Dedicated To You
Dedicated To You
Composer(s): Sammy Cahn - Saul Chaplin - Hy Zaret
First recording/First release by: Andy Kirk and His Clouds of Joy - 1936/1937
Covered by multiple other artists
If I should write a book for you
That brought me fame and fortune too
That book would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you.
And, if I should paint a picture too
That showed the loveliness of you
My art would be, like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you, because your love is the beacon that lights up my way
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be, like my heart and me
Dedicated to you
To you, because your love is a beacon that lights up my way
To you because with you I know one lifetime could be just one heavenly place
If I should find a twinkling star
One half so wonderous as you are
That star would be like my heart and me
Dedicated to you

Another's Lifetime
Another's Lifetime
Composer(s): Wayne Berry
Performer(s): Steppenwolf; Ted Neeley
What's the name of your latest companion?
Do I know him, have you told him what you told me?
What's the course of your latest adventure?
Does he track you, will he back you, can he keep you free?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
What's the state of your new situation?
Is he giving, is he willing to let you be?
What's the chance for your new true confession?
Does he make it, will he fake it, can he really see?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
One way or another, we all lose a lover
Some live, some die, some never learn to try
One love for another's lifetime
What's the price of your passing confusion?
Have you sold out, can I hold out, can I live that long?
What's the dream in the back of you memory?
Can you say it, do you pray, has your memory gone?
There is more to life than dreaming
There is more to love than makin' it
There is more to you than meets the eye
One way or another, we all lose a lover
Some die, some live, some never learn to give
One love for another's lifetime

Dedicated To The One I Love
Dedicated To The One I Love
Composer(s): Ralph Bass - Lowman Pauling
First release by: The "5" Royales - 1957
Covered by multiple other artists
While I’m far away from you my baby
I know it’s hard for you my baby
Because it’s hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
Each night before you go to bed my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
And tell all the stars above
This is dedicated to the one I love
(love can never be exactly like we want it to be)
I could be satisfied knowing you love me
(and there’s one thing I want you to do
especially for me)
And it’s something that everybody needs
While I’m far away from you my baby
Whisper a little prayer for me my baby
Because it’s hard for me my baby
And the darkest hour is just before dawn
If there’s one thing I want you to do especially for me
Then it’s something that everybody needs

Another You
Another You
Composer(s): Jimmy Peppers
Performer(s): Faron Young; Loretta Lynn
Her eyes may be a deeper blue
But they remind me so much of you
She may even wear her hair
A little shorter
And when she walks into the room
I smell the fragrance of your perfume
Yes, it just might be
I found me another you
I never wanted it this way
But there's one thing I can say
She is givin' all the love
I wanted you to
When we're alone each night in bed
She speaks the same words you once said
Oh, can it really be
I found me another you
She looks like you, she walks like you
And when she whispers my name
It sounds so much like you talkin'
I feel you in my arms again
There's a feelin' I found with her
That keeps you in my mind so clear
Yes, it just might be
I found me another you
Oh, it just might be
I found me another you

Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
Dedicated Follower Of Fashion
Composer(s): Ray Davies
First release by: The Kinks - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists
They seek him here, they seek him there
His clothes are loud, but never square
It will make or break him so he's got to buy the best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
And when he does his little rounds
'Round the boutiques of London Town
Eagerly pursuing all the latest fads and trends
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He thinks he is a flower to be looked at
And when he pulls his frilly nylon panties right up tight
He feels a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
There's one thing that he loves and that is flattery
One week he's in polka-dots, the next week he is in stripes
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
They seek him here, they seek him there
In Regent Street and Leicester Square
Everywhere the Carnabetian army marches on
Each one an dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
His world is built 'round discoteques and parties
This pleasure-seeking individual always looks his best
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
Oh yes he is (oh yes he is), oh yes he is (oh yes he is)
He flits from shop to shop just like a butterfly
In matters of the cloth he is as fickle as can be
'Cause he's a dedicated follower of fashion
He's a dedicated follower of fashion
He's a dedicated follower of fashion

Don't Break This Heart
Don't Break This Heart
Performer(s): Jack Jersey
Don't break this heart
Don't tell me it's over
Don't tear me back
Your place, I hate to go
Don't let me hide
Just like I did before I met you
Don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?
Won't you tell me how to love you, how to need you
Could you teach me how to forget
Don't, don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
Don't let me hide
Just like I did before I met you
Don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?
Won't you tell me how to love you, how to need you
Could you teach me how to forget
Don't, don't let me down
Don't break this heart in two
For I want you, I need you, I really, really love you
Baby, can't you see that I do?
Or could there be somebody else
Waiting for you?

Dedicate This Heart
Composer(s): Paul Anka - Michael McDonald
Performer(s): The Doobie Brothers; Dionne Warwick
No more goodbye, or waitin' for some lucky day
no driftin' along , no walkin' away
What I feel inside, ain't some idle game I play
this love is alive, and I'm here to stay, baby
Here in your life, there in your heart
there by your side, that's where I want to be
It's plain to see, it's time for me to dedicate this heart, baby
You've grown to be a part of me, so I dedicate this heart
You hold the key, to love for me, so I dedicate this heart
In your name, baby
I hear the things that make me stay
and I realize what I want to say
It feels good inside, and I intend to stay that way
I won't deny what I found today
Here in your life, there in your heart
there by your side, that's where I want to be
It's plain to see, it's time for me to dedicate this heart
I want to dedicate this heart, baby
You've grown to be a part of me, so I dedicate this heart
I want to dedicate, I've got to dedicate
You hold the key, to life for me, so I dedicate this heart
Oh, brother, if you're on your own
dedicate your heart
Yeah, if you're out there all alone
dedicate your heart
Oh, dedicate your heart now, baby
It's plain to see, it's time for me to dedicate this heart
I've got to dedicate, I've got to dedicate
You'll always be a part of me, so I dedicate this heart

Another World
Another World
Composer(s): Brian May
Performer(s): Brian May
In another world
Under another sky
I see another story waiting to be told
And another you
Wakes up with another me
For that's the way we've come to be
In another world
In a different place
Way across time and space
A door is open wide
Drawn to a different light
Maybe we'll step inside
In another world
We can show we care
You can be sure I'm waiting there
In another world
Oooh yeah
When the dice were cast
They laid a crazy path
We follow to our graves
But I know in a different world
We journey a different way
So we live
But life isn't what it seems
We're only living in our dreams
In another world
You can believe I'll meet you here
In another world

Dedicado
Dedicado
Composer(s): José Vaca Flores - Ivano Fossati
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo; Ivano Fossati
Dedicado a los amantes
que se vuelven a encontrar
dedicado a los poetas de la libertad
y a la luz de una mirada sin maldad
A esos locos soñadores
que no dejan de soñar
a ese niño que comienza
con su madre a andar
y a la piel de esa muchacha por amar
Dedicado a los amigos
que se saben respetar
y a la gente que camina pero sin pisar
al valor de una caricia de verdad
Al tendero de la esquina
al taxista, al charlatán
y a la chica de la vida
que ayuda a olvidar
mal amor le regalamos sin pensar
A ese alegre vagabundo
dueño de su libertad
a los náufragos del mundo
sin calor, ni hogar
para ti que estas herida y en soledad
Al que odia a la guerra
al que tiene buen humor
dedicado a la esperanza y ala luz del sol
Para ti hombre futuro es mi canción
dedicado a la vida y al amor

Another Try
Another Try
Composer(s): Gerry Beckley
Performer(s): America
Hey, daddy just lost his pay
What did he do it for
It never made it through our door
He drank the whole week away
And what can a family say
There must be a better way
Now mama don’t start to cry
Let’s give him another try
Pick up the telephone
Tell him you want him home
To sit and watch the evenings pass
And readin’ the leaves of grass
I’m caught in a closing door
It’s pinning me to the floor
Now mama don’t start to cry
Let’s give him another try
I’m caught in a closing door
It’s pinning me to the floor
Now mama don’t start to cry
Let’s give him another try
When we’re old and gray
And the things we say are the things we really mean
So why cause a scene
When things ain’t what they seem
’cause the end result’s the same
Now what can a family say
There must be a better way
Now mama don’t start to cry
Let’s give him another try

Dédé Le Kid
Dédé Le Kid
Composer(s): Joe Dassin - Pierre Delanoë - Claude Lemesle
Performer(s): Joe Dassin
Il est sorti des Beaumettes, est allé voir papa
Ça y est, je suis honnête, j'ai raccroché la béretta
Un petit boulot bien pépère, c'est ça la vérité
Je suis quadragénaire, je vais me recycler
Dédé le Kid garçon boucher
Va déposer sa paie au guichet d'la BNP
Mais le caissier mains en l'air lui dit "pitié, prenez tout"
Et voilà Dédé qui recasse des cailloux
Il est sorti des Baumettes, est allé voir papa
Ça y est, je suis vedette, le show-business n'attend que moi
A la chorale de la taule, quelqu'un m'a remarqué
Tu vois, la vie est drôle, on va me faire chanter
Dédé le Kid à l'Alcazar
Voit surgir dans sa loge un polyvalent furibard
Vous n'avez rien déclaré, mais on connaît la chanson
Et Dédé le Kid se retrouve au violon
Il est sorti des Baumettes, est allé voir papa
Tu vas crier peut-être, mais surtout ne tire pas
J'ai acheté la pèlerine et le petit sifflet
J'ai trouvé la combine, je vais me faire poulet...
Dédé le Kid poulet modèle
Sur une vieille affaire mène son enquête personnelle
Mais il decouvre affligé que le coupable, c'était lui
Et Dédé fair-play se remet à l'abri
Il ne sort plus des Baumettes, il est beaucoup trop vieux
En fauteuil à roulettes, il coule enfin des jours heureux
Moralité si vous êtes truand à recycler
Ayez toujours en tête l'histoire du brave Dédé
Qui est sorti des Baumettes, est allé voir papa
Ça y est, je suis honnête, j'ai raccroché la béretta...

Composer(s): Jimmie Davis - Lee Blastic - Ekko Whelan
First release by: Tex Ritter and His Texans - 1944
Covered by multiple other artists
There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
I remember now that I'm older
What you told me the day we had to part
You promised with the new moon
You'd be comin' back to me
Now many moons have passed since then
I'm waiting patiently
There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart
[And so I keep on waiting
For your safe return someday
And that we'll be the same old sweethearts
As when you went away]
There's a new moon over my shoulder
And an old love still in my heart

Another Tricky Day
Another Tricky Day
Composer(s): Pete Townshend
Performer(s): The Who
You can't always get it
When you really want it
You can't always get it at all
Just because there's space
In your life it's a waste
To spend your time why don't you wait for the call
(Just gotta get used to it)
We all get it in the end
(Just gotta get used to it)
We go down and we come up again
(Just gotta get used to it)
You irritate me my friend
(This is no social crisis)
This is you having fun
(No crisis)
Getting burned by the sun
(This is true)
This is no social crisis
Just another tricky day for you
You can always get higher
Just because you aspire
You could expire even knowing.
Don't push the hands
Just hang on to the band
You can dance while your knowledge is growing
(It could happen anytime)
You can't expect to never cry
(Patience is priceless)
Not when you try to fly so high
(Just stay on that line)
Rock and roll will never die
(This is no social crisis) ...
Another tricky day
Another gently nagging pain
What the papers say
Just seems to bring down heavier rain
The world seems in a spiral
Life seems such a worthless title
But break out and start a fire y'all
It's all here on the vinyl
(No crisis) ...
You can't always get it
When you really want it
You can't always get it at all
Just because there's space
In your life it's a waste
To spend your time why don't you wait for the call
(Just gotta get used to it)
Gotta get used to waiting
(Just gotta get used to it)
You know how the ice is
(Just gotta get used to it)
It's thin where you're skating
(This is no social crisis) ...
Just another tricky day for you fellah

Décrocher Les Étoiles
Décrocher Les Étoiles
Composer(s): Claude Moine - Pierre Papadiamandis
Performer(s): Eddy Mitchell; Los Angeles
Décrocher les étoiles, faire s'entrouvrir la mer
J'aime les obstacles
Mais les miracles
Ca, j'ai jamais su faire
Déplacer les montagnes, j'te dis pas les travaux!
J'suis du spectacle
Faut pas qu'j'bacle
Mais le devis est trop chaud
En clair, faudrait qu' je t'aime
Un peu comme un héros
Mais voilà, Dieu n'peut pas m'aider cette semaine
Il est "surbooké" mais m'rappellera bientôt
C'est pas qu'je me décourage
Mais t'en d'mandes un peu trop
J't'ai menti, j'sais pas décrocher les étoiles
Déjà tout p'tit, j'montais mal les "mécanos"
Décrocher les étoiles, c'est un métier qui s'perd
C'est bien dommage
Tout d'vient trop sage
Les rêves n'ont plus d' repaire
Décrocher les étoiles
C'est t'emm'ner en bateau
J'veux pas qu't'es d'moi une image sur un nuage
Sujet au vertige, j'peux pas monter si haut
C'est pas qu'je me décourage
Mais t'en demande un peu trop
J't'ai menti, j'sais pas décrocher les étoiles
Déjà tout p'tit, j'montais mal les "mécanos"

True Love That's A Wonder
Composer(s): H. Vermeulen
Performer(s): Sandy Coast
We have been quiet a few days together
But I can't help to think you don't like it this way
First you made me feel this was all forever
It's so sad to know that it's different today
That's why I wonder what you gonna do when I say when I say
Do what you wanna do
Make everybody love you
Nobody is important but you
True love that's a wonder
True love that's a wonder these days
We used to have such very long talks together
But now many times we don't know nothing to say
That is why I wonder what you gonna do
When I say, when I say yeah
Do what you wanna do
Make everybody love you
Nobody is important but you
True love that's a wonder
True love that's a wonder these days
Do what you wanna do
Make everybody love you
Nobody is important but you
True love that's a wonder
True love that's a wonder
True love that's a wonder these days

Another Town, Another Train
Another Town, Another Train
Composer(s): Benny Andersson - Björn Ulvaeus
First release by: Björn & Benny - Agnetha & Frida - 1973
Day is dawning and I must go
You're asleep but still I'm sure you'll know
Why it had to end this way
You and I had a groovy time
But I told you somewhere down the line
You would have to find me gone
I just have to move along
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
When you wake I know you'll cry
And the words I wrote to say goodbye
They won't comfort you at all
But in time you will understand
That the dreams we dreamed were made of sand
For a no-good bum like me
To live is to be free
Just another town, another train
Waiting in the morning rain
Lord give my restless soul a little patience
Just another town, another train
Nothing lost and nothing gained
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
Guess I will spend my life in railway stations
