Alex farewell song
ritorno al mar dove ho sognato con te
e sembra dirmi "ciao" ciao ciao
rivedo ancor i vecchi amici che ho
e mi salutano ciao ciao
e sulla sabbia limpida
non e' cambiato niente
sotto il sole caldo
io ti cerco tra la gente
so che ci sei...
ecco mi hai vista e tu
mi vieni incontro correndo
e stai sorridendomi
ciao ciao
grido chiamandoti
ciaociao
amore abbracciami
ciaociao
sono tornata da te
ciao ciao ciao ciao
tu non lo sai con quanta ansia aspettai
di rivedere te ciao ciao
ora di te non voglio perdere mai
neanche un attimo ciao ciao
diventeranno facili i baci dell'estate
passeremo insieme cento ore innamorate
ma poi verra'
il giorno che partiro'
alla stazione verrai...
la mano tu agiti...
ciao ciao
io sto per piangere...
ciao ciao
il treno va e grido
ciao ciao
non ti scordare di me...
ciao ciao, ciao ciao, ciao ciao (interlude)
diventeranno facili
i baci dell'estate
passeremo insieme
cento ore innamorate
ma poi verra'
il giorno che partiro'
alla stazione verrai...
la mano tu agiti...
ciao ciao
io sto per piangere...
ciao ciao
il treno va e grido
ciao ciao
non ti scordare di me...

Oh what a world
It seems we live in
Straight man
Oh what a world
We live in
Why am I always on a plane or a fast train
Oh what a world my parents gave me
Always
Travelin' but not in love
Still I think I'm doin' fine
Wouldn't it be a lovely headline
Life is
Beautiful on the New York Times

The Carpenters were a vocal and instrumental duo, consisting of siblings Karen and Richard
The Carpenters were a vocal and instrumental duo, consisting of siblings Karen and Richard Carpenter. Though often referred to by the public as "The Carpenters", the duo's official name on authorized recordings and press materials is simply "Carpenters", without the definite article.
During a period in the 1970s when louder and faster-paced rock was in great demand, Richard and Karen produced a distinctively soft musical style that made them one of the best-selling music artists of all time.
Why do birds suddenly appear
Every time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky
Every time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.
On the day that you were born
The angels got together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold
And starlight in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the boys in town
Follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you.

Katson sineen taivaan (English translation: "I'm Looking At The Blue Sky") was the Finnish entry in the Eurovision Song Contest 1979, performed in Finnish by Katri Helena.
The song was performed fifth on the night (following Ireland's Cathal Dunne with Happy Man and preceding Monaco's Laurent Vaguener with Notre Vie C'Est La Musique). At the close of voting, it had received 38 points, placing 14th in a field of 19.
Etsien käy lapsonen maan
Tokkopa koskaan juurtua saan
Lintunenkin muuttaessaan
pesäpuun löytää vain vaistollaan
Sillä etsien käy lapsonen maan
Haikeus mielen kotina vaan
Siivetön oon etsiessään
Rauhaa en löydä kai milloinkaan
Katson sineen taivaan
Tähti kirkkain sua
Taas mä pyynnöin vaivaan
Ohjaa kotiin mua (2x)
Ohjaa mua
Etsien käy lapsonen maan
Peittäen turhaan kaipaustaan
Toiveenikin, päivien työ
mennessään ilta vie syliin yön
Sillä etsien käy lapsonen maan
Lohtuna iltaan raukenevaan
Tähtiinsä yön loisteensa luo
Eksyneen viitaksi hohteen suo
Katson sineen taivaan
Tähti kirkkain sua
Taas mä pyynnöin vaivaan
Ohjaa kotiin mua...

The child of the earth is looking for love
Will she ever settle down
Even a migrating bird
Finds a nesting tree instinctively
But the child of the earth keeps looking for love
Sadness in her mind
I don't have any wings, but I must keep moving on
Will I ever find peace?
I'm looking at the blue sky, the brightest star
I'm begging you, to lead me home
I'm looking at the blue sky, the brightest star
I'm begging you, to lead me home
Lead me
The child of the earth is looking for love
Trying to hide her longing
All my wishes of the dawning
Will be destroyed by the sunset
The child of the earth is looking for love
Star of the night you are my consolation
As long as your shine
Is lighting up my way
I'm looking at the blue sky, the brightest star
I'm begging you, to lead me home
I'm looking at the blue sky, the brightest star
I'm begging you, to lead me home
(I'm looking at the blue sky, the brightest star )
I'm begging you, to lead me home

From the Broadway Comic Opera
"The Enchantress" - 1911
(Victor Herbert / Harry B. Smith)
Mama is a queen and Papa is a king
So I am a prince (and) I know it
But court etiquette is a dull dreary thing
I just hate it all and I show it
To sing on the stage that's the one life for me
My figure's just like Pavarotti
I know I'd win fame if I sang in Bohéme
That opera by Signor Puccini
I've roulades and the trills
That would send the cold chills
Down the backs of all hearers of my vocal frills
I long to be a primo divo, divo, divo
I long to shine upon the stage
I have the embonpoint
To become a king of song
And my figure would look handsome as a page
I want to be a screechy peachy tenorice
Like other plump boys that I see
I hate society
I hate propriety
Art is calling for me
I'm in the elite and girls sigh at my feet
Still I do not fancy my position
I have not much use for the ladies that I meet
I quite burn with lyric ambition
Those sopranos so sweet
If they made love to me
I'd be a success, that I do know
And Dominggo I'd oust if I once sang in Faust
That opera so charming by Gounod
Girls would be on the brink
Of hysterics, I think
Even strong men would have to go out for a drink
I long to be a primo divo, divo, divo
I long to shine upon the stage
With my avoirdupois
And my tra la la la la
I would be the chief sensation of the age
I long to hear them shouting: "Bravo" to the Divo
Oh, very lovely that must be
That's what I'm dying for
That's what I'm sighing for
Art is calling for me

Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
Allons enfants de la patrie,
Le jour de gloire est arrivé
Contre nous de la tyrannie
L'étendard sanglant est levé
Entendez vous dans les campagnes,
Mugir ces féroces soldats?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
Egorger nos fils, nos compagnes!
Aux armes, citoyens!
Formez vos bataillons!
Marchons! Marchons!
Qu'un sang impur
Abreuve nos sillons!

"Yesterday" is a pop song originally recorded by The Beatles for their album Help! (1965).
"Yesterday" is a pop song originally recorded by The Beatles for their album Help! (1965). According to the Guinness Book of Records, "Yesterday" has the most cover versions of any song ever written. The song remains popular today with more than 3000 recorded cover versions, the first hitting the United Kingdom top 10 three months after the release of Help!. BMI asserts that it was performed over seven million times in the 20th century alone. "Yesterday" was voted the best song of the 20th century, in a 1999 BBC Radio 2 poll of music experts and listeners - despite never being a UK number one single.
Yesterday,
All my troubles seemed so far away,
Now it looks as though they're here to stay,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Suddenly,
I'm not half the man I used to be,
There's a shadow hanging over me,
Oh, yesterday came suddenly.
Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.
Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Why she
Had to go I don't know, she wouldn't say.
I said,
Something wrong, now I long for yesterday.
Yesterday,
Love was such an easy game to play,
Now I need a place to hide away,
Oh, I believe in yesterday.
Mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm-mm.

FILMED @ ST. MARK CATHEDRAL, SEATTLE
CAMERA WOMAN: PUNK DANA
==========================
FILMED @ ST. MARK CATHEDRAL, SEATTLE
CAMERA WOMAN: PUNK DANA
==========================
Left alone, and having been betrayed yet again, Elvira struggles with the realization that Don Giovanni is going to be punished by heaven (presumably still through the agency of Don Ottavio and the others trying to kill him, as far as she knows). The recitative and aria shows how torn she is by feelings of betrayal and pity, how worry about him intrudes on her desire for vengeance. This is a coloratura aria -- i.e. one with rapid scales and arpeggios in the voice, which in this case convey the intensity of her feelings. The orchestra plays a important part, too: listen for the exquisite short solos by flute, clarinet, and bassoon.
The aria is in the form:
A (tonic major) - B (dominant major) - A - C (tonic minor) - A
The differing keys and mode, and the alternation of the main themes, vividly express Elvira's conflicting emotions, which will culminate in her final appeal to DG in the Banquet Scene, and his dragging down to hell.
Mi tradì, quell' alma ingrata,
Infelice, o Dio, mi fa.
Ma tradita e abbandonata,
Provo ancor per lui pietà.
Quando sento il mio tormento,
Di vendetta il cor favella,
Ma se guardo il suo cimento,
Palpitando il cor mi va.
That ungrateful wretch betrayed me,
Made me miserable, oh Lord.
He betrayed and abandoned me,
But I still would forgive him.
When I feel my dreadful anguish,
My heart cries out for vengeance,
But if I gaze upon his features,
My heart still beats with excitement.

CANDIES PROVIDED BY 工藤光子 (SENT FROM JAPAN)
================================
This song is
CANDIES PROVIDED BY 工藤光子 (SENT FROM JAPAN)
================================
This song is written by Renaud, who as a child, always bought candies called "Mistrals"...and on the candy boxes, there was a hidden fortune paper that when ripped away, showed whether or not you could get another free candy...
thats why the song is called "Mistral Gagnant" , Mistral is the candy, and gagnant is winning, the one candy that offers you the chance to get another free candy....
and the lyrics of the song is about a father talks to his daughter how much he loves her. He says her laugh is like the sea... it comes and it goes and then flies away up in the sky like a bird. Then he talks about the candies he used to eat in his childhood (Carambar, 1 cent caramels, Mistal gagnant). He finishes by saying: you must love life... eventhough time kills and takes away the children's laughter and... the Mistral Gagnants... Extremely tender love words to a child.
Here is the lyrics
===========
Ah... m'asseoir sur un banc
cinq minutes avec toi
et regarder les gens
tant qu'y en a
Te parler du bon temps
qu'est mort ou qui r'viendra
en serrant dans ma main
tes p'tits doigts
Pi donner à bouffer
à des pigeons idiots
leur filer des coups d'pied
pour de faux
Et entendre ton rire
qui lézarde les murs
qui sait surtout guérir
mes blessures
Te raconter un peu
comment j'étais, mino
les bombecs fabuleux
qu'on piquait chez l'marchand
car en sac et Mintho
caramels à un franc
et les Mistral gagnants
Ah... marcher sous la pluie
cinq minutes avec toi
et regarder la vie
tant qu'y en a
Te raconter la Terre
en te bouffant des yeux
Te parler de ta mère
un p'tit peu
Et sauter dans les flaques
pour la faire râler
Bousiller nos godasses
et s'marrer
Et entendre ton rire
comme on entend la mer
s'arrêter, repartir
en arrière
Te raconter surtout
les Carambars d'antan
et les coco-boërs
et les vrais roudoudous
qui nous coupaient les lèvres
et nous niquaient les dents
et les Mistral gagnants
Ah... m'asseoir sur un banc
cinq minutes avec toi
regarder le soleil
qui s'en va
Te parler du bon temps
qu'est mort et je m'en fous
Te dire que les méchants
c'est pas nous
Que si moi je suis barge
ce n'est que de tes yeux
car ils ont l'avantage
d'être deux
Et entendre ton rire
s'envoler aussi haut
que s'envolent les cris
des oiseaux
Te raconter enfin
qu'il faut aimer la vie
et l'aimer même si
le temps est assassin
et emporte avec lui
les rires des enfants
et les Mistral gagnants
et les Mistral gagnants
