Ah, ah, ah, ah

Sitôt que la fête est finie au rythme de la nuit
Dans chaque bruit, chaque pas je redeviens
Moi
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Ah, ah, ah, ah
La nuit est femme la nuit cest une femme la nuit
Avec ses larmes et ses joies la vie est faite de ça
C'est une femme la nuit qui aime autant qu elle oublie
Et qui s'y perd chaque fois je lui ressemble je crois
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Le plus petit de ses soupirs a quelque chose à dire
Amour que l'on n'attend pas
Ou bien qui s'en va
Ah, ah, ah, ah
Avec ces quatres notes la on se retrouvera
Pour chanter tous à la fois
Comme un cœur qui bât
Ah, ah, ah, ah

Avec ses larmes et ses joies la vie est faite de ça

The Blue Velvet Band
The Blue Velvet Band
Composer(s): Hank Snow
Performer(s): Hank Snow
If you listen a story I'll tell you
Of a girl who once lived in this land
A girl who was once my sweetheart
She was know as The Blue Velvet Band
On her cheeks was the first flush of nature
Her beauty, it seemed to expand
Her hair hung down in long tresses
Tied back with a blue velvet band
I can still see those tears as we parted
Of my heart broken Blue Velvet Band
As I left I told her I'd never
Come back to my old home again
Five years on the wide open spaces
Was all that my poor heart could stand
every night as I lay on my pillow
I would dream of my Blue Velvet Band
Then one night as I lay down dreaming
Of home and poor mother and dad
Like a flash by my bedside was standing
The form of my Blue Velvet Band
I started next day for my darling
Just to go back and make her my bride
But as I reached the old country depot
They told my my sweet heart has died
They laid her to rest in the churchyard
Midst the sweet summer flowers of the land
On her finger the ring I had bought her
On her head was a blue velvet band

Composer(s): Charlie Chaplin; J. Barnel; G. Sinoué
Performer(s): Dalida - 1983
Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Pour des riens mon cœur s'enflamme
Quand je suis amoureuse
Je deviens femme heureuse
Prête à toutes les folies
Tout quitter en pleine nuit
Pour aller suivre à tout prix
Ma chance
Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Mélodie ou mélodrame
Quelquefois indocile mais souvent femme fragile
Si parfois mon cœur s'ennuie
Entre ses bras je revis
Alors simplement je suis
Sa femme à lui
Avec lui je suis femme, femme
Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Pour des riens mon cœur s'enflamme
Quand je suis amoureuse
Je deviens femme heureuse
Si parfois mon cœur s'ennuie
Entre ses bras je revis
Alors simplement je suis
Sa femme
Femme
Comme vous moi je suis femme
Même joie et même larme
Faire semblant de partir
Pour mieux le retenir
Et tant pis si ça fait mal
Tout cela m'est bien égal
Je deviens sentimentale
Et femme, sa femme à lui

The Blue Danube
The Blue Danube
Composer(s): Johann Strauss II - Sol Meyer - Del Porter - Spike Jones
Performer(s): Spike Jones
All the years have come, and the years have gone
but the oft told tale is not true
for of all the things the Danube is
the Danube is not blue
The Danube is green
what's more it ain't clean
It's green as a bean
It ain't not serene
And though the blueberry looks a little purple
And though your maple syrup looks a little murple
Don't believe what you have heard or you have saw
Oh the Danube isn't blue, it's green
Oh, the Danube is green as the grass in the spring
It's as green as the dollar you spend on a fling
It's as green as the paint that you put on the screen
Oh the blue of the Danube is greener than green
The Danube isn't blue (Am I blue? No!)
The Danube has another hue (Who? Me? You!)
It's time we all came clean, (B.O.)
'Cause the Danube isn't blue, it's green

Candy Kisses (Neil Sedaka)
Candy Kisses
Composer(s): Neil Sedaka - Phil Cody
Performer(s): Neil Sedaka
My old lady she's so sweet and fine
I can't help wanting her kisses all the time
I run to meet her like a kid with a dollar
To the corner candy store
It's what I'm livin' for
But I want mooore...than your candy kisses
She starts movin' I say "Honey please"
("I don't want your kisses")
I ain't foolin', you know it isn't right to tease
("I don't need your kisses")
I tell her "Sugar you're a true fine lover"
"You're as sweet as cherry pie"
But no matter how I try
I can't get high
On your candy kisses
I don't want our love to stop
("Don't stop it")
If it should stop
("Don't stop it")
My heart would break
If the sun should get to hot
("Don't stop it")
It's gonna melt away the icing on our cake
Candy kisses knock me off my feet
("I don't want your kisses")
Fill me up but leave me feelin' incomplete
("I don't need your kisses")
Fancy wrappin's and well-made trappin's
Will lead me to your door
What I'm hungry for
Is so much mooore...than your candy kisses
("Candy kisses, candy candy kisses")
("Candy kisses, candy candy kisses")
Candy kisses knock me off my feet
Fill me up but leave me incomplete
Since your wrappin's lead me to your door
It's not the only kind of love that I'm lookin' for
Candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your lovin' if you're gonna stay with me
("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")
Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me
("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")
Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me
("Candy kisses, keep your candy kisses")
Candy, candy, candy kisses ain't enough for me
Got to have all your love if you're gonna stay with me ...

Feliz
Feliz
Composer(s): Gonzaguinha
Performer(s): Raimundo Fagner
Para quem bem viveu o amor
Duas vidas que abrem
Não acabam com a luz
São pequenas estrelas
Que correm no céu
Trajetórias opostas
Sem jamais deixar de se olhar
É um carinho guardado no cofre
De um coração que voou
É um afeto deixado nas veias
De um coração que ficou
É a certeza da eterna presença
Da vida que foi
Na vida que vai
É a saudade da boa
Feliz cantar
Que foi foi foi
Foi bom e pra sempre será
Mais mais mais
Maravilhosamente amar

The Bloke Who Invented Beer
The Bloke Who Invented Beer
Performer(s): Rolf Harris
Okay you lot, all right, all right, you fellahs, now
you're all drinking up and havin' a good time
How about a round of applause for the gent who made all this possible...
... The bloke who invented beer
Are you gonna join me in a musical tribute to this noble benefactor? (Too right!)
How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
He gave this tired old world a spark
They should have his statue in ev'ry park
Life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer
Yes, us fellahs know that the invention of beer was the greatest thing that ever happened to mankind
Ahead of electricity and airplanes and all that other stuff
But did the bloke who invented beer get the credit and recognition he deserves...
No!
No, he don't
But we don't forget him
Just look at our pub motto
Caesar was great and so was Nero, but the bloke who invented beer's a hero!
So c'mon, loosen up your tonsils and let's give it another burst
Are you ready? Well, let's go then...
Oh, how about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
We'd all be shakin' and quakin' flops
If we couldn't gargle our throats with hops
He was the first to defeat the old demon thirst
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer
How about a cheer for the bloke who invented beer
Though not one hist'ry book gives his name
We say he will stay in the hall of fame
Man's joys were few, till our hero brought out his brew
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer
Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer
Yeah, life was so drear till this genius thought up beer
So, charge your glasses, drink a cheer
To the bloke who invented beer...

The Blizzard
Composer(s): Harlan Howard
First release by: Jim Reeves - 1961
Covered by multiple other artists
There's a blizzard comin' on, how I'm wishin' I was home
for my pony's lame and he can't hardly stand
Listen to that Norther sigh- if we don't get home, we'll die
But it's only seven miles to MaryAnn
It's only seven miles to MaryAnn
You can bet we're on her mind, 'cause it's nearly supper time
And I'll bet there's hot biscuits in the pan
Lord, my hands feel like their froze, there's a numbness in my toes
but it's only five more miles to MaryAnn
It's only five more miles to MaryAnn
That winds howlin' and it seems, mighty like a woman's scream
We best be movin' faster, if we can
Dan, just think about that barn, with that hay so soft and warm
It's only three more miles to MaryAnn
It's only three more miles to MaryAnn
"Well Dan, get up, you awnry cuss, or you'll be the death of us
Well I'm so weary, I'll help ya', if I can
Well, alright Dan, perhaps it's best, that we stop awhile and rest
For it's still a-hundred yards to MaryAnn"
It's still a-hundred yards to MaryAnn
Well, late that night the storm was gone, and they found 'im, there at dawn
Well, he'd a-made it, but he just couldn't leave 'ol Dan
Yes, they found him there, on the plains, with his hands froze to the reins
He was just a-hundred yards from MaryAnn
He was just a-hundred yards from MaryAnn

Je saurais te rendre heureux
Si dans mes bras tu te vautres

Couchée sur ton corps nerveux
Je me sens soudain tout fièvre

The Blind Man In The Bleachers
The Blind Man In The Bleachers ((aka The Last Game Of The Season (David Geddes))
Performer(s): Kenny Starr; Loyal Garner
He's just the blind man in the bleachers to the local hometown fans
And he sits beneath the speakers way back in the stands
And he listens to the play by play, he's just waiting for one name
He wants to hear his son get in the game
But the boy's just not a hero, he's strictly second team
Though he runs each night for touchdowns in his fathers sweetest dreams
He's gonna be a star someday though you might never tell
But the blind man in the bleachers knows he will
And the last game of the season is a Friday night at home
And no one knows the reason but the blind man didn't come
And his boy looks kinda nervous,sometimes turns around and stares
Just as though he sees the old man sitting there
Well, the local boys are tryin' but they slowly lose their will
Another players down and now he's carried from the field
At halftime in the locker room the kid goes off alone
And no one sees him talkin' on the phone
And the games already started when he gets back to the team
And half the crowd can hear his coach yell, "Where the hell you been?"
"Just getting' ready for the second half", is all he'll say
"Cause no you're gonna let me in to play"
And without another word he turns and runs into the game
And though the silence on the field, loudspeakers call his name
It'll make the local papers how the team came from behind
When they saw him playing out his heart to win
And when the game was over the coach asked him to tell
What was it he was thinkin' of that made him play so well
"Well, you knew my Dad was blind", he said, "Tonight he passed away"
"It's the first time that my father's seen me play"

Candy Apple Red
Candy Apple Red
Composer(s): Houston Turner
Performer(s): Bill Anderson
and multiple other artists
He came speeding through the town each day at sundown
And his car was painted candy apple red
He was coming there to see the Sheriff's daughter
And the Sheriff didn't know it, so they said
Time and time again the Sheriff tried to catch him
But he always speeded up and got away
That old county jail stood patiently a-waitin'
And the Sheriff vowed he'd put him there some day
Well there goes candy apple red, that's what the people said
If he doesn't slow it down a bit, he's gonna end up dead
And the Sheriff's daughter said she'd rather end up dead
Than to live without her candy apple red
So the Sheriff built a barricade to catch him
And he sat there at the limits of the town
But the Sheriff's daughter had already met him
And she married him before the sun went down
When the Sheriff saw them comin' down the highway
He saw they couldn't stop and quickly caught his breath
As they crashed the barricade the car exploded
And the boy and girl went to a flaming death
Well there goes candy apple red, that's what the people said
If he doesn't slow it down a bit, he's gonna end up dead
And the Sheriff's daughter said she'd rather end up dead
Than to live without her candy apple red

Performer(s): Al Bano & Romina Power;
and various other artists
Felicitá
E' tenersi per mano, andare lontano la felicitá
E' il tuo sguardo innocente in mezzo alla gente la felicitá
E' restare vicini, come bambini, la felicitá, felicitá
Felicitá
E' un cuscino di piume, l'acqua del fiume che passa e che va
E' la pioggia che scende, dietro alle tende la felicitá
E' abbassare la luce, per fare pace, la felicitá, felicitá
Felicitá
E' un bicchiere di vino
Con un panino la felicitá
E' lasciarsi un biglietto dentro al cassetto, la felicitá
E' cantare a due voci, quanto mi piaci la felicitá, felicitá
Senti nell'aria c'e gia la nostra canzone
D'amore che va...
Come un pensiero che sa di felicitá
Senti nell'aria c'e gia un raggio di sole piu caldo che va
Come un sorriso che sa di felicitá
Felicitá
E' una sera a sorpresa
La luna accesa, la radio che va
E' un biglietto d'auguri, pieno di cuori la felicitá
E una telefonata non aspettata, la felicitá, felicitá
Felicitá
E' una spiaggia di notte
L'onda che batte, la felicitá
E' una mano sul cuore, piena d'amore la felicitá
E' aspettare l'aurora, per farlo ancora la felicitá
Felicitá
Senti nell'aria c'e gia la nostra canzone
D'amore che va...
Come un pensiero che sa di felicitá
Senti nell'aria c'e gia un raggio di sole piu caldo che va
Come un sorriso che sa di felicitá

The Blacksmith Blues
Composer(s): Jack Holmes
Performer(s): Ella Mae Morse
and multiple other artists
Down in old Kentucky
Where horseshoes are lucky
There's a village smithy standin' under a chestnut tree
Hear the hammer knockin'
See the anvil rockin'
He sings the boogie blues while he's hammerin' on the shoes
See the hot sparks a-flyin'
Like Fourth of July-in'
He's even got the horses cloppin', pop! down the avenue
Folks love the rhythm
The clang-bangin' rhythm
You'll get a lot o' kicks out of the Blacksmith Blues
