Los Argentinitos
Composer(s): Miguel Mateos
Performer(s): Miguel Mateos
No manden comida
no manden medicinas
no manden nada a Somalía
mándenlo a Tucumán
No manden ropa
no manden más dinero
no manden nada a Sarajevo
mándenlo a Santiago ... del Estero
Pero manden maestros
sí manden muchos maestros
a la Ciudad Oculta
y a las Malvinas
En el cielo las estrellas
en el campo las espinas
y en medio del pecho
la República Argentina
En el cielo las estrellas
en el campo las espinas
y en medio del pecho
la República Argentina
Oro conservador
tapiza la casa del gobernador
aunque él trate y trate
de disimular
Cualquier reserva de dinero
es indigna, así lo veo
si hay un sólo pibe que se muere
de cólera, de cólera
En el cielo las estrellas
en el campo las espinas
y en medio del pecho
la República Argentina
En el cielo las estrellas
en el campo las espinas
y en medio del pecho

Super Skier
Super Skier
Composer(s): Bob Gibson - Rieser
Performer(s): The Chad Mitchell Trio
Well, they called him Super Skier
As he sat around the sundeck
For he swore that he would never take a spill
When they finally brought him down
They had to use three toboggans
To carry all the pieces down the hill
Chorus:
He was comin' down that slope
Doin' ninety miles an hour
When he caught an edge of his ski
Well, his clothes, they were fast
But the slopes, they were faster
That's the last of Super Skier we shall see
Well, he hollered, "What the hell!"
As he lined them parallel
He figured there was nothing more to learn
(Oh, no...)
And as he started on his way
He shouted, "Ondelay!"
Assuming that he'd never have to turn
Well, he was slippin' down that slope
Doin' ninety miles an hour
When a mogul flipped him in the air
His jumping form was fine
Until he ran into that pine
And two one-legged skiers left from there
(repeat chorus)
When he left that tree at last
He was moving twice as fast
Both halves were skimming moguls like a feather
He said, "If I must be
A split personality
How can I ever keep my knees together?"
One ski was headed north
And the other headed west
'Cause both of them, you see, were running freer
And folks up on Little Nell
Looked up, scared as hell
Said, "It's a bird"
"No, it's a plane"
"It's Super Skier!"
(No, uh, it's a bird)
(repeat chorus)
Now the moral of my story
(Though my story's kinda gory)
For all you sundeck Charlies, there's still hope
You buy the fastest clothes you can
Then talk skiing like a man
But don't let people catch you on the slope!
(repeat chorus)
And let's get Charlie off the M.T.A.

Coming Into Los Angeles
Composer(s): Arlo Guthrie
First release by: Arlo Guthrie - 1969
Covered by multiple other artists
Coming in from London
From over the pole
Flying in a big airliner
Chickens flying everywhere around the plane
Could we ever feel much finer?
Coming into Los Angeles
Bringing in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please
Mister Customs Man
There's a guy with a ticket to Mexico
No, he couldn't look much stranger
Walking in the hall with his things and all
Smiling, said he was the Lone Ranger
Coming into Los Angeles
Bringing in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please
Mister Customs Man
Hip woman walking on a moving floor
Tripping on the escalator
There's a man in the line
And she's blowing his mind
Thinking that he's already made her
Coming into Los Angeles
Bringing in a couple of keys
Don't touch my bags if you please
Mister Customs Man

Los Amantes
Los Amantes
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael
and multiple other artists
Los amantes se van
Riendo se van porque no los entienden
Y se van del lugar, de aquella ciudad donde vivieron siempre
Los amantes se van
Contentos se van a un rincón de la Tierra
Da lo mismo el lugar ¿qué importa el lugar?
Mientras vivan tan cerca
Los amantes se marchan porque nadie perdona
Que se quieran así, que se adoren así
Como ellos se adoran
Cada día comienzan un nuevo idilio
Cada día terminan un gran amor
Juntos van porque quieren mañana y tarde
No hay cadenas que obliguen a los amantes
Cada día comienzan un nuevo idilio
Cada día terminan un gran amor
Juntos van porque quieren mañana y tarde
No hay cadenas que obliguen a los amantes
Los amantes jamás pudieron
Guardar un recuerdo de boda
Nadie tuvo que hacer ni de amigo y de juez
Y brindar por la novia
Los amantes no juran un amor para siempre
Que el amor es amor y no obligación
Como piensa la gente

She's a very kinky girl
The kind you don't take home to mother
She will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street, ow girl
She likes the boys in the band
She says that I'm her all time favorite
When I make my move to her room it's the right time
She's never hard to please, oh no
That girl is pretty wild now, the girl's a super freak
The kind of girl you read about in new wave magazines
That girl is pretty kinky, the girl's a super freak
I really love to taste her, every time we meet
She's all right, she's all right
That girl's all right with me, yeah
Hey hey hey hey
She's a super freak, super freak, she's super freaky
yow
Everybody sing!
Super freak, super freak
She's a very special girl
The kind of girl you want to know
From her head down to her toenails
Down to her feet
Yet she'll wait for me at backstage with her girlfriends
In a limousine
Chrome and black and shiny, now
Three's not a crowd to her, she says
"Room 714, I'll be waiting"
When I get there she's got incense, wine and candles
It's such a freaky scene
That girl is pretty kinky, the girl's a super freak
The kind of girl you read about in new wave magazines
That girl is pretty wild now, the girl's a super freak
I really love to taste her, every time we meet
She's all right, she's all right
That girl's all right with me, yeah
Hey hey hey hey
She's a super freak, super freak, she's super-freaky
yow
Temptations sing; O-o-o-o-o-o-oh
Super freak, super freak, that girl's a super freak
O-o-o-o-o-o-oh
She's a very kinky girl
The kind you won't take home to mother
And she will never let your spirits down
Once you get her off the street
Blow, Danny, Yow ...

Los Accidentes De La Ruta
Los Accidentes De La Ruta
Composer(s): León Gieco
Performer(s): León Gieco
Al costado de tu tiempo quedan los queridos
detrás de tu cabeza todo el recorrido
adelante están los días si vendrán
porque tus ojos nunca podrán ver lo que sigue
Mas allá del horizonte está el destino
mas allá de ese destino hay un abismo
en el que caerás si no te cuidas, oh mi amigo
uh, uh, uh, uh ...
En el medio de la ruta flota la pregunta
rodeando tus sentidos están los de otra gente
en el medio de la suerte si tendrás
canta la flor reciente sin saber lo que sigue

Sunspot Baby
Sunspot Baby
Composer(s): Bob Seger
Performer(s): Bob Seger
She packed up her bags and she took off down the road
Left me here stranded with the bills she owed
She gave me a false address
Took off with my American Express
Sunspot Baby
She sure had me way outguessed
She left me here stranded like a dog out in the yard
Charged up a fortune on my credit card
She used my address and my name
Man that was sure unkind
Sunspot Baby
She sure has a real good time
I looked in Miami
I looked in Negril
The closest I came was a month old bill
I checked the Bahamas and they said she was gone
I can't understand why she did me so wrong
But she packed up her bags
And she took off down the road
Said she was going to visit sister Flo
She used my address and my name
And man that was sure unkind
Sunspot Baby
I'm gonna catch up sometime
Sure had a real good time

Lorsque S'en Vient Le Soir
Lorsque S'en Vient Le Soir
Composer(s): Jean Ferrat
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
Lorsque s'en vient le soir qui tourne par la porte
Vivre à la profondeur soudain d'un champ de blé
Je te retrouve amour avec mes mains tremblées
Qui m'es la terre tendre entre les feuilles mortes
Et nous nous défaisons de nos habits volés
Rien n'a calmé ces mains que j'ai de te connaître
Gardant du premier soir ce trouble à te toucher
Je te retrouve amour si longuement cherchée
Comme si tout à coup s'ouvrait une fenêtre
Et si tu renonçais à toujours te cacher
Je suis à tout jamais ta scène et ton théâtre
Où le rideau d'aimer s'envole n'importe où
L'étoile neige en moi son éternel mois d'août
Rien n'a calmé ce coeur en te voyant de battre
Il me fait mal à force et rien ne m'est si doux
Tu m'es pourtant toujours la furtive passante
Qu'on retient par miracle au détour d'un instant
Rien n'a calmé ma peur je doute et je t'attends
Dieu perd les pas qu'il fait lorsque tu m'es absente
Un regard te suffit à faire le beau temps
Lorsque s'en vient le soir qui tourne par la porte
Vivre à la profondeur soudain d'un champ de blé
Je te retrouve amour avec mes mains tremblées
Qui m'es la terre tendre entre les feuilles mortes
Et nous nous défaisons de nos habits volés

Sunshine, Sunshine
Sunshine, Sunshine
Composer(s): James Taylor
Performer(s): Tom Rush; Smooth Citizen; James Taylor
Sounds of laughter here comes sunshine
Smiling faces all around
They possess you bless you sunshine
Now you can never let them down
I say sunshine
Sunshine, sunshine
Is that a cloud across your smile or did you dream again last night
It’s best you rest inside a while as blue doesn’t seem to suit you right
Things ain’t what they used to be pain and rain and misery
Illness in the family and sunshine means a lot to me
I say sunshine
But could it be sunshine is drifting with midnight
And lonely when everyone’s gone
Blue crystal spirits and gardens in moonlight
Leave weak alone and bleak all quiet and grey by dawn
Sunshine sunshine
Rising to late to chase the cold and failing to change the frost to dew
She’s trading her mood of yellow gold for frost bitten shades of silver
Blue
Friends and lovers past and gone and no-one waiting further on
I’m running short of things to be and sunshine means quiet a lot to me
I say sunshine... sunshine

L'orphelin
L'orphelin
Composer(s): Georges Brassens - Jean Bertola
Performer(s): Maxime le Forestier
Sauf dans le cas fréquent, hélas!
Où ce sont de vrais dégueulasses
On ne devrait perdre jamais
Ses père et mère, bien sûr, mais
À moins d'être un petit malin
Qui meurt avant d'être orphelin
Ou un infortuné bâtard
Ça nous pend au nez tôt ou tard
Quand se drapant dans un linceul
Ses parents le laissent tout seul
Le petit orphelin, ma foi
Est bien à plaindre
Toutefois
Sans aller jusqu'à décréter
Qu'il devient un enfant gâté
Disons que dans son affliction
Il trouve des compensations
D'abord au dessert aussitôt
La meilleure part du gâteau
Et puis plus d'école, pardi
La semaine aux quatre-jeudis
On le traite comme un pacha
A sa place on fouette le chat
Et le trouvant très chic en deuil
Les filles lui font des clins d'œil
Il serait par trop saugrenu
D'énumérer par le menu
Les faveurs et les passe-droits
Qu'en l'occurrence on lui octroie
Tirant même un tel bénéfice
En perdant leurs parents, des fils
Dénaturés regrettent de
N'en avoir à perdre que deux
Hier j'ai dit à un animal
De flic qui me voulait du mal
Je suis orphelin, savez-vous?
Il me répondit: je m'en fous
J'aurais eu quarante ans de moins
Je suis sûr que par les témoins
La brute aurait été mouchée
Mais ces lâches n'ont pas bougé
Aussi mon enfant si tu dois
Etre orphelin, dépêche-toi
Tant qu'à perdre tes chers parents
Petit, n'attends pas d'être grand
L'orphelin d'âge canonique
Personne ne le plaint: bernique!
Et pour tout le monde il demeure
Orphelin de la onzième heure
Celui qui a fait cette chanson
A voulu dire à sa façon
Que la perte des vieux est parfois perte sèche, blague à part
Avec l'âge c'est bien normal
Les plaies du cœur guérissent mal
Souventes fois même, salut!
Elles ne se referment plus

Composer(s): Youcef Hedjajd
Performer(s): Enrico Macias
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Le brun au regard fatal
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Car moi je suis sentimental
Et pourtant je ne fais pas de mal
On m'a surnommé l'Oriental
On critique ma vie
Mais on aime ma compagnie
À tout instant mon cœur s'attache
Mon cœur joue à cache-cache
Même quand je n'ai pas un dollar
Je chante et j'oublie mon cafard
On m'a surnommé l'Oriental
Car moi je suis sentimental
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Le brun au regard fatal
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Car moi je suis sentimental
Et pourtant je ne fais pas de mal
On m'a surnommé l'Oriental
Chansons tristes ou chansons gaies
Moi je chante ce qu'il me plaît
C'est la musique qui m'affole
Musique orientale ou espagnole
La chanson c'est comme l'amour
Ça fait rêver la nuit le jour
On m'a surnommé l'Oriental
Tellement je suis sentimental
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Le brun au regard fatal
Et l'on m'appelle l'Oriental
Car moi je suis sentimental
Et pourtant je ne fais pas de mal
On m'a surnommé l'Oriental

First release by: Donovan - 1966

Sunshine came softly through my a-window today
Could've tripped out easy a-but I've a-changed my ways
It'll take time, I know it but in a while
You're gonna be mine, I know it, we'll do it in style
'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine
I'll tell you right now
Any trick in the book now, baby, all that I can find
Everybody's hustlin' just to have a little scene
When I say we'll be cool I think that you know what I mean
We stood on a beach at sunset, do you remember when?
I know a beach where, baby, a-it never ends
When you've made your mind up forever to be mine
Hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm, hmm
I'll pick up your hand and slowly blow your little mind
'Cause I made my mind up you're going to be mine
I'll tell you right now
Any trick in the book now, baby, all that I can find
Superman or green lantern ain't got a-nothin' on me
I can make like a turtle and dive for your pearls in the sea, yeah!
A you-you-you can just sit there a-thinking on your velvet throne
'bout all the rainbows a-you can a-have for your own
When you've made your mind up forever to be mine
I'll pick up your hand and slowly blow your little mind
When you've made your mind up forever to be mine
I'll pick up your hand
I'll pick up your hand

Composer(s): André Varel - Charly Bailly - Francis Carco
Performer(s): Edith Piaf
and multiple other artists
Un vieil orgue de Barbarie
Est venu jouer l'autre jour
Sous ma fenêtre, dans la cour
Une ancienne chanson d'amour
Et pour que rien, rien ne varie
Amour rimait avec toujours
En écoutant cette romance
Qui me rappelait le passé
Je crus que j'en avais assez
Mais comme hélas, tout recommence
Tout hélas a recommencé
Tout hélas a recommencé
Je t'ai donné mon cœur
Je t'ai donné ma vie
Et mon âme ravie
Malgré ton air moqueur
Reprenons tous en chœur
Est à toi pour la vie
C'est pourtant vrai, lorsque j'y pense
Que je l'aimais éperduement
Et que jamais aucun amant
Ne m'a causé plus de tourments
Mais voilà bien ma récompense
D'avoir pu croire en ses serments
Il a suffi d'une aventure
Plus banale en vérité
Pour qu'un beau soir, sans hésiter
Il obéit à sa nature
Je ne l'avais pas mérité
Je ne l'avais pas mérité
Je t'ai donné mon cœur
Je t'ai donné ma vie
Et mon âme ravie
Malgré ton air moqueur
Reprenons tous en chœur
Est à toi pour la vie
Que pouvons-nous contre nous-mêmes?
Chacun de nous suit son chemin
C'est le sort de tous les humains
Mais ceux qui vont main dans la main
En se disant tout bas "je t'aime"
Devraient songer aux lendemains
Sur une triste ritournelle
Dont l'écho s'est vite envolé
L'orgue à la fin s'en est allé
Et, pardonnant à l'infidèle
J'ai chanté pour me consoler
J'ai chanté pour me consoler
Je t'ai donné mon cœur
Je t'ai donné ma vie
Et mon âme ravie
Malgré ton air moqueur
Reprenons tous en chœur
Est à toi pour la vie
Je t'ai donné mon cœur, je t'ai donné ma vie ...

Composer(s): Donovan - Herbert Pagani
Performer(s): Gianni Pettenati
Sai superman a che ora
Lei pensa a te
Al tuo denaro e all'oro, che conta per te
Ed io son rimasto solo
A chiedermi se
Ama l'uomo nuovo
O quel che eri tu
Quando m'insegnavi
A credere all'amor
Ma ora io so... che superuomo strano
Pero' ci sei tu
Ma forse un giorno credi
Non lo sarai piu'
Se lei vuole il mondo intero
O il sole lassu'
Tu hai gia' volato in cielo e ancora di piu'
Ma quel superuomo
Sei sempre piu' che mai
Uh uh uh uh uh
Ed io son rimasto solo
Col pianto nel cuor
Sei un superuomo e il vento ti porta con se
Ha cancellato il sole che non splende piu'
Ed io son rimasto solo
E gia' spero che
Lei prenda ancora il volo insieme a me
Non ha piu' denaro
Da comperare un cuor
Uh uh uh uh uh
Sai che ho cercato invano in fondo al tuo cuor
Ma le mie parole
Non hai ascoltato mai
Uh uh uh uh uh nel mio giardino ieri
Eri con me

Lorelei
Composer(s): Dennis DeYoung - James Young
Performer(s): Styx
When I think of Lorelei my head turns all around
As gentle as a butterfly she moves without a sound
I call her on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in and I can hardly wait
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Her eyes become of Paradise, she softly speaks my name
She brightens every lonely night, no one's quite the same
She calls me on the telephone, she says be there by eight
Tonight's the night she's moving in, it's time to celebrate
The way she moves, ooh-ooh
I gotta say
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever
Lorelei let's live together
Brighter than the stars forever

Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost always makes me high
If I had a tale that I could tell you
I'd tell a tale sure to make you smile
If I had a wish that I could wish for you
I'd make a wish for sunshine for all the while
Sunshine on my shoulders makes me happy
Sunshine in my eyes can make me cry
Sunshine on the water looks so lovely
Sunshine almost all the time makes me high
