Det Kimer Nu Til Julefest
Det Kimer Nu Til Julefest
Composer(s): Nikolai Frederick Severin Grundtvig - Carl C.N. Balle
Performer(s): Stig Rossen; Anne-Charlotte Harvey
Det kimer nu til julefest
det kimer for den høje gæst
som steg til lave hytter ned
med nytårsgaver: fryd og fred
O, kommer med til Davids by
hvor engle sjunger under sky
o, ganger med på marken ud
hvor hyrder hører nyt fra Gud!
Og lad os gå med stille sind
som hyrderne til barnet ind
med glædestårer takke Gud
for miskundhed og nådesbud!
O Jesus, verden vid og lang
til vugge var dig dog for trang
for ringe, om med guld tilredt
og perlestukken, silkebredt
Men verdens ære, magt og guld
for dig er ikkun støv og muld
i krybben lagt, i klude svøbt
et himmelsk liv du har mig købt
Velan, min sjæl, så vær nu glad
og hold din jul i Davids stad
ja, pris din Gud i allen stund
med liflig sang af hjertens grund!
Ja, sjunge hver, som sjunge kan
Nu tændes lys i skyggers land
og ret som midnatshanen gol
blev Jakobs stjerne til en sol!
Nu kom han, patriarkers håb
med flammeord og himmeldåb
og barnet tyder nu i vang
hvad David dunkelt så og sang
Kom, Jesus, vær min hyttegæst
hold selv i os din julefest
da skal med Davidsharpens klang
dig takke højt vor nytårssang!

It's Only Rock And Roll
It's Only Rock And Roll
Composer(s): Mick Jagger; Keith Richards
First release by: The Rolling Stones - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists
If I could stick a pen in my heart
I would spill it all over the stage
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would you think the boy is strange?
Ain't he strange?
If I could win ya, if I could sing ya a love song so divine
Would it be enough for your cheating heart
If I broke down and cried?
If I cried?
I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do
Oh, well, I like it, I like it
I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely
If I could stick a knife in my heart, suicide right on stage
Would it be enough for your teenage lust
Would it help to ease the pain?
Ease your brain?
If I could dig down deep in my heart feelings would flood the page
Would it satisfy ya, would it slide on by ya
Would ya think the boy's insane?
He's insane
I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do
Oh, well, I like it, I like it
I said can't you see that this old boy has been a lonely
And do ya think that you're the only girl around?
I bet you think that you're the only woman in town
I said I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it
I know it's only rock'n roll but I like it, like it, yes I do
Oh, well, I like it, I like it

People see us everywhere
They think you really care
But myself I can't deceive
I know it's only make believe
My one and only prayer is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true, my one and only you
No one will ever know how much I love you so
My only prayer will be someday you'll care for me
But it's o-only make believe
My hopes, my dreams come true, my life I'd give for you
My heart, a wedding ring, my all, my everything
My heart I can't control, you rule my very soul
My only prayer will be someday you'll care for me
But it's o-only make believe
My one and only prayer, is that some day you'll care
My hopes, my dreams come true, my one and only you
No one will ever know how much I love you so
My prayer, my hope, and my schemes, you are my every dream

It's Only Love
Composer(s): Ritchie Cordell; M. Levy; S. Trimachi
Tommy James & The Shondells
You can’t laugh, you can’t cry
Your actin’ kinda funny and you don’t know why
'Cause your heart keeps beatin’ like a big bass drum
And the beat's gettin’ strong and it’s so much fun
And you keep on singin’ but the words are wrong
And you can’t stop laughin’, baby what’s goin’ on
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through
You can’t run, you can’t hide
No matter what you do you're on a ten cent ride
Goin’ up, down baby and it’s so much fun
And your heart keeps beatin’ like a big bass drum
And the beat's gettin’ strong and it just won’t quit
Better hold on baby, 'cause you know that
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through
It’s only love, tryin’ to get through

Hostess with the Mostes' on the Ball
Hostess with the Mostes' on the Ball
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
Performer(s): Ethel Merman
I was born on a thousand acres of Oklahoma land
Nothing grew on the thousand acres for it was gravel and sand
One day, father started digging in a field, hoping to find some soil
He dug and he dug and, what do you think?
Oil, oil, oil
The money rolled in and I rolled out
With a fortune piled so high
Washington was my destination
And now, who am I?
I'm the chosen party giver
For the White House clientele
And they know that I deliver
What it takes to make 'em gel
And in Washington I'm known by one and all
As the hostess with the mostest on the ball
They would go to Elsa Maxwell
When they had an axe to grind
They could always grind their axe well
At the parties she designed
Now the hatchet grinders all prefer to call
On the hostess with the mostest on the ball
I've a great big bar and good caviar
Yes, the best that can be found
And a large amount in my bank account
When election time comes round
If you're feeling presidential
You can make it, yes indeed
There are just three things essential
Let me tell you, all you need
Is an ounce of wisdom and a pound of gall
And the hostess with the mostest on the ball
Entertaining vodka drinkers
Is a job they give to me
Making nice guys out of stinkers
Seems to be my cup of tea
What they really need behind the iron wall
Is the hostess with the mostest on the ball
There's a book of regulations
As to who sits next to who
But there might be complications
When the blue blood's not so blue
So the priestess with the leastest protocol
Is the hostess with the mostest on the ball
An ambassador has just reached the shore
He's a man of many loves
An important gent from the Orient
To be handled with kid gloves
He can come and let his hair down, ooh!
Have the best time of his life
Even bring his new affair down
Introduce her as his wife
But she mustn't leave her panties in the hall
Of the priestess with the leastest
Nor the hostess with the mostest
With the mostest on the ball

It's Only Love
Composer(s): John Lennon; Paul McCartney
First release by: The Beatles - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
I get high when I see you go by
My oh my
When you sigh, my, my inside just flies
Butterflies
Why am I so shy when I'm beside you?
It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love, and that is all
But it's so hard loving you
Is it right that you and I should fight
Ev'ry night?
Just the sight of you makes night time bright
Very bright
Haven't I the right to make it up girl?
It's only love and that is all
Why should I feel the way I do?
It's only love, and that is all
But it's so hard loving you
Yes it's so hard loving you -- loving you

Performer(s): Def Leppard
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
If you could feel what I feel
If I could make you see
If you could need like I need
I'd be the air that you breathe
You go straight to my head as I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't help the state I'm in
It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love then why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too
Na na na na na na na na na
Na na na na na na na na na
If you could share my wildest thoughts
Meet me in my mind
If you could want the way that I want
You'd want me all the time
You go straight to my head when I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't stop the state I'm in
It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love then why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too
Every dream I dream has got you in
And every minute with you means everything
I wanna take you there where you've never been
In my dreams
You go straight to my head as I lie in my bed
I just can't win
I can't help the state I'm in
It's only love so why is falling in it
The one thing that you can't do
It's only love so why am I hurting from it
It's only love if you're hurting too
Na na na na na na na na na
It's only love if you're hurting too
Na na na na na na na na na
It's only love if you're hurting too

December Will Be Magic Again
December Will Be Magic Again
Composer(s): Kate Bush
Performer(s): Kate Bush; Christmas All Stars
December will be magic again
Take a husky to the ice
While Bing Crosby sings White Christmas
He makes you feel nice
December will be magic again
Old Saint Nicholas up the chimney
Just a-popping up in my memory
Ooh, dropping down in my parachute
The white city, she is so beautiful
Upon the black-soot icicled roofs
Ooh, and see how I fall
See how I fall
("Fall!")
Like the snow
Come to cover the lovers
(Cover the lovers
But don't you wake them up)
Come to sparkle the dark up
(Sparkle the dark up
With just a touch of make-up)
Come to cover the muck up
(Cover the muck up
Ooh, with a little luck)
December will be magic again
Light the candLe-lights
To conjure Mr. Wilde
Into the Silent Night
Ooh, it's quiet inside
Here in Oscar's mind
December will be magic again
Don't miss the brightest star
Kiss under mistletoe
I want to hear you laugh
Don't let the mystery go now
Ooh, dropping down in my parachute
The white city, she is so beautiful
Upon the black-soot icicled roofs
Ooh, and see how I fall
See how I fall
("Fall!")
Like the snow
Come to cover the lovers
(Cover the lovers
But don't you wake them up)
Come to sparkle the dark up
(Sparkle the dark up
With just a touch of make-up)
Come to cover the muck up
(Cover the muck up
Ooh, with a little luck)
Oh, I'm coming to cover the lovers
Ooh, and I'm coming to sparkle the dark up
Ooh, and I'm coming to cover the muck up

It's Only Love (Ariel)
It's Only Love
Composer(s): Glyn Mason
Performer(s): Ariel
Sun sets in the evenin'
Like a stone in a wishing well
I hear the birds callin' on the wind softly
Like a chinese temple bell
Now it's only love (it's only love)
It's only love (it's only love) that makes it well
Man wakes in the mornin'
And tells a woman he's got to go
In her eyes he sees some kinda demon
What it is, he don't exactly know
It's only love (it's only love)
It's only love (it's only love) that makes it so
It's funny how people rebel
And spend their lives just runnin' away
We hide ourselves in our little shells
But you have to stop runnin' someday......aye......aye
Now it's only love (it's only love)
It's only love (it's only love) that makes it so
There's not much more to this story
Like a river flows on and on
It was here long before we started
It'll be here long after we're gone
Now it's only love (it's only love)
It's only love (it's only love)
Goes on and on, goes on and on
Now it's only love (it's only love)
It's only love (it's only love)
Goes on and on

December Time
December Time
Composer(s): Walter Grieve
Performer(s): Robert Goulet
When the air is filled with twinkling bells
And the trees are white with crusty shells
When the frost is on the windowpane
It's December time again
When the snowflakes cover up the sky
And little faces breathe a happy sigh
Old man winter's here to entertain
It's December time again
The mistletoe that's growing
Will soon be picked for showing
That lovers like this season of the year
Those sleigh rides so exciting
The fancy colored lighting
Are certain signs the yule tide's growing near
When the woodman fells the evergreen
And little carollers appear upon the scene
And the heaven's echo their refrain
It's December time again

It's Only A Shanty In Old Shanty Town (aka In A Shanty In Old Shanty Town)
Composer(s): Little Jack Little; Ira Schuster; John Siras; Joe Young
Performer(s): Ted Lewis
and multiple other artists
I'm up in the world
but I'd give the world to be where I used to be
A heavenly nest
where I rest the best
means more than the world to me
It's only a shanty
in old Shanty Town
the roof is so slanty it touches the ground
But my tumbled down shack by an old railroad track
like a millionaire's mansion is calling me back
I'd give up a palace if I were a king
It's more than a palace, it's my everything
There's a queen waiting there with a silvery crown
in a shanty in old Shanty Town

December The 25th
December The 25th
Composer(s): Leslie Bricusse
Of all the days in all the year
that I'm familiar with
There's only one that's really fun
December the 25th
Correct!
Ask anyone called Robinson
or Brown or Jones or Smith
Their favorite day
And they will say
December the 25
Correct!
December the 25th, me dears
December the 25th
The dearest day in all the year
December the 25th!
Correct!
At times we're glad to see the backs
of all our kin and kith
But there's one date we celebrate
December the 25th
Correct!
At times our friends may seem
devoid of wit and pith
But all of us are humorous
December the 25th
Correct!
December the 25th, me dears
December the 25th
The dearest day in all the year
December the 25th!
Correct!
If there's a day in history
that's more than any myth
Beyond a doubt one day stands out
December the 25th
Correct!
I don't hear any arguments
So may I say forthwith
I wish that every day could be
December the 25th
December the 25th, me dears
December the 25th
The dearest day in all the year
December the 25th!
Correct!

Performer(s): Paul Whiteman & His Orch. - 1933
and multiple other artists
I never feel a thing is real
When I'm away from you
Out of your embrace
The world's a temporary parking place
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
A bubble for a minute
Mmm, mm, mm, mm
You smile, the bubble has a rainbow in it
Say, it's only a paper moon
Sailing over a cardboard sea
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Yes, it's only a canvas sky
Hanging over a muslin tree
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me
Without your love
It's a honky-tonk parade
Without your love
It's a melody played in a penny arcade
It's a Barnum and Bailey world
Just as phoney as it can be
But it wouldn't be make-believe
If you believed in me

December
December
Composer(s): Peter Kater - Kenny Loggins
Performer(s): Kenny Loggins
Once upon a dream
Moonlit wings come into view
Winter casts her spell
And all the world is born anew
A child sees a star through a window
He knows with all his heart
That wonder is coming
Waiting....Hoping....Believing
Only in December
Are hearts so full or feel more alone
Could it be the same
For everyone
Only in December
Can the broken heart feel so alive
And the autumn ashes
Become the fires of December
Can I be inside and out of the cold
Still I know
December always leads me home
I still believe in magic
Always leads me home
And I still believe in miracles, ummm yes
Still believe in Christmas
I still believe in love

Some day, it won’t be long
