Millennium Of Love


Millennium Of Love
Composer(s): Gerry Simpson - Raymond J. Smyth
First performance by: Eamonn Toal - 2000



Nature's child lays beside a mother's broken heart
We stand denied the power and glory
Bitterness can't feed the hungry, hate just leaves us cold
It's time to change it

I lit a candle in a dream I thought I heard
Liberated voices crying freedom
Open hearts, open doors in truth and honesty
Let wisdom be the guiding light

Celebrate the new millennium of love
Where our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe we all have the answer

A cloud can hide a mountain
And a face can hide the pain
Search until you find the answer
There is no reason
Who can understand man's inhumanity to man?

Celebrate the new millennium of love
Where our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe, I believe, I believe, I believe in you

(Celebrate the new millennium of love)
Let our footprints leave a harvest for the children
Somewhere on our journey lies a world beyond compare
I believe we all have the answer
I believe we all have the answer

Heartbreak Hill


Heartbreak Hill
Composer(s): Emmylou Harris; Paul Kennerley
Performer(s): Emmylou Harris;
Albert Lee; Kate MacKenzie



Long long time ago when we were young
You swore to me I would be the one
I would be the one you loved
But we had to part
You asked me to wait for you
To keep you in my heart
To keep you in my heart

Night after lonely night I'm waiting for you still
High above the lights of town here on Heartbreak Hill

Now maybe I am the foolish kind to think of you so long
Have you found another love
Am I still the one
Am I still the one for you
But you're far away
Do you ever dream of coming back to me someday
Back to me someday

Night after lonely night I'm waiting for you still
High above the lights of town here on Heartbreak Hill

On Heartbreak Hill alone at night
I think of how you held me tight
And wonder if I ever will see you again
On Heartbreak Hill

Oh Lord if I only could go back in time enough
I'd hold you in my arms again
Never let you go
Never let you go my love
And leave me far behind
High upon this lonely hill were you swore to be mine
You swore to be mine

Night after lonely night I'm waiting for you still
High above the lights of town here on Heartbreak Hill
Night after lonely night I'm waiting for you still
High above the lights of town here on Heartbreak Hill
Here on Heartbreak Hill
Here on Heartbreak Hill

Spanish Dancer


Spanish Dancer
Composer(s): Steve Winwood - Will Jennings
Performer(s): Steve Winwood



I can feel the heat, no one has to tell me
It's so good, once it starts I'll never let go
I can feel the beat like a Spanish dancer
Under my feet, making the world go 'round, I can't come down
You can't hold me when I get to feeling this way
It's all over, I'm inside that music that's playing
It takes me out across the wall
It makes my life a carnival
I go out on the street and take my chances
Don't even have to ask, I know the answers

Tina Arena; The Replacements; Micheal Vaccaro



Girl, when I'm alone with you
I get a feelin' through and through

And I don't care what's up or down
'Cause deep in my soul, I'm out of control
When I start to hear the sound of

Chorus:
A heartbeat, it's a lovebeat
And a lovebeat is a good vibration
Oh, a heartbeat is a lovebeat
And when we meet , it's a good sensation

Listen to my heart pound
Listen to my love sound
Feel it gettin' stronger
Can't hold back any longer

Heartbeat, it's a lovebeat
And a lovebeat is a good vibration
Oh a heartbeat it's a lovebeat
And when we meet, it's a good sensation
Listen

Pictures pass before my eyes
Like a vision in disguise
Tryin' to explain the way I feel
And there's a movement in my mind
Like a rhythm counting time
Breakin' down all my defenses
Overcomin' all of my senses

Listen to my heart pound
Listen to my love sound
Temp'rature is risin'
Girl, there's no disguisin'

My Star


My Star
Composer(s): Reynard Cowper
First performance by: Brainstorm - 2000



My friends gonna call me: "Hey dreamer, the stars you are watching are so far"
Tonight, I know, I will get there by plane or by bus - right to my star
Pretend there are things you just don't know in spite someone's told you are so cute
You have to ask and I will show the snow in the summer or so, so

If my star would fall or disappear at all
I will follow my star till the end of my days
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways
And if you're gonna join me, I'll be your guide
Baby, never say never, be my runaway-bride

My friends gonna tell me: "Just calm down, the clouds you are walking are so high"
This is my chance, and I'll invite all the dreamers and lovers to fly, fly
I'm back from the future, life goes on, but still, I remember my promise
You have to ask and I will show the snow in the summer or so, so

If my star would fall or disappear at all
I will follow my star till the end of my days
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways
And if you're gonna join me, I'll be your guide
Baby, never say never, be my runaway-bride, yeah

My runaway-bride, hey hey hey... hey yeah...

If my star would fall or disappear at all
I will follow my star till the end of my days
And my heart's gonna lead me through so many ways
And if you're gonna join me, I'll be your guide
Baby, never say never, be my runaway-bride

Ah... hey... my runaway...

Heartbeat (Ruby Murray)


Heartbeat
Composer(s): J. Stevens
Performer(s): Ruby Murray



Hear it, hear it, hear my heartbeat
Pounding, pounding like a drum
Louder, louder, goes my heartbeat
As nearer, and nearer, and nearer you come
So hurry, hurry, says my heartbeat
Take me, touch me, make me thrill
Faster, faster, goes my heartbeat
I try but I can’t keep it still

They say when a heart beats too wildly
That it breaks like a toy balloon
But darling, that’s putting it mildly
Compared to what will happen to me
If something doesn’t happen soon

Listen, listen, to my heartbeat
Crying, sighing, breathlessly
Tell it, tell it, tell my heartbeat
That your heart beats for me

Listen, listen, to my heartbeat
Crying, sighing, breathlessly
Tell it, tell it, tell my heartbeat
That your heart beats for me

Harlequin


Harlequin
Composer(s): Garry Broker
Performer(s): The Hollies



Harlequin has lost his crown
Look they say "a broken clown"
Yesterday he ruled the world
Now he's crying to be heard
Yesterday he called the tune
Now he's howling at the moon
Harlequin has broken down
Harlequin, Harlequin has lost his crown

Harlequin has broken loose
Slipped the knot and skipped the noose
Can those bloodhounds find his trail?
Will they send him back to jail?
Can those bloodhounds find his scent?
Will they find out where he went?
Harlequin cannot be found
Harlequin, Harlequin has gone to ground

Harlequin is back on top
Now his fame will never stop
See him shown from coast to coast
He's the one they love the most
See them slap him on the back
How they love his every crack
Harlequin we knew you'd do it
Harlequin, Harlequin

Harlequin (repeat)

Spanish Boots


Spanish Boots
Composer(s): Jeff Beck - Rod Stewart - Ron Wood
First release by: Jeff Beck - 1969



I used to work and take a salary
In a hole up near a foundry
But it did not take me too long
To get my boots on a "So Long!"
Long Spanish boots on a "So Long!"

I took a day job in Bethlehem
I nearly threw in the towel then
But it did not take me too long
To get my boots on a "So Long!"
High Spanish boots on a "So Long!"
Dig it

I took a Spanish haberdashery
Restored with 15th century tapestry
But oh, Mr. Nesbitt got the best of me
So I strapped on my boots and said "So Long!"
Laced up my high boots and "So Long!"
Goodbye

... am on a job you see
'Cause my old boots they mean too much to me
Leather boots are just a mystery
Put on my boots and said "So Long!"
High Spanish boots on and "So Long!"
Put on my boots and said "So Long!"

Those old Spanish boots
Put on my boots and said "So Long!"
High spanish boots

Heartbeat (Buddy Holly)


Heartbeat
Composer(s): Bobby Montgomery; Norman Petty
Performer(s): Buddy Holly



Heartbeat why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat why does a love kiss stay in my memory?
Pitity-pat, I know that new love thrills me
I know that true love will be

Heartbeat why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Heartbeat why do you skip when my baby's lips meet mine?
Heartbeat why do you flip then give me a skip beat sign?
Pitity-pat, and sing to me love stories
And bring to me love's glory

Heartbeat why do you miss when my baby kisses me?

Harlem Spagnolo


Harlem Spagnolo ((Adapted from: Spanish Harlem (Ben E. King) - 1961)) Composer(s): Jerry Leiber - Phil Spector Performer(s): Dalida - 1961

Versions In Other Languages: 1961 - Nuits D'espagne (Dalida) 1961 - Der Joe Hat Mir Das Herz Gestohlen (Dalida) 1961 - Aquella Rosa (Dalida) 1964 - Das Ist Die Frage Aller Fragen (Cliff Richard)



La,la,la...

Laggiù nell'harlem di Spagna
C'è una rosa molto rara
E un fiore strano assai
Il sol non vede mai
Fiorisce solo se la luna corre in ciel ed ogni stella brilla
E cresce nella via ma dolcissima
Delicata nel chiaro
Di luna

Laggiù nell'Harlem di Spagna
C'è una rosa molto rara
Son neri gli occhi suoi
Che ruban l'anima
E san bruciare con il fuoco dell'amor chi osi darle
Un becio
Nessun la puo comprar
Per vedela sbocciar
Nel suo
Giardino

La, la, la...

Stasera l'Harlem di Spagna
Ha una rosa innamorata
Ho ritrovato in te
Un sogno splendido
E la mia bocca stà narrandoti tesor la vera storia mia
Stanotte sol per te
Quel fior sboccierà
E di te sarà la luna

La, la, la...

A Little Bit


A Little Bit
Composer(s): Luca Genta - Gerrit aan 't Goor
First performance by: Nina Åström - 2000



I'm in love with the place where I was born
Where I lived my life in harmony with every new dawn
I'm in love with the people that I know
With whom I share my tears of laughter, the times I feel low

It's a little bit of love, it's a little love I need
To keep me going, keep me smiling
It's love that makes me breathe
It may be Finland, France or Spain
Berlin, Prague or Rome
It's the place where you live
Where your heart feels at home

There's a world that is bigger than my own
Where they strive to try and unify, to dull monotone
Every change that really matters comes from within
When in love we stand together through thick and thin

It's a little bit of love, it's a little love we need
To keep us going, keep us smiling
It's love that makes us breathe
It may be Amsterdam or Bern
Sweden or U.K.
Where your heart is at home
You will feel okay

(It's a little bit of love), it's a little love we need
To keep us going, keep us smiling
It's love that makes us breathe
It's a little bit of love, it's a little love we need
To keep us going, keep us smiling
It is love that makes us breathe

To keep us going, keep us smiling
It is love that makes us breathe

Heart Attack And Vine


Heart Attack And Vine
Composer(s): Tom Waits
Performer(s): Screamin' Jay Hawkins;
and various other artists



Liar, liar with your pants on fire
White spades hanging on the telephone wire
Gamblers reevaluate along the dotted line
You'll never recognize yourself on heartattack and vine
Doctor, lawyer, beggar man, thief
Philly Joe Remarkable looks on in disbelief
If you want a taste of madness you'll have to wait in line
You'll probably see someone you know on heartattack and vine
Boney's high on china white
Shorty found a punk
Don't you know there ain't no devil?
That's just God when he's drunk
Well, this stuff'll probably kill you lets do another line
What you say you meet me down at heartattack and vine
See that little jersey girl in the see-through top,
With the pedal pushers, suckin' on a soda pop
Well I'll bet that she's still a virgin
But it's only twenty-five to nine
You can see a million of 'em on heartattack and vine
Better off in Iowa against your scrambled eggs
Then crawlin' down Cahuenga on a broken pair of legs
You'll find your ignorance is blissful ev'ry goddamn time
You're waiting for the RTD on heartattack and vine
Boney's high on china white
Shorty found a punk
Don't you know there ain't no devil?
That's just God when he's drunk
Well, this stuff'll probably kill you lets do another line
What you say you meet me down at heartattack and vine

Spanish Bombs


Spanish Bombs
Composer(s): Joe Strummer - Mick Jones
First release by: The Clash - 1979
Covered by multiple other artists



Spanish songs in Andalucia
The shooting sites in the days of '39
Oh, please, leave the vendanna open
Fredrico Lorca is dead and gone
Bullet holes in the cemetery walls
The black cars of the Guardia Civil
Spanish bombs on the Costa Rica
I'm flying in a DC 10 tonight

Spanish bombs, yo tequierro y finito
Yote querda, oh mi corazon
Spanish bombs, yo te quierro y finito
Yo te querda, oh mi corazon

Spanish weeks in my disco casino
The freedom fighters died upon the hill
They sang the red flag
They wore the black one
But after they died it was Mockingbird Hill
Back home the buses went up in flashes
The Irish tomb was drenched in blood
Spanish bombs shatter the hotels
My senorita's rose was nipped in the bud

Spanish bombs, yo tequierro y finito
Yote querda, oh mi corazon
Spanish bombs, yo te quierro y finito
Yo te querda, oh mi corazon

The hillsides ring with "Free the people"
Or can I hear the echo from the days of '39?
With trenches full of poets
The ragged army, fixin' bayonets to fight the other line
Spanish bombs rock the province
I'm hearing music from another time
Spanish bombs on the Costa Brava
I'm flying in on a DC 10 tonight
Spanish songs in Andalucia, Mandolina, oh mi corazon
Spanish songs in Granada, oh mi corazon

Heartaches By The Number


Heartaches By The Number
((German Version: Ich Zähle Täglich Meine Sorgen (by Peter Alexander))
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
Performer(s): Ray Price - 1959
and multiple other artists



Heartache Number One was when you left me
I never knew that I could hurt this way
Heartache Number Two was when you came back again
You came back and never meant to stay
Now I've got heartaches by the number
Troubles by the score
Everyday you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the number
A love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end
Heartache Number Three was when you called me
And told me you was coming to stay
With hoping heart I waited for your knock on the door
I waited but you must have lost your way
Now I've got heartaches by the number
Troubles by the score
Everyday you love me less
Each day I love you more
Now I've got heartaches by the number
A love that I can't win
But the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end
Ah the day that I stop counting
That's the day my world will end

Harlem Nocturne


Harlem Nocturne
Composer(s): Earle Hagen
Performer(s): Mel Tormé



A nocturne for the blues played on a broken heart string
It's wailing out the news my baby is gone from me
Dark shadows in the rain, a telephone that won't ring
Just memories remain of lovers that used to be
I miss the laughs and the fun, my spot in the sun
When I was the one one and only
The music and lights, those wonderful nights
The morning is the time we'd kiss
The laughs and the fun, my days in the sun
They're over and done, and I'm lonely
Don't ask me to hide the heartbreak inside
The gleam - ing spark is gone, the light went dark
This nocturn for the blues took all and left me nothing
Nothing but the blues 'til baby comes back to me

When Spirits Are Calling My Name


When Spirits Are Calling My Name
Composer(s): Peter Dahl - Linda Jansson - Thomas Holmstrand
First performance by: Roger Pontare - 2000



I am caught in a trap, there is no turning back, I'm finally facin' the fear
The sky is on fire, and up with the flames, my hope and my dreams disappear
So bring me the power, I'll be the king of the land and the seas
Show me the way to go, let me fight with my body and soul

Let me be the native son with freedom in my heart
Life will never be the same when spirits are calling my name
My name...

Let me out of the darkness, the shadow of pain, and I'm keepin' my promise to you
My people, my spirit, the home of my heart - you're with me wherever I go
So bring me the power, I'll be the king of the land and the seas
I've got a way to go, let me fight with my body and soul

Let me be the native son with freedom in my heart
Life will never be the same when spirits are calling my name
My name...

So bring me the power, I'll be the king of the land and the seas
I've got a way to go, let me fight with my body and soul

Let me be the native son with freedom in my home
Life will never be the same when spirits are calling my name

Spirits are calling my name

My loving you meant only heartaches

I should be happy with someone new
But my heart aches for you
