L'Italiano - Toto Cotugno

Brigitte Bardot
Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
sono un italiano

Buongiorno Italia gli spaghetti al dente
e un partigiano come Presidente
con l'autoradio sempre nella mano destra
e un canarino sopra la finestra

Buongiorno Italia con i tuoi artisti
con troppa America sui manifesti
con le canzoni con amore
con il cuore
con piu' donne sempre meno suore

Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io

Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantare
perche' ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero

Buongiorno Italia che non si spaventa
e con la crema da barba alla menta
con un vestito gessato sul blu
e la moviola la domenica in TV
Buongiorno Italia col caffe' ristretto
le calze nuove nel primo cassetto
con la bandiera in tintoria
e una 600 giu' di carrozzeria

Buongiorno Italia
buongiorno Maria
con gli occhi pieni di malinconia
buongiorno Dio
lo sai che ci sono anch'io

Lasciatemi cantare
con la chitarra in mano
lasciatemi cantare
una canzone piano piano
Lasciatemi cantare
perche' ne sono fiero
sono un italiano
un italiano vero.

L' Appuntamento - Ornella Vanoni

Ho sbagliato tante volte ormai che lo so già
che oggi quasi certamente
sto sbagliando su di te ma una volta in più
che cosa può cambiare nella vita mia...
accettare questo strano appuntamento
è stata una pazzia!
Sono triste tra la gente
che mi sta passando accanto
ma la nostalgia di rivedere te
è forte più del pianto:
questo sole accende sul mio volto
un segno di speranza.
Sto aspettando quando ad un tratto
ti vedrò spuntare in lontananza!
Amore, fai presto, io non resisto...
se tu non arrivi non esisto
non esisto, non esisto...
e cambiato il tempo e sta piovendo
ma resto ad aspettare
non m'importa cosa il mondo può pensare
io non me ne voglio andare.
io mi guardo dentro e mi domando
ma non sento niente;
sono solo un resto di speranza
perduta tra la gente.
Amore è già tardi e non resisto...
se tu non arrivi non esisto
non esisto, non esisto...
luci, macchine, vetrine, strade
tutto quanto si confonde nella mente
la mia ombra si è stancata di seguirmi
il giorno muore lentamente.
Non mi resta che tornare a casa mia
alla mia triste vita
questa vita che volevo dare a te
l' hai sbriciolata tra le dita.
Amore perdono ma non resisto...
adesso per sempre non esisto
non esisto, non esisto...

Here with me - Dido

Grace Kelly
I didn't hear you leave
I wonder how am I still here
And I don't want to move a thing
It might change my memory

Oh I am what I am
I'll do what I want
But I can't hide
I won't go
I won't sleep
I can't breathe
Until you're resting here with me
I won't leave
I can't hide
I cannot be
Until you're resting here with me

I don't want to call my friends
They might wake me from this dream
And I can't leave this bed
Risk forgetting all that's been

Beautiful Distraction - Ilse DeLange

Kate Moss
You found me
Singing songs about the rain
I found you; I couldn't find words to explain
How you were the day I was the dark of night
How the world spun around us like a satellite
How you met me in the middle and I held on tight

You will always be my beautiful distraction
One part sweetness two parts passion
Everyday you make me feel brand new
You asked for my heart not perfection
The first one to lead me in the right direction
This crazy world won't change the same old me
Who loves the same old you

You brought me back when I'd forgotten how to fall
To fall in love
Showed me I could have it all
And not give up a single thing I am
When I said I couldn't you said
Yes we can
It took me all this time now I understand, I do

You will always be my beautiful distraction
One part sweetness two parts passion
Everyday you make me feel brand new
You asked for my heart not perfection
The first one to lead me in the right direction
This crazy world won't change the same old me
Who loves the same old you

Here I am talking about forever
Never thought I'd say it, never ever
Hold me once, hold me twice, hold me for the rest of my life

You will always be my beautiful distraction
One part sweetness two parts passion
Everyday you make me feel brand new
You asked for my heart not perfection
The first one to lead me in the right direction
This crazy world won't change the same old me
Who loves the same old you

Brindo - Devendra Banhart

Brindo a este amor, un amor tan raro
Brindo a este amor, un amor tan claro
Brindo a este amor, un amor de repente
Brindo a este amor, un amor tan diferente
Como la orsita en el mar
Un elemento nuevo pa' jugar
Brindo a este amor que me llena de esperanza
Y brindo a esa luz allá en la distancia
Venga Colibrí despierta a la diosa oh
Que canta-te a mi su canción preciosa
Brindo a todo lo que quiero dar
A todo que está punto a empezar
Brindo a este amor que nunca se demora
Sólo el hospital está abierto a esta hora
No pienso en ti
sólo te siento
pasando por mi
como un dulce viento.

Talking to the moon - Bruno Mars

Romy Schneider
I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away
I want you back
I want you back
My neighbors think
I'm crazy
But they don't understand
You're all I have
You're all I have

At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself

Talking to the Moon
Trying to get to You
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

I'm feeling like I'm famous
The talk of the town
They say
I've gone mad
Yeah
I've gone mad
But they don't know
what I know

Cause when the
sun goes down
someone's talking back
They're talking back

At night when the stars
light up my room
I sit by myself
Talking to the Moon
Trying to get to You
In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

Do you ever hear me calling?
Cause every night
I'm talking to the moon
Still trying to get to you

In hopes you're on
the other side
Talking to me too
Or am I a fool
who sits alone
Talking to the moon

I know you're somewhere out there
Somewhere far away

Fell in love - Alain Clark

Audrey Hepburn
Well I’ve been to many places
I’ve spent most of my days travelling round
And I took a lot of chances
I had romances all over town
It was almost my religion
You don’t fall in love
You just kiss and say goodbye

I have left many missing me, but to say I didn’t care would be a lie
I fell in love, every time
I fell in love, weak heart of mine

Well love is probably trouble
I have had a lot of rumble on the way

One girl wants to play the part that the night before I blindly gave away
I really care about you babe, I promise I won’t ever let you down
Came along, an other girl a different love and the circle went around

I fell in love, every time
I fell in love, weak heart of mine
I fell in love, every time
I fell in love, weak heart of mine

I tried to be so careful with what I say
My heart was never helpful to my head
I’ve been in many places, spent most of my days just getting high
And I took a lot of chances, had many romances on the fly

I fell in love, every time
I fell in love, weak heart of mine
I fell in love, every time
I fell in love, weak heart of mine

Good days - Alain Clark


















The same road leads to the same house
I wish this key would fit the door still
The same backyard but with a new fence, oh yeah
See, I dont live here anymore
Daddy used to pick me up
Make me feel like I was flying
Mommy used to laugh about me
And I wasn't even trying
Never a worry on my mind
I was the king, the world was blind
Everything's still the same except the time
Memories of the years I've left behind
And altough I'm movin' on and I can't be forever young
The good days are forever in my mind
The same boy still gettin' in trouble
Oh, how we love to bend the rules
The same old friends still hangin the courtyard
But this time to pick their children up from school
Never had a boring day, there was always something cooking
You know, we never missed a thing we were way to busy looking
We knew the words to every song, we were right and they were wrong
But most of all, we were right where we belong
Everything's still the same except the time (except the time)
Memories of the years I've left behind (ooh-oh)
And altough i'm movin' on and I can't be forever young
The good days are forever in my mind
What I'd give for just another day
Of innocents I trade my right
If only it were just to run away
From all these lies
Haven't snuck their way inside
Everything's still the same except the time
Good old time
Everything's still the same except the time (except the time)
Memories of the years I've left behind (I've left behind)
And altough I'm movin' on and I can't be forever young
The good days are forever in my mind
And everything's the same except the time
Memories of the years I've left behind (I've left behind)
And altough I'm movin' on and I can't be forever young
The good days are forever
Stuck in my mind
In my mind and though
Back in the day
Seemed like everything was okay
Said I remember the time I was a little boy, dreamin' being a man
It was so unconvinced I knew it all, people didn't understand
No one ever knew what we did back there we had it all so figured out
The world at our feet our hearts
on the street the only thing we cared about

Use somebody - Pixie Lott




I've been roaming around
Always looking down at all I see
Painted faces, fill the places I can't reach
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you, and all you know, and how you speak
Countless lovers under cover of the street
I know that I could use somebody
You know that I could use somebody
Someone like you
Off in the night, while you live it up, I'm off to sleep
Waging wars to shape the poet and the beat
I hope it's gonna make you notice
Someone like me
I'm ready now, I'm ready now
Someone like you
You know that I could use somebody
You that I could use somebody, yeah
I've been roaming around,
Always looking down at all I see

Apologize - Pixie Lott

I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground
And I'm hearing what you say
But I just can't make a sound
You tell me that you need me
Then you go and cut me down
But wait...
You tell me that you're sorry
Didn't think I'd turn around and say..

That it's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'd take another chance, take a fall, take a shot for you
And I need you like a heart needs a beat
(But that's nothing new) Yeah yeah

I loved you with a fire red, now it's turning blue
And you say
Sorry like the Angel Heaven let me think was you,
But I'm afraid

It's too late to apologize, it's too late
I said it's too late to apologize, it's too late

I'm holding on your rope
Got me ten feet off the ground...

Busy (for me) - Aurea

I tried to call you
But you dindn't answer the phone
I tried to pick you up
But you dindn't come along
I tried to talk to you
But you dindn't even answer me
I tried to reach you

You didn't care
You closed your heart for me
Oh...
(I tried to call you... Pick up the phone)
You're so busy...

Words Unspoken - Supertramp

Why sing a lonely song
The whole world knows that love goes wrong
Why browse a heart that isn't broken
It isn't broken, it can be broken

Life's just a show for free
Come along and watch with me
The only sins are words unspoken
Words unspoken, never spoken

Sweet things come and go
Give me shame I'll give you ?woo?
To live for love isn't so easy
It isn't easy, it won't be easy

How all good men try
Look around and wonder why
Can they ?shave/shape? this world to please me?
Can they please me, should they please me?

And follow and maybe you'll correct me
I wish you never met me
For I am no gentleman
And follow and while you watch and wonder
I'll pull the world a sunder
And show you who I am

Send me a gentle dream
of love so strange it's never seemed
Prove how such a love can happen
It can happen, make it happen

Find things, don't abound
Fade away without a sound
But hope must never end or slacker
Never slacker, never slacker

And follow and maybe you'll correct me
I wish you never met me
For I am no gentleman
And follow and while you watch and wonder
I'll pull the world a sunder
And show you who I am

So Nice (Samba de Verão) - Diana Krall

Natalia Vodianova

Someone to hold me tight
That would be very nice
Someone to love me right
That would be very nice
Someone to understand
Each little dream in me
Someone to take my hand
To be a team with me
So nice
Life would be so nice
If one day I'd find
Someone
Who would take my hand
And samba
Through life with me
Someone to cling to me
Stay with me
Right or wrong
Someone to sing to me
Some little samba song
Someone to take my heart
And give his heart to me
Someone who's ready to
Give love a start with me
Oh, yeah
That would be so nice
I could see you and me
That would be nice

Hoy (Juan Subirá) - Tango Sebastián Arce & Mariana Montes

Leyó otra vez, casi sin ver, envuelto en una densa nube de emoción, perdió su olor, y aquel sabor de las mañanas, de una vida que venció.
Leyó otra vez, y caminó bajo esa puta lluvia que no deja de golpear y la sintió, qué va a sentir!, mientras las lágrimas brotaban a granel.
Leyó otra vez, se sorprendió, buscando auxilio, un remedio, compasión, y en un café se refugió y afuera el mundo continuaba sin razón.
 
Leyó otra vez, se dijo adiós, en adelante solo habría despedidas. Hoy no supo, está roto por adentro. Fue tan bruta la sentencia, esa clínica evidencia.
