„The Best“
I call you when I need you, my heart’s on fire
You come to me, come to me wild and wild
When you come to me
Give me everything I need
Give me a lifetime of promises
and a world of dreams
Speak a language of love
like you know what it means
Mmm, and it can’t be wrong
Take my heart and make it strong, baby
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead
In your heart, I see the star of every night and every day
In your eyes, I get lost, I get washed away
Just as long as I’m here in your arms
I could be in no better place
You’re simply the best
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Tear us apart
Baby, I would rather be dead
Each time you leave me, I start losing control
You’re walking away with my heart and my soul
I can feel you even when I’m alone
Oh baby, don’t let go
Ooh, you’re the best, ooh
Better than all the rest
Better than anyone
Anyone I’ve ever met
Ooh, I’m stuck on your heart
I hang on every word you say
Don’t tear us apart, no, no
Baby, I would rather be dead
You’re the best
Nina Hagen/Automobil:
„Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen“
Hoch stand der Sanddorn am Strand von Hiddensee
Micha, mein Micha, und alles tat so weh
Dass die Kaninchen scheu schauten aus dem Bau
So laut entlud sich mein Leid in’s Himmelblau
So böse stampfte mein nackter Fuß den Sand
Und schlug ich von meiner Schulter deine Hand
Micha, mein Micha, und alles tat so weh
Tu das noch einmal Micha, und ich geh
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen, mein Michael
Nun glaubt uns kein Mensch, wie schön’s hier war haha, haha
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen bei meiner Seel‘
Alles blau und weiß und grün und später nicht mehr wahr
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen bei meiner Seel‘
Alles blau und weiß und grün und später nicht mehr wahr
Nun sitz ich wieder bei dir und mir zu Haus
Und such die Fotos für’s Fotoalbum aus
Ich im Bikini und ich am FKK
Ich frech im Mini, Landschaft ist auch da, ja
Aber, wie schrecklich, die Tränen kullern heiß
Landschaft und Nina und alles nur schwarzweiß
Micha, mein Micha, und alles tut so weh
Tu das noch einmal Micha, und ich geh
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen, mein Michael
Nun glaubt uns kein Mensch, wie schön’s hier war haha, haha
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen bei meiner Seel‘
Alles blau und weiß und grün und später nicht mehr wahr
Du hast den Farbfilm vergessen bei meiner Seel‘
Alles blau und weiß und grün und später nicht mehr wahr

„SOS“
Where are those happy days they seem to hard to find?
I try to reach for you, but you have closed my mind
Whatever happened to our love?
I wish I understoodIt used to be so nice.
It used to be so good
So when you’re near me, darling, can’t you hear me S.O.S.?
The love you gave me. Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
When you’re gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you’re gone though I try how can I carry on?
You seem so far away though you are standing near
You made me feel alive but something died I fear
I really tried to make it out. I wish I understood
What happened to our love? It used to be so good
So when you’re near me, darling, can’t you hear me S.O.S.?
The love you gave me. Nothing else can save me, S.O.S.
When you’re gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you’re gone though I try how can I carry on?
When you’re gone, how can I even try to go on?
When you’re gone though I try how can I carry on
Elton John
„Can you feel the love tonight?“
There’s a calm surrender
To the rush of day
When the heat of a rolling world
Can be turned away.
An enchanted moment
And it sees me through
It’s enough for this restless warrior
Just to be with you
And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)
It is where we are.
It’s enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far.
And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)
How it’s laid to rest?
It’s enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
There’s a time for everyone
If they only learn
That the twisting kaleidoscope
Moves us all in turn
There’s a rhyme and reason
To the wild outdoors
When the heart of this star-crossed voyager
Beats in time with yours
And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)
It is where we are.
It’s enough for this wide-eyed wanderer
That we got this far.
And can you feel the love tonight? (Tonight)
How it’s laid to rest?
It’s enough to make kings and vagabonds
Believe the very best
Johnny Nash:
„I can see clearly now the rain is gone“
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
Its gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
Ooh, yes, I can make it now the pain is gone
All of the bad feelings have disappeared
Here is that rainbow I’ve been praying for
It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
(Ooh) look all around, there’s nothing but blue skies
Look straight ahead, theres nothing but blue skies
I can see clearly now the rain is gone
I can see all obstacles in my way
Gone are the dark clouds that had me blind
Its gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
It’s gonna be a bright (bright)
Bright (bright) sunshiny day
Otis Redding
„Dock of the bay“
Sittin‘ in the mornin‘ sun
I’ll be sittin‘ when the evenin‘ come
Watching the ships roll in
And then I watch ‚em roll away again, yeah
I’m sittin‘ on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m just sittin‘ on the dock of the bay
Wastin‘ time
I left my home in Georgia
Headed for the ‚Frisco bay
I’ve had nothing to live for
Look like nothin’s gonna come my way
So I’m just gonna sittin’ on the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sittin‘ on the dock of the bay
Wastin‘ time
Look like nothing’s gonna change
Everything still remains the same
I can’t do what ten people tell me to do
So I guess I’ll remain the same, yes
Sittin‘ here resting my bones
And this loneliness won’t leave me alone
It’s two thousand miles I roamed
Just to make this dock my home
Now, I’m just gonna sit at the dock of the bay
Watching the tide roll away
I’m sittin‘ on the dock of the bay
Wastin‘ time
ABBA
„Thank you for the music“
I’m nothing special, in fact I’m a bit of a bore
If I tell a joke, you’ve probably heard it before
But I have a talent, a wonderful thing
‚Cause everyone listens when I start to sing
I’m so grateful and proud
All I want is to sing it out loud
So I say thank you for the music,
the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it?
I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
Mother says I was a dancer before I could walk
Mhm, she says I began to sing long before I could talk
And I’ve often wondered, how did it all start?
Who found out that nothing can capture a heart
Like a melody can?
Well, whoever it was, I’m a fan
So I say thank you for the music,
the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it?
I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
I’ve been so lucky
I am the girl with golden hair
I wanna sing it out to everybody
What a joy, what a life, what a chance
Thank you for the music,
the songs I’m singing
Thanks for all the joy they’re bringing
Who can live without it?
I ask in all honesty
What would life be?
Without a song or a dance, what are we?
So I say thank you for the music, for giving it to me
