Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Those were the times we had
Sharing a joy that we thought would last
Memories of love and affection
Never really was just like a dream
Was it the simple things
That made me so crazy about you
Was it your charm or your passion
It's not hard to believe
I love you and I need you so I ...
Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Did we give up too soon
Maybe we needed just a little room
Wondering how it all happened
Maybe we just need a little time
Though we did end as friends
Given the chance we could love again
She'll always love you forever
It's not hard to believe
I want you and I need you so I ...
Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Sending you forget me nots
To help me to remember
Baby please forget me not
I want you to remember
Sending you forget me nots
Baby please forgive me not
Good times we had ...
They weren't so bad ...
What a life we shared ...
Pretty baby I still care ...

Dear Lonely Hearts...
I'm-a writing to you
You said you could help
People looking for love
I've been so lonely
I don't know what to do
And that is why
I'm writing this letter to you
(It's no use livin')
When you're alone
Please help me find
A love of my own
If you know someone
Please tell me who
Dear Lonely Hearts...
I'd be so grateful to you
(So grateful to you)
(She don't have to have money)
She don't have to have money
(She don't have to be a queen)
She don't have to be a queen
(As long as she loves me)
As long as she loves me
(That's the important thing)
That's the important thing
'Cause I'm gonna love her
(I'm gonna love her)
I'll always be true
(I'll always be true)
Dear Lonely Hearts
Oh, please
See what you can do
(See what you can do)
I guess that's all
(I guess that's all)
I'm gonna close for now
(I'm gonna close for now)
But try to find
(Please try to find)
Somebody, somehow
(somebody, somehow)
If you know someone
Please tell me who
Dear Lonely Hearts...
I'd be so grateful
To you
(Grateful to you)

Ridin' in a bus down the boulevard
And the place was pretty packed!
Couldn't find a seat, so I had to stand
With the perverts in the back!
It was smellin' like a locker room
There was junk all over the floor!
We're already packed in like sardines
But we're stoppin' to pick up more!
Look out!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
And another comes on
And another comes on!
Another one rides the bus!
Hey!
He's gonna sit by you!
Another one rides the bus!
There's a suitcase pokin' me in the ribs
There's an elbow in my ear!
There's a smelly old bum standin' next to me
Hasn't showered in a year!
Well, I think I'm missin' a contact lens
And I think my wallet's gone!
And I think this bus is stoppin' again
To let a couple more freaks get on!
Look out!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
And another comes on
And another comes on!
Another one rides the bus!
Hey!
He's gonna sit by you!
Another one rides the bus!
(Yeh!) Huh ah huh ah huh ah huh ah!
Another one rides the bus
Another one rides the bus-ow!
Another one rides the bus-hey, hey!
Another one rides the bus-hey-y-y-y!
The window doesn't open, and the fan is broke
And my face is turnin' blue! (yeh!)
I haven't been in a crowd like this
Since I went to see The Who!
Well, I should'a got off a couple miles ago
But I couldn't get to the door!
There isn't any room for me to breathe!
Now we're gonna pick up more, yeah!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
Another one rides the bus-ah!
And another comes on
And another comes on!
Another one rides the bus!
Hey!
He's gonna sit by you!
Another one rides the bus!
Go! (go)
Yeh! (yeh)

Dear Landlord
Dear Landlord
Composer(s): Bob Dylan
First release by: Bob Dylan - 1967
Covered by multiple other artists
Dear landlord
Please don't put a price on my soul
My burden is heavy
My dreams are beyond control
When that steamboat whistle blows
I'm gonna give you all I got to give
And I do hope you receive it well
Depending on the way you feel that you live
Dear landlord
Please heed these words that I speak
I know you've suffered much
But in this you are not so unique
Each of us, at times, we might work too hard
To have it too fast and too much
And anyone who fills his life up
With things he can see but he just cannot touch
Dear landlord
Please don't dismiss my case
I'm not about to argue
I'm not about to move to no other place
Each of us, he has his own special gifts
And you know this was meant to be true
And if you don't underestimate me
I won't underestimate you

Ooh, let's go
Steve walks warily down the street
With the brim pulled way down low
Ain't no sound but the sound of his feet
Machine guns ready to go
Are you ready, hey, are you ready for this
Are you hangin' on the edge of your seat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat - yeah
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust, eh
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
How do you think I'm going to get along
Without you when you're gone
You took me for everything that I had
And kicked me out on my own
Are you happy? Are you satisfied?
How long can you stand the heat
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
To the sound of the beat
Look out
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust, eh
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Hey
Oh take it
Bites the dust - bite the dust hey
Hey
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust, ow
Another one bites the dust, hey hey
Another one bites the dust, heeey
Ooh show down
There are plenty of ways that you can hurt a man
And bring him to the ground
You can beat him
You can cheat him
You can treat him bad and leave him
When he's down, yeah
But I'm ready, yes I'm ready for you
I'm standing on my own two feet
Out of the doorway the bullets rip
Repeating to the sound of the beat
Oh yeah
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
And another one gone and another one gone
Another one bites the dust, yeah
Hey, I'm gonna get you too
Another one bites the dust
Shoot out
Hey, alright

Dear John (Nazareth)
Dear John
Composer(s): Pete Agnew - Manny Charlton - Dan McCafferty - Darrell Sweet
Performer(s): Nazareth
You came 'round today
You never even knocked on my door
Your note tried to say
That you don't love me no more
I want you by my side cause
I wanna be your man
I'm burning up inside cause
I wanna be your man
I had to be told
From people that I meet in the street
They are turning cold
Without you I would not be complete
Why did you write me in a letter
A word from you would be much better
Don't cast me aside
Without you I could never survive
Why did you decide
To kill the love that keeps me alive

C´mon latino a bailar esta cumbia
es la clicka que tu alma inunda
juro que nunca he comido un ladrillo
porque soy cruza de perra, de potrillo
No tengo historia en conversar con tus piernas
siempre que ellas me muestran su belleza
tengo un terreno en la re-a-leza
tengo la gloria, no he besado a la reina
Por que al decir no va mas
me entregas un lugar
Donde respirar, es elemental
yea, si el cosmos es muerte
no quiero hacer el equivalente
a un alma que esta viva
pero solo por suerte...
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
and another one bites
and another one bites
Another one bites the dust
Si me ves caminando no me detengas
no me interesa lo que quieras que sepa
Llevo tatuada la vida doblada
de vidas, partidas esperando el alba
y nunca aparecio cielo se cerraba
cada vez que sueñan con mi gente era enterrada
un angel de luz me guia por el camino
dejo caer en el roño destino
destruir al mito de que tu eras la reina
no aspiro a ser esclavo de esa mierda
juro que nunca he comido un ladrillo
soy la pared mas metal que tu has visto
nunca he sufrido algo de tu castigo
puedo volar con solo comer higos (bueno polaco todo comprendido)
asi soy yo, no le pido nada al olmo
no por eso te digo que otro muerde el polvo
Another one bites the dust
Another one bites the dust
and another one bites
and another one bites
Another one bites the dust
Despierto de un mal sueño donde yo era peor
quedando en tu culo subiendome al monton
de mujeres, yeah, todas para mi
desnudas en mi cama
y que aparezca al fin!

Dear John (Hank Williams)
Dear John
Composer(s): Aubry Gass - Tex Ritter
Performer(s): Hank Williams
Well when I woke up this mornin'
There was a note upon my door
Said don't make me no coffee Babe
'cause I won't be back no more
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've sent your saddle home
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale
Daniel in the lion's den
But I know a guy that didn't try to get along
And he won't get a chance again
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've fetched your saddle home
Now she didn't forward no address
Nor she didn't say goodbye
All she said was if you get blue
Just hang your little head and cry
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've sent your saddle home
Now my gal's short and stubby
She's strong as she can be
But if that little old gal of mine
Ever get's a-hold of me
That's all she wrote, Dear John
I've sent your saddle home
Now Jonah got along in the belly of the whale
Daniel in the lion's den
But I know a man that didn't try to get along
And he won't get a chance again
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've fetched your saddle home
Now I went down to the bank this morning
The cashier said with a grin
I feel so sorry for you Hank
But your wife has done been in
And that's all she wrote, Dear John
I've sent your saddle home

Nummer Eén
Nummer Eén
Composer(s): Walter Grootaers - Imants
Performer(s): De Kreuners
Ik wou altijd al nummer 1 zijn
Maar er aan denken alleen al deed zo’n pijn
Maar nu, nu kom ik er aan
Nu is er de chip en word ik nummer 1
Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Vreemde talen waren altijd een probleem
Dank zij dat ding worden zij nu mijn embleem
Nu is het dans la poche
Nu is er de chip en word ik nummer 1
Dankzij de chip word ik nummer 1
Mijn IQ is beneden alle peil
Een chip kost geld maar het geeft je dan ook stijl
Nu stijgt mijn geld ten top
Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1
Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Chip maak me vrij
Chip maak me blij
Mijn geheugen was altijd één grote zeef
Elektronica zet het weer op safe
Nu, nu kom ik er aan
Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1
Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1
Heel de toekomst die is nu voor mij
Want het verleden dat is allang voorbij
Nu gaat alles als vanzelf
Nu en chip en word ik nummer 1
Dank zij de chip word ik nummer 1

Dear Hearts And Gentle People
Composer(s): Bob Hilliard - Sammy Fain
Performer(s): Dinah Shore
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live in my home town
Because those dear hearts and gentle people
Will never ever let you down
They read the good Book from Fri' till Monday
That's how the weekend goes
I've got a dream house I'll build there one day
With picket fence and ramblin' rose
I feel so welcome each time that I return
That my happy heart keeps laughin' like a clown
I love the dear hearts and gentle people
Who live and love in my home town
There's a place I'd like to go and it's Batten, Idaho
Where your friendly neighbors smile and say "Hello"
It's a pleasure and a treat to meander down the street
That's why I want the whole wide world to know
I love those dear hearts and gentle people
Who live in my home town
Because those dear hearts and gentle people
Will never ever let you down

Another Night
Another Night
Composer(s): Hal David - Burt Bacharach
First release by: Dionne Warwick - 1966
Another night, another dream, and always you
It's like a vision of love that seems to be true
Another night, another dream, and always you
In the night I dream of a love so true
Just another night, another vision of love
You feel joy, you feel pain
'Cause nothing will be the same
Just another night, it's all that it takes
To understand the difference between
lovers and fakes, oh baby
I talk, talk, I talk to you
In the night in your dream of love so true
I talk, talk, I talk to you
In the night in your dream of love so true
In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone
Another night, another dream, and always you
It's like a vision of love that seems to be true
Another night, another dream, and always you
In the night I dream of a love so true
Just another night, another dream
Another vision of love
And we are here to set you free
I am the lover, your lover
Hey, sister, let me cover your body with my loving
Is my loving just a number?
Vision of love that seems to be true
we will do all the things that only lovers do
Vision of love that seems to be true
we will do all the things that only lovers do
In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone
Another night, another dream, and always you
It's like a vision of love that seems to be true
Another night, another dream, and always you
In the night I dream of a love so true
I talk, talk, I talk to you
In the night in your dream of love so true
I talk, talk, I talk to you
In the night in your dream of love so true
In the night, in my dreams
I'm in love with you
'Cause you talk to me, like lovers do
I feel joy, I feel pain, 'cause it's still the same
when the night is gone I'll be alone
Another night, another dream, and always you
It's like a vision of love that seems to be true
Another night, another dream, and always you
In the night I dream of a love so true

Dear Heart
wish you were here to warm this night
My dear heart
seems like a year
since you've been out of my sight
A single room, a table for one
it's a lonesome town all right!
But soon I'll kiss you hello
at our front door
and dear heart I want you to know
I'll leave your arms nevermore

Le Folklore Américain
((Adapted from: They Gotta Quit Kickin' My Dog (by The New Christy Minstrels) - 1965))
Composer(s): Nick Woods - Scott Holtzman - Vivian Holtzman - Jacques Plante - Claude Carrère
Performer(s): Sheila - 1965
Je ne sais pas si vous êtes comme moi
Mais chaque fois ça me met en joie
D'écouter jouer sur un crin-crin
Un vieil air du folklore américain
Aussitôt je me vois déjà
Au fin fond de l'Arizona
Affublée d'un grand chapeau
Et grattant sur un vieux banjo
Woh……… Ring ding ding
L'Amérique ça me fait rêver
Et pourtant je n'y suis jamais allée
Mais je connais tous les refrains
Tous les airs du folklore américain
Et je sais qu'un jour viendra
Où j'irai faire un tour là bas
Pour pouvoir danser aussi
Comme les filles du Tennessee
Woh……… Ring ding ding
Si un jour un garçon me plaît
Les premiers temps je lui demanderai
Si comme moi il aime bien
Les vieux airs du folklore américain
S'il dit oui c'est merveilleux
Nous pourrons rêver tous les deux
Qu'on se promène dans la nuit
Sous les étoiles de la Virginie
Woh……… Ring ding ding
Et plus tard si nous nous marions
C'est pas Venise que nous choisirons
Car les gondoles ça ne vaut rien
Pour les airs du folklore américain
Je voudrais tellement qu'il soit
Aussi sentimental que moi
Au bord du Mississipi
Nous pourrions passer notre vie
Woh……… Ring ding ding………
Ring ding ding car j'aime bien
Le folklore américain
Ring ding ding car j'aime bien
Le folklore américain
Ring ding ding car j'aime bien
Le folklore américain
Ring ding ding car j'aime bien
Le folklore américain……

Dear Elaine
Dear Elaine
Composer(s): Roy Wood
Performer(s): Roy Wood
My dear Elaine, may I see you again?
For I've loved you and I hope to be forgiven
It's been a cold night
How I long to see the light
To have you there, to feel your hair
Dear Elaine, will it still be the same?
From the gateway to your arms I am forbidden
It's been a cold night
Need the love that burns so bright
To have you there, to feel your hair
Thoughts that once remained discreet
Fall like servants at your feet
Ah ah ah
Come here, Elaine, please attend to the pain
Please relieve the darkened clouds of evening
Prayers I could say
How you swept them all away
I can't believe you chose to leave
God that wears a sallow face
Seems to put me in my place
Ah ah ah
Dear Elaine, will it still be the same?
Now the house of spirit crumbles
For your love wears many gowns
Love has risen, it has stumbled
Dear Elaine, why should you wish to leave?
Dear Elaine, may I see you again
For I've loved you and I hope to be forgiven
It's been a cold night
How I long to see the light
To have you there, to feel your hair
Dear Elaine

Another Nail In My Heart
Another Nail In My Heart
Composer(s): Chris Difford - Glenn Tilbrook
Performer(s): Squeeze
The case was pulled from under the bed
She made a call to a sympathetic friend
And made arrangements
The door was closed, there was a note
I couldn't be bothered
Maybe I'll choke, no more engagements
With "where-have-you-beens?"
And far away frowns
Trying to be good by not being 'round
And here in the bar
The piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
That stupid old bug
That kills only love
I want to be good
Is that not enough?
So play me the song
That makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
Then play me the song
That makes it so tough
Another nail for my heart
I had excuses, those little boy lies
That she computed by watching my eyes
And told me firmly
She couldn't stand it, I'm bad on her heart
She dropped her make-up and I found the bar
Now it concerns me
I've had a bad time
Now love is resigned
I've been such a fool
I've loved and goodbyed
So here in the bar
The piano man's found
Another nail for my heart
And here in the bar
The piano man's found
Another nail for my heart

Dear Doctor
((Danish Version: Kære Doktor (Lars Lilholt Band) - 2008))
Composer(s): Mick Jagger - Keith Richards
First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1968
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
It's sleepin, it's a beatin'
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it
Right there in that jar?
Oh help me, please mama, I'm sick'ning
It's today that's the day of the plunge
Oh the gal I'm to marry
Is a bow-legged sow
I've been soakin' up drink like a sponge
"Don't ya worry, get dressed," cried my mother
As she plied me with bourbon so sour
Pull your socks up, put your suit on
Comb your long hair down,
For you will be wed in the hour
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
I'm sleepin, it's a beatin'
Can't ya please take it out, and preserve it
Right there in that jar?
Oh help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
There's a pain where there once was a heart
It's sleepin, it's a beatin'
Can't ya please tear it out, and preserve it
Right there in that jar?
I was tremblin', as I put on my jacket
It had creases as sharp as a knife
I put the ring in my pocket
But there was a note
And my heart it jumped into my mouth
It read, "Darlin', I'm sorry to hurt you.
But I have no courage to speak to your face
But I'm down in Virginia with your cousin Lou
There be no wedding today"
So help me, please doctor, I'm damaged
You can put back my heart in its hole
Oh mama, I'm cryin'
Tears of relief
And my pulse is now under control

The Morning: Another Morning
The Morning: Another Morning
Composer(s): Ray Thomas
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Balloons flying
Children sighing
What a day to go kite flying
Breezy school
Away from school
Cowboys fighting out a duel
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
Fishes biting
So exciting
Lunchtime sounds so inviting
At the bill
He gets a thrill
Sitting, watching Bobby Quill
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will
Yesterday's dreams
Are tomorrow's sighs
Watch children playing
They seem so wise
Mary Green
Today's a queen
One thousand dollies are her dream
In cotton frocks
And golden locks
Her palace is an orange box
Time seems to stand quite still
In a child's world it always will

Dear Christine
Composer(s): John Woloschuk
Performer(s): Klaatu
'Twas one long year today
I left Bournemouth and you
Adventure, salt and spray
King's service I must do
But dear Christine I hold you dearly
If only you could hear me
I send my love sincerely
In hopes that we're not merely hanging on
At sea there's time for thought
My head was filled with you
With quill in hand I sought
To bridge the endless blue
But dear Christine I hold you dearly
If only you could hear me
I send my love sincerely
In hopes that we're not merely hanging on
On and on
And dear Christine I'm just a man who
Believes in dreams that come true
And if you feel like I do
When I return I'll find you hanging on
