Living At The Canterbury
Living At The Canterbury
Composer(s): Wiedlin
Performer(s): The Go-Go's
Okay living in the city
Whores outside a-posing
Traffic noise a lullaby
Skyscapers better than the blue skies
We can do what we want
We can say what we please
We can be who we want
Being poor's okay by me
Proud I don't have no TV
Living at the Canterbury
(My friends think I'm a fool)
Living at the Canterbury
I guess it's pretty cool
Living at the Canterbury
Fighting off the roaches
Like being in a dormitory
Till rental due approaches
(Don't know where we'll get the cash)
Spent it all on booze
I'm no fool with credit cards
It's better not to think
Sometimes little I like to think!

Media Vuelta
Media Vuelta
Composer(s): José Alfredo Jiménez
Performer(s): Eydie Gorme
and multiple other artists
Te vas porque yo quiero que te vayas
a la hora que yo quiera te detengo
yo sé que mi cariño te hace falta
porque quieras o no yo soy tu dueño
Yo quiero que te vayas por el mundo
y quiero que conozcas mucha gente
yo quiero que te besen otros labios
para que me compares hoy como siempre
Si encuentras un amor que te comprenda
y sientas que te quiere más que nadie
entonces yo daré la media vuelta
y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde
entonces yo daré la media vuelta
y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde
Si encuentras un amor que te comprenda
y sientas que te quiere más que nadie
entonces yo daré la media vuelta
y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde
entonces yo daré la media vuelta
y me iré con el sol cuando muera la tarde
Te vas porque yo quiero que te vayas

Living And Dying
Living And Dying
Composer(s): Klaus Meine - Rudolf Schenker - Rudolph Schenker
Performer(s): Scorpions
In the dirty old city
There is my home
There's my home, there's my home
There is my home
Nothing really looks pretty
And I've been alone
I've been alone, I've been alone
I've been alone
And made my heart
Maybe we should start crying
Living and dying
And made my heart
Maybe we should start crying
Living and dying
In the house of darkness
There's a magic stone
Magic stone, magic stone
The magic stone
But I couldn't find it
'Cause the shine is gone
Shine is gone, shine is gone
The shine is gone
And made my heart
Maybe we should start crying
Living and dying
And made my heart
Maybe we should start crying
Living and dying
Living and dying
Living and dying

Media Luz En Paris
Media Luz En Paris
Composer(s): A. Abonizio; R. Goldin
Performer(s): Juan Carlos Baglietto
Da la media luz en Paris
en Buenos Aires las seis
volando sobre Berlin
el whisky manchado de rouge
Escribo como confesión
te amo y te odio a la vez
cuando bajas del avión
seguro hay una extra de hotel
Pero las noches que paso sin vos
me toco el cuerpo y recuerdo
me rio de las cosas que hago
cuando estoy solo
las noches que paso sin voz
me toco el cuerpo y recuerdo
me rio de las cosas que hago
cuando estoy solo
Quisiera poder clausurar
los cielos con un murallon
y que te licues en mi
flotando en el paladar
Hay tanta verdad sin amor
mareo al subir y bajar
la pista tu respiracion
turbinas que dan la señal

Living All Alone
Living All Alone
Composer(s): Cynthia Biggs - Kenny Gamble - Thom Bell
Performer(s): Phyllis Hyman
There used to be time in my life when we were lovers
And we shared this apartment together just us two
I think of how we planned to get married
Saying "Love how I used to know you well"
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
Oh No No No Whoa
Now I love what's in my life and I find it's a mellow world
I'm not even the same I'm a different girl
Yesterday I was somebody's baby
Now today I'm a woman on my own
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
It feels good to have somebody hold you tight
It feels good to have somebody love you right
Who would end all my long and lonely nights?
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all alone
Whoa Oh I can't stand this living all, oouuu all alone
Oh, I don't want to be alone
Oh weeee aaaaaa
Oh I don't want to be alone
We used to be such lovers
We used to care for one another
Aaaaaaaa aaaa aaaa aaaa
I don't want to be, I don't want to be alone
No no, No no
No Oooooooooo No
I don't want to be alone
No No No
Need ya, Love ya
Come back to me oooohhhh
I love you
Oh please, please come back to me baby
Ooooouuu Yeah
I can't stand to be alone
I can't stand it
Don't want to be alone

Medallita De La Suerte
Medallita De La Suerte
Composer(s): M. Batistella; Carlos Gardel; Jose Razzano
Performer(s): Carlos Gardel
Muchas glorias me dio el mundo
al brindarme sus ofrendas
son tantas, que las confundo
aflojándoles las riendas
Gran poder es el dinero
mas de todas esas prendas
es a vos a quien más quiero
Medallita de la suerte
que te llevo desde niño
es tan grande mi cariño
como el miedo de perderte
Yo nací para quererte
porque junto a mi cunita
te bendijo mi viejita
con el llanto de su amor
Fuiste para mí canción de cuna
en mis noches, blanca luna
flor del aire en mi camino
esperanza en mi destino
y serás en mi partida
la canción de despedida
cuando a todos diga adiós
¡Nunca yo podré olvidar
que fuiste vos
mi dulce prenda querida!
Medallita de la suerte
que te llevo desde niño
es tan grande mi cariño
como el miedo de perderte
Yo nací para quererte
porque junto a mi cunita
te bendijo mi viejita
con el llanto de su amor
¡Siempre así, corazón
con el mismo amor los dos!

Lovin' Up A Storm
((French Version: Barbe Bleue (by Eddy Mitchell) - 1965))
Composer(s): Luther Dixon - Allyson Khent
First release by: Jerry Lee Lewis & His Pumping Piano - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
When our kisses fly like oak leaves
Caught in a gust of wind
My heart beats fast, a clickty-clack
Like a train goin' round a bend
I call that Lovin' Up a Storm!
I said that's Lovin Up a Storm!
Well it's good for you honey
It won't do you no harm
Ah when a we get with it darlin'
All I can hear is a sigh
Something touches you deep in your heart
Like it's lightin' from the sky
I call that Lovin' Up a Storm!
Whoaa Lovin Up a Storm!
Well it's good for you baby
It won't do you no harm
Ohhhhh!
When we're embracing darlin'
I get wild as a hurricane
Ah when we kiss Great Balls of Fire!
Ice-water's running through my veins
I call that Lovin' Up a Storm!
Ohhh Lovin Up a Storm!
Well it's good for you baby
It won't do you no harm
Well it's good for you baby
It won't do you no harm
Oh... It's good for you baby
It won't do you no harm

Medac
Medac
Originally performed by: The Who
Henry Pond had no fun
Had a face like a currant bun
This adolescent little fella
Was nicknamed by his friends "Old Yella"
The doctors gave him creams and lotions
To try to sooth the boys emotions
But all in vain; the acne stayed
Henry's hopes began to fade
Then, when just about to crack
He found another cream - Medac
When Henry in the mirror peered
His pimples all had disappeared
Henry laughed and yelled "I got 'em!
Me face is like a baby's bottom"

Living A Lie
Living A Lie
Composer(s): Peter DeAngelis - Jean Sawyer
Performer(s): Al Martino
Why cry when she tells you she's leaving?
A teardrop or two won't keep her loving you
Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on
Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
You can't change her mind with your grievin'
It's wrong to pretend, let it end
This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try
And that's better than living a lie
Be grateful she's gone, no more to lead you on
Only fools want to try living a li-i-i-ie
This first love may die but you've still got time, give it one more try
And that's better than living a lie
And that's better than livin' a lie

Méchante Avec De Jolis Seins
Méchante Avec De Jolis Seins
Performer(s): Georges Brassens
Hélas, si j'avais pu deviner que vos avantages
Cachaient sournoisement, madame, une foison d'oursins
J'eusse borné mon zèle à d'innocents marivaudages
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins
Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
J'eusse borné mon zèle à d'innocents marivaudages
Ma main n'eût pas quitté même un instant le clavecin
Je me fusse permis un madrigal, pas davantage
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins
Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Quand on a comme vous reçu tant de grâce en partage
C'est triste au fond du cœur de rouler d'aussi noirs desseins
Vous gâchez le métier de belle, et c'est du sabotage
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins
Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Vous gâchez le métier de belle, et c'est du sabotage
Et je succombe ou presque sous votre charme assassin
Moi qui vais tout à l'heure atteindre à la limite d'âge
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins
Si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Moi qui vais tout à l'heure atteindre à la limite d'âge
Mon ultime recours c'est d'entrer chez les capucins
Car vous m'avez détruit, anéanti comme Carthage
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins?
Se peut-il qu'on soit si méchante avec de jolis seins
Si méchante avec de jolis seins?

Living
Living
Composer(s): Alice Cooper
Performer(s): Alice Cooper
Living is only one part of being
Believing is to know just what your feeling
You weren't supposed to think you know
You heard
I'm sure you knowing your growing and it's you
Thinking is your own world of living
Dreaming is the one way to feeling
Yopu wind and your eye can see everything that you
The only real person you need to know is you

Mecca
Mecca
Composer(s): Neval Nader; John Gluck Jr.
Performer(s): Gene Pitney
I live on the West side
she lives on the East side of the stree-ee-eet
And though they say that East is East and West is West
And never the twain shall meet
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e
Oh she's my dream goddess and her ruby lips are so div-i-ine
And though her folks say we're too young to know of love
I worship at her shrine
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e
Each morning I face her window and pray that our love can be
'cause that brownstone house where my baby lives
Is Mecca (Mecca, Mecca, Mecca) Mecca (Mecca, Mecca) to me-e-e-e-e-e

Mec
Composer(s): Claude Lemesle; Michel Fugain
Performer(s): Michel Fugain
Salut Mec
J'ai eu du mal à trouver ta chambre
T'aurais dû mettre "coucou c'est là!"
Youpi Youpa
L'infirmière à lunettes
Parle de toi d'un air tendre
T'as toujours eu la barre Mec
Faudrait pas qu'ça s'arrête
Tu sais Mec
Le Baby-foot à trois c'est pas drôle
Sans cri de guerre le cœur y est pas
Youpi Youpa
Hier au soir chez le grec
On a forcé sur la gnôle
On a fini cassé Mec
On veut pas qu'ça s'arrête
Ce putain de venin
Qui sème la mort dans le sang!
Et ce putain de vaccin qui traîne!
Accroche toi Mec, retiens
La vie qui fuit mais qui t'aime
Dans les bouquins ça fait bien
De finir jeune mais nous on te veut
Vieux...
Ce soir Mec
Y a toutes les filles du monde qui pleurent
Même celles qui ne connaissaient pas
Youpi Youpa
Et les vivants les plus secs
Ont un pavé sur le cœur
Un ami qui s'en va Mec
C'est la terre qui s'arrête
Tu vois Mec
Ce matin le soleil avait honte
De venir éclairer tout ça
Youpi Youpa
J'crois qu'de Lourdes à la mecque
Les dieux se foutent du monde
On va pas s'laisser faire Mec
J'voudrais pas qu'ça s'arrête
Ce putain de destin
Qui sème la merde en passant!
Et ces putains de médecins qui traînent!
Accroche-toi Mec, reviens
Dans la mascarade humaine
Au cinéma ça fait bien
De partir jeune mais nous on te veut
Vieux...
On t'aime Mec!
Et t'as pas le droit de pas me répondre
Allez fais-moi encore une fois
Youpi Youpa!
Redis-moi qu'j'suis un con Mec
Que je crains que j'encombre
Refais-moi c'que t'étais Mec
J'voudrais pas qu'ça s'arrête
J'voudrais pas qu'ça s'arrête

Livin' Without You
Livin' Without You
Composer(s): David Cassidy - Rick Neigher - Sue Shifrin
Performer(s): David Cassidy
Swore I would find you if it takes me forever
God only knows it might take that long
Keep walkin' down these empty sidewalks
Thinkin' I see you but I'm always wrong
Since you've been gone baby nothin's gone right
When you kissed me goodbye it was the kiss of death
Ever since you left
There's no livin' without you
I've tried
But I'm not livin' without you
As long as I'm alive
I'm not livin' without you
You sent me off to this lonely prison
I serve my sentence all alone
You wanted blood - that's what you're gettin'
Pay with my life every day you're gone
I'd die for a chance just to hold you again
I'd give anything to taste your kiss of life
Don't let a good thing die
There's no livin' without you
I've tried
But I'm not livin' without you
As long as I'm alive
I'm not livin' without you
Baby you could save me
Come back to me and then
You could help me
Through this long night
Breathe life into me again
There's no livin' without you
I've tried
But I'm not livin' without you
As long as I'm alive
I'm not livin' without you

Livin' Thing
Livin' Thing
Composer(s): Jeff Lynne
First release by: Electric Light Orchestra - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
Sailin' away on the crest of a wave
It's like magic
Rollin' and ridin' and slippin' & slidin'
It's magic
And you, and your sweet desire
You took me, higher and higher
It's a livin' thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
Making believe this is what you've conceived
From your worst day,
Moving in line when you look back in time
To your first day
And you, and your sweet desire
You took me, higher and higher
It's a livin' thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose
Takin' a dive 'cos you can't halt the slide
Floating downstream,
So let her go don't start spoiling the show
It's a bad dream
And you, and your sweet desire
You took me, higher and higher
It's a livin' thing
It's a terrible thing to lose
It's a given thing
What a terrible thing to lose

Meat Balls
Meat Balls
Composer(s): Lil Johnson
Performer(s): Lil Johnson; Dana Gillespie
Got out late last night, in the rain and sleet
Tryin' to find a butcher that grind my meat
Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher
He must be long and tall
If he want to grind my meat
'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
A no good man but he's so doggone stout
Before he starts to grindin' he's all worn out
Somebody send me a butcher
He must be long and tall
If he want to grind my meat
'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
He can clean my fish, even pick my crabs
But what I need is my meat ground bad
Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher
He must be long and tall
If he want to grind my meat
'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
You can have your roast chicken and your good lamb stew
But for my choice them old meat balls will do
Somebody send me a butcher
He must be long and tall
If he want to grind my meat
'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
Now look here papa, don't try to stall
If you can't grind a long time, don't grind at all
Yes I'm lookin' for a butcher
He must be long and tall
If he want to grind my meat
'Cause I'm wild about my meat balls
