Plenty Of Time
Plenty Of Time
Composer(s): John kander - Fred Ebb
Performer(s): Liza Minnelli
Dear Aunt Alice, why should I marry him?
My heart's young, I keep free!
O, Aunt Alice, there's always time enough
Then she smiles, and took my hand
And she said to me
When I was just a young thing, I can recall
I dreamt of seeing Paris in Fall
And London in the Springtime, oh I'd see it all
I'd see it all some day!
For I had plenty of time, plenty of time
Why should I worry?
Yes, I had plenty of time, plenty of time
What was the hurry?
When I was still a young thing
Oh, love was for fun
Kisses and laughter
Then it was done!
Yes, when the game was over
Swiftly I'd run
Oh, how I'd run away!
For I had plenty of time, plenty of time
Why should I worry?
Yes, I had plenty of time, plenty of time
What was the hurry?
But a world that's right can soon go wrong
And I guess I waited much too long!
For I've never been to Paris or to London im the Spring
And that love I intended to choose
The years just refused to bring!
And now it suddenly seems
That I've run out of dreams
I can hold on to!
Once I had plenty of time, oh plenty of time
Where has it gone to?
Dear Aunt Alice, I think I'll marry him
All too soon it's all too late!
Yes Aunt Alice, there's never time enough
Let me hold my love today
And let tomorrow wait!

Baby Blue (Badfinger)
Baby Blue
Composer(s): Pete Hamm
First release by: Badfinger - 1971
Covered by multiple other artists
Guess I got what I deserved
Kept you waiting there too long my love
All that time without a word
Didn't know you'd think that I'd forget
Or I'd regret
The special love I have for you
My baby blue
All the days became so long
Did you really think I'd do you wrong?
Dixie, when I let you go
Thought you'd realize that I would know
I would show
The special love I have for you
My baby blue
What can I do, what can I say?
Except I want you by my side
How can I show you, show me a way
Don't you know, I've tried and I've tried?
Guess that's all I have to say
Except the feeling just grows stronger
Every day
Just one thing before I go
Take good care, baby, let me know
Let it grow
The special love you have for me
My Dixie dear

Lazy Afternoon
Lazy Afternoon
Composer(s): John Latouche - Jerome Moross
First performance: Kaye Ballard & Jonathan Lucas - 1954
Covered by multiple other artists
It's a lazy afternoon
And the beetle bugs are zoomin'
And the tulip trees are bloomin'
And there's not another human in view
But us two
It's a lazy afternoon
And the farmer leaves his reapin'
In the meadow cows are sleepin'
And the speckled trout stop leapin' up stream
As we dream
A fat pink cloud hangs over the hill
Unfoldin' like a rose
If you hold my hand and sit real still
You can hear the grass as it grows
It's a hazy afternoon
And I know a place that's quiet, 'cept for daisies running riot
And there's no one passing by it to see
Come spend this lazy afternoon with me

La Musique Que J'aime
La Musique Que J'aime
Composer(s): Johnny Hallyday - Michel Mallory
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Toute la musique que j'aime
Elle vient de là
Elle vient du blues
Les mots ne sont jamais les mêmes
Pour exprimer ce qu'est le bues
J'y mets mes joies, j'y mets mes peines
Et tout ça, ça devient le blues
Je le chante autant que je l'aime
Et je le chanterai toujours
Il y a longtemps sur des guitares
Des mains noires lui donnaient le jour
Pour chanter les peines et les espoirs
Pour chanter Dieu et puis l'amour
La musique vivra
Tant que vivra le blues
Le blues, ça veut dire que je t'aime
Et que j'ai mal à en crever
Je pleure mais je chante quand même
C'est ma prière pour te garder
Toute la musique que j'aime
Elle vient de là
Elle vient du blues
Les mots ne sont jamais les mêmes
Pour exprimer ce qu'est le bues
J'y mets mes joies, j'y mets mes peines
Et tout ça, ça devient le blues
Je le chante autant que je l'aime
Et je le chanterai toujours
Il y a longtemps sur des guitares
Des mains noires lui donnaient le jour
Pour chanter les peines et les espoirs
Pour chanter Dieu et puis l'amour
Le blues, ça veut dire que je t'aime
Et que j'ai mal à en crever
Je pleure mais je chante quand même
C'est ma prière pour te garder
Toute la musique que j'aime
Elle vient de là
Elle vient du blues
Les mots ne sont jamais les mêmes
Pour exprimer ce qu'est le bues

Composer(s): Marcel Amont - Michel Jourdan - G. Gustin
Performer(s): Marcel Amont
La musique est de retour
Quand tu es là et mes deux bras autour
La musique est de retour
La mélodie la maladie d'amour
Tu vas tu viens tu chantes
Tu ris tu sors tu rentres
Tu mets la vie dans la maison
Tu mets la folie tendre
Tu mets partout tes cendres
Et du désordre à ma raison
Toute est simple comme bonjour
Et la musique est de retour
La musique est de retour
Quand tu es là et mes deux bras autour
La musique est de retour
Te re-voilà, baisse un peu l'abat-jour
Y a la radio qui hurle
Y a le café qui brûle
Et du rimmel sur l'oreiller
Par-ci par-là des robes
La baignoire qui déborde
Plein de fou-rire et de bouquets
Tout est simple comme bonjour
Et la musique est de retour
la la la la la......

Música Me Ayuda
Música Me Ayuda
Composer(s): Fabián Gallardo
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Un domingo en una esquina
un tambor que desafina
y unas luces que despiertan la ciudad
Hay un bar, un diario, un loco
una almohada en cada ojo
pero hay algo que me ayuda a despertar
Es la musica que corre en nuestras venas
es un ritmo que contagia y es mejor
porque así no estamos solos
hoy la calle nos alcanza en un grito
que es la música de hoy
Hay un ritmo en cada calle
en el sol de la mañana
en un rio en la oficina o en un bar
no perdamos más el tiempo
no dejemos el momento
ya es de noche y se despierta la ciudad
Es un piano que nos llega desde el norte
un tambór que nos inunda desde el mar
las palabras nacen solas
y la música me ayuda
para que hoy esté cantando
para que estemos cantando
y se escuche para siempre nuestra voz

Performer(s): Caetano Veloso
Você precisa saber da piscina
Da margarina, da Carolina, da gasolina
Você precisa saber de mim
Baby, baby, eu sei que é assim
Baby, baby, eu sei que é assim
Você precisa tomar um sorvete
Na lanchonete, andar com a gente, me ver de perto
Ouvir aquela canção do Roberto
Baby, baby, há quanto tempo
Baby, baby, há quanto tempo
Você precisa aprender inglês
Precisa aprender o que eu sei
E o que eu não sei mais, e o que eu não sei mais
Não sei, comigo vai tudo azul
Contigo vai tudo em paz
Vivemos na melhor cidade da América do Sul, da América do Sul
Você precisa, você precisa
Não sei, leia na minha camisa
Baby, baby, I love you
Baby, baby, I love you

La Música Del Rio De La Plata
La Música Del Rio De La Plata
Composer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto - Fito Páez
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Te siento, no te escucho, donde estas
te escondes en los puertos del sur
en cada luna, en cada esquina en cada madrugada
en conventillos rascacielos en alguna cancha
sos el grito que no existe
pero esta latente hilando su oportunidad
Hay gente a la que el charco le hace mal
se clavan los puñales
por querer tener el ultimo traje europeo
por querer vivir lo de ellos
hace un mes vivieron
gente que vive de espalda
a lo que es su tierra
sus ciudad y su sentir
Candombe en Montevideo
milonga en Buenos Aires
los años te van cambiando
fuelle y tambor
la música del Rio de la Plata
Cantemos en la vereda
que el canto también es fuerza
gastemos nuestras gargantas
para brindar
borrachos de alegria y esperanza
Cantemos hoy que es hora de cantar
no vaya a ser que luego
nos estalle el pecho de tanto sentir el ca
nos asusten las tijeras que andan merod
hoy es tiempo de canto y de mirarnos
para adentro una vez más
Tenemos una gran necesidad
gritar lo que nos quema
cada nota tiene alma, cada alma un cuerpo
ese cuerpo que despierta todas las mañanas
con ganas de recargardas
plenas de caminos ilusión y sensatez
Candombe…
Cantemos …

Babs And Babs
Babs And Babs
Composer(s): Daryl Hall
Performer(s): Daryl Hall
Babs and babs lay dreaming in a four poster bed
Arm in arm, head to head, babs and babs
Babs said, "whatcha thinking?"
She said, "nothing
But I never do ’cause I leave it up to you"
Babs looked out the window
Saw the moon and the sky
She saw the clouds drifting by
Voices crying and sighing and dying but she said nothing
"look out on the lawn, there’s a moon out tonight
There’s a moon out tonight, can’tcha see?"
"silver dreams don’t move me or your talk of the stars
And this isn’t the time or place to make a fool of me
No one wants to hear you when you’re slipping away
And the light of your day always shows up the strength of your vision"
But she said nothing
So babs said "don’t you worry, I’ll take good care of you
You’re lack of feeling’s a rotten thing
But I’ll show you what to do
Girl, you’ve got to get away
Girl, you’ve got to feel, oh, yeah"
Babs said "don’t you patronize me, I’m fine the way I am
At least I know what’s happening
And I know just where I stand
You live alone you die alone
When your dreams all fade away, oh, yeah"
Never compromising, never see eye to eye
So they turn, with a sigh, babs and babs
Have to be together like the night and the day
So they might as well stay the best of friends
Locked in love we leave them with the moon in the sky
With the clouds drifting by
Voices crying and sighing and dying and we say nothing
She said nothing

La Mujer Más Bella Del Mundo
La Mujer Más Bella Del Mundo
Composer(s): Pablo Pinilla
Performer(s): Raphael
Tan difícil como distinguir
Un gato negro en la oscuridad
Tan amargo como confesar
El secreto de una infidelidad
Tan humano como desear
El regalo de un golpe de azar
Tan peligroso como caminar
Por la cornisa de mi propia vanidad
Luchando contra el roce de tu piel
Tratando de no enamorarme
De la mujer más bella del mundo
De la pasión que encierra mi orgullo
Del corazón que late en mi corazón
De la ansiedad que esconde mi soledad
Con el alma rota en un bolsillo
Y la sonrisa de un hombre vacío
Desesperado como un animal
Amenazado en su libertad
Ya es inútil rabiar contra uno mismo
Ni engañarse con mil copas de vino
Cuando el amor que nunca juega limpio
Te derriba como una enfermedad
Luchando contra el roce de tu piel
Tratando de no enamorarme
De la mujer más bella del mundo
De la pasión que encierra mi orgullo
Del corazón que late en mi corazón
De la ansiedad que esconde...
El miedo a ver contigo amanecer
El juego donde se prueba el querer
El cruce del que un beso es una red
Todo el tiempo malgastado
Desde que me enamoré
De la mujer más bella del mundo
De la pasión que encierra mi orgullo
Del corazón que late en mi corazón
De la ansiedad que esconde...

Babooshka
Babooshka
Composer(s): Kate Bush
First release by: Kate Bush - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists
She wanted to test her husband
She knew exactly what to do
A pseudonym, to fool him
She couldn't have made a worse move
She sent him scented letters
And he received them with a strange delight
Just like his wife
But how she was before the tears
And how she was before the years flew by
And how she was when she was beautiful
She signed the letter
"All yours
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"
She wanted to take it further
So she arranged a place to go
To see if he
Would fall for her incognito
And when he laid eyes on her
He got the feeling they had met before
Uncanny how she
Reminds him of his little lady
Capacity to give him all he needs
Just like his wife before she freezed on him
Just like his wife when she was beautiful
He shouted out, "I'm
All yours
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!
All yours
Babooshka, Babooshka, Babooshka-ya-ya!"

Je me souviens j'étais
Le souffle du vent le matin
Et le sable et la terre et leur parfum
Et le bruit du soleil qui connaît son chemin
Et j'étais bien
Je me souviens j'étais
Dans une autre vie j'étais
Un peu de ce monde qui m'entoure
Que j'aime comme une fille aime sa mère d'amour
Et j'étais bien
J'étais
J'étais
J'étais
J'étais
Et j'étais bien
Je me souviens j'étais
L'arbre qui s'ouvre au printemps
La reine des abeilles qui attend
Que lui reviennent les fleuves et leur miel transparent
Et j'étais bien
Je me souviens j'étais
Un autre maillon de la chaîne
Un autre regard mais c'est le même
Une autre façon de savoir dire je t'aime
Et j'étais bien
J'étais
J'étais
J'étais
J'étais
Et j'étais bien

Composer(s): Nick Banks - Jarvis Cocker - Candida Doyle - Steve Mackey - Russell Sr.
Performer(s): Pulp
Well it happened years ago when you lived on Stanhope Road
We listened to your sister when she came home from school
'cos she was two years older and she had boys in her room
We listened outside and heard her
Alright
Well that was alright for a while but soon I wanted more
I want to see as well as hear and so I hid inside her wardrobe
And she came round four and she was with some kid called David
from the garage up the road
I listened outside I heard her
Alright
Oh I want to take you home
I want to give you children
You might be my girlfriend, yeah
When I saw you next day I really couldn't tell
'cos you might go and tell your mother
And so you went with Neve and Neve was coming on
And I thought I heard you laughing when his Mum and Dad were gone
I listened outside, I heard you
Alright
Oh I want to take you home ...
Well I guess it couldn't last too long
I came home one day and all her things were gone, I fell asleep inside
I never heard her come
And then she opened up her wardrobe and I had to get it on
Oh, listen we were on the bed when you came home
I heard you stop outside the door
I know you won't believe it's true
I only went with her 'cos she looks like you
Oh I want to take you home ...

Lamas Fayre
Lamas Fayre
Composer(s): Chris Difford
Performer(s): Chris Difford
We caught the ferry from Stranraer to Larne
over the great waves out under the stars
to sleep in a cabin and look for the shore
at six in the morning when I was a boy
mother would lead me and take me in her hand
combing my parting while back on dry land
we caught the showers that fell on the beech
sunshine we dreamt of was so out of reach
on Irish mountains the coaches would climb
we¹d write out postcards as the drivers unwind
and mother was drinking with her friends at the bar
and I¹d run them around but I wouldn¹t go far
We caught the Ocean that flew on the wind
we sat together and we let the day in
she prayed in her silence for all who she knew
this beautiful landscape was all for my view
and mother would take me to see Lamas Fair
gypsies would see me and they¹d play with my hair
I heard my fortune told so simply there
The rain was falling on the heather and gorse
I had my ice cream with the chocolate sauce
father was frowning a bag on his back
the happier he got the more that he drank
fiddles were playing in the opposite bar
I had my crisps and lemonade in the car
down to the causeway where giants once roamed
id chase the crabs just before they got stoned
my father my mother my brothers and me
so young and simple in my memory

La Mort D'Ophélie
La Mort D'Ophélie
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Un saule penché sur le ruisseau
Pleure dans le cristal des eaux
Ses feuilles blanches
Ophélie tressant des guirlandes
Vient présenter comme une offrande
Des fleurs, des branches
Pour caresser ses boutons d'or
Pour respirer son jeune corps
Le saule se penche
Mais sous elle un rameau se brise
Le saule en pleurs la retient prise
De part sa manche
Ophélie lui dit "qu'il est bon"
Quand le ruisseau dans un frisson
Casse la branche
Ophélie file au fil de l'eau
Qui vient gonfler son blanc manteau
Contre ses hanches
Son cri s'éteint comme une joie
La boue immonde où elle se noie
Prend sa revanche
Un saule penché sur le ruisseau
Pleure dans le cristal des eaux
Ses feuilles blanches
