Let The Feeling Flow
Let The Feeling Flow
Composer(s): Peabo Bryson
Performer(s): Peabo Bryson; Kelli Sae; Matt Jordan
Falling in love, it was easy at the start
I thought I had it in my hands
Something went wrong, somewhere we lost a part
It was more than we could stand, yeah
It was too late when I realized
That I couldn't see the forest for the trees
What was wrong with me
There comes a time in every life
Love will come your way
And if it should stay
You'd better hold on to it tight
And never let it go, not love
It's a shining star that's here to guide you
Every lover knows
You've got to hold on to the good inside you
Let the feeling flow
And I'm sure love will grow
Falling in love, was so easy at the start
I thought I had it here in my hands, here in my hands
Something went wrong, somewhere I lost a part
More than I could stand, yeah
It was too late when I realized
That I couldn't see the forest for the trees
Something's wrong with me (Here with me)
There comes a time in every life
Love will come your way
And if it should stay
You'd better hold on to it tight
And never let it go (Let the feeling flow), not love
It's a shining star that's here to guide you (Every lover)
Every lover knows
You've got to hold on (Hold on) to the feeling inside you (Feeling inside you)
Let the feeling flow
And I'm sure love will grow
Yeah, yeah
Let the feeling flow (Hold on)
Let it flow (Whoa...oh...oh...)
Let it flow (Yeah)
You've got, got to let (Feeling inside you)
Let it flow

Let The Children Speak ((aka Theme For Great Cities (instrumental) (by Simple Minds) - 1981))
Composer(s): Charlie Burchill - Jim Kerr - Derek Forbes - Mick McNeil - Brian McGee
Performer(s): Simple Minds - 1991
Time - way out of line
A whole nation waits outside
The rhythm of tomorrow
They can dance away their sorrows tonight
Lost - broken and scarred
Prisoner waits outside with his lone heart beating
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
Let the children - let the children speak
Aims - dangerous games
Their mother says one false move and we all get hurt
I feel this sense of power I feel it every hour tonight
Let's not get lazy tonight
Things could get crazy cos
One more kick and the door cracks open
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children
Power to the powerless strength unto the weak
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
I'm begging you now Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children
Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
Let's not get lazy tonight
Things could get crazy cos
One last kick and the door cracks open
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
Things could get crazy tonight
Let's not get lazy cos
One last kick and the door cracks open
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children speak
I'm begging you now
Let the children, let the children
Let the children, let the children
Power to the powerless, strength unto the weak
Let the children, let the children

The language of this world
Let's not get lazy cos

Let the children, let the children

When evening falls so hard
I will comfort you
I'll take your part when darkness falls

Let The Boy Rock And Roll
Let The Boy Rock And Roll
Composer(s): John Sebastian
First release by: The Lovin' Spoonful - 1966
I heard Mama and Papa talkin' last night
And I heard Mama say to Papa: Let that boy rock and roll
The neighbor not complainin' and the schoolboy talked twice today
You know they think you're foolish, study or slippin' away
He don't think about nothin' 'cept the rock and roll records that
play
I say it's all right, Pa, let the boy rock and roll
He's got a mind of his own and you know he's got a musical soul
And he's gotta play music and you know we really can't say no
So Daddy, don't you worry 'bout this crazy man
Go on and do what you think you should
But Daddy, don't you call him Little Boy Bad
When you know he could be Johnny B Good
I say it's all right, Pa, let the boy sing his song
In his brand new boots, he needs a foot from a kick in the town
If his music is groovy, you know he really can't go wrong
So Daddy, don't you worry 'bout this crazy man
Go on and do what you think you should
But please don't call him Little Boy Bad
When you know he could be Johnny B Good
I say it's all right, Pa, let the boy rock and roll
He's got a mind of his own and you know he's got a musical soul
If the music is groovy, you know we really can't say no

Who sang a song so very soft and tenderly
He met a little girl with a flower in her hair

Let 'em ring out with joy
Let 'em send send their love
Yes to every girl and boy
Oh, let the bells keep ringing
Let 'em ring out with joy
Let 'em send send out their happy love (happy love)

Down to the sands near a moonlit bay
They talked and they talked till there was lovelight in their eyes
Then they kissed until the morning sun did rise

And that little girl, oh yes, she is my loving wife
And our little house where we now stay
Sits in the middle of our little moonlit bay

Let 'em ring out with joy

Tell me that old love story
But not the same old lies
You know my heart is waiting for you dear
Here on the bridge of sighs
Tell me again you love me
And gaze into my eyes
I'm yours tonight, so why keep me waiting
Here on the bridge of sighs
How many times we pledged our love anew
When little quarrels came our way
I know the reason why I'm missing you
My love of happy yesterday
Tell me you're mine forever
Mine just to idolise
Take me away, stop breaking my heart dear

My love of happy yesterday
Tell me you're mine forever

Take me away, stop breaking my heart dear

Let That Be A Lesson To You

Oh, Columbus was the discoverer of America
And he sailed the sea in 1492
But the good Queen Isabella
Found a more attractive fella
And Columbus wound up in the junkeroo

He wasn't too big to end up behind the eight ball
And remember buddy there's still lots of room for you

Brian's Song
Brian's Song
Composer(s): Alan Bergman; Marilyn Bergman; Michel Legrand
Originally performed by: Michel Legrand
Covered by various other artists
If the hands of time
Were hands that I could hold
I'd keep them warm and in my hands
They'd not turn cold
Hand in hand we'd choose
The moments that should last
The lovely moments that should have
No future and no past
The summer from the top of a swing
The comfort in the sound of a lullaby
The innocence of leaves in the spring
But most of all the moment when love first touched me
All the happy days
Would never learn to fly
Until the hands of time would choose
To wave "Good-bye"

Brev Från Kolonien
Brev Från Kolonien
Composer(s): Amilcare Ponchielli; Cornelis Vreeswijk
Performer(s): Cornelis Vreeswijk
Hejsan morsan, hejsan stabben!
Här e brev från älsklingsgrabben
Vi har kul på kolonien
vi bor tjugoåtta gangstergrabbar i en
stor barack med massa sängar
Kan ni skicka mera pengar?
För det vore en god gärning
jag har spelat bort varenda dugg på tärning
Här e roligt vill jag lova
fastän lite svårt att sova
Killen som har sängen över mej
han vaknar inte han när han behöver, nej!
Jag har tappat två framtänder
för jag skulle gå på händer
när vi lattjade charader
så när morsan nu får se mej får hon spader
Uti skogen finns baciller
men min kompis han har piller
som han köpt utav en ful typ
och om man äter dom blir man en jättekul typ
Föreståndarn han har farit
han blir aldrig vad han varit
för polisen kom och tog hand
om honom förra veckan när vi lekte skogsbrand
Uti skogen finns det rådjur
i baracken finns det smådjur
och min bäste kompis Tage
han har en liten fickkniv inuti sin mage
Honom ska dom operera
Ja, nu vet jag inget mera
Kram och kyss och hjärtligt tack sen
men nu ska vi ut och bränna grannbaracken!

Brejo Da Cruz
Composer(s): Chico Buarque
Performer(s): Chico Buarque
and various other artists
A novidade
Que tem no Brejo da Cruz
É a criançada
Se alimentar de luz
Alucinados
Meninos ficando azuis
E desencarnando
Lá no Brejo da Cruz
Eletrizados
Cruzam os céus do Brasil
Na rodoviária
Assumem formas mil
Uns vendem fumo
Tem uns que viram Jesus
Muito sanfoneiro
Cego tocando blues
Uns têm saudade
E dançam maracatus
Uns atiram pedra
Outros passeiam nus
Mas há milhões desses seres
QUe se disfarçam tão bem
Que ninguém pergunta
De onde essa gente vem
São jardineiros
Guardas noturnos, casais
São passageiros
Bombeiros e babás
Já nem se lembram
Que existe um Brejo da Cruz
Que eram crianças
E que comiam luz
São faxineiros
Balançam nas construções
São bilheteiras
Baleiros e garçons
Já nem se lembram
Que existe um Brejo da Cruz
Que eram crianças
E que comiam luz

Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Al Jolson
and multiple other artists
What care I who makes the laws of a nation
Let those who will take care of its rights and wrongs
What care I who care for the world's affairs
As long as I can sing its popular songs
Let me sing a funny song
With crazy words that roll along
And if my song can start you laughing
I'm happy, so happy
Let me sing a sad refrain
Of broken hearts that loved in vain
And if my song can start you crying
I'm happy
Let me croon a low down blues
To lift you out of your seat
If my song can reach your shoes
And start you tapping your feet, I'm happy
Let me sing of Dixie's charms
Cotton fields and mammy's arms
And if my song can make you homesick
I'm happy, I'm happy
I don't want a seat on any big council
A ruler's power is not what I'm seeking for
Only let me feel that my songs appeal has reached your hearts
I'll not ask for anything more
Let me sing a funny song
With crazy words that roll along
And if my song can start you laughing
I'm happy, so happy
Let me sing a sad refrain
Of broken hearts that loved in vain
And if my song can start you crying
I'm happy
Let me croon a low down blues
To lift you out of your seat
If my song can reach your shoes
And start you tapping your feet, I'm happy
Let me sing of Dixie's charms
Cotton fields and mammy's arms
And if my song can make you homesick
I'm happy, I'm happy

Breezin' Along With The Breeze
Breezin' Along With The Breeze
Composer(s): Haven Gillespie; Seymour Simons; Richard Whiting
Originally performed by: Josephine Baker
I have been a rover since I was a child
No one to love or care for me
Knocked around all over, kinda grew up wild
My home's wherever I may be
Ain't no someone yearnin', wonderin' where I be
I'm gone, but no one's missin' me
Ain't no light a-burnin' ev'ry night for me
I'm like a bird that's flyin' free
I'm just breezin' along with the breeze
Trailin' the rails, roamin' the seas
Like the birdies that sing in the trees
Pleasin' to live, livin' to please
The sky is the only roof I have over my head
And when I'm weary, Mother Nature makes my bed
I'm just goin' along as I please
Breezin' along with the breeze
