There is a woman in somalia
Scraping for pearls on the roadside
There's a force stronger than nature
Keeps her will alive
That's how she's dying
She's dying to survive
Don't know what she's made of
I would like to be that brave
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes
Hurts like brand-new shoes
There is a woman in somalia
The sun gives her no mercy
The same sky we lay under
Burns her to the bone
Long as afternoon shaddows
It's gonna take her to get home
Each grain carefully wrapped up
Pearls for her little girl
Hallelujah
Hallelujah
She cries to the heaven above
There is a stone in my heart
She lives a life she didn't choose
And it hurts like brand-new shoes

Neil Young - Harvest moon
Come a little bit closer
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away.
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night.
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart.
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye.
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.
Hear what I have to say
Just like children sleepin'
We could dream this night away.
But there's a full moon risin'
Let's go dancin' in the light
We know where the music's playin'
Let's go out and feel the night.
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.
When we were strangers
I watched you from afar
When we were lovers
I loved you with all my heart.
But now it's gettin' late
And the moon is climbin' high
I want to celebrate
See it shinin' in your eye.
Because I'm still in love with you
I want to see you dance again
Because I'm still in love with you
On this harvest moon.

Django Reinhardt and Stephane Grapelli - Body and Soul
"Body and Soul" by Johnny Green and Edward Heyman/Robert Sour/Frank Eyton
My heart is sad and lonely
For you I sigh, for you, dear, only
Why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you, body and soul.
For you I sigh, for you, dear, only
Why haven't you seen it?
I'm all for you, body and soul.
I spend my days in longing
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you, I mean it
I'm all for you, body and soul.
And wondering why it's me you're wronging
I tell you, I mean it
I'm all for you, body and soul.
I can't believe it, it's hard to conceive it
That you'd turn away romance.
Are you pretending? It looks like the ending
Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear.
That you'd turn away romance.
Are you pretending? It looks like the ending
Unless I could have one more chance to prove, dear.
My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I'd gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.
My life a wreck you're making
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I would gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.
You know I'm yours for just the taking
I would gladly surrender myself to you, body and soul.

Dire Straits - Why Worry
Baby I see this world has made you sad
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
That turn your blue skies into grey
Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Baby when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
I know it isn't hard to say
But baby just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunsh ine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Some people can be bad
The things they do, the things they say
But baby I'll wipe away those bitter tears
I'll chase away those restless fears
That turn your blue skies into grey
Why worry, there should be laughter after the pain
There should be sunshine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Baby when I get down I turn to you
And you make sense of what I do
I know it isn't hard to say
But baby just when this world seems mean and cold
Our love comes shining red and gold
And all the rest is by the way
Why worry, there should be laughter after pain
There should be sunsh ine after rain
These things have always been the same
So why worry now
Play it, Sam - Casablanca
As time goes by
music and words by Herman Hupfeld
[This day and age we're living in
Gives cause for apprehension
With speed and new invention
And things like fourth dimension.
Yet we get a trifle weary
With Mr. Einstein's theory.
So we must get down to earth at times
Relax relieve the tension
And no matter what the progress
Or what may yet be proved
The simple facts of life are such
They cannot be removed.]
You must remember this
A kiss is just a kiss, a sigh is just a sigh.
The fundamental things apply
As time goes by.
And when two lovers woo
They still say, "I love you."
On that you can rely
No matter what the future brings
As time goes by.
Moonlight and love songs
Never out of date.
Hearts full of passion
Jealousy and hate.
Woman needs man
And man must have his mate
That no one can deny.
It's still the same old story
A fight for love and glory
A case of do or die.
The world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.
Oh yes, the world will always welcome lovers
As time goes by.

Luciano Pavarotti - Nessun Dorma
Italiano
Nessun dorma! Nessun dorma! Tu pure, o, Principessa, nella tua fredda stanza, guardi le stelle che tremano d'amore e di speranza. Ma il mio mistero e chiuso in me, il nome mio nessun saprá! No, no, sulla tua bocca lo diró quando la luce splenderá! Ed il mio bacio sciogliera il silenzio che ti fa mia! (Il nome suo nessun saprá!... e noi dovrem, ahimé, morir!) Dilegua, o notte! Tramontate, stelle! Tramontate, stelle! All'alba vinceró! vinceró, vinceró!
Inglês
No-one sleeps....no-one sleeps,
Even you, O Princess,
in your cold room,
Watch the stars
which tremble with love
and hope!
But my secret is locked within me,
no-one shall know my name!
No, no, I shall say it on your mouth
when the light breaks!
And my kiss will break the silence
that makes you mine!
(No-one shall know his name,
and we, alas, shall die!)
Vanish, o night!
Set, ye stars!
At dawn I shall win!
Jeff Beck - Nessun Dorma - TURANDOT di PUCCINI

Caetano Veloso - O Ultimo Romântico
Só falta abandonar a velha escola
Tomar o mundo feito coca-cola
Fazer da minha vida sempre o meu passeio público
E ao mesmo tempo fazer dela o meu caminho só, único
Tomar o mundo feito coca-cola
Fazer da minha vida sempre o meu passeio público
E ao mesmo tempo fazer dela o meu caminho só, único
Talvez eu seja o último romântico
Dos litorais desse oceano atlântico
Só falta reunir a zona norte à zona sul
Iluminar a vida já que a morte cai do azul
Dos litorais desse oceano atlântico
Só falta reunir a zona norte à zona sul
Iluminar a vida já que a morte cai do azul
Só falta de querer
Te ganhar e te perder
Falta eu acordar, ser gente grande pra poder chorar
Te ganhar e te perder
Falta eu acordar, ser gente grande pra poder chorar
Me dá um beijo então, aperta minha mão
Tolice é viver a vida assim sem aventura
Deixa ser pelo coração
Se é loucura então, melhor não ter razão
Tolice é viver a vida assim sem aventura
Deixa ser pelo coração
Se é loucura então, melhor não ter razão
Me dá um beijo então, aperta minha mão
Tolice é viver a vida assim sem aventura
Deixa ser pelo coração
Se é loucura então, melhor não ter razão
Tolice é viver a vida assim sem aventura
Deixa ser pelo coração
Se é loucura então, melhor não ter razão

You have a right to experiment with your life. You will make mistakes. And they are right too.

Mariza - Oh gente da minha terra
Ó Gente da Minha Terra
Amália Rodrigues
canta Mariza
É meu e vosso este fado
Destino que nos amarra
Por mais que seja negado
Às cordas de uma guitarra
Destino que nos amarra
Por mais que seja negado
Às cordas de uma guitarra
Sempre que se ouve o gemido
De uma guitarra a cantar
Fica-se logo perdido
Com vontade de chorar
De uma guitarra a cantar
Fica-se logo perdido
Com vontade de chorar
Ó gente da minha terra
Agora é que eu percebi
Esta tristeza que trago
Foi de vós que recebi
Agora é que eu percebi
Esta tristeza que trago
Foi de vós que recebi
E pareceria ternura
Se eu me deixasse embalar
Era maior a amargura
Menos triste o meu cantar
Se eu me deixasse embalar
Era maior a amargura
Menos triste o meu cantar
Ó gente da minha terra
Agora é que eu percebi
Esta tristeza que trago
Foi de vós que recebi
Agora é que eu percebi
Esta tristeza que trago
Foi de vós que recebi
(SOLO)
Ó gente da minha terra
Agora é que eu percebi
Esta tristeza que trago
Foi de vós que recebi
Antonio Ramos Rosa
Não posso adiar o amor para outro século
não posso
ainda que o grito sufoque na garganta
ainda que o ódio estale e crepite e arda
sob as montanhas cinzentas
e montanhas cinzentas
Não posso adiar este braço
que é uma arma de dois gumes amor e ódio
Não posso adiar
ainda que a noite pese séculos sobre as costas
e a aurora indecisa demore
não posso adiar para outro século a minha vida
nem o meu amor
nem o meu grito de libertação
Não posso adiar o coração.
