It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)
It Don't Mean A Thing (If It Ain't Got That Swing)
Composer(s): Duke Ellington; Irving Mills
First release by: Duke Ellington - 1932
Covered by multiple other artists
What good is melody, what good is music
If it ain't possessin' something sweet
It ain't the melody, it ain't the music
There's something else that makes the tune complete
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing
It don't mean a thing, all you got to do is sing
It makes no diff'rence if it's sweet or hot
Just give that rhythm ev'rything you got
It don't mean a thing, if it ain't got that swing

No Lika Da War
No Lika Da War
Composer(s): Stanley Holloway; Nesham
Performer(s): Stanley Holloway
In Italy when Mussolini called for men
He make-a me go
To fight-a the foe
He say with a grin, you're sure to win and home again
That liar Benito, whenever we meet-o
I make-a the Blitz, they pick-a the bits
Up in the next street-o
No wanta no start-a the war
No wanta no fight-a the war
No wanta to leave my home in sunny Italy
I missa the macarone
I missa the ice cream cone
I missa my little Rosalie
No lika the barbed wire
No lika the spit-a-da-fire
No lika the great big guy from Australie
No lika the ping
No lika the boom
No lika the whoosh
No lika the clunk
Oh, take-a me back to sunny Italy
Io da laniero di qualità
Hey, who?
Says the Duce (pronounced "juice") to Mrs. Musso
You can buy another trouseau
I go to make some war among the sheik
With my trusty battagliare (battaglieri?)
And with Mary from the dairy
I'll be home again inside a couple-a-week
And the populo di Roma
They draw up a nice diploma
For to give to the Italians by-and-by
But the Abyssinian army
They drive us nearly barmy
Singing el kaladdy Haile Selassie
Coming through the rye
Says Iosta, "No surrender"
An' 'e speak-a very tender
He say "Stick it boys and then I'm sure we win"
But the British in the tanks
They attack us on the flanks
And you're a fatter man than I am, Gunga Din
They search every nook and cranny
For our Marshall, Graziani
And we have to pin a note upon the door
We wouldn't tell a fibby 'ere
You can search all over Lybia
Grazie, and 'e doesn't liby 'ere anymore
No wanta no start-a the war
No wanta no fight-a the war
No wanta to leave my home in sunny Italy
I missa the macarone
I missa the ice cream cone
I missa my little Rosalie
No lika the barbed wire
No lika the spit-a-da-fire
No lika the great big guy from Australie
No lika badia
No lika Tobruk
No lika saloon
No lika b-book
Oh, take-a me back to sunny Italy
Oh, take-a me back to sunny Italy
Viva!

Mean And Evil Blues
Mean And Evil Blues
Composer(s): Irene Higginbotham; Claude Demetrious
Performer(s): Dinah Washington (with Tab Smith & his Orch.)
and multiple other artists
Now I'm mean and evil, don't you mess around with me
Yes I'm mean and evil, don't you mess around with me
'Cause I'll mess you up with a bang, a dozen sticks of TNT!
First thing each mornin', I breaks me a lookin' glass
Then I goes out on the corner, waits for a black cat to pass
Can't sleep while there's a howlin' dog 'neath my window each night
And nothin' sends me like a good bloody fight!
Yes I'm mean and evil
But you no-good men made me that way!
Yes I'm mean and evil, even rain don't fall on me
Yes I'm so mean and evil, even rain don't fall on me
And I'm gonna stay that way till I find a man that's meaner than me!

It Don't Matter To Me
Composer(s): Phil Collins
Performer(s): Phil Collins
Well it don't matter to me what you say, what you say
And it don't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright
Because I've heard it all so many times before
Just what you're saying and
I don't really want to hear it all no more, no more
Don't want to hear it no more
Cause there's no way that you can run
Cause I'm gonna find you
And there's nobody that you can turn to
cause I'll be behind you just to remind you
That it don't matter to me what you say, what you say
Well it didn't matter to me what you're doing alright, alright
It seems to me it's been too easy for you for too long
So you'd better climb down before you fall and hurt your pride, your pride
You're gonna hurt your pride
Cause there' nowhere that you can run to
Cause I'm gonna find you
And there's no place that you can stay
Cause I'll be behind you just to remind you
Well it don't matter to me what you do
Well it don't matter to me, I'm talking to you, talking to you
Well it don't matter to me believe me
Well it don't matter to me...

To soothe my aching heart
Oh why did God ever permit
True love like ours to part

This is what I wrote to her
I know that I'm to blame
I know that I have brok'n your heart
And then I signed my name
(Repeat Chorus)

If there's no letter in the box
I'm leaving this world behind

I Have To Have You
Composer(s): Richard A. Whiting; Leo Robin Robin
Performer(s): Helen Kane
Darling, I'm just wild about you
I'm just not sensible
I can't do a thing without you
You're indispensable
Oh loving, I have to have loving
But when I'm having my loving
I have to have you
Moment, I must have my moment
But when I'm having my moment
I have to have you
Sometimes I get so blue waiting for you to take me
I can't go on like this!
Oh give me a kiss and make me happy
New thrills
Oh I have to have new thrills
But when I'm having my new thrills
I have to have you
Weekends Oh I hate to take weekends
But if I have to take weekends
I have to have you
Boop boop a doo
Night boats, oh I hate to take night boats
But if I have to take night boats
I'll have to have you
Oh honey, what's the sense of this suspense we live in?
Come on for goodness sake, give me a break
And give in baby
Whoopie, I wanna make whoopie
And when I wanna make whoopie
I have to have you
And if we're ever poor out in the rain while I have you
I'm okay with me
I won't complain of getting a wedding
Whoopie, I wanna make whoopie
And when I make whoopie
I have to have you

No Le Pegues Mama
No Le Pegues Mama
Composer(s): Alvarez Beigbeder;
Manuel Casas Romero; Purificación
Performer(s): Raphael
No le pegues mama
No le pegues al niño
No le pegues mama
Dejalo ya tranquilo
Porque el niño no hace ni menos ni mas
Lo que hacen los niños
Y ese niño no es malo
Es un poco travieso
Pero el niño ha salido igualito a los dos
Dejalo, dejalo
Dejalo ya tranquilo
Dejalo, dejalo
Dejalo que es muy chico
No le pegues mama
No le pegues por eso
Que el no sabe todavia
Lo que es malo ni es bueno
Y por eso a las niñas en la plaza
Les sube la falda sin miedo
Y se pone perdio
De arrastrarse por el suelo
¿Que se pasa todo el dia jugando con el balon?
Dejalo, dejalo
No le pegues por eso
Dejalo, dejalo
Que a su edad to eso es bueno
Dejalo, dejalo
No le pegues por eso
Dejalo, dejalo
Que a su edad to eso es bueno

It don't come easy
You know it don't come easy

And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don't come easy
Peace, remember peace is how we make it

If you're big enough to take it
Got to pay your dues if you wanna sing the blues
And you know it don't come easy
You don't have to shout or leap about
You can even play them easy
Peace, remember peace is how we make it
Here within your reach
If you're big enough to take it
I don't ask for much, I only want your trust
And you know it don't come easy
And this love of mine keeps growing all the time
And you know it don't come easy

"What's my name?"-Ringo!
"Just in case anybody forgot"

No La Boca Sino El Beso
No La Boca Sino El Beso
Composer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute; Luis Mendo; Billy Villegas
Performer(s): Luis Eduardo Aute
No la boca sino el beso
fue el crimen, transgresión
humana de lo Perfecto
boca que por el beso
se traiciona contra Dios
para besarse en su espejo
Ensimismado
el Verbo Infinito reflexiona
se observa
desde el féretro
La palabra
se nombra paradoja
Labios contra labios
rocío tierno, húmeda flor
del reflejo suicida
quebrantando la ley por el deseo
Lenguas contra lenguas, hambres
cruzadas convocan
en ¡id lenguajes
inversos
Boca que por el beso
abrió la puerta Nunca
del Árbol del Conocimiento
beso que se besa
sed de ser sed
origen y fin de¡ círculo
eterno
iris, planeta, pupila del Éxtasis
anillo de¡ agua, la cifra cero
pompa, torbellino, espectro del arco
iris, seno y óvulo y órbita
del centro, latido
latido contra sí mismo
corazón circular del Universo
Esfera del Azar, fe de Armonía
engendra la fe del Azar
el fuego
Voluntad de luz, voluntad de sombra
voluntad de beso entre infierno y cielo
beso inmortal
que asesina su muerte
Alma del amor
contra amor del cuerpo
Siguen los años pasando, impasibles
Por ahí asoma
el final de¡ Trayecto, cerca
tan cerca que anuncia los labios
que habrán de sellar el último
beso
Bésame, bésame
y dame tu nombre
Yo, Tú, El,
las tres personas del Verbo

Her Bathing Suit Never Got Wet
Her Bathing Suit Never Got Wet
Composer(s): Nat Simon; Charles Tobias)
Performer(s): The Andrews Sisters; Edmundo Ros
By the waters of the Caribbean
Lived a lovely little Latin Queen
In her bathing suit she can be seen
Strolling down beside the sea
But her bathing suit never got wet
And she was an Admiral’s daughter
And always so close to the water
But her bathing suit never got wet
Then one day imagine her surprise
Clouds began to gather in the skies
There she stood just like a frightened pup
When the heavens opened up
But her bathing suit never got wet
For there on the sand was a feller
And he had the cutest umbrella
So her bathing suit never got wet
Then a boy whom she had snubbed one day
Got revenge, and in the sweetest way
Turned the hose upon this Latin Beaut
Standing in her bathing suit
But her bathing suit never got wet
For while she was weeping and screaming
She woke up and found she was dreaming
So her bathing suit never got wet
Here’s what happened on the beach one night
When she saw that no one was in sight
She made up her mind and in she went
Swimming to her heart’s content
But her bathing suit never got wet
And here is the answer, oh brother
She borrowed a suit from her mother
So her bathing suit never got wet
Then one day she broke the golden rule
Climbed the ladder of a swimming pool
There she stood, and as the people roared
She dove off the diving board
But her bathing suit never got wet
And oh what a lesson it taught her
What good is a pool without water?
But her bathing suit never got wet

If I were a candy dish, I’d wanna be the one you keep your sweets in, my sweet man
And if I were a lamp, I’d wanna be the one you turned on every night, ooh ooh baby

No He Podido Fallarte
No He Podido Fallarte
Composer(s): Marco Antonio Solís
Performer(s): Raphael
Pude hablarte a la cara
Y decirte que no vuelvas
Pude ser quien no he sido
Y esconder la verdad
De felicitaciones
Celebraron tu ausencia
Los callados ladrones
De mi felicidad
Pero hace tanto ya
Que esa historia se termino
Los jardines llenos estan
De colores una vez mas
Y es eterno el pensarte
Si te quieres reir
Hazlo ahora de mi dolor
Por ti nunca murio mi amor
Lo se porque hasta hoy
No he podido fallarte
No he podido fallarte
Pero hace tanto ya
Que esa historia se termino
Los jardines llenos estan
De colores una vez mas
Y es eterno el pensarte
Si te quieres reir
Hazlo ahora de mi dolor

Hello Sadness
Hello Sadness
(French Version: Bonjour Tristesse)
Composer(s): Georges Auric; Jacques Datin; Henri Lemarchand; Arthur Laurents
Performer(s): Juliette Greco
I live with melancholy
my friend his vague distress
I wake up every morning and say
Bonjour Tristesse
The street I walk is sadness
my house has no addresss
the letters that i write me begin
Bonjour Tristesse
The loss of a lover is pain
sharp and bitter to recall
I've lost no casual lover
I have no pain from wich to recover
I've lost me
that is all
My smile is void of laughter
my kiss has no caress
I'm faithful to my lover
my bitter sweet, Tristesse

No Hay Ni Un Corazón Que Valga La Pena
No Hay Ni Un Corazón Que Valga La Pena
Composer(s): Miguel Bosé
Performer(s): Miguel Bosé
No hay ni un corazón que valga la pena
Ni uno solo que no venga herido de guerra
Y sigo aquí... cuánto silencio hay
Cuánto silencio, no sé
El tiempo agotado en compases de espera
Dibuja un desierto por dentro y por fuera
Que tira pa'atrás a quien logre acercarse hasta aquí
No quiero pasados cargados de impuestos
Ni busco imposibles en cielos abiertos
Pero algo que valga la paz por la que hay que apostar
Amor inmenso y sin herida
Sin historia y a medida
Amor que no haga más preguntas
Preparado a no entender
Amor que mire bien de frente
Suficientemente fuerte
Amor que no busque salida
Y no me cueste la vida
No hay ni un corazón que valga la pena
No hay un puto corazón sin carga o problema
Olvídate
No hay un solo corazón...
No hay un corazón que no vaya de pena
No hay un puto corazón en toda esta tierra
Que dé descanso y no haga preguntas
Olvídate
Quisiera volar hasta donde te escondes
Contarte de una vez qué razones me rompen
Dejar de echar tanto de menos a tu corazón
Y quisiera tenerlo, robarlo aunque fuera
Dejar de negar que aún me vale la pena
aquél corazón que me late dentro de tí
Amor inmenso y sin herida
Sin historia y a medida
Amor que no haga más preguntas
Preparado a no entender
Amor que mire bien de frente
Suficientemente fuerte
Amor que no busque salida
Y no me cueste la vida

First release by: Buddy Holly - 1959
Covered by multiple other artists
There you go and baby here am I
Well you left me here so I could sit and cry
Golly gee what have you done to me
Well I guess it doesn't matter anymore
Do you remember baby last September
How you held me tight each and every night
Oh baby how you drove me crazy
But I guess it doesn't matter any more
There's no use in me a-crying
I've done everything and now I'm sick of trying
I've thrown away my nights, wasted all my days over you
Now you go your way baby and I'll go mine
Now and forever 'till the end of time
And I'll find somebody new and baby
We'll say we're through and you won't matter any more
There's no use in me a-crying
I've done everything and now I'm sick of trying
I've thrown away my nights, wasted all my days over you
Now you go your way baby and I'll go mine
Now and forever 'till the end of time
And I'll find somebody new and baby
We'll say we're through and you won't matter any more

No Hard Feelings
No Hard Feelings
Composer(s): Eric Carmen
Performer(s): Eric Carmen
We was young
And still believed in "A Hard Day's Night"
But no one seemed to understand
That there was no relief in sight
The company man
He's got his nose glued to the charts
He says the record's doin' fine
But now the group is fallin' apart
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stays the same
Well we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Just tryin' to find the way to get out
Four years on
And things were really gettin' too intense
Critics ravin' 'bout our album
But we're makin' fifty cents
And in the end
We was facin' the hard, cold truth
So tomorrow come what may
Looks like it's Ricky and The Tooth
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stays the same
Well we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Just tryin' to find the way to get out
We gave it everything we had to give
But it was gettin' so tough
Too much frustration makes it hard to live
I think enough is enough
I said enough is enough
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause there isn't anyone to blame
I hope there's no hard feelings
'Cause nothin' ever stay the same
While we was locked in image prison
Waitin' for that break
We was raped, reshaped and tryin' to escape
Caught in a rock and roll time warp
Just tryin' to fine the way to get out
Lemme out, lemme out
Lemme out, lemme out
I gotta get out
Lemme out, lemme out
I gotta gotta gotta get out
Lemme out
I gotta get out
Lemme out, lemme out, lemme out
Lemme out
