Joyride (Ray Wylie Hubbard)
Joyride
Composer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
Performer(s): Ray Wylie Hubbard
Y' understand I was not lookin' whereby to fall in love
I'd come downtown to check out a band
at The Continental Club
A Mamie Van Doren-lookin' woman come in the door
She was untamed youth rebellion and truth and so much more
I don't know if she had seen the light, she seemed at home in the dark
Her eyes met mine and it was like the time they split the atom apart
She could have had any biker in the bar but she come up to me
She said "You're done sleeping around, from now on you're with me"
Y' understand I did not know if this was my last or my lucky day
She said "You wanna go for a joy ride or you wanna stay here and pray"
I thought about my choices and I guess I could have said no
But it was just a band I'd come to see, so I mumbled "Let's go"
She had an old Camaro--naugahyde tuck and roll
She said "You can't live down in Texas if you don't have a lot of soul"
The stereo was blasting "Mendocino" by Doug Sahm
She said "Fasten your seatbelt, you're with me from now on"
Understand I was not sleeping at the next day's sunrise
Me and this joy ride angel were up all night it's no surprise
When we got to her house she said "Go on and take off your shoes
I don't smoke afterwards I prefer to listen to blues"
"I know you're an old roots rocker and that's a compliment
When she said "Do you want to hear some Slim Harpo," I knew she was heaven sent
In her fine presence is where I want to be
I'm done sleeping around, from now on she's with me...

Tonight's The Night
Tonight's The Night
Composer(s): Neil Young
First release: Neil Young - 1975
Covered by multiple other artists
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van
A sparkle was in his eye
But his life was in his hands
Well, late at night when the people were gone
He used to pick up my guitar
And sing a song in a shaky voice
That was real as the day was long
Tonight's the night, yes it is, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, yes it is, tonight's the night
Early in the mornin' at the break of day
He used to sleep until the afternoon
If you never heard him sing
I guess you won't too soon
'Cause people let me tell you
It sent a chill up and down my spine
When I picked up the telephone
And heard that he'd died out on the mainline
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Bruce Berry was a working man
He used to load that Econoline van
Well, early in the morning at just about the break of day
He used to sleep until the afternoon
Tonight's the night, yes it is, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night
Tonight's the night, tonight's the night

I Hear Music
Composer(s): Burton Lane; Frank Loesser
First performance: Peter Lind Hayes, Eddie Quillan, Frank Jenks & Robert Paige - 1940
Covered by multiple other artists
I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stair
Sure that's music
Mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right near by
There's my favourite melody
You, my angel, phoning me
I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song
I hear music
Mighty fine music
The murmur of a morning breeze up there
The rattle of the milkman on the stair
Sure that's music
Mighty fine music
The singing of a sparrow in the sky
The perking of the coffee right near by
There's my favourite melody
You, my angel, phoning me
I hear music
Mighty fine music
And anytime I think my world is wrong
I get me out of bed and sing this song

Joyride (Havana 3 A.M.)
Joyride
Composer(s): Nigel Dixon; Gary Myrick; Paul Simonon
Performer(s): Havana 3 A.M.
Stolen car jumps red lights
Twisted wire sparks new life
Need no keys, hot wire that car
Hijack and blow
Hijack and blow
And go like
Speeding under city lights
Highway winding through the night
Burn that fuel, speed up that motion
Joyride that car
Joyride that car
And don't get
Wheels are sliding
Speeds exciting
Ride like lightning
Crash like thunder...
Headlights sweep the road
Burning through the avenue
Hit the brakes, don't lose control
Joyride that car
Joyride that car

Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
It seems the natural thing to do
Tonight, no one's gonna find us
We'll leave the world behind us
When I make love to you
Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And hope that deep inside you'll feel it too
Tonight, our spirits will be climbing
To a sky lit up with diamond
When I make love to you tonight
Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
Tonight, there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do is to get close to you tonight
Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And soon this ol' world will seem brand new
Tonight, we will both discover how friends turn into lovers
When I make love to you
Tonight, I celebrate my love for you
And that midnight sun is gonna come shining through
Tonight, there'll be no distance between us
What I want most to do is to get close to you
Tonight, I celebrate my love for you

First release by: The Supremes - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
You've given me a true love
and every day I thank you love
For a feeling that's so new
So inviting, so exciting
Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
A tender melody
Pulling me closer
Closer to your arms
Then suddenly, I hear a symphony
Ooh, your lips are touching mine
A feeling so divine
'Till I leave the past behind
I'm lost in a world
Made for you and me
Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Play sweet and tenderly
Every time your lips meet mine now baby
Baby, baby
You bring much joy within
Don't let this feeling end
Let it go on and on and on
Now baby, baby
Those tears that seem my eyes
I cry not for myself
But for those who never felt the joy we felt
Whenever you're near
I hear a symphony
Each time you speak to me
I hear a tender rap so dy of love now
Baby, baby
As you stand holding me
Whispering how much you care
A thousand violins fill the air
Now baby, baby
Don't let this moment end
Keep standing close to me
Ooh, so close to me, baby, baby
Baby, baby
I hear a symphony
A tender melody

Joy To The World (Three Dog Night)
Joy To The World
Composer(s): Hoyt Axton
Performer(s): Three Dog Night
Jeremiah was a bullfrog
Was a good friend of mine
I never understood a single word he said
But I helped him a-drink his wine
And he always had some mighty fine wine
Singing...
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls now
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
If I were the king of the world
Tell you what I'd do
I'd throw away the cars and the bars and the war
Make sweet love to you
Sing it now...
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
You know I love the ladies
Love to have my fun
I'm a high life flyer and a rainbow rider
A straight shooting son-of-a-gun (oh yeah)
I said a straight shooting son-of-a-gun
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the world
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls now
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
I wanna tell you
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls
Joy to the fishes in the deep blue sea
Joy to you and me
Joy to the world
All the boys and girls

Composer(s): Michael Masser - Gerry Goffin - Christill
Performer(s): Sandra Kim & Frank Galan - 1997
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Gewoon omdat ik zoveel van je hou
Vannacht, niemand kan ons vinden
Ver weg van alle vrienden
En ik beminde jou
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Vannacht beloofde ik je eeuwige trouw
Vannacht was ik in hoger sferen
En stierf wel duizend keren
Want ik beminde jou, vannacht
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Het was middernacht, toch voelde ik de ochtend al
Vannacht kwam jij voor 't eerst in mijn leven
Wat kan er mooier zijn dan dicht bij jou te zijn
Vannacht
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
En zie hoeveel ik nu van je hou
Vannacht. Eerst waren wij nog vrienden
Nu zijn we twee beminden
En ik beminde jou
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou
Het was middernacht, toch voelde ik de ochtend al
Vannacht kwam jij voor 't eerst in mijn leven
Wat kan er mooier zijn dan dicht bij jou te zijn
Vannacht bekende ik mijn liefde voor jou, vannacht

I Hear A Sweet Voice Calling
Composer(s): Bill Monroe
Performer(s): Bill Monroe
and multiple other artists
Our little girl taken sick one evening
As she walked home from school
And in her death bed soon bring her
It made us so sad and so blue
Then she called me close to her bedside
And whispered these words soft and low
"Tell Mommy to come to me quickly
I want to kiss you both then go"
I hear a sweet voice calling
Way up in heaven on high
God has made room for you daughter
Oh Mommy and Daddy don't cry
Take care of my little brother
Tell him I've gone to rest
I know his little heart is broken
He's all that you have left
Then she closed her eyes forever
Never to see us no more
Until we meet our darling
On that bright and peaceful shore

Joy
Joy
Composer(s): Harry Nilsson
Performer(s): Harry Nilsson
The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Come here, I’m going to make you my Joy Boy”
Well, things went good, things went bad
Now every time I think of Joy it makes me sad
It makes me ... sad
The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Roy, I’m going to make you my Joy Boy”
Well, she took me for a ride, sort of a joy ride
Now every time I think of Joy, I get all weird inside
Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow
Now, if you haven’t got an answer, you’d never have a question
And if you never had a question, then you’d never have a problem
But if you never had a problem, well everyone would be happy
But if everyone was happy, there’d never be a love song
Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow
The other day, I met a girl named Joy
She said, “Come here, I’m going to make you all clammy inside”
Well, things went good, things went bad
Things went good and things went bad
Good, bad, good, bad, good, bad
Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow
Joy to the world was a beautiful girl
But to me Joy meant only sorrow

Tonight You're Mine
Composer(s): Jim Capaldi
Performer(s): Jim Capaldi
Your wedding was so fine, a thousand people drinking champagne and wine
Your daddy smiled as he gave your hand away
All your friends got you fixed in place
I can see by the sad look on your face
that your heart is dying to fly away
Tonight you're mine
I'm gonna love you tell the end of time
Tonight we're gonna take it all the way
Tonight you're mine
This thing we're feeling girl
it ain't no crime you know
There's gonna be a brighter day
The time has come for you to make that final run
Pack a suitcase - get out the door
Sometimes you gotta be cruel to be kind
Sometimes you gotta leave it all behind
Well you don't need it any more
Tonight you're mine
I'm gonna love you tell the end of time
Tonight we're gonna take it all the way
Tonight you're mine
This thing we're feeling girl
it ain't no crime you know
There's gonna be a brighter day

and multiple other artists
And when I hear you call
so softly to me
I don't hear a call at all
I hear a Rhapsody
And when your sparkling eyes
are smiling at me
Then soft through the starlit skies
I hear a rhapsody
My days are so blue
when you're away
My heart longs for you
so won't you stay
My darling, hold me tight
and whisper to me
Then soft through a starry night
I'll hear a rhapsody

Jovens Tardes De Domingo
Jovens Tardes De Domingo
Composer(s): Roberto Carlos; Erasmo Carlos
Performer(s): Roberto Carlos
Eu me lembro com saudade o tempo que passou
O tempo passa tão depressa mas em mim deixou
Jovens tardes de domingo
Tantas alegrias
Velhos tempos, belos dias
Canções usavam formas simples pra falar de amor
Carrões e gente numa festa de sorriso e cor
Hoje os meus domingos são doces recordações
Daquelas tardes de guitarras
Sonhos e emoções
O que foi felicidade me mata agora de saudade
Velhos tempos, belos dias
Vejam só que festa de arromba
Outro dia eu fui parar
Vinha voando no meu carro
Quando vi pela frente
Na beira da calçada
Um broto displicente

Jours De Lumière
Jours De Lumière
Composer(s): Salvatore Adamo
Performer(s): Salvatore Adamo
En ce temps là nous aurions décroché la lune
Pour gagner l'tour gratuit au manège de la vie
Nous flânions en chemin, nous chantions pour des prunes
Cueillant de ci de là le sourire d'une fille
C'était encore le temps des émotions primaires
On s'emplissait les yeux d'un couché de soleil
Nous n'avions ni le goût, ni le sens des affaires
Mais un sens de la vie qui n'a plus son pareil
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumières
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
En ces jours de lumière
C'était aussi le temps des amitiés sans faille
Prêts pour tous les départs ensemble à l'arrivée
Nous étions deux amis et qu'importait la taille
Nous étions deux géants, nous étions une armée
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
En ces jours de lumière
Nous avions tous les pouvoirs
Dans nos solitudes d'or
Nous gardions tous nos espoirs
Nous ne rampions pas encore
En ces jours de lumière, en ces jours de lumière
En ces jours de lumière...
Et nous passions les nuits à retoucher le monde
Et au petit matin, nous avions tout compris
Nous avions les idées, nous avions la faconde
Tout devait être beau, il suffisait d'un "si"
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires
Comme avant, comme avant
En ces jours de lumière
J'aimerais tant retrouver
Les parfums oubliés
Des bonheurs ordinaires

You belong - to somebody new
But Tonight you belong to me...

We're apart - you're part of my heart...

But tonight you belong to me...
Way down way down along the stream...
How very very sweet it will seem...
Once more just to dream in the silvery moonlight...

With the dawn... that you will be gone...
But tonight you belong to me...
Just to little old me...

I Hear A Call To Arms
I Hear A Call To Arms
Composer(s): Sam Coslow; Al Siegel
Performer(s): Dorothy Lamour
When you blow that horn you thrill me
To the marrow of my bones you chill me
There it goes, I hear a call to arms
La-de-da-de-da
Oh the bliss each note expresses
Reaching out to me like soft caresses
There it goes, I hear a call to arms
And even though you go
And this romantic glow may fade
One dream you'll never sever
`cos when you're gone
I'll hear your serenade
Echoing in my heart forever
Blow it, slow and low and tender
Let my soul respond in sweet surrender
There it goes, I hear a call to arms
And even though you go
And this romantic glow may fade
One dream you'll never sever
`cos when you're gone
I'll hear your serenade
Echoing in my heart forever
Blow it, slow and low and tender
Let my soul respond in sweet surrender
There it goes, I hear a call to arms
