Baby Blue (The Echoes)


Baby Blue Composer(s): Danny Gulino - Valerian F. Lagueux Performer(s): The Echoes



B-b-a-b-y, b-b-l-u-e
B-b-a-b-y, b-b-l-u-e

You're my Baby Blue (baby blue)
That's what I call you
You know what to do (what to do)
With those eyes of blue
Ba-a-a-a-by blu-u-ue
I-I-I love yo-ou-ou, I do
(b-b-a-b-y, b-b-l-u-e)

Are you really wise? (really wise)
Do you realize
That those devil eyes (devil eyes)
Are bluer than the skies?
Ba-a-a-a-by blu-u-ue
I-I-I love yo-ou-ou, I do
(b-b-a-b-y, Baby Blue, ooh, ohh)

I don't call you "Honey" even though you're sweet
It's really not the name for you-ou-ou
Sweetheart, angel, lover, all are incomplete
Only one name will do-ooh-ooh-ooh

So I'm tellin' you (tellin' you)
Though you're seventeen
You will always be (always be)
Baby Blue to me
Ba-a-a-a-by blu-u-ue
I-I-I love yo-ou-ou, I do
(b-b-a-b-y, b-b-l-u-e)

(b-b-a-b-y, b-b-l-u-e)

La Navidad De Luis


La Navidad De Luis
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco; Mercedes Sosa; Jorge "El Rojo" Rojas



Toma Luis mañana es Navidad
Un pan dulce y un poco de vino
Ya que no puedes comprar

Toma Luis llevalo a tu casa
y podras junto con tu padre
la navidad festejar

Mañana no vengas a trabajar
que el pueblo estara de fiesta
y no habra tristezas . . .

Señora gracias por lo que me da
pero yo no puedo esto llevar
porque mi vida no es de navidad

Señora cree que mi pobreza
llegara al final comiendo pan
en el dia de Navidad

Mi padre me dara algo mejor
me dira que Jesus es como yo
y entonces asi podre seguir

Viviendo, viviendo
Viviendo, viviendo
Viviendo, viviendo

Baby Blue (Nat King Cole)


Baby Blue Composer(s): Carone - Salem Performer(s): Nat King Cole



Baby blue so all alone and blue
Baby blue what has he done to you
Did he promise you the moon above and the stars that shine
Did he whisper tender words of love laughing all the time
So all though he broke your heart in two
I'll be here with open arms for you
I've been waiting for this day to come
Forever loving kisses from you baby blue
I've been waiting for this day to come
Forever loving kisses from you baby blue

La Nana


La Nana
Composer(s): Joe Dassin - Pierre Delanoë
Performer(s): Joe Dassin



Viens si ça te tente, ma nana
Faire un tour sur ma moto
Vers les 150, tu verras
On est bien tout contre mon dos

Viens que je t'enlève, ma nana
Sur mes 100 chevaux à la fois
Prends ton plus beau casque
Pends toi à mes basques
On s'embrasse et on s'en va

Mon Dieu que j'aime ça
Que tu sois ma nana
Le temps n'existe pas
Quand il passe dans tes bras
Le soleil de ma vie
Mon amour, ma nana
Prenez moi n'importe quoi
Mais pas ma nana

Faudrait qu'on s'arrête, ma nana
Faut qu'on se regarde mieux
On pourrait peut-être,pourquoi pas
Se reposer un peu tous tous les deux

Avec toi je plane ma nana
Mon plus beau voyage c'est toi
Rien ne peut me faire revenir sur Terre
Tant que tu voles avec moi

{2x:}
Mon Dieu que j'aime ça
Que tu sois ma nana
Le temps n'existe pas
Quand il passe dans tes bras
Le soleil de ma vie
Mon amour, ma nana
Prenez moi n'importe quoi
Mais pas ma nana

Baby Blue (George Strait)


Baby Blue Composer(s): Aaron Barker Performer(s): George Strait




She looked so much like a lady, but she was so much like a child
A devil when she held me close, an angel when she smiled
She always held it deep inside, but somehow I always knew
She's go away when the grass turned green
And the sky turned baby blue

And baby blue was the color of her eyes
Baby blue like the Colorado skies
Like a breath of spring, she came and left
And I still don't know why
So here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight

She brought colors to my life that my eyes had never touched
And when she taught me how to care, I never cared so much
I try not to think of her, but I fall asleep and do
And drift off where the grass is green and the sky is baby blue

And baby blue was the color of her eyes
Baby blue like the Colorado skies
Like a breath of spring, she came and left
And I still don't know why
So here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight

And baby blue was the color of her eyes
Baby blue like the Colorado skies
Like a breath of spring, she came and left
And I still don't know why
So here's to you and whoever holds my baby blue tonight

Our Sergeant Major


Our Sergeant Major
Composer(s): Harry Gifford - Fred Cliffe - George Formby
Performer(s): George Formby



Now there's a sergeant major
Enjoys life while he can
He proves to all the ladies
He's a soldier and a man!

He sticks out his chest
Two pillows in his vest
A bolster under
His rotunda
Our sergeant major!

His medals break our hearts
He won them playing darts!
And while competing
Who was cheating?
Our sergeant major!

He's far away the worst friend we've ever had
When he's far away, well, we're mighty glad!

In the canteen bar
You know what sergeants are!
When we've passed out
Who's the last out?
Our sergeant major!

He's got a raucous voice
His language isn't choice!
In clink we'd shove him
how we love him
Our sergeant major!

His weight about he'll throw
The wicked so and so!
Who'd even smother
His own mother?
Our sergeant major!

He's far away the worst friend we've ever had
When he's far away, well, we're mighty glad!

Our bugler goes his rounds
And when the bugle sounds
For everlastin'!
Who's he blastin'?
Our sergeant major!

Now he makes raw recruits
Just tremble in their boots
He calls 'em slackers!
Who's gone crackers?
Our sergeant major!

His feet fill up the road
Knock-kneed and pigeon-toed
We'd sooner shoot him
Than salute him
Our sergeant major!

He's far away the worst friend we've ever had
When he's far away, well, we're mighty glad!

The mascot goat we own
Though big and fat has grown
Wild and warlike
It's far more like
Our sergeant major!

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!

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?

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

La Musique Est De Retour


La Musique Est De Retour
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

Baby Composer(s): Caetano Veloso 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...
