Cheek To Cheek
Cheek To Cheek
((Italian Version: Cheek To Cheek (Manlio Sgalambro) - 2001))
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance/First recording/First release by: Fred Astaire - 1935
Covered by multiple other artists
Heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing cheek to cheek
Heaven, I'm in heaven
And the cares that hung around me through the week
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak
When we're out together dancing (swinging) cheek to cheek
Oh I love to climb a mountain
And reach the highest peak
But it doesn't thrill (boot) me half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
Oh I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As dancing cheek to cheek
(Come on and) Dance with me
I want my arm(s) about you
That (Those) charm(s) about you
Will carry me through...
(Right up) To heaven, I'm in heaven
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak
And I seem to find the happiness I seek
When we're out together dancing, out together dancing (swinging)
Out together dancing cheek to cheek

Rainbow Stew
Rainbow Stew
Composer(s): Merle Haggard
Performer(s): Merle Haggard;
Johnny Paycheck; Jason Ringenberg
There's a big, brown cloud in the city
And the countryside's a sin
The price of life is too high to give up
Gotta come down again
When the world wide war is over and done
And the dream of peace comes true
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
Eatin' that rainbow stew
When they find out how to burn water
And the gasoline car is gone
When an airplane flies without any fuel
And the sunlight heats our home
One of these days when the air clears up
And the sun comes shinin' through
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
An' eatin' that rainbow stew
Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
An' eatin' that rainbow stew
You don't have to get high to get happy
Just think about what's in store
When people start doin' what they oughta be doin'
Then they won't be booin' no more
When a President goes through the White House door
An' does what he says he'll do
We'll all be drinkin' that free Bubble-Up
And eatin' that rainbow stew
Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' that free Bubble-Up
Eatin' that rainbow stew
Eatin' rainbow stew in a silver spoon
Underneath that sky of blue
We'll all be drinkin' free Bubble-Up
And eatin' that rainbow stew

Live It Up
Composer(s): Ergün Arsal - Kutlu özmakinaci
First performance by: Yüksek Sadakat - 2011
Here’s your favourite song on the radio
shake your head to the beat- it’s rock n roll
if you’re feeling the world has kicked you down
all you need is just to have a little fun
hey, it’s time to live it up
my friend, put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful
give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break
driving on with no map to lead me on
eyes on the horizon and there’s no turning round
sometimes I feel, I feel I’m not alone
so let your colors shine right next to mine
hey, it’s time to live it up
my friend, put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful
give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break
I say my friend life is beautiful
I say my friend life is beautiful
I say my friend… put the record on
sing it loud and let it out
life is beautiful
my friend let it out
life is beautiful
give yourself a break, come on and live it up
give yourself a break

Check-Out Time
Check-Out Time
Composer(s): Burt Bacharach - Hal David
Performer(s): Dionne Warwick
When I woke up this morning I was all alone
Stretched out in bed
Two hundred miles from home in some old motel
I don't know what's to become of me
I know that check-out time is three
I didn't mean to hurt him, he has so much pride
I never dreamed
I had to run and hide to this lonely room
I just hope he doesn't follow me
I know that check-out time is three
There's just no use
Why try to make an excuse
I've lost great news
Because to be his one
Well that would be just giving up on life
I've got to go on living, I just can't exist
I wanna taste all of the things I missed
For his tender love
Till the day love catches up with me
That's always check-out time at three

Rainbow People
Rainbow People
Composer(s): Andrew Gold
See all the rainbow people dance about
They're here to love you and to freak you out
Long tendril hair touching stars
Multicolored diamond shards will shower you with love
Hey Mr. plastic man all dressed in black
Incense and beads and flower power's back
The beautiful ones will turn you on
Gonna drop the flower bomb
Gonna drop the flower bomb
And blow your mind
I was thinkin' bout a groovy chick at Pandora's box
She was doing the pony eatin' magic paisley dots
Beautiful Capricorn said "man, this trip's so boss."
Just watch the rainbow people do their thing
Your soul can fly on lavender wings
You can be a butterfly
'Cause it's all inside your mind
It's all inside your mind
Whoa woah
And all the cosmic radiation
is blowing colors through the center of mind

Checking Out
Checking Out
Composer(s): Allan Holdsworth
Performer(s): Allan Holdsworth
You keep me hanging here
and you steal my time
while I wear my heart out on my sleeve
oh, on my sleeve
Me, I am falling down
come see me drown
Checking Out the bottles
at the bar...
Like to be away so far....
Me, wonder will the wind blow?
Am I chasing snow, though I'll never show
my sorrow's face, my sorrow's face?
Oh you, do you have to toy with
a bolted chest in my mind's chaotic
lumber room, rattling on fair fortune's loom?

There's a rainbow on the river
the skies are clearing . . .
You'll soon be hearing a heavenly song
all the day long . . .
When there's a rainbow on the river
the birds are mating . . .
They're busy dating each other above
happy in love . . .
Let's you and I go sailing
along the rippling stream . . .
Holding hands together
together we'll dream . . .
With a rainbow on the river
you get the feeling . . .
Romance is stealing right out of the blue
into your heart . . .

Feel The Passion
Composer(s): Shpëtim Saraçi - Sokol Marsi
First performance: Aurela Gaçe - 2011
Feel my heart, feel the words beat low
I sing my song and the echo flows
And wherever I go, I just want you to know
You're the blood in my veins and the love in my soul
You are my wave rippling over sea
You dry my tears and you make me grieve
But wherever I go, I just want you to know
My moment in time, oh sweet song of mine, eh...
I'm like an eagle in the open sky
I'll never land, I'm flying high
Let me share my song with you, just feel the passion
Love's the message shining through, a chain reaction
It brings my heaven down to earth and this is why
It drives me mad but it gives me life, I'm free to fly, eh...
And when I feel that I thirst for you
I dab my lips with your morning dew
But wherever I go, I just want you to know
Sweet song, live forever and I'll live with you, eh...
I'm like an eagle in the open sky
I'll never land, I'm flying high
Let me share my song with you, just feel the passion
Love's the message shining through, a chain reaction
It brings my heaven down to earth and this is why
It drives me mad but it gives me life, I'm free to fly, eh...
(Let me share my song with you, just feel the passion)
(Love's the message shining through, I'm free to fly)
Zot, qe këngën ma ke fal, më lerë të ndarë
Nuk ka ngjyrë e nuk ka fjalë, muret s'e mbajnë
It brings my heaven down to earth and this is why
It drives me mad but it gives me life, I'm free to fly, eh...
(Let me share my song with you, just feel the passion) Yeah...

Rainbow At Midnight
Composer(s): John Miller
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb;
and various other artists
After the war was over
I was coming home to you
I saw a rainbow at midnight
Out on the ocean blue
The stars in heaven were shining
The moon gave its light from above
I saw your face in this rainbow
And it made me think of our love
We’ll build a home in the country
And make all our dreams come true
There we’ll make a heaven
Sweetheart just for we two
Here we will live so happy
And have a baby or two
We’ll name them after the rainbow
Because it reminds me of you
After this life is over
And our journey here is trough
We’ll move to the land of the rainbow
And live in the starry blue

Checkers
Checkers
Composer(s): Edgar Allen - Leo. Edwards
Checkers was the nervy fellow's name
Who picked no winners in the racing game
Until his sweetheart picked the winning horse
And rode to fame and fortune on Remorse
He played the game and won out in the end
And here is what he told me like a friend
From the photo play you will observe
Fortune comes to those who most deserve
When Checkers' fate seemed but an idle guess
Love took the mount and rode it to success
Your horse may balk and leave you at the start
You're sure to win whenever you lead a heart
Life is like a game of checkers, just a game we play
Every move we make means loss or gain
Like a jockey in the racing game
some are driven to a corner throw their stakes away
Only love can lift their crosses
Make them all forget their losses
Life is like a game of checkers
Every one must play

Rainbow
Rainbow
Composer(s): Russ Hamilton
Performer(s): George Hamilton IV
Rainbow, rainbow, rainbow
I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow
A rainbow, to fit on your finger
And after I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
When we go walking side by side in the moonlight
We count the stars as we go strolling by
Maybe one day we'll own those beautiful diamonds
That glisten like the teardrops from your eyes
You know how I feel on a moment like this
When hand in hand, when we reminisce
Your eyes seem to glow when you whisper low
I really love you
I'm saving my money to buy you a rainbow
A rainbow, to fit on your finger
And after I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
And after I've gone and bought you the rainbow
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
I'll go out and I'll buy you the moon
Rainbow, rainbow, rainbow

The Magic Piper (Of Love)
The Magic Piper (Of Love)
Composer(s): Edwyn Collins
Performer(s): Edwyn Collins
I'm through with love hangovers
It's best that I stay sober
No rolling in the clover
No Gretna Green trip over
No honeymoon in Paris
I only feel embarrassed
For the cool cats
The charmed kittens
Both smitten by the love songs
That he's written
Caught in the sights
Of a deadly sniper
The magic piper of love
The magic piper of love
Of love, of love
My girlfriend, she go blotto
Of cunnings and his grotto
It turns out he's a dirty old man
The nice place that I want to be
Is sat up on this Christmas tree
While playing these games of
Catch as catch can
'Cause he's a sweet talker
A silent stalker
All the savvy of a street walker
More deadly than a horned viper
The magic piper of love
The magic piper of love
Of love, of love
He's a heart breaker
A mover and a shaker
The magic piper of love
It's kind of hard to swallow
You know you've gotta follow
The magic piper of love
'Cause he's a city slicker
An expert politic-er
The magic piper of love
Of love, of love
Of love, of love
Of love, of love

Check Yourself
Check Yourself
Composer(s): Al Bryant - David English - Berry Gordy Jr. - Otis Williams
Performer(s): The Temptations
and multiple other artists
Otis (& then Melvin):
By and by, you knew that you make me cry
(By and by, knew you'd make me cry)
And my love for you will never die
(My love will never, never die)
But I had to find out on my own
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Paul:
Aww, that's what they told me
(Check yourself, check yourself)
I paid no mind
(Check yourself, check yourself)
I kept on breaking hearts
(Check yourself, check yourself)
All down the line
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Sometimes you just got to lose
That's when you pay your dues
I guess I was a fool, I guess I was a fool
To think that... you'd stayed so true
Aww, I really played in the game
(Check yourself, check yourself)
I'd always win
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Now the tables turn
(Check yourself, check yourself)
And I'm on the losing end
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Oh don't, feel sorry
I had it coming, it's true
'Cause I'm losing, yes, I'm losing, I'm losing you
Before I go, I'd like for you to know
You've had my heart from the very start
But there's one more thing, before we part
And that's I'm sorry, sorry, sorry to my heart
Aww, I'm on my sad way
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Because I know I'd lost your love
(Check yourself, check yourself)
I'll kick it, like a pass
(Check yourself, check yourself)
But I'll be thinking of....
The good times
(The good times)
The bad times
(The bad times)
But good or bad, happy or sad
Of memories
(Memories)
Sweet, sweet memories
(Memories)
Aww, memories... are all I have
Aww, that's what they told me
(Check yourself, check yourself)
That's what they told me
(Check yourself, check yourself)
That's what they... what they told me
(Check yourself, check yourself)
Hmmm...

Rain, Rain, Rain
Rain, Rain, Rain
Composer(s): Bernard Toorish
Performer(s): Frankie Laine; The Four Lads
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
Well, didn't it rain children
God's gonna send new orders from Zion
He's good raise his heaven up higher
It's gonna rain
Well stop! Great God, stop still and listen
My God walked down by the briny sea
Beheld the evil of the sinful Man
Declared that he would destroy the land
He spoke to Noah, Noah stopped
He said, Noah I want you to build an ark
And I want you to build it big and strong
Build it three hundred cubits along
Thirty high and fifty wide
Cause it's got to stand that rain and tide
Well, rain children
God's gonna send new orders from Zion
He's good raise his heaven up higher
It's gonna rain
Well, after God told him what to do
Noah began to cut and hew
The ringing of the saw cried "Judgement"
The ringing of the hammer cried "Sinner repent"
A hundred years he hammered and sawed
Building the Ark by the Grace of God
After the foundation was laid
He hewed the timber and the Ark was made
Lord, let it rain
Behold the Ark is made
Well he called in the animals two by two
The ox, the camel, and the kangaroo
Well they called in Japeth, Ham and Shem
And God began to flood the land
He raised his hands to heaven on high
He knocked the sun, the moon from the sky
Shook the mountains around the sea
And he hitched his reins to the chariot wheel
Stepped on the land and stood on the shore
And declared that time would be no more
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Oh, Noah, Noah, didn't it rain
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain, rain
My Lord had to wait until the float and the Ark did rock
And Noah couldn't find nowhere to dock
My God spoke and he whispered low
Showed old Noah where he wanted him to go
He said, "Lookit here, Noah, the rain's done stopped
And I want you to land on the mountaintop"
He showed old Noah a rainbow sign
Said it won't be a rain but fire next time
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Oh, Noah, Noah, didn't it rain
Rain, rain, rain
Rain, rain, rain
Oh, Noah, Noah, didn't it rain
