Move On (Kiss)


Move On
Composer(s): Paul Stanley; Mikel Japp
Performer(s): Kiss



Mmm, yeah
When I was just a baby, mama sat me on her knee
She told me "Boy you listen there's a lot you oughta see
A lot of pretty women, gonna try and tie you down
You don't know what you're missin' if you never look around"

Move on, that's what she told me
Move on, mmm, yeah
Move on, oh, ooh, ohh
Move on, I'm leavin' on my way

Told you that forever was a word I couldn't say
I don't know 'bout tomorrow 'cause I'm livin' for today
You're every inch a lady and you'll always have my love
You listen, you can hear, her voice is callin' from above

Move on, that's what she told me
Move on, keep on movin'
Move on, oh, ooh, ohh
Move on, I'm leavin' on my way

The time is at hand, the day is upon us
There's no need to say goodbye
You don't understand
But babe I don't want you to cry, move on

(Ooh) The time is at hand, the day is upon us
(Ooh) There's no need to say goodbye
(Ooh) You don't understand
(Ooh) But babe I don't want you to cry, move on

Move on, mmm, yeah
Move on, mmm, yeah
Move on, whoo, oh, oh, oh
Move on, (what) you got to move on, whoo, oh
You got to move on, whoo, oh, oh
You got to move on, mmm, yeah
You got to move on, play that guitar

Long Live Love (Olivia Newton-John)


Long Live Love
Composer(s): Valerie Avon - Harold Spiro
First performance by: Olivia Newton-John - 1974



Long, long live love
Love is to care
Caring and sharing
Long, long live love
All the kids like ten tin soldiers in a row
Followed hand in hand
Sister Anna carrying the banner for the Sally Annie band
Singing songs of praise and glory
We all learn to love their story
Good things are coming to you
Glory, glory hallelujah
Long, long live love
As long as we live
Living and giving
Long, long live love
On a wet day, dry day, great to be alive day
Brother takes the stand
Cymbals ringing, everybody singing with the Sally Annie band
Just a band of happy people
Teaching, preaching love is equal
When you feel the spirit move you
Glory, glory hallelujah
Long, long live love
Love is to care
Caring and sharing
Long, long live love, love, love, love, love
Ohhh
Long, long live love
As long as we live
Living forgiving
Long, long live love

Move It On Over


Move It On Over
Composer(s): Hank Williams
Originally performed by: Hank Williams
Covered by various other artists



Came in last night at half past ten
That baby of mine wouldn't let me in
So move it on over (move it on over)
Move it on over (move it on over)
Move over little dog cause the big dog's moving in

She's changed the lock on my front door
My door key don't fit no more
So get it on over (move it on over)
Scoot it on over (move it on over)
Move over skinny dog cause the fat dog's moving in

This dog house here is mighty small
But it's better than no house at all
So ease it on over (move it on over)
Drag it on over (move it on over)
Move over old dog cause a new dog's moving in

She told me not to play around
But I done let the deal go down
So pack it on over (move it on over)
Tote it on over (move it on over)
Move over nice dog cause a mad dog's moving in

She warned me once, she warned me twice
But I don't take no one's advice
So scratch it on over (move it on over)
Shake it on over (move it on over)
Move over short dog cause the tall dog's moving in

She'll crawl back to me on her knees
I'll be busy scratching fleas
So slide it on over (move it on over)
Sneak it on over (move it on over)
Move over good dog cause a mad dog's moving in

Remember pup, before you whine
That side's yours and this side's mine
So shove it on over (move it on over)
Sweep it on over (move it on over)
Move over cold dog cause a hot dog's moving in

Take That To The Bank


Take That To The Bank
Performer(s): Shalamar



Take that to the bank
Take that to the bank

A long time we stayed together
Been through the roughest weather, you and I
Still rich with love
We never had to borrow
And baby, only we know why

I’m so glad I saved my love for you
And I did what I had to do
I invested my heart so free
For what you gave me

Open your account to me
‘Cause I’ll give you security, my love
Take that to the bank
My interest is strong
I got a love you can count on, baby love
Take that to the bank

Best believe I shopped around
Good insurance you have found in me
Don’t you worry
No one can steal my heart
Our contract can’t be torn apart
That easily

‘Cause we build a strong love affair
On investments of equal share
Two hearts that beat as one
Just look what love has done

Dime in the socket
Just like money in my pocket, baby love
Take that to the bank
I know how to treat a man
With me you’re in good hands, baby love
Take that to the bank

Keep savin’, keep buildin’ (Baby)
That interest for our love
Take that to the bank
Keep savin’, keep buildin’ (Sugar)
That interest for our love
Take that to the bank

(Huh) Save on love
Save it for me, baby
(Huh) Save on love, yeah

Take that to the bank
Take that to the bank

Keep savin’, keep buildin’
That interest for our love {Love}
Take that to the bank
Keep savin’, keep buildin’
That interest for our love {Love}
Take that to the bank

Open your account to me
‘Cause I’ll give you security, my love
Take that to the bank
My interest is strong
I got a love you can count on, baby love
Take that to the bank

Come on, pretty baby, lets a-move it and a-groove it
Well-a shake, oh baby shake, oh honey please don't lose it
This rhythm that gets into your heart and soul
Let me tell you baby it's called rock an' roll

They say it's gonna die, but honey please lets face it
Well they just don't know what's a-goin' to replace it
Well ballads and calypsos have got nothing on
Real country music that just drives along
Well-a move it

Take That Look Off Your Face


Take That Look Off Your Face
((Dutch Version: Waarom Lach Je Naar Mij (Sanne) - 1996))
Composer(s): Don Black - Andrew Lloyd Webber
First release by: Marti Webb - 1980
Covered by multiple other artists



You must be mistaken, it couldn't have been
You couldn't have seen him yesterday
He's doin' some deal up in Baltimore now
I hate it when he's away

You must be mistaken, I'm sure that you are
There's more than one car with stickers on
And lots of young guys wear corduroy pants
And I'd know if he hadn't gone

Take that look off your face (Take that look off your face)
I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile)
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well I've got news for you, I knew before

If I'm not mistaken it started last year
I'm not very clear how it began
I noticed the change but I just closed my eyes
As only a woman can

So I didn't dig deep (So I didn't dig deep)
I did not want to know (I did not want to know)
Well you don't interfere
When you're scared of the things you might hear
When you thought, you think I will end this right there and then
Well, my fair weather friend, you're wrong again

(Take that look off your face) Take that look off your face
(I can see through your smile) I can see through your smile
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well I've got news for you, I knew befo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ore

(Take that look off your face)
I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile)
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well I've got news for you, I knew befo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ore

(Take that look off your face)
I can see through your smile (I can see through your smile)
You would love to be right
I bet you didn't sleep good last night
Couldn't wait to bring all of that bad news to my door
Well I've got news for you, I knew befo-o-o-o-o-o-o-ore ...

Kom Dichter


Kom Dichter
English Title: Move Closer
Performer(s): Wendy Van Wanten
(Originally performed by: Phyllis Nelson)



Hey lieverd, jij gaat jou weg
En ik de mijne
Maar op dit moment

Zijn we nog samen
Ted're gebaren
En ons lichaam
Volgt ons gevoel
Als we dansen
Vingers die zoeken
En het ritme
Zachtjes deinend

Kom dichter
Breng je lichaam zo dicht
tot jij voelt
Voelt dat we verder moeten gaan
Kom dichter
Breng je lichaam zo dicht
Tot jij voelt
Voelt dat ik veel meer wil van jou

Zo zoet als honing
Jij smaakt als suiker
Ja, alles wat ik proef smelt op m'n tong
Hoe meer ik proef, hoe meer ik verlang
Ik raak aan jou zo verslaafd

En als ik mocht kiezen
Wil ik jou nooit verliezen
Maar als straks de zon weer schijnt
Weet ik dat jij weer verwijnt
Toe

Kom dichter
Breng je lichaam zo dicht
tot jij voelt
Voelt dat we verder moeten gaan
Kom dichter
Breng je lichaam zo dicht
Tot jij voelt
Voelt dat ik veel meer wil van jou

Hey lieverd, jij gaat jou weg
En ik de mijne

Waarom Lach Je Naar Mij


Waarom Lach Je Naar Mij
((Adapted from: Take That Look Off Your Face (Marti Webb) - 1980))
Composer(s): Don Black - Andrew Lloyd Webber - Erik Van Neygen
Performer(s): Sanne - 1996



Je moet je vergissen
het kan echt niet zijn
het kan mijn man niet zijn
die je gisteren zag
hij moest voor de zaak
naar een beurs in Parijs
oh, wat mis ik zijn lieve lach

je moet je vergissen
ik geloof niks van jou
er is meer dan één auto
met stickers op
en meer dan één man
met een wiegende gang
hij is enkel verliefd op zijn job

waarom lach je naar mij?
ik zie zo door je heen
je geniet van 't idee
je geniet van je rol
als de fee
die komt waarschuwen
voor het immens grote gevaar
wel ik heb nieuws voor jou
ik gun het haar

het is geen vergissing
't begon vorig jaar
hij moest vaker naar het buitenland
hij veranderde zo
maar ik wou het niet zien
hij bracht vaak bloemen mee bovendien

nee, ik vroeg hem niet uit
ik keek zijn jassen niet na
en ik draaide mijn rug
toen je zei
"hij komt nooit meer terug"
want ik wist
't is niet meer dan een dom avontuur
wel mijn beste vriendin
wat zeg je nu?

Hey baby, you go your way
And I´ll go mine
But in the meantime

When we're together, touchin' each other
And our bodies do what we feel
When we´re dancin', smoochin' and swayin'
Tender love song softly playin'

Move closer
Move your body real close
Until we-ee-ee-ee
Feel like we're really makin' love

Ooh-ooh, move closer
Move your body real close
Until we feel like we're really makin' love

So when I say sugar-ar and I whisper I love vou
We-e-ell I know you´re gonna answer in the sweetest voice
Sayin' my pretty la-ady
I love you too-oo-oo-oo-ooh well

There's much room for passion, ooh-no-no
There's no room for fears
When, the love flows smoothly between us, baby
my dear-ear-ear-ear-ear

Give Me News I Can Use


Give Me News I Can Use
Composer(s): John Kay
Performer(s): Steppenwolf



Good evening one and all, this is channel 24
Bringing you the latest news around the world
Down in Florida today, someone tried to get away
When he commandeered the train at Disney World
Until noon it was a standoff, but then he lost his luck
When someone shot him down, dressed up like Donald Duck
It was a midget G-man
And we're sorry that we could not show it live
But we'll have film of the shooting here at five
Give me some news I can use, let me smile for a while
For the madness has taken it's toll
Give me some news I can use, just a break for the sake
Of my mind which is losing control
From Washington today, called a senator to say
That our future has been cancelled 'cause we're broke
We called the white house without end finally reached the President
Says he don't know if it's real or just a joke
And last night at the playoffs, things got pretty grim
They crucified the referee and tore him limb from limb
Ah, you should have been there
And in the weather, there's a hurricane in sight
And that's the way it is with us tonight
Give me some news I can use, let me smile for a while
For the madness has taken it's toll
Give me some news I can use, just a break for the sake
Of my mind which is losing control
Seems like every single day another mind gets blown away
And the world goes just a little more insane
I got problems of my own, tryin' to keep my house and home
And I sure could stand some cheerful news again
My agent called to tell me my record's on the chart
It's number 90 with an anchor, I never said that it was art
I gotta eat too, ya know
And my buddy who still owes me for his bail
He says, don't worry, your check is in the mail
Give me some news I can use, let me smile for a while
For the madness has taken it's toll
Give me some news I can use, just a break for the sake
Of my mind which is losing control

Take Off Time


Take Off Time
Composer(s): Autry Inman
Performer(s): Claude Gray; Don Walser



I can't wait till the sun to go down
Get myself headed into town
I'm a-gonna Schlitz and Bud and Bush
Till I get high

I've had enough of reality
Lookin' for a world of fantasy
I got a plan to get a brew in my hand
'Cause it's take off time

The rent's past due and the landlord said
I got till two to pay the 'lectric bill
I got me on my knees, beggin' please
But tonight I fly

My Wife's sat home waitin' for my check
When I don't show, she's a-gonna raise heck
But I got a flash, I'm a-gettin' the cash
Tonight's take off time

I'm a-gonna climb to dizzying heights
I'm a-gonna shine like the neon lights
I'm a-gonna sing and dance and drink
And blow my mind

When I get through, I'll be in a mess
But I'll tell you, I couldn't care less
'Cause even so when I get this low
It's take off time

Some folks fly TWA
But I know a whole lot better way
The comin' down's rough, the hangover's tough
But I like the climb

I never had a pill and I never will
But the kick is the same when you learn to kill
You're troubles and blues, with a couple of brews
'Cause that's take off time

I'm a-gonna climb to dizzying heights
I'm a-gonna shine like the neon lights
I'm a-gonna sing and dance and drink
And blow my mind

When I get through I'll be in a mess
But I'll tell you, I couldn't care less
'Cause even so when I get this low
It's take off time

Mourir Sur Scène


Mourir Sur Scène (English, Italian, & Spanish Versions: Born To Sing; Quando Nasce Un Nuovo Amore; Morir Cantando) Composer(s): Michel Jouveaux; Jeff Barnel First release by: Dalida - 1983 Covered by multiple other artists



Viens, mais ne viens pas quand je serai seule
Quand le rideau un jour tombera
Je veux qu'il tombe derrière moi

Viens, mais ne viens pas quand je serai seul
Moi qui ai tout choisi dans ma vie
Je veux choisir ma mort aussi
Il y a ceux qui veulent mourir un jour de pluie
Et d'autres en plein soleil
Il y a ceux qui veulent mourir seuls dans un lit
Tranquilles dans leur sommeil

Moi je veux mourir sur scène
Devant les projecteurs
Oui je veux mourir sur scène
Le cœur ouvert tout en couleurs
Mourir sans la moindre peine
Au dernier rendez-vous
Moi je veux mourir sur scène
En chantant jusqu'au bout

Viens, mais ne vient pas quand je serai seule
Tous les deux on se connaît déjà
On s'est vu de près souviens-toi

Viens, mais ne viens pas quand je serai seule
Choisis plutôt un soir de gala
Si tu veux danser avec moi
Ma vie a brûlé sous trop de lumières
Je ne peux pas partir dans l'ombre
Moi je veux mourir fusillée de lasers
Devant une salle comble

Moi je veux mourir sur scène
Devant les projecteurs
Oui je veux mourir sur scène
Le cœur ouvert tout en couleurs
Mourir sans la moindre peine
Au dernier rendez-vous
Moi je veux mourir sur scène
En chantant jusqu'au bout
Musique
Mourir sans la moindre peine
D'une mort bien orchestrée
Moi, je veux mourir sur scène
C'est là que je suis née
