La Solitude
La Solitude
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Moi je n'ai plus rien à te donner
Mon cœur est une ville abandonnée
Mes yeux sont secs d'avoir trop pleuré
Laisse moi tu ne peux pas m'aider
Un désert ne donne rien
Que des pierres et du chagrin
La solitude est un grand pays
J'y vivrai le reste de ma vie
Et quand la neige de cet hiver
Recouvrira les arbres et la terre
Je m'enfermerai dans mon chagrin
Tout seul avec mon chien
Son image me poursuit
Au bout des jours et des nuits
La solitude est un grand pays
J'y vivrai le reste de ma vie
La solitude est un grand pays
J'y vivrai le reste de ma vie
Va-t'en, va-t'en sans te retourner
Toute ma vie n'est que du passé
L'arbre mort ne donne rien
Que son ombre et du chagrin
La solitude est un grand pays
J'y vivrai le reste de ma vie ...

Back On The Road
Back On The Road
Composer(s): Al McKay - Davitt Sigerson - Eddie Money - Maurice White
Performer(s): Earth, Wind & Fire; Eddie Money
Time to get back on the road
Gonna leave these troubles behind
Time to carry the load
what my life is a true design
You won't reach me by phone
I'll be moving round between the line
Time to get back on the road
Gonna mend this heart of mine
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
Baby, baby, carry on
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
'Cause baby, you're not alone
The love that we shared was grand
but not enough to keep me still
I hope someday you understand
Music gives my heart, a thrill
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
Baby, baby, carry on
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
'Cause, baby, you're not alone
Since the day that my life began
A band has been my true life plan
Time to get back on the road
Feel the music, take the stand
You are my true love
Still there will be no one, to take your place
This feeling, I can't erase
Got to move and have my space
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
Baby, baby, carry on
Don't you cry, when I say goodbye
'Cause, baby, you're not alone

La Sitiera
La Sitiera
Composer(s): Rafael Lopez
Performer(s): Omara Portuondo
Sitiera mia
dime que has hecho
de nuestro dulce hogar
Reina que un dia
fue la alegria
de todo aquel sitial
Lagrimas vierte
la sitieria
que tiende a desolar
y es por no verte
reina que un dia
fuiste de aquel lugar
Ya el jilguero se alejo
de aquel frondoso algarrobo
y hasta la mata de jobo
nos da muestras de dolor
La sitiera se ha marchado
y yo enamorado
lloro por su amor
y es para la sitieria
cual si fuela un dia
que le falta el sol
Ven sitiera por favor
ven conmigo a mi retiro
y gozaremos de amor
al son del y el guiro

I'm back on th' corner
I'm right back on th' corner
I've been in this condition so many times before

I'm right back by my lonesome
Just watching th' people going from door to door
I've got to change my ways
And try to quit this place
'Cause one of these rainy days
I'm gonna need a friendly face
I'm back on th' corner
I'm right back on th' corner
I've been in this condition so many times before
I've got to change my ways
And try to quit this place
'Cause one of these rainy days
I'm gonna be a mental case

La Sexta En Re
La Sexta En Re
Performer(s): Horacio Guarany
Lluvia de sol, moja el rosal
prisionero agosto de los años
sólo de luz, iba mi andar
esperando el grito de tu mano
Tu guitarrear, la sexta en re
y el dolido acorde disonante
vuelve a traer aquel querer
y el lejano tiempo del amante
Como la lluvia fué tu querer tu querer
tu querer perdido sólo quedó el rosal
el rosal, el rosal herido
sólo quedé sin una flor sólo, sólo, sólo...
Grito del mar, salándome
la atrevida noche del verano
muerte del sol, sobre los dos
y tu mano presa entre mis manos
Vuelve otra vez, vuelve a llorar
con tu larga lluvia de ojos claros
quiero escuchar, tu sexta en re
fiel con mi guitarra junto al faro
Como la lluvia fué tu querer tu querer
tu querer perdido sólo quedó el rosal
el rosal, el rosal herido
sólo quedé sin una flor sólo, sólo, sólo...

Back On The Chain Gang
Back On The Chain Gang
Composer(s): Chrissie Hynde
First release by: The Pretenders - 1984
I found a picture of you, oh
What hijacked my world that night
To a place in the past
We've been cast out of, oh
Now we're back in the fight
We're back on the train yeah (ooh, ah)
Oh
A circumstance beyond our control, oh
The phone, TV and the news of the world
Got in the house like a pigeon from Hell, oh
Threw sand in your eyes and descended like flies
Put us back on the train yeah (ooh, ah)
Oh, back on the chain gang
The powers that be
That force us to live like we do
Bring me to my knees
When I see what they've done to you
But I'll die as I stand her today
Knowing that deep in my heart
They'll fall to ruin one day
For making us apart
I found a picture of you, oh
Those were the happiest days of my life
Now we're back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang
Like a break in the battle was your part, oh
In the wretched life of a lonely heart
Now we're back on the train
Oh, back on the chain gang

La Seule Fille Que J'aime
La Seule Fille Que J'aime
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Je me demande si j'aurais pu
Vivre sans toi une heure de plus
Sans te connaître je t'aurais reconnue
Au bout du monde ou bien dans ma rue
Tu étais comme je t'imaginais
Les yeux les cheveux dont je rêvais
Tu a mis le ciel dans ma maison
Et puis du soleil dans mes chansons
Tu as tout rangé tu as tout changé
Tu as réussi à m'apprivoiser
Tu m'a fais l'amour avec tant d'amour
Tout au long des nuits et tout au long de jours
Aujourd'hui je peux bien te l'avouer
Malgré nos folies et nos guerres et nos paix
Malgré la vie tu es toujours sans problèmes
La seule fille que j'aime
Tu as mis beaucoup d'eau dans mon vin
Mon chien est devenu ton copain
Il m'arrive de te regarder dormir
Pour te voler la nuit un sourire
Tu ris de tout un rien te fais pleurer
Tu es si fragile j'ai peur de te blesser
Tu as mis du bleu dans ma maison
Et puis de l'amour dans mes chansons
Oui, tu es une femme autant qu'une enfant
Et tu as besoin de moi tout le temps
Tu m'a fais l'amour avec tant d'amour
Tout au long des nuits et tout au long de jours
Oui, je suis sûr que rien ne nous fera changer
Aujourd'hui je peux bien te l'avouer
Malgré nos envies et tout ce que j'ai fais
Malgré nos folies et nos guerres et nos paix
Malgré la vie tu es toujours sans problèmes
La seule fille que j'aime

Back On My Mind Again
Back On My Mind Again
Composer(s): Conrad Pierce - Charles Quillen
Performer(s): Ronnie Milsap; Floyd Cramer
I took some time
To clear my mind
To give my mind a change of atmosphere
I had some fun
Lying in the sun
Daytone is nice this time of year
I saw lovers hand in hand
Building castles in the sand
And doing all the things we did back then
But just when I think
I'm through lovin you
You're back on my mind again
Back on my mind
Time after time
I wonder if this heart will ever mend
Cuz just when I think
I'm through lovin you
You're back on my mind again
I came out of my shell
Really doing well
I met someone who thinks the world of me
She talks of things
And whispers loving things
She's everything you'd want a girl to be
But when she holds me tight
The feeling isn't right
It seems as though I'm never gonna win
Cuz just when I think
I'm through lovin you
You're back on my mind again
Back on my mind
Time after time
I wonder if this heart will ever mend
Cuz just when I think
I'm through lovin you
You're back on my mind again
Back on my mind
Time after time
I wonder if this heart will ever mend
Cuz just when I think
I'm through lovin you
You're back on my mind again

La Serie Dei Numeri
La Serie Dei Numeri
Composer(s): Angelo Branduardi
Performer(s): Angelo Branduardi
E tu bel bimbo, bimbo mio dolce
dimmi, cosa vuoi che io ti canti?
Cantami dei numeri la serie
sino a che io oggi non la impari
Unica è la morte, niente altro, niente più...
due i buoi legati al carro
e sono tre le parti del mondo
quattro le pietre di Merlino
che affilano le spade degli eroi
Unica è la morte, niente altro, niente più...
E sul cammino che il tempo fa
cinque finora sono le età, e sono sei le erbe che
nel calderone il nano mescolerà...
Sette sono i soli, sette le lune
otto sono i fuochi accesi a Maggio
attorno alla fontana sono nove
le fanciulle che danzano alla luna...
Unica è la morte, niente altro, niente più...
E dieci vascelli sono venuti
portandoci la guerra da lontano
Undici guerrieri sono tornati
quand'erano in trecento a partire...
Unica è la morte, niente altro, niente più...
E sul cammino che il tempo fa
cinque finora sono le età
e sono dodici i mesi che
giorno per giorno, da sempre segnando va
E dodici ancora sono i segni
che tu puoi leggere nel cielo
guerra tra di loro han dichiarato
questa che ti canto sarà la fine
Unica è la morte, niente altro, niente più...
Allora la tromba suonerà
avremo fuoco e tuono, pioggia e vento
la serie dei numeri è finita
per l'uno sai che non c'è serie
Unica è la morte, e due i buoi
e tre la parti, quattro le pietre
cinque le età e sei le erbe
sette sono i soli, sette le lune
otto sono i fuochi e nove le fanciulle
ma dieci i vascelli, undici i guerrieri
dodici i segni, dodici i mesi
e unica la morte, da sempre madre del dolore

Back On My Feet Again
Back On My Feet Again
Composer(s): Randy Newman
Performer(s): Randy Newman
Doctor let me tell you something about myself
I'm a college man and I'm very wealthy
I've got no time to trifle with trash like you
'Cause I must be 'bout my business
My brother's a machinist in a textile mill
And he makes more money than you ever will
He just got married to a Polish girl
With a space between her teeth
My sister's a dancer up in Baltimore
At a small cafe on Main
But she ran off with a Negro from the Eastern Shore
Dr., she didn't even know his name
Get me back on my feet again
Back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again
He took her down to Mobile in a railroad train
He said, "Driver, take me to the Hotel Paree"
He went into the washroom
Washed his face and hands
Dr., when he come out he was white as you and me
He said, "Girl, I'm not a Negro I'm a millionaire
As you can plainly see
So many women love my money
But you have proved that you love only me
"I'm going to teach you to play polo and how to water ski
And you won't have to dance no more
And I no longer must pretend to be
A Negro from the Eastern Shore"
Doctor, doctor, what you say
How 'bout letting me out today?
Ain't no reason for me to stay
Everybody's so far away
Get me back on my feet again
Back on my feet again
Open the door and set me free
Get me back on my feet again

Performer(s): Andrea Bocelli
and multiple other artists
Vola, o serenata: La mia diletta è sola
e, con la bella testa abbandonata
posa tra le lenzuola
O serenata, vola
O serenata, vola
Splende pura la luna
l'ale il silenzio stende
e dietro I veni dell'alcova
bruna la lampada s'accende
Pure la luna splende
Pure la luna splende
Vola, o serenata
Vola, o serenata, vola
Ah! là
Ah! là
Vola, o serenata: La mia diletta è sola
ma sorridendo ancor mezzo assonnata
torna fra le lenzuola
O serenata, vola
O serenata, vola
L'onda sogna su `l lido
e `l vento su la fronda
e a' baci miei ricusa ancore un nido
la mia signora bionda
Sogna su `l lido l'onda
Sogna su `l lido l'onda
Vola, o serenata
Vola, o serenata, vola
Ah! là
Ah! là

Back On Line
Back On Line
Composer(s): Jon Farriss - Michael Hutchence
Performer(s): INXS
Maybe there's something in me
Trying to hitch another ride
Have you ever felt this moment
When you're looking out of control
All the ways I could have taken
Just add up to indecision
I'm gonna get this back on line
To me there's no reason why
All my troubles soon be leaving
Wash away the pain of mine
Get me to the place I'm standing
There's a reason down below
Maybe there is something in me
Trying to take another ride
Have you ever felt the moment
When you're losing all control
All my troubles soon be leaving
Mine

La Seine
La Seine
Composer(s): F. Monod - G. Lafarge
Performer(s): Anny Gould
and multiple other artists
La Seine est aventureuse
De Châtillon à Méry
Et son humeur voyageuse
Flâne à travers le pays ...
Elle se fait langoureuse
De Juvisy à Choisy
Pour aborder, l'âme heureuse
L'amoureux qu'elle a choisi!
Elle roucoule, coule, coule
Dès qu'elle entre dans Paris!
Elle s'enroule, roule, roule
Autour de ses quais fleuris!
Elle chante, chante, chante, chante
Chant' le jour et la nuit
Car la Seine est une amante
Et son amant c'est Paris!
Elle traîne d'île en île
Caressant le Vieux Paris
Elle ouvre ses bras dociles
Au sourire du roi Henri...
Indifférente aux édiles
De la mairie de Paris
Elle court vers les idylles
Des amants des Tuileries!
Elle roucoule, coule, coule
Du Pont-Neuf jusqu'à Passy!
Elle est soûle, soûle, soûle
Au souvenir de Bercy!
Elle chante, chante, chante, chante
Chant' le jour et la nuit...
Si sa marche est zigzagante
C'est qu'elle est grise à Paris!
Mais la Seine est paresseuse
En passant près de Neuilly
Ah ! comme elles est malheureuse
De quitter son bel ami!
Dans un étreinte amoureuse
Elle enlace encore Paris
Pour lui laisser, généreuse
Une boucle ... à Saint-Denis!
Elle roucoule, coule, coule
Sa complainte dans la nuit...
Elle roule, roule, roule
Vers la mer où tout finit...
Elle chante, chante, chante, chante
Chant' l'amour de Paris!
Car la Seine est une amante
Et Paris dort dans son lit!

Covered by multiple other artists
Go! Back off boogaloo
I said, back off boogaloo
I said, back off boogaloo
Back of boogaloo, what ya think I'm gonna do?
I got a flash right from the start
Wake up, meat head, don't pretend that you are dead, get yourself up off the cart
Get yourself together now and give me something tasty
Everything you try to do, you know it sure sounds wasted
Back off boogaloo, I said, back off boogaloo
You think you're a groove, standing there in your wallpaper shoes and your socks that match your eyes
Back off boogaloo, I said, back off boogaloo, come on, back off boogaloo
Get yourself together now and give me something tasty
Everything you try to do, you know it sure sounds wasted
Back off boogaloo, what ya think I'm gonna do? I got a flash right from the start
Back off boogaloo, I said, back off boogaloo, come on, back off boogaloo

La Saudade
La Saudade
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Tu pars pour quelques heures et le monde est vide
Le temps suspend son vol et se teinte d'ennui
Le silence me noie et mon coeur prend des rides
Et la pendule au mur tictaque au ralenti
Je me sens tout à coup comme un enfant malade
Un enfant déchiré de parents divorcés
Envahi par un mal appelé la saudade
Saudade de nois dois saudade de vocé
La saudade est une maladie du coeur
La saudade c'est un mal sourd, une langueur
La saudade, la saudade
C'est pour l'amitié de l'amour
Comme un besoin
Lorsque quelqu'un
Crie au secours
La saudade elle m'oppresse nuit et jour
La saudade lorsque je suis à bout d'amour
La saudade, la saudade
Plantée au coeur des amoureux
C'est inquiétant, c'est merveilleux
La saudade
Chaque instant qui s'écoule attise mes angoisses
Fébrile et pétrifiée ma vie guette ton pas
Et je meurs un peu plus à chaque heure qui passe
Et si pour une fois tu ne revenais pas
Mon coeur, mon pauvre coeur alors bat la chamade
S'inquiète, tu me manques et mêlées à tout ça
Tristesse et nostalgie deviennent la saudade
La sudade de nous, la saudade de toi
La saudade est une maladie du coeur
La saudade c'est un mal sourd, une langueur
La saudade, la saudade
C'est pour l'amitié de l'amour
Comme un besoin
Lorsque quelqu'un
Crie au secours
La saudade elle m'obsède nuit et jour
La saudade lorsque je suis à bout d'amour
La saudade, la saudade
Plantée au coeur des amoureux
C'est inquiétant, c'est merveilleux
La saudade, la saudade, la saudade

Back 'N Blue
Composer(s): Robert A. Johnson - Rick Nielsen - Taylor Rhodes - Robin Zander
Performer(s): Cheap Trick
Every night
Caught up on the same old dream
I hear your broken heart
Crumbling down and haunting me
And everyday
Try to tell myself it
ain't so hard
But then I hear your name
And it feels like a grip
around my heart
'Till I change the way you feel
'Till I change the world
So help me girl
I'll show you wounds can heal
Chorus
* Tell 'ya what I'm gonna do
I'll be comin' back for you
I'll move the mountains
Part the sea
Anything for you
I'll be back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Forget that girl
She could never take your place
It's hard enough
When you look at me that way
I know I was caught red-handed
I wouldn't blame you if
you twist the knife
I swear I've come to my senses
Tell me what to do
Anyday I'll make it right
I've got to change
the way you feel
If I have to I'll
change the world
So help me girl
I'll beg borrow and steal
If that's what it takes
* Repeat
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
At 't-till make you believe me
I'm prepared to make
any sacrifice
The shadow of our love
keeps gettin' bigger
Without your love I'll sure die
Chorus
Tell you what I'm gonna do
I keep comin' back for you
I'll move the mountains
Part the sea
Anything for you
I'll be back 'n blue back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
So help me girl
Beg borrow and steal
If that's what it takes
I'll be back 'n blue back 'n blue
I'm prepared to make
any sacrifice
Back 'n blue
Back 'n blue
So help me girl
