5 cose che... #34 - 5 canzoni preferite tratte da musical

Buongiorno e bentornati con la rubrica 5 cose che,  Rubrica a cadenza settimanale ideata dal blog Twins Books Lovers con protagonisti i libri (ma non solo...)

Si ricomincia! So bene che questo non è il primo, ma il secondo tema della rubrica, ma la settimana scorsa ho saltato e salterò anche buona parte degli altri temi, visto che farò solo questo e un altro.. ma veniamo a noi e parliamo di.. 5 canzoni preferite tratte da musical!

1) Sixteen Going On Seventeen

[Rolf:]

You wait, little girl, on an empty stage

For fate to turn the light on

Your life, little girl, is an empty page

That men would want to write on

[Liesl:]

To write on

[Rolf:]

You are sixteen going on seventeen

Baby, it's time to think

Better beware, be canny and careful

Baby, you're on the brink

You are sixteen going on seventeen

Fellows will fall in line

Eager young lads and roues and cads

Will offer you food and wine

Totally unprepared are you

To face the world of men

Timid and shy and scared are you

Of things beyond your ken

You need someone older and wiser

Telling you what to do

I am seventeen going on eighteen

I'll take care of you

[Liesl:]

I am sixteen going on seventeen

I know that I'm naive

Fellows I meet may tell me I'm sweet

And willingly I believe

I am sixteen going on seventeen

Innocent as a rose

Bachelor dandies, drinkers of brandies

What do I know of those

Totally unprepared am I

To face the world of men

Timid and shy and scared am I

Of things beyond my ken

I need someone older and wiser

Telling me what to do

You are seventeen going on eighteen

I'll depend on you

2) So long Farewell

[Children:] 

There's a sad sort of clanging from the clock in the hall 

And the bells in the steeple too 

And up in the nursery an absurd little bird 

Is popping out to say "cuckoo" 

[Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:] 

Cuckoo, cuckoo 

[Children: Marta, Gretl, Brigitta: ] 

Regretfully they tell us Cuckoo, cuckoo 

But firmly they compel us Cuckoo, cuckoo 

To say goodbye . . . 

[Marta, Gretl, Brigitta:] 

Cuckoo! 

[Children:] 

. . . to you 

[Children:] 

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, good night 

[Marta:] 

I hate to go and leave this pretty sight 

[Children:] 

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, adieu 

[Friedrich:] 

Adieu, adieu, to yieu and yieu and yieu 

[Children:] 

So long, farewell, au revoir, auf wiedersehen 

[Liesl:] 

I'd like to stay and taste my first champagne 

[Children:] 

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye 

[Kurt:] 

I leave and heave a sigh and say goodbye -- Goodbye! 

[Brigitta:] 

I'm glad to go, I cannot tell a lie 

[Louisa:] 

I flit, I float, I fleetly flee, I fly 

[Gretl:] 

The sun has gone to bed and so must I 

[Children:] 

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye 

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye 

[Guests:] 

Goodbye!

3) Summer Nigths

Summer loving had me a blast

Summer loving happened so fast

I met a girl crazy for me

Met a boy cute as can be

Summer days drifting away to oh oh the summer nights 

tell me more, tell me more

Did you get very far

Tell me more, tell me more

Like does he have a car

She swam by me she got a cramp

He ran by me got my suit damp

I saved her life she nearly drowned

He showed off splashing around

Summer sun somethings begun but oh oh the summer nights

Tell me more, tell me more

Was it love at first sight?

Tell me more, tell me more

Did she put up a fight?

Took her bowling in the arcade

We went strolling drank lemonade

We made out under the dock

We stayed out till 10 o'clock

Summer fling don't mean a thing but oh oh the summer nights.

Tell me more, tell me more

But you don't gotta brag

Tell me more, tell me more

Cause he sounds like a drag

He got friendly holding my hand

She got friendly down in the sand

He was sweet just turned eighteen

Well she was good you know what I mean

Summer heat boy and girl meet but oh oh the summer nights.

Tell me more, tell me more

How much dough did he spend?

Tell me more, tell me more

Could she get me a friend?

It turned colder that's where it ends

So I told her we'd still be friends

Then we made our true love vow

Wonder what she's doing now

4) I Have A Dream

I have a dream, a song to sing 

To help me cope with anything 

If you see the wonder of a fairy tale 

You can take the future, even if you fail 

I believe in angels 

Something good in everything I see 

I believe in angels 

When I know the time is right for me 

I'll cross the stream, I have a dream 

I have a dream, a fantasy 

To help me through reality 

And my destination makes it worth the while 

Pushing through the darkness, still another mile 

I believe in angels 

Something good in everything I see 

I believe in angels 

When I know the time is right for me 

I'll cross the stream, I have a dream 

I'll cross the stream, I have a dream 

I have a dream, a song to sing 

To help me cope, with anything 

If you see the wonder of a fairytale 

You can take the future even if you fail 

I believe in angels 

Something good in everything I see 

I believe in angels 

When I know the time is right for me 

I'll cross the stream, I have a dream 

I'll cross the stream, I have a dream

5) What Dreams I Made Of

Hey now 

Hey now 

Hey now 

Hey now 

Have you ever seen such a beautiful night? 

I could almost kiss the stars for shining so bright 

When I see you smiling, I go 

Oh oh oh 

I would never want to miss this 

'cause in my heart I know what this is 

Hey now 

Hey now 

This is what dreams are made of 

Hey now 

Hey now 

This is what dreams are made of 

I've got somewhere I belong 

I've got somebody to love 

This is what dreams are made of 

(Hey now) 

(Hey now) 

Have you ever wondered what life is about? 

You could search the world and never figure it out 

You don't have to sail the oceans 

No no no 

Happiness is no mystery it's 

Here now it's you and me 

Hey now 

Hey now 

This is what dreams are made of 

Hey now 

Hey now 

This is what dreams are made of 

I've got somewhere I belong 

I've got somebody to love 

This is what dreams are made of 

Open your eyes 

(This is what dreams are made of) 

shout to the sky 

(This is what dreams are made of) 

Then I see u smiling, I go 

Oh oh oh 

Yesterday my life was duller 

Now everything's Technicolor 

(Hey now) 

(Hey now) 

Hey now 

This is what dreams 

This is what dreams are made of 

Hey now 

Hey now 

This is what dreams are made of 

I've got somewhere I belong 

I've got somebody to love 

This is what dreams are made of 

(Hey now) 

(Hey now) 

Hey now 

This is what dreams 

This is what dreams are made of

Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's

The little old bird woman comes

In her own special way to the people she calls

Come, buy my bags full of crumbs

Come feed the little birds, show them you care

And you'll be glad if you do

Their young ones are hungry

Their nests are so bare

All it takes is tuppence from you

Feed the birds, tuppence a bag,

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

"Feed the birds, " that's what she cries

While overhead, her birds fill the skies

All around the cathedral the saints and apostles

Look down as she sells her wares.

Although you can't see it, you know they are smiling

Each time someone shows that he cares

Though her words are simple and few

Listen, listen, she's calling to you

"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag

Though her words are simple and few

Listen, listen, she's calling to you

"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag

Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
