Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it’s Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Now it’s Turkish delight on a moonlit night
Every gal in Constantinople
Lives in Istanbul, not Constantinople
So if you’ve a date in Constantinople
She’ll be waiting in Istanbul
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can’t say
People just liked it better that way
So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can’t go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That’s nobody’s business but the Turks
Istanbul, Istanbul
Istanbul, Istanbul
Even old New York was once New Amsterdam
Why they changed it I can’t say
People just liked it better that way
Istanbul was Constantinople
Now it’s Istanbul, not Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That’s nobody’s business but the Turks
So take me back to Constantinople
No, you can’t go back to Constantinople
Been a long time gone, Constantinople
Why did Constantinople get the works?
That’s nobody’s business but the Turks
Istanbul

”Golden Eye”
Melodie de: Tina Turner

[Verse 1]
See reflections on the water
More than darkness in the depths
See him surface in every shadow
On the wind I feel his breath
Golden eye I found his weakness
Golden eye he’ll do what I please
Golden eye no time for sweetness
But a bitter kiss will bring him to his knees

[Chorus 1]
You’ll never know
How I watched you from the shadows as a child
You’ll never know
How it feels to be the one who’s left behind
You’ll never know the days, the nights
The tears, the tears I’ve cried
But now my time has come
And time, time is not on your side

[Verse 2]
See him move through smoke and mirrors
Feel his presence in the crowd
Other girls, they gather around him
If I had him I wouldn’t let him out
Golden eye not lace or leather
Golden chain take him to the spot
Golden eye I’ll show him forever
It’ll take forever to see
What I’ve got

[Chorus 2]
You’ll never know
How I watched you from the shadows as a child
You’ll never know
How it feels to get so close
And be denied
It’s a gold and honey trap
I’ve got for you tonight
Revenge, it’s a kiss, this time I won’t miss
Now I’ve got you in my sight
With a Golden eye

[Outro]
Golden, golden eye
With a golden eye
Golden eye, golden eye
Golden eye, golden eye

Garbage – ”The world is not enough”

I know how to hurt
I know how to heal
I know what to show
And what to conceal
I know when to talk
And I know when to touch
No one ever died
From wanting too much
The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you’re strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love
People like us
Know how to survive
There’s no point in living
If you can’t feel alive
We know when to kiss
And we know when to kill
If we can’t have it all
Then nobody will
The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you’re strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love
I feel safe
I feel scared
I feel ready
And yet unprepared
The world is not enough
But it is such a perfect place to start, my love
And if you’re strong enough
Together we can take the world apart, my love
The world is not enough
The world is not enough
Nowhere near enough
The world is not enough

Always you need me, lover
Always release me, lover
I want to give you the lowdown
I want to give you the face to face
Always is all I can give
Isn’t quite what you take me for
I will act in a certain way
I control what I can
That’s the man I am
Well, it pains me to say
And I do what I can
That’s the man I am
Always, always, always
Always release me, lover
I want to give you the face to face(always)
I want to miss some more
I’ll relax in a certain way
I control what I can
That’s the man I am
(Clearing out of the shade)
Well, it pains me to say
And I do what I can
(Coming out of the rain)
That’s the man I am
(Clearing out of the shade)
That’s the man I am
Coming out of the rain
Clearing out of the shade
All that you’ve known
Be as it may
All that you’ve shown
Reach in and try all day
(Coming out of the rain)
I wanna try all day
(Clearing out of the shade)
All that I’ve known is you’ll be okay
Follow your soul and it tells you to fly away
(Coming out of the rain)
I wanna fly all day
(Clearing out of the shade)
All that you’ve known
Be as it may
All that you’ve shone
Reach in and shine all day
(Coming out of the rain)
I wanna shine all day
(Clearing out of the shade)

”The Silence”
Melodie de: Manchester Orchestra

Why do I deserve the science
To feel better about you?
At a loss I lost my cool
I denied that I found you
I tried to be a basket case
I did not surprise you
I’m trying to find a signal fire
Let me know when I should move
But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don’t need me
Why do I desire the space?
I was mourning after you
I was lost and lost my shape
There was nothing I could do
I don’t want to waste away
It was all I gave to you
Take me back and take my place
I will rise right up for you
But you, amplified in the silence
Justified in the way you make me bruise
Magnified in the science
Anatomically proved that you don’t need me
All the while you waste away, you’re asking
„Did I really need another one to take me down?”
Everybody knows it’s something that you had to live with darling
Nobody’s gonna tear you down now
There is nothing you keep, there is only your reflection
There was nothing but quiet retractions
And families pleading, „Don’t look in that cabinet
There’s far more bad than there’s good, I don’t know how it got there”
That was something your father had burned in me
20 hours out of Homestake eternity
You can go anywhere but you are where you came from
Little girl, you are cursed by my ancestry
There is nothing but darkness and agony
I can not only see, but you stopped me from blinking
Let me watch you as close as a memory
Let me hold you above all the misery
Let me open my eyes and be glad that I got here

”Vienna”
Melodie de: Ultravox

We walked in the cold air
Freezing breath on a window pane, lying and waiting
A man in the dark in a picture frame so mystic and soulful
A voice reaching out in a piercing cry, it stays with you until
The feeling has gone, only you and I, it means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
The music is weaving
Haunting notes, pizzicato strings, the rhythm is calling
Alone in the night as the daylight brings a cool empty silence
The warmth of your hand and a cold grey sky, it fades to the distance
The image has gone, only you and I, it means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna
This means nothing to me
This means nothing to me
Oh, Vienna

”Peste bucurești”
Melodie de: Christian Eberhard feat Loredana

Când te-am cunoscut, Cristina
Aveai părul frumos rău
Şi-o floare de măr
Îţi şedea bine-n păr

Când se lasă seara peste Bucureşti
Eu mă uit la fete, dar văd că nu eşti
Când se lasă seara peste Bucureşti
Eu mă uit la tine, dar văd că nu eşti

Când ne-am despărţit, Cristina
Aveai părul frumos rău
Dar floarea de măr
Îţi căzuse din păr

Când se lasă seara peste Bucureşti
Eu mă uit la fete, dar văd că nu eşti
Când se lasă seara peste Bucureşti
Eu mă uit la tine, dar văd că nu eşti

Dar văd că nu eşti
Dar văd că nu eşti

”Take My Breath Away”
Melodie de: Berlin

Watching every motion in my foolish lover’s game
On this endless ocean, finally lovers know no shame
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn around and say
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching, I keep waiting, still anticipating love
Never hesitating to become the fated ones
Turning and returning to some secret place to hide
Watching in slow motion as you turn to me and say
My love
Take my breath away
Through the hourglass, I saw you
Each time you slipped away
When the mirror crashed, I called you
And turned to hear you say
If only for today, I am unafraid
Take my breath away
Take my breath away
Watching every motion in this foolish lover’s game
Haunted by the notion somewhere there’s a love in flames
Turning and returning to some secret place inside
Watching in slow motion as you turn my way and say
Take my breath away
My love, take my breath away
My love, take my breath away
My love, take my breath away

”Paris”
Melodie de: Friendly Fires

One day we’re gonna live in Paris
I promise
I’m on it
When I’m bringing in the money
I promise
I’m on it
I’m gonna take you out to club showcase
We’re gonna live it up
I promise
Just hold on a little more
And every night we’ll watch the stars
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us
And every night, the city lights
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us
One day we’re gonna live in Paris
I promise
I’m on it
I’ll find you that French boy,
You’ll find me that French girl
I promise
I’m on it
So go and pack your bags
For the long haul
We’re gonna lose ourselves
I promise
This time it’s you and me for evermore
And every night we’ll watch the stars
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us
And every night, the city lights
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us
And every night we’ll watch the stars
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us
And every night, the city lights
They’ll be out for us
They’ll be out for us

”America” (versuri/lyrics)
Melodie de: London Grammar

And I hope that you find it, all that you need
I hope that you stay young and wild and free
You’ll have America
And I hope that you’re better than all of your friends
I hope that they hold you until the end
You can have America, hmm
But all of our time chasing America
But she never had a home for me
All of our time chasing a dream, hmm, hmm, hmm
A dream that meant nothing to me
And see where I found you where they all lay
All of the greats, they are here to stay
Here in America
And I hope that you find it, all that you are
I hope that it sets you apart
In the heart of America, hmm, hmm
But all of our time chasing America
But she never had a home for me, hmm, hmm, hmm
All of our time chasing a dream, hmm, hmm, hmm
A dream that meant nothing to me
And all the parties, they fade
And yes, my looks, they’ll go away
I’ll just be left here in America
But she never had a home for me

De mi Cuba soberana
Recuerdo aquel murmurillo
Del río junto al bohío
Que era una estampa cubana

[Coro]

La libertad fue un trofeo
Que nos conquistó el mambí
Con el verbo de Martí
Y el machete de Maceo

[Coro]
Guantanamera
Guajira, guantanamera
Guantanamera
Guajira, guantanamera

[Verso 3]
Yo soy un hombre sincero, dijo Martí
De donde crece la palma
Y antes de morirme quiero
Cantar mis versos del alma

[Coro]

Cultivó una rosa blanca
En junio como en enero
Para el amigo sincero
Que me da su mano franca

”Whatever Will Be, Will Be (Que sera, sera)”
Melodie de: Sly And The Family Stone

When I was just a little girl
I asked my mother, „What will I be?
Will I be pretty?
Will I be rich?”
Here’s what she said to me
„Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be”
When I grew up and fell in love
I asked my sweetheart, „What lies ahead?
Will we have rainbows
Day after day?”
Here’s what my sweetheart said
„Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be”
Now I have children of my own
They ask their mother, „What will I be?
Will I be handsome?
Will I be rich?”
I tell them tenderly
„Que será, será
Whatever will be, will be
The future’s not ours to see
Que será, será
What will be, will be”
Que será, será
