I Want You Back - The Jackson Five


Uh-huh huh huh huh
Let me tell ya now
Uh-huh

VERSE 1:
When I had you to myself
I didn't want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch
one glance was all it took
Now it's much too late for me to take a second look

CHORUS:
Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
Yes I do now
(I want you back)
Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
Na na na na

VERSE 2:
Tryin' to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl
That I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on
I leave tearstains on the ground
Following the girl
I didn't even want around
Let me tell you now

CHORUS:
Oh baby all I need is one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won't you please let me
(back to your heart)
Oh darlin' I was blind to let you go
(let you go baby)
But now since I see you in his arms

Uh-huh
A buh buh buh buh (2 times)
All I want
A buh buh buh buh
All I need
A buh buh buh buh
All I want
A buh buh buh buh
All I need

(Jermaine):
Oh just one more chance
to show you that I love you
baby! (6 times)

(I want you back)
(Jackie):
Forget what happened then
(I want you back)
(Jermaine):
Let me live again

Oh baby I was blind to let you go
But now since I see you in his arms
(I want you back)
(Jackie):
Spare me of this cause
(Jermaine):
Gimme back what I lost

Oh baby I need one more chance ha
I tell ya that I love you

Killing Me Softly - Roberta Flack



Strumming my pain with his fingers, 
Singing my life with his words, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Telling my whole life with his words, 
Killing me softly, with his song. 

I heard he sang a good song. 
I heard he had a style. 
And so I came to see him, 
To listen for a while. 
And there he was, this young boy, 
A stranger to my eyes. 

Strumming my pain with his fingers, 
Singing my life with his words, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Telling my whole life with his words, 
Killing me softly, with his song. 

I felt all flushed with fever, 
Embarrassed by the crowd. 
I felt he found my letters, 
And read each one out loud. 
I prayed that he would finish, 
But he just kept right on. 

Strumming my pain with his fingers, 
Singing my life with his words, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Telling my whole life with his words, 
Killing me softly, with his song. 

He sang as if he knew me 
In all my dark despair. 
And then he looked right through me 
As if I wasn't there. 
And he just kept on singing, 
Singing clear and strong. 

Strumming my pain with his fingers, 
Singing my life with his words, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Killing me softly with his song, 
Telling my whole life with his words, 
Killing me softly, with his song.

You Only Live Once - The Strokes



Oooooh 
Some people think they´re always right 
Others are quiet and uptight 
Others they seem so very nice nice nice nice nice oh oh 
Inside they might feel sad and wrong 

Oh no 
29 different attributes 
And only 7 that you like, uh oh 
20 ways to see the world, oh oh 
Or 20 ways to start a fight 

Oh don´t dont don´t 
Get out 
I can see the sun shine 
I´ll be waiting for you baby 
´Cause I´m through 
Sit me down 
Shut me up 
I´ll calm down 
And I´ll get along with you 

Ooooooo-ooooo-ooooooh 
A man don´t notice what they got 
When they think they´re down on luck 
1000 ways to please your a man oh oh 
And neither one requires a plan 
Oh gods and all religion too 
It doesn´t matter which you choose 
One step away and you turn your back 
I guess I´ve tried and i refuse 

Oh don´t don´t don´t 
Get out 
I can see the sun shine 
I´ll be waiting for you, baby 
´Cause I´m through 
Sit me down 
Shut me up 
I´ll calm down 
And I´ll get along with you 

Alright.. 
Shut me up 
Shut me up up up up up 
And I´ll get along with you...

Calice - Chico Buarque (y Milton Nascimento)



Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
De vinho tinto de sangue

Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
De vinho tinto de sangue

Como beber dessa bebida amarga
Tragar a dor, engolir a labuta
Mesmo calada a boca, resta o peito
Silêncio na cidade não se escuta
De que me vale ser filho da santa
Melhor seria ser filho da outra
Outra realidade menos morta
Tanta mentira, tanta força bruta

Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
De vinho tinto de sangue

Como é difícil acordar calado
Se na calada da noite eu me dano
Quero lançar um grito desumano
Que é uma maneira de ser escutado
Esse silêncio todo me atordoa
Atordoado eu permaneço atento
Na arquibancada pra a qualquer momento
Ver emergir o monstro da lagoa

Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
De vinho tinto de sangue

De muito gorda a porca já não anda
De muito usada a faca já não corta
Como é difícil, pai, abrir a porta
Essa palavra presa na garganta
Esse pileque homérico no mundo
De que adianta ter boa vontade
Mesmo calado o peito, resta a cuca
Dos bêbados do centro da cidade

Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
Pai, afasta de mim esse cálice
De vinho tinto de sangue

Talvez o mundo não seja pequeno
Nem seja a vida um fato consumado
Quero inventar o meu próprio pecado
Quero morrer do meu próprio veneno
Quero perder de vez tua cabeça
Minha cabeça perder teu juízo
Quero cheirar fumaça de óleo diesel
Me embriagar até que alguém me esqueça

Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys



Ah! i love the colorful clothes she wears,
And the way the sunlight plays upon her hair
Ahhhhhh! i hear the sound of a gentle word,
On the wind that lifts her perfume through the air.

I'm pickin' up good vibrations, she's givin' me the excitations.
I'm pickin' up good vibrations, she's givin' me the excitations.

Good, good, good, good vibrations, she's givin' me the excitation.
Good, good, good, good vibrations, she's givin' me the excitations.

close my eyes, she's somehow closer now,
Softly smile, i know she must be kind.
When i look in her eyes,
She goes with me to a blossom world.

Refrain

My, my, my, what e(lation),
I don`t know where, but she sends me there.
My, my, my, what a sen(sation),
My, my, my, what elation.

(gotta keep those love good
Vibrations are happening with her) x3

Ahhhhhh!

Refrain

Mother Nature´s Son - The Beatles


Born a poor young country boy
Mother Nature's son. 

All day longn I'm sitting singing songs 
For everyone. 

Sit besiude a mountain stream-see 
Her waters rise. 

Listen to the pretty sound of music as she flies, 
Find me in my field 
of grass --Mother 
Nature's son. 

Swaying daises sing a lazy song 
Beneath the sun. 

Mother Nature's Son.

Six Strings - Adrian Belew



I saw you the very first time
Built so pretty
You looked just right
It was love at first sight
I looked real close
I touched your arm
My heart went off like a fire alarm
I was amplified

Something happens
When I hold you in my hands
I'm a different man
Something happens
And I lose all sense of time
I can almost fly

Everytime I go to pick you up
I feel a little spark in my fingertips
I'm electrified
The magic touch
You feel so good
The way you respond to everything I do
I'm magnetized

Something happens
When I hold you in my hands
I'm a different man
Something happens
And I lose all sense of time
I can almost fly

I love your back, I love your head
But I love it best
When I run
My fingers down your neck

If I Can´t Have You - Yvonne Elliman

Otro de los temas compuestos por los Bee Gees cuya primera versión interpretada por Yvonne Elliman se incluyó en el mítico Saturday Night Fever.

Con la maravillosa voz de Yvonne y los maravillosos arreglos orquestales.

Espero que os guste


Don't know why 
I'm survivin' ev'ry lonely day 
When there's got to be no chance for me 
My life would end 
And it doesn't matter how I cry 
My tears, so far, are a waste of time 
If I turn away 
Am I strong enough to see it through 
Go crazy is what I will do 

CHORUS: 

If I can't have you 
I don't want nobody, baby 
If I can't have you...uh-huh, oh 
If I can't have you 
I don't want nobody, baby 
If I can't have you...uh-hoh 

Oh...da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da, da 
Oooh, oooh 
Aahhhh! Aahhhh! 

Can't let go and it doesn't matter how I try 
I gave it all so easily to you my love 
To dreams that never will come true 
Am I strong enough to see it through 
Go crazy is what I will do

Daydream Believer - John Stewart


Oh I could hide neath the wings 
of the bluebird as she sings 
The six o'clock alarm would never ring 
but it rings and I rise 
wipe the sleep out of my eyes 
my shaving razors cold and it stings. 

Cheer up sleepy Jean 
oh what can it mean 
to a daydream believer 
and a homecoming queen. 

You once thought of me 
as a white knight on his steed 
now you know how happy I can be 
oh and our good times start and end 
without dollar one to spend 
but how much baby do we really need. 

Cheer up sleepy Jean 
oh what can it mean 
to a daydream believer 
and a homecoming queen. 

Cheer up sleepy Jean 
oh what can it mean 
to a daydream believer 
and a homecoming queen. 

Cheer up sleepy Jean 
oh what can it mean 
to a daydream believer 
and a homecoming queen...

Keep Yourself Alive - Queen



Words and music by brian may
I was told a million times
of all the troubles in my way
tried to grow a little wiser
little better ev'ry day
but if i crossed a million rivers
and i rode a million miles
then i'd still be where i started
bread and butter for a smile
well i sold a million mirrors
in a shop in alley way
but i never saw my face
in any window any day
well they say your folks are telling you
to be a superstar
but i tell you just be satisfied
to stay right where you are
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
it'll take you all your time and a money
honey you'll survive
Well i've loved a million women
in a belladonic haze
and i ate a million dinners
brought to me on silver trays
give me ev'rything i need
to feed my body and my soul
and i'll grow a little bigger
maybe that can be my goal
i was told a million times
of all the people in my way
how i had to keep on trying
and get better ev'ry day
but if i crossed a million rivers
and i rode a million miles
then i'd still be where i started
same as when i started
Keep yourself alive keep yourself alive
it'll take you all your time and a money
honey you'll survive
Keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
it'll take you all your time and a money
to keep me satisfied
do you think you're better ev'ry day?
no i think i'm two steps nearer to my grave
keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive mm
you take your time and take more money
keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
all you people keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
it'll take you all your time and money
to keep me satisfied
keep yourself alive
keep yourself alive
all you people keep yourself alive
take you all your time and money
honey you'll survive
Keep you satisfied
keep you satisfied

Rockin In The Free World - Neil Young


There's colors on the street 
Red, white and blue 
People shufflin' their feet 
People sleepin' in their shoes 
But there's a warnin' sign 
on the road ahead 
There's a lot of people sayin' 
we'd be better off dead 
Don't feel like Satan, 
but I am to them 
So I try to forget it, 
any way I can. 

Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world 
Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world. 

I see a woman in the night 
With a baby in her hand 
Under an old street light 
Near a garbage can 
Now she puts the kid away, 
and she's gone to get a hit 
She hates her life, 
and what she's done to it 
There's one more kid 
that will never go to school 
Never get to fall in love, 
never get to be cool. 

Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world 
Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world. 

We got a thousand points of light 
For the homeless man 
We got a kinder, gentler, 
Machine gun hand 
We got department stores 
and toilet paper 
Got styrofoam boxes 
for the ozone layer 
Got a man of the people, 
says keep hope alive 
Got fuel to burn, 
got roads to drive. 

Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world 
Keep on rockin' in the free world, 
Keep on rockin' in the free world.

America - Neil Diamond



FAR, we've been travelin in FAR
Without a home, But not without a star
Free, only one can be free
We huddle close, and hang on to a dream

On the boats and on the planes, They come into America
Never looking back again, They come into America

Home...though it seems so far away
And we'll travel in the light today,
in the eye of the storm...in the eye of the storm
Home...to a new and a shiny place
Make our beds and we'll say our grace
Freedoms light burnng warm, freedoms light burning warm

Everywhere around the world, they come into Ameria
Every time that flags on the furled, they come into America
Got a dream to take them there, they come into America
Got a dream they come to share, they come into America

4x:
They come in to America
4x:
Today
My country 'tis of thee (today)
Sweet land of liberty (today)
Of thee I sing (today)
Of thee I sing (today)

Today, today, today, today, today

Brilliant Disguise - Bruce Springsteen


I hold you in my arms
as the band plays
what are those words whispered baby
just as you turn away
i saw you last night
out on the edge of town
i wanna read your mind
to know just what i've got in this new thing i've found
so tell me what i see
when i look in your eyes
is that you baby
or just a brilliant disguise
I heard somebody call your name
from underneath our willow
i saw something tucked in shame
underneath your pillow
well i've tried so hard baby
but i just can't see
what a woman like you
is doing with me
so tell me who i see
when i look in your eyes
is that you baby
or just a brilliant disguise
Now look at me baby
struggling to do everything right
and then it all falls apart
when out go the lights
i'm just a lonely pilgrim
i walk this world in wealth
i want to know if it's you i don't trust
'cause i damn sure don't trust myself
Now you play the loving woman
i'll play the faithful man
but just don't look too close
into the palm of my hand
we stood at the alter
the gypsy swore our future was right
but come the wee wee hours
well maybe baby the gypsy lied
so when you look at me
you better look hard and look twice
is that me baby
or just a brilliant disguise
Tonight our bed is cold
i'm lost in the darkness of our love
god have mercy on the man
who doubts what he's sure of

The Boys Are Back in Town - Thin Lizzy



Guess who just got back today?
Them wild-eyed boys that had been away
Haven't changed, have much to say
But man, I still think them cats are crazy

They were asking if you were around
How you was, where you could be found
Told them you were living downtown
Driving all the old men crazy

The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
I said
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town
The boys are back in town

You know that chick that used to dance a lot
Every night she'd be on the floor shaking what she'd got
Man when I tell you she was cool, she was red hot
I mean she was steaming
