Acuarela Del Río
Acuarela Del Río
Composer(s): Abel Montes)
Performer(s): Raphael; Vlamers
Un canilla poi
Una balsa una guaina
Una flor en el río
Un paisaje de cielo
Reflejan las aguas del gran Paraná
Mas allá, un camalote
Va flotando hacia la orilla
Que arbolada de sauces
Nos invita a soñar
Acuarela del río
Que pintas de luces
Mi dulce romance
En el mundo no hay marco
Más divino y bello
Para nuestro amor
Con su sol
Con sus cálidos matices
Con su brisa perfumada
En mágico arrebol
De un lento atardecer
A la deriva el bote va
Con mi amada por el río
Meciéndonos con su vaivén
Que acompasa nuestro amor
Y apoyada en mi hombro
Me murmura al oído
Mientras beso sus manos
Completan mi dicha
Aromas de azahar

We're Gonna Change The World
We’re Gonna Change The World
Composer(s): Ted Harris; Dave Matthews
Performer(s): Matt Monro
Shirley Wood gulped down her breakfast
Shut the fridge and joined the throng
Margaret Beatty snatched the milk in
Scanned the news and went along
Annie Harris drew the curtains
Screwed her eyes up, had a peek
Saw the marchers, heard their voices
Making early morning noises
Stumbled back to bed and tried to sleep
Come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change the world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world
We’re gonna change your world
Shuffling through the cold black morning
Went the marchers, spirits low
Grunting greetings, grimly pressing
Onto where they had to go
When the sun came up, they brightened
Stopped to have their Thermos brew
Annie Harris got up gladly
Pondered for a little, sadly
Then got on with what she had to do
So, come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change the world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world
We’re gonna change your world
At their target, numbers swollen
‘Up the marches’, banners go
Chanting, shouting out with leaflets
Protest for everyone to know
Sit in front of all the traffic
Harried, busy shopping wives
Try to stir their ostritch notions
Whip them up to wild emotions
Put some fire into their wretched lives
So, come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change your world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world
We’re gonna change your world
Shirley Wood was dragged still sitting
By a policeman from the road
Margaret Beatty had her face slapped
By a man she tried to goad
Annie Harris in the office
Paused in typing, thought of Don
Glanced again at his last letter
Died for others to live better
Brushed away a tear and carried on
Come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change the world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world
We’re gonna change..
Come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change your world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world
We’re gonna change..
So, come with us, run with us
We’re gonna change your world
You’ll be amazed, so full of praise
When we’ve rearranged your world

Actuar Para Vivir
Actuar Para Vivir
Composer(s): Fito Páez
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Y te aplaudirán, te aplastarán
aqui la frustración, la piel, las ganas
aqui seras payaso y domadór
aqui seras el juez y el perdedór
aqui se invertiran los roles
para usted
Usted que esta alli
nosotros arriba
la calle, el escenario
digamos mejor
que es necesario
actuar para vivir
Y en un fatal primer acto nacemos
cambiando siempre el vestuario y el juego
siempre tras la emoción
que es el sueldo esencial
siempre tras la noche
y las mesas de café
jaqueamos la inteligencia como peón al rey
jaqueamos la inteligencia. la hacemos canción
Toda esa magia escondida
la de los altos telones
no es nada mas que un anhelo de dos
la gente, el actor
las ganas de verse ahi
Se escuchó el ultimo aplauso
se fueron todas las luces
quedaron solo fantasmas de ayer
sin nombre, sin tez
mañana quizas este el mio

We're Going All The Way
We're Going All The Way
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
Performer(s): Jeffrey Osborne
We're just beginning
And I know we've each been down this road a time or two
And never could make it through
But I've got this feelin'
That we've stumbled in to what we've both been waiting for
And maybe even more
It doesn't matter where we've been `cause this time I know for sure
We're goin' all the way (All the way)
Headed far forever and that's where we're gonna stay
The more you're near me, the more I know it
We got it all here if we just don't blow it
We're goin' all the way (All the way)
If the two of us both want it I'd lay my money on it
Startin' today (Starting today)
We're goin' all the way
I know for certain
That there's more than magic in these feelings that we found
We're standin' on solid ground
But now we're both ready
Ready for the real thing `cause our dues have all been paid
We've finally got it made
Believe me when I tell you there's no need to be afraid
We're goin' all the way (All the way)
We're headed far forever and that's where we're gonna stay
The more you're near me, the more I know it
We got it all here if we just don't blow it
We're goin' all the way (All the way)
If the two of us both want it I'd lay my money on it
Startin' today (Starting today)
We're goin' all the way
We're gonna weather all the showers
And hold together through whatever comes
I know we got the staying power
We're gonna make tomorrow ours
If we just stick with it
And give it all we've got to give it
We're goin' all the way (All the way)
If the two of us both want it I'd lay my money on it
Startin' today (Starting today)
We're goin' all the way, mmm....hmm...
Oh...oh...baby, we're goin' all the way (All the way)
If the two of us both want it I'd lay my money on it
Startin' today (Starting today)
We're goin' all the way, mmm...mmm...hmm...hmm...ooh...hoo...

Le soleil luit
Sur les villes et sur les champs
Tout là-bas un paysan
Suit sa charrue en chantant
Deux messieurs bien
Parlant de chasse et de chiens
Dans un bar américain
Boiv'nt le whisky du matin
Un enfant bleu
Dans son berceau de bois blanc
Fermant ses yeux innocents
Meurt tout dou tout doucement
La Seine plie
Sous le ventre des chalands
Sur la berge deux enfants
S'enlacent en souriant
Cent mineurs crient
Sous le poids d'un continent
Là-haut pass' un régiment
Il y aura dix survivants
Le soleil luit
Sur les villes et sur les champs

Action Speaks Louder Than Words
Composer(s): Amadee Castenell Jr. - Ernest Dabon - Robert Dabon - Joseph Smith III
Performer(s): Chocolate Milk; Southside Johnny & The Asbury Jukes; Junior Reid
You exploded into my life
A shot heard around my world
You changed everything
It took some time to find the ground
I think my reason
Has caught up with me
Love is strong, but life is long
Decision is upon us
You can kick my tires girl
I'll deliver what I promise
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
It's sink or swim
We won't find out
Till we jump in
Will our love keep us afloat
Here come the rapids, girl, to test our will
And if the weather tips our boat
We might loose everything, can we pay that bill?
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
Can't wait, just do it
Let's get down to it
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
Action speaks louder than words
It's sink or swim
We won't find out
Till we jump in
You exploded into my life
A shot heard around my world
You changed everything
Action, action, action
It's sink or swim
We won't find out
Till we jump in
Action, action, action
Can't wait, just do it
Let's get down to it
Action, action, action
It's either sink or swim
We won't find out
Till we jump in
Action speaks louder than words
Let's get down to it
Can't wait to do it

Action Speaks Faster
Action Speaks Faster
Composer(s): Chris Difford - Glenn Tilbrook
Performer(s): Difford & Tilbrook
Action speaks faster
Faster than words
Pull her towards you
Let love be heard
And when we kissed there was a room that had been emptied
You said so much without a word I’d been tempted
Love’s not for sale there’s not a price
Who could have rented
Who lives here now come out and be found where I have nested
My eyelashes swam up through the tears
The moments that passed took two or three years
And when we talked there was rain and no attraction
Hand to my head, eyes to the ground, no reaction
Our love was home, now it’s a fort that’s held up to ransom
What of us now, now there’s no laughs, where is the action

We're An American Band
Composer(s): Don Brewer
Performer(s): Grand Funk Railroad
Out on the road for forty days
Last night in Little Rock, put me in a haze
Sweet, sweet Connie, doin' her act
She had the whole show and that's a natural fact
Up all night with Freddie King
I got to tell you, poker's his thing
Booze and ladies, keep me right
As long as we can make it to the show tonight
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American Band
Four young chiquitas in Omaha
Waitin' for the band to return from the show
A feelin' good, feelin' right and it's Saturday night
The hotel detective, he was outta sight
Now these fine ladies, they had a plan
They was out to meet the boys in the band
They said, "come on dudes, let's get it on"
And we proceeded to tear that hotel down
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're an American Band
We're comin' to your town
We'll help you party it down
We're an American Band
We're an American Band

Action Man In A Motown Suit
Action Man In A Motown Suit
Performer(s): 10 cc
Let's stay a while and watch him
He's moving into action man
He's looking good but maybe
He's in the wrong direction man
But he wanna get a little, get a little
Every night, get a little, get a little
Something for his appetite
Everybody needs to have a recreation
Everybody needs a little comfort for the soul
You'll never make it in a motown suit
No way to fake it man they're not your roots
No, you'll never make it in a motown suit
You can't be a drummer without rhythm
Can't blow your horn if you ain't blue
Some folks they just ain't got it in `em
Tell me boy now does that sound like you
He's cruising with the singles
Down the margarita bar
He's boring to distraction
Pushing words and talking stars
(What's your sign)
He's gotta take a little, take a little
On the side, make a little, make a little
Something for his appetite
Everybody needs a little lubrication
Someone with imagination got to break the ice
You'll never make it in a motown suit
No way to fake it man they're not your roots
No, you'll never make it in a motown suit
You can't be a lover without rhythm
Don't blow your horn if you ain't true
No point in playing Valentino
He's a sham and brother so are you
You can't be a drummer without rhythm
Can't blow your horn if you ain't blue
Some folks they just ain't got it in `em
Tell me boy now does that sound like you

'Cause we're almost there

Turn us around
'Cause we're almost there
We're almost there
We're almost there
Everything we're lookin' for
We're almost there
Keep on reachin' out for me
'Cause we're almost there darlin'

We're almost there
We're almost there
Ah we're almost there

Action In The Streets
Performer(s): Bruce Springsteen
Well don't move
Why don't you listen to what I'm saying
And hey you
You better get up if you plan to be staying
Get loose
You got to listen to what the band is playing
Oh tonight
There's action in the street all night
We're bopping to the big beat, go
Get up off your seat and roll
At school
The girls you know their dancing, mister 's just my speed
And hey cool
If action is the thing you need
Well don't fool
The kid's satisfaction guaranteed
Oh tonight
There's action in the street all night
We're bopping to the big beat, go
Get up off your seat and roll
Well hey man

Raise your hand
Shout until you're satisfied

Get up off your seat and roll

We're All Alone
We're All Alone
Composer(s): Boz Scaggs
Performer(s): Boz Scaggs;
and various other artists
Outside the rain begins
And it may never end
So cry no more
On the shore a dream
Will take us out to sea
Forever more, forever more
Close your eyes and dream
And you can be with me
'Neath the waves
Through the caves of hours
Long forgotten now
We're all alone, we're all alone
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be all right
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
Learn how to pretend
Once a story's told
It can't help but grow old
Roses do, lovers too
So cast your seasons to the wind
And hold me dear, oh-oh-oh, hold me dear
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be all right
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
All's forgotten now
We're all alone, ooh-ooh, we're all alone
Close the window, calm the light
And it will be all right
No need to bother now
Let it out, let it all begin
Owe it to the wind, my love

Wer Schreibt Heut' Noch Liebesbriefe
Wer Schreibt Heut' Noch Liebesbriefe
Composer(s): D. Zimmerman; Renée Marcard
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog
Wer schreibt heut' noch Liebesbriefe? Ich, ich, ich
Weil ich das nun mahl so gerne tu'
Doch ich schreib' sie alle nur an dich, dich, dich
Denn Liebe, wahre Liebe, die gehört zu Liebesbriefen schon dazu
Wenn man sich heut' was sagen will dann ist das schnell getan
Man geht zum nächsten Telefon und ruft einfach an
Und ist sie in Gerzerslo
Er jedoch anderswo
Ist man ganz modern
Und spricht eben fern
Wer schreibt heut' noch Liebesbriefe? Ich, ich, ich
Weil ich das nun mahl so gerne tu'
Doch ich schreib' sie alle nur an dich, dich, dich
Denn Liebe, wahre Liebe, die gehört zu Liebesbriefen schon dazu
Ich führ' auch noch ein Tagebuch weil ich romatisch bin
Auf jeder Seite stehst du da hundertmal schon drin
Ich träume auch noch gern zu zwein
Auf einer Bank im Mondenschein
Und bin gerne wahr
Ganz sentimental
Wer schreibt heut' noch Liebesbriefe? Ich, ich, ich
Weil ich das nun mahl so gerne tu'
Doch ich schreib' sie alle nur an dich, dich, dich
Denn Liebe, wahre Liebe, die gehört zu Liebesbriefen schon dazu
Denn Liebe, wahre Liebe, die gehört zu Liebesbriefen schon dazu

Acting Very Strange
Acting Very Strange
Composer(s): Mike Rutherford
Performer(s): Mike Rutherford
If I step into the light
And hold it in my hand
Nothing left to see,
Nothing left for me, anyway
I feel the world is slipping
Out of reach (I'm all alone)
It's a memory
It's a memory that used to be
In a little while
I know it'll be too late
Somebody help me, please
Cos you're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
Oh, you never come here any more
You never even call
To see if I'm alright
Get me through the night
Like you used to do
In a little while
I know it'll be too late
Now I'm certain
That you're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
Another lonely day without you, oh
I'm acting very strange without you, oh
Another lonely day without you, oh
I'm acting very strange without you, oh
Oh, the place is getting very hot
I'm afraid to stay
Something's going on
Something's very wrong with you and me
If I reach out to touch your face
There's nothing there to touch
It's a memory
It's a memory of you and me
In a little while
I know it'll be too late
Now I'm certain
That you're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
You're acting very strange
I'm acting very strange without you, oh
Another lonely day without you, oh
I'm acting very strange without you, oh
Another lonely day without you, oh
You're acting very strange...
I'm acting very strange without you, oh...

Wenn Ich Träum
Wenn Ich Träum
English Title: When I Dream
Composer(s): S. Mason-Theoret; Michael Künze
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri
Rosen vor dem Fenster
Und der Blick auf's Meer hinaus
Ein verwunschener alter Park
Ein Kiesweg vor dem Haus
Kleider und Geschenke
Was man sich nur wünschen kann
All das geb ich gerne her
Mir liegt nichts daran
Denn wenn ich träum
Träum ich von dir
Und frage mich wann
Kommst du zu mir
Keine Schwäche zeigen
Sich von ihrem Zwang befrei'n
Unabhängig selbstbewusst
Ich wollt es immer sein
Ich lege das Make up auf
Und zeige nicht was ich fühl
Doch ich glaube selbst nicht an
Die Rolle, die ich spiel
Denn wenn ich träum
Träum ich von dir
Und frage mich wann
Kommst du zu mir
Ja wenn ich träum
Träum ich von dir
Und frage mich wann
Kommst du zu mir
