Noël À Jérusalem
Noël À Jérusalem
Composer(s): Jacques Demarny; Enrico Macias
Performer(s): Enrico Macias; Mario Pelchat
Noël à Jérusalem
Près d'un mur que l'on croyait perdu
Un homme à genoux est là, il pleure à côté de moi
Et lève les yeux en remerciant le ciel
Noël à Jérusalem
Les pieds nus aux portes des mosquées
Ils sont des milliers qui viennent pour y déposer leurs peines
Le visage à terre jusqu'à la nuit tombée
Ces mains qui prient au même instant ici
N'ont-elles pas la même ferveur
Les hommes auraient-ils oubliés aussi
Que c'est Dieu qui fait battre leur cœur
Noël à Jérusalem
C'est aussi l'enfant de Bethléem
Et le pèlerin guidé par l'étoile du berger
Cherche la maison de sa nativité
Noël à Jérusalem
C'est le monde au pied de l'éternel
Qui vient implorer son nom et lui demander pardon
De s'être égaré loin des chemins du ciel
Pourtant il suffirait de voir un jour
S'élever dans une prière
Le cœur de trois hommes éperdus d'amour
Pour changer la face de la terre
Noël à Jérusalem
Près d'un mur que l'on a retrouvé
Un homme à genoux m'a dit : Tout est changé dans ma vie
Car Jérusalem est de nouveau sur terre
La première ville bénie
À qui le Seigneur a dit
Je ferai ici mon plus merveilleux Noël
À Jérusalem

Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint
Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint
Composer(s): Wayne Walker
Performer(s): Ernest Tubb; Blackstone Valley Sinners
Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint
Fooling your neighbor
That’s what you think
Reading the good book
Singing the hymns
Come Monday morning and it's back to a life of sin
‘O brother Brown
All weak he steals
Tells everyone
His big business deals
The Deacon walks by
A dollar hits the plate
Trying to buy himself a ticket to the Pearly Gate
‘O sister Rose
On the very first row
Been a sittin’ right there
Twenty years or so
Never hears a word
When the preacher speaks
Too busy talking about the bad girl down the street
Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint
Fooling your neighbor
That’s what you think
Reading the good book
Singing the hymns
Come Monday morning and it's back to a life of sin
This little song
Holds good advice
Though some people may
Think it ain’t too nice
Well if you're one
Who’s wearin’ the shoes
Well there's somebody watching and he ain’t no body’s fool
Saturday Satan, Sunday Saint
Fooling your neighbor
That’s what you think
Reading the good book
Singing the hymns
Come Monday morning and it's back to a life of sin
Come Monday morning and it's back to a life of sin

Noël
Noël
Composer(s): Jean Albertini; Jacques Denjean
Performer(s): Christophe
Un beau soir de Noël
Aujourd'hui moi je me souviens
Je me souviens d'un beau soir de Noël
J'étais tout seul je regardais le ciel
Et c'est alors que dans la nuit tombée
Le Père Noël je l'avais rencontré
Je me souviens d'un beau soir de Noël
Il faisait froid, la nuit était si belle
Et doucement en s'approchant de moi
Le Père Noël m'avait tendu les bras
J'aurais aimé ce soir
Lui dire tous mes espoirs
Mais soudain dans la nuit il est parti
Je me souviens d'un beau soir de Noël
Où j'ai rêvé que la vie était belle
Mais aujourd'hui je ne veux plus pleurer
O Père Noël je veux encore rêver

Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)
Saturday Night's Alright (For Fighting)
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1973
Covered by multiple other artists
It's getting late have you seen my mates
Ma tell me when the boys get here
It's seven o'clock and I want to rock
Want to get a belly full of beer
My old man's drunker than a barrel full of monkeys
And my old lady she don't care
My sister looks cute in her braces and boots
A handful of grease in her hair
Don't give us none of your aggravation
We had it with your discipline
Saturday night's alright for fighting
Get a little action in
Get about as oiled as a diesel train
Gonna set this dance alight
`Cause Saturday night's the night I like
Saturday night's alright alright alright
Well they're packed pretty tight in here tonight
I'm looking for a dolly who'll see me right
I may use a little muscle to get what I need
I may sink a little drink and shout out "She's with me!"
A couple of the sounds that I really like
Are the sounds of a switchblade and a motorbike
I'm a juvenile product of the working class
Whose best friend floats in the bottom of a glass

Noche De Paz, Noche De Fe
Noche De Paz, Noche De Fe
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Raphael
Noche de paz, noche de fe
El portal que hay en belen
Suenan canticos llenos de amor
Dulces canticos al redentor
Que esta noche nacio
Y es mas hermoso que el sol
Noche de paz, noche de amor
Todo duerme en derredor
Y entre sus astros que esparcen su luz
Ella anunciando al niñito jesus
Brilla la estrella de paz
Noche de paz, noche de fe
Ha nacido alla en belen
Los arcangeles vienen tambien
Van cantando alabanzas a dios
Ha nacido en belen
Porque es el hijo de dios

Saturday Night, Sunday Morning
Composer(s): Mitchell Elliot Botler; Norma Helms
Performer(s): Thelma Houston
and multiple other artists
We're fooled by first impressions
They're not always true
You thought that I was made out of ice
But I caught on fire with you
I sparkled for a moment
Then I flickered out
I couldn't feel the flame any more
But darlin' I'm feelin it now
Took such a long time to convince me
You could fill that empty space
But Saturday night is shining
On my Sunday morning face
Saturday night is shining
On my Sunday morning face
Sunlight is streaming
Thru the open window
While you're dreaming in my arms
Took such a long time to convince me
You could fill that empty space
But Saturday night is shining
On my Sunday morning face
Saturday night is shining
This is the real thing
Look at me beaming with love
Saturday night is shining
On my Sunday morning face

No Room
No Room
Composer(s): Tony Martin; Mark Nesler
Performer(s): Tracy Byrd; Rhett Akins
On a dark and cold starry night
Mary, heavy with child
Whispered to Joseph, "I can't go on anymore"
He wrapped her up in his arms
Said, "I'll find you some place warm"
But they were turned away at every door
No room, no room
Sorry, but we're too full to let you in
No space, no place for the baby Jesus
No room
Once again Christmas is here
Busiest time of the year
There's a growing list of last minute things still to do
Not many shopping days left
Still got presents to wrap
People are saying parties we've got to go to
No room, no room
Sorry, but life's too full to let you in
No space, no place for the Saviour Jesus
No room
No room, no room
Lord, help us find, help us find the room

Covered by multiple other artists
Two feets they come a creepin'
Like a black cat do
And two bodies are lyin' naked
Creeper think he got nothin' to lose
So he creeps into this house, yeah
And unlocks the door
And while a man reaching for his trousers
Shoots him full of .38 holes
It's a Saturday night special
Got a barrel that's blue and cold
Ain't no good for nothin'
But put a man six feet in a hole
Big Jim's been drinkin' whiskey
And playing poker on a losin' night
Pretty soon, Big Jim starts a thinkin'
Somebody been cheatin' and lyin'
So Big Jim commences to fightin'
I wouldn't tell you no lie
And Big Jim done grab his pistol
Shot his friend right between the eyes
It's a Saturday night special
Got a barrel that's blue and cold
Ain't no good for nothin'
But put a man six feet in a hole
Hand guns are made for killin'
Ain't no good for nothin' else
And if you like your whiskey
You might even shoot yourself
So why don't we dump 'em people
To the bottom of the sea
Before some fool come around here
Wanna shoot either you or me

(Italian Version: Torna A Casa Ragazzina Beat)
Composer(s): Garry Bonner; Alan Gordon
Performer(s): The Turtles - 1967
Some girls love to run around
Like to handle everything they see
But my girl has more fun around
And you know she'd rather be with me

Tell you why you'll understand
She don't fly although she can
Some boys love to run around
They don't think about the things they do
But this boy wants to settle down
And you know he'd rather be with you
Me-oh-my, lucky guy is what I am
Tell you why you'll understand
She don't fly although she can

Saturday Night Fish Fry
Saturday Night Fish Fry
Composer(s): Louis Jordan; Ellis Walsh
First release by: Louis Jordan - 1949
Covered by multiple other artists
If you've ever been down to New Orleans
Then you can understand just what I mean
All through the week it's as quiet as a mouse
But on Saturday night they go from house to house
You don't have to pay when you only mention
If you're a cook or a waiter or a good musician
If you just happen to be passing by
Stop in at the Saturday night fish fry
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
Now my buddy and me was on the bandstand
Fooling around, just me and him
We decided we could use something to eat
So we went to a house on Rampart Street
We knocked on the door and it opened with ease
A light-skinned miss said 'Come in, please'
Before we could even bat an eye
We was right in the middle of a big fish fry
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
Now the woman was screaming and jumping and yelling
The bottles were flying and the fish were smelling
From way up above all the noise they made
Somebody hollered 'Better get outta here, this is a raid'
I didn't know we were breaking the law
Somebody reached over and hit me on the jaw
They had locked up from the front and the back
Putting them in the wagon like potato sacks
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
I knew I could away if I had the chance
But I was shaking like I had St. Vitus' Dance
I tried to crawl under a bathtub
A policeman said 'Hey, now where you going, bud?'
They got us outta there like a house on fire
And put us all in that black mariah
They might of missed one or two
But they got both me and my buddy too
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
Well we headed for jail in a dazed condition
They booked each one of us on suspicion
My chick came down and she went my bail
Finally got me outta that rotten jail
If you ever wanna go get a fist in your eye
Just mention a Saturday night fish fry
I don't care how many fish in the sea
Don't ever mention a fish to me
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn
It was rocking, it was rocking
You never seen such scuffling and shuffling
'Til the break of dawn

Composer(s): Gretchen Peters
Performer(s): Alabama; Eric Hancock
Baby, let's make a date for a night on the town
How does the turn of the century sound
I guarantee that we'll have a good time
New Year's Eve Nineteen-Ninety-Nine
I know it sounds a bit premature
But I'm askin' you now 'cause I want to be sure
Do you have anything else in mind
New Year's Eve Nineteen-Ninety-Nine
We'll drink pink champagne from a plastic cup
Dance all night 'til the sun comes up
We'll say it's been a pretty good century
Except for that weekend in Ninety-Three
Then we'll go home to our warm winter bed
Tuck in the kids with a kiss on the head
And sing one more chorus of Auld Lang Syne
New Year's Eve Nineteen-Ninety-Nine
I'll be your sweetheart if you'll be mine
New Year's Eve Nineteen-Ninety-Nine

Saturday Night At The Movies
Composer(s): Barry Mann; Cynthia Weil
First release by: The Drifters - 1964
Well Saturday night at 8 o'clock
I know where I'm gonna go
I'm gonna pick my baby up
And take her to the picture show
Everybody in the neighbourhood
Is dressing up to be there too
And we're gonna have a ball
Just like we always do
Saturday night at the movies
Who cares what picture you see
When you're hugging with your baby in last row in the balcony
Well there's technicolor and cinemascope
A cast out of Hollywood
And the popcorn from the candy stand
Makes it all seem twice as good
There's always lots of pretty girls
With figures they don't try to hide
But they never can compare
To the girl sittin' by my side

Honey, won't you tell me
You don't want nobody else
Don't you tear my heart out
And lay it on your shelf
'Cause I really love you and it's true
I'm gonna love you, rain or come shine
And I'm gonna love you (gonna love you)
Rain or come shine (rain or come shine)
You know you're gonna find me (gonna find me)
Around you all the time(time)
'Cause I really love you and it's true
I'm gonna love you, rain or come shine
Rain or come shine

First release by: U2 - 1983
Covered by multiple other artists
Yeah...
All is quiet on New Year's Day
A world in white gets underway
I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes on New Year's Day
On New Year's Day
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
Under a blood red sky
A crowd has gathered in black and white
Arms entwined, the chosen few
The newspapers says, says
Say it's true it's true...
And we can break through
Though torn in two
We can be one
I...I will begin again
I...I will begin again
Oh...
Maybe the time is right
Oh...maybe tonight...
I will be with you again
I will be with you again
And so we're told this is the golden age
And gold is the reason for the wars we wage
Though I want to be with you
Be with you night and day
Nothing changes
On New Year's Day
On New Year's Day

Saturday In The Park
Composer(s): Robert Lamm
Performer(s): Chicago - 1972
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
I think it was the Fourth of July
People dancing, people laughing
A man selling ice cream
Singing Italian songs
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For Saturday
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
Saturday in the park
You'd think it was the Fourth of July
People talking, really smiling
A man playing guitar
Singing for us all
Will you help him change the world
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For today
Slow motion riders fly the colours of the day
A bronze man still can tell stories his own way
listen children all is not lost
all is not lost
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
Funny days in the park
Every day's the Fourth of July
People reaching, people touching
A real celebration
Waiting for us all
If we want it, really want it
Can you dig it (yes, I can)
And I've been waiting such a long time
For the day

She Was Five And He Was Ten
She Was Five And He Was Ten
Composer(s): June Barnett; Mario DiNapoli; Sherman Feller
Performer(s): The Mills Brothers; The Four Preps
She was five and he was ten
Twice as old as she was then
She was much too young for him, in puppy love
As the years went rolling by
He was fifteen and quite a guy
But she was ten, still too young for him to love
And then, as he grew older
He changed his point of view
When she was seventeen, he was only twenty-two
So he fell in love, you see
And it all began when she
Was only five and he was ten, in puppy love
And then, as he grew older
He changed his point of view
When she was seventeen, he was only twenty-two
So he fell in love, you see
And it all began when she
Was only five and he was ten,in puppy love, puppy love

and multiple other artists
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
'Cause that's the night that my sweetie and I
Used to dance cheek to cheek
I don't mind Sunday night at all
'Cause that's the night friends come to call
And Monday to Friday go fast
And another week is past
But Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
mmmm... Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
I sing the song that I sang for the memories I usually seek
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week
Until I hear you at the door
Until you're in my arms once more
Saturday night is the loneliest night in the week

När Det Lider Mot Jul
När Det Lider Mot Jul
Composer(s): Ruben Liljefors; Jeanna Oterdahl
Performer(s): Agnetha Fältskog;
and various other artists
Det strålar en stjärna förunderligt blid
i öster på himlen hon står
Hon lyst över världenes oro och strid
i nära två tusende år
När dagen blir mörk och när snön faller vit
då skrider hon närmre, då kommer hon hit
och då vet man, att snart är det jul
Ty julen är härlig för stora och små
är glädje och ljuvaste frid
är klappar och julgran och ringdans också
är lycka, oändligen blid
är ljus- allas ögon då stråla som bäst
och stjärnorna tindra som mest
och där ljuset är- där är det jul
