Straighten Up And Fly Right
Straighten Up And Fly Right
Composer(s): Nat King Cole - Irving Mills
First release by: The King Cole Trio - 1943
Covered by multiple other artists
A buzzard took a monkey for a ride in the air
The monkey thought that everything was on the square
The buzzard tried to throw the monkey off his back
But the monkey grabbed his neck and said "Now listen, Jack"
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top
Ain't no use in divin'
What's the use in jivin'
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top
The buzzard told the monkey "You are chokin' me
Release your hold and I will set you free"
The monkey looked the buzzard right dead in the eye and said
"Your story's so touchin' but it sounds just like a lie"
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top
Straighten up and fly right
Straighten up and stay right
Straighten up and fly right
Cool down, papa, don't you blow your top

Performer(s): Baccara;
and various other artists
Mister, your eyes are full of hesitation
Sure makes me wonder, if you know what you're looking for
Baby, I want to keep my reputation
I'm a sensation, you tried me once, you're back for more
Ohh
Yes sir I can boogie
But I need a certain song
I can boogie, boogie boogie
All night long
Yes sir I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie boogie
All night long
No sir, I don't feel very much like talking
No neither walking, you wanna know if I can dance
Yes sir, already told you in the first word
And in the cold
But I will give you one more chance
Ohh
Yes sir I can boogie
But I need a certain song
I can boogie, boogie boogie
All night long
Yes sir I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie boogie
All night long
Yes sir I can boogie
If you stay you can't go wrong
I can boogie, boogie boogie
All night long

We Could Be The Same
We Could Be The Same
Composer(s): Ferman Akgül
First performance by: maNga - 2010
You could be the one in my dreams
You could be much more than you seem
Anything I've wanted in life
Do you understand what I mean?
I can see that this could be fate
I can love you more than they hate
Doesn't matter who they will blame
We can beat them at their own game
I can see it in your eyes
It doesn't come as a surprise
I've seen you dancing like a star
No matter how different we are
For all this time I've been loving you
Don't even know your name
For just one night, we could be the same
No matter what they say
And I feel I'm turning the page
And I feel the world is a stage
I don't think that drama will stop
I don't think they'll give up the rage
But I know the world could be great
I can love you more than they hate
Doesn't matter who they will blame
We can beat them at their own game
I can see it in your eyes
It doesn't count as a surprise
I see you dancing like a star
No matter how different we are
For all this time I've been loving you
Don't even know your name
For just one night, we could be the same
No matter what they say
For all this time I've been loving you
Don't even know your name
For just one night, we could be the same
No matter what they say
No matter what they say
No matter what they say
We could be the same
No matter what they say

Yerushalaim
Yerushalaim
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
De temps en temps
Comme un enfant
Ma pensée te dessine
Yerushalaim
De loin en loin
Tu n' est plus qu' un
Rêve qui tombe en ruine
Yerushalaim
Tel ces émigrants
Dont les yeux brûlants
S' ouvrent à l' écho de ton nom
D' au-delà des mers
Souvent à travers
D' hostiles et dures régions
J' étais venu
Mains vides et pieds nu
À toi Yerushalaim
Pour me garder
Tu as cloué
L' amour dans ma poitrine
Yerushalaim
Où sont mes joies
N' y a-t-il pas
De bonheur sans épines?
Yerushalaim
Tout s' est acharné
Pour nous déchirer
Et le brouillard de nos pleures
A troublé l' azur
Élevant un mur
Entre son cœur et mon cœur
Mais j' ai en moi
L' espoir toutefois
Que l' amour encore
Renaisse et vive encore
Pour nous à Yerushalaim

Straight From The Shoulder
Straight From The Shoulder
Composer(s): Harry Revel - Mack Gordon
Performer(s): Bing Crosby & Kitty Carlisle
I could sing your praises with eloquent phrases
Describe you and bribe you with wonderful speeches
I could sing your praises with grand repartee
But darling I desire to confess my love
Express my love, this way
I know the words that I use
Are simple and not very smart
But what I say, I say to you
Straight from the shoulder, right from the heart
Others may sing to spring
To them making love is an art
But when I sing, I sing to you
Straight from the shoulder, right from the heart
Who cares if others may laugh
If as a lover I’m green
Who cares, let them all laugh
Long as you know just what I mean
Old as the hills it’s true
To whisper I love you, I do
But when I say I love you, I do
And when I pray that we’ll never part
It’s Straight from the shoulder, right from the heart to you
Who cares if others may laugh
If as a lover I’m green
Who cares, let them all laugh
Long as you know just what I mean
Old as the hills it’s true
To whisper I love you, I do
But when I say I love you, I do
And when I pray that we’ll never part
It’s straight from the shoulder, right from the heart to you

Yer Blues
Yer Blues
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
Performer(s): The Beatles
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
Yes I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why
In the morning wanna die
In the evening wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why
My mother was of the sky
My father was of the earth
But I am of the universe
And you know what it's worth
I'm lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why
The eagle picks my eye
The worm he licks my bones
I feel so suicidal
Just like Dylan's Mr. Jones
Lonely wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why
Black cloud crossed my mind
Blue mist round my soul
Feel so suicidal
Even hate my rock and roll
Wanna die yeah wanna die
If I ain't dead already
Ooh girl you know the reason why

Shine (Sofia Nizharadze)
Shine
Composer(s): Hanne Margrethe Fredriksen Sørvaag - Harry Sommerdahl - Christian Leuzz
First performance by: Sofia Nizharadze - 2010
Who can ever tell the colour of a soul
And the memories we keep from long ago?
Do we ever really know each other's past?
You can't go back to before
But tomorrow will bring even more
Like the tide's gonna turn
You will know when it's cold
You're on your own, but you're never alone
Shine, shine, like the stars in the sky
Wipe your dust off your love, let it shine
So when nothing's ever really carved in stone
Remember that your heart is holding on
And when every second melts up in the past
Don't be afraid it will end
Only fear that it never began
Like the tide's gonna turn
You will know when it's cold
You're on your own, but you're never alone
Shine, shine, like the stars in the sky
Wipe your dust off your love, let it shine
You can't go back to before
But tomorrow will bring even more
Like the tide's gonna turn
You will know when it's cold
You're on your own, but you're never alone
Shine, shine, like the stars in the sky
Let it shine

Y'en a qui pourraient
Mais qui n'ont jamais fait ça
Y'en a qui voudraient et qui ne pensent qu'à ça
Y'en a qui essaient et qui n'y arrivent pas
D'autres qui font ça parfois plusieurs fois
Et puis, et puis
Y'en a qui s'en foutent,
Qui font ça n'importe comment
Y'en a qui sans doute
Ne font ça que le Jour de l'an
Y'en a que ça dégoûte
Et y'en a qui font semblant
D'autres qui s'arrêtent en route
En baillant
C'est pourtant facile
C'est pourtant facile
C'est pourtant facile
De la la la la
Y'en a qui font ça
En veste de pyjama
Y'en a qui font ça
En rentrant du cinéma
Y'en a qui font ça
Dans des endroits faits pour ça
D'autres qui font ça tout seul
Pourquoi pas
Et puis, et puis
Y a les amateurs
Qui font ça maladroitement
Y a les professeurs
Qui font ça scientifiquement
Y a les fonctionnaires
Les docteurs, les présidents
Et il y a, il y a bien sûr
Tous les gens
Qui trouvent ça facile
Qui trouvent ça facile
Qui trouvent ça facile

Straight For The Heart
Straight For The Heart
Composer(s): David Paich - Joseph Williams
Performer(s): Toto
Boy meets girl on the playground of life
Falls in love for the very first time
Late at night he sees her alone, but she's the type that can never be owned
He can't get her off his mind, but she knows he'll get over her in time
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Boy sees girl on the poor side of town
A city princess with her very own crown
He's too young to be taking such a chance
'Cause she walks the streets in the name of romance
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
It's just the only thing that she's ever known
Everywhere she goes he's there and she knows, he's just another fool who cares
And the world goes round and round
She goes straight for the heart, she serves it sweet and cold
But she goes straight for the heart
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known
'Cause that's the only thing that she's ever known

Performer(s): Ronnie & The Dirt Riders
Pack a bag baby
Won't you come along
We'll be sittin' pretty mama
Nothin' can go wrong
The sun is comin' up
And we got miles to go
Well, I'm a gonna show you just how good it feels
When we're movin' it out in a home on wheels
'Cause there's no place like home
In a yellow van
Yellow van... yellow van... yellow vaaaan...
Moving down the highway
Cruising 'cross the USA
Yellow vaaaan, yellow vaaaan
Oh, move out, move out with me in my yellow van
Well it's beat up, faded, and it ain't brand new
But when you're riding high
There's nothing it can't do
The open road's ahead
We'll leave the past behind
Got a fab (?)quad system
And it's dynamite
Got a mattress in the back
Where we can spend the night
Cause home ain't nothin' like
Livin' in a yellow van
Yellow van... yellow van... yellow vaaan...
Moving down the highway
Cruising 'cross the USA
Yellow vaaaan, yellow vaaaan
Oh, move out, move out with me in my yellow van
Bowm-de-do-be-do-wow
Why don't we move out
Bowm-de-do-be-do-wow
Why don't we,, move out
Bowm-de-do-be-do-wow
Why don't we...move out
Why don't you ride with me
Yellow vaaaan... yellow vaaaan... yellow vaaaan...
Moving down the highway
Cruisin' 'cross the USA
Yellow van, yellow van
Oh, Move out, move out with me in my yellow
Move out, move out with me in my yellow
Move out, move out with meee..
Move out, move out with me.. in my yellow
Move out, move out with me.. in my yellow
Move out, move out with me.. in my yellow

That Sounds Good To Me
That Sounds Good To Me
Composer(s): Pete Waterman - Mike Stock
First performance by: Josh - 2010
How do I begin to imagine all the happy faces I'd like to see?
The final destination, with sounds of celebration
If I could find the opportunity
So I wonder, who can I turn to?
Who can make these wishes and dreams come true?
And with you there beside me
And loving hands to guide me
Anything is possible to do
So if you bring the sunshine
I'll bring the good times
Just add your laughter
It's happy ever after
I don't know 'bout you
But that sounds good to me
I can feel it coming together
All the loving working so very well
There's nothing left to do now
Gonna see it through now
And we can let the future write itself
Baby, if you bring the sunshine
I'll bring the good times
Just add your laughter
It's happy ever after
I don't know 'bout you
But that sounds good to me
Oh...
(So if you bring the sunshine) You bring the sunshine
(I'll bring the good times) I'll bring the good times
Just add your laughter
Happy ever after
I don't know 'bout you (Sounds good to me)
I don't know 'bout you
I don't know 'bout you
But that sounds good to me
Oh... that sounds good to me

In the town where I was born
Lived a man who sailed to sea
And he told us of his life
In the land of submarines
So we sailed up to the sun
Till we found the sea of green
And we lived beneath the waves
In our yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
And our friends are all on board
Many more of them live next door
And the band begins to play
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
As we live a life of ease
Everyone of us has all we need
Sky of blue and sea of green
In our yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine

We all live in our yellow submarine
Yellow submarine, yellow submarine
We all live in our yellow submarine

Straight Down The Middle
Straight Down The Middle
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Bing Crosby; Ray Reach
Fore!
Straight down the middle
It went straight down the middle
Then it started to hook just a wee, wee bit
And that's when my caddie lost sight of it
That little white pellet has never been found to this day
But it went straight down the middle like they say
Whack down the fairway
It went smack down the fairway
Then it started to slice just a smidge off line
It headed for two but it bounced off nine
My caddie says long as you're still in the state you're okay
Yes, it went straight down the middle quite a way
The sun was never brighter
The greens were never greener
And I was never keener to play
I heard it came down the middle
It went zing down the middle
Oh, the life of a golfer is not all gloom
There's always the lies in the locker room
And I'm in my glory when wrapped in a towel I say
That it went straight down the middle today
Oh, the life of a golfer is not all gloom
Though they charge just for listenin' in the locker room
But I'm in my glory when wrapped in a towel I say
That it went straight down the middle
Where it wound up is a riddle
But it went straight down the middle far away

Yellow Rose Of Texas
Yellow Rose Of Texas
Composer(s): Don George
Performer(s): Mitch Miller;
and various other artists
There's a yellow rose of Texas
That I am going to see
No other fellow knows her
No other, only me
She cried so when I left her
It like to break my heart
And if I ever find her
We never more will part
She's the sweetest rose of color
A fellow ever knew
Her eyes are bright as di'monds
They sparkle like the dew
You may talk about your dearest May
and sing of Rosa Lee
But the Yellow Rose of Texas
Beats the belles of Tennessee
Oh, now I'm going to find her
For my heart is full of woe
And we'll sing the song together
That we sung long ago
We'll play the bajo gaily
and we'll sing the songs of yore
And the Yellow Rose of Texas
Shall be mine forevermore

Composer(s): Jeffrey Christie
First recording/First release by: The Tremeloes - 1969/1985
Covered by multiple other artists
So long, boy, you can take my place
I got my papers, I got my pay
So pack my bags and I'll be on my way ... to Yellow River
Put my gun down, the war is won
Fill my glass high, the time has come
I'm going back to the place that I love ... Yellow River
Yellow River, Yellow River ... is in my mind and in my eyes
Yellow River, Yellow River ... is in my blood, it's the place that I love
Got no time for explanations, got no time to lose
Tomorrow night you'll find me sleeping underneath the moon
And Yellow River
Cannon fire lingers in my mind
I'm so glad I'm still alive
And I've been gone for such a long time ... from Yellow River
I remember the nights were cool
I can still see the water pool
And I remember the girl that I knew ... from Yellow River

Strada Facendo
Strada Facendo
Composer(s): Claudio Baglioni
First release by: Claudio Baglioni - 1981
Io ed i miei occhi scuri siamo diventati grandi insieme
con l'anima smaniosa a chiedere di un posto che non c'è
tra mille mattini freschi di bicletta,
mille e più tramonti dietro i fili del tram
ed una fame di sorrisi e braccia intorno a me...
Io e i miei cassetti di ricordi e di indirizzi che ho perduto
ho visto visi e voci di chi ho amato prima o poi andar via
e ho respirato un mare sconosciuto
nelle ore larghe e vuote di un'estate di città
accanto alla mia ombra nuda di malinconia...
Io e le mie tante sere chiuse, come chiudere un ombrello
col viso sopra il petto a leggermi i dolori ed i miei guai
ho camminato quelle vie che curvano seguendo il vento
e dentro un senso di inutilità
e fragile e violento mi son detto tu vedrai...vedrai...vedrai..
Strada facendo vedrai che non sei più da solo
strada facendo,
troverai un gancio in mezzo al cielo
e sentirai la strada far battere il tuo cuore...
vedrai più amore....vedrai!
Io troppo piccolo fra tutta questa che c'è al mondo
io che ho sognato sopra un treno che non è partito mai
e ho corso in mezzo a prati bianchi di luna
per strappare ancora un giorno alla mia ingenuità
e giovane e invecchiato mi son detto tu vedrai,vedrai..vedrai..
...Strada facendo, vedrai, che non sei più da solo
strada facendo, troverai, anche tu
un gancio in mezzo al cielo, e sentirai la strada
far battere il tuo cuore, vedrai più amore, vedrai...
E una canzone e neanche questa potrà mai cambiar la vita
ma che cos'è che mi fa andare avanti e dire che non è
finita...cos'è che mi spezza il cuore tra canzoni e amore
e che mi fa cantare e amare sempre più
perché domani sia migliore, perché domani tu...

Performer(s): Phil Lynott; Grand Slam;
Thin Lizzy; Ultravox; Midge Ure
"We all must beware of the yellow pearl"
The Yellow Pearl control, attack, attack, attack, attack
Yellow Pearl
It is foolish to venture into strange enchanted places
If they aren't the places you want to be
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
We will arise
We will control
We will command
We will patrol
It is foolish under the guise of love and liberty
That we should capitalize and rob and fell
The poor for the socialistic tree
We will arise
We will control
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
That's what you lack
We shall arise
They will arise
We shall control
They will control
We shall command
They will command
We shall patrol
They will patrol
We must fight back
We will arise
They will arise
We will control
We are now living in a situation
Where that self same situation depends on the Yellow Pearl
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
We will arise
They will arise
We will control
They will control
We will command
They shall command
We will patrol
They will patrol
Arise
Yellow Pearl's upon us now
We must fight back
We will arise
They will arise
We will control
Attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack, attack
Is what we lack
Is what we lack
Don't trust in Liberty
To save your soul
It is genocide to let liberty lose control
Control
We must decide
Control
We the Yellow Pearl we will control
