01. People Are People

Music & lyrics by Martin Lee Gore
[Originally performed by Depeche Mode]

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

So we're different colours
And we're different creeds
And different people have different needs
It's obvious you hate me
Though I've done nothing wrong
I never even met you
So what could I have done

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

Help me understand
Help me understand

Now you're punching and you're kicking
And you're shouting at me
I'm relying on your common decency
So far it hasn't surfaced
But I'm sure it exists
It just takes a while to travel
From your head to your fist

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully
People are people so why should it be
You and I should get along so awfully

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

I can't understand
What makes a man
Hate another man
Help me understand

I can't understand (People are people so why should it be)
What makes a man (so why should it be)
Hate another man (so why should it be)
Help me understand (so why should it be)

02. Smalltown Boy

Music & lyrics by Steve Bronski, Jimmy Somerville, Larry Steinbachek
[Originally performed by Bronski Beat]

Just to your soul
Just to your soul

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Mother will never understand
Why you had to leave
But the answers you seek
Will never be found at home
The love that you need
Will never be found at home

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away

Pushed around and kicked around
Always a lonely boy
You were the one
That they'd talk about around town
As they put you down

And as hard as they would try
They'd hurt to make you cry
But you never cried to them
Just to your soul
No you never cried to them
Just to your soul

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)

Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry
Cry, boy, cry!!!

[solo]

You leave in the morning
With everything you own
In a little black case
Alone on a platform
The wind and the rain
On a sad and lonely face

Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away, run away, turn away, run away (cry)
Run away, turn away

04. Don't You (Forget About Me)

Music & lyrics by Keith Forsey, Steve Schiff
[Originally performed by Simple Minds]

Hey, hey, hey ,hey
Ohhh...

Won't you come see about me?
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby

Tell me your troubles and doubts
Giving me everything inside and out and
Love's strange so real in the dark
Think of the tender things that we were working on

Slow change may pull us apart
When the light gets into your heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

Will you stand above me?
Look my way, never love me
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down

Will you recognise me?
Call my name or walk on by
Rain keeps falling, rain keeps falling
Down, down, down, down

Hey, hey, hey, hey
Ohhhh.....

Don't you try to pretend
It's my feeling we'll win in the end
I won't harm you or touch your defenses
Vanity and security

Don't you forget about me
I'll be alone, dancing you know it baby
Going to take you apart
I'll put us back together at heart, baby

Don't You Forget About Me
Don't Don't Don't Don't
Don't You Forget About Me

As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
As you walk on by
Will you call my name?
When you walk away

Or will you walk away?
Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name
Will you all my name?

I say:
La la la...La la la...La la la...
La la la...La la la...La la la...

Will you walk on by?
Come on - call my name

05. The Sun Always Shines On TV

Music & lyrics by Paul Waaktaar-Savoy
[Originally performed by A-Ha]

Touch me, how can it be
Believe me, the sun always shines on TV
Hold me, close to your heart
Touch me, give all your love to me
To me

I Reached inside myself
And found nothing there
To ease the pressure off
My ever worrying mind

All my powers waste away
I fear the crazed and lonely looks
The mirror's sending me these days

Touch me, how can it be
Believe me, the sun always shines on TV
Hold me, close to your heart
Touch me, give all your love to me

Please don't ask me to defend
The shamefull lowlands
Of the way I'm drifting
Gloomily through time
I reached inside myself today
Thinking there's got to be some way
To keep the troubles distant

Touch me, how can it be
Believe me, the sun always shines on TV
Hold me, close to your heart
Touch me, give all your love to me

Hold me, close to your heart
Touch me, give all your love to me
To me.....

07. Fade To Grey

Music & lyrics by Billy Currie, Chris Payne, Midge Ure
[Originally performed by Visage]

Devenir a gris
Devenir a gris

One man on a lonely platform
One case sitting by his side
Two eyes staring cold and silent
Shows fear as he turns to hide

Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)

Un homme dans une gare desolee
Une valise a ses cotes
Deux yeux fixes et froids
Montrent de la peur lorsqu'il
Se tourne pour se cacher

Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)

Sent la pluie comme un ete anglais
Comme les notes d'une chanson lontaine
Sortant de derriere d'un poster
Esperant que la vie ne fut si longue

Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)

Feel the rain like an English summer
Hear the notes from a distant song
Stepping out from a backdrop poster
Wishing life wouldn't be so dull

Devenir a gris

Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)

Devenir a gris

Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)
Ah, ah, we fade to grey (fade to grey)

Keine Heimat,
wer schützt mich vor Amerika?

10. Here Comes The Rain Again

Music & lyrics by Annie Lennox, Dave Stewart
[Originally performed by Eurythmics]

Here comes the rain again
Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

{Refrain}
So baby talk to me
Like lovers do
Walk with me
Like lovers do
Talk to me
Like lovers do

Here comes the rain again
Raining in my head like a tragedy
Tearing me apart like a new emotion
Oooooh
I want to breathe in the open wind
I want to kiss like lovers do
I want to dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

{Refrain}

So baby talk to me
Like lovers do

Here comes the rain again
Falling on my head like a memory
Falling on my head like a new emotion
(Here is comes again, here it comes again)
I want to walk in the open wind
I want to talk like lovers do
I want dive into your ocean
Is it raining with you

11. Forever Young

Music by Marian Gold, Bernhard Lloyd, Frank Mertens
Lyrics by Marian Gold
[Originally performed by Alphaville]

Let's dance in style, lets dance for a while
Heaven can wait we're only watching the skies
Hoping for the best but expecting the worst
Are you going to drop the bomb or not?

Let us die young or let us live forever
We don't have the power but we never say never
Sitting in a sandpit, life is a short trip
The music's for the sad men

Can you imagine when this race is won
Turn our golden faces into the sun
Praising our leaders we're getting in tune
The music's played by the madmen

Forever young, i want to be forever young
Do you really want to live forever, forever and ever

Ssome are like water, some are like the heat
Some are a melody and some are the beat
sooner or later they all will be gone
why don't they stay young

It's so hard to get old without a cause
I don't want to perish like a fading horse
Youth is like diamonds in the sun
And dimonds are forever

So many adventures couldn't happen today
So many songs we forgot to play
So many dreams are swinging out of the blue
We let them come true

12. Feels Like Heaven

Music & lyrics by Eddie Jordan, Kevin Patterson
[Originally performed by Fiction Factory]

Heaven is closer now today
The sound is in my ears
I can't believe the things you say
They echo what I fear
Twisting the bones until they snap
I scream but no one knows
You say I'm familiar cold to touch
And then you turn and go

Feels like heaven...
Feels like heaven...

See how we planned for saddened eyes
And tears to pave the way
I fought the fever as I knew
My hair returned to grey
Study your face and fade the frame
Too close for comfort now
We can recall the armony
That lingered but turned soon

Feels like heaven...
Feels like heaven...

You wanted all I had to give
See me, I feel, see me, I live, woh-oh

Feels like heaven (heaven is closer, heaven is closer)
Feels like heaven (heaven is closer, heaven is closer)
Feels like heaven (heaven is closer, heaven is closer)
Feels like heaven (heaven is closer, heaven is closer)
