Are You Mad At Me?


Are You Mad At Me?
Composer(s): John Anderson - Luther Vandross
Performer(s): Luther Vandross



I was lost until the day I found you
And I know you know
There's not a thing for you that I wouldn't do
But, yesterday was rough on me
I was under the weather
So my dear, I didn't have much to say

And I rushed you off of the phone last night
So I called you back to apologize
But your line stayed busy through the night, you see
And it makes me wonder
Are you mad at me?

I was right to fall in love this way
And one thing's for sure
The angels smiled on me
When you came my way
So my dear, tonight's the night
It's gonna be special
I can't wait to see the face of my love

But even though I tried, sorry I was late
And I understand that you couldn't wait
But you're pulling back, honey I can see
And it makes me worry
Are you mad at me?

I wish I could be perfect for you
Can't you see how hard I try?

When you talk to me I can hear the pain
When I look in your face I can see the strain
And I can hear the cries of the willow tree
Something's wrong I know it
Are you mad at me? ...

Dime Padre


Dime Padre Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute



Dime padre
Dime, padre, si en el cementerio
viven los muertos
Dime, padre, si en los campos yermos
uno son los dueños
y otros son los siervos
Dime, padre, si es que yo me muero
cuando me despierto

Are You Lovin' Me Too


Are You Lovin' Me Too
Composer(s): Del Shannon
Performer(s): Del Shannon



I lay here every night
you're dancing in my sleep
You walk into a room
and I can hardly speak
Don't you know what I've been thinking
Ifyou don't know I'll tell you now
When you speak I hear angels singing
I can see it when I look into your eyes

Then I wanna hold you
I wanna be with you
I'm in love with you
Are you lovin' me too?

I don't know
what it is but when you
started comin' around
I took one look at you
now my feet ain't touchin' the ground
I think you know what I've been feelin'
do you feel the same way too
Do you feel the way my heart is beatin'
Can't you see it when you look into my eyes?

Then I wanna hold you
I wanna be with you
I'm in love with you
Are you lovin' me too?

I know there's something in your heart to me
You know you can't deny the things you see
so come to me

Then I wanna hold you
I wanna be with you
I'm in love with you
Are you lovin' me too?

Then I wanna hold you
I wanna be with you
I'm in love with you
Are you lovin' me too?

Then I wanna hold you
I wanna be with you
I'm in love with you
Are you lovin' me too?

Dime Amigo


Dime Amigo
Composer(s): Miguel Gallardo
Performer(s): Miguel Gallardo



Cielo, tierra, río y mar
hombre, niño ayúdame
quién soy yo y qué hago aquí
quién me puede responder
qué es nacer y qué es morir
qué es principio y qué es final
qué es la vida, quién es Dios
a dónde voy, qué hay más allá
Me pregunto si quizás vivir
no es un sueño más
que acaba al morir
Dime amigo, dime como encontrar
respuestas dentro de mi
salir de la oscuridad
Dime amigo, dime como conseguir
respuestas para entender
las preguntas que hay en mi
Dime amigo, dime como conseguir
Me pregunto si quizás vivir
no es un sueño más
que acaba al morir
Dime amigo, dime como encontrar
respuestas dentro de mi
salir de la oscuridad
Dime amigo, dime como conseguir
respuestas para entender
las preguntas que hay en mi

Can't Go On Without You


Can't Go On Without You
Composer(s): Fats Domino - Dorothy Randazzo
Performer(s): Fats Domino



Can't believe that you've gone gone
Darlin' I was so wrong
Feelin' like I do
Can't go on without you

Darlin' now that you've gone gone
I don't wont to live on
Don't know what to do
Can't go on without you

You can tellin' me and tellin' me
Someday tears are cryin'
But I was the foolish one
To let you say goodbye

Sorry now that you've gone gone
I know I was so wrong
Feelin' sad and blue
Can't go on without you

Dime
Composer(s): José Luis Perales
Performer(s): José Luis Perales



Dime, por qué la gente no sonrie
Por qué las armas en las manos
Por qué los hombres malheridos, dime

Dime, por qué los niños maltratados
Por qué los viejos olvidados
Por qué los sueños prohibidos, dime

Dimelo Dios quiero saber
Dime por que te niegas a escuchar
Aún queda alguien que tal vez rezará
Dimelo Dios quiero saber
dónde se encuentra toda la verdad
Aún queda alguien que tal vez lo sabrá

Dime, por que los cielos ya no lloran
Por qué los rios ya no cantan
Por qué los has dejado solos, dime

Dime, por que las manos inactivas
Por qué el mendigo de la calle
Por qué las bombas radiactivas, dime

Dimelo Dios quiero saber
Dime por que te niegas a escuchar
Aún queda alguien que tal vez rezará
Dimelo Dios quiero saber
dónde se encuentra toda la verdad
Aún queda alguien que tal vez lo sabrá

Pero yo, no

Dime, por qué la gente no sonrie
Por qué las armas en las manos
Por qué los hombres malheridos, dime

Dime, por qué los niños maltratados
Por qué los viejos olvidados
Por qué los sueños prohibidos, dime

Dime, por que los cielos ya no lloran
Por qué los rios ya no cantan
Por qué los has dejado solos, dime

Are you lonesome tonight
Do you miss me tonight
Are you sorry
We drifted apart

Does your memory stray
To a bright summer day
When I kissed you
And called you sweetheart

Do the chairs in your parlor
Seem empty and bare
Do you gaze at your doorstep
And picture me there

Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight

Is your heart filled with pain
Shall I come back again
Tell me dear
Are you lonesome tonight

Spiel Noch Einmal Für Mich, Habanero


Spiel Noch Einmal Für Mich, Habanero
Composer(s): Kurt Feltz; Heinz Gietz
Performer(s): Caterina Valente; James Last



Wer kennt der Tage Last
Die Du getragen hast
Wer kennt des Chickos Not und Leid

Wer kennt der Schatten Macht
In blauer Tropennacht
Wer kennt der Sterne Gunst und Neid

Spiel noch einmal für mich, Habanero
Denn ich hör' so gern Dein Lied
Spiel noch einmal für mich von dem Wunder
Das doch nie für Dich geschieht

Wer spürt der Sonne Kraft
Die tausend Wunder schafft
Und doch des Rückens Kraft Dir beugt

Wer spürt der Wolken Blick
Der oft schon Dein Geschick
Und Deiner Tage Ziel Dir zeigt

Spiel noch einmal für mich, Habanero
Denn ich hör' so gern Dein Lied
Spiel noch einmal für mich von dem Wunder
Das doch nie für Dich geschieht

Wer weiß, ob es nicht scheint
Als ob der Himmel weint
Wenn Dich der Erde Staub erst deckt

Wer weiß, ob dann das Lied
Das zu den Sternen zieht
Nicht aus der dunklen Nacht Dich weckt

Spiel noch einmal für mich, Habanero
Denn ich hör' so gern Dein Lied

Performer(s): Michele - 1965

Versions In Other Languages:

1981 - Ben Je Eenzaam Vannacht (by Will Tura)



È finita così
senza un vero perchè
ma ogni notte
ti sento con me
E mi chiedo se tu
anche tu come me
resti sveglia
e mi pensi con te

Sono lunghe le ore
se tu non sei qui
non ha senso la vita
vissuta così
Se sei sola anche tu
anche tu come me
vuoi che torni
che torni da te?

Ti senti sola, stasera
ti senti sola come me?
Questa stanza sembra buia
senza il tuo sorriso
Guardo la tua poltrona vuota
e sento tutta la solitudine del mondo
Se mi hai amato, dovresti desiderare
di essere ancora fra le mie braccia

Se sei sola anche tu
anche tu come me
vuoi che torni
che torni da te?

Winter In America


Winter In America
((Dutch Version: Winter Hier In Holland Is Zo Koud (by Gerard Cox) - 1987))
Composer(s): Doug Ashdown - Jim Stewart
First release by: Doug Ashdown - 1974
Covered by multiple other artists



The harbour's misty in the morning love, oh, how I miss December
The frangipani opens up to kiss the salty air
I know you're gettin' ready for the office
I suppose he's still there, with you
Sharing our morningsun

Winter in America is cold
And I just keep growing older
I wish I could have known
Enough of love to leave love enough alone

I've learned something of love I wish I'd known before you left me
But it's funny how you don't know what you've got untill it's gone
And I hope you're getting all the love you ever wanted
But I wish I was there with you
Sharing our morningsun

I wake into the sadness of the rain
And making love to strangers
And wishing I could have known
Enough of love to leave love enough alone

Winter in America is cold
And I just keep growing older
I wish I could have known
Enough of love to leave love enough alone

Winter in America is cold
And I just keep growing older
I wish I could have known
Enough of love to leave love enough alone

Dimanche À Orly


Dimanche À Orly ((German Version: Die Luft Von Orly (Gilbert Bécaud) - 1964)) Composer(s): Gilbert Bécaud - Pierre Delanoë Performer(s): Gilbert Bécaud; Gilbert Sigrist



À l'escalier 6, bloc 21
J'habite un très chouette appartement
Que mon père, si tout marche bien
Aura payé en moins de vingt ans
On a le confort au maximum
Un ascenseur et un' sall' de bain
On a la télé, le téléphone
Et la vue sur Paris, au lointain
Le dimanche, ma mère fait du rangement
Pendant que mon père, à la télé
Regarde les sports religieusement
Et moi j'en profit' pour m'en aller

Je m'en vais l' dimanche à Orly
Sur l'aéroport, on voit s'envoler
Des avions pour tous les pays
Pour l'après-midi...
J'ai de quoi rêver
Je me sens des fourmis dans les idées
Quand je rentre chez moi la nuit tombée

À sept heures vingt-cinq, tous les matins
Nicole et moi, on prend le métro
Comme on dort encore, on n'se dit rien
Et chacun s'en va vers ses travaux
Quand le soir je retrouve mon lit
J'entends les Bœings chanter là-haut
Je les aime, mes oiseaux de nuit
Et j'irai les retrouver bientôt

Oui j'irai dimanche à Orly
Sur l'aéroport, on voit s'envoler
Des avions pour tous les pays
Pour toute une vie...
Y a de quoi rêver
Un jour, de là-haut, le bloc vingt et un
Ne sera qu'un tout petit point

First release by: Freddie Scott - 1966
Covered by multiple other artists



Are you lonely for me baby?
Yes I am
Are you lonely for me baby?
Coming home baby
Are you lonely for me baby?
Oh it's the last train to Jacksonville
I'm gonna get on it baby, you know I will
Will you try, come on and try
To forget all the pain I brought you
Go on and cry, go ahead and cry baby
I know that I'm the one who taught you
To be lonely baby, lonely and blue
I'm lonely baby, I'm lonely for you

Are you lonely for me baby?
Yes I am
Are you lonely for me baby?
Coming home baby
Are you lonely for me baby?
Oh it's my last buck, to Jacksonville
Are you my sweet baby, are you still
Tell your friend, it's the end
I will never again desert you
He will laugh, I can hear him laughing baby
He'll say that I was born to hurt you
Oh I'm sorry baby, sorry and blue
Hey I'm lonely baby, lonely for you

Are you lonely for me baby?
Hold on baby
Are you lonely for me baby?
I'm coming home, I'm coming home, I'm coming home
Are you lonely for me baby?
Coming, coming, coming, coming, coming, coming
It's a long ride to Jacksonville
No one will ever know the way I feel
Will you be there, will you be there
When I get off the train
You see you've gotta be there, you've gotta be there
I've just gotta see you again girl
'Cause I'm lonely baby, lonely and blue
I love you baby and I'm lonely for you

Dim, Dim The Lights (I Want Some Atmosphere)


Dim, Dim The Lights (I Want Some Atmosphere)
Composer(s): Julius Edward Dixon - Beverly "Ruby" Ross
First recording/First release by: Bill Haley and His Comets - 1954



Oh, what a crazy party all the gang's here, too
The beat is really jumping like a kangaroo
I'm full of cherry soda and potato chips
But now I want to get a taste of your sweet lips

So, dim, dim the lights!! - dim, dim the lights...
Dim, dim the lights!! - dim, dim the lights...
Turn down the lights...
...I want some atmosphere!!
The furniture is bouncing round the room with glee
And rocking like a boat upon a stormy sea
But, dig the crazy pockets on the pile tonight
But still I haven't had a chance to hold you tight

Look at Annie's earrings bouncing off her backs
Look at Suzie kissing and a-hugging Jack
Looking Nancy dancing in her stocking feet...
...we're all going crazy with the mambo beat!!!
But, everybody's really having lots of fun
But, honey as for me the night has just begun
'Cause now I want to tell you things and hold you tight
But, how can I do it with the room so bright?

Bij De Winter Hoort De Sneeuw


Bij De Winter Hoort De Sneeuw
Composer(s): Pierre Kartner
Performer(s): Corry en de Rekels



Bij de winter hoort de sneeuw
't Water hoort toch bij een meeuw
Bij de lente hoort de mei
Maar jij, jij hoort bij mij

Sterren horen bij de nacht
Een kindje hoort bij klein en zacht
Een veulen hoort toch in de wei
Maar jij, jij hoort bij mij

Duizenden jaren is dit al zo gegaan
Niets kan alleen en zonder elkaar bestaan
Maar 't mooiste van alles is, dat ik van je hou
En daarom past eeuwig toch altijd 't beste bij trouw

Een moeder hoort toch bij een kind
't Einde komt als je begint
Tranen horen bij de rouw
Maar ik hou van jou

Bij de winter hoort de sneeuw
't Water hoort toch bij een meeuw
Bij de lente hoort de mei
Maar jij, jij hoort bij mij

Duizenden jaren is dit al zo gegaan
Niets kan alleen en zonder elkaar bestaan
Maar 't mooiste van alles is, dat ik van je hou
En daarom past eeuwig toch altijd 't beste bij trouw

Bij de winter hoort de sneeuw
't Water hoort toch bij een meeuw
Bij de lente hoort de mei
Maar jij, jij hoort bij mij
Maar jij, jij hoort bij mij...

So Fängt Es Immer An


So Fängt Es Immer An ((Adapted from: Menuett in G-Dur (J.S. Bach) - 1725)) ((English Version: A Lover's Concerto (by The Toys) - 1965)) Composer(s): Christian Petzold - Denny Randell - Sandy Linzer Performer(s): Alma Cogan



So fängt es immer an
Ein Boy will nicht mehr so allein sein
Er schaut dich fragend an und hält deine Hand
so wie im Roman

So fängt es immer an
Er spricht nur von der großen Liebe
Erst glaubst du nicht daran, später kommen dann rote Rosen an

So fängt es immer an
Er wird dich immer wieder küssen
Dein Mund sagt nicht mehr nein, du wirst selig sein, weil er dir gefällt

So fängt es immer an
Auch du willst nicht mehr so allein sein
und wartest Tag und Nacht, bis er endlich sagt, was dich glücklich macht

So fängt es immer an
Ein Boy will nicht mehr so allein sein
Er schaut dich fragend an und hält deine Hand so wie im Roman

So fängt es immer an
Er spricht nur von der großen Liebe
Erst glaubst du nicht daran, später kommen dann rote Rosen an

So fängt es immer an
Er wird dich immer wieder küssen
Dein Mund sagt nicht mehr nein, du wirst selig sein, weil er dir gefällt

So fängt es immer an
Auch du willst nicht mehr ...

Are You Havin' Any Fun?


Are You Havin' Any Fun?
Composer(s): Sammy Fain - Jack Yellin
Performer(s): Ella Logan & The Three Stooges
and multiple other artists



Hey fellow with a million smackers
And nervous indigestion
Rich fellow, eats milk and crackers
I'll ask you one question
You silly so and so
With all your dough....

Are you havin' any fun?
What y'gettin' out o' livin'?
What good is what you've got
If you're not havin' any fun?

Are you havin' any laughs?
Are you gettin' any lovin'?
If other people do,
So can you, have a little fun

After the honey's in the cone
Little bees go out and play
Even the old grey mare down home
Has got to have hay....HEY!

You better have some fun
You ain't gonna live forever
Before you're old and gray, feel okay
Have your little fun, son!
Have your little fun!

Why do you work and slave and save?
Life is full of ifs and buts
You know the squirrels save and save
And what have they got.....Nuts!

Better have a little fun
You ain't gonna live forever
Before you're old and grey, still okay
Have your little fun, son!
Have your little fun!
Are you havin' any fun?

Ich Liebe Das Leben


Ich Liebe Das Leben
Composer(s): Leo Leandros; Klaus Murro
Performer(s): Vicky Leandros; Rabaue



Dein Koffer wartet schon im Flur du Iäßt mich allein
Wir sehn uns an und fühlen nur es muß wohl so sein
Noch stehst du zögernd in der Tür und fragst was wird aus dir?

Nein, sorg dich nicht um mich, du weißt ich liebe das Leben
und weine ich manchmal noch um dich, das geht vorüber sicherlich
Was kann mir schon geschehn? Glaub mir ich liebe das Leben
Das Karussell wird sich weiterdrehn auch wenn wir auseinandergehn

Mag sein daß man sich selber oft viel zu wichtig nimmt
Verzweifelt auf ein Feuer hofft wo es nur noch glimmt
Wenn so was auch sehr weh tun kann man stirbt nicht gleich daran

Nein, sorg dich nicht um mich, du weißt ich liebe das Leben
und weine ich manchmal noch um dich, das geht vorüber sicherlich
Was kann mir schon geschehn? Glaub mir ich liebe das Leben
Das Karussell wird sich weiterdrehn auch wenn wir auseinandergehn

Vielleicht gefällt's mir wieder frei zu sein
vielleicht verlieb ich mich auf's neu man wird ja sehn
Die Welt ist schön wie's kommt ist einerlei
La la la
Du weißt ich liebe das Leben
La la la la la la ...

Ich frag dich: Was kann mir schon geschehn? Glaub mir ich liebe das Leben
Das Karussell wird sich weiterdrehn auch wenn wir auseinandergehn
auch wenn wir auseinandergehn
Du weißt ich liebe das Leben

My Broken Souvenirs


My Broken Souvenirs
Composer(s): Werner Theunissen
Performer(s): Pussycat; Demis Roussos



For each moment of tears
I still had my souvenirs
Cherished in a pocket full of dreams
I could hold I could feel
Kept pretending they were real
Long time after lovers stayed away
Now a picture of you
I had cherished so true
Even kissed 'till I'd seen you again
But when

I've been crying today
Threw my memories away
Something died as I cried
For my broken souvenirs
Can I reach for the sun
Find a place I belong
Now you're one of my broken souvenirs
If you'll need me again
There's no way you really can
Pasted pieces never make a whole
And if you leave your room
On some windy afternoon
Try to see where all the pieces flew
It was hard to get on
Since my memories were gone
But if you'll ever see me again
I can

I've been crying today ...
