Più Su
Più Su
Composer(s): Renato Zero
Performer(s): Renato Zero
E poi
di colpo eccomi qua
sarei arrivato io
in vetta al sogno mio
com'è lontano ieri
e poi
più in alto e ancora su
fino a sfiorare dio
e gli domando io
signore
perché mi trovo qui se non conosco amore
sboccia un fiore malgrado nessuno lo annaffierà
mentre l'aquila fiera in segreto a morire andrà
il poeta si strugge al ricordo di una poesia
questo tempo affamato consuma la mia allegria
canto e piango pensando che un uomo si butta via
che un drogato è soltanto un malato di nostalgia
che una madre si arrende un bambino non nascerà
che potremo restare abbracciati all'eternità
e poi ti ritrovo qui
puntuale al posto tu
tu spettatore vuoi davvero
che io viva il sogno che
non osi vivere te
questa vita ti sfugge se tu non la fermerai
se qualcuno sorride tu non tradirlo mai
la speranza è una musica antica e un motivo in più
canterai e piangerai insieme a me dimmi lo vuoi tu
sveleremo al nemico quel poco di lealtà
insegneremo i perdono a chi dimenticare non sa
la paura che senti è la stessa che provo io
canterai e piangerai insieme a me
fratello mio
più su
più su
più su
ed io mi calerò
nel ruolo che ormai è mio
finché ci crederò
finché ce la farò
più su
più su
più su
fino a sposare il blu
fino a sentire che
ormai sei parte di me
più su
più su

Baby, Baby
Baby, Baby
Composer(s): Ignace Baert - Erik Marijsse
First performance by: Nicole & Hugo - 1973
Baby, baby - Wat is er nou?
Zeg me even, ben ik van jou?
Zeg het me nog wel duizend maal
Spreek van liefde in elke taal
Liefde is broos
't is net als porselein
Oh... breekt in je hand
Voor het voltooid kan zijn
Laat ons samen zijn
Baby, baby, I love you
Yo te quiero, oui mon amour
't is zo heerlijk samen te zijn
Maar het scheiden doet toch geen pijn
Toch weet ik wel een vrouw kan niets alleen
Oh... liefde gebeurt enkel met twee bij een
Laat ons samen zijn
Soms is liefde maar niet de pijn
Oh... wou je dat het anders wil zijn
Baby, baby - Wat is er nou?
Zeg me even, ben ik van jou?
Zeg het me nog wel duizend maal
Spreek van liefde in elke taal
Baby, baby, I love you
Yo te quiero, oui mon amour
't is zo heerlijk samen te zijn
Maar het scheiden doet toch geen pijn

Più O Meno
Più O Meno
Composer(s): Renato Zero
Performer(s): Renato Russo
Più vivi e meno sai
più spendi e meno hai
più o meno, sei qui
in lista anche tu...
chissà se uscirà
il tuo terno, chissà!
Più o meno umanità
più o meno libertà
chi vola, e chi no
chi vorrebbe...e non può
Ferirsi, no!
Tradirsi, no!
se poi, scopri che, il male tuo, è dentro di te
se potessi chiamare amore
la rabbia, che ho dentro me
potessi ricominciare, ricomincerei con te
Ricominciamo!
Ricominciamo!
Ho un'anima in più
più vera, di più...
se resti con me
tornerò ad essere un re!
Ricominciamo!
No! Fermarsi, no!
Fuggire, no!
Perdersi, no!
Se oscurasiomo i sentimenti
sarebbe notte, e poi...
Pianetti spenti
stelle cadenti, noi!
Fa che non sai così!

Skyline Pigeon
Skyline Pigeon
Composer(s): Elton John; Bernie Taupin
First release by: Elton John - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Turn me loose from your hands
Let me fly to distant lands
Over green fields, trees and mountains
Flowers and forest fountains
Home along the lanes of the skyway
For this dark and lonely room
Projects a shadow cast in gloom
And my eyes are mirrors
Of the world outside
Thinking of the way
That the wind can turn the tide
And these shadows turn
From purple into grey
For just a Skyline Pigeon
Dreaming of the open
Waiting for the day
He can spread his wings
And fly away again
Fly away skyline pigeon fly
Towards the dreams
You've left so very far behind
Just let me wake up in the morning
To the smell of new mown hay
To laugh and cry, to live and die
In the brightness of my day
I want to hear the pealing bells
Of distant churches sing
But most of all please free me
From this aching metal ring
And open out this cage towards the sun

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
Composer(s): Bob Merrill
Performer(s): Guy Mitchell;
Bing Crosby; Bob Hope
(There's a pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
And I walk up and down 'neath the clock
(By the pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
But I ain't got a thing left to hock
She was peaches, she was honey, and she cost me all my money
'cause a whirl 'round the town was her dream (was her dream)
Took her dancin', took her dinin' till her blue eyes were shinin'
With the sights that they never had seen (never seen)
If you should run into a golden-haired angel
And ask her tonight for a date
She'll tell you somewhere there's a rich millionaire
Who is calling again about eight
(There's a pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
And I've just gotta get five or ten (five or ten)
(From the pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
Gotta be with my angel again
She was peaches, she was honey, and she cost me all my money
'cause a whirl 'round the town was her dream (was her dream)
(Took her dancin', took her dinin' till her blue eyes were shinin')
(With the sights that they never had seen)
If you should run into a golden-haired angel
And ask her tonight for a date
She'll tell you somewhere there's a rich millionaire
Who is calling again about eight
(There's a pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
And I've just gotta get five or ten (five or ten)
(From the pawnshop on a corner in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)
Gotta be with my angel again
Gotta be with my angel again

Tom Tom Tom
Tom Tom Tom
First performance by: Marion Rung - 1973
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
I hear the music
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
That's how it goes
Music wakes me up every morning
Skylight seem to bring on the sun
Bluebirds chase my blues with the dawning
I don't mind the work to be done
Your smile makes my life worth the living
And tells me how lucky I am
To share in the love you are giving
Every day, in every way
Every city sound has a rhythm
Rhythm with the beat of my heart
Begging me to sing along with him
Telling me to give love a start
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
I hear the music
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
That's how it goes
All day long, the hurry and scurry
Tangled is the web that we weave
Let the others whisper and worry
As for me, my heart's on my sleeve
Your smile makes my life worth the living
And tells me how lucky I am
To share in the love you are giving
Every day, in every way
Nightingales all welcome the nighttime
Soothing me to sleep with their song
Your love came along at the right time
Love that keeps me singing along
Ah... Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
I hear the music
Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom Tom
That's how it goes
Yeah
Tra la la la la la la la la
Ra la la la la la la la
Ra la la la la la la la la
Ra la la la la la la la
Your smile makes my life worth the living
And tells me how lucky I am
To share in the love you are giving
Every day, in every way
Nightingales all welcome the nighttime
Soothing me to sleep with their song
Your love came along at the right time
Love that keeps me singing along
It's love that keeps me singing along

Pittsburgh Stealers
Pittsburgh Stealers
Composer(s): Larry Kingston; Jim Rushing
Performer(s): The Kendalls
Found myself in Pittsburg
Working in the steal mill
An' I was a southern girl
Who's husband did the same
But he pulled the night shift
And I worked the day shift
And it came too easy
For us to play the game
They could call us, the Pittsburg Stealers
Stealing half of us, and cheatin' on a time or two
We both know the score, but we run back for more
And tonight, the Pittsburg Stealers played again
Mornin' will find us
With a night of love behind us
On a back street of Pittsburg
Time after time
Just "touch and go" lovers
Runnin' for cover
And ev'ry time we meet
We're layin' it all along the line
They could call us, the Pittsburg Stealers
Stealing half of us, and cheatin' on a time or two
We both know the score, but we run back for more
And tonight the Pittsburg Stealers played again
And tonight the Pittsburg Stealers played again

Skylark
Composer(s): Hoagy Carmichael; Johnny Mercer
First recording/First release by: Gene Krupa & His Orch. (vocal: Anita O'Day) - 1941/1942
Covered by multiple other artists
Skylark
Have you anything to say to me?
Won't you tell me where my love can be?
Is there a meadow in the mist
Where someone's waiting to be kissed?
Skylark
Have you seen a valley green with spring?
Where my heart can go a journeying
Over the shadows and the rain
To a blossom covered lane
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music of the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
Skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there
And in your lonely flight
Haven't you heard the music in the night?
Wonderful music
Faint as a will o' the wisp
Crazy as a loon
Sad as a gypsy serenading the moon
Oh, Skylark
I don't know if you can find these things
But my heart is riding on your wings
So if you see them anywhere
Won't you lead me there

Pistols 'N' Petticoats
Pistols 'N' Petticoats
Composer(s): George Tibbles; Jack Elliot
Here's the legend about the Hanks in Pistols 'n' Petticoats
Henrietta could fire a gun with one hand milkin' the goat
And hit a coyote on the run in Pistols 'n' Petticoats
The story goes that grandma was the best
(At shootin' buttons off a rustler's vest)
Shootin' buttons off a rustler's vest.
Grandpa kept his gun in trim
(Nobody messed around with him)
Nobody messed around with him
Chasin' bandits for them was fun from Bristol to Terre Haute
Everyone in the west would run from Pistols 'n' Petticoats
That's the legend about the Hanks just the way she was wrote
They kept busy protectin' banks in Pistols 'n' Petticoats

The Skye Boat Song
The Skye Boat Song
Composer(s): Ali McLeod
Performer(s): The Corries
and multiple other artists
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Loud the winds howl, loud the waves roar
Thunder clouds rend the air
Baffled, our foe's stand on the shore
Follow they will not dare
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Though the waves leap, soft shall ye sleep
Ocean's a royal bed
Rocked in the deep, Flora will keep
Watch by your weary head
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Many's the lad fought on that day
Well the claymore could wield
When the night came, silently lay
Dead on Culloden's field
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye
Burned are our homes, exile and death
Scatter the loyal men
Yet, e'er the sword cool in the sheath
Charlie will come again
Speed bonnie boat, like a bird on the wing
Onward the sailors cry
Carry the lad that's born to be king
Over the sea to Skye

Pistolet Jo ne dort que d'un oeil
L'autre reste toujours ouvert

Celui d'à coté est en verre

M'a tapé dans l'oeil
Mais un jour il m'a trompé
Pistolet Jo tu n'l'as pas volé
La balle qui t'as éborgné
Oh oh oh oh
Pistolet Jo
Pistolet Jo quand il t'fait d'l'oeil
Tu ne peux lui résister
Pistolet Jo est irrésistible
Avec son grand oeil crevé
Oh oh oh oh

Na, nana, nanananana
Wat zal ik doen om nog vandaag van jou te zijn, aha
Na, nana, nanananana
Wat zou je doen om nog vandaag van mij te zijn?
Hé, moet ik orgineel zijn of is dat nog te vroeg?
Doe jij maar gewoon, dat's gek genoeg
Na, nana, nanananana
't Is nog de vraag, ben ik van jou of jij van mij?
Ach, wat is 't moeilijk om een eerlijk mens te zijn
Als 't om versieren gaat
Je kunt niet altijd zeggen wat je werkelijk voelt
Je bent bang dat je een flater slaat
Ja, mensen, doe gewoon, we doen al gek genoeg
Vooral als 't om liefde gaat
Na, nana, nanananana
Wat zal ik doen om nog vandaag van jou te zijn, mmm-mmm
Na, nana, nanananana
Wat zou je doen om nog vandaag van mij te zijn?
O, moet ik orgineel zijn of is dat nog te vroeg?
Doe jij maar gewoon, dat's gek genoeg

't Is nog de vraag, ben ik van jou of jij van mij?
Ach, wat is 't moeilijk om een eerlijk mens te zijn
Als 't om de liefde gaat
Je kunt niet altijd zeggen wat je werkelijk voelt
Je bent bang dat je een flater slaat
Ja, mensen, doe gewoon, we doen al gek genoeg
Vooral als 't om liefde gaat

Sky Pilot
Sky Pilot
Composer(s): John Weider; Victor Briggs; Barry Jenkins; Eric Burdon
First release by: The Animals - 1968
Covered by multiple other artists
He blesses the boys as they stand in life
The smell of gun grease and their bayonets they shine
He's here to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted he's a good holy man
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly
You'll never never never reach the sky
He smiles at the young soldiers
Tells them it's all right
He knows of their fears in the forthcoming fight
Soon there'll be blood and many will die
Mother and fathers back home they will cry
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly
You'll never never never reach the sky
He humbles a prayer and it ends with a smile
The order is given they move down the line
But he'll stay behind and he'll meditate
But it won't stop to bleeding or is the hate
As the young men move out into the battle zone
He feels good with god you're never alone
He feels so tired and he lays on his bed
Hopes the men will find courage
In the words that he's said
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly
You'll never never never reach the sky
You're soldiers of god you must understand
The fate of your country is in your young hands
May god give you strength do your job really well
If it all was worth in only time it will tell
In the morning they returned with tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies
A young soldier so it looks at the sky bright
Remember the words thou shalt not kill

Pissin' In The Wind
Pissin' In The Wind
Composer(s): Jerry Jeff Walker
Performer(s): Jerry Jeff Walker
Chorus:
Pissin' in the wind, bettin' on a losing friend
Makin' the same mistakes, we swore we'd never make again
And we're pissin' in the wind, but it's blowing on all our friends
We're gonna sit and grin and tell our grandchildren
About the time I called this Guy it was four in the morning
Teach me the words to the song I was humming
He just laughed and he said that the ole grey cat is sneakin' down the hall
But all he wants to know is who in the hell is paying for the call
Chorus
Now this Nunn called me up, it was eight in the morning
Wanted to know how in the world am I doin'
He just laughed and he said get together boy, and fall on by the house
Some Gonzo buddies would like to play anything your's picking now
Chorus
Now we worked and we suffered and struggled
Makin' our record till we got it right
Now we're waiting on the check to come sneaking down the hall
Like that old time feeling
That we never should have ever put the record out at all
Chorus
That the answer my friend is just pissin' in the wind
The answer is pissin' in the sink

(Dutch Version: Zonder Jou - 2006)
Composer(s): Leo Leandros; Klaus Munro; Yves Dessca
First performance by: Vicky Leandros - 1972
Tu t'en vas
L'amour a pour toi
Le sourire d'une autre
Je voudrais mais ne peux t'en vouloir
Désormais
Tu vas m'oublier
Ce n'est pas de ta faute
Et pourtant tu dois savoir
Qu'après toi
Je ne pourrai plus vivre, non plus vivre
Qu'en souvenir de toi
Après toi
J'aurai les yeux humides
Les mains vides, le cœur sans joie
Avec toi
J'avais appris à rire
Et mes rires ne viennent que par toi
Après toi je ne serai que l'ombre
De ton ombre
Après toi
Même une jour si je fais ma vie
Si je tiens la promesse
Qui unit peut-être pour toujours
Après toi
Je pourrai peut-être
Donner de ma tendresse
Mais plus rien de mon amour
Après toi
Je ne pourrai plus vivre, non plus vivre
Qu'en souvenir de toi
Après toi
J'aurai les yeux humides
Les mains vides, le cœur sans joie
Avec toi
J'avais appris à rire
Et mes rires ne viennent que par toi
Après toi je ne serai que l'ombre
De ton ombre
Après toi

Nena no te vayas
quisiera obligarte a ser feliz
y no puedo...
tengo miedo, inútil ocultarlo
basta ya, maldito corazón...
Cada vez que sueñes
cada vez que sueñes yo estaré
soñándote...
y en un árbol del jardín de los deseos
grabaremos el símbolo
de Pisanlov!
Lov, todo el mundo quiere Pisanlov!
Lov, se mata y se muere Pisanlov!
Lov, psicodelicadamente amor...
Luna tu que la puedes ver
dile que lo hice sin querer
queriendo que 2 más 2 sumen 5
la ironía de un mundo distinto
Lov, todo el mundo quiere Pisanlov!
Lov, se mata y se muere Pisanlov!
Lov, psicodelicadamente amor...
Lov, Lov
Yo quiero vivir en la utopía
que algún día... Pisanlov!!!
Lov, todo el mundo quiere Pisanlov!
se mata y se muere Pisanlov!

Performer(s): Garry Hagger - 2006
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu, 'k zit ermee
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu
Eeuwig, ik zei 'dit is voor eeuwig'
'k Zweerde trouw tot de dood
In voorspoed en nood zou ik bij je zijn
Maar eeuwig duurde niet zo lang
En ik werd bang, dat jij niet van me hield
Dus ik liet je even gaan
Had ik beter niet gedaan
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu, 'k zit ermee
Zonder jou speel ik toch echt niet mee
Maar wat nu, ohoh
'k Wilde weer een keertje vrij
Maar nu wil ik jou bij mij
Want toen was het beter
Wij hier met z'n twee
Beter, met jou was zoveel beter (zoveel beter)
Maar je weet hoe het gaat, spijt komt te laat
Dat zie ik nu
En nu weet ik pas, toen jij er was
Had ik het naar m'n zin
Waarom liet ik jou toch gaan
Had ik beter niet gedaan
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu, 'k zit ermee
Zonder jou speel ik toch echt niet mee
Maar wat nu, ohoh
'k Wilde weer een keertje vrij
Maar nu wil ik jou bij mij
Want toen was het beter
Wij hier met z'n twee
Weet je, mis jij mij ook een beetje
Kom dan vlug naar me toe
'k Ben 't alleen zijn zo moe
Ik wil je bij me
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu, 'k zit ermee
Zonder jou speel ik toch echt niet mee
Maar wat nu, ohoh
Want toen was het beter
Wij samen, wij samen
Zonder jou was niet zo'n goed idee
Maar wat nu, 'k zit ermee
Zonder jou speel ik toch echt niet mee
Maar wat nu, ohoh
Had ik jou nu maar bij mij
Dan liet ik je nooit meer vrij
En dan wordt het beter
Wij samen, wij hier met z'n twee
