rendezvous
And reminisce with you
That's my desire
To meet where gypsies play
Down in that dim café
And dance till break of day
That's my desire
We'll sip a little glass of wine
And I'll gaze into your eyes divine
I'll feel the touch of your lips
Pressing on mine
To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
"Cherie, I love you so"
"You're my desire"
To hear you whisper low
Just when it's time to go
"Cherie, I love you so"
"You're my desire"
"You're my desire"

Cable A Tierra
Cable A Tierra
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Fito Páez; Abel Pintos
Si estas entre volver no volver
si ya metiste demasiado en tu nariz
si estas como cegado de poder
tirate un cable a tierra
y si tu corazón ya no va mas
si ya no existe conexión con los demás
si estas igual que un barco en alta mar
tirate un cable a tierra
y yo estoy acercándome hasta vos
bajo la luna, bajo la luna
las cosas son así
tengo el teléfono del freak
que esta deseoso de volarte la cabeza
en un par de minutos sale el sol
si ya no hay nada que anestesie tu dolor
si no llegas, si no alcanzas a verme
tirate un cable a tierra
no creas que perdió sentido todo
no dificultes la llegada del amor
no hables de mas, escucha el corazón
ese es el cable a tierra

Factory
Factory
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen;
Arizona Smoke Revue; Kevin Kinsella;
Melissa McClelland; The Mighty Echoes
Early in the morning factory whistle blows
Man rises from bed and puts on his clothes
Man takes his lunch, walks out in the morning light
It's the working, the working, just the working life
Through the mansions of fear
through the mansions of pain
I see my daddy walking
through them factory gates in the rain
Factory takes his hearing, factory gives him life
The working, the working, just the working life
End of the day, factory whistle cries
Men walk through these gates with death in their eyes
And you just better believe, boy
somebody's gonna get hurt tonight
It's the working, the working, just the working life

First release by: Lou Millet & His Melody Ramblers - 1951
Covered by multiple other artists
A night with no moonlight
A day with no sun
A plane with no pilot
A watch that won't run
A tree with no branches
A rose with no dew
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you
A train with no whistle
A car with no gas
A well with no water
A show with no cast
A love with no future
A sky with no blue
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you
A bank with no money
A top that won't spin
A book with no story
A love I can't win
A chair with no bottom
A rig with no crew
A song with no music
That's me without you
A train with no whistle
A car with no gas
A well with no water
A show with no cast
A court with no jury
A church with no pew
A boy with no sweetheart
That's me without you

Cabin On The Hill
Cabin On The Hill
Composer(s): Bolivar Lee Shook
Performer(s): The Mullins Family
and multiple other artists
There's a happy childhood home in my mem'ry I can see
Standing out upon the hill neath the shadow of the tree
If I only had my way, it would give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
But the saddest of it all, I can never more return
To that happy childhood home, matters not how much I yearn
If I only had my way, it would give my heart a thrill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill
Oh, I want to wander back to the cabin on the hill
Neath the shadow of the tree I would like to linger still
Just to be with those I love, joy my heart would overfill
Just to simply wander back to the cabin on the hill

Facing The Wind
Facing The Wind
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico
It's holding me against my will
And doesn't leave me still
Amazons are riding out
To find a meaning for
The name, my name
In the rain
My spinning on my Name
In the rain, in the rain
When did it begin?
When did it begin?
Why am I not facing the wind?
My mother and my brother
Are facing the wind
Why are they facing the wind?
Why are they facing the wind?
There's nothing more to sing about
Not now or when they carry me away
In the rain
My spinning on my name in the rain
My spinning on my name in the rain
In the rain
When did it begin?
When did it begin?
Why are they facing the wind?

That's Love
That's Love
Composer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Performer(s): Gilbert O'Sullivan
Once in a while, out of the blue
I might appear somewhat rude
But don't be alarmed or get upset
Just say to yourself this I'll forget
And when I come home after being away
It might do me good just to hear you say
Darlin' don't move an inch, keep perfectly still
Now do with me what you will
Sometime ago before we met
I vowed to myself that I'd never let
No-one at all ever tie me down
Never dreaming that I'd see you around
Now isn't it strange wherever you go
It's always the same with whoever you know
Which just goes to prove what I've been trying to say
Looking at you the way I do (that's love)
Promising always to be true (that's love)
Giving each other a helping hand (that's love)
Sharing each other's every plan, that's love
And in love you do
And isn't it strange wherever you go
It's always the same with whoever you know
Which just goes to prove what I've been dying to say
Holding you now the way I do (that's love)
Knowing full well you want me to (that's love)
Telling each other how we feel (that's love)
Knowing inside it must be real, that's love
And in love it's true

Cabin In The Sky (Ethel Waters & Dooley Wilson)
Cabin In The Sky
Composer(s): Vernon Duke - John Latouche
First performance by: Ethel Waters & Dooley Wilson - 1940
Covered by multiple other artists
In this cloudy sky overhead now
There's no guiding star I can see
And I would be lost by each wild tempest tossed
Oh, if I didn't know of a place we two can go ...
There's a little cabin in the sky, Mister
For me and for you
I feel that it's true somehow
Can't you see that cabin in the sky, Mister
An acre or two of heavenly blue to plow
We will be oh so gay
Eat fried chicken every day
As the angels go sailing by
And that is why my heart is flyin' high, Mister
'Cause I know we'll have a cabin in the sky
We will be oh so gay
Eat fried chicken every day
As the angels go sailing by
That is why my heart is flying high, baby
'Cause I know we'll have a cabin in the sky

Face To Face (Siouxsie And The Banshees)
Face To Face
Composer(s): Danny Elfman - Siouxsie And The Banshees
Performer(s): Siouxsie And The Banshees
Face to face
my lovely foe
Mouth to mouth
raining heaven's blows
Hand on heart
tic tac toe
Under the stars
naked as we flow
Cheek to cheek
the bitter sweet
Commit your crime in your deadly time
Commit your crime in your deadly time
It's too divine
I want to bend
I want this bliss but something says I must resist
Another life
another time
We're Siamese twins writhing intertwined
Face to face
no telling lies
The masks they slide to reveal a new disguise
You never can win
it's the state I'm in
This danger thrills and my conflict kills
They say follow your heart
follow it through
But how can you
when you're split in two?
And you'll never know
You'll never know
One more kiss
before we die
Face to face
and dream of flying
Who are you?
who am I?
Wind in wings
two angels falling
To die like this
with a last kiss
It's falsehood's flame
it's a crying shame
Face to face
the passions breathe
I hate to stay but then I hate to leave
And you'll never know
You'll never know ...
