Israel
Israel
Composer(s): Manuel Alejandro
Performer(s): Raphael
Cruzaré mi barba
Besaré mi tierra
Y abriré mil surcos
Sin descanso de sol a estrellas
Y al llegar la pascua en primavera
Yo le diré a mi hermano pobre
Siéntate a mi mesa
Come de este fruto de Israel
No me iré ya nunca
De mi tierra herida
Y uniré mis manos
A las manos de aquel que lucha
Moriré tranquilo
Cuando el mundo nos deje en paz
Cuando las fronteras sean verdaderas
Las que Dios nos quiso dar
Israel, mi pueblo
Israel, mi historia
Llanto y sueño eterno
Gloria a Israel

Isn't This A Lovely Day (To Be Caught In The Rain)?
Isn't This A Lovely Day (To Be Caught In The Rain)?
Composer(s): Irving Berlin
First performance by: Fred Astaire - 1935
Covered by multiple other artists
The weather is frightening
The thunder and lightning
Seem to be having their way
But as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day
The turn in the weather
Will keep us together
So I can honestly say
That as far as I'm concerned, it's a lovely day...
And everything's okay
Isn't this a lovely day to be caught in the rain
You were going on your way, now you've got to remain
Just as you were going, leaving me all at sea
The clouds broke, they broke and oh what a break for me
I can see the sun up high, though we're caught in a storm
I can see where you and I could be cozy and warm
Let the rain pitter patter
But it really doesn't matter
If the skies are gray
Long as I can be with you, it's a lovely day

Night Time In Little Italy
Night Time In Little Italy
Composer(s): Joe McCarthy; Fred Fisher
Performer(s): Frisco Jazz Band
When the day has gone to sleep lights begin to shine
To a latin haunt I creep a place that I called mine
There's laughter and joy and the music is grand
In my Bohemia Land
When the Cello sweetly hums
Some sweet melody
Through each little strain there comes a voice of Italy
Eat, drink and be merry you'll hear each one say
Life's worth a living that way
Night time down town in little Italy
(Chillie Billie, Bee)
Down 'round my old Mulberry
You'll hear the mandolins play
For Mariutcha
(Hutch-a-cootcha, Cootcha)
When she rolls those big black eyes at me
I want to be in Napoli
where dark win will make you happy as can be
(Baby on your knee)
You're one of the family
When they sing, chillibillibi
you leave your home and mother
everybody eat and drink and love each other
When it's night time down in Little Italy

Isn't She Lovely?
Isn't She Lovely?
Composer(s): Stevie Wonder
First release by: Stevie Wonder - 1976
Covered by multiple other artists
Isn't she lovely
Isn't she wonderful
Isn't she precious
Less than one minute old
I never thought through love we'd be
Making one as lovely as she
But isn't she lovely made from love
Isn't she pretty
Truly the angel's best
Boy, I'm so happy
We have been heaven blessed
I can't believe what God has done
through us he's given life to one
But isn't she lovely made from love
Isn't she lovely
Life and love are the same
Life is Aisha
The meaning of her name
Londie, it could have not been done
Without you who conceived the one
That's so very lovely made from love

Nightshift
Nightshift
Composer(s): Franne Golde; Dennis Lambert; Walter Orange
Performer(s): The Commodores
Marvin, he was a friend of mine
And he could sing a song, his heart in every line
Marvin, sang of the joy and pain
He opened up our minds, and I still can hear him say
Aw talk to me so you can see what's going on
Say you will sing your songs forevermore (evermore)
Gonna be some sweet sounds coming down on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud, oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right on the nightshift
Oh you found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift
Jackie (Jackie), hey whatcha doing now
It seems like yesterday when we were working out
Jackie (Jackie, oh) you set the world on fire
You came and gifted us, your love it lifted us higher and higher
Keep it up and we'll be there at your side
Oh say you will sing your songs forevermore (evermore)
Gonna be some sweet sounds coming down on the nightshift
I bet you're singing proud, oh I bet you'll pull a crowd
Gonna be a long night, it's gonna be all right on the nightshift
Oh you found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift
Gonna miss your sweet voice that soulful voice on the nightshift
We all remember you, oh the songs are coming through
At the end of a long day it's gonna be okay on the nightshift
You found another home, I know you're not alone on the nightshift

Isn't Life Strange
Isn't Life Strange
Composer(s): John Lodge
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
and multiple other artists
Isn't life strange
A turn of the page
Can read like before
Can we ask for more?
Each day passes by
How hard will man try?
The sea will not wait
You know it makes me want to cry, cry, cry
Wish I could be in your heart
To be one with your love
Wish I could be in your eyes
Looking back there you were, and here we are
Isn't life strange
A word we arrange
With no thought or care
Maker of despair
Each breath that we breathe
With love me must weave
To make us as one
Isn't life strange
A turn of a page
A book without light
Unless with love we write
To throw it away
To lose just a day
The quicksand of time

Nights On Broadway
Nights On Broadway
Composer(s): Barry Gibb; Maurice Gibb; Robin Gibb
Performer(s): The Bee Gees;
and various other artists
Here we are in the room full of strangers
Standing in the dark where your eyes couldn't see me
Well, I have to follow you
Though you didn't want me to
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away
Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them straight to the heart songs
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
Now in my place
There are so many others
Standin' in the line
How long will they stand between us?
Well, I have to follow you
Though you didn't want me to
But that won't stop my lovin' you
I can't stay away
Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them straight to the heart songs
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town
I will wait
even if it takes forever
I will wait
even if it takes a life time
Somehow I feel inside
You never ever left my side
Make it like it was before
Even if it takes a life time, takes a life time
Blaming it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them love songs
Singin' them straight to the heart songs
Blamin' it all on the nights on Broadway
Singin' them sweet sounds
To that crazy, crazy town

Isn't It Wonderful, Isn't It Swell
Isn't It Wonderful, Isn't It Swell
Composer(s): Lew Pollack; Sidney D. Mitchell
Performer(s): Will Osborne & His Orch.
Isn't it wonderful, isn't it swell
The spell of love, has so many charms
Isn't it wonderful, isn't it swell
You fell from heaven into my arms
I've been a blind one, I never knew
I'd ever find one, as lovely as you
Isn't it wonderful, can it be true
That you can see, something in me
Isn't it swell how wonderful love can be

Nights In White Satin
Nights In White Satin
Italian Titles: Un Po D'Amore; Ho Difeso Il Mio Amore
Composer(s): Justin Hayward
Performer(s): The Moody Blues
Nights in white satin never reaching the end
Letters I've written never meaning to send
Beauty I'd always missed with these eyes before
Just what the truth is
I can't say any more
'Cause I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you
Gazing at people some hand in hand
Just what I'm going through they can't understand
Some try to tell me thoughts they cannot defend
Just what you want to be you'll be in the end
And I love you
Yes I love you
Oh how I love you, oh

Isn't It Romantic?
Isn't It Romantic?
Composer(s): Lorenz Hart; Richard Rodgers
First performance by: Maurice Chevalier, Rolfe Sedan, Bert Roach, Jeanette MacDonald - 1932
Covered by multiple other artists
I've never met you, yet never doubt, dear
I can't forget you, I've thought you out, dear
I know your profile and I know the way you kiss
just the things I miss on a night like this
If dreams are made of imagination
I'm not afraid of my own creation
With all my heart, my heart is here for you to take
Why should I quake? I'm not awake
Isn't it romantic?
Music in the night, a dream that can be heard
Isn't it romantic?
Moving shadows write the oldest magic word
I hear the breezes playing in the trees above
while all the world is saying you were meant for love
Isn't it romantic
merely to be young on such a night as this?
Isn't it romantic?
Every note that's sung is like a lover's kiss
Sweet symbols in the moonlight
do you mean that I will fall in love per chance?
Isn't it romance?
My face is glowing, I'm energetic
The art of sewing I found poetic
My needle punctuates the rhythm of romance
I don't give a stitch if I don't get rich
A custom tailor who has no custom
is like a sailor, no one will trust 'em
But there is magic in the music of my shears
I shed no tears, lend me your ears
Isn't it romantic?
Soon I will have found some girl that I adore
Isn't it romantic?
While I sit around my love can scrub the floor
She'll kiss me every hour or she'll get the sack
and when I take a shower she can scrub my back
Isn't it romantic?
On a moonlight night she'll cook me onion soup
Kiddies are romantic
and if we don't fight we soon will have a troupe
We'll help the population
it's a duty that we owe to dear old France
Isn't it romance?

Nights Are Forever Without You
Nights Are Forever Without You
Composer(s): Parker McGee
Performer(s): Dan Seals;
and various other artists
Lyin' in bed with the radio on
Moonlight falls like rain
Soft summer nights spent thinkin' of you
When will I see you again
Chorus:
Soft and low the music moans
I can't stop thinking about you
Thinkin' 'bout you
I didn't know it would be so strong
Waiting and wondering about you
I didn't know it would last so long
Nights are forever without you
The curtains still dance with the wind and the sky
The sun'll be coming up soon
But I just can't sleep for thinkin' of you
Here alone with the moon
(repeat Chorus)

Isn't It A Pity? (George Harrison)
Isn't It A Pity?
(Spanish Version: No Es Una Pena? - 2008)
Composer(s): George Harrison
First release by: George Harrison - 1970
Covered by multiple other artists
Isn't it a pity, isn't it a shame
How we break each other's hearts, and
cause each other pain
How we take each other's love, without
thinking anymore
Forgetting to give back
Isn't it a pity
Somethings take so long, but how do I
explain?
When not too many people can see we're
all the same
And because of all their tears, their eyes
can't hope to see
The beauty that surrounds them-oh
Isn't it a pity

Nightingale
Nightingale
Composer(s): Richard Coburn; Vincent Rose
Performer(s): Frederick S. Manning
Somewhere the nightingale is singing from above
he promised that he's be my messenger of love
and I am yearning for his returning
It seems that's all I'm thinking of
The nightingale knows why I'm feeling sad and blue
somehow I know that he is feeling lonesome too
that's why he's heeding my tender pleading
and sings to her the whole night thru
Nightingale when you are singing tenderly oh tell her nightingale
That it's a lover's melody just so whenever you are singing
she'll know the message you are bringing
nightingale bring back my love to me

No Es Una Pena?
No Es Una Pena?
(Adapted from: Isn't It A Pity? - 1970)
Composer(s): George Harrison; Pedro Aznar
Performer(s): Pedro Aznar - 2008
No te pone triste?
No te da dolor?
La crueldad de unos con otros
La sombra del rencor
Como a veces sin pensar
Tomamos el amor
Y no lo retribuimos
No te pone triste?
Las cosas llevan tiempo
No es fácil de explicar
Cuando tan poca gente
Ve al otro como igual
Y sus lagrimas sin fin
Quizás ya no le dejen ver
Lo bello que es el mundo
No te pone triste?
No te pone triste?
No te da dolor?
La crueldad de unos con otros
La sombra del rencor
Como a veces sin pensar
Tomamos el amor
Y no lo retribuimos
No te pone triste?

Nighthawkin'
Nighthawkin'
Composer(s): Tim Buckley
Performer(s): Tim Buckley
I was a nighthawkin' in my taxi
My fare was a shaky ol' lush
So I kicked it over and took off
Then he whipped out this switch blade
Straight outta nowhere level to my throat
He said "See reb I've been over to the war boy"
I said "I was a combat paratrooper daddy"
Well now he slupped back cool and he pocket that steel
He said "Get me down to fourth and main"

Isn't It A Pity? (George Givot & Josephine Huston)
Isn't It A Pity?
Composer(s): George Gershwin; Ira Gershwin
First performance by: George Givot & Josephine Huston - 1933
Covered by multiple other artists
Why did I wander here and there and yonder
Wasting precious time for no reason or rhyme?
Isn't it a pity? Isn't it a crime?
My journey's ended, everything is splendid
Meeting you today
Has given me a wonderful idea - here I stay
It's a funny thing
I look at you, I get a thrill I never knew
Isn't it a pity we never met before?
Here we are at last
It's like a dream, the two of us a perfect team
Isn't it a pity we never met before?
Imagine all the lonely years we've wasted
You with the neighbors, I at silly labors
What joys untasted
You reading Heine, me somewhere in China
Let's forget the past
Let's both agree that I'm for you and you're for me
And it's such a pity we never, never met before
Imagine all the lonely year's we've wasted
Fishing for salmon, losing at backgammon
What joys untasted
My nights were sour spent with Schopenhauer
Let's forget the past
Let's both agree that I'm for you and you're for me
And it's such a pity we never, never met before
