Performer(s): The Temptations
(Angel doll)
(Angel doll)
You excite me everytime you speak
When you touch me I get, oh, so weak
I have never met a girl like you, baby
You're the one that I'll give my whole life to
All I wanna say is angel doll
When I met you there with holiness
You're my everything I must confess
I have never known such tenderness
Baby, you can't compare this love we share
That takes away my feels, yeah
This love and real I can't conceal
And I'm so, so, so glad you're here
Angel doll, it will be a great catastrophe, baby
And my whole world would comin' down on me
If our love would ever seize to be
That's why I call you, angel doll
You're the substance of my every prayer, baby
I'll be happy with you anywhere
Let me shield you with my loving care
Heaven must have sent you, honey
You're an angel in disguise, yeah
'Cause all the love I wanted so long
I can see it in your eyes
Angel doll, you're the reason that I carry on, baby
I can't make it, I can't make it by myself alone
You're the one that I'm depending upon
Angel doll, you know that I love you
Angel doll, I put no one above you
Angel doll, you knock me off of my feet
Angel doll, you make my whole life complete
Angel doll ...

Darla Dirladada (French Version)
Darla Dirladada
Composer(s): Boris Bergman; J. Musy
Performer(s): Dalida
Adieu Monsieur tout est fini
Quitte moi et refais ta vie
Je préférais la fleur des champs
Toi le soleil de ses vingt ans
Monsieur tu n'étais pas fidèle
A ce qu'en disait mes amis
Il faisait bon dans le logis
Adieu Monsieur j'avais du cœur
Elle a deux champs et un tracteur
Et moi je n'ai que mes deux mains
Pour semer le vent et le grain
Adieu Monsieur pendant que t'aime
Moi j'irai voir pousser les graines
Adieu Monsieur tout est fini
Adieu l'enfant tu pars aussi
On dit que la ville c'est mieux qu'ici
Tu pourras avoir des voitures
Comme dans les livres d'aventures
Je n'ai qu'une enfant, c'est ma terre
Je n'ai qu'une amie, la rivière
Elle est à moi elle me connaît
Quand elle danse sur les galets
Elle fait dirla dirladada, et dirlada dirladada
Cour le furet file la vague
Je vivrai dans un monde d'algues
Qui fait dirla dirladada
Adieu l'enfant, adieu marie
Laissez-moi donc vivre ma vie
Il est temps de couper le seigle
Je crois que je vous ai tout dit
Je n'ai qu'une enfant, c'est ma terre
Je n'ai qu'une amie, la rivière
Elle fait dirla dirladada
Court le furet file la vague
Je vivrai dans un monde d'algues
Qui fait dirla dirladada
Et j'aurais l'océan pour toi
Qui chante ladirladada ladidir dirladada
Redirlada dirladada oh dadadadirladada
Qui chante ladirladada...

Angel Child

Arthur "Big Boy" Crudup
and multiple other artists
You're just as sweet as an angel
I'm happy when you are near
I couldn't do without you
Really dear, I am sincere
Dear, since you gave me your answer
My happiness is complete
It seems in all my dreaming
I repeat, mem'ries so sweet
Angel child, I'm just wild about you
Angel child, say that you love me too
In your arms forever I'd stay
You drive away, shadows of gray
When you smile, I'm in heaven it's true
Cuddle closer do
Angel child, I'm just putting it mild
When I say that I'm wild about you

I've got some good news, honey
An invitation to the Darktown Ball
It's a very swell affair

You wear your Paris gown and your new silk shawl
There ain't no doubt about it babe
We'll be the best dressed in the hall
chorus
I'll be down to get you in a taxi, honey
You better be ready about half past eight
Now dearie, don't be late
I want to be there when the band starts playing
Remember when we get there, honey
The two-steps I'm goin' to have 'em all
Goin' to dance out both my shoes
When they play the "Jelly Roll Blues"
Tomorrow night, at the Darktown Strutter's Ball
We'll meet our hightoned neighbors
An exhibition of the "Baby Dolls"
And each one will do their best
Just to outclass the rest
And there'll be dancers from ev'ry foreign land
The classic, buck and wing, and the wooden clog
We'll win that fifty dollar prize
When we step out and "Walk The Dog"

Darkness, Darkness
Darkness, Darkness
Composer(s): Jesse Colin Young
Originally performed by: The Youngbloods
Covered by various other artists
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, has me yearning
For things that cannot be
Keep me my mind from constant turning
Toward the things it cannot see
Things it cannot see
Things it cannot see
Darkness, darkness, long and lonesome
As the day brings the pain
I have found the edge of stillness
I live in the depth of fear
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with endless night
Take away the pain that flows away
Fill the emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright
Darkness, darkness, be my pillow
Take my hand, and let me sleep
In the coolness of your shadow
In the silence of your deep
Darkness, darkness, be my blanket
Cover me with endless night
Take away the pain that flows away
Fill the emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright
Emptiness with bright

Angel Baby (Dean Martin)
Angel Baby
Composer(s): Michael - Niessen
Performer(s): Dean Martin
(Angel baby you're mine forever)
(Angel baby, you angel baby you)
Who is the dream who starts me dreaming
Angel baby
Then keeps me worrying and schemeing
You, angel baby, you
Who starts me walking 'round in clover
Angel baby
Then flips my crazy heart right over
You, angel baby, you
Who is the chick I would pick as the absolutely perfect miss for me to kiss
Who is the girl who can curl me around her finger when we kiss again
Who can imagine what I'd give for Angel baby
Just for the chance to love and live for
You, angel baby, you
(Angel baby) you're mine forever
(Angel baby) you, angel baby, you
(Who is the chick he would pick as the absolutely perfect miss for him to kiss)
(Who is the girl who can twirl him around her little finger when they kiss again)
Who can imagine what I'd give for Angel baby
Just for the chance to love and live for
You, angel baby, you
(Angel baby) you're mine forever
(Angel baby) you, angel baby, you

Darkness On The Delta
Darkness On The Delta
Composer(s): Jerry Livingston; Al J. Neilburg; Marty Symes
Performer(s): Cassandra Wilson
and various other artists
When it's darkness on the delta
that's the time my heart is light
When it's darkness on the delta
let me linger in the shelter of the night
Fields of cotton all around me
darkies singin' sweet and low
Lord I'm lucky that you found me
Where the muddy Mississippi waters flow
Lounging on the levee
Listenin' to the nightingales way up above
Laughter on the levee, no one's heart is heavy
All God's children got someone to love
When it's darkness on the delta
Only heaven is in sight
When it's darkness on the delta
let me linger in the shelter of the night

Angel And The Badman
Angel And The Badman
Composer(s): Johnny Cash
Performer(s): Johnny Cash
There was a man whose deeds were dark as night
And quite by chance he rode into the light
A man wild as the dust devil with no place to run
Livin' by his wits and by his gun
He met a girl like none he had ever known
She cared not for the wild oats he had sown
And so he laid his gun down and set his spirit free
Began living in respectability
But his old ways of thinkin' wouldn't die
Could not forget the old creed he lived by
And the good and bad and right and wrong kept fightin' for his soul
Till his heart and mind both went out of control
But now the old saloon had lost its spell
What once was laughter now was living hell
And the hookers, guns and drinkin' in his life were out of place
And in his mind he saw an angel's face
So he burned all his bridges in a day
And the devil deeds were done and laid away
And he rode out a better man than when he first rode in
And the angel got the badman in the end

Darkness
Darkness
Composer(s): Gene Pitney
Performer(s): Roy Orbison
Darkness, darkness, hungry to the bone
Darkness, darkness, take my body home
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
She like a pooka
She holy roller, love me like a song
She like a lightning
She roller coaster, 'till the break of dawn
She like a shadow
She all around me, nasty hearted dream
She got the sexy
She do it to me, wake me when I dream
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love
Now I lay me down to sleep, goodnight
Pray the Lord my soul will keep tonight
If I die before I wake, in your arms my love can't break away
Darkness (she like a shadow)
Darkness (she all around me)
Nasty hearted dream
Darkness (she got the sexy)
Darkness (she do it to me)
Wake me when I scream
God I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love, I'm in love

Performer(s): Julien Clerc; Françoise Hardy
Tu rêvais d'un amour
Tout en soie et velours
Que dire maintenant
Je n'étais qu'un chasseur
Capturant les cœurs
Volage, Don Juan
Tu as posé tes yeux bleu ciel
Sur moi et j'ai vu les ailes
D'un ange de lumière
À la sortie d'un tunnel
Bel ange
Mon ange
Mélange
Se venge
Se change
En
Démon
Mon ange
Me mord
Me mange
J'suis mort
J'suis marron
Toi la petite fille sage
Qui a peur de l'orage
Que faire maintenant
Jouer à la poupée
Douc'ment te bercer
T'aimer tout le temps
Malgré tout l'or et tout le miel
De ton cœur si fidèle
J'suis pas l'ange dont tu rêves
Ça non j'descends pas du ciel
J'dérange
Mon ange
Je change
Quand l'ange
Se change
En
Prison
J'décole
J'm'envole
Je flâne
Je plane
J'fais des bonds
Mon ange
Se fâche
Mon ange
Se cache
Me lache
Pour
De bon
Mon ange
Que j'aime
J't'ai fait
D'la peine
Oublions
Moi pour faire sécher tes larmes
Vois, j'ai déposé les armes
Tu sais bien c'est toujours toi qui gagnes
Plus de chagrin plus de drames
Malgré tout l'or et tout le miel
De ton cœur si fidèle
J'suis pas l'ange dont tu rêves
Ça non j'descends pas du ciel
J'dérange
Mon ange
Je change
Quand l'ange
Se change
En
Prison
J'décole

Dark Star
Dark Star
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia; Mickey Hart; Robert Hunter;
Bill Kreutzmann; Phil Lesh; Ron "Pigpen" McKernan; Bob Weir
Performer(s): The Grateful Dead
Dark star crashes, pouring its light into ashes
Reason tatters, the forces tear loose from the axis
Searchlight casting for faults in the clouds of delusion
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?
Mirror shatters in formless reflections of matter
Glass hand dissolving to ice petal flowers revolving
Lady in velvet recedes in the nights of goodbye
Shall we go, you and I while we can
Through the transitive nightfall of diamonds?

Nuje ca perdimmo 'a pace e 'o suonno
Nun ce dicimmo maje pecché
Vocche ca vase nun ne vonno
Nun só' sti vvocche oje né
Pure, te chiammo e nun rispunne
Pe' fá dispietto a me
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core
Nun ce lassammo cchiù, manco pe' n'ora
Stu desiderio 'e te mme fa paura
Campá cu te, sempe cu te, pe' nun murí
Che ce dicimmo a fá parole amare
Si 'o bbene po' campá cu nu respiro
Si smanie pure tu pe' chist'ammore
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core
Forse sarrá ca 'o chianto è doce
Forse sarrá ca bene fa
Quanno mme sento cchiù felice
Nun è felicitá
Specie si ê vvote tu mme dice
Distratta, 'a veritá
Tenímmoce accussí, ánema e core

Covered by various other artists
Dark moon, a way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, what is the cause your light withdraws?
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love?
Mortals have dreams of love's perfect schemes
But they don't realize that love will sometimes bring a
Dark moon, a way up high up in the sky
Oh, tell me why, oh, tell me why you've lost your splendor
Dark moon, what is the cause your light withdraws?
Is it because, is it because I've lost my love?
Mortals have dreams of love's perfect schemes

Andy's Chest
Andy's Chest
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): Lou Reed
If I could be anything in the world that flew
I would be a bat and come swooping after you
And if the last time you were here, things were a bit askew
Well, you know what happens after dark
When rattlesnakes loose their skins and their hearts
And all the missionaries loose their bark
All the trees are calling after you
And all the venom snipers after you
Are all the mountains boulder after you
If I could be anything of the things in this world that bite
Instead of being a tethered ocelot on a leash
I'd rather be your kite
And be tied to the end of your string
And flying in the air, babe, at night
Because you know what they say about honey bears
When you shave off all their baby hair
You've got a hairy minded big bare bear
And all the bells are rolling out for you
And stones are all erupting out for you
And all the cheap bloodsuckers are flying after you
Yesterday, Daisy Mae end Biff were grooving down the street
And just like in a movie, her hands became her feet
Her belly button was her mouth
Which meant she tasted what she'd speak
But the funny thing is what happened to her nose
It grew until it reached all of her toes
Now, when people say her feet smell, they mean her nose
And curtains laced with diamonds, dear, for you
And kingdom's Christian sailors (soldiers), dear, for you
And melting ice cap mountains, dear, for you
And knights in flaming silver robes for you
And bats, that with a kiss turn prince for you
Swoop, swoop, oh, baby, rock, rock ...

Dark Lady
Dark Lady
Composer(s): Johnny Durrill
Performer(s): Cher
The fortune queen of New Orleans
Was brushing her cat in her black limousine
On the backseat were scratches from
The marks of men her fortune she had won
Couldn't see through the tinted glass
She said "Home James" and he hit the gas
I Followed her to some darkened room
She took my money, she said "I'll be with you soon"
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself
She dealt two cards, a queen and a three
And mumbled some words that were so strange to me
Then she turned up a two-eyed jack
My eyes saw red but the card still stayed black
She said the man you love is secretly true
To someone else who is very close to you
My advice is that you leave this place
Never come back and forget you ever saw my face
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself
So I ran home and crawled in my bed
I couldn't sleep because of all the things she said
Then I remembered her strange perfume
And how I smelled it was in my own room!
So I sneaked back and caught her with my man
Laughing and kissing till they saw the gun in my hand
The next thing I knew they were dead on the floor
Dark Lady would never turn a card up anymore
Dark Lady laughed and danced and lit the candles one by one
Danced to her gypsy music till her brew was done
Dark Lady played back magic till the clock struck on the twelve
She told me more about me than I knew myself

Sage Comme Une Image
Sage Comme Une Image
Composer(s): Jay Alanski - Jacques Duvall
First release by: Lio - 1980
C'est non mais ne crois pas
Que j'ai pas encore l'âge
Ce n'est rien d'autre
Qu'une affaire de maquillage
Tu risquerais d'ôter
Le rouge de ma bouche
Je ne touche personne
Et personne ne me touche
Je suis sage comme une image
Sage comme une image
Brillante à la page
Mais pas pour ton usage
Allongée dans ma chambre
Distraite je contemple
Le téléphone qui sonne
Et pourtant il me semble
T'avoir bien prévenu
Je ne réponds jamais
C'est vraiment gentil
D'avoir pensé à moi
C'est vraiment gentil
D'avoir pensé à moi... Mais
Si parfois je m'ennuie
Ce n'est pas vraiment grave
Les petites filles modernes
Ne pleurent pas car elles savent
Elles n'attendent personne
Elles préfèrent jouer seules
Et apprendre à mener le jeu
Comme elles le veulent
Tous les disques que j'aime
Me parlent et me protègent
Il n'y a qu'à les jouer pour
Que les nuits s'abrègent
Les pochettes défilent
Et j'aimerai assez
Pouvoir être comme elles
De papier glacé

Dark Horse
Dark Horse
Composer(s): George Harrison
Performer(s): George Harrison
You thought that you knew where I was and when
But it looks like they've been foolin' you again
You thought that you'd got me all steaked out
But baby looks like I've been breaking out
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse
You thought you had got me in your grip
Baby looks like you was not so smart
And I became too slippery for you
But let me say that was nothing new
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I picked up my first spoon
I've been a cool jerk
Looking for the source
I'm a dark horse
I thought that you knew it all along
Until you started getting me not right
Seems as if you heared a little late
But I warned you when
We both were at the starting gate
I'm a dark horse
Running on a dark race course
I'm a blue moon
Since I stepped from out of the womb
I've been a cool jerk
Cooking at the source
I'm a dark horse
