Abschied
Abschied
Composer(s): Nico
Performer(s): Nico
Seinem Geiste bekenne Ich Mich
Ein Sehnen verzehret sein schönes Gesicht
Das ermattet von Güte beschattet allmächtig ist
Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht
Im Träume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergißt
Den heulenden Jubel erkenne Ich nicht
Der Mir den heiligen Frieden zerbricht
Sein schweigender Mund, seine schlafende Brust
Harren zärtlich der süßen Lust
Sein Körper bewegt sich nicht
Im Träume sich endlich sein Zwingen vergißt

Abre Tu Ventana
Abre Tu Ventana
Composer(s): Victor Jara
Performer(s): Victor Jara
Maria, abre la ventana
y deja que el sol alumbre
por todos los rincones
de tu casa
Maria, mira hacia afuera
nuestra vida no ha sido hecha
para rodearla de sombras
y tristezas
Maria ya ves
no basta nacer, crecer, amar
para encontrar la felicidad
Paso lo mas cruel
ahora tus ojos se llenan de luz
y tus manos de miel
tus manos de miel
tus manos de miel
Maria...
Tu risa brota como la mañana
brota en el jardin
Maria
Tu risa brota como la mañana
brota en el jardin
Maria

(We Must Have Been) Out Of Our Minds
(We Must Have Been) Out Of Our Minds
Composer(s): Melba Montgomery
Performer(s): Bobby Bare;
and various other artists
We said our goodbyes long ago
Never thinking we'd miss each other so
All the memories we can't leave behind
Oh, we must have been out of our minds
I thought I loved another, not you
How foolish I thought the same, too
They both turned out to be the wrong kind
Oh, we must have been out of our minds
Let's forgive and forget the past we've known
And reap together the wild seeds we've sown
Surely they can forgive us and find
That we must have been out of our minds
I thought I loved another, not you
How foolish I thought the same, too
They both turned out to be the wrong kind
Oh, we must have been out of our minds
Yes, we must have been out of our minds

Abre
Abre
Performer(s): Fito Páez
abre el mundo ante tus pies
abre todo sin querer
abre el zen, la vanidad
abre la profundidad
abren sexos en tu piel
abren cofres si querés
abre el fuego si cantás
abre el mundo una vez más
abre el roce y el amor
se abren paso entre tú y yo
abre el miedo y el dolor
abrís todo y entro yo
abre un cuerpo, se abre el sol
abre dar también perdón
abre verse en realidad
abre gritar de verdad
abre el rito de la fe
abre el riesgo de perder
se abre solo mi ataúd
abre el plexo en una cruz
abre drogas, abre amar
abre besos, abre andar
abre hablar, abre callar
abre el pulso del lugar
abre hacer e imaginar
abre nunca interpretar
abre toda sensación
abre música y color
abre el fin de la razón
abre el cielo y el terror
abre un poco de piedad
abre toda inmensidad
se abre el mundo ante tus pies
abre todo sin querer
abre al fin la vanidad
abre la profundidad
abren sexos en tu piel
abre un cofre si querés
abre el fuego si cantás
abre el mundo una vez más

We Must All Stick Together
We Must All Stick Together
Composer(s): Ralph Butler; R. Wallace
Performer(s): Billy Cotton;
Geraldo; Cyril Grantham
When Britain is in danger, when trouble's in the air
We all forget our squabbles it's trespassers beware
The nation is united when danger looms in sight
We march along together and sing with all our might
We must all stick together, all stick together
And the clouds will soon roll by
We must all stick together, all stick together
Never mind the old school tie
United we shall stand whatever may befall
The richest in the land, the poorest of us all
We must all stick together, birds of a feather
And the clouds will soon roll by
(We must all stick together, all stick together
And the clouds will soon roll by
We must all stick together, all stick together
Never mind your old school tie)
United we shall stand whatever may befall
The richest in the land, the poorest of us all
We must all stick together, birds of a feather
And the clouds will soon roll by

Performer(s): Juan Gabriel
and multiple other artists
Cuando tu estas conmigo es cuando yo digo
que valió la pena todo todo lo que yo he sufrido
no se si es un sueño aún o es una realidad
pero cuando estoy contigo es cuando digo
que este amor que siento es por que tu lo has merecido
con decirte amor que otra vez he amanecido llorando de felicidad
a tu lado yo siento que estoy viviendo
nada es como ayer
Abrázame que el tiempo pasa y el nunca perdona
ha hecho estragos en gente como en mi persona
abrázame que el tiempo es malo y muy cruel amigo
abrázame que el tiempo es oro si tu estas conmigo
abrázame fuerte muy fuerte y mas fuerte que nunca
siempre abrázame
hoy que tu estas conmigo
yo no se si esta pasando el tiempo o tu lo has detenido
asi quiero estar por siempre aprovecho que estás tu conmigo
te doy gracias por cada momento de mi vivir
tu cuando mires para el cielo
por cada estrella que aparezca amor es un te quiero
abrázame que el tiempo hiere y el cielo es testigo
que el tiempo es cruel y a nadie quiere
por eso te digo
abrázame muy fuerte amor mantenme asi a tu lado
yo quiero agradecerte amor todo lo que me has dado
quiero corresponderte de una forma u otra a diario
amor yo nunca del dolor he sido partidario
pero a mi me toco sufrir cuado con quien crei
en alguien que juro que daba su vida por mi
abrázame que el tiempo pasa y ese no se detiene
abrázame muy fuerte amor que el tiempo en contra viene
abrázame que Dios perdona pero el tiempo a ninguno
abrázame que a el no le importa saber quien es uno
abrázame que el tiempo pasa y ese nunca perdona
ha hecho estragos en mi gente como en mi persona
abrázame que el tiempo es malo y muy cruel amigo
abrázame muy fuerte amor

We Missed You
We Missed You
Composer(s): Bill Anderson
Performer(s): Kitty Wells; Doyle Lawson
We missed you and we're glad you've come home
The hours were never so lonely, my eyes were never so strained
From watching and waiting and crying for you
And hoping you'd come back again
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms
We missed you each day you were gone
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms
We missed you and we're glad you've come home
I hope against hope you still love me
There were so many mem'ries I carried
And though you had gone many miles from my side
My love followed you every step
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms
We missed you each day you were gone
Me and my heart and my lips and my arms
We missed you and we're glad you've come home

We May Never Pass This Way (Again)
We May Never Pass This Way (Again)
Composer(s): James Seals; Dash Crofts
Performer(s): Seals & Crofts;
Jeri Brown; George Porter Jr.
Life, so they say, is but a game and we let it slip away
Love, like the Autumn sun, should be dyin' but it's only just begun
Like the twilight in the road up ahead, they don't see just where we're goin'
And all the secrets in the Universe, whisper in our ears
And all the years will come and go, take us up, always up
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
Dreams, so they say, are for the fools and they let 'em drift away
Peace, like the silent dove, should be flyin' but it's only just begun
Like Columbus in the olden days, we must gather all our courage
Sail our ships out on the open sea
Cast away our fears
And all the years will come and go, and take us up, always up
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
So, I wanna laugh while the laughin' is easy
I wanna cry if it makes it worthwhile
We may never pass this way again, that's why I want it with you
'Cause, you make me feel like I'm more than a friend
Like I'm the journey and you're the journey's end
We may never pass this way again, that's why I want it with you, baby
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again
We may never pass this way again

Composer(s): Dick Holler
First release by: Dion - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
Has anybody here seen my old friend Abraham?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But it seems the good die young
But I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here seen my old friend John?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But it seems the good die young
But I just looked around and he's gone
Has anybody here seen my old friend Martin?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He freed a lot of people
But it seems the good die young
But I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some good for you and me?
And we'll be free
Someday soon, it's gonna be
One day
Has anybody here seen my old friend Bobby?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him walkin'
Up over the hill
With Abraham, Martin and John

We May Never Love Like This Again
We May Never Love Like This Again
Composer(s): Al Kasha; Joel Hirschhorn
Performer(s): Maureen McGovern;
and various other artists
We may never love like this again
Don't stop the flow
We can't let go
We may never love like this again
And touch the sky
Though we may try
So, while we're here
Let's give out all
Release the dreams inside us
And set them free
Oh, while we're here
Let's leave a mark
There's a candle in the dark
It's here to guide us
We may never love like this again
But through the days
Beyond the hills
I'll see you reaching out to hold me
I don't know just where or when
Still, I'm sure
We'll love again
We'll love again
We'll love again
(We may never love like this again)
We'll love again
(We may never love like this again)
We'll love......

Abracadabra 2000
Abracadabra 2000
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
Un pueblo suburbano
un hombre a contramano
tributo al desempleado
Julio y María, sus 2 hijos
y su esposa Analia
trabaja de día
y a la noche quiere estudiar
Abracadabra 2000
Él y algunos compañeros
fueron despedidos
en el mes de enero
el asunto es desregular
Después de 20 años
ensamblando autos
46 cumplidos, difícil volver a empezar
(no papi, no!, no mami, no!)
(solo propagandas)
Harto y frustrado (habrá que resistir)
se consiguió un aliado (el miedo)
botella en mano partió
(el vicio vence a la virtud)
leyó el grafitti
(en la pared del club y con actitud)
firmó su manifiesto
abandonando el lugar...
Abracadabra 2000
"Todo esta armado para domesticar
desde el trabajo hasta la puta moral,
comprando y vendiendo
hombres, mujeres e ideas
y lo que no pueden comprar
lo hacen desaparecer...
Un pueblo suburbano
un hombre a contramano
Hoy que encontramos asesinos
en las páginas amarillas
(habrá que competir)
hoy que cualquier imbécil
es profeta arriba de una silla
(habrá que tener fe)
Hoy que el Prozac nos divide
en Jekylls y Hydes
(habrá que simular)
hoy que el mundo esta quemando aceite
y la marcha atrás parece no entrar
*(habrá que andar a pie)
hoy que el ministro dio instrucciones
para que todo siga como antes
*(habrá que resistir)
Ah! Ah! Abracada...
Que se vayan, que se vayan
que se vayan todos
Ah! Ah! Abracada...
Abracadabra

We Made It
We Made It
Composer(s): David Paich; Jeff Porcaro
Performer(s): Toto
Bad time for love - you caught me on your birthday
I could feel your heart break into a hundred pieces
We were too torn apart, now it seems so senseless
And if we're clever, we'll put it together, it may be forever
Chorus:
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again
We made it, made it, made it before, I know that we can make it again
Down on my luck, you arrived just in time, my angel
Thought you'd given me up, like a rhyme that needs no reason
I want you enough to keep my life untangled
If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever
Chorus
I want you enough to keep my life untangled
If we're clever, we'll put it together, 'cos it may be forever
Chorus repeats 2x
If ever we'll make it, we're gonna make it girl
And I know we can take it, we got to take it, girl
If ever we can make it, we gotta make it
And I know we can take it…

I heat up, I can't cool down
You got me spinnin'
'Round and 'round

I feel the magic in your caress
I feel magic when I touch your dress
Silk and satin, leather and lace
Black panties with an angel's face
I see magic in your eyes
I hear the magic in your sighs
Just when I think I'm gonna get away
I hear those words that you always say
Abra-abra-cadabra
I want to reach out and grab ya

Every time you call my name
I heat up like a burnin' flame
Burnin' flame full of desire

I heat up, I can't cool down
My situation goes 'round and 'round

I love you
And I hope that you won't prove wrong too
We love you
We do
We love you
We do
Ah...

Abracadabra (Silvio Rodríguez)
Abracadabra
Composer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Performer(s): Silvio Rodríguez
Una mujer
por despecho -o por placer-
enterró en un jardín
un coco seco mojado en carmín
Luego un rival
narcotraficando el mal
escupía con ron
y alfilereaba un feliz corazón
Yo no se
cómo hay quien malversa la vida
cómo hay quien invoca una hérida
como pueden gastar el amor
Yo no se
(Como si no faltaran las penas
como si nos sobraran las cenas
como si diera dicha el dolor)
Yo no se
si el mal tiempo trae mala fe
si la desesperación hace blanco
y se cierran los laicos colegios
si se vuelve al sortilegio
y aprendices de delfín
creen llegar a Merlín
Yo no se
si el mal tiempo trae mala fe
pero a mí lo que me embruja es volar
y hechizarme con tus sortilegios
soy brillante en tu colegio
subo nota en el amor
vuelo allí
como al sol
un colibrí
Abracadabra
curandera mi palabra
todo mal pone bien
sana del odio y vacuna también
Abracadabra
siga la pata en su cabra
girasol, alhelí
la mariposa besó al colibrí

We Love Us
We Love Us
Composer(s): Ted Bluechel
Performer(s): The Association
I wake her, I hold her
I tell her I love her
And she smiles and says the same
She makes me feel like sunshine when she says my name
Her laughing, her crying
Her caring, her sharing
Of my life means more to me
Than all the wealth and fame that fortune brings to me
Turn your head around
Are you sure love's the feeling that surrounds you?
Does the question count when you feel good
As good inside as I do, do you?
The sun sets, the gulls fly
We love us, she and I

Bang, You're Dead
Bang, You're Dead
Composer(s): Nickolas Ashford - Valerie Simpson
Performer(s): Bette Midler
"Oh god, oh god
Dumping so early in the evening
I really didn't mean that
I really didn't mean that"
Above the ground, I'm lifted to the sky
And down like a tumbling weed I found myself stranded high and dry
A circus ride, oh, it only costs a dime
But if you wanna see the fireworks you might have to pay a lifetime
'Cause love is a carnival
With lots of laughs, wonderful rides and danger
But it feels so good
With rockets shootin' in your head
'round and 'round and 'round you go
Bang, you're dead, baby
Bang, you're dead, baby
Like a boomerang keeps twisting, twisting in your heart
You know the funny part of it is, you always end up where you start
You're headed for big clouds
Got the silver lining
But you're in for a big surprise
There's a river of tears behind it
'Cause love is a carnival
With lots of baubles, bangles and beads
Beware, beware, beware
It feels so good, feels so good
With rockets shootin' in your head
'round and 'round and 'round you go
Bang, you're dead, baby
Bang, you're dead, baby
Above the ground I'm lifted
Spinning, spinning, spinning out of control
Higher, higher, higher, higher, higher!
Above the ground I'm lifted, yeah, to the sky
And down like a tumbling weed I found myself stranded high and dry
A circus ride, you know it, it only costs a dime
but if you wanna see the fireworks you might have to pay
Hey, yeah, yeah, to the sky, high
And down like a tumbling weed
I found myself stranded, stranded
Bang, you're dead!
