Ett Liv I Solen
Ett Liv I Solen
((Adapted from: Anima Mia (I Cugini di Campagna) - 1973))
((French Version: Anima Mia (Dalida) - 1974))
Composer(s): Ivano Michetti - Flavio Paulin - Antonello De Sanctis - Matt Paulson
Performer(s): Frida - 1975
Nä r regnet öser ner från mörka skyar
Och gatan speglar lyktors bleka ljus
Då går jag ganska ensam och funderar
Inunder paraplyt i stadens brus
Så lever jag ett liv i mina drömmar
Om allt det som jag gjort och inte gjort
I rä nnsten rinner regn i strida strömmar
Och minner mej om tid som rinner bort
Jag stannar upp ett tag, försöker glömma
Och plötsligt står det klart i en sekund
Att det kan vara skönt att gå och drömma
Men livet det ä r nu i denna stund
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder
Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står
Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder
Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Nu ska jag aldrig mera se tillbaka (se tillbaka)
Den framtid som jag ser ä r ljus och fri (ljus och fri)
Och aldrig, aldrig mer ska jag försaka
Vad stunden ger av fä rg och fantasi
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder
Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står
Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder
Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder
Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står
Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder
Så sköljer vågen rent och lä mnar inga spår
Ett liv i solen, vid hav och strä nder
Dä r ljumma vindar kommer till mej dä r jag står
Ett liv i solen, vad som ä n hä nder...

De Andere Kant Van De Maan
De Andere Kant Van De Maan
((Adapted from: The Other Side Of The Sun (Janis Ian) - 1979))
Composer(s): Albert Hammond - Janis Ian - Dingeman Vochteloo
Performer(s): Conny Vandenbos - 1980
Ik neem de eerste trein en hoop dat-ie meteen zal gaan rijden
Ik wed dat je er niets van begrijpt, maar ik moest echt gaan
Ik kan niet langer leven met die ruzies, op de gekste tijden
Ik zou wel willen wonen aan de andere kant van de maan
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van'
Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man
Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig
Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan
En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan
Een eind op weg naar nergens begin ik toch weer ergens te dromen
Weet je hoe het was toen de zon elke morgen scheen
Vreemd, als het voorbij is, dan weet je dat het fout is gelopen
Omdat je wilde schuilen in je eigen luchtkasteel
Voor altijd en eeuwig
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van'
Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man
Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig
Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan
En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan
Voor altijd en eeuwig
Vluchten met gevoelens, wat zouden ze bedoelen met 'houden van'
Een leven lang die ene vrouw, die zelfde man
Moet dat nou, voor altijd en eeuwig
Ik ben ondersteboven maar blijf nog steeds geloven dat jij alleen me wel helpen kan
En me redden zal van die onbekende kant van de maan
Onbekende kant van de maan
Onbekende kant van de maan

Don't You Write Her Off
Don't You Write Her Off
Composer(s): R. Hippard - Roger McGuinn
Performer(s): McGuinn, Clark & Hillman
Been atop the New York skyline
Sailed across the ocean blue
Been alone on a desert island
And I've been a guru too
Don't you write her off like that
Don't you write her off like that
Don't you write her off like that
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
I met the girls in every city
Every town that I've passed thru
You won't find one half as pretty
Or one with a heart so true
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see
If you leave her now, he'll get her
Then I know you'll change your mind
You won't find one better
Can't you see that love is blind
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
Don't you write her off like that - don't you write her off
She's a real fine lady, don't you see ....

De Alguna Manera
De Alguna Manera
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute; Mercedes Sosa
De alguna manera
tendré que olvidarte
por mucho que quiera
no es fácil, ya sabes
me faltan las fuerzas
ha sido muy tarde
y nada más, y nada más
apenas nada más
Las noches te acercan
y enredas el aire
mis labios se secan
e intento besarte
qué fría es la cera
de un beso de nadie
y nada más, y nada más
apenas nada más
Las horas de piedra
parecen cansarse
y el tiempo se peina
con gesto de amante
de alguna manera
tendré que olvidarte
y nada más, y nada más
apenas nada más

Angustia (Raphael)
Angustia
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse - Nacho Artime
Performer(s): Raphael
Podria ser que perdiese la razon
Loco de verdad o es mi obsesion
Soy un buen hombre o soy un loco
Solo hay un paso entre un ser bueno y uno malo
Creo que debo volver al lugar de mi primer viaje
Retomar la senda, adquirir coraje
Creo que debo ser fiel al anhelo que me ha inspirado
Leal a mi sueño porque fui admirado
Y asi la cumbre volvere a pisar
Tendre de nuevo la vision
Andar el mundo hasta cualquier confin
Y asi llegar al fin de mi mision
Tengo que reconstruir lo que los vientos no han dispersado
Lo que mi destino no ha despedazado
Creo que debo seguir combatiendo cualquier engaño
Cumplire mi obra y no habra mas daño
¡Dios! yo te pido continuar
Aunque ya no pueda mas
Haz que pueda continuar

De 1920
De 1920
Performer(s): Fito Paez
Muérdele la cola
sácale los dientes
como una alimaña viene y se va
eran dos muchachas de 1920
lejos de los ruidos, lejos del mar
cuánto sale un taxi desde aquí a Constitución
como si lo que hubiéramos amado
Esto es una guerra, ya me han declarado
donde el enemigo puedo ser yo
todos los fantasmas, todos los países
todas las creencias, todo el dolor
vuela en su caballo despidiendo mucho gas
como si lo que hubiéramos amado
Dónde está mi casa
Debo dos materias
si te das la vuelta eres estatua de sal
Ya que no hay regreso, ya que no hay salida
quiero que me digan cómo parar
vuelves de tu casa y si no hay Whisky
un buen geniol
Como si lo que hubiéramos amado
Muérdele la cola
sácale los dientes
como una alimaña viene y se va
eran dos muchachas de 1920
lejos de los ruidos, lejos del mar

Angustia de no tenerte a ti
Tormento de no tener tu amor
Angustia de no besarte más
Nostalgia de no escutar tu voz

Nunca podré olvidar
Nuestras noches junto al mar
Contigo se fue toda ilusión
La angustia llenó mi corazon

Angry Eyes
Angry Eyes
Composer(s): Jim Messina - Kenny Loggins
First release by: Loggins & Messina - 1972
Time, time and again I see you staring down at me
Now, then and again I wonder what it is that you see
with those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes
You want to believe that I am not the same as you
And now I can't conceive, oh Lord, of what it is you're trying to do
with those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes
What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me
with those Angry Eyes
You and I must start to realize
Blindness binds us in a false disguise
Can you see me through those Angry Eyes?
You try to defend that you are not the one to blame
But I'm finding it hard, my friend, when I 'm in the deadly aim
of those Angry Eyes
Well, I bet you wish you could cut me down
with those Angry Eyes
What a shot you could be if you could shoot at me
with those Angry Eyes

Dayton, Ohio 1903
Dayton, Ohio 1903
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Originally performed by: Randy Newman
Covered by various other artists
Sing a song of long ago
When things were green and movin' slow
And people'd stop to say hello
Or they'd say "hi" to you
"Would you like to come over for tea
With the missus and me?"
It's a real nice way
To spend the day
In Dayton, Ohio
On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903
Sing a song of long ago
When things could grow
And days flowed quietly
The air was clean and you could see
And folks were nice to you
"Would you like to come over for tea
With the missus and me?"
It's a real nice way
To spend the day
In Dayton, Ohio
On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903

Angry
Angry
Composer(s): Henry Brunies - Jules Cassard - Dudley Mecum
Performer(s): Dudley Mecum's Wolverines
and multiple other artists
True love never does run smooth
At least that's what I'm told
If that is true then our love
Surely must be good as gold
How we battle ev'ry day
And when I want a kiss
I have to start explaining
And it sounds about like this
Dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you
I wouldn't even let you think of leavin'
Don't you know I love you true
Just because I took a look at somebody else
That's no reason you should put poor me on the shelf
Dearie, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you
Don't believe a thing you hear, just wait 'till you see
Then you'll find no cause to show that you're jealous of me
Oh! Angry, please don't be angry
'Cause I was only teasing you

Daytime Friends
Daytime Friends
Composer(s): Ben Peters
Performer(s): Kenny Rogers; Ted Hawkins
And he'll tell her - He's working late again
But she knows to well there's something goin' on
She's been neglected - and she needs a friend
So her trembling fingers dial the telephone
And Lord, it hurts her - doin' this again
He's the best friend that her husband ever knew
When she's lonely - he's more than just a friend
He's the one she loans her body to
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
Hoping no one else discovers
Where they go - What they do
In their secret hideaway
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers
They don't want to hurt the others
So they love - In the nighttime
And shake hands in the light of day
And when it's over - there's no peace of mind
Just a longin' for the way things should have been
And she wonders - Why some men never find
That a woman needs a lover and a friend
Daytime friends and nighttime lovers ...

Änglamark
Änglamark
Composer(s): Evert Taube
Performer(s): Sven Bertil Taube; Lisa Ekdahl; Anders Lundin
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna
Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm
Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar
Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm
Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar
Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur
Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa
Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur
Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna
Låt barnen dansa som änglar kring lönn och alm
Leka "titt ut" mellan blommande grenar
Låt fåglar leva och sjunga för oss sin psalm
Låt fiskar simma kring bryggor och stenar
Sluta att utrota skogarnas alla djur
Låt örnen flyga, låt rådjuren löpa
Låt sista älven som brusar i vår natur
Brusa alltjämt mellan fjäril och gran och fur
Kalla den änglamarken eller himlajorden om du vill
Jorden vi ärvde och lunden den gröna
Vildrosor och blåsippor och linblommor och kamomill
Låt dem få leva, de är ju så sköna

Days That Used To Be
Days That Used To Be
Composer(s): Neil Young
Originally performed by: Neil Young
Covered by: Ad Vanderveen
People say don't rock the boat, let things go their own way
Ideas that once seemed so right, now have gotten hard to say
I wish I could talk to you, you could talk to me
'Cause there very few of us left my friend
From the days that used to be
Seem like such a simple thing to follow one's own dream
But possessions and concession are not often what they seem
They drag you down and load you down in disguise of security
But we never had to make those deals
In the days that used to be
Talk to me, my long lost friend, tell me how you are
Are you happy with your circumstance, are you driving a new car
Does it get you where you wanna go, with a seven year warranty
Or just another hundred thousand miles away
From days that used to be

Days Of Wine And Roses
Days Of Wine And Roses
Composer(s): Johnny Mercer; Henry Mancini
Performer(s): Andy Williams
The days of wine and roses
laugh and run away like a child at play
Through a meadow land toward a closing door
A door marked "nevermore" that wasn't there before
The lonely night discloses just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you
(The lonely night discloses) just a passing breeze filled with memories
Of the golden smile that introduced me to
The days of wine and roses and you-oo-oo

Badlands
Badlands
Composer(s): Bruce Springsteen
First release by: Bruce Springsteen - 1978
Lights out tonight
trouble in the heartland
Got a head-on collision
smashin' in my guts, man
I'm caught in a cross fire
that I don't understand
But there's one thing I know for sure girl
I don't give a damn
For the same old played out scenes
I don't give a damn
For just the in betweens
Honey, I want the heart, I want the soul
I want control right now
you better listen to me baby
talk about a dream
Try to make it real
you wake up in the night
With a fear so real
spend your life waiting
for a moment that just don't come
Well, don't waste your time waiting
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
and these badlands start treating us good
Workin' in the fields
till you get your back burned
Workin' 'neath the wheels
till you get your facts learned
Baby I got my facts
learned real good right now
You better get it straight darling
Poor man wanna be rich
rich man wanna be king
And a king ain't satisfied
till he rules everything
I wanna go out tonight
I wanna find out what I got
Well I believe in the love that you gave me
I believe in the faith that could save me
I believe in the hope
and I pray that some day
It may raise me above these
Badlands, you gotta live it everyday
Let the broken hearts stand
As the price you've gotta pay
We'll keep pushin' till it's understood
and these badlands start treating us good
mmmmmmmm, mmmmm, mmmmmm
For the ones who had a notion
a notion deep inside
That it ain't no sin
to be glad you're alive
I wanna find one face
that ain't looking through me
I wanna find one place
I wanna spit in the face of these badlands

Days Like These
Days Like These
Performer(s): Saga
I thought that passed this way again
I feel the changes in my heart
I still have questions that I've asked myself a million times
I know the answers can't be that far behind
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
I know that dawn will take away the distant day
Tomorrow always finds a way
'Cause we're just passing through on our way to another stage
And thoughts that linger will be those of today
I won't forget you're always there
And don't you know I'll always care
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
Thoughts that linger will always be the same
There will never be days like these again
There'll never be days like these again
You know we'll always be the same
There'll never be days like these again
And though the reasons always change
There'll never be days like these again
