Beyond The Call
Beyond The Call
Composer(s): David Batteau; Darrell Brown; Kevin Dukes
Performer(s): John Farnham
I'm searching for the anger
Consider it a gift
Open up that window
Come betray me with a kiss
You have won, if nothing else
Rope enough to hang yourself
What is that to us?
Go beyond the call of love
Beyond the dreams of man
I have seen where glory falls
At the touch of mercy's hand
The truth you would deny me
Lying like a rock
How you gonna wake up
To the one that you forgot
Cover up was your intent
Acting like it's accident
Isn't it enough
Someday when hearts grown stronger
I'll know where darkness wandered
But I won't wait much longer

Belinda (The Spindrifts)
Belinda
Performer(s): The Spindrifts
(Bop-bop-choo-wop, bop-bop-choo-wop)
Well, the first time I saw her
In a pawn shop window
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn
Well, the second time I saw her
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
I don't mean maybe
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn
Ooowww!
Well, the first time I saw her
In a pawn shop window
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn
Well, the second time I saw her
She's my baby, she's my Belinda
I don't mean maybe
Now she's gone
Someone threw her in the pawn
Know what I mean
You know I'm talkin `bout my horn
That big ol' horn
That's what I mean
Blow man
Yeah ...

Star Of The East
Star Of The East
Composer(s): Amanda Kennedy - George Cooper
Performer(s): Judy Garland; Child So Dear
Star of the east, oh Bethlehem star
Guiding us on to heaven afar
Sorrow and grief are lulled by thy light
Now hope of each mortal in death's lonely night
Fearless and tranquil, we look up to thee
Knowing thou beams through eternity
Help us to follow where thou still dost guide
Pilgrims of earth so wide
Oh, star that leads to God above
Whose rays are peace and joy and love
Watch o'er us still till life has ceased
Beam on bright star, sweet Bethlehem star
Star of the east, thou hope of the soul
While round us here the dark billows roll
Lead us from sin to glory afar
Thou star of the east, thou sweet Bethlehem star

Ciao Amore Ciao
Ciao Amore Ciao
Composer(s): Christian Anders
Performer(s): Christian Anders
wenn tränen sprechen könnten
dann sagten sie zu mir
wir dürfen uns nicht trennen
bitte bleib bei mir
doch wir wussten beide
es war ein glück auf zeit
wir dachten nicht an morgen
und darum sag ich heut
oh
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao
was uns zwei verbindet
fühlen wir genau
wenn auch unsere spuren
heut der wind verweht
ich weiss meine liebe
sie wird nie vergehen
mandolinen singen
durch die sommernacht
doch ihr lied heisst abschied
wenn der tag erwacht
morgen fährt ein zug
dich in deine welt
doch etwas bleibt in dir
das für immer zählt
oh
ciao amore ciao
du bist für mich die frau
die ich nie vergesse
ciao amore ciao
vielleicht eines tages
erfüllt sich unser traum
dann sehen wir uns wieder
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao ciao amore ciao ciao amore ciao
ohohoho
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao
was uns zwei verbindet
fühlen wir genau
wenn auch unsere spuren
heut der wind verweht
ich weiss meine liebe
sie wird nie vergehen
oh
ciao amore ciao
du bist für mich die frau
die ich nie vergesse
ciao amore ciao
ciao amore ciao

Something Wonderful Happens
Something Wonderful Happens
Performer(s): Nancy Wilson
When your arms caress me
Something wonderful happens
I can feel a thrill so heavenly!
When your lips possess me
Something wonderful happens
Though it rains, it's beautiful to see!
Even the showers
Can bring a thrilling refrain
A street without flowers
Becomes a garden in Spain!
Strange what love can do, dear
And 'cause I love you, dear
Something wonderful happens to me
Something wonderful happens to me!

Bevor Du Einschläfst
Bevor Du Einschläfst
Performer(s): Bernd Clüver
Tausend kleine Sterne seh'n Dich jeden Abend schlafen geh'n
Tausend kleine Sterne, die möchten Dich so gerne glücklich seh'n
Immerzu hält einer unter ihnen Wacht
daß Dich niemand kränkt und niemand traurig macht
Das sieht er genau jede Nacht
Bevor Du einschläfst, denk immer daran
daß Du mir gehörst und daß Du glücklich wirst
wie es nur irgendwie geht
Bevor Du einschläfst, vergiß bitte nie
daß ein guter Stern
über uns und uns'rer Liebe steht
Einer unter ihnen ist der kleine Stern, der Träume schenkt
Und da ist ein and'rer, der so gut er kann, Dein Schicksal lenkt
Durch Dein kleines Fenster, da schaut ein dritter rein
Und er sagt Dir leise, Du wirst glücklich sein
mit dem, der Dich liebt ganz allein
Bevor Du einschläfst, denk immer daran
daß Du mir gehörst und daß Du glücklich wirst
wie es nur irgendwie geht
Bevor Du einschläfst, vergiß bitte nie
daß ein guter Stern
über uns und uns'rer Liebe steht

Sleep, My Baby, Sleep
Sleep, My Baby, Sleep
Composer(s): Archie Pokan - Eddie Pola - Franz Vienna
Performer(s): Judy Garland & Harry Sosnick
There's an old love refrain that is known the whole world over
It's sweetness both princes and peasants may claim
Like a bird on the wing or a bee in the clover
No matter the language the song is the same
Go to sleep, my baby go to sleep
While the stars above begin to peep
They're lighting the windows of heaven
Angels watch over you from the windows of heaven
Mother's watching you too
Sleep, my baby, sleep
From the windows of heaven, mother's watching you too
Sleep, my baby, sleep

Du Bist Meine Liebe
Du Bist Meine Liebe
Performer(s): Renate Kern
Du bist meine Liebe der Tag mit dir war wunderbar
ich weiss genau, dass ich noch nie so glücklich war
Und immerzu denk ich daran
dass ich Dich nie im Leben, nie vergessen kann
Du bist meine Liebe, du, nur du allein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein
Seit jenem Tag ist viel gescheh'n
Doch sagt mein Herz mir, dass wir uns bald wiederseh'n
Bist du auch heut' wer weiss wie weit
nicht einer Stunde unserer Träume tut mir leid
Du bist meine Liebe, du, nur du allein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein
Nur in deiner Liebe kann ich glücklich sein

Betty Jo Marshall
Betty Jo Marshall
Composer(s): William Ellis - Dexter Shaffer
Performer(s): Connie Francis
Betty Jo Marshall goes to work from nine to five
Betty Jo Marshall wears a ring she had to buy
Ev'ry evenin' on the other side of town
Betty Jo Marshall becomes Lucinda Brown
Betty Jo Marshall was a hometown beauty queen
Kiss her mama then she left to chase her dream
She wrote home about the good life ev'ry day
Town folks all figured Betty Jo was on her way
[ dobro ] Now time and trouble took the fire out of her eyes
Beauty faded everytime she compromised
Cocktail parties stole the rose out of her cheek
And left a common face of ninety bucks a week
And there were no fur jackets on a secretary's pay
Betty Jo knew she'd have to go back home someday
How could she face up to those she'd left behind
And all those letters full of lies that she had signed
Clothes and money were the least she could expect
And pay was good down at the local discotech
Name and address just in case the man comes round
New York City and my name's Lucinda Brown
[ dobro ] So Betty Jo Marshall sacrifice her high ideals
All across the pain Lucinda Brown conceals
Did she dare give up her job from nine to five
And if she did how long would Lucy Brown survive
Now Betty Jo Marshall made the papers yesterday
Go go dancer found floatin' in the bay
Local beauty will be brought back to home town
Betty Jo Marshall victim of Lucinda Brown
Betty Jo Marshall victim of Lucinda Brown

Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered
Bewitched, Bothered And Bewildered
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
Performer(s): Mel Tormé
and various other artists
After one whole quart of brandy
Like a daisy I’m awake
With no Bromer Seltzer handy
I don’t even shake
Men are not a new sensation
I’ve done pretty well I think
But this half pint imitation
Put me on the blink
I'm wild again, beguiled again
A whimpering, simpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
When love came and told me, I shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
I lost my heart, but what of it, he is cold I agree
He might laugh, but I love it, although the laugh's on me
I'll sing to him, bring spring to him
And long, for the day when I'll cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
He’s a fool and don’t I know it
But a fool can have his charms
I’m in love and don’t I know it
Like a babe in arms
Love’s the same old sad sensation
Lately I’ve not slept a wink
Since this half pint imitation
Put me on the blink
I’ve sinned a lot, I mean a lot
But I’m like sweet seventeen a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
I’ll sing to him, each spring to him
And worship the trousers that cling to him
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
When he talks, he is seeking
Words to get off his chest
Horizontally speaking
He’s at his very best
Vexed again, perplexed again
Thank god I can be oversexed again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - am I
Wise at last, my eyes at last
Are cutting you down to your size at last
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more
Burned a lot but learned a lot
And now you are broke so you earned a lot
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more
Couldn’t eat, was dyspeptic
Life was so hard to bear
Now my heart’s antiseptic
Since you moved out of there
Romance finis
Your chance finis
Those ants that invaded my pants finis
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered - no more

È La Pioggia Che Va
È La Pioggia Che Va
((Adapted from: Remember The Rain (Bob Lind) - 1966))
Composer(s): Bob Lind - Mogol
Performer(s): The Rokes - 1966
and multiple other artists
Sotto una montagna di paure e di ambizioni
c'è nascosto qualche cosa che non muore
Se cercate in ogni sguardo dietro un muro di cartone
troverete tanta luce e tanto amore
Il mondo ormai sta cambiando
e cambierà di più
ma non vedete nel cielo
quelle macchie di blu
è la pioggia che va
e ritorna il sereno
Quante volte ci hanno detto sorridendo tristemente
le speranze dei ragazzi sono fumo
Sono stanchi di lottare e non credono più a niente
proprio adesso che la meta è qui vicino
Ma noi che stiamo correndo
avanzeremo di più
ma non vedete che il cielo
ogni giorno diventa più blu
è la pioggia che va
e ritorna il sereno
è la pioggia che va
(e ritorna il sereno)
Non importa se qualcuno sul cammino della vita
sarà preda dei fantasmi del passato
il denaro ed il potere sono trappole mortali
che per tanto e tanto tempo han funzionato

Rote Rosen, Rote Lippen, Roter Wein
Rote Rosen, Rote Lippen, Roter Wein
Performer(s): René Carol
Sind die weißen Segel gesetzt
Fahren wir jetzt, fahren wir jetzt
Sind die schlanken Boote soweit
Sind sie zur Fahrt bereit
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Und Italiens blaues Meer im Sonnenschein
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Laden uns ein, laden uns ein
Rote Rosen, rote Lippen, roter Wein
Laden uns ein, laden uns ein
Denn wenn die Sterne stehn
Ist Italien doppelt schön
Wenn die Nacht herniederfällt
Vergißt man die Welt
Denn wenn die Sonne sinkt
Und das Lied der Lieder klingt
Ist schon bald die große Macht
Der Liebe erwacht

Remember The Rain
Remember The Rain
Composer(s): Marvin Smith
We used to play out in the rain
Your mother scolded us
She said that we were bad
(She said that we were bad)
I thought I better go on home
You watched till I was gone
Ooh, girl, you looked so sad
I picked you up when you fell
And cut your knee
I told you not to cry
And held you close to me
As I was running
Through the storm
To get my umbrella
(Think about it....)
I stopped in shock
When I saw you with
Another fellow, oh, wow
Can you remember the rain
Can you remember the rain
You left me for somebody else
Now I must face life by myself
You broke so many rules in school
I took the blame for you
I guess I was the fool
You used to sneak me notes in class
I winked my eye and laughed
Those days went by so fast
I heard remarks
That tore us all apart
I'm still trying to put back
The pieces to my heart
And I'll be crying your name, girl
Until my very last breath
(Think about it....)
'Cause my existence without you
Ain't nothing but a little death
Gosh
Can you remember the rain
Can you remember the rain
You left me for somebody else
Now I must face life by myself
Can you remember the rain
(Think about it....)
Can you remember the rain
(Think about it....)
Oh, baby, baby, baby, baby
(Can you remember the rain)
Baby, baby, baby, baby.....

Bewitched (Peggy Lee)
Bewitched
Composer(s): Howard Greenfield; Jack Keller
Performer(s): Peggy Lee
and various other artists
Bewitched, Bewitched, you've got me in your spell
Bewitched, Bewitched, you know your craft so well
Before I knew what I was doing I looked in your eyes
That brand of woo you've been brewin' took me by surprise
You witch, you witch, one thing is for sure
That stuff you pitch just hasn't got a cure
My heart was under lock and key, but somehow it got unhitched
I never thought that I could be had
But now I'm caught and I'm kinda glad
To be Bewitched

Le Chiffon Rouge
Le Chiffon Rouge
Composer(s): Maurice Vidalin - Michel Fugain
Performer(s): Michel Fugain
Accroche à ton cœur un morceau de chiffon rouge
Une fleur couleur de sang
Si tu veux vraiment que ça change et que ça bouge
Lève-toi car il est temps
Allons droit devant vers la lumière
En levant le poing et en serrant les dents
Nous réveillerons la terre entière
Et demain, nos matins chanteront
Compagnon de colère, compagnon de combat
Toi que l'on faisait taire, toi qui ne comptais pas
Tu vas pouvoir enfin le porter
Le chiffon rouge de la liberté
Car le monde sera ce que tu le feras
Plein d'amour de justice et de joie
Accroche à ton cœur un morceau de chiffon rouge
Une fleur couleur de sang
Si tu veux vraiment que ça change et que ça bouge
Lève-toi car il est temps
Tu crevais de faim dans ta misère
Tu vendais tes bras pour un morceau de pain
Mais ne crains plus rien, le jour se lève
Il fera bon vivre demain
Compagnon de colère, compagnon de combat
Toi que l'on faisait taire, toi qui ne comptais pas
Tu vas pouvoir enfin le porter
Le chiffon rouge de la liberté
Car le monde sera ce que tu le feras
Plein d'amour de justice et de joie
