House For Sale
House For Sale
Performer(s): Lucifer
The sign went up one rainy morning
just a couple of hours after dawn
Mrs. Hanley peeked out through her curtains
wondering what was going on
The neighbors said over coffee cups, that nice young couple is breaking up
In the living room the crystal and the linen sit all packed and set to go
I tell myself once more I won't be here this spring to see my roses grow
And all the things you tried to fix, the roof still leaks, the door still sticks
House for Sale
You can read it on the sign
House for Sale
It was yours and it was mine
And tomorrow some strangers will be climbing up the stairs
To the bedroom filled with memories
The one we used to share
I know you always loved that painting
From that funny little shop in Spain
Remember how we found it
When we ducked in from that sudden summer rain
But I think I'll keep the silver tray
My mother gave us on our wedding day
House for Sale...

A Love So Fine
A Love So Fine
Composer(s): Sidney Barnes - George Kerr - Philip Fredrick Margo -
Mitchell Stuart Margo - Henry Medress - Jay Seigel
Performer(s): The Chiffons
Oh yes, he's the darling, and I'm so glad that he'll be mine
Yesterday he said he wants me to share, a love so fine (a love so fine)
When he smiled,for me only, and his kisses are so divine
From now on, I won't be lonely, 'cause we're sharing
A love so fine (a love so fine)
All the girls are jealous of him, that's not really hard to see
They would never try to love him, his love belongs to me
repeat
Our love, will last forever, and forever's a long, long, time
And I know, no one will ever, ever break up
A love so fine (a love so fine)
Oh yeah (a love so fine)
Yeah yeah (a love so fine)
Oh yeah (a love so fine)

House At Pooh Corner
House At Pooh Corner
Composer(s): Kenny Loggins
Performer(s): Kenny Loggins;
and various other artists
Christopher Robin and I walked along
Under branches lit up by the moon
Posing our questions to Owl and Eeyore
As our days disappeared all too soon
But I've wandered much further today than I should
And I can't seem to find my way back to the Wood
So help me if you can I've got to get
Back to the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised, There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh
Winnie the Pooh doesn't know what to do
Got a honey jar stuck on his nose
He came to me asking help and advice
And from here no one knows where he goes
So I sent him to ask of the Owl if he's there
How to loosen a jar from the nose of a bear
Help me if you can I've got to get
Back to the House at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised, There's so much to be done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh
It's hard to explain how a few simple things
Seem to follow throughout all our lives
When all's said and done, I was watching my son
Sleeping there with my bear by his side
So I tucked him in and kissed him and as I was gone
I swear that old bear whispered "Boy welcome home"
Believe me if you can, I've got to get
Back to the house at Pooh Corner by one
You'd be surprised there's so much to done
Count all the bees in the hive
Chase all the clouds from the sky
Back to the days of Christopher Robin
Back to the ways of Christopher Robin
Back to the days of Christopher Robin and Pooh

A Love So Beautiful
A Love So Beautiful
Composer(s): Roy Orbison - Jeff Lynne
First release by: Roy Orbison - 1989
Covered by multiple other artists
The summer sun looked down
On our love long ago
But in my heart I feel
The same old afterglow
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away
We were too young to understand
To ever know
That lovers drift apart
And that's the way love goes
A love so beautiful
A love so sweet
A love so beautiful
A love for you and me
And I when I think of you
I fall in love again
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away
A love so beautiful
In every way
A love so beautiful
We let it slip away

Hourrah
Hourrah
Performer(s): Jean Ferrat
On a les yeux de toutes les couleurs
Le rire aux lèvres et la colère au coeur
Et des milliers de chansons dans la voix
Vous mes amis que je ne connais pas
Je ne vous connais pas
Mais je vous imagine
Rien d'autre comme en moi
Qu'un rêve qui s'obstine
Hourrah
On a le front mouillé de tous les ciels
On a l'amour aux rythmes essentiels
Des rivages d'étoiles sous nos pas
Vous mes amis que je ne connais pas
Je ne vous connais pas
Mais je sais qui vous êtes
De grands poissons lilas
Dansent dans votre tête
Hourrah
Depuis le temps qu'on joue les mêmes billes
Que le temps passe au bras des mêmes filles
Et qu'à la source on boit le même vin
Vous mes amis je vous connais si bien
Et le temps d'un refrain
Et l'espace d'un cri
Et le temps d'un refrain
C'est pour vous que je crie
Hourrah
Pour chaque fruit mûrit une saison
C'est en été que tombent les prisons
Grenade un jour aura brisé ses liens
Vous mes amis que je connais si bien
L'avenir l'avenir
Ouvre ses jambes bleues
Faudra-t-il en mourir
Ou bien n'est-ce qu'un jeu
Hourrah
Paris s'endort à l'heure où le matin
Un autre monde est à moitié chemin
En nous aidant le ciel nous aidera
Vous mes amis que je ne connais pas
En nous aidant le ciel nous aidera
Vous mes amis que je ne connais pas
Hourrah

Hour Glass
Hour Glass
Composer(s): Tony Collacott; Jack Mowbray; Breen Leoeuf
Performer(s): Elton John
I'm just sitting counting all the cobwebs
And wondering just when you'll come along
You said that you'd be here an hour ago
But an hour ago is hours ago from then
No, and I don't know what to do
I'm drawing crazy patterns on my shoe
And the sand in the hour glass slips on by
Light another cigarette, watch the burning glow
Catching spiders in my hand, and then I let them go
Imagine pictures on the wall, watch the insects where they crawl
They don't care about you and I've nothing to do
Maybe the bus didn't get there on time
Maybe the train doesn't run on that line for some reason
And she might not come
Because she doesn't want to see you again
No no no, that can't be true
And I've got nothing to do

Houpetta La Bella
Houpetta La Bella
Composer(s): André Bourvil; Etienne Lorin; C. François
Performer(s): André Bourvil
Dans les montagnes en maraude
La fille du contrebandier
Sur son p'tit ân' portait en fraude
Du tabac dans son petit panier
Elle chantait la ritournelle
Qu'un gars avait faite pour ell'...
Oh! hé!, oh! hé!
Ell' s'app'lait Houpetta
Petta-ci, petta-là
Petta-haut, petta-bas
Houpetta-la-bella
Houpetta-la-bella
Houpetta, la mia bella
Sur son ân' elle allait
Petta-ci, petta-là
Petta-haut, petta-bas
Houpetta-la-bella
Houpetta-la-bella
De sa voix fraîche elle chantait: coucou!
Au loin l'écho lui répondait: coucou!
Quand le petit âne faisait, hi! han!
Au loin l'écho lui répondait: la même chose
Coucou-ci, coucou-là
Petta-ci, petta-là
L'écho mêlait tout ça
A la belle Houpetta
Ah! ah! ah! ..........
Mais un beau jour elle se fit prendre
Par un douanier, un bien beau gars
Qui lui a pris sans plus attendre
Tout ce qu'elle avait comme tabac
En pleurant la contrebandière
Lui dit: "ne me fais pas d'misèr's"
Oh! hé!, oh! hé!
Je m'appelle Houpetta
Petta-ci, petta-là
Petta-haut, petta-bas
Houpetta-la-bella
Houpetta-la-bella
Houpetta, la mia bella
Je ne veux pas qu'tu touch's à mon paquet d' tabac
Je t'en prie, je n'veux pas
Ce n'est pas, ce n'est pas
Ce n'est pas, ce n'est pas
Ce n'est pas ta tabatière
Mais le douanier lui, il a dit: "je dois"
Et tout de suite l'écho répondit
Rien parce qu'il n'avait pas crié assez fort
Alors finalement elle lui a dit: "ben, le v'la"
Mais pour s'moquer d'ell' il répondit: "merci! j'fum'pas"
C'est ainsi qu'Houpetta
Sauva tout son tabac
Le petit ân' trotta
Emmena Houpetta
Ah! ah! ah! ...

((Dutch Version: Een Nieuw Begin (Garry Hagger & Sophia) - 1998))
Composer(s): Tim Rice - Alan Menken
First performance by: Brad Kane & Lea Salonga - 1992
Covered by multiple other artists
I can show you the world
Shining, shimmering, splendid
Tell me, princess, now when did
You last let your heart decide?
I can open your eyes
Take you wonder by wonder
Over, sideways and under
On a magic carpet ride
A whole new world
A new fantastic point of view
No one to tell us no
Or where to go
Or say we're only dreaming
A whole new world
A dazzling place I never knew
But when I'm way up here
It's crystal clear
That now I'm in a whole new world with you
Now I'm in a whole new world with you
Unbelievable sights
Indescribable feeling
Soaring, tumbling, freewheeling
Through an endless diamond sky
A whole new world
Don't you dare close your eyes
A hundred thousand things to see
Hold your breath - it gets better
I'm like a shooting star
I've come so far
I can't go back to where I used to be
A whole new world
Every turn a surprise
With new horizons to pursue
Every moment red-letter
I'll chase them anywhere
There's time to spare
Let me share this whole new world with you
A whole new world
That's where we'll be
A thrilling chase
A wondrous place
For you and me

Personne n'a le droit...
Non non de blouser qui que ce soit
Amoureuse de toi
Amoureuse de lui... aussi
On n'a pas toujours le choix
Qui ne t'avait jamais vu pleurer?
Qui pourrait croire à ton indifférence?
Mais quelque part je sais
Que derrière ce regard se cache ma sentence
Au fond c'est toi, toi que j'aime
Si seulement je pouvais t'en parler
Me faire comprendre ou me faire engueuler
Amoureuse ou pas...

A Love Beyond Time
A Love Beyond Time
Performer(s): Dan Fogelberg
Quiet moments at the edge of the sea
Silence washing like a wave over me
I can't help smiling when I think
Of how you've come to be
Such a strong part of me
I watch you sleeping
In the gray light of dawn
Half the covers off
And half of them on
And I can't help feeling I'm part
Of some grand design
And a love beyond time
I trace your cheekbone
With the edge of my thumb
I taste your shoulder
With the tip of my tongue
I smell the fragrance in your hair
Of the sun and sea
Of the sun on the sea
I watch the play of light
And shade on your skin
I hear you whisper
That you want me again.
And I rise to greet your grateful lips
Once again with mine
And a love beyond time
No one could ever love you more
No one could ever love you more than I
No soul could ever shelter yours
No soul could ever shelter yours like mine
Though the world may rage around us
We're safe within the storm
With a love beyond time
With a love beyond time
Now we've both known
Our share of failures before
We both drove
Our share of ships on the shore
We both know the cost
Of dreaming too hard, too high
Of dreaming too high
But now it seems
That every step that we missed
Was just a trick of fate
To lead us to this
When we can share
The taste of something that's so sublime
As a love beyond time
No one could ever love you more
No one could ever love you more than I
No soul could ever shelter yours
No soul could ever shelter yours like mine
Though the world may rage around us
We're safe within the storm
With a love beyond time
With a love beyond time
With a love beyond time
With a love beyond time

Houden Van Jou
Houden Van Jou
Composer(s): Jimmy Frey; Andy Free
Performer(s): Jimmy Frey
Kil is de nacht
Verlangen naar jou is diep
Met een hart dat op je wacht
Voel ik vlagen van romantiek
Dat ik naar jou verlang
Maakt me zo rusteloos
Het is zo stil hier zonder jou
Was jij maar hier
Voor altijd hier
Dit is alleen maar een teken
Dat ik m'n grenzen heb verlegd
Soms is het moeilijk schat
En klopt het heengaan nog
Maar als de pijn er is dan zeg ik toch
Houden van jou
Ik wil m'n leven lang houden van jou
één en ware liefde, trouw zijn aan jou
Wij samen dromen ons los van de wereld
Diep in de hemel
Houden van jou
In alle hevigheid houden van jou
Met alle levenskracht leven voor jou
Wij samen dromen ons los van de wereld
Diep in de hemel
Neem de tijd en vertel me hoe jij ook ons samenzijn ziet
Vertel me van een geluk van een toekomst die jij me biedt
Ik besef dat wij moeten sterk zijn
Met ons tweeën jij en ik
Ik nooit het spoor verlies
En met twee harten leef vanaf nu
Met jou elk ogenblik
Houden van jou
Ik wil m'n leven lang houden van jou
Een en ware liefde trouw zijn aan jou
Wij samen dromen ons los van de wereld
Diep in de hemel
Houden van jou
In alle eeuwigheid houden van jou
Met alle levenskracht leven voor jou
Wij samen dromen ons los van de wereld
Diep in de hemel
Houden van jou
Ik wil m'n leven lang houden van jou
Een en ware liefde trouw zijn aan jou
Wij samen dromen ons los van de wereld
Diep in de hemel
Houden van jou

L'ouest D'Eddy
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell
Quand j'étais jeune j'adorais Gary Cooper
Et le sourire du très grand Burt Lancaster
Mais Jack Palance venait hanter mes nuits
Là-bas à l'Ouest d'Eddy
Randolph Scott était mon meilleur ami
Car je tirais presque aussi bien que lui
Quand Richard Widmark nous cherchait des ennuis
Là-bas à l'Ouest d'Eddy
Mes héros subissent
La gloire ou l'oubli
Quant à moi je suis
Le cow-boy
De service
Robert Mitchum me buvait tout mon whisky
Et grâce à lui j'étais toujours sain d'esprit
Malgré John Wayne qui m'entraînait lui aussi
Là-bas à l'Ouest d'Eddy
Des héros simplistes
Made in Italie
Et western spaghetti
Font de moi
Un raciste
Je sais très bien que mon enfance est finie
Je n'ai pas envie d'être adulte aujourd'hui
Je préfère aller retrouver mes amis
Là-bas à l'Ouest d'Eddy
Je préfère aller retrouver mes amis
Là-bas à l'Ouest d'Eddy

Il nous a emmené
Hier soir au ciné
Ce n'est qu'un bon copain
Ça ne va pas plus loin
Hou! la menteuse

Même s'il a de beaux cheveux blonds
Même s'il a de gentilles façons

Je n'aime pas ces manières
Tu es trop jeune encore
Tu sais que tu as tort
Retourne à tes leçons
Je n'aime pas ce garçon

Hou! la menteuse
Ce garçon n'a rien pour plaire

Même s'il a des jolis yeux verts
Même s'il a de gentilles manières

C'est vrai qu'il est gentil
Qu'il a beaucoup d'humour
Ce qu'il faut de folie
Mais ne vas pas t'imaginer
Que j'ai trouvé le grand amour
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Petit frère vas-tu te taire
Hou! la menteuse
Ce garçon n'a rien pour plaire
Elle est amoureuse
Même s'il a beaucoup de charme
Même si parfois il me désarme
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Ecoute bien petit frère
Tu sais je suis sincère
Si ce garçon me plais
Eh bien je te le dirai
En tout cas petit frère
Mêles toi de tes affaires
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Petit frère vas-tu te taire
Hou! la menteuse
Ce garçon n'a rien pour plaire
Elle est amoureuse
Même s'il a de beaux cheveux blonds
Même s'il a de gentilles façons
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Mais non c'est juste un bon copain
Écoute! Arrête de chanter ça
Tu m'énerves!
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Ecoute si tu continues
Plus jamais je ne t'emmènerai
Au ciné avec moi, alors!
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Arrête!
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Ho! tu es pénible, écoute!
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
J'vais dire à Papa
si tu continues de m'embêter
Hou! la menteuse
Elle est amoureuse
Oh! et puis tu m'énerves
Avec cette chanson idiote ....
