Mel Da Ilha


Mel Da Ilha
Composer(s): Ronaldo Bastos
Performer(s): Cláudio Nucci & Renato Ze



Foi só morder a maçã para sonhar
Sonhar que ia também, meu bem quero ir
Quando for pra ilha
Irmão me leva, irmã me leva
Foi só pensar em você, já estava lá
Pra lá de um céu todo azul
Na beira do mar
Lá estava a ilha
A cor morena, o mel da ilha
Moendo a cana, movendo a ilha

Não esqueça de dizer adeus sorrindo
Recados vão na brisa do mar
Nobreza seja o mel da nossa lha
O sonho pode ser seu, qualquer lugar
(Bis)

Riqueza de viver e ter amigos
Não esqueça não esquecer de me levar
Foi só pensar em você para sonhar

Once Or Twice


Once Or Twice
Composer(s): Terry Kath
Performer(s): Chicago



Oh girl
I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me

Oh girl
I think you got a messed up mind
But if you will take the time
Baby I can set you free

Well I'm not trying to be
What I am not
But I think what you need
Is what I got

Girl I'm no philosopher
But I can offer you that cure
To mend your broken heart
I know that you are not blind
I know you see my messed up mind
I bet you see my broken heart too

So won't you
Bring your heart and your mind
That's out on the run
Fuse them with my broken heart
In my mind
We'll be one

Girl I looked you over once or twice
I think that you are very nice
And you're just meant for me

Girl I think you got a messed up mind
Now that you know yours is just like mine
Baby, won't you set me free

1,000,000 Years B.C.


1,000,000 Years B.C.
Performer(s): The Misfits



They're calling me, creatures of the night
Beautiful music
Animal instincts survived

The serpent's tongue
So ancient before the dawn of time
Fed throughout the ages
On the blood of mankind

I've seen it all
From grace men fall
Babylon
Curse of all creations
Winged serpent of the pit
Monstrosity

One million years BC

Ten thousand centuries ago
Cast down from Heaven
To pillage below

The serpent's eyes

Le Train


Le Train
Performer(s): Esther Ofarim



Le train, le train que j'attends
le train, le train que j'attends
un matin s'arrêtera
et mon amour en descendra
Oho oho ...

Cette gare , j'y viens chaque jour
d'un cœur léger ou d'un cœur lourd
et sur un banc de marronnier
je rêve de te retrouver
Oho oho ...

Le train, le train que j'attends
le train, le train que j'attends
je l'ai vu là devant moi
mais mon amour n'y était pas

Oho oho ...
Hou hou ...

Once On A Sunday Morning


Once On A Sunday Morning
Composer(s): Luis Aguile; Alan Blakley;
Len "Chip" Hawkes; Kusik; Snyder
Performer(s): The Tremeloes; James Last



She was just a dream
I can't explain just the way I feel
Strange as if they seemed
But in my mind she was very real

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Reaching for my hand
She smiled at me, we walked away
Tried to understand
But I could see through a sunny day

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Lalalalala..

Saturday was done
I went to bed, but I couldn't sleep
Sunday came along
The memory I will always keep

Once on a Sunday morning
Before the sunlight was in the air
Once on a Sunday morning
Before my eyes she was standing there

Lalalalala..

Dididididi..

On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning
On a Sunday morning

10 Degrees And Getting Colder


10 Degrees And Getting Colder Composer(s): Gordon Lightfoot First release by: Gordon Lightfoot - 1971 Covered by multiple other artists



He was standin' by the highway
with a sign that just said Mother
When he heard a driver comin'
'Bout a half a mile away
Then he held the sign up higher
Where no decent soul could miss it
It was ten degrees or colder
Down by bolder dam that day

He was raised up in Milwaukee
Though he never was that famous
He was just a road musician
To the taverns he would go
Singin' songs about the ramblin'
The lovin' girls and gamblin'
How the world fell on his shoulders
Back in Boulder I don't know

It was out in Arizona
That he heard the lady listenin'
To each word that he was sayin'
To each line that he would write
So he sat down by her table and
They talked about the weather
Ninety-eight point six and risin'
Down by Boulder dam that day

And she told him she would take him
For a ride in the mornin' sun
Back in Boulder he had told her
I don't know when I had a better friend

Now he's traded off his Martin
But his troubles are not over
For his feet are almost frozen
And the sun is sinkin' low
Won't you listen to me brother
If you ever loved your mother
Please pull off on the shoulder
If you're goin' Milwaukee way
It's ten degrees and getting colder
Down by Boulder dam today

Le Venin


Le Venin Composer(s): Bernard Lavilliers Performer(s): Bernard Lavilliers



Une mélodie mélancolique viendeto du ghetto L'après-midi plombé à mort lui donne ce tempo Sous un ciel d'encre, des enfants jouent à lancer leurs couteaux Au-dessus des caisses où des vieux sages planquent leurs dominos Cette mélodie mélancolique qui vient de la Havane Contient des ondes maléfiques aux allures de Gitane M'a dit un vieux conteur d'histoires, buveur de rhum hors-pair Connu à Kingston un beau soir, en lui payant des verres Il y a longtemps, un marin fou, amant d'une Gipsy Elle voulait tout lui donner, tout, mais lui n'a rien compris J'ai un peu oublié la suite, qui parle de vengeance Du danger des vraies amoureuses, de poison et de rance Cette mélodie mélancolique qui vient de la Havane Contient des ondes maléfiques aux allures de Gitane Amour couvert ou très obscur, provoquant le destin Cette mélodie porte-malheur, et s'appelle le venin viendeto viendeto viendeto du ghetto Une mélodie mélancolique viendeto du ghetto La pluie qui envahit la rue lui donne ce tempo Une chanson bizarre et maléfique qui fait fuir les marins Moi je la chante pour le risque, on verra bien demain... viendeto viendeto viendeto du ghetto

Meisjes Van 13


Meisjes Van 13
Performer(s): Paul van Vliet



Hebben van die wapperende voeten
Lopen altijd overal tegenop
Weten helemaal niet wat ze moeten
Kauwen dus de hele dag maar drop
Moeten oude jurken van hun grote zusjes aan
Die hun moeders hen nu juist zo enig vinden staan
Houden niet van zomerkampen moeten daar toch heen
En zijn daar met z'n honderden verschrikkelijk alleen

Meisjes van dertien, niet zo gelukkig
Meisjes van dertien, en net tussenin
Te groot voor de poppen, te groot voor de merels
Te klein voor de liefde, te klein voor de kerels
Met een glimmende neus
En met knokige knietjes
En in hun dagboek
Staan de kleine verdrietjes
Meisjes van dertien, vlak voor 't begin
Meisjes van dertien, er net tussenin

Hebben van die dromerige koppies
Hebben van dat dunne steile haar
Willen niet meer samen met de jongens
Willen nou alleen nog met elkaar
Giechelen bij de naam van 't onbereikbare idool
Giechelen om hun vader en de leraren op school
Giechelen van ongemak en giechelen van spijt
Giechelen zich een weggetje naar een betere tijd

Meisjes van dertien, niet zo gelukkig
Meisjes van dertien, en net tussenin
Te groot voor de poppen, te groot voor de merels
Te klein voor de liefde, te klein voor de kerels
Nog nergens een vrouw, ja van boven voorzichtig
Maar verder nog nergens, nog te dun en te spichtig
Meisjes van derien, droom er maar van
Meisjes van dertien, giechel maar an

Once More


Once More
Composer(s): Dusty Owens
Performer(s): Roy Acuff;
and various other artists



Once more to be with you dear
Just for tonight to hold you tight
Once more I'd give up a fortune
If I could see you once more

Forget the past, this hurt can't last
Oh I don't want it to keep us apart
Your love I'll crave, I'll be your slave
If you'll just give me all of your heart

Once more to be with you dear
Just for tonight to hold you tight
Once more I'd give a fortune
If I could see you once more
Once more

10 Light Years Away


10 Light Years Away Composer(s): M. Frederiksen; M. Jones; Klaus Meine; Rudolph Schenker Performer(s): Scorpions



In a run down bed and breakfast
A room with a view, across the river
I tried to loos the claustrophobia
Opened up and find Utopia
There's no more denying
As my mind go flying
10 light years away to save my soul
10 light years away to change it all
Whatever it may take I gotta try again
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away
I'd been watching the reflection
Of a bamboo in the shade, when I saw her
A very hot day in Havana
In a midnight blue lagoon
I knew she was hiding
10 light years away so take me home
10 light years away to change it all
Help me find today It's been way too long
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away
There's no more denying
As my mind go flying
10 light years away to save my soul
10 light years away to change it all
Whatever it may take I gotta try again
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away so take me home
10 light years away to change it all
Help me find today It's been way too long
Girl it's time to start over
10 light years away

A Baby Just Like You


A Baby Just Like You Composer(s): John Denver - Joe Henry Performer(s): John Denver and multiple other artists




The season is upon us now
A time for gifts and giving
And as the year draws to its close
I think about my living
Christmas time when I was young
The magic and the wonder
But colors dull and candles dim
And dark my standing under

Oh, little angel, shining light
You've set my soul to dreaming
You've given back my joy in life
You filled me with new meaning

A savior King was born that day
A baby just like you
And as the Magi came with gifts
I come with my gift too
That peace on earth fills up your time
And brotherhood surrounds you
That you may know the warmth of love
And wrap it all around you

It's just a wish, a dream I'm told
From days when I was young
Merry Christmas little Zachary
Merry Christmas everyone
Merry Christmas little Zachary
Merry Christmas everyone

Meisjes Van 30


Meisjes Van 30
Performer(s): Paul van Vliet



Hebben van die rusteloze voeten
Lopen daardoor overal tegenop
En 't is ook wel verwarrend wat ze moeten
Een baan, een man, een kind en hogerop
Rennen van hun werk, via de creche naar 't cafe
En moet 't kind dan eerst naar bed, of nemen we 't mee
En als je nog geen kind hebt: kan dat wachten of moet dat nu
En eten we weer sousjies, of toch aardappels met jus

Meisjes van dertig, niet ongelukkig
Meisjes van dertig, er net tussenin
Te oud voor 't zomaar wat vlind'rende leven
Te jong om een toekomst uit handen te geven
Ze hebben succes en een heleboel plannen
Maar krijgen daardoor vaak problemen met mannen
Meisjes van dertig, vlak na 't begin
Meisjes van dertig, d'r weer tussenin

Hebben iets van heimwee in hun ogen
Hebben van dat doorgewaaide haar
Willen best wat delen met de jongens
Maar willen ook nog heel graag met elkaar
Giechelen, net als vroeger, bij een drankje en muziek
Giechelend langs de rekken van een lekkere boetiek
Giechelen om niet te huilen, om de wereld en de tijd
Maar een giechelende meid is niet op morgen voorbereid

Meisjes van dertig, niet ongelukkig
Meisjes van dertig, er net tussenin
Te oud voor: we zien wel, 't komt allemaal later
Te jong nog voor wijn die vermengd is met water
Voor altijd een vrouw; in gedachten soms even
Dat meisje van dertien, dat wacht op 't leven
Meisjes van dertig, maak d'r wat van
Want 't leuke van dertig, dat alles nog kan

Once Is Never Enough


Once Is Never Enough
Composer(s): Ian Crichton; Jim Crichton;
Jim Gilmour; Steve Negus; Michael Sadler
Performer(s): Saga



You say I can't then I have to
Have all the things I don't need
I guess it's human nature
The animal in me
You can call it my obsession
You've got me under your spell
If there's something I am wanting
I'll just help myself
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
I like to touch the fire
Maybe some day I'll get burned
After all this chasing
Don't think I'll ever learn
So when you see me coming
You can run but you can't hide
"Cause when I know just what I'm after
I won't stop until I die
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
I don't know what I want to
Have all the things that I don't need
It must be human nature
Or it's the animal in me
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough
Thrill of the chase
When you get what you want
Will that be enough
Thrill of the chase
When you find you can't stop
Once is never enough

Gotta waste a bore now, I see

Think I will enjoy the view

Everything is standing still

Meio-Dia Meia-Lua


Meio-Dia Meia-Lua (aka Na Ilha De Lia, No Barco De Rosa)
Composer(s): Chico Buarque; Edú Lobo
Performer(s): Edú Lobo



Quando adormecia na ilha de Lia
Meu Deus, eu só vivia a sonhar
Que passava ao largo no barco de Rosa
E queria aquela ilha abordar
Pra dormir com Lia que via que eu ia
Sonhar dentro do barco de Rosa
Rosa que se ria e dizia nem coisa com coisa

Era um armadilha de Lia com Rosa com Lia
Eu não podia escapar
Girava num barco num lago no centro da ilha
Num moinho do mar
Era estar com Rosa nos braços de Lia
Era Lia com balanço de Rosa
Era tão real
Era devaneio
Era meio a meio
Meio Rosa meio Lia, meio
Meio-dia mandando eu voltar com Lia
Meia-lua mandando eu partir com Rosa
Na ilha de Lia, de Lia, de Lia
No barco de Rosa, de Rosa, de Rosa

Once Is Enough


Once Is Enough
Composer(s): Sid Tepper; Roy C. Bennett
Performer(s): Elvis Presley; The Taildraggers



All you got is one life
Living once can be rough
But if you live every day all the way
Once is enough

You can own just one suit
Worn and torn at the cuff
But if you're livin' the life that you love
Once is enough

What's the good of reaching ninety
If you waste eighty-nine
You got one life so live it
If you don't it's a crime

Life's a playful puppy
You can grab by the scruff
And if you live every sec', what the heck
Once is enough

Never wait until tomorrow
What if it never comes
Life is a seven layer
Don't you settle for crumbs

Life's a playful puppy
You can grab by the scruff
And if you live every sec', what the heck
Once is enough
And if you live every sec', what the heck
Once is enough
And if you live every sec', what the heck
Once is enough

10 Seconds To Forever


10 Seconds To Forever
Composer(s): Robert Calvert
Performer(s): Nik Turner



In the tenth second of forever
I thought of the sea and a white yacht drifting
In the ninth second of forever
I remembered a warm room where voices played
In the eighth second of forever
I thought of the life I would not lead
In the seventh second of forever
I thought of a leaf, a stone, a plastic fragment of a child's toy
In the sixth second of forever
I saw your mouth whispering something I could hear
In the fifth second of forever
I thought of the vermillion deserts of Mars, the jewelled forests of Venus
In the fourth second of forever
I could remember nothing that I did not love
In the third second of forever
I thought of rain against a window, I thought of the wind
In the second second of forever
I thought of a pair of broken shades lying on the tarmac
In the first and final second of forever
I thought of the long past that had led to now
And never...
Never...
Never...

A Candle In The Window


A Candle In The Window Composer(s): Walt Aldridge - Gary Baker - Susan Longacre Performer(s): Alabama



There's a road that I remember
leading to a special place

Where the door was always open to a smiling face
There's a picture on the mantle of a boy that looks like me
It's always the same, there's a stocking with my name

And a candle in the window, a flame against the night
There's a candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light
It don't take a lot of money to know what riches are
Just a candle in the window

Maybe it's just wishful thinking I can hear the sleigh bells ring
Almost taste the pie she's baking, it's Christmas Eve

And there's a candle in the window, a flame against the night
The candle in the window, it's like God's perfect light
It don't take a lot of money to know what riches are
Just a candle in the window and Christmas in your heart

Wherever the years may take me no matter how far I go
There's going to be a candle burning, it's always nice to know
It don't take a lot of money to know what riches are
Just a candle in the window and Christmas in your heart

Meine Wahrheit


Meine Wahrheit
French Title: Ma Vérité
Composer(s): R. Wagner; J.P. Sabar;
Pierre Delanoë; Claude Lemesle; R. Zuckowski
Performer(s): Nana Mouskouri



Endlose Nacht, strahlendes Licht
Stets hat die Wahrheit ein anderes Gesicht
Schnell wie der Wind, treibt sie dich fort
Tosende Stürme verkünden ihr Wort

Zart wie ein Hauch kommt sie zurück
Singt mit den Vögeln im Frühling ihr Lied
Doch dann und wann, mit Dir allein
Scheint meine Wahrheit die Liebe zu sein

Freude und Glück, Tränen und Leid
Stets trägt die Wahrheit ein anderes Kleid
Dem der sich sagt ich hab gelebt
Scheint sie vielleicht aus Erinn'rung gewebt

Dem der beschließt "Frag nicht was war"
Zeigt sie die Farben der Zukunft ganz klar
Doch dann und wann, mit Dir allein
Scheint meine Wahrheit die Liebe zu sein

Kind oder Greis, Frau oder Mann
Stets trägt die Wahrheit ein andrer voran
Laut oder still, kommt sie zu Dir
Wenn du bereit bist und offen dafür

Du kannst sie hör'n, Du kannst sie seh'n
Oder Dein Herz wird sie verstehn
