Pesce Veloce Del Baltico


Pesce Veloce Del Baltico
Composer(s): Paolo Conte
Performer(s): Paolo Conte
Vecchi i cristalli tintinnano
nel trasandato hotel
luci sinistre han le musiche
non è il "Guglielmo Tell"
la radio situata nel angolo
di semioscurità
sembra una pagoda mongola
dell'infelicità
Da-dam, da-dam, da-dam, ...
Viaggiatori di commercio
rifuggiatisi quassù
piccioni dalle ali bagnate
la pioggia sedia e non smette più
guardano a turno il telefono
sempre impassibilie
il loro tempo si sbriciola
sembra passabile
Da-dam, da-dam, da-dam, ...
Uno dalla scala a chiocciola
scende da basso e sta
fermo sul legno che scrichiola
per la sua vetustà
sì, venditori vecchi
incantatori, suggestionatori
la strada fatta là fuori
è stata percorsa già
Da-dam, da-dam, da-dam, ...
"Pesce Veloce del Baltico"
dice il menu che contorno han
torta di mais e poi servono
polenta e baccalà
cucina povera e umile
fatta d'ingenuità
caduta nel gorgo perfido
della celebrità
della celebrità
Da-dam, da-dam, da-dam, ...

Please Speak To Me Of Love
(Adapted from: Hablemos Del Amor - 1967
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael
Please speak to me of love just one more time
Please tell me once again that you still need me
Then maybe I'll believe you and never have to leave you
Bbefore the teardrops start deep in my heart
Tell everyone you know, say you are mine
Wherever you may go, please say you love me
Qo they will know, forever we'll live out lives together
Until the end of time, we'll never part
What does it matter, what does it matter
That people say what they'll may
I don't care what they say if you love ve
What does it matter, what does it matter
That people say what they'll may
Just as long as you're here by my side, here by my side
Please speak to me of love just one more time
Please tell me once again that you still need me
Then maybe I will believe you and never have to leave you
Before the teardrops start deep in my heart
What does it matter, what does it matter
That people say what they'll may
I don't care what they say if you love me
What does it matter, what does it matter
That people say shat they'll may
Just a long as you're here by my side
What does it matter
I love you darling, my darling
I love you so much, speak to me of love

Personne Au Monde


Personne Au Monde
((Adapted from: Talkin' 'Bout You (Ray Charles) - 1958))
Composer(s): Ray Charles - Eddy Mitchell
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell - 1965
Oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh, oooh
Je ne suis rien qu'un vagabond
Fuyant à tort ou à raison
Les gens m'accusent de crime sans nom
Pour un oui ou pour un non
Personne au monde n'a de pardon
Pourtant dans mon cœur, il y a du bon
Personne au monde, oooh, oooh
N'a de pardon
N'a de pardon
Personne au monde ne veut me croire
J'en deviens fou, j'ai peur de tout
Personne au monde ne peut savoir
Combien je t'aime, waou, yé...
Personne au monde n'a su m'aimer
Tu es la seule qui peut me sauver
Personne au monde, oooh, oooh
N'a su m'aimer
N'a su m'aimer
Je ne suis rien qu'un vagabond
Pleurant à tort ou à raison
Je reste seul à l'abandon
Cherchant un chemin, une maison
Personne au monde n'a su m'aimer
Je t'en supplie, viens me consoler
Personne au monde, waou...
N'a su m'aimer
N'a su m'aimer
Nous partirons loin de ce monde
Pour nous cacher, pour nous aimer
Si tu veux de moi, chaque seconde
Deviendra une éternité
Personne au monde n'a su m'aimer
Tu es la seule qui peut me sauver
Personne au monde, waou, yé...
N'a su m'aimer
N'a su m'aimer
Personne au monde
Personne au monde...

Singing Waterfall


Singing Waterfall
Composer(s): Hank Williams
Performer(s): Hank Williams
and multiple other artists
There's a singin' waterfall
In the mountains far away
That's where I long to be
At the close of ev'ry day
That's where my sweetheart's sleepin'
Down beneath the clay
I often sit and wonder
Why the Lord took her away
We'd meet there ev'ry ev'nin'
When the sun was sinkin'low
And we'd listen to the waters
As they rippled soft and low
And since she's gone to Heaven
I miss her most of all
Tonight my darlin's sleepin'
By the singin' waterfall
Last night as I lay dreamin'
I heard my darlin' call
And then I went to meet her
By the singin' waterfall
She took me in her arms
Just like she used to do
And then I heard her whisper
We'll meet beyond the blue
We'd meet there ev'ry ev'nin'
When the sun was sinkin'low
And we'd listen to the waters
As they rippled soft and low
And since she's gone to Heaven
I miss her most of all
Tonight my darlin's sleepin'
By the singin' waterfall

Personne


Personne
Composer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
Performer(s): Serge Gainsbourg
J'ai peur de ne prendre intérêt à rien du tout
Mais à personne
Je ne m'en irai plaindre même pas à vous
Belle personne
Vous que j'aime, que j'aimerai, que j'ai aimée
Plus que personne
Vous qui faites l'innocente vous le savez
Mieux que personne
Non jamais je n'aurais dû porter la main sur
Votre personne
Il me fallait me maîtriser, être plus sûr
De ma personne
Pour qui me prenez vous, mais non je n'en dirai
Rien à personne
Croyez-moi je vous ferai passer pour une ai-
Mable personne
Bien sûr, si je vous dis tout ceci, je ne veux
Blesser personne
Ce sont là quelques vérités qui ne font de
Mal à personne
Peut-être aurais-je dû vous les dire à la troi-
Sième personne
Je reconnais que je suis assez maladroit
De ma personne
Jamais plus je n'aimerai comme je t'aimais
Ma belladone
Oui, tu m'as coûté les yeux de la tête, mais
Je te pardonne
Je ne dois et je crois bien n'avoir jamais dû
Rien à personne
Jamais je ne me suis aussi bien entendu
Qu'avec personne

Singing The Dolphin


Singing The Dolphin (aka Singing The Dolphin Through)
Composer(s): Mike Heron
First release by: Mike Heron - 1975
Covered by: Manfred Mann's Earth Band - 1976
Farewell Plymouth, your morning cold
And grey
Is painting shadows on my thoughts
And we're bound for nowhere
Joseph, I know you're trusting me to see
You right
And I know you can't stand the fighting
For one more night
Joseph, the mud gives way to coral
Somewhere
And the hours of light they last and last
We'll see no more hostile flag there
From craft unknown we will have grown free
From sighing
Singing the dolphin through
Singing the dolphin through
Singing the dolphin through
Still waters

Personality Crisis


Personality Crisis
Composer(s): David Johansen; Johnny Thunders
Performer(s): New York Dolls
Well we can't take it this week
And her friends don't want another speach
Hoping for a better day to hear what she's got to say
All about that
Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
(That's why they talk about Personality)
But now your tryin to be some no you got to do some
Wanna be someone who cow wow wows
But you think about the times you did they took every ounce
When it sure got to be a shame when you start to scream and shout
You got to contradict all those times you were butterflyin' about
(You were butterflyin')
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
And your a prima ballerina on a spring afternoon
Change on into the wolfman howlin at the moon hooowww
All about that Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
But now frustration and heartache is what you got
Now with all the crossin fingers that mother nature says
Your mirrors get jammed up with all your friends
That personality everything starts to blend
Personality when your mind starts to blend
Personality impression of a friend,
Of a friend, of a friend, of a friend, of a friend
Personality wonderin how celebrities ever met
(Look and find out on television)
Personality Crisis you got it while it was hot
Frustration and heartache is all you got, don't you worry
Personality Crisis please don't cry
It's just a Personality Crisis, please don't stop
Because you walk a Personality
Talk a Personality

Nog maar eens overdoen
Oh oh, ik heb zorgen

En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh
Ergens heel ver, ver in een denneboom
Zong toen die nachtegaal
En hij bracht mij de allerliefste droom
En die werd mij fataal

En dat verveelt me zo, oh oh oh oh

Well, I never felt more like singin' the blues

Personality (Johnny Mercer)


Personality
Composer(s): Johnny Burke; Jimmy Van Heusen
Performer(s): Johnny Mercer;
and various other artists
When Madam Pompadour was on a ballroom floor
Said all the gentlemen "Obviously,"
"The madam has the cutest personality"
And think of all the books about Du Barry's looks
What was it made her the toast of Paree?
She had a well-developed personality
(What did Romeo see in Juliet?)
(Or Figaro in Figarette?)
(Or Jupiter in Juno?)
You know!
And when Salome danced and had the boys entranced
No doubt it must have been easy to see
That she knew how to use her personality
(A girl can learn to spell and take dictation well)
(And never sit on the boss's left knee)
(Unless she's got a perfect personality)
(A girl can get somewhere in spite of stringy hair)
(Or even just a bit bowed at the knee)
(If she can show a faultless personality)
Why are certain girls offered certain things
Like sable coats and wedding rings?
By men who wear their spats right?
(That's right!)
(So don'tcha say "I'm smart and have the kindest heart"
(Or "what a wonderful sister I'd be")
Just tell me how you like my
Mercer> "Rufff!!
(Personality)
Baby, you've got the cutest
Personality!!

Anouschka


Anouschka
First performance by: Inge Brück - 1967
Musst nicht weinen, kleine Anouschka
Er kommt wieder, kleine Anouschka
Wenn der Frühling kommt, wenn die Blumen blühn
Ist er wieder bei dir
Deine Augen, kleine Anouschka
Sind voll Tränen, kleine Anouschka
Doch die Welt ist weit, es verrinnt die Zeit
Tränen trocknet der Wind
Wenn es die wahre Liebe ist
Wird alles wieder gut
Dann kommt er auch zurück
Denn er denkt an dich, immer zu an dich
Anouschka
Soviel Freude, kleine Anouschka
Wirst du haben, kleine Anouschka
Wenn der Frühling kommt, wenn die Blumen blühn
Euer Leben beginnt
Lalalala lalalala...
Lalala lalala...
Dann kommt er auch zurück
Denn er denkt an dich, immer zu an dich
An dich

Persona No Grata


Persona No Grata
Composer(s): Mario Pupparo
Performer(s): Raphael
Tú nunca cambias de música
Sólo cambias de instrumento
No hablo por boca de otros
Lo he aprendido sufriendo
Esperando a que abrieras la puerta
Y mirando tu pelo revuelto
Y tú siempre esquivando mis ojos
Y el adentro escondido en silencio
Tú engañando, yo sufriendo
Te declaro
Persona no grata
Te retiro
Mi amor por estafa
Y no voy a escuchar tus disculpas
No te creo ni media palabra
Que perdona y perdona
Aquí no hay perdón que valga
No, no, no, no
Tú nunca cambias de música
Sólo cambias de instrumento
No hablo por boca de otros
Lo he aprendido sufriendo
Esperando en la calle desierta
Y mordiendo mis uñas y el tiempo
Y tú siempre inventando pretextos
Y yo siempre callando y creyendo
Tú engañando y yo sufriendo
Te declaro
Persona no grata
Te retiro
Mi amor por estafa

Singing In The Rain
Composer(s): Arthur Freed; Nacio Herb Brown
Performer(s): Cliff "Ukelele Ike" Edwards
and multiple other artists
I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again!
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love!
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with your rain
I've got a smile on my face!
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin', singin' in the rain!
Why am I smiling and why do I sing?
Why does December seem sunny as Spring?
Why do I get up each morning to start
Happy and head-up with joy in my heart?
Why is each new task a trifle to do?
Because I am living a life full of you!
Hey, I'm singin' in the rain
Just singin' in the rain
What a glorious feeling
I'm happy again!
I'm laughing at clouds
So dark up above
The sun's in my heart and I'm ready for love!
Let the stormy clouds chase
Everyone from the place
Come on with your rain
I've got a smile on my face!
I'll walk down the lane
With a happy refrain
Just singin', singin' in the rain!

Person To Person


Person To Person
Composer(s): The Average White Band; Alan Gorrie; Hamish Stuart
Performer(s): The Average White Band
Telephone line, bad connection
And I'm half asleep
Makin' conversation with you should be easy
But it ain't
Wish you could be with me
There would be no problem
Our communication's bad
And I want to see you again
Person to person, face to face
Person to person, one to one
Person to person, touching hands
Person to person, that's what love demands
Six weeks, long time to be without you sugar
But what can I do
Working hard on the other side of the world
Might as well be on the moon
Wish that I could write it all down
And put it in a letter to you
Feelin' like I do right now
Won't make it any better to you
Just got to be
Person to person, face to face
Person to person, one to one
Person to person, we can't replace
Person to person, that's just how it gets done
Person to person, line to line
Person to person, just keepin' time

Varjoon-Suojaan


Varjoon-Suojaan
First performance by: Fredi - 1967
Varjoon alta polttavan auringon
varjoon tieltä tuskien päästävä on
Suojaan alta hehkuvan taivahan
suojaan luokse vihreän keitahan
Yllä auringon hohde
alla on polttava maa
mielessä varjoisa kohde
jonne yksin kulkea saan
Varjoon alta polttavan auringon
varjoon pian pois minun päästävä on
Suojaan alta hehkuvan taivahan
suojaan alle lehmuston tuuhean
Varjoon valokeilojen julkeain
varjoon tahdon seurasta kuuluisain
Suojaan luota polttavan rakkauden
suojaan luokse kaipauksen hiljaisen
Rauhaton eloni on vain
kaiken nyt kestää mä saan
Jo mainetta kylliksi sain
rauhaa mä kaipailen vaan
Varjoon valokeiloista tahdon pois
varjoon yksinäistä vain siellä ois
Suojaan tahdon viimeinkin rauhaisaan
silloin vasta onneni vihdoin saan

Singing A Happy Song


Singing A Happy Song
Performer(s): Dorsey Brothers Orch.
Any wonder I’m happy, any wonder I smile
If you follow my advice, you’ll never go wrong
Anyone can be happy, making living worthwhile
If you open up your heart and sing a song
The sun’s shining, there’s no hiding
Your hat’s lined with a silver lining
And you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song
You hear the birds singing and bells ringing
And you’ll find what a joy they’re bringing
‘Cause you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song
Are, are you ready now – come on and sing
Doh, ray, me, fah, soh, lah, te, it’s just the easiest thing
The sun’s shining, there’s no hiding
Your hat’s lined with a silver lining
And you’re happy when you’re singing a happy song
