Ik Wil Alles Met Je Delen
Ik Wil Alles Met Je Delen
First performance by: Maywood - 1990
Jij bent niet de enige die zich verloren voelt
En al kwamen woorden harder aan dan ik ze had bedoeld
Ik meende alles wat ik zei, ik heb ook geleerd
Om te vechten voor een nieuwe dag, is dat dan verkeerd
Ik wil alles met je delen, 'k wil alles voor je zijn
En als je me wilt vertrouwen, dan delen we de pijn
Samen met je janken, samen uit je bol
Samen door het lint gaan, niets is mij te dol
Het leven is een carrousel, het leven is een straat
Die eens doodloopt als je niet meer weet hoe het verder gaat
Even, ja heel even maar denk je 't is voorbij
Maar ik hou van jou zoals je bent, hou je ook van mij
Ik wil alles met je delen, 'k wil alles voor je zijn
En als je me wilt vertrouwen, dan delen we de pijn
Samen met je janken, samen uit je bol
Samen door het lint gaan, niets is mij te dol
Als ik het licht zie aan de horizon
Weet ik nog hoe het was, hoe het eens begon
Ik wil alles met je delen, 'k wil alles voor je zijn
En als je me wilt vertrouwen, dan delen we de pijn
Samen met je janken, samen uit je bol
Samen door het lint gaan, niets is mij te dol

Up The 'Pool
Up The 'Pool
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
I'm going up the `pool from down the smoke below
to taste my mum's jam sarnies and see our Aunty Flo
The candyfloss salesman watches ladies in the sand
down for a freaky weekend in the hope that they'll be meeting
Mister Universe
The iron tower smiles down upon the silver sea
and along the golden mile they'll be swigging mugs of tea.
The politicians there who've come to take the air
while posing for the daily press
will look around and blame the mess on Edward Bear
There'll be bucket, spades and bingo, cockles, mussels, rainy days,
seaweed and sand castles, icy waves
Deck chairs, rubber dinghies, old vests, braces dangling down,
sun-tanned stranded starfish in a daze
We're going up the `pool from down the smoke below
to taste my mum's jam sarnies and see our Aunty Flo
The candy floss salesman watches ladies in the sand
down for a freaky weekend in the hope that they'll be meeting
Mister Universe
There'll be buckets, spades and bingo, cockles, mussels, rainy days,
seaweed and sand castles, icy waves
Deck chairs, rubber dinghies, old vests, braces dangling down,
sun-tanned stranded starfish in a daze
Oh Blackpool

Something About You
Composer(s): Brian Holland - Lamont Dozier - Eddie Holland
First release by: The Four Tops - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Darlin' darlin'
If I could have you to call my very own
I work my fingers to the bone, I am alone
To you I'd always come home
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you set my soul on fire
I need you, yeah, badly
I know what price I have to pay
'Cause without you, darlin', I'd worry hard
I love you anyway
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
Sweet sweet thing, I'm satisfied
Sweet sweet thing, you're my only desire
I'm just yours puppet on a string
And tears sometimes it brings
Do me any way you wanna when you wanna
I'll keep you just the same
'Cause there's something about you, baby
That makes me keep loving you
There's something about you, baby
Makes me love you just a little bit more
Truly does, just a little bit more
You're a real heartbreaker
You will never let me sit down
There's something about you, baby
That shakes me all up inside
You're a real heartbreaker
But I need you just the same ...

Up The Revolution
Up The Revolution
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Robin Gibb; Maurice Gibb
Performer(s): Elton John; The Bee Gees
I tell you the truth can be painful
And the mainstream of life can be cruel
If you believe in your chances today
you could be a fool, don't you be a fool, oh no
Revenge is mine, oh no
A case of do or die
Gather round if you want to be free
Sing the words to this song
We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me
When achieving the impossible is a possibility
It's a time for any loser to win, it's how you play the game
Don't you start the revolution without me in another name
Stand by your bunbury notions
That is how you get to be strong
Now you come here from over the sea
Where you don't belong, no you don't belong, oh no
Friend of mine, oh no
A case of do or die
Gather round if you want to be free
Sing the words to this song
We go up the revolution, go down to what you mean to me
When achieving the impossible is a possibility
It's a time for any loser to win, and you can overthrow
We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow
Oh no, revenge is mine, oh no
A case of do or die
Gather round if you want to be free
Sing the words to this song
We go up the revolution, go down to find a brighter day
If you dream the unapproachable dream, you find a better way
If it's just another corner you're in, then you can overthrow
We go up the revolution, freedom strike another blow

Macédomienne
Macédomienne
Composer(s): Philippe Lafontaine
First performance by: Philippe Lafontaine - 1989
Quand elle pleure, c'est tout l'Adriatique
Qui se déchaîne dans ses yeux
Quand elle dort, c'est pas très loin d'Ohrid
Elle fait des rêves au bord de beaux lacs tout bleus
Je la revois, petite fille aux pieds nus
De la pluie dans ses cheveux
Dans sa maison, au sol en terre battue
Elle a laissé les illusions de tous ses jeux
Qu'elle veut rien qu'à elle
Elle a le charme des Macédomiennes
C'est vital que je l'aime, que j'y tienne
Quoique vous fassiez, quoique vous pensiez
Mais elle est plus belle
Ceux qui s'en défient qu'ils y viennent
Ils verront combien j'y gagne et qu'elle est mienne
Vous pouvez crier, vous pouvez pleurer, vous pouvez rire
Surtout pas d'elle
Quand elle se couche sur fond de colline
Elle fait de mon corps ce qu'elle veut
C'est un tournesol émigré dans la vigne
Au cœur aride et qui fait flamme de tout feu
Un cri tzigane caché dans ses murmures
Elle vit l'amour sans désaveu
Quand elle se bat du haut de ses blessures
Elle fait semblant de tout
Elle fait la nique aux dieux
Trop ont envie d'elle
Elle a le charme des Macédomiennes
C'est vital que je l'aime, que j'y tienne
Quoique vous fassiez, quoique vous pensiez
Mais elle est plus belle
Et ceux qui s'en défient qu'ils y viennent
Ils verront combien j'y gagne et qu'elle est mienne
Vous pouvez crier, vous pouvez pleurer, vous pouvez rire
Surtout pas d'elle

Up The Wooden Hills To Bedfordshire
Up The Wooden Hills To Bedfordshire
Composer(s): Ian MacLagan
Performer(s): The Small Faces
When you're slipping into sleep
That's the time to unwind
Sinking down into the deep
That's the time of no time
When you're slipping into sleep
All the sounds around you
Seem to have a new meaning
Leave your body behind
With a different feeling
When you're slipping into sleep
The day is night
The night is day
So squeeze out the light as I slip away
Up the wooden hills to Bedfordshire
Up the wooden hills to Bedfordshire
When you're slipping into sleep
There's a world you will find
That's all yours and you can keep
That's the only thing to keep
When you're slipping into sleep
All the sounds around you
Seem to have a new meaning
Leave your body behind
With a different feeling
When you're slipping into sleep

Something About The Way You Look Tonight
Something About The Way You Look Tonight
Composer(s): Elton John - Bernie Taupin
Performer(s): Elton John
and multiple other artists
There was a time
I was everything and nothing all in one
When you found me
I was feeling like a cloud across the sun
I need to tell you
How you light up every second of the day
But in the moonlight
You just shine like a beacon on the bay
And I can't explain
But it's something about the way you look tonight
Takes my breath away
It's that feeling I get about you, deep inside
And I can't describe
But it's something about the way you look tonight
Takes my breath away
The way you look tonight
With a smile
You pull the deepest secrets from my heart
In all honesty
I'm speechless and I don't know where to start

Up To Me
Up To Me
Composer(s): Ian Anderson
Performer(s): Jethro Tull
Take you to the cinema
and leave you in a Wimpy Bar
you tell me that we've gone to far
come running up to me
Make the scene at Cousin Jack's
leave him put the bottles back
mends his glasses that I cracked
well that one's up to me
Buy a silver cloud to ride
pack the tennis club inside
trouser cuffs hung far too wide
well it was up to me
Tyres down on your bicicle
your nose feels like an icicle
the yellow fingered smoky girl
is looking up to me
Well I'm a common working man
with a half of butter bread and jam
and if it pleases me I'll put one one you man
when the copper fades away
The rainy season comes to pass
the day-glo pirate sinks at last
and if I laughed a bit too fast
Well it was up to me

Bandido
Bandido
Composer(s): Jose L. Abel - Raul Orellana - J. Stinus
First performance by: Azúcar Moreno - 1990
La luna me embrujó y me llevó hasta ti, veneno del amor que yo feliz bebí
Y aunque mi pecho ardió y me abrasó la piel, me supo dulce como la miel
Tus ojos bandido robaron con cuentos la sangre y la vida de mi corazón
Tu ausencia en mis noches provoca lamentos, suspiros y llantos, y oscura pasión
Y ahora cada vez que de mi lado te vas, siento el dolor crecer más y más
Tus ojos bandido robaron con cuentos la sangre y la vida de mi corazón
Tu ausencia en mis noches provoca lamentos, suspiros y llantos, y oscura pasión
Así que abrázame con furia de huracán, que el fuego de tu amor sea como un volcán
Y luego bésame, atrápame en tu red, que al fin tus labios colmen mi sed
Tus ojos bandido robaron con cuentos la sangre y la vida de mi corazón
Tu ausencia en mis noches provoca lamentos, suspiros y llantos, y oscura pasión
Tus ojos bandido robaron con cuentos la sangre y la vida de mi corazón
Tu ausencia en mis noches provoca lamentos, suspiros y llantos, y oscura pasión

Up Where We Belong
Up Where We Belong
Composer(s): Buffy Sainte-Marie;
Will Jennings; Jack Nitzsche
Performer(s): Joe Cocker & Jennifer Warnes;
The Starsound Orch.; Tramaine Hawkins; Glen Campbell
Who knows what tomorrow brings
in a world where few hearts survive
All I know is the way I feel
When it's real
I keep it alive
The road is long
There are mountains in the way
but we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
where the eagles cry
on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
far from the world we know
up where the clear winds blow
Some hang on to used to be
live their lives looking behind
When all we have is here and now
All our lives
out there to find
The road is long
There are mountains in the way
but we climb a step every day
Love lift us up where we belong
where the eagles cry
on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
far from the world we know
up where the clear winds blow
Time goes by
No time to cry
Life's you and I
Alive... today
Love lift us up where we belong
where the eagles cry
on a mountain high
Love lift us up where we belong
far from the world we know
up where the clear winds blow
(Repeat Chorus)

Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon
Would you like to ride in my beautiful balloon
We could float among the stars together, you and I
For we can fly we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon
The world's a nicer place in my beautiful balloon
It wears a nicer face in my beautiful balloon
We can sing a song and sail along the silver sky
For we can fly we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon
Suspended under a twilight canopy
We'll search the clouds for a star to guide us
If by some chance you find yourself loving me
We'll find a cloud to hide us
We'll keep the moon beside us
Love is waiting there in my beautiful balloon
Way up in the air in my beautiful balloon
If you'll hold my hand we'll chase your dream across the sky
For we can fly we can fly
Up, up and away
My beautiful, my beautiful balloon
Balloon ...
Up, up, and away.....

Quand j'étais seule avec ma peine

Et je n'oublierai pas ce qu'il a fait pour moi
Quelqu'un est venu vers moi
Et m'a parlé avec tendresse
Je m'souviens des mots qu'il a dit
Il parlait d'amitié, d'amour, de liberté
Et depuis ce jour merveilleux
Pour nous deux où tout est bleu
On est chaque jour plus heureux
Pour nous deux où tout est bleu
Quelqu'un est venu ce soir
Et il a dit les mots qu'il fallait dire
Quelqu'un s'est glissé dans ma vie
Et c'est depuis ce jour
Que je sais ce qu'est l'amour

Now, things was looking golden, baby
Everything was fine
You never made no sign
That you had changed your mind
I guess I was mistaken, girl
To count so on you
What else could I do
Time to pay my dues
Well girl, I've been torn up before
But I can't handle that once more
Well I been down for a long long time
And now it's time to reach my mind
There's lots of pain upon this earth
Girl, I've had my money's worth
I have had my ups and downs and all around
Girl, I've tried to change your way of thinkin'
Tried to make you see
Well, livin' here with me
Is where you ought to be
But it didn't seem to make no difference
It never changed your world
Or stopped your social twirl
You're still the same old girl
And now, I've been torn up before
But I can't handle that once more
I been down for a long long time
But now it's time to reach my mind
'Cause there's lots of pain upon this earth
And girl, I've had my money's worth
I have had my ups and downs and all around
I've been up, down, all around now baby (up, down, all around)
I've been up, I been down, I been all around now baby (up, down, all around)

Flieger
First performance by: Nino De Angelo - 1989
Du und ich
wir sind so hoch geflogen vor gar nicht langer Zeit
ein Flugzeug voll mit jungen Träumen stand für uns bereit
Das mit uns war so groß
wir eroberten den Himmel
warum liess't du mich nur los ohne Fallschirm in der Nacht?
Ich hab' die Zeit nie ganz vergessen
als wir noch Flieger war'n
du gehst nicht raus aus meinem Herzen
ich denk' nur noch daran
Du hast oft gesagt
wir sind stark
wir zwei
so was geht doch nicht einfach so vorbei
Ich hab' die Zeit nie ganz vergessen
als wir noch Flieger war'n
Würd' es gern nochmal mit dir erleben
so'n Flug ins Abendrot
würde gern nochmal mein Herz riskieren
sogar bis in den Tod.
Das mit uns war so groß
so was gibt es nur noch selten
werden wir nur einmal noch auf den Wolken uns verlier'n?
Ich hab' die Zeit nie ganz vergessen
als wir noch Flieger war'n
du gehst nicht raus aus meinem Herzen
ich denk' nur noch daran
Du hast oft gesagt
wir sind stark
wir zwei
so was geht doch nicht einfach so vorbei
Ich hab' die Zeit

A look a-there, here she comes
There comes that girl again
Wanted to date her since I don't know when
But she don't notice me when I pass
She goes with all the guys from outa my class
But that can't stop me from a-thinkin' to myself
She's sure fine lookin' man, she's something else
Hey, look a-there, across the street
There's a car made just for me
To own that car would be a luxery
But my dollar can't afford the gas
A brand new convertible is outa my class
But that can't stop me from a—thinkin' to myself
That car's fine lookin' man, it's something else
Hey, look a—here, just wait and see
Worked hard and saved my dough
I'll buy that car that I been wanting so
Get me that girl and we'll go ridin' around
We'll look real sharp with the flight top down
I keep right on a-dreamin' and a-thinkin' to myself
When it all comes true man, wow, that's something else
Look a-there, what's all this
Never thought I'd do this before
But here I am a-knockin' on her door
My car's out front and it's all mine
Just a forty-one Ford, not a fifty-nine
I got that girl an' I'm a-thinkin' to myself
She's sure fine lookin' man, wow, she's something else

((French Version: Les Coups) (by Johnny Hallyday) - 1966))
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder - Henry Cosby - Sylvia Rose Moy
First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is all right, uptight, out of sight
I'm a poorman's son, from across the railroad tracks
The only shirt I own is hangin' on my back
But I'm the envy of ev'ry single guy
Since I'm the apple of my girl's eye
When we go out stepping on the town for a while
My money's low and my suit's out of style
But it's all right if my clothes aren't new
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
I'm a pearl of a girl, I guess that's what you might say
I guess her folks brought her up that way
The right side of the tracks, she was born and raised
In a great big old house, full of butlers and maids
No one is better than I, I know I'm just an average guy
No football hero or smooth Don Juan
Got empty pockets, you see I'm a poorman's son
She says give her the things that money can buy
But I'll never, never make my baby cry
And it's all right, what I can't do
Out of sight because my heart is true
She says baby ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, ah ah ah ah
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
Baby, ev'rything is alright, uptight, clean out of sight
