Let's Get Serious
Let's Get Serious
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder - Lee Garrett)
Performer(s): Jermaine Jackson
Close my eyes, and I see your face at night
Toss and turn, fall to sleep holding my pillow tight
All the time I think of you
You're with me no matter what I do
Walk around with a smile upon my face
In my mind you have taken up permanent space!
Now my life is filled with nothing less
Than your sweet love, care, and tenderness
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Call my name and I lose all self control!
Touch my hand, and I feel it deep down in my soul
I am feeling what I can't explain
And if what you're feeling is the same
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
S-e-r-i-o-u-s, baby, let's get serious!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahhhhhhhhh!
Aaow!
In your arms is the place I want to be
With my love in you and your love inside of me
Longing for each other just ain't fair
When we've got so much we want to share
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Just the thought of us together, we'd cement our love forever
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Once we start there'll be no quitting, with the love that we'll be getting
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
S-e-r-i-o-u-s, baby, let's get serious!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahhhhhhhhh!
Aaow!
The night is young, but not quite too young for you and me
Let's be one---be one!---going places that we want to see
Let our bodies travel with our minds
To a place where love will always shine!
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love
Let's get serious, let's get serious
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Both of us feel like a scalding, 'cause it's just too hot for holding!
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Girl, you've got my body moaning; just believe when I start calling!
Let's get serious and fall in love!
Serious, serious
Let's get serious and fall in love! ...

Let's Kiss And Make Up
Let's Kiss And Make Up
Composer(s): Marjorie McCoy - Norman Meade - Willie Schofield
Performer(s): Bobby Vinton
Last night we had a quarrel
And I lost my head
How silly of me to say
The things I said
Let's kiss and make up
Why should we break up
Say it's not too late yet
To forgive and forget
Funny but it doesn't matter now
Who was wrong or right
Darling all that matters now
Is that I miss you tonight
Let's kiss and make up
Why should we break up
Say it's not too late yet
To forgive and forget
'Cause I'd do anything
To be with you again
Let's kiss and make up
Why should we break up
Say it's not too late yet
To forgive and forget

Let's Get Rocked
Let's Get Rocked
Composer(s): Joe Elliott - Phil Collen - Rick Savage - Robert John "Mutt" Lange
Performer(s): Def Leppard
Do you wanna get rocked?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I'm your average ordinary everyday kid
Happy to do nothin', in fact that's what I did
I got a million ways to make my day
But daddy don't agree
'Cause when I try to get away
He says he got plans for me
"Get your butt right out of bed"
Stop buggin' me
"Get up and move your sleepy head"
Don't shake my tree
He said "Mow the lawn" - who me?
"Walk the dog" - not my style, man
"Take out the trash" - no way
"Tidy your room" - c'mon get real
Sorry dad, gotta disappear
Let's get the rock out of here
Seven day weekend, up all night
In at the deep end, hang on tight
It won't take a minute, it won't take long
So get on in it, come on, come on, come on
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Get it night'n'day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
I'm your average ordinary everyday dude
Drivin' with my baby to get her in the mood
She's dialin' through my radio
And I'm ready to make my move
But what she got ain't rock'n'roll
And it really blew my groove
It was Chopin, Mozart, Beethoven
It makes me wanna scream
Bach, Tschaikovsky, violins
Turn it off, that ain't my scene
Well I'm sorry girl here's my confession
I suppose a rock's out of the question
Seven day weekend, up all night
In at the deep end, hang on tight
It won't take a minute, it won't take long
So get on in it, come on, come on, come on
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Get it night'n'day
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
All I wanna do is take a ride into the blue
Every time I want to love you
I get stuck inside my room
Heaven knows I'm sick 'n' tired of dancin' with this broom
I feel lucky today
Hey look at that, man
Do you wanna get rocked?
Do you wanna get rocked?
It won't take you a minute
It won't take that long
So get on, get with it
Oh, come on everybody
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you wanna, do you wanna?
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Get on top of it
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Love to rock your body baby
Let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Let's go all the way
Let's do it night'n'day
Let's get out and play
Rock the night away
Come on, let's get, let's get, let's get, let's get rocked
Do you wanna get rocked?

Let's Keep It That Way (Tanya Tucker)
Let's Keep It That Way
Composer(s): Rafe Van Hoy - Curly Putman
First release by: Tanya Tucker - 1977
Covered by multiple other artists
There's no need to lie
Without me half trying, I could love you
It shows in your eyes
That you feel the same way I do
But wherever I go, my conscience goes
What more can I say
It's only desire, not yet a fire
Let's keep it that way
'Cause I don't want to have to tell him a lie
When I get back home
'Cause it would tear apart his fairy tale world
If I did him wrong
And lying to him would hurt me more
Than leaving you this way
So before we forget, we're not cheaters yet
Let's keep it that way
Let's finish this wine
'Cause I'm not thinking too clearly tonight
And the touch of your hand
Makes it so hard for me to tell wrong from right
He waits at home and he's there alone
And though I'd like to stay
Before I give in
Let's call it just friends
And keep it that way

and multiple other artists
Let's get lost, lost in each other's arms
Let's get lost, let them send out alarms
And though they'll think us rather rude
Let's tell the world we're in that crazy mood
Let's defrost in a romantic mist
Let's get crossed off everybody's list
To celebrate this night we found each other, mmm, let's get lost
Let's defrost in a romantic mist
Let's get crossed off everybody's list
To celebrate this night we found each other, mm, let's get lost
oh oh, let's get lost

Broadway Melody
Broadway Melody

Performer(s): Charles King
and multiple other artists
There may be streets that have their sorrow
A smile today a tear tomorrow
But there's a street that lives in glory
It always tells the same old story
Don't bring a frown to old Broadway
You've got to clown on Broadway
Your troubles there are out of style
'Cause Broadway always wears a smile
A million lights they flicker there
A million hearts beat quicker there
No skies of grey on the Great White Way
That's the Broadway Melody

Let's Keep It That Way (Lou Praeger)
Let’s Keep It That Way
Composer(s): Desmond O'Connor - J. Denby-Watson
Performer(s): Lou Praeger & His Orch.; Paul Rich
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way
We stood together
Through stormy weather
And every heart was torn
The guns were flashing
The world was crashing
But out of the darkness a new world was born
The city lights are shining
The children laugh and play
The countryside is peaceful
Let’s keep it that way
Inside a million windows
They put a sign to say
A welcome home to someone
Let’s keep it that way
No more must mothers sigh
Nor sweethearts walk alone
Let’s put their happiness
Above the things we own
Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way
Some gave so much remember
How can we best repay
Let’s build the world they dreamed of
Let’s keep it that way

Broadway Hotel
Broadway Hotel
Composer(s): Al Stewart
Performer(s): Al Stewart
You told the man in the Broadway Hotel
Nothing was stranger than being yourself
And he replied, with a tear in his eye
Love was a rollaway
Just a cajole away
Mist on a summer's day
Nothing was clear
Love was a smile away
Just a defile away
I sought it every way
No-one came near
You asked the man for a room with a view
Nothing was said as he stared at his shoe
Then he replied as he gave you the key
Love was a rollaway
Just an unfold away
That's all there is to say
No-one came near
Alone in your room you hide
As the night rolls by
In the street outside
And you feel over the words he said
Till they turn to rain all around your head
You're seeking a hideaway
Where the light of day
Doesn't touch your face
And a door-sign keeps the world away
Behind the shades
Of your silent day
You made your home in the Broadway Hotel
Room service came at the push of a bell
And the man said as he put down the tray
Love was a stealaway
Just a reveal away
I tried to find a way
Nothing was clear
Then as he turned away
You asked the man to stay
He was there all the day
No-one came near

Broadway Baby
Broadway Baby
Composer(s): Stephen Sondheim
I'm just a Broadway Baby
Walking off my tired feet
Pounding Forty Second Street
To be in a show
Broadway Baby
Learning how to sing and dance
Waiting for that one big chance
To be in a show
Gee, I'd like to be on some marquee
All twinkling lights
A spark to pierce the dark
From Batt'ry Park to Washington Heights
Some day maybe
All my dreams will be repaid
I can get to strut my stuff
Working for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show
Say, Mister producer
Some girls get the breaks
Just give me my cue, sir
I've got what it takes
Say, Mister Producer
I'm talkin' to you, sir
I don't need a lot
Only what I got
Plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow spot!
I'm a Broadway Baby
Slaving at the five and ten
Dreaming of the great day
When I'll be in a show
Broadway Baby
Making rounds all afternoon
Eating at a greasy spoon
To save on my dough
At my tiny flat there's just my cat
A bed and a chair
Still I'll stick it till
I'm on a bill all over Times Square
Some day maybe
If I stick it long enough
I can get to strut my stuff
Work-ing for a nice man
Like a Ziegfeld or a Weissman
In a big-time Broadway show!
Heck, I'd even play the maid
To be in a show
Say, Mister producer
Some girls get the breaks
Just give me my cue, sir
I've got what it takes
Say, Mister Producer
I'm talkin' to you, sir
I don't need a lot
Only what I got
Plus a tube of greasepaint and a follow spot!

Je staat op de eerste rij
Een vriendinnetje erbij
Altijd giechelen met twee
Je lacht uitdagend lang naar mij
Werkt je make-up nog wat bij
'k Schat je vijftien ongeveer
Meer dan leuk om te zien
Morgen huil je misschien
En dan ben ik je kwijt, voor altijd
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Ik heb je Barbara genoemd
Je gaf me bloemen en een zoen
'k Zou die zo graag overdoen, oooh oooh
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Er zijn er zoveel zoals jij
Jonge meisjes vrank en vrij
Maar vanbinnen zo fragiel
Blote schouders, slanke nek
Je maakt de mannen stapelgek
Spelen met je sex-appeal
Maar de dag zal nog komen
Je ontwaakt uit je dromen
Want een meisje wordt zo gauw een vrouw
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Barbara (wie ben je, wie ben je)
Ik heb je Barbara genoemd
Je gaf me bloemen en een zoen
'k Zou die zo graag overdoen, oooh oooh

Brivido Felino
Brivido Felino
Composer(s): Paolo Audino; Stefano Cenci
Performer(s): Mina & Adriano Celentano
Ormai avevo pensato
ho voglia solo io di te
invece sento il profumo
che hai messo su stasera per me
Provo a fare finta che
ti resisto un po'
ma in fondo poi perché
qui è già calda l'atmosfera
sto con te stasera ci sto
Con un brivido felino sento che mi vuoi
la luce del camino spande su di noi
hai la voce che ti frema stringi le mie mani
mi chiami, mi chiami piano lo so
ora che anche tu mi vuoi
Adesso mentre mi baci
capisco che mi piaci perché
(quel mistero dentro te)
è affascinante davvero
sei quella che speravo per me
Provo a fare finta che
ti resisto ma
il gioco mi delude
e già calda l'atmosfera
da te vorrei stasera di più
Con un brivido felino sento che mi vuoi
il fuoco del camino brucia insieme a noi
hai la voce che ti frema
stringi le mie mani mi ami, mi ami
Con un brivido felino ora che ti dai
ti sento travolgente vero come sei
ho l'impulso di fermarti ma tanto non potrei
se ti muovi, ti muovi, come tu sai
e ti sento che mi vuoi
Brivido felino, brivido felino, brivido felino
brivido felino
Con un brivido felino, io potrei morire da
adesso per come mi prendi e ti dai
e ti sento che mi vuoi
