Walk And Talk It
Walk And Talk It
Composer(s): Lou Reed
Performer(s): Lou Reed
I got horrors in my luney tunes
I got dreams and you do, too
I got ten wheel drive, pick you up into your ears
I got retake carbine and in my eyelids gear
I got no one to love and no one to fear
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
If you're moving too fast, don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
I got dimes in my shoes, real nice
I got bells that are laid on ice
I got dreams, let me mix it with a little gin
I got cruel when I told you woman, I'm hard
But me is the one thing baby, you ain't got
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
Yeah, if you're moving too fast, don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
You better walk it, and talk it less you loose that beat
You better loose yourself, mama
And rock yourself right off of your feet
Yeah, if you're moving too fast, now don't you want it to last
You better walk it, talk it
You better walk it as you talk less you loose that beat
Ah - ha - ha

A Song For You (Leon Russell)
A Song For You
((Italian Version: Quasi Come Musica (by Mina) - 1975))
Composer(s): Leon Russell
First release by: Leon Russell - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
I've been so many places in my life and time
I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme
I've acted out my love in stages
With ten thousand people watching
But we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
I know your image of me is what I hope to be
I've treated you unkindly but darlin' can't you see
There's no one more important to me
Darlin' can't you please see through me
Cause we're alone now and I'm singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
You taught me precious secrets of the truth witholding nothing
You came out in front and I was hiding
But now I'm so much better and if my words don't come together
Listen to the melody cause my love is in there hiding
I love you in a place where there's no space or time
I love you for in my life you are a friend of mine
And when my life is over
Remember when we were together
We were alone and I was singing this song for you
We were alone and I was singing this song for you

When you walk, you know you're gonna walk alone

Yeah when you make love, you know you're gonna love it alone
All alone, all alone, you know you're gonna love it alone
All alone, all alone, you know you're gonna love it alone

Quasi Come Musica
Quasi Come Musica
((Adapted from: A Song For You (by Leon Russell) - 1970))
Composer(s): Leon Russell - Daiano - Gino Paoli
Performer(s): Mina - 1975
Se fossi solamente
un'abitudine
il caldo che ti resta
dopo che il sole va
e nuvole che il vento unisce
la sbronza che non può passare
potrei davvero io
non amarti più
Se fossi come un sogno
che non ricordi più
fiore dentro il libro
di matematica
la quiete dopo la tempesta
stanca fine di una festa
potrei davvero io non amarti più
Ma tu non sei mai niente
non somigli proprio a niente
sei fatto per me
ma non so come
Sei sempre molto meglio
di quel che mi viene in mente
quasi come musica
La tua vita sì è insieme a me
Ma non so come dire
quello che c'è tra noi
cercando posso dire
le frasi che tu vuoi
ma non sarà abbastanza
io non so proprio vivere senza
quasi una musica
la vita insieme a te
Quasi una musica
la vita insieme a te

Walk A Thin Line
Walk A Thin Line
Composer(s): Lindsey Buckingham
Performer(s): Fleetwood Mac;
Mick Fleetwood; Reservoir
I've seen so many things that made me wonder
But sometimes it's hard to tell
I said, "Take your time"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line
They told me that I never would recover
Still some say they knew me well
I said, "Stay by my side"
But no one said nothin'
I walk a thin line
I said, "Please toe the line"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line
I said, "Fate takes time"
But no one was listening
I walk a thin line

A Song For You (Julie London)
A Song For You
Performer(s): Julie London
Now I know, how it feels when you walk out that door
Now I know,how it feels when you don't love me… anymore
I don't care if this is what is meant to be
I don't care, as long as you come back… to me
Oeee… I have to
But I don't want to
I just have to
(And I need to)
Sing a little song for you…
Sing a little song,sing a little song for you…
Now I know,how it feels when someone's givin up on you
Now I know,how it feels when you don't care about the thinks I do
I had hoped,hoped you would always be near
But I'll go, go for whatever's meant to be…
Oeee… I have to
But I don't want to
I just have to
(And I need to)
Sing a little song for you…
Sing a little song, sing a little song for you…
Oh listen than here's my voice
Listen what I've got to say
Other think than there's another choise
But to sing my troubles away
And try to live my life day after day
I'm singin my troubles away
And try to live my life day after day
Should I go
Should I go
Is there anyone, to sing a little song for me…?

Walk A Mile In My Shoes
Walk A Mile In My Shoes
Composer(s): Joe South
Performer(s): Elvis Presley
If I could be you, if you could be me
For just one hour, if we could find a way
To get inside each other's mind
If you could see you through my eyes
Instead your own ego I believe you'd be
I believe you'd be surprised to see
That you've been blind
Walk a mile in my shoes
just walk a mile in my shoes
Before you abuse, criticize and accuse
Then walk a mile in my shoes
Now if we spend the day
Throwin' stones at one another
'Cause I don't think, 'cause I don't think
Or wear my hair the same way you do
Well, I may be common people
But I'm your brother
And when you strike out
You're tryin' to hurt me
It's hurtin' you, Lord how mercy
Now there are people on reservations
And out in the ghetto
And brother there, but, for the grace of God
Go you and I,
If I only had wings of a little angel
Don't you know, I'd fly
To the top of a mountain
And then I'd cry, cry, cry

A Song For You (Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris)
A Song For You
Composer(s): Gram Parsons
First release by: Gram Parsons & Emmylou Harris - 1972
Oh my land is like a wild goose
Wanders all around everywhere
Trembles and it shakes till every tree is loose
It rolls the meadows and it rolls the nails
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
Jesus built a ship to sing a song to
It sails the rivers and it sails the tide
Some of my friends don't know who they belong to
Some can't get a single thing to work inside
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
I loved you every day and now I'm leaving
And I can see the sorrow in your eyes
I hope you know a lot more than you're believing
Just so the sun don't hurt ou when you cry
So take me down to your dance floor
And I wont mind the people when they stare
Paint a different color on your front door
And tomorrow we will still be there
And tomorrow we will still be there

Wako-Shaman
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé; Ross Cullum;
Sandy McLelland; Andy Ross; Toulson-Clarke
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
Érase una vez un sabio que
Dijo ser profeta y guardar
El Secreto Poder
Que quisieras tener
Era el Gran Shaman
Era un mago de la tribu Babel
Tigre-halcón en otra vida fue
Y era el Hombre- sol
Que entre el Bien y el mal
Se hizo con la Verdad
Wako Shaman
Háblame de otro mañana
Wako Shaman
Nueva Era cambiare
Wako Shaman
Todo el oro de mi alma
Leyó el Canto de los Pájaros
Habló de algún camino Kármico...
"Quién no quiera oír
no se ha de salvar
en la Hora Final...
Esta tierra así tan única
que es dominio de los Bárbaros
antes o después
se tendrá que romper
y no va a tardar..."
Por el Tótem Sagrado
Mi promesa cumpliré
A otros tiempos antiguos
Viajaría, volvería
Y con al Ciencia aprendida
Madre Tierra déjame
Que te cuide como sé
Que te quiera como sé...
Y ante mil Burdos Babilónicos
Como vino, desapareció
Y el planeta tembló...
Un gran fuego arrasó
Con quien no quiso escuchar...

A Song For While I'm Away
A Song For While I'm Away
Composer(s): Phil Lynott
Performer(s): Thin Lizzy
These words I wrote, play and sing to you
Do not convey the love I brought and bring to you
For this is a song for while I'm away
To say all the things I'd love to say
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say
Now I'm headed for the border
You see this song it ends right at the start
I swore when I was younger
No one would win my heart
And far away hills look greener still
But soon they'll all slip away
It's then I'll be returning
And I'll be coming home to stay
You are my life, my everything, you're all I have
You are my hopes, my dreams, my world come true
You're all I have
Please heed me now these words I have to say

Wake Up, Irene
Wake Up, Irene
Composer(s): Weldon Allard; Johnny Hathcock
Performer(s): Hank Thompson;
The Maddox Brothers & Rose
For months and months and months around the country
Everybody sang Irene goodnight
But she wouldn't go to bed no matter what they said
Though everybody tried with all their might
She stayed awake while steel guitars were a going
In every honky-tonk she could be seen
But she finally went to bed and covered up her head
And now there's not a thing can wake Irene
Wake up Irene you've slept too long
Wake up Irene it's time to move along
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed
Wake up Irene or folks will think your dead
Lot's of guitar pickers by the dozen
Sang goodnight Irene all night and day
And even Crosby too with his bobobabobedo
Tried to get Irene to hit the hay
Well I guess they finally sang her off to slumber
They must have tried a million times or more
But oh my aching back when she finally hit the sack
Man you ought to hear that women snore
Wake up Irene you've slept too long
Wake up Irene it's time to move along
Wake up Irene and pay for your bed
Wake up Irene or folks will think your dead

I'm just a man
please let me
sing my song
it's been ten years
since I met you
and I first held your hand
my Suzanne
that summer night
we dreamed of
days to come
I held you there
beside me
we carved the wishing tree
and then
we played the part of lovers
on that summer night
we played the part of lovers
you gave all your love and you made it seem right
you made me a man oh so young in my life
one simple verse
like the words in a play
you spoke your lines
and I knew I must stay
oh I must stay
now we are free
and we are growing old
the wishing tree still stands there
and shades our memories
of when
we played the part of lovers
on that summer night
we played the part of lovers
you gave all your love and you made it seem right
you made me a man oh so young in my life

Composer(s): Robert Lamm
Performer(s): Chicago
Wake up sunshine
Open up your sleepy eyes for me
Can't have you hidin'
I've been waiting all the night
People waiting for the light
Sunshine, sunshine
Wake up sunshine
Let me feel your warm sunlight on me
Can't have you hidin'
Night was long and night was cold
But today we're one day older
Sunshine, you make my life sunshine
You know I'm talkin' to you
I know you're knowin' it too
So just stop hidin' your face
Just open your eyes
Just smile your smile
I'm talkin' to you
Wake up sunshine
Ooh, it's good to have you here with me
Can't have you hidin'
Can't imagine what I'd do
But feel too lonely without you
Sunshine, sunshine
You got to wake up girl
And face the day ahead

Song For Me
Song For Me
Composer(s): Dave Cousins - Brian Willoughby
Performer(s): Dave Cousins
Once I was a minstrel boy, I sang just like a bird
I used to trade in memories, I relived every word
But the galleries are empty now, the crowds have all gone home
I locked away my songs, I sang them on my own
I sang them on my own
Now those who walk behind me have heard it all before
They knew the many reasons I screwed them like some whore
Like jumped-up jacks of all trades they walked with fettered legs
And wondered where the tent went when I pulled out all the pegs
I pulled out all the pegs
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
The peaceful queen of platitudes sat resting on his throne
His laurel wreath was slipping as he retrieved his buried bone
Ah but I had got there sooner, I had chewed away the fat
While he slept in the gutter, I slept on the mat
I slept on the mat
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me
This song is sung for me

Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
We’ve both been sound asleep, wake up, little Susie, and weep
The movie’s over, it’s four o’clock, and we’re in trouble deep
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
What are we gonna tell your mama
What are we gonna tell your pa
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say 'ooh-la-la'
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
I told your mama that you’d be in by ten
Well Susie baby looks like we goofed again
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, we got to go home
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
Wake up, little Susie, wake up
The movie wasn’t so hot, it didn’t have much of a plot
We fell asleep, our goose is cooked, our reputation is shot
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie, well
What are we gonna tell your mama
What are we gonna tell your pa
What are we gonna tell our friends when they say 'ooh-la-la'
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie
Wake up little Susie

Gonna lose my way tomorrow
Gonna give away my car
I’d take you along with me
But you would not go so far
Don’t see what I do not want to see
You don’t hear what I don’t say
Won’t be what I don’t want to be
I continue in my way
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’
Don’t see, see, see where I’m goin’ to
I don’t want to
Everyday I see the mornin’ come on in the same old way
I tell myself tomorrow brings me things I would not dream today

Wake up everybody no more sleepin' in bed
No more backward thinkin' time for thinkin' ahead
The world has changed so very much
From what it used to be so

Maybe then they'll listen to whatcha have to say
Cause they're the ones who's coming up and the world is in their hands
when you teach the children teach 'em the very best you can
Chorus
The world won't get no better if we just let it be
The world won't get no better we gotta change it yeah, just you and me
Wake up all the doctors make the ol' people well
They're the ones who suffer an' who catch all the hell
But they don't have so very long before the Judgement Day
So won'tcha make them happy before they pass away
Wake up all the builders time to build a new land
I know we can do it if we all lend a hand
The only thing we have to do is put it in our mind
Surely things will work out they do it every time

A Song For Europe
A Song For Europe
Composer(s): Andy Mackay - Bryan Ferry
First release by: Roxy Music - 1973
Covered by: Michaela Melián - 2004
Here as I sit
At this empty cafe
Thinking of you
I remember
All those moments
Lost in wonder
That we´ll never
Find again
Though the world
Is my oyster
It´s only a shell
Full of memories
And here by the Seine
Notre-Dame casts
A long lonely shadow
Now - only sorrow
No tomorrow
There´s no today for us
Nothing is there
For us to share
But yesterday
These cities may change
But there always remains
My obsession
Through silken waters
My gondola glides
And the bridge - it sighs ...
I remember
All those moments
Lost in wonder
That we´ll never
Find again
There´s no more time for us
Nothing is there
For us to share
But yesterdays
Ecce momenta
Illa mirabilia
Quae captabit
In aeternum
Memor
Modo dolores
Sunt in dies
Non est reliquum
Vero tantum
Comminicamus
Perdita
Tous ces moments
Perdus dans l`enchantement
Qui ne reviendront
Jamais
Pas d´aujourd´hui pour nous
Pour nous il n´y a rien
À partager
Sauf le passé
