Sois Heureux


Sois Heureux
Composer(s): Domenico Modugno - Bruno Zambrini
Performer(s): Dalida



N'aies pas peur
Va je ne me tuerai pas pour si peu va
Moi
N'aies pas peur
Moi aussi je saurai bien t'oublier va
Toi
C'est ainsi
Qu'on ne peut jamais revivre un amour mort
Bien mort
Jettons-lui
Un dernier bouquet de roses
Pour l'adieu, l'adieu

Ah dans ton regard ce n'est plus moi que je vois
Ce n'est plus moi que tu retiens dans tes bras
Pars si tu m'aimes encore un peu
Et sois heureux

C'est fini
Et ni toi ni moi jamais n'y pourrons rien
Plus rien
C'est fini
Et mourra aussi la rose demain matin

Ah où sont les mots que je voudrai te donner
Où sont les mots que voudrai te crier
Mais je ne sais que dire adieu
Et sois heureux

N'aies pas peur
Va je ne me tuerai pas pour si peu va
Moi
N'aies pas peur
Pars sans crainte avec une autre
Et sois heureux, et sois heureux
Et sois heureux

Prière Païenne


Prière Païenne
Composer(s): Jacques Brel
Performer(s): Jacques Brel



N'est-il pas vrai Marie
Que c'est prier pour vous
Que de lui dire je t'aime
En tombant à genoux
N'est-il pas vrai Marie
Que c'est prier pour vous
Que pleurer de bonheur
En riant comme un fou
Que couvrir de tendresse
Nos païennes amours
C'est fleurir de prières
Chaque nuit chaque jour

N'est-il pas vrai Marie
Que c'est chanter pour vous
Que semer nos chemins
De simples poésies
N'est-il pas vrai Marie
Que c'est chanter pour vous
Que voir en chaque chose
Une chose jolie
Que chanter pour l'enfant
Qui bientôt nous viendra
C'est chanter pour l'enfant
Qui repose en vos bras

N'est-il pas vrai Marie?
N'est-il pas vrai Marie?

Pride Of Man


Pride Of Man
Composer(s): Hamilton Camp
Performer(s): Quicksilver Messenger Service



Turn around
go back down
back the way you came
Can't you see that flash of fire ten times brighter than the day?
And behold a mighty city broken in the dust again
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again

Turn around
go back down
back the way you came
Babylon is laid to waste, Egypt's buried in her shame
The mighty men are all beaten down, their kings are fallen in the ways
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again

Turn around
go back down
back the way you came
Terror is on every side, lo our leaders are dismayed
For theose who place their faith in fire, their faith in fire shall be repayed
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again

Turn around
go back down
back the way you came
And shout a warning unto the nation that the sword of God is raised
Yes, Babylon, that mighty city, rich in treasures, wide in fame
Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again

The meek shall cause your tower to fall, make a new pyre of flame
Oh you who dwell on many waters, rich in treasures, wide in fame
you bow unto your God of gold, your pride of might shall be a shame
For only God can lead His people back unto the Earth again

Oh God, Pride of Man, broken in the dust again
A Holy mountain be restored, and mercy on that people, that people...

Le ramier roucoule
Le moineau pépie
Caquette la poule
Jacasse la pie

Et le hibou hue
Râle la panthère

Hulule la chouette
Bêle la brebis
Le crapaud coasse
Piaule le poulet

Cajole le geais

Le cerf brame, l'âne
Brait, le lion rugit
Cancane la cane
Le taureau mugit
Le dindon glouglotte
Et braille le paon
La caille margotte
Siffle le serpent
Toi, toi, toi
Toi, sois belle et tais-toi

You are my pride and joy

Les Soirs D'été


Les Soirs D'été
Composer(s): Michel Fugain - Brice Homs
Performer(s): Michel Fugain



Viens ma brune, viens là ma douce
On va se la couler douce
Sous les tamarins

Viens la belle, la vie commence
On va se faire des avances
Dans les bleus marins

On traîne un peu
Tous seuls, à deux
Et si tu lèves les yeux
Une étoile file et tu fais un vœu

Les soirs d'été
Sont comme une musique
Mi gimmy mi reggae...
Les soirs d'été
Ont un parfum magique
Un goût sucré - salé

Assis sous la lune en terrasse
On va se manger des glaces et
Regarder passer

Le palais des soirs de vacances
Qui t'invite à la danse
Et pas cadencé

On reste un peu
Tous seuls à deux
Et si je regarde mieux
T'as encore du soleil au fond des yeux

Les soirs d'été
Sont comme une musique
Mi gimmy mi reggae...
Les soirs d'été
Ont un parfum magique
Un goût sucré - salé

Les soirs d'été
Sont comme une musique
Mi gimmy mi reggae...
Les soirs d'été
Ont un parfum magique
Un goût sucré - salé

Les soirs d'été
Sont comme une musique
Mi gimmy mi reggae...
Les soirs d'été
Ont un parfum magique
Un goût sucré - salé

Pride (In The Name Of Love)


Pride (In The Name Of Love)
Composer(s): U2
Performer(s): U2



One man come in the name of love
One man come and go
One man come, he to justify
One man to overthrow

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

One man caught on a barbed wire fence
One man he resist
One man washed on an empty beach
One man betrayed with a kiss

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love

(nobody like you...)

Early morning, April 4
Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride

In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love
In the name of love
What more in the name of love...

Når regnen bare siler ned
Så har jeg tændt for color TV et
Humphrey Bogart og Björn fra Wimbledon
Jeg har det hele på video-bånd

Susanne rejste hjem igår
Ja til sin mor i Klampenborg
Alt det TV har gjort hende spiltergal
Hun siger jeg ikke er helt normal

Omvæd:
Video Video (Video)
Den kører nat og dag
Video Video (Video)
Når jeg skal slappe af
Bare et tryk på knappen
Ja, så er der gang i kassen
(Ååååh) Jeg er Video-man!

Mine venner syntes det går for vidt
At sidde og glo på alt det skidt
Jeg er da ligeglad, for mig er det bare sagen
At se på video hele dagen

Video Video (Video)
Den kører nat og dag
Video Video (Video)
Når jeg skal slappe af
Bare et tryk på knappen
Ja, så er der gang i kassen
(Ååååh) Jeg er Video-man!

Pride


Pride
Composer(s): Irene Stanton; Wayne Walker
Performer(s): Ray Price;
and various other artists



You know that you're doin' lots of things that ain't right
You're out with a different party almost every night
And you're makin' me look like a crazy fool
So, why do I have these doubts about leavin' you

Because my heart tells me stay, but my pride tells me go
But, how can I leave you when I love you so
Which way should I turn, I'd sure like to know
My heart tells me stay, but my pride tells me go

I'd be so much better off to drive you from my mind
And make you a mem'ry that I'd like to leave behind
I know that these heartaches are what you will put me thru
So, why do I have these doubts about leavin' you

Because my heart tells me stay, but my pride tells me go
But, how can I leave you when I love you so
Which way should I turn, I'd sure like to know
My heart tells me stay, but my pride tells me go

Versions In Other Languages: 1966 - La Terre Promise (by Richard Anthony) 1978 - Kalajoen Hiekat (by Tapani Kansa) 2009 - California Dreaming (Russian Version) (by Mumiy Troll)



Cielo grigio su
cielo grigio su
Foglie gialle giù
foglie gialle giù
Cerco un po’ di blu
cerco un po’ di blu
Dove blu non c’è
Dove blu non c’è
Sento solo freddo
sento tanto freddo
Fuori e dentro me
fuori e dentro me
Ti sogno California
sogno California
E un giorno io verrò
Entro in Chiesa e là
Io cerco di pregar
Ma il mio pensiero invece va
mio pensiero va
Ritorna sempre là
torna sempre là
Al sole caldo che vorrei
caldo sole che
Che qui non verrà mai
che qui non verrà mai
Ti sogno California
sogno California
E un giorno io verrò
Cielo grigio su
cielo grigio su
Foglie gialle giù
foglie gialle giù
Cerco un po’ di blu
cerco un po’ di blu
Dove blu non c’è
Dove blu non c’è
So che partirei
so che partirei
Ti sogno California
sogno California
E un giorno io verrò
sogno California…

Pretzel Logic

Performer(s): Steely Dan;

I would love to tour the southland
In a travelling minstrel show
Yes I’d love to tour the southland
In a traveling minstrel show
Yes I’m dying to be a star and make them laugh
Sound just like a record on the phonograph
Those days are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time
I have never met Napoleon
But I plan to find the time
’cause he looks so fine upon that hill
They tell me he was lonely, he’s lonely still
Those days are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah

I stepped up on the platform
The man gave me the news
He said, you must be joking son
Where did you get those shoes?
Where did you get those shoes?

Well, I’ve seen ’em on the tv, the movie show
They say the times are changing but I just don’t know
These things are gone forever
Over a long time ago, oh yeah

Él (Lucia)


Él
Composer(s): Ignacio Román - Francisco Cepero
First performance by: Lucia - 1982



Ven, tengo libre de ocho a diez
Nos podemos divertir y tomarnos una copa

Él es igual que un perro fiel
Pero te prefiero a ti
Aunque digan que estoy loca

Él ejerce de hombre serio
Tú te lo tomas a risa
Él pretende ser mi dueño
Tú me llamas y me olvidas
Pero te prefiero a ti

Él me perdona porque es un pedazo de buen pan
Y me trata con paciencia

Sé que no debo ser cruel
Que le debo confesar que él a mí, no me interesa

Él ejerce de hombre serio
Tú te lo tomas a risa
Él pretende ser mi dueño
Tú me llamas y me olvidas
Pero te prefiero a ti

Él dice que ya cambiaré
Que le tengo que buscar cuando siente la cabeza

Ven, tengo libre de ocho a diez
Luego tengo que estudiar
Y pensar quién me interesa

Él ejerce de hombre serio
Tú te lo tomas a risa
Él pretende ser mi dueño
Tú me llamas y me olvidas
Pero te prefiero a ti

Él dice que ya cambiaré
Que le tengo que buscar cuando siente la cabeza

Ven, tengo libre de ocho a diez
Luego tengo que estudiar
Y pensar quién me interesa

Él ejerce de hombre serio
Tú te lo tomas a risa
Él pretende ser mi dueño
Tú me llamas y me olvidas
Pero te prefiero a ti

Pretty World


Pretty World
Composer(s): Antonio Adolfo; Alan Bergman;
Marilyn Bergman; Tiberio Gaspar
Performer(s): Sergio Mendes;
and various other artists



Why don't we take a little piece of summer sky
Hang it on a tree
For that's the way to start to make a pretty world
For you and for me

And for the sun we'll take a lemon bright balloon
You can hold the string
Oh can't you see that little world of ours will be
The prettiest thing

We can gather rain enough for the stream
To hold our happy faces
When we want a breeze, I'll blow you a kiss or two
Take me in your arms and our little world
Will be the place of places
Nothing left to make but breakfast and love

We'll hang a little sign that just says Paradise
Population two
For that's the way to start to make a pretty world
For me and for you
For you
It's what I wanted to do, to do
To make a world.....for you

Sognando E Risognando


Sognando E Risognando
Composer(s): Lucio Battisti - Mogol Audio 2
Performer(s): Lucio Battisti; Formula 3



La stalla con i buoi
per cielo gli occhi tuoi
e l'acqua e i pesci e poi
gli uccelli intorno a noi
e latte tu berrai
e l'anima bianca tu avrai
e dopo cena nei boschi correrai
poi ansimante nel letto tu sarai
e il sonno poi giungerà
fermando
il tuo sorriso a metà
e corro ce la farò
un'altra coda oh no
e veder ora si può
che strada prendo non so
Nervosa tu sarai
sul marciapiede mi aspetterai
il ristorante fa il turno oppure no
stasera al cinema in piedi non starò
prendo un calmante
così stanotte dormo oh si
Uomo se corri un pò ce la fai
ho quasi ancora un minuto
uomo ora vicino tu sei
io sono quasi arrivato
uomo ora sei giunto da lei
anche il posteggio ho trovato
la stalla con i buoi
per cielo gli occhi tuoi

There's no point in asking you'll get no reply
Oh just remember I don't decide

You'll always find us out to lunch

Oh, we're so pretty
Oh so pretty
We're vacant

Don't ask us to attend 'cos we're not all there
Oh don't pretend 'cos I don't care
I don't believe illusions 'cos too much is real
So stop your cheap comment 'cos we know what we feel

Si Tu Aimes Ma Musique


Si Tu Aimes Ma Musique
(Dutch Version: Ren Je Rot Voor Je Leven - 2002)
Composer(s): Ronny Brack - Bob Baelemans - Fred Beekmans
First release by: Stella - 1982



C'est si doux le matin se lever en musique
Ça rend un peu fou, mais le réveil est plus euphorique
Elle te suit partout pendant toute la journée
Et tous tes ennuis s'envolent aussitôt en fumée

Si tu aimes ma musique, chante-la avec moi
Si tu veux danser, personne ne t'empêchera
N'est-elle pas magnifique? Chante à pleine voix
Fais qu'elle fasse vibrer le monde tout entier

La chanson, c'est ce qu'il y a de plus fantastique
Aussi nous chantons sur toutes les surfaces géographiques
Le bonheur se trouve souvent dans une musique
Et la bonne humeur, c'est comme une fleur vraiment magique

Si tu aimes ma musique, chante-la avec moi
Si tu veux danser, personne ne t'empêchera
N'est-elle pas magnifique? Chante à pleine voix
Fais qu'elle fasse vibrer le monde tout entier

Si tu aimes ma musique, chante-la avec moi
Si tu veux danser, personne ne t'empêchera
N'est-elle pas magnifique? Chante à pleine voix
Fais qu'elle fasse vibrer le monde tout entier

Let me buy you a wedding ring

Ren Je Rot Voor Je Leven


Ren Je Rot Voor Je Leven
(Adapted from: Si Tu Aimes Ma Musique - 1982)
Composer(s): Ronny Brack - Bob Baelemans - Fred Beekmans
Performer(s): M-Kids - 2002



soms is't net
of je leven echt geen cent meer waard is
je kijkt links en rechts
't lijkt alsof het oorlog in je straat is
'k vraag me af
of dadt iets van tijdelijke aard is
ga ik straks naar bed
droom ik dat het morgen weer voorbij is

als je een auto ziet komen
blijf daar dan niet staan
loop zo gauw je hem ziet
of je haalt je 18 niet
ren je rot voor je leven
of 't is zo voorbij
loop zo hard je kan
of je krijgt ervan

duik vlug weg
als er weer zo'n auto aan komt scheuren
't is geluk of pech
kruis je vingers
't zal je maar gebeuren
haast en spoed
is niet goed dat heb ik moeten leren
maar zij zijn een deugd
hoe moet je je anders nog verweren

als je een auto ziet komen
blijf daar dan niet staan
loop zo gauw je hem ziet
of je haalt je 18 niet
ren je rot voor je leven
of 't is zo voorbij
loop zo hard je kan
of je krijgt ervan

Pretty Shitty Days


Pretty Shitty Days (aka My Young And Troubled Days)
French Title: Mes Emmerdes
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour



Those were the days, hungry days, needing more, having less
I learned the game, wanting fame, and success
I left behind, as I climbed, as I raced against time
My old pals, my sweet gals, and my pretty shitty days

Those early years, selfish years, full of me, full of schemes
A foolish mind, running blind, chasing dreams
The bridges burned, bridges crossed, were the way that I lost
My old pals, my sweet gals, and my pretty shitty days

Crazy times I shared with all my pals
Burning love I made with all my gals
And the shitty days I now recall
Never could have been really so heavy at all

I'm very proud, proud of myself
Hah, and why not, why not, I've done well
Got my health, my wealth, what the hell
Known by all, life is bliss, but inside I still miss
My pals, my gals, my pretty shitty days

All the careless days of fooling 'round
Weighing up the balance I have found
That those shitty days I now recall
Never could have been really so heavy at all

Those were the days, crazy days, crazy ways, gay parade
The times we crashed, getting smashed, getting laid
We had the steam, had a ball, had a dream, had it all
My old pals, my sweet gals, and those pretty shitty days

Oh yes, ah yes, I remember, it was absolutely marvelous
Fantastic, with my, my pals, my beautiful gals
And those pretty shitty days
