Tracy Chapman: Baby can I hold you tonight?: 1988: Lyrics and Video

“Sorry
Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like sorry like sorry


Forgive me

Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like forgive me forgive me


But you can say baby

Baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time you'd be mine


I love you

Is all that you can't say
Years gone by and still
Words don't come easily
Like I love you I love you


But you can say baby

Baby can I hold you tonight
Maybe if I told you the right words
At the right time you'd be mine
you'd be mine
you'd be mine.”

Tracy Chapman is one of my favourite artists. I like her bluesy style (some with BB King).

Mohammad Rafi and Sushma Shreshta: Kya HuaTera Wada:1977: Lyrics and Video: Movie: Hum Kisise Kum Naheen(We are not lessthan anyone)




I do my Indian community a great discredit in that I don’t understand even one of the many rich languages of this community.

Not pulling a ‘Bollywood,’on you, it’s just that this song has significance for me in a few ways. Most notably it takes to back to when I was a kid, just like a time machine. I also appreciate the meaning and storyline of the movie.
Indian music comprise mostly love songs which are very rich in meaning and speak to the heart...

“Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise?

Wo kasam wo iraadaa)x.2

That oath, that intention? x.2

Bhoolegaa dil jis dintumhe
The day that my heart forgets you

Wo din zindagi ka,aakhree din hogaa
That day will be the last day of my life


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise?

Wo kasam wo iraadaa

That oath, that intention?


Bhoolegaa dil jis dintumhe
The day that my heart forgets you

Wo din zindagi ka,aakhree din hogaa
That day will be the last day of my life


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise?

Yaad hain mujh ko, tune kahaa thaa
I remember, you had told me

Tum se naheenruthhenge kabhi
I won't ever be mad at you

Dil ki tarah se haathmile hain
Our hands are joined through our hearts

Kaise bhalaachhootenge kabhi
How will they ever separate?

Teri baahon meinbeetee har shaam
Spent every evening in your arms

Bewafaa, ye bhee kyaayaad naheen
Unfaithful! Don't you remember even this?


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise


Wo kasam wo iraadaa

That oath, that intention?


Bhoolegaa dil jis dintumhe
The day that my heart forgets you

Wo din zindagi ka,aakhri din hogaa
That day will be the last day of my life


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise?

Wo kasam wo iraadaa

That oath, that intention?


O’ kahane waale mujhko farebee
Oh, one who calls me a cheat!

Kaun farebee hain yebataa
Tell me who's the betrayer

Wo jis ne gam liyaa,pyaar ke khaatir
The one who accepted sorrow, for the sakeof love?

Yaa jis ne pyaar kobech diyaa
Or the one who sold love

Nashaa daulat kaa ayesaa bhee kyaa
What kind of intoxication is this withwealth

Ke tujhe kuch bhi yaadnaheen
That you don't remember any of this


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise

Wo kasam wo iraadaa

That oath, that intention?



Bhoolegaa dil jis dintumhe
The day that my heart forgets you

Wo din zindagi ka,aakhri din hogaa
That day will be the last day of my life


Kyaa huwa tera vadaa
What happened to your promise?

Wo kasam wo iraadaa

That oath, that intention?”

Judy in disguise,
Well, that's what you are,
Lemonade pie
with a brand new car.
Cantalope eyes come to me tonight
Judy in disguise with glasses.
Keep a-wearin' your bracelets
and your new rara,
Cross your heart
with your living bra.
Chimney sweep sparrow with guise
Judy in disguise with glasses.
Come to me tonight,
come to me tonight,
taking everything in sight,
except for the strings on my kite.
Judy in disguise,
Well, what you aiming for,
A circus of horrors, yeah,
Well that's what you are.
You made me a life of ashes,
I guess I'll just take your glasses

The Beatles: A Day in the Life:1967: Lyrics and Video

“I read the news today oh boy
About a lucky man who made the grave
And though the news was rather sad
Well I just had to laugh
I saw the photograph.
He blew his mind out in a car
He didn't notice that the lights had changed
A crowd of people stood and stared
They'd seen his face before
Nobody was really sure
If he was from the House of Lords.
I saw a film today oh boy
The English Army had just won the war
A crowd of people turned away
but I just had to look
Having read the book.
I'd love to turn you on
Woke up, fell out of bed,
Dragged a comb across my head
Found my way downstairs and drank a cup,
And looking up I noticed I was late.
Found my coat and grabbed my hat
Made the bus in seconds flat
Found my way upstairs and had a smoke,
Somebody spoke and I went into a dream
I read the news today oh boy
Four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire
And though the holes were rather small
They had to count them all
Now they know how many holes it takes to fill the Albert Hall.
I'd love to turn you on”

"With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all "

Memory in itself is the indelible mark...

"There are places I'll remember
All my life, though some have changed
Some forever, not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places had their moments
With lovers and friends, I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life, I've loved them all

But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more

Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life, I'll love you more"

Dam I love 60’s music

I’m not content to be with you in the daytime
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night

I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yea, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night
Oh, come on...

I believe that you and me last forever
Oh yea, all day and nighttime yours, leave me never
The only time I feel alright is by your side
Girl I want to be with you all of the time
All day and all of the night
All day and all of the night time
All day and all of the night

The Beatles: In My LIfe:1965

[tec0]

A song that was far ahead of its time...

Modern Talking "In 100 Years" 1987

Outside the gates of heaven
Oh, there lives a unicorn
I close my eyes to seven
Oh, this world is not my home
A broken heart in danger
And a pillow filled with tears
Oh, can you see the strangers?
In the pain and in the fears
Can you feel my heart?
Baby don't give up
Can you feel the love tonight?

In 100 years
Love is illegal
In 100 years from now
In 100 years
Love is illegal in this lonely, heartbreak town
In 100 years
Love is illegal
All your dreams will die
In 100 years
Love is illegal
And your hope will not survive

L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating
L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating

You're looking through a fire
Computers everywhere
Oh, you're a shotgun rider
Controllers here and there
And you read old loveletters
Drawning in the sea
Oh baby it doesn't matter
Oh you've lost all what you feel
Can you feel my heart?
Baby don't give up
Can you feel the love tonight?

In 100 years
Love is illegal
In 100 years from now
In 100 years
Love is illegal in this lonely, heartbreak town
In 100 years
Love is illegal
All your dreams will die
In 100 years
Love is illegal
And your hope will not survive

L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating
L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating
L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating
L.O.V.E.
Love is illegal in my heart
Hear my heart is beating

BonJovi: Wanted Dead or Alive:1986:Lyrics and Video

“It’s all the same, only the names will change
Everyday it seems we’re wasting away
Another place where the faces are so cold
I’d drive all night just to get back home

I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I’m wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

Sometimes I sleep, sometimes it’s not for days
And the people I meet always go their separate ways
Sometimes you tell the day
By the bottle that you drink
And times when you’re alone all you do is think

I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I’m wanted dead or alive
Wanted dead or alive

I walk these streets, a loaded six string on my back
I play for keeps, ‘cause I might not make it back
I been everywhere, and I’m standing tall
I’ve seen a million faces an I’ve rocked them all

I’m a cowboy, on a steel horse I ride
I’m wanted dead or alive
I’m a cowboy, I got the night on my side
I’m wanted dead or alive
And I ride, dead or alive
I still drive, dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive
Dead or alive”
