Kuin Silloin Ennen
Kuin Silloin Ennen
First performance by: Jarkko & Laura - 1969
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas
Taas tunnen uudestaan kuin silloin ennen
Kuin eilispäivää ollutkaan ei ois
Nyt luokses tulla saan kuin silloin ennen
Ja tiedän, etten lähde koskaan pois
Silmät loistaa sun - vain sen, en enempää mä nää
Sydän toistaa mun, sen minkä livertää
Tuo sinirinta satakieli
Kaikki taas on niin kuin silloin ennen
Ja toivoa en muuta enää vois
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas
Kaikki taas on niin kuin silloin ennen
Ja toivoa en muuta enää vois
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki yhtä hyvin taas
Kuin silloin ennen, silloin ennen
Silloin ennen, on kaikki hyvin taas

Look At Me Now
Look At Me Now
Composer(s): Roy Wood
Performer(s): Electric Light Orchestra
Someone is waithing lurking in the trees
The spirit of her is walking back to me
Ah look at me now feeling emotion
Ah look at me now
The King of the castle brought her to her knees
Gave the Salvation Army girl a squeeze
Ah look at me now feeling emotion
Ah look at me now
Now she's a sallow face
Scattering her lace - on dewy ground
Ah, I keep searching my head
Now it's spinning around
Lifting her head her countenance redeemed
Re-acted the murder by the silver stream
Ah look at me now displaying emotion
Ah look at me now
Look at me now so cold and yet so brave
Weave me some wings to take me to her grave
Ah look at me now feeling emotion
Ah look at me now
Look at me now

Seven Horses In The Sky
Seven Horses In The Sky
(Dutch Version: 7 Paarden Op De Vlucht - 2003)
Composer(s): Fred Beekmans; Bob Baelemans; Hugo Hubert
Performer(s): The Pebbles - 1968
Got seven horses racing in the sky, yeah
Wich is way too high
Smell of ozone in the air
Jockey, jockey, why ain't you up there?
Hear the clatter of their hoofs
Exploding all around
Hidden in a ditch, I really do admire their fidget
Please don't make them look at me
Got purple horses running in a green pouring sky
Try the heat of their breath, forget the feeling being trampled down
I'll bet you ten to one, you're just too scared to have a try
Search the open field, take a poker in your hand
You'll see they're such a gastronomes!
Seven horses in the sky
Seven horses passing by
Seven horses won't get tired
See how they running
See how they running hasty
See how they running
See how they running way up high
They don't need no feed
The only feed they need
Is my skin to heat
Pa - pa - pa - pa .......
I've got to hear them all around

Look at me, girl
I'm tryin' hard to make you see
That it won't do, my bein' free

I really love you and I want you to know
I'm thinkin' of you, girl, everywhere I go
Look at me, girl
Please don't turn away when I say
That I long to see the day
When our clouds will pass away
And you'll be mine, again I'll pray

I'm thinkin' of you, girl, everywhere I go
Look at me, girl
Please don't turn away when I say

When our clouds will pass away
And you'll be mine, again I'll pray

7 Paarden Op De Vlucht
7 Paarden Op De Vlucht
(Adapted from: Seven Horses In The Sky - 1968)
Composer(s): Fred Beekmans; Bob Baelemans; Hugo Hubert; Dirk Blanchart
Performer(s): De Flandriens - 2003
Arizona is het kookpunt nabij
in de middagzon
elk gebaar is te veel in deze hitte hitte
en daarom
verdwijn ik in de schaduw
aan de rand van de woestijn
ik rook een sigaret
denk aan wat ik liefst zou willen
gebeden worden soms verhoord
een stofwolk in de verte komt
langzaam aan mijn richting uit
'k hou me stil, maak me klein
neem ene verrekijker en kijk uit
ze zijn met (zijn) zeven
en de grootste kijkt me aan
het parelt op zijn flanken
en het schuimbekt rond zijn lippen
wij zijn van hetzelfde soort
7 paarden op de vlucht
7 paarden onbeducht
7 paarden wild en vrij
zie ze daar lopen zie ze daar lopen rennen
zie ze daar lopen zie ze daar lopen rennen
ik wou dat ik zo' mooi
zonder zwaartekracht
door de luchten zwevend
paard kon zijn
ik wou dat ik er (zo) een was
7 paarden op de vlucht
7 paarden op de vlucht

Look At Me
Composer(s): Bobby Darin - Randy Newman

Look at me
This at least you owe me
Just a glance to show me
That you really care
Look at me

And tears just don't become me

One look will do

To make me fall in love with you

Waiting to adore you

Just one look
One look will do
That's all it took
To make me fall in love with you
So turn around
I'll be looking for you
Waiting to adore you
Baby, look at me

Seven Days To A Holiday
Seven Days To A Holiday
Composer(s): Cass; Myers
Performer(s): Cliff Richard & The Shadows
I’ve got it! (Got what?)
Got this bus, London Transport said, "OK"
(OK? OK to what?)
OK to use this bus for transport on our holiday
They’re with it (With what?)
With the plan that I have landed them today
(What plan?) (That’s right, what plan?)
If we can do it once, they’ll back us all the way
7 Days to a holiday and there’s such a lot to do
Come on fellas, it’s up to you
we’re in an awful stew
get us out of this spot
Are you with us, or not?
6 Days to a holiday, and this bus must look like new
Shiny bright as a birthday gift
Give it a real face-lift
and its body the sheen, of a top beauty queen
5 More days, just 5 more days
to fix up dozens of things
Let’s spring-clean it, from front to rear
(Yes, I've cleaned all the springs!)
4 Days to a holiday and we know before we’re through
our bus will be safer than any bank
tough as an army tank
We will check everywhere, though it’s hard to get there
3 Days to a holiday and those sunny skies of blue
By the time that it leaves our shed
our bus will be bright red
and we know that we will...
(...paint Pa-ree redder still!
Voilà!)
2 Days to a holiday, all of the inside to do
so this old London bus can pass, as a hotel first class
We’ll make everything fit
Including...(Ah, yes, that’s it)
1 More day, just one more day
so we must not waste an hour
Come on let’s get the plumbing in
(Cor, blimey...what a shower!
Off we go on our holiday, and it’s you we have to thank...
"Fellas, I cannot thank you enough for helping us with our bus"

There's a cabin in the pines
In the hills of Caroline
And a blue-eyed girl is waiting there for me

Oh, the cabin in the shadow of the pines
And the blue-eyed girl down in Caroline
Someday she'll be my wife and we'll live a happy life
In a cabin in the hills of Caroline
I'm packin my grip gonna take a long long trip
Back to the hills of Caroline
I want to see that blue-eyed girl, she's the sweetest in the world
And the cabin in the hills of Caroline
And when it's late at night, and the moon is shinin bright
And the whipoorwill is callin from the hill
Then I'll tell her of my love, beneath the stars above
How I love her and I know I always will

It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air

Stockings hanging from the mast
Santa riding on a dolphin
Don't you want to make it
Don't you want to make it last
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Lots of presents everywhere
We don't live in a hurry
Send away for mistletoe

Got everything but snow
Snow?
Suntanned children sleeping
Hoping Santa will come true
Christmas morning marlin leaping
Oh it's papa's birthday
Mister Buffett's birthday too!
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Snowbirds fill the air
It's Christmas in the Caribbean
Good feelings everywhere
We don't live in a hurry
Send away for mistletoe

Seven days, seven days
And there’s not a word from you
Seven days without love
Tell me, what am I to do
Seven days I have cried
How I long to feel your touch
Why d’ya go, why d’ya stray
When I love you oh so much
The phone won’t ring at all
The clock is standing still
My tears are like the raindrops
Upon my window sill
Seven days, seven days
I have walked the floor for you
Seven days, seven days
Won’t you please say you’re still true
The phone won’t ring at all
The clock is standing still
My tears are like the raindrops
Upon my window sill
Seven days, seven days
I have been in misery
Seven days, seven days
Won’t you please come back to me
My darling, please come back to me

Performer(s): Sergio Mendes & Brasil '66
All the secrets of the skies in a drop of rain
Look around, look around
All the silver and surprise when you look around
just look around
All the wisdom of the sea in a grain of sand
Look around, just look around
Set the child within you free
when you look around, just look around
That cloud's a bird flying through the air
That happy leaf's going to the fair
It's all there, it's all there
All the innocence of spring in a blade of grass
Look around, just look around
Let the child within you sing when you look around
just look around
All the wisdom of the sea in a grain of sand
Look around, just look around
Set the child within you free
when you look around, just look around
That cloud's a bird flying through the air
That happy leaf's going to the fair
It's all there, it's all there
All the innocence of spring in a blade of grass
Look around, just look around
Let the child within you sing when you look around
just look around
Oh look around, just look around
stop and look around
just look around

Seven days, seven more days she'll be comin'
I'll be waiting at the station for her to arrive

She had a face that could outshine the sun in the skies
I been good, I been good while I been waitin'
Maybe guilty of hesitatin', I just been holdin' on
Seven more days, all that'll be gone
There's kissing in the valley
Thieving in the alley
Fighting every inch of the way
Trying to be tender
With somebody I remember
In a night that's always brighter'n the day
Seven days, seven more days that are connected
Just like I expected, she'll be comin' on forth
My beautiful comrade from the north
There's kissing in the valley
Thieving in the alley
Fighting every inch of the way
Trying to be tender
With somebody I remember
In a night that's always brighter'n the day

Ce nell'aria qualcosa di freddo che inverno non e

Questa sera i bambini per strada non giocano piu
Non so perche l'allegria degli amici di sempre non mi diverte piu
uno mi ha detto che ...
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me
Per uno che torna e ti porta una rosa mille si sono scordati di te
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me
Ora so
che cose questo amaro sapore che resta di te quando tu sei lontana
e non so dove sei cosa fai dove vai
E so perche non so piu immaginare il sorriso che c'e negli occhi tuoi
quando non sei con me
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei lontana, lontana da me
Per uno che torna e ti porta una rosa mille si sono scordati di te
Lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei, sei lontana, lontana da me ...
Sei lontano dagli occhi, lontano dal cuore e tu sei, sei lontana, lontana da me ...

One, two, three, four, five, six, seven
Monday's calling you too early when you're sound asleep

Wednesday's point of no return
When you've squandered all you've earned

If it isn't Thursday anymore, it must be Friday
I can't wait until I maybe
Get off work and see my baby
