Raiz Da Nossa Raça - Nova Cor

(Alamir Rodrigues Filho, Clemar Pereira, Roberto Lopes Da Costa) 1990

O guereiro da senzala
Eu vi cantar criola
O guereiro da senzala
Eu vi cantar criola

Era festa na aldeia
Era festa na aldeia
Esquecendo a chibata
O negro só cantava
Em noite de lua cheia
O canto ecoava

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

Se pisar nesse chão
Pisa bem forte
Em respeito a herança da nossa raça
é herança do povo africano 
Bem distante da terra de Luanda

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

Esse canto era um canto tão forte
Divindade da luz interior
O universo era possuida fé
Que aboliu e partiu as correntes

Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh
Oh oh oh oh
Ohhh oh oh oh, oh oh

Everybody get up dance on the beat
Doctor stops way up and down the street
Everybody come on, jam with the beat
Let the rhythm move come to your feet

Party till you feel your spirit rise
Close your eyes if you are very shy
Let blow up yourself

Move slow slick delight on your feet

You Can Lead Me - Firefly

(Maurizio Cavalieri) 1982

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom

We found each other, you understand, 
Down in Central Park
Oh I was felling good
You know it wasn't for your style
Neither for your way
There was only you

You've walked into my life
Like a stormy day breaks through summertime
You've changed up my mind
You′ve brought me trhough all times
Baby you took me high

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom


You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!


You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You make me feel so good
You make me feel so gooood!

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom

Are you busy or have some time
Right now on my mind
Just because of you
You know I really love your place
Your happy world
Baby, I do love you

I won't discuss your past
Life goes on too fast
And we just have no time

Oh God, somebody in this world
really can realize your love has got me high

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom 

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand
Now's the time to share your love wisdom 

You can lead, lead me by the hand
Don't you know your love has got me high?
You can lead, lead me by the hand

De Frente - Tania Maria

(Anselmo Mazzoni; Lauro Benevides) 1971

De frente a praia
De frente a vida
De sorriso aberto, a  procurar
No mesmo passo nessa avenida
Onde o amor estiver
Sei que vou buscar, ah ah ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhhh

Arandeia ah ah ah ah
Arandeia ah ah ahhh

Na estrela branca eu vou brilhar
Onde o amor estiver, eu quero estar
E virando o mundo a cantar
Eu vou pela praia correndo a vida
Beijando a areia e cair no mar

É na primavera (É na primavera )
Que eu vou te encontrar
É na primavera (É na primavera )
Que eu vou te encontrar

De frente a praia
De frente a vida
De sorriso aberto, a  procurar
No mesmo passo nessa avenida
Onde o amor estiver
Sei que vou buscar, ah ah ahhh ahhh ahhh ahhhh

Arandeia ah ah ah ah
Arandeia ah ah ah ahhh

Na estrela branca eu vou brilhar
Onde o amor estiver, eu quero estar
E virando o mundo a cantar
Eu vou pela praia correndo a vida
Beijando a areia e cair no mar

É na primavera (É na primavera )
Que eu vou te encontrar
É na primavera (É na primavera )
Que eu vou te encontrar
É na primavera (É na primavera )
Que eu vou te encontrar

Estrela Brilhante - Ton Saga

(Durval Ferreira; Ton Saga) 1983

Trago no peito, estrela brilhante
Que ilumina os meus caminhos
Estrela guia, guia, guia 
Me leve além desse horizonte
(Me leve além desse horizonte)

Carrego a fé na palma da mão
O meu olhar corta que nem foice
O meu grito é como espinho
Espinho cheiroso de mandacaru
(Espinho cheiroso de mandacaru)

Sou boiadeiro, sou catingueiro
Sou do nordeste, sou do nordeste
(Sou boiadeiro, sou catingueiro)
Sou eu

Meu pranto molha a terra agreste
Sinto saudade do meu bem querer
Moça bonita estrela guia
És a razão deste meu viver
(És a razão deste meu viver)

Sou boiadeiro, sou catingueiro
Sou do nordeste, sou do nordeste
(Sou boiadeiro, sou catingueiro)
Sou eu

Minha pele é dura que nem couro
Meus olhos da cor do araçá
Meu corpo é queimado do sol da terra seca

Minha pele é dura que nem couro
Meus olhos da cor do araçá
Meu corpo é queimado do sol da terra seca

Sou boiadeiro, sou catingueiro

We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic
We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic

Bernad's along and hit with that funky bass, still tries the groove
Niles making history producing hits that make your body move
Tony is so sorry with that rhythm on the drum
Voices and strings to make that melody hum

We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic
We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic

Took the stage to coast to coast
Traveled all around the world
Designed clothes 
Heaven knows
I-I was such a lucky girl

Do you remember?
The way it used to be
Do you remember?

The way it used to be
Do you remember?

Sharing the love once again


We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic

Perfectly chic

We were so chic, chic, chic
Perfectly chic
We were so chic, chic, chic

Stepping out
I'm feeling so right tonight
I'm feeling ready following the city light

I hear the music and it's getting louder
Deep down I know that everything will be alright

The music is flowing and I feel excited, yeah
Tonight

Feeling high

You really got me better, feeling better
Someone better

Feeling high

You really got me, got me feeling better
Someone better

The moon above smiling on the dancefloor
There's something in the air that makes me loose control

Reflections I am seeing all around me
And it's entering deeper into my soul

Well I can't get enough
Don't ever wanna stop
Just turn the music up
And make me dance forever
Forever, yeah

Feeling high

You really got me better, feeling better
Someone better

Someone better

Feeling high

You really got me better, feeling better

You always give me what I want (What I want)
You always give me what I need (What I need)
I don't ever want our love to end
Cause I want this good thing over and over again

(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want from you
I want from you baby

Too much of anything ain't good for the soul
If you got too much you just might lose control
Every time I get it I just want more
Cause each time I can get it you make it better than before
You always give me what I want (What I want)
You always give me what I need (What I need)
I don't want you to take your love and go
That's why I'm not ashamed to let you know

(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want from you baby
I want from you baby

(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want from you baby
I want from you baby

The more I get, the more I want
The more I get, the more I want
The more I get, the more I want from you baby

Oh baby
Hey baby
Oh baby, yeah
I just can't help myself, no no
Your love is so good
Yes it is

(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want from you baby

(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want
(The more I get) The more I get
(The more I want) The more I want from you baby
Oh baby

Eh eh baby
Oh oh
You gave me a habit I just can't kick
And it's your love I'm so happy with

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)
(I want from you baby)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)

(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want)
(The more I get, the more I want from you)





See You Again - Alex Valentini

(Andrea Marchi; Guido Marchi) 2019

The clouds are black today
The time that runs away
It's a lonely day
Not here with me

The flower without the tree
So far, you're miles away
But I heard you prayin'
Please don't leave me alone

Don't care about the rain
But I can send the rain
The flowers into your soul

The ones who want the same
I ran till I could be
The one and see you again

The time has come you said
And I can tell myself
That's the only way
To get you again
Impossible today
So far, you're miles away
But I heard you prayin'

Please don't leave me alone
Don't care about the rain
But I can send the rain
The flowers into your soul

The ones who want the same
I ran till I could be
The one and see you again






Physical - Primadonna

(Gianna Toti; Giorgio Dolce; Stefania Dal Pino) 1990

So hard to find you
And so to leave you
So sweet to love you more than any time
Your gipsy loving
You make me crazy
So sweet forgetting more than any time

The clouds are heavy
My heart is steady
I need your loving more than any time
A kind of feeling 
I want to play on
I'll make you happy and bright

And I should tell you I love you
You wouldn't know what to do
Instead I say that I want to play that song
Don't stop running tonight

Ah physical, physical
C'mon just let me know
It's physical, physical
And now I feel it
It's really physical,  physical
The whole life I want it
It's physical, physical

If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry

So hard to find you
And so to leave you
So sweet to love you more than any time
Your gipsy loving
You make me crazy
So sweet forgetting more than any time

The clouds are heavy
My heart is steady
I need your loving more than any time
A kind of feeling 
I want to play on
I'll make you happy and bright

I never say that I'd love you
You got to know what to do
And so I say that I want you
Baby please don't stop your loving tonight

Ah physical, physical
C'mon just let me know
It's physical, physical
And now I feel it
It's really physical,  physical
The whole life I want it
It's physical, physical

If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry

Ah physical, physical
C'mon just let me know
It's physical, physical
And now I feel it
It's really physical,  physical
The whole life I want it
It's physical, physical

If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry
If you go on you make me cry






A Day A Day - Art Of Emotion

(Peter Krüger; Roger Hummel) 1986

Holiday

Take a look at the sunshine
Do you remember it years ago
As we lived at the seaside
I can't stand these dreams
Let's go

Let's choose the way we want to live my friend
My feet will feel the sands
We will live in harmony

A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love forever
A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we know we are together
A day, a day 
A  day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love so good
(So good), so good, (so good), so good, (so good, so good)

Take a look at the port night (Hot, hot night)
Burning stars over the sea (Over the sea)
And the beach warm is touching you (Touching you)
Feel your wishes want to be free (And be free)

Let's choose the way we want to live my friend (Live my friend)
My feet will feel the sands (Feel the sands)
We will live in harmony

A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love forever
A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we know we are together
A day, a

Holiday
Holiday
Holiday
Holiday

A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love forever
A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we know we are together

A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love forever
A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we know we are together

A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we live and love forever
A day, a day
A day, a pretty holiday
And we know we are together
