Too Much Love Will Kill You
Too Much Love Will Kill You
Performer(s): Queen
I'm just the pieces of the man I used to be
Too many bitter tears are raining down on me
I'm far away from home
And I've been facing this alone
For much too long
I feel like no-one ever told the truth to me
About growing up and what a struggle it would be
In me tangled state of mind
I've been looking back to find
Where I went wrong
Too much love will kill you
If you can't make up your mind
Torn between the lover
And the love you leave behind
You're headed for disaster
'cos you never read the signs
Too much love will kill you
Every time
I'm just the shadow of the man I used to be
And it seems like there's no way out of this for me
I used to bring you sunshine
Now all I ever do is bring you down
How would it be if you were standing in my shoes
Can't you see that it's impossible to choose
No there's no making sense of it
Every way I go I'm bound to lose
Too much love will kill you
Just as sure as none at all
It'll drain the power that's in you
Make you plead and scream and crawl
And the pain will make you crazy
You're the victim of your crime
Too much love will kill you
Every time
Too much love will kill you
It'll make your life a lie
Yes, too much love will kill you
And you won't understand why
You'd give your life, you'd sell your soul
But here it comes again
Too much love will kill you
In the end...
In the end

Juke Box Hero
Juke Box Hero
Composer(s): Lou Gramm; Mick Jones
Performer(s): Foreigner;
Binge; Me First; Soul Asylum
Standing in the rain, with his head hung low
Couldnt get a ticket, it was a sold out show
Heard the roar of the crowd, he could picture the scene
Put his ear to the wall, then like a distant scream
He heard one guitar, just blew him away
He saw stars in his eyes, and the very next day
Bought a beat up six string in a secondhand store
Didn't know how to play it, but he knew for sure
That one guitar felt good in his hands
Didn't take long to understand
Just one guitar, slung way down low
Was a one way ticket, only one way to go
So he started rockin'
Ain't never gonna stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
Someday he's gonna make it to the top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Hes a juke box hero
He took one guitar, juke box hero, stars in his eyes
Juke box hero, he'll come alive tonight
In a town without a name, in a heavy downpour
Thought he passed his own shadow by the backstage door
Like a trip through the past, to that day in the rain
And that one guitar made his whole life change
Now he needs to keep rockin'
He just can't stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Yeah, juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
With that one guitar he'll come alive
Come alive tonight
Yeah, he's gotta keep rockin'
He just cant stop
Gotta keep on rockin'
That boy has got to stay on top
And be a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
He's a juke box hero, got stars in his eyes
Just one guitar, put stars in his eyes
He's just a juke box hero, aah aah aah
Juke box hero, juke box hero, he's got stars in his eyes
Stars in his eyes

Too Much Junkie Business
Composer(s): Johnny Thunders - Walter Lure
Performer(s): Johnny Thunders
and multiple other artists
Well you run down to the corner baby, see what you can cop
You buy some for your sister and you take yours off the top
Run into the bathroom, fixing up a shot
Tie it up, shoot it up, bang your head and throw it up
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
I don't wanna fuck around with you
Your life becomes as sickening as that mess you call your face
The pig you call your girlfriend is dead from shooting mace
Climbing up the walls, you're shooting all my balls (/old moth balls?)
Wrap it up, call it art, now your record makes the chart
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
I don't wanna fuck around with you
Too much junk, too much junk
Too much junk, too much junk
Too much junk, too much junk
I don't wanna see her hanging out with you
Well you're the coolest thing in town, with your face right on the ground
Friends went through your pockets as the coffin went down
You overdosed at last, spike stuck in your head
Now you're dead… dead! dead! dead!
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
Too much junkie business
I don't wanna fuck around with you
Too much junk, too much junk
Too much junk, in your head

I Just Want To Be The One In Your Life
Composer(s): Michael Price; Dan Walsh
Performer(s): Barry Manilow
Some people shoot for the stars
Dream up on dreams, they long to go far
Chasing their rainbows so high
Wish up on wish, they reach for the sky
But I've got one little dream
And baby that's all I want
Girl it's up to you
You can make my dreams come true
I just wanna be the one in your life
Forever, for always
I just wanna be the one in your life
Forever, for always
I don't need cheers from the crowd
To make me feel big, to make me feel proud
Darling just a little touch of your hair
Is all that I need to feel like a man
But I keep hoping each day
I won't dream my life away
Girl you are the key
To make my dream a reality
I just wanna be the one in your life
Forever, for always
I just wanna be the one in your life
Forever, for always

When my juke box baby takes the floor
'round the old juke box in the candy store
The joint starts jumpin' till the roof comes tumblin' down

Too Much Imagination
Too Much Imagination
Composer(s): Johnny Burke - Harold Spina
Performer(s): Guy Lombardo & His Royal Canadians
Why did I catch your eye
Hoping you understood
I've too much imagination
For my own good
Why do I even try
Haunting your neighbourhood
I've too much imagination
For my own good
I tried to face you, I constantly chase you
I run to each place you might go
I've made it an issue
I honestly wish you could know
Would you believe that
I can see you with me playing what lovers would
I've too much imagination
For my own good

c'est l'obscurité sur nous
c'est noir partout

Too Much Heaven
Composer(s): Robin Gibb - Barry Gibb - Maurice Gibb
First release: Bee Gees - 1978
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Oh you and me girl
Got a lot of love in store
And it flows through you
And it flows through me
And I love you so much more
Then my life... I can see beyond forever
Ev'rything we are will never die
Loving's such a beautiful thing
Oh you make my world... a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
You and me girl got a highway to the sky
We can turn away from the night and day
And the tears you had to cry
You're my life...
I can see a new tomorrow
Ev'rything we are will never die
Loving's such a beautiful thing
When you are to me, the light above
Made for all to see our presious love
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Love is such a beautiful thing
You make my world a summer day
Are you just a dream to fade away
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as wide as a river and harder to cross
Nobody gets too much heaven no more
It's much harder to come by
I'm waiting in line
Nobody gets too much love anymore
It's as high as a mountain
And harder to climb

Juke-Box (Bernard Lavilliers)
Juke-Box
Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers
J'écrivais des chansons sur le coin d'un juke-box
Tirant sur un gazon qu'avait rien d'orthodoxe
Je balançais mes mots de cuir et de charbon
Vivant à fleur de peau dans mes contradictions
Tous les bourgeois frileux ont transformé nos mots
En ont fait des jingles rétros pour les radios
Ont rachetés nos cuirs, nos motos, nos surins
Et nos copeaux bleutés vont finir chez Cardin
J'aurais voulu t'écrire une chanson d'amour
Pleine de bons sentiments, de départs, de retours
Enrobée de violons et de chœurs et d'échos
'Fin bref une chanson qui passe à la radio
Quand ton meilleur copain finit par te braquer
Tout ce que t'avais gardé pour le froid et l'angoisse
S'en va sur le chemin du brown et du sucré
Et tu restes tout seul les deux pieds dans la crasse
Moi je dis qu'y a qu'les putes qui peuvent savoir aimer
Les yeux de l'intérieur sont faits d'eau et de foudre
Tu sais vraiment quelque chose quand t'as tout déréglé
Les discours, les dollars, la musique et la poudre
J'aurais voulu t'écrire une chanson d'amour
Pleine de bons sentiments, de départs, de retours
Enrobée de violons et d'échos et de chœurs
'Fin bref une chanson branchée sur le secteur
Je ne suis pas un chef, je n'sais pas marcher droit
C'est pourquoi camarade tu peux tirer ta ligne
Je chanterai toujours pour mes copains d'en bas
Ceux que je reconnais sans un mot, sans un signe
C'est sûr on m'descendra un beau jour pour la frime
Pour une façon de voir, pour une question bénigne
Je s'rais rééduqué par des curés new-look
Armés de pataugas, de parkas et de boucs
J'aurais voulu t'écrire une chanson d'amour
Pleine de bons sentiments, de départs, de retours
Enrobée de violons et de chœurs et d'échos
'Fin bref une chanson qui passe à la radio
Si j'ai fait le tour de la Terre
Tu peux pas dire que j'en suis fier
Je suis pourri jusqu'à la moelle
Qui veut me vendre un idéal
Et je zone dans les bars de nuit
Tu te retournes dans ton lit
Bien au chaud dans ton alvéole
Tu branches ma cire et tu décolles
Tu sais le soleil est moins chaud
Y a du grisou dans le tempo
Tu m'aimes vraiment mais tu as peur
Tu tires toujours en amateur

Performer(s): Nicolette Larson
and multiple other artists
You want me to leave
Well maybe your right
You had what it was that you wanted tonight
Now you like the party
But after the ball
You wanna be free
To feel nothing at all
And I just keep falling in love
I should know better
And I don't know better
How could one night be enough
I just keep falling in love
Wanna tell me I'm crazy
Now maybe that's true
I can't hide the way
That I feel about you
So why should I wonder
Why nobody cares
Here in the sad state
A casual affair
I just keep falling in love
I should know better
And I don't know better
How could one night be enough
I just keep falling
Just keep falling
I just keep falling in love
I should know better
And I dont know better
How could one night be enough
I just keep falling
Just keep falling
How could one night be enough
I just keep falling in love
