1 Of The 2

1 Of The 2
Composer(s): Brian James
Performer(s): The Damned

Oh yeah you're all cracked up fury
All get no jury to defend you
You tried but you couldn't try
When they see you
You want me to hang around
With you always
But you lie and die
When all you ever give me is disgrace
That's the way down
That's the way down
That's sedation
That's sedation
Or one of the two
Or one of the two
With our saturation eyes
You think you can disguise all those meat things
But can you grovel in the dust
With masochistic lust and make the song sing
Oh yeah you're all cracked up fury
All get no jury to defend you
You tried but you couldn't cry
When they see you
That's the way down
That's the way down
That's sedation
That's sedation
Or one of the two
Or one of the two
Oh yeah you're all cracked up fury
All get no jury to defend you
You tried but you couldn't cry
When they see you
You want me to hang around
With you always
But you lie and die
When all you ever give me is disgrace
That's the way down
That's the way down
That's sedation
That's sedation
Or one of the two
Or one of the two
One of the two
Or one of the two
Or one of the two

Melancholy Man

Melancholy Man
Composer(s): Mike Pinder
Performer(s): The Moody Blues

I´m a melancholy man
That´s what I am
All the world surrounds me
And my feet are on the ground
I´m a very lonely man
Doing what I can
All the world astounds me
And I think I understand
That we´re going
To keep growing
Wait and see

When all the stars are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground
And angry voices carry on the wind
A beam of light will fill your head
And you´ll remember what´s been said
By all the good men this world´s ever known
Another man is what you´ll see
Who looks like you and looks like me
And yet somehow he will not feel the same
His life caught up in misery
He doesn´t think like you and me
´Coz he can´t see what you and I can see

When all the stars are falling down
Into the sea and on the ground
And angry voices carry on the wind
A beam of light will fill your head
And you´ll remember what´s been said
By all the good men this world´s ever known
Another man is what you´ll see
Who looks like you and looks like me
And yet somehow he will not feel the same
His life caught up in misery
He doesn´t think like you and me (A melancholy man)
´Coz he can´t see what you and I can see (A very lonely man)
(Repeat both verses together)

Once Upon A Summer Afternoon

Once Upon A Summer Afternoon
Composer(s): Levitt; Snyder
Performer(s): John Gary

There were blue butterflies golden daffodils
And a pale August sky filled with whippoorwills
When we fell in love once upon a summer afternoon
I remember a kiss and an apple tree
And the sound of her laughter still follows me
We were so in love once upon a summer afternoon
But the end of the dream always makes me cry
I can still hear the word goodbye
Only blue butterflies, golden daffodils, apple trees
And my heart knows I love her still
Once her love was mine once upon a summer afternoon
Once her love was mine once upon a summer afternoon

Composer(s): Terry Britten
Performer(s): Rick Springfield

One time two times three times four
Hey hey hey hey hey
Twelve angry husbands knocking on my door
Hey hey hey hey hey

Accusing me of having done
Something that would make me run run run run run
Why won't they sit and listen
All that they want to do is christen me

One time two times three times four
Hey hey hey hey hey
Gotta go gotta play around no more
Hey hey hey hey hey

Can't you see I've had the gun
Now their gonna make me run run run run run
Why won't they sit and listen
All that they want to do is christen me

I didn't mean to play around with fire
But nevertheless I got burned
I won't do it again

One time two times three times four
Hey hey hey hey hey
Gotta go gotta play around no more
Hey hey hey,hey hey
One time two times three times four
Hey hey hey hey hey

Melancholy Country Blues

Melancholy Country Blues
Performer(s): Carol Douglas

Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Let’s diffuse all the bad times
I’m melancholy too
Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Put yourself in my shoes
I’m melancholy too

Let’s be sad, it’s so bad
Let’s just sit and cry
Let it go, let it out
It’s what this melancholy evenin’s all about!

Let’s sit by the fire and turn the hi-fi higher
With the saddest songs we’ve found
Let’s sit by the fire and turn the hi-fi higher
So the sad stories go round and round
Round and round and round!

Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Let’s diffuse all the bad times
I’m melancholy too
Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Put yourself in my shoes
I’m melancholy too

I can see you’re down like me
Let’s have a bottle of wine
I can see you’re down like me
But our troubles will go in time

Let’s raid the fridge, grab the jambalaya dish
And stuff ourselves with food
Deep in talk, deep in thought
The jambalaya will help to melt away
To melt away… this melancholy mood

Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Let’s diffuse all the bad times
I’m melancholy too
Melancholy baby ... let’s sing the melancholy country blues
Put yourself in my shoes
I’m melancholy too

Belinda (Gianni Morandi)

Belinda Composer(s): Francesci Migliacci - J. Ray Performer(s): Gianni Morandi

Bella belinda e' innamorata
parla da sola con l'insalata
non guarda il piatto ma la finestra
scende una lacrima nella minestra
gioca col pane bella belinda
fa le palline con la mollica
nel uo bicchiere bella belinda
vede i suoi occhi pieni d'amore
mille pensieri son come farfalle
mille carezze sui suoi capelli
brividi dolci lungo le spalle
piu' e' innamorata e piu' si fa bella
e' unica al mondo bella belinda
scende le scale come volando
e' da romanzo bella belinda
vive l'amore e salta il pranzo
quando fa notte bella belinda
si copre tutta sino ai capelli
no, non e' il vento bella belinda
sono i sospiri di chi ti pensa
mille pensieri son come farfalle
mille carezze sui suoi capelli
brividi dolci lungo le spalle
piu' e' innamorata e piu' si fa bella
bella belinda e' innamorata
parla da sola con l'insalata
non guarda il piatto ma la finestra

Mel Da Ilha

Mel Da Ilha
Composer(s): Ronaldo Bastos
Performer(s): Cláudio Nucci & Renato Ze

Foi só morder a maçã para sonhar
Sonhar que ia também, meu bem quero ir
Quando for pra ilha
Irmão me leva, irmã me leva
Foi só pensar em você, já estava lá
Pra lá de um céu todo azul
Na beira do mar
Lá estava a ilha
A cor morena, o mel da ilha
Moendo a cana, movendo a ilha

Não esqueça de dizer adeus sorrindo
Recados vão na brisa do mar
Nobreza seja o mel da nossa lha
O sonho pode ser seu, qualquer lugar
(Bis)

Riqueza de viver e ter amigos
Não esqueça não esquecer de me levar
Foi só pensar em você para sonhar

Once Or Twice

Once Or Twice
Composer(s): Terry Kath
Performer(s): Chicago

Oh girl
I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me

Oh girl
I think you got a messed up mind
But if you will take the time
Baby I can set you free

Well I'm not trying to be
What I am not
But I think what you need
Is what I got

Girl I'm no philosopher
But I can offer you that cure
To mend your broken heart
I know that you are not blind
I know you see my messed up mind
I bet you see my broken heart too

So won't you
Bring your heart and your mind
That's out on the run
Fuse them with my broken heart
In my mind
We'll be one

Girl I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me

Girl I think you got a messed up mind
Now that you know yours is just like mine
Baby, won't you set me free

1,000,000 Years B.C.

1,000,000 Years B.C.
Performer(s): The Misfits

They're calling me, creatures of the night
Beautiful music
Animal instincts survived

The serpent's tongue
So ancient before the dawn of time
Fed throughout the ages
On the blood of mankind

I've seen it all
From grace men fall
Babylon
Curse of all creations
Winged serpent of the pit
Monstrosity

One million years BC

Ten thousand centuries ago
Cast down from Heaven
To pillage below

The serpent's eyes

Le Train

Le Train
Performer(s): Esther Ofarim

Le train, le train que j'attends
le train, le train que j'attends
un matin s'arrêtera
et mon amour en descendra
Oho oho ...

Cette gare , j'y viens chaque jour
d'un cœur léger ou d'un cœur lourd
et sur un banc de marronnier
je rêve de te retrouver
Oho oho ...

Le train, le train que j'attends
le train, le train que j'attends
je l'ai vu là devant moi
mais mon amour n'y était pas

Oho oho ...
Hou hou ...

Once On A Sunday Morning

Once On A Sunday Morning
Composer(s): Luis Aguile; Alan Blakley;
Len "Chip" Hawkes; Kusik; Snyder
Performer(s): The Tremeloes; James Last

She was just a dream
I can't explain just the way I feel
Strange as if they seemed
But in my mind she was very real

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Reaching for my hand
She smiled at me, we walked away
Tried to understand
But I could see through a sunny day

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Lalalalala..

Saturday was done
I went to bed, but I couldn't sleep
Sunday came along
The memory I will always keep

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Lalalalala..

Dididididi..

On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning

10 Degrees And Getting Colder

10 Degrees And Getting Colder Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot First release by: Gordon Lightfoot - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists

He was standin' by the highway
with a sign that just said Mother
When he heard a driver comin'
'Bout a half a mile away
Then he held the sign up higher
Where no decent soul could miss it
It was ten degrees or colder
Down by bolder dam that day

He was raised up in Milwaukee
Though he never was that famous
He was just a road musician
To the taverns he would go
Singin' songs about the ramblin'
The lovin' girls and gamblin'
How the world fell on his shoulders
Back in Boulder I don't know

It was out in Arizona
That he heard the lady listenin'
To each word that he was sayin'
To each line that he would write
So he sat down by her table and
They talked about the weather
Ninety-eight point six and risin'
Down by Boulder dam that day

And she told him she would take him
For a ride in the mornin' sun
Back in Boulder he had told her
I don't know when I had a better friend

Now he's traded off his Martin
But his troubles are not over
For his feet are almost frozen
And the sun is sinkin' low
Won't you listen to me brother
If you ever loved your mother
Please pull off on the shoulder
If you're goin' Milwaukee way
It's ten degrees and getting colder
Down by Boulder dam today

Le Venin

Le Venin Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers

Une mélodie mélancolique viendeto du ghetto L'après-midi plombé à mort lui donne ce tempo Sous un ciel d'encre, des enfants jouent à lancer leurs couteaux Au-dessus des caisses où des vieux sages planquent leurs dominos Cette mélodie mélancolique qui vient de la Havane Contient des ondes maléfiques aux allures de Gitane M'a dit un vieux conteur d'histoires, buveur de rhum hors-pair Connu à Kingston un beau soir, en lui payant des verres Il y a longtemps, un marin fou, amant d'une Gipsy Elle voulait tout lui donner, tout, mais lui n'a rien compris J'ai un peu oublié la suite, qui parle de vengeance Du danger des vraies amoureuses, de poison et de rance Cette mélodie mélancolique qui vient de la Havane Contient des ondes maléfiques aux allures de Gitane Amour couvert ou très obscur, provoquant le destin Cette mélodie porte-malheur, et s'appelle le venin viendeto viendeto viendeto du ghetto Une mélodie mélancolique viendeto du ghetto La pluie qui envahit la rue lui donne ce tempo Une chanson bizarre et maléfique qui fait fuir les marins Moi je la chante pour le risque, on verra bien demain... viendeto viendeto viendeto du ghetto

Meisjes Van 13

Meisjes Van 13
Performer(s): Paul van Vliet

Hebben van die wapperende voeten
Lopen altijd overal tegenop
Weten helemaal niet wat ze moeten
Kauwen dus de hele dag maar drop
Moeten oude jurken van hun grote zusjes aan
Die hun moeders hen nu juist zo enig vinden staan
Houden niet van zomerkampen moeten daar toch heen
En zijn daar met z'n honderden verschrikkelijk alleen

Meisjes van dertien, niet zo gelukkig
Meisjes van dertien, en net tussenin
Te groot voor de poppen, te groot voor de merels
Te klein voor de liefde, te klein voor de kerels
Met een glimmende neus
En met knokige knietjes
En in hun dagboek
Staan de kleine verdrietjes
Meisjes van dertien, vlak voor 't begin
Meisjes van dertien, er net tussenin

Hebben van die dromerige koppies
Hebben van dat dunne steile haar
Willen niet meer samen met de jongens
Willen nou alleen nog met elkaar
Giechelen bij de naam van 't onbereikbare idool
Giechelen om hun vader en de leraren op school
Giechelen van ongemak en giechelen van spijt
Giechelen zich een weggetje naar een betere tijd

Meisjes van dertien, niet zo gelukkig
Meisjes van dertien, en net tussenin
Te groot voor de poppen, te groot voor de merels
Te klein voor de liefde, te klein voor de kerels
Nog nergens een vrouw, ja van boven voorzichtig
Maar verder nog nergens, nog te dun en te spichtig
Meisjes van derien, droom er maar van
Meisjes van dertien, giechel maar an

Composer(s): Dusty Owens

and various other artists

Once more to be with you dear
Just for tonight to hold you tight
Once more I'd give up a fortune
If I could see you once more

Forget the past, this hurt can't last
Oh I don't want it to keep us apart
Your love I'll crave, I'll be your slave
If you'll just give me all of your heart

Once more to be with you dear
Just for tonight to hold you tight
Once more I'd give a fortune
If I could see you once more
Once more

10 Light Years Away

10 Light Years Away Composer(s): M. Frederiksen; M. Jones; Klaus Meine; Rudolph Schenker Performer(s): Scorpions

In a run down bed and breakfast
A room with a view, across the river
I tried to loos the claustrophobia
Opened up and find Utopia
There's no more denying
As my mind go flying
10 light years away to save my soul
10 light years away to change it all
Whatever it may take I gotta try again
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away
I'd been watching the reflection
Of a bamboo in the shade, when I saw her
A very hot day in Havana
In a midnight blue lagoon
I knew she was hiding
10 light years away so take me home
10 light years away to change it all
Help me find today It's been way too long
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away
There's no more denying
As my mind go flying
10 light years away to save my soul
10 light years away to change it all
Whatever it may take I gotta try again
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away so take me home
10 light years away to change it all
Help me find today It's been way too long
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away

A Baby Just Like You

A Baby Just Like You Composer(s): John Denver - Joe Henry Performer(s): John Denver and multiple other artists

The season is upon us now
A time for gifts and giving
And as the year draws to its close
I think about my living
Christmas time when I was young
The magic and the wonder
But colors dull and candles dim
And dark my standing under

Oh, little angel, shining light
You've set my soul to dreaming
You've given back my joy in life
You filled me with new meaning

A savior King was born that day
A baby just like you
And as the Magi came with gifts
I come with my gift too
That peace on earth fills up your time
And brotherhood surrounds you
That you may know the warmth of love
And wrap it all around you

It's just a wish, a dream I'm told
From days when I was young
Merry Christmas little Zachary
Merry Christmas everyone
Merry Christmas little Zachary
Merry Christmas everyone

Meisjes Van 30

Meisjes Van 30
Performer(s): Paul van Vliet

Hebben van die rusteloze voeten
Lopen daardoor overal tegenop
En 't is ook wel verwarrend wat ze moeten
Een baan, een man, een kind en hogerop
Rennen van hun werk, via de creche naar 't cafe
En moet 't kind dan eerst naar bed, of nemen we 't mee
En als je nog geen kind hebt: kan dat wachten of moet dat nu
En eten we weer sousjies, of toch aardappels met jus

Meisjes van dertig, niet ongelukkig
Meisjes van dertig, er net tussenin
Te oud voor 't zomaar wat vlind'rende leven
Te jong om een toekomst uit handen te geven
Ze hebben succes en een heleboel plannen
Maar krijgen daardoor vaak problemen met mannen
Meisjes van dertig, vlak na 't begin
Meisjes van dertig, d'r weer tussenin

Hebben iets van heimwee in hun ogen
Hebben van dat doorgewaaide haar
Willen best wat delen met de jongens
Maar willen ook nog heel graag met elkaar
Giechelen, net als vroeger, bij een drankje en muziek
Giechelend langs de rekken van een lekkere boetiek
Giechelen om niet te huilen, om de wereld en de tijd
Maar een giechelende meid is niet op morgen voorbereid

Meisjes van dertig, niet ongelukkig
Meisjes van dertig, er net tussenin
Te oud voor: we zien wel, 't komt allemaal later
Te jong nog voor wijn die vermengd is met water
Voor altijd een vrouw; in gedachten soms even
Dat meisje van dertien, dat wacht op 't leven
Meisjes van dertig, maak d'r wat van
Want 't leuke van dertig, dat alles nog kan

Once Is Never Enough

Once Is Never Enough
Composer(s): Ian Crichton; Jim Crichton;
Jim Gilmour; Steve Negus; Michael Sadler
Performer(s): Saga

You say I can't then I have to
Have all the things I don't need
I guess it's human nature
The animal in me
You can call it my obsession
You've got me under your spell
If there's something I am wanting
I'll just help myself
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
I like to touch the fire
Maybe some day I'll get burned
After all this chasing
Don't think I'll ever learn
So when you see me coming
You can run but you can't hide
"Cause when I know just what I'm after
I won't stop until I die
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
I don't know what I want to
Have all the things that I don't need
It must be human nature
Or it's the animal in me
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
