They Can't Take That Away From Me
They Can't Take That Away From Me
((Dutch Version: Dat Nemen Ze Me Nooit Meer Af (Robert Long) - 1997))
Composer(s): George Gershwin - Ira Gershwin
First performance by: Fred Astaire - 1937
Covered by multiple other artists
Our romance won't end on a sorrowful note
Though by tomorrow you're gone
The song is ended, but as the songwriter wrote
The melody lingers on
They may take you from me, I'll miss your fond caress
But though they take you from me, I'll still possess
The way you wear your hat
The way your sip your tea
The memory of all that
No, no, they can't take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No, no, they can't take that away from me
We may never, never meet again
On the bumpy road to love
Still, I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, no, they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me
W e may never, never meet again
On the bumpy road to love
Still, I'll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you changed my life
No, no, they can't take that away from me
No, they can't take that away from me
Can't take that away
Can't take that away from me

Couleur Café
Couleur Café
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
First release by: Serge Gainsbourg - 1964
Covered by multiple other artists
J'aime ta couleur café
Tes cheveux café
Ta gorge café
J'aime quand pourmoi tu danses
Alors j'entends murmurer
Tous tes bracelets
Jolis bracelets
A tes pieds ils se balancent
Couleur café
Que j'aime ta couleur café
C'est quand même fou l'effet
L'effet que ça fait
De te voir rouler
Ainsi des yeux et des hanches
Si tu fais comme le café
Rien qu'à m'énerver
Rien qu'à m'exciter
Ce soir la nuit sera blanche
Couleur café
Que j'aime ta couleur café
L'amour sans philosopher
C'est comme le café
Très vite passé
Mais que veux-tu que j'y fasse
On en a marre de café
Et c'est terminé
Pour tout oublier
On attend que ça se tasse
Couleur café
Que j'aime ta couleur café

Jag Vill Vara Din Margareta
Jag Vill Vara Din Margareta
Composer(s): J.E. Karlzon
Performer(s): Sten & Stanley
Ingen vet, det jag vet, en hemlighet
Någon som jag tycker om har gjort mig het
Kan jag hjälpa att jag känner det så här?
Och den blick som jag fick, den sa mig allt
Det jag vill, kan jag nog få, tusenfalt
Å, nu börjar jag förstå att jag är kär
Ref.
Jag vill vara din, Margareta
Bara vara din, ska Du veta
Stå där vid din dörr, kär som aldrig förr
Men vågar inte ringa
Pulsarna dom bränner så heta
känner Du som jag, Margareta
Blickarna Du gav, gav Du dom som svar eller ej?
Och jag går hem igen med din bukett
Det jag vill säga dig är inte lätt
Kan inte hjälpa att jag känner det så här
Ref.
Jag vill vara din Margareta...

They Can’t Black Out The Moon
They Can’t Black Out The Moon
Performer(s): Harry Roy & Helen Clare
When we go strolling in the park at night
All the darkness is a boon
Who cares if we’re without a light
They can’t black out the moon
I see you smiling in the cigarette glow
Though the picture fades too soon
But I see all I want to know
They can’t black out the moon
We don’t grumble, we don’t worry about a lot
Oh, when will you stumble, you stumble into my arms
And when you kiss me, don’t you realise
That my heart’s like a big balloon
And like the lovelight in your eyes
They can’t black out the moon

Couldn't Stand The Weather
Couldn't Stand The Weather
Composer(s): Stevie Ray Vaughan
Performer(s): Stevie Ray Vaughan
Runnin' through this business of life
Rarely time if I'm needed to
Ain't so funny when things ain't feelin' right
Then daddy's hand helps to see me through
Sweet as sugar, love won't wash away
Rain or shine, it's always here to stay
All these years you and I've spent together
All this, we just couldn't stand the weather
Like a train that stops at every station
We all deal with trials and tribulations
Fear hangs the fellow that ties up his years
Entangled in yellow and cries all his tears
Changes come before we can grow
Learn to see them before we're too old
Don't just take me for tryin' to be heavy
Understand, it's time to get ready for the storm

Jag Vill Att Du Skall Bli Lycklig
English Title: I Want You To Be Happy
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Sommarkväll, junikväll
Himlens stjärnor lyser
Alla mänskor sover
Stan har gått till ro
Här står vi, du och jag
Men mitt hjärta fryser
Du har mött en annan
Du ska lämna mej
Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
Jag hoppas att hon älskar dej som jag gör
Vår tid tillsammans blev för kort
Men tiden står nu aldrig still
Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
Och hoppas hon kan ge dej det du saknat
Vårt liv blev inte som vi tänkt
Min kärlek räckte inte till
Jag står här nära dej
Förstår du hur jag känner?
Klockan är visst mycket
Stan är all för tyst
Sommarkväll, junikväll
Mina ögon bränner
Snart ska du försvinna
Bort ifrån mitt liv
Men tiden står nu aldrig still
Jag vill att du ska bli lycklig
Och hoppas hon kan ge dej det du saknat
Vårt liv blev inte som vi tänkt
Min kärlek räckte inte till
Jag står här nära dej
Förstår du hur jag känner?
Klockan är visst mycket
Stan är all för tyst
Sommarkväll, junikväll

They Called It The Dixie Blues
They Called It The Dixie Blues
Composer(s): Jack Strouse
Ragtime Joe with his old banjo
Wanted to compose
Sent for Sloan and his saxophone
Said "listen to me, Mose
We'll write a song about the South
And before we're through
We'll steal those Southern melodies like all the composers do"
And it wasn't very long before they had a Southern song
Ragtime Joe said now listen, Moe
Let's sail o'er the sea
We'll look 'round and we may jot down a foreign melody"
They went to Belgium, England, France, searched to beat the band
They couldn't find tunes that compared
With those down in Dixieland
Then they said "I guess we'll stop, there's nothing here for us to cop"
They took a little bit of Old Black Joe
to start off their refrain
kept strummin', kept strummin'
that old familiar strain
and they took a little bit of Swanee River
and looked around until they found Massa's in the cold, cold ground
and then they took four bars of My Old Kentucky Home
Those Southern tunes they tried hard to confuse
they couldn't lose
away down South in the land of cotton
there was nothing they'd forgotten
When it was done and rolled into
one they called it the Dixie Blues

Couldn't Get It Right
Couldn't Get It Right
Composer(s): Colin F.R. Cooper; John William Cuffley; Peter John Haycock; Derek John Holt; Frederick J. Jones
First release by: Climax Blues Band - 1976
Time was drifting, this rock had got to roll
So I hit the road and made my getaway
Restless feeling, really got a hold
I started searching for a better way
But I kept on looking for a sign
In the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light
No I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way
To take me through the night
I couldn't get it right
I couldn't get it right
L.A. fever made me feel alright
But I must admit it got the best of me
Getting down, so deep
I could have drowned
Now, I can't get back the way I used to be
But I kept on looking for a sign
In the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light
No I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way
To take me through the night
I couldn't get it right
I couldn't get it right
New York City took me with the tide
And I nearly died from hospitality
Left me stranded, took away my pride
Just another no account fatality
But I kept on looking for a sign
In the middle of the night
But I couldn't see the light
No I couldn't see the light
I kept on looking for a way
To take me through the night
I couldn't get it right
I couldn't get it right

Jag Var Sa Kär
Jag Var Sa Kär
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Säg, kan du förlåta
Mina hårda ord när jag gick?
Det jag sa kunde låta
Som om du aldrig tillbaka mig fick
Jag trodde jag var kär
I den vännen som jag svek dig för
Men nu först förstår jag
Att det var ett misstag av mig
För det är du, bara du
Som framför mig står
Vartän jag går
En gång, för länge sedan
Var jag din och allt var så bra
En gång, var jag lycklig
Det var då jag tillhörde dig
Men nu så går jag ensam
På de platser, de där vi var, vi två
Och nu först förstår jag
Att det var ett misstag av mig
För det är du, bara du
Som framför mig står
Vartän jag går
Ja, nu först förstår jag
Att det var ett misstag av mig
För det är du, bara du
Som framför mig står
Vartän jag går
Vartän jag går

They Call The Wind Maria
They Call The Wind Maria
Composer(s): Frederick Loewe - Alan Jay Lerner
First performance by: Rufus Smith - 1951
Covered by multiple other artists
Maria
Maria
They call the wind Maria
Away out here they gotta name
For rain and wind and fire
The rain is Tess, the fire's Joe
And they call the wind Maria
Maria blows the stars around
And sends the clouds a-flyin
Maria makes the mountains sound
Like folks were up there dyin'
Maria
Maria
They call the wind Maria
Before I knew Maria's name
I heard her wail and whining
I had a girl and she had me
And the sun was always shining
But then one day I left my girl
I left her far behind me
And now I'm lost, so gol-durned lost
Not even God can find me
Maria
Maria
They call the wind Maria
Out here they gotta name for rain
For wind and fire only
But when you're lost and all alone
There ain't no word but lonely
And I'm a lost and lonely man
Without a star to guide me
Maria, blow my love to me
I need my girl beside me
Maria
Maria
They call the wind Maria
Maria
Maria
Blow my love to me

Could You Please Oblige Us With A Bren Gun?
Could You Please Oblige Us With A Bren Gun?
Composer(s): Noel Coward
Performer(s): Noel Coward
Colonel Montmorency who was in Calcutta in ninety-two
Emerged from his retirement for the War
He wasn't very pleased with all he heard and all he saw
But whatever he felt, he tightened his belt and organised a Corps
Poor Colonel Montmorency thought considering all the wars he'd faught
The Home Guard was his job to do or die
But after days and weeks and years, bravely drying his many tears
He wrote the following letter to the Minister of Supply
Couls you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
Or failing that, a hand grenade will do
We've got some ammunition, in a rather damp condition
And Major Huss has a arquebus that was used at Waterloo
With the Vicar's stirrup pump, a pitchfork and a stave
It's rather hard to guard an aerodrome
So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
The Home Guard might as well go home
Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
We're getting awfully tired of drawing lots
Today we had a shipment of some curious equipment
And just for a prank, they sent us a tank that ties itself in knots
On Sunday's mock invasion, Captain Clark was heard to say
He hadn't even got a brush and comb
So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
The Home Guard might as well go home
Colonel Montmorency planned, in case the enemy tried to land
To drive them back with skill and armoured force
He realised his army should be mechanised, of course
But somewhere inside, experience cried "My Kingdom for a horse"
Poor Colonel Montmorency tried, at infinite cost to time and pride
To tackle his superiors again
Having just one motorbike, fourteen swords and a marlin spike
He wrote the following letter in the following urgent strain
Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
We need it very badly, I'm afraid
Our local crossword solver has an excellent revolver
But during a short attack on a fort, the trigger got mislaid
In course of operations planned for Friday afternoon
Our orders are to storm the Hippodrome
So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
The Home Guard might as well go home
Could you please oblige us with a Bren gun?
The lack of one is wounding to our pride
Last night we found the cutest, little German parachutist
He looked at our kit and giggled a bit, and laughed until he cried
We'll have to hide that armoured car when marching through Berlin
We'd almost be ashamed of it in Rome
So if you can't oblige us with a Bren gun
The Home Guard might as well go home

Jag Skall Inte Fälla Nagra Tarar
Jag Skall Inte Fälla Nagra Tarar
English Title: I Won't Shed Any Tears
Composer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
Jag ska nog bli kär igen
Det finns så många andra män
Tack ändå för allt som var
Du behöver inte alls bekymra dej för mej
Ensamheten känner jag så väl
Sluta att förklara dej, ja
Snälla du bespara mej
Alla dina dumma skäl
Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
Sånt du glömde kvar
Saker som man spar
Dom minner om allt det som var
Kanske gör jag fel som inte visar hur det känns
Jag är säkert stoltare än du
Vill så gärna krama dej
Men det är nåt som hindrar mej
Varför ska jag tveka nu.
Säkert blir det tomt efter dej
Får nog ganska svårt att vänja mej
Sånt du glömde kvar
Saker som man spar
Dom minner om allt det som var
Jag skall inte fälla några tårar när du går
Inte heller be dig stanna kvar
Jag ska nog bli kär igen
Det finns så många andra män
Tack ändå för allt som var

They Asked About You
They Asked About You
Composer(s): Freddy Weller - Kim Nash - Bill Nash
Performer(s): Reba McEntire
Saturday night
Out on the town
Feeling so sure of myself
Meeting some friends
Sharing some laughs
Not thinking of anything else
Then one of them leaned over my shoulder
And all at once the party was over
They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you
How could they know
What it would do
All they did was mention your name
And just like that
The hurting was back
That's when I knew nothing had changed
What a time for old memories to find me
Just when I thought I'd put 'em behind me
They asked about you
And suddenly it all came back to me
Then all the walls around my heart
Came crashing at my feet
When they asked about you
(Oh) They asked about you
I was doing OK
Until they asked about you

Could You Be Loved
Composer(s): Bob Marley
First release by: Bob Marley - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved
Don't let them fool you
Or even try to school you, oh! no
We've got a mind of our own
So go to hell if what you're thinking
Is not right
Love would never leave us alone
In the darkness there must come out to light
Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved
The road of life is rocky
And you may stumble too
So while you point your fingers
Someone else is judging you
Love you brotherman
Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
Could you be, could you be loved
Don't let them change you
Or even rearrange you, oh! no
We've got a life to live
They say only, only
Only the fittest of the fittest shall survive
Stay alive
Could you be loved and be loved
Could you be loved and be loved
You ain't gonna miss your water
Until your well runs dry
No matter how you treat him
The man will never be satisfied
Could you be, could you be, could you be loved
Could you be, could you be loved
Say something, say something
Say something
Reggae, reggae
Say something
Rockers, rockers
Say something could you be loved

((German Version: Tausend Wunder (Agnetha Fältskog))
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Tack min vän att du gjorde mig till kvinna
Tack för att ha fått just dig till man
Det är underbart att få krama om varann
Och vår kärlek växer mer för varje dag
Den får aldrig någonsin ta slut
Jag vill aldrig mer blir så ensam som förut
Jag ska göra allt som du ber mig om
Jag ska dela allting för två
Jag ska alltid står vid din sida
Och var en god mor åt våra små
Ingen skall förstöra det trygga hem vi byggde
Om du går, då vill jag inte leva
Om du går, blir inget som det var
Barnen skulle alltid frågar efter far
Låt oss klara alla svåra stunder
Säga tyst ``Förlåt'' när något går fel
Låt oss hjälpas åt att bevara lyckan hel
Jag ska göra allt som du ber mig om
Jag ska dela allting för två
Jag ska alltid står vid din sida
Och var en god mor åt våra små
Ingen skall förstöra det trygga hem vi byggde
Jag ska göra allt som du ber mig om
Jag ska dela allting för två
Jag ska alltid står vid din sida
Och var en god mor åt våra små
Ingen skall förstöra det trygga hem vi byggde

Could this be magic
My dear
My heart's all aglow
Could this be magic
Loving you so
Could this be magic
My dear
Having your love
My prayers were answered
So far from above.
I thought it would be
Just a memory
To linger my heart in pain
But too much pride
I opened up my eyes
And I'm with you dear once again
Could this be magic
My dear
Having your love
If this is magic
Then magic is mine
Could this be magic
Then magic is mine

Jag Skall Fånga en Ängel
Composer(s): Ted Gärdestad; Kenneth Gärdestad
Performer(s): Ted Gärdestad
Om jag går ut och dansar på ett diskotek
vet jag att jag bara chansar men jag tar det på lek
om jag bara försöker att se manlig ut
kan jag hitta det jag söker innan kvällen tar slut
Jag ska fånga en ängel, fånga en ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen
vill du vara min ängel vara min ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen...
Om du ger mig ditt nummer ska jag ringa dig
kanske missar du din slummer om du sover hos mig
Refr. Jag ska fånga en....
Ställer du upp om du blir bjuden
även om ditt samvete kommer i kläm
men du är väl inte förbjuden
att följa med hem - när ska vi gå hem?
Tycker du det är viktigt att du känner mig
kan vi börja det försiktigt, du kan lita på mig
Jag ska vara en ängel, vara en ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen
vill du vara min ängel, vara min ängel
ängel från sjunde himlen....
