I Am A Rock
I Am A Rock
Composer(s): Paul Simon
First release by: Paul Simon - 1965
Covered by multiple other artists
A winter's day
In a deep and dark December
I am alone
Gazing from my window
To the streets below
On a freshly fallen silent shroud of snow
I am a rock
I am an island
I've built walls
A fortress deep and mighty
That none may penetrate
I have no need of friendship
Friendship causes pain
It's laughter and it's loving I disdain
I am a rock
I am an island
Don't talk of love
Well I've heard the word before
It's sleeping in my memory
I won't disturb the slumber
Of feelings that have died
If I never loved I never would have cried
I am a rock
I am an island
I have my books
And my poetry to protect me
I am shielded in my armor
Hiding in my room
Safe within my womb
I touch no one and no one touches me
I am a rock
I am an island
And a rock feels no pain
And an island never cries

Je Pars
Je Pars
Composer(s): F. Bonifay; M. Craft; S. Craft
Performer(s): Dalida
La la la la la la la aie! aie! aie! aie! aie! aie!
La la la la la la aie! aie! aie! aie! aie!
La la la la la aie! aie! aie! aie!
Je pars avec la joie au cœur
Laissant ici tous mes soucis
Je pars vers le bonheur
Je pars bonsoir tous les amis
Voici l'été ensoleillé
Moi je pars vers la vie
Demain si rien ne m'arrête
Je vais me réveiller
Avec au fond de la tète
Des airs de chansons par millier
La la la la la
Je pars afin d'aller revoir
Le tout petit village
Qui cache mon espoir
Je pars
Je pars vers mon pays
Ou j'ai passé bien des années
A courir les prairies
Je pars vers le petit clocher
Qui tout content va comme avant
Sonner à la volé
Je sens au fond de mon être
L'amour monter en moi
Là bas à chaque fenêtre
Quelqu'un me dira
Te voila la la la la la la
Je pars le cœur gonflé de joie
Car pour doubler ma chance
Je pars mais je pars avec toi

Till The Walls Come Tumblin' Down
Till The Walls Come Tumblin' Down
Performer(s): J. Geils Band
Smashed a hole through my TV screen
Too much too soon if you know what I mean
I lost my mind by the count of ten
Nobody ever gonna put me back together again
You gotta knock it out rock it
You gotta sock it out rock it
You gotta rock rock rock it
'Til the walls come tumbln' down
Ladies flirtations I can't resist
I got to order you decease and desist
I just need some immoral support
And if your momma don't like it she can take me to court
You gotta knock it out rock it
You gotta sock it out rock it
You gotta rock rock rock it
'Til the walls come tumbln' down
Mash those potatoes don' t be shy
Feels so good don't you ask me why
The night is wild but I'm in control
You gotta brush your teeth with Rock 'n' Roll
You gotta knock it out rock it
You gotta sock it out rock it
You gotta rock rock rock it
'Til the walls come tumbln' down

I Am A Pilgrim
I Am A Pilgrim
(Traditional)
Performer(s): Merle Travis
and multiple other artists
I am a pilgrim, and a stranger - travelling through this wearisome land
But I've got a home - in that yonder city, Yes Lord!
In that house - not made with hands
I'll see my father, mother, sister and brother - when I leave this world of woe
And there I'll greet my Lord and Savior - in that land to which I go
Dear friends I'll greet - when I cross over, and I reach that distant shore
With songs of joy - we'll sing his praises, and there we'll dwell forever more
I'm going down - to the river of Jordan, just to ease my troubled soul
If I could touch - but the hem of his garment, I do believe I could be made whole
I am a pilgrim, and a stranger - travelling through this wearisome land
But I've got a home - in that yonder city, Yes Lord!
In that house - not made with hands

Je N'Oublierai Jamais (Johnny Hallyday)
Je N'Oublierai Jamais
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
Vous pouvez tout me faire
M'écarteler la chair
Me vider de mon sang
M'arracher goutte à goutte
Les gouttes de ma vie
Me crucifier en terre
Rayer de ma mémoire
Les traces du passé
Je n'oublierai jamais
Je n'oublierai jamais
Son corps entre vos mains
Piétiné déchiré
Et moi là l'insoumis
Incapable et cloué
Aux mains de vos supplices
Aux mains du sacrifice
Perdu pour elle
Vous pouvez tout me dire
Que je suis déjà mort
Et que je vais pourrir
Desséché au soleil
Cadeau pour les vautours
Ouvrez là votre gueule
Vous crèverez un jour
Comme crèvent les lâches
Je n'oublierai jamais
Je n'oublierai jamais
Que c'était grâce à elle
Que je vivais ma vie
Et que je n'aimais qu'elle
Et qu'elle m'avait dit
Qu'elle n'aimait que moi
Qu'elle se battrait pour moi
Et qu'elle est morte
Vous pouvez tout changer
De pays de prison
De visage et de nom
De croyance et de dieu
Et même changer de peau
Un ami quelque part
Qui aura ma mémoire
Vous trouvera un jour
Je n'oublierai jamais
Je n'oublierai jamais
Jamais

'Til The Storm Passes By
'Til The Storm Passes By
Composer(s): Mosie Lister
Performer(s): Bill & Gloria Gaither
and multiple other artists
In the dark of the midnight have I oft hid my face
While the storm howls above me, and there's no hiding place
'Mid the crash of the thunder, Precious Lord, hear my cry
Keep me safe till the storm passes by
Till the storm passes over, till the thunder sounds no more
Till the clouds roll forever from the sky
Hold me fast, let me stand in the hollow of Thy hand
Keep me safe till the storm passes by
Many times Satan whispered, "There is no need to try
For there's no end of sorrow, there's no hope by and by"
But I know Thou art with me, and tomorrow I'll rise
Where the storms never darken the skies
Till the storm passes over, till the thunder sounds no more
Till the clouds roll forever from the sky
Hold me fast, let me stand in the hollow of Thy hand
Keep me safe till the storm passes by
When the long night has ended and the storms come no more
Let me stand in Thy presence on the bright peaceful shore
In that land where the tempest, never comes, Lord, may I
Dwell with Thee when the storm passes by
Till the storm passes over, till the thunder sounds no more
Till the clouds roll forever from the sky
Hold me fast, let me stand in the hollow of Thy hand
Keep me safe till the storm passes by

I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow
I Am A Man Of Constant Sorrow (aka Farewell Song)
Composer(s): Dick Burnett
Performer(s): Emry Arthur - 1928
and multiple other artists
In constant sorrow through his days
I am a man of constant sorrow
I've seen trouble all my day
I bid farewell to old Kentucky
The place where I was born and raised
The place where he was born and raised
For six long years I've been in trouble
No pleasures here on earth I found
For in this world I'm bound to ramble
I have no friends to help me now
He has no friends to help him now
It's fare thee well my old lover
I never expect to see you again
For I'm bound to ride that northern railroad
Perhaps I'll die upon this train
Perhaps he'll die upon this train
You can bury me in some deep valley
For many years where I may lay
Then you may learn to love another
While I am sleeping in my grave
While he is sleeping in his grave
Maybe your friends think I'm just a stranger
My face you'll never see no more.
But there is one promise that is given
I'll meet you on God's golden shore
He'll meet you on God's golden shore

Je N'Oublierai Jamais (Charles Aznavour)
Je N'Oublierai Jamais
Composer(s): Charles Aznavour; Georges Garvarentz
Performer(s): Charles Aznavour
Quand on a dix-huit ans
Des amis merveilleux
Fainéants
Pique-assiette et que l'on est comme eux
Pas bégueules
On va dans les salons
Snobinards et dorés
Jouer
Les anarchistes aigris, les révoltés
Forts en gueules
Je n'oublierai jamais
Le troupeau de crevards
Hirsutes et mal lavés
Arrivant quelque part
Assaillant le buffet
Et jetant au hasard
Les pattes dans les mets
Sous de tristes regards
De détresse
Je n'oublierai jamais
Nos hurlement d'horreur
En voyant des objets
Des tableaux de valeur
On se montrait exprès
Goujats et monstrueux
Et puis l'on décampait
Sans merci, ni adieu
A l'hôtesse
On se voulait cyniques
Exécrables, et pourtant
Nous étions romantiques
faits de chair et de sang
De faiblesse
Je n'oublierai jamais
Je n'ai pas de remords
Et je recommencerai
Si je tenais encore
Ma jeunesse
A l'époque on était
De joyeux rigolos
Plus ou moins
Attachés
A de vagues journaux très obscurs
Philosophes, écrivains
Poètes d'occasion
Illustres inconnus
Néanmoins
Nous avions la dent dure
Je n'oublierai jamais
Nos merveilleux festins
Près des tonneaux percés
D'où pissait le bon vin
Quand nous étions vautrés
Dessus ou bien dessous
Que le jus nous coulait
Dans le nez, dans le cou
Les entrailles
Je n'oublierai jamais
Nos cris et nos serments
Nos discours enflammés
Sur le désarmement
Nos folles équipées
Nos courses éperdues
A travers un quartier
Qui nous crachait dessus
Nos batailles
Les filles à la page
Qui partageaient nos jours
Et faisaient le ménage
La cuisine, et l'amour
Tendres cailles
Je n'oublierai jamais
Ce que j'ai vu s'enfuir
Je n'ai pas de regrets
Car j'ai des souvenirs
En pagaille

'Til The Right One Comes Along
'Til The Right One Comes Along
Composer(s): Dave Clark - Mike Smith
Performer(s): The Dave Clark Five
It's not the first time it's happened to me
'Cause every girl I seem to get leaves me
But I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along
Oh, oh, oh
Every time I think "this is the one"
All she'll do is get up and run
But I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along
I've tried so hard but it seems no use
'Cause every time I get to like somebody
They just get up and leave
And it gives me the blues
It's not the first time it's happened to me
Every girl I seem to get leaves me
But I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along
Oh, oh, oh
I've tried so hard but it seems no use
'Cause every time I get to like somebody
They just get up and leave
And it gives me the blues
Every time I think "this is the one"
All she'll do is get up and run
But I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along
Oh, oh, oh
I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along
Oh, oh, oh
I'll keep on trying
Till the right one comes along

First release by: Neil Diamond - 1971
Versions In Other Languages:
1971 - Die Welt Von Heut' (Pascal Legrand)
1971 - La Casa Degli Angeli (Caterina Caselli)
L.A.'s fine, the sun shines most the time
And the feeling is 'lay back'
Palm trees grow, and rents are low
But you know I keep thinkin' about
Making my way back
Well I'm New York City born and raised
But nowadays, I'm lost between two shores
L.A.'s fine, but it ain't home
New York's home, but it ain't mine no more
"I am," I said
To no one there
An no one heard at all
Not even the chair
"I am," I cried
"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still
Did you ever read about a frog who dreamed of bein' a king
And then became one
Well except for the names and a few other changes
I you talk about me, the story's the same one
But I got an emptiness deep inside
And I've tried, but it won't let me go
And I'm not a man who likes to swear
But I never cared for the sound of being alone
"I am," I said
To no one there
An no one heard at all
Not even the chair
"I am," I cried
"I am," said I
And I am lost, and I can't even say why
Leavin' me lonely still

Je N'En Suis Plus Capable
Je N'En Suis Plus Capable
Composer(s): J.P. Gaussaud; P. Larue
Performer(s): Johnny Hallyday
J'ai gâché mon pauvre talent
À pleurer une maîtresse
Qui reproche à mes deux fesses
D'être le lièvre de mon divan
Me dire que Dieux est coupable
De m'avoir jeté sur terre
Sans la force de Jupiter
Je n'en suis plus capable
Je n'en suis plus capable
Reprocher à mes aïeux
D'avoir mal planté leur graine
Et d'avoir changé ce chêne
En bois mort pour faire ton feu
Être l'agneau de la fable
Ou être sur ton chemin
Comme la chèvre est à Seguin
Je n'en suis plus capable
Je n'en suis plus capable
Laisser pourrir ma mémoire
Devant le seuil de ta porte
Me cacher comme un cloporte
Au fond d'un de tes troirs
Faire de toi une cathédrale
Porter la croix au clocher
Pour y mourir crucifié
Je n'en suis plus capable
Je n'en suis plus capable
Te jurer sous un gibet
De cracher sur ma revanche
Et briser ma canne blanche
De l'aveugle que j'étais
Accrocher ma peau de diable
À un clou de ton grenier
Et te dire que j'ai changé
Pour toi j'en suis capable
Pour toi j'en suis capable
Pour toi j'en suis capable
Pour toi j'en suis capable

Till The Morning Comes
Till The Morning Comes
Composer(s): Jerry Garcia - Robert Hunter
Performer(s): Grateful Dead
Till the morning comes, it'll do you fine
Till the morning comes, like a highway sign
Showing you the way, leaving no doubt
Of the way on in or the way back out
Tell you what I'll do, I'll watch out for you
You're my woman now, make yourself easy, make yourself easy
Make yourself eeeeeeasy
Till we all fall down, it'll do you fine
Don't think about what you left behind
The way you came or the way you go
Let your tracks be lost in the dark and snow
Tell you what I'll do, I'll watch out for you
You're my woman now, make yourself easy, make yourself easy
Make yourself eeeeeeasy
When the shadows grow, it'll do you fine
When the cold winds blow, it'll ease your mind
The shape it takes could be yours to choose
What you may win, what you may lose
Tell you what I'll do, I'll watch out for you
You're my woman now, make yourself easy, make yourself easy
Make yourself eeeeeeeasy
You're my woman now, make yourself easy
You're my woman now, make yourself easy
You're my woman now, make yourself easy
You're my woman now, make yourself easy

I Am
Composer(s): Edwards - Carl Sigman
Performer(s): Tony Bennett
I am
In the eyes of the world
Just a man
Only one man
I am
In the eyes of the world
Just a dot
Not a lot
But when I walk with you
My soul is tied to every star
'Cause I, I am the world
And heaven above in the eyes of my love
Yes, I may be small
In the eyes of the world
But I am so tall
In the eyes of my love
But when I walk with you
My soul is tied to every star
'Cause I, I am the world
And heaven above in the eyes of my love
Yes, I may be small
In the eyes of the world
But I am so tall
In the eyes of my love

Je N'En Connais Pas La Fin
Je N'En Connais Pas La Fin
Composer(s): Raymond Asso; Marguerite Monnot
Performer(s): Edith Piaf;
and various other artists
Depuis quelque temps l'on fredonne
Dans mon quartier, une chanson
La musique en est monotone
Et les paroles sans façon
Ce n'est qu'une chanson dus rues
Dont on ne connaît pas l'auteur
Depuis que je l'ai entendue
Elle chante et danse dans mon cœur
{Refrain:}
Ha ha ha ha
A mon amour
Ha ha ha ha
A toi toujours,
Ha ha ha ha
Dans tes grands yeux
Ha ha ha ha
Rien que nous deux
Avec des mots naïfs et tendres
Elle raconte un grand amour
Mais il m'a bien semblé comprendre
Que la femme souffrait un jour
Si l'amant fut méchant pour elle
Je veux en ignorer la fin
Et, pour que ma chanson soit belle
Je me contente du refrain
{Refrain}
Ils s'aimeront toute la vie
Pour bien s'aimer, ce n'est pas long
Que cette histoire est donc jolie
Qu'elle est donc belle, ma chanson
Il en est de plus poétiques
Je le sais bien, oui, mais voilà
Pour moi, c'est la plus magnifique
Car ma chanson ne finit pas
{Refrain}

Now hold me close and kiss me
And may God bless you dear
Don't you cry when I'm gone
Wear a smile and carry on
Till the lights of London shine again

Well, I can tell you, people (people)

Parmi tous ces gens
Qui se moquent éperdument
Que tu m'aies quitté

Oui je vous vois
Chaque fois que vous dansez
Chaque fois que vous riez
Chaque fois que vous passez
Là devant moi
Chaque moi moi je me dis
Que toi et moi c'est bien fini
Et il vaut mieux que je t'oublie
Mais moi je ne peux pas

Tu as l'air heureux
Et ça me fait mal
Je ne vois que toi
Toi tu t'en aperçois
Mais ç a ne te gêne pas
Et ça t'es bien égal

Composer(s): Buddy Kaye - Ted Mossman
First release by: Perry Como - 1945
Covered by multiple other artists
Till the end of time
Long as stars are in the blue
Long as there's a spring, a bird to sing
I'll go on loving you
Till the end of time
Long as roses bloom in May
My love for you will grow deeper
With every passing day
Till the wells run dry
And each mountain disappears
I'll be there for you, to care for you
Through laughter and through tears
So, take my heart in sweet surrender
And tenderly say that I'm
The one you love and live for
Till the end of time
