Not (Nawt!) Another Benvi Playlist
Awwwwww, say I wonder how this would play in 1963? 1973? 1983? 1993? 2003? Maybe telegrams with the earlier years, I dunno. Did they have internships back when my parents were kids? I know they had Model UN, I knew that from Mad Men and I don't know about Sally Draper's place on the social totem pole in school but she's cool so Model UN wasn't social suicide then again her county was really Republican and her stepdad didn't like real UN.......
Anyway with this tangent, listen to some good songs kids!
"Silhouttes (On the Shade)" The Rays (Herman's Hermits and Cliff Richard and The Ronettes did good covers, this needs to be covered, hey someone contemporary cover this song)
Rushed down to your house with wings
On my feet
Loved you like I never loved
You my sweet
Vowed that you and I would be
Two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days
Two silhouettes on the sha-ade
Silhouettes (silhouettes)
2. "You Really Got A Hold On Me" The Miracles (The Beatles also covered this song)
I don't like you, but I love you
Seems that I'm always thinking of you
Oh, oh, oh
You treat me badly, I love you madly
You've really got a hold on me (You've really got a hold on me)
3. "How Deep Is Your Love" Bee Gees
And you may not think I care for you
When you know down inside that I really do
And it's me you need to show
How deep is your love?
4. "He's Sure the Boy I Love" The Crystals
When he holds me tight
Everything's right
Crazy as it seems
I'm his, whatever he is
And I forget all of my dreams
5. "My Rose" Luca and Emma Castellino (suggested by @fishyyyyy99)
And maybe I didn't make myself clear
Or maybe you pretend, so you wouldn't hurt me (so you wouldn't hurt me)
It's probably better like this
But baby, you're pretty damn hard to forget
6. "Tomorrow is Another Day" Shelby Flint
Tomorrow is another day
How I hope you'll always stay
7. "Back to Heaven" Later.
'Cause if you don't atract my lady right
She's gonna send me back to life
You never know what's good or bad
8. "Unchained Melody" Todd Duncan, the Righteous Brothers, actually been covered several times
Woah, my love, my darling
I've hungered for your touch
A long, lonely time
And time goes by so slowly
And time can do so much
Are you still mine?
I need your love
9. "You've Made Me So Very Happy" Brenda Holloway (famously covered by Blood, Sweat, and Tears)
I love you so much you see
You're even in my dreams
I can hear
Baby, I can hear you calling me
I'm so in love with you
All I ever want to do is
Thank you baby
Thank you baby
10. "It Might As Well Rain Until September" Carole King (then covered by Bobby Vee)
The weather here has been as nice as it can be
Although it doesn't really matter much to me
For all the fun I'll have while you're so far away
It might as well rain until September
11. "Everything Has Changed" Best Coast
I used to crawl
All the way back home
I used to cry myself to sleep
Reading all the names they called me
Used to say that I was lazy
A lazy, crazy baby
Did they think
That maybe I was in on it?
Did they think?
No, of course they didn't
12. "The Way You Love Me" Faith Hill
There's nowhere else I'd rather be
Oooh, to feel the way I, feel with your arms around me
I only wish that you could see, the way you love me
The way you love me
13. "It's Your Love" Tim McGraw and Faith Hill
Oh, it's a beautiful thing
Don't think I can keep it all in (oh oh)
And if you ask me why I've changed
All I gotta do is say your sweet name
It's your love
It just does something to me
It sends a shock right through me
I can't get enough
And if you wonder
About the spell I'm under
Oh it's your love
(Woah oh baby)
(Oh, oh, oh)
14. "By My Side" INXS
In the dark of the night
Those small hours
Uncertain and anxious
I need to call you
Rooms full of strangers
Some call me friend
But I wish you were so close to me
15. "All I Have To Do Is Dream" The Everly Brothers
When I feel blue in the night
And I need you to hold me tight
Whenever I want you, all I have to do is
Dream
16. "Make It With You" Bread
Dreams, they're for those who sleep
Life is for us to keep
And if you're wondering what this all is leading to
I wanna make it with you
I really think that we could make it, girl
17. "Baby, I Need Your Loving" The Four Tops
Some say it's a sign of weakness for a man to beg
Then weak, I'd rather be
If it means having you to keep
'Cause lately I've been losing sleep
18. "Any Time At All" The Beatles
If the sun has faded away, I'll try to make it shine
There is nothing I won't do
When you need a shoulder to cry on, I hope it will be mine
Call me tonight and I'll come to you
19. "Only Love Can Break A Heart" Gene Pitney
Please let me hold you
And love you for always and always
Only love can break a heart
Only love can mend it again
20. "Don't Give Up On Us" David Soul
We're still worth one more try
I know we put a last one by
Just for a rainy evening
When maybe stars are few
Don't give up on us, I know
We can still come through
21. "Where Does My Heart Beat Now" Celine Dion
Then one touch overcomes the silence
Love still survives
Two hearts needing one another
Give me wings to fly
22. "Take Me With U" Prince and the Revolution
Come on and touch the place in me
That's calling out your name
We want each other, oh, so much
Why must we play this game?
23. "This Girl Is A Woman Now" Gary Puckett & The Union Gap
This girl is a woman now
She's learned how to give
This girl is a woman now
She's found out what it's all about
And she's learning, learning to live
This girl tasted love
As tender as the gentle dawn
She cried a single tear
A teardrop that was sweet and warm
Our hearts told us we were right
And on that sweet and velvet night
A child had died
A woman had been born
24. "Eres Tu" Carla Morrison
Quiero contemplarte sin contar el tiempo
Dibujarte con mis puros recuerdos
En mi mente marcar tus labios, tus besos
Estás aquí dentro de mi mente
I want to contemplate you without counting the time that goes by
To draw you with memories alone
To mark your lips and your kisses in my mind
To be here for another moment
25. "Help Is On The Way" Little River Band
Are you always in confusion
Surrounded by illusion
Sort it out
You'll make out
Seem to make a good beginning
Someone else ends up winning
Don't seem fair
Don't you care
26. "Right Time of the Night" Jennifer Warnes
It's the right time of the night
The stars are winking above
It's the right time of the night
For making love
27. "Human" The Human League
The tears I cry aren't tears of pain
They're all to hide my guilt and shame
I forgive you, now I ask the same of you
While we were apart, I was human too
28. "I've Got You Under My Skin" Frank Sinatra (also covered by Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons)
I'd tried so, not to give in
I said to myself this affair never will go so well
But why should I try to resist when baby I know so well
I've got you under my skin
29. "Just Fall In Love Again" Anne Murray
Magic, it must be magic
The way I hold you when the night just seems to fly
Easy for you to take me to a star
Heaven is that moment when I look into your eyes.
30. "You Needed Me" Anne Murray
You held my hand when it was cold
When I was lost, you took me home
You gave me hope when I was at the end
And turned my lies back into truth again
You even called me "friend"
You gave me strength to stand alone again
To face the world out on my own again
You put me high upon a pedestal
So high that I could almost see eternity
You needed me, you needed me
31. "I Wanna Be Your Boyfriend" The Rubinoos
Picture in my mind, I see you and me
I, I'm telling you what I wanna be
You, you're saying you're in love with me
And oh, it feels so good in a dream
That I know in life it's just got to be
I wanna tell you......
32. "Getcha Back" Beach Boys
I'm getting tired, layin' around here at night
Thinking 'bout some other guy holdin' you tight
He may have money and a brand new car
May even treat you like a movie star
And no matter what he ever do for you
He can never love you like I can do
So if I leave her and you leave him
Can we ever get back again?
33. "Tear In My Heart" Twenty One Pilots
My heart is my armor
She's the tear in my heart, she's a carver
She's a butcher with a smile, cut me farther
Than I've ever been
34. "Need You Now" Lady A
It's a quarter after one, I'm all alone and I need you now
And I said I wouldn't call, but I'm a little drunk and I need you now
And I don't know how I can do without
I just need you now
35. "Somebody to Love" Queen
(He works hard) everyday (Everyday)
I try and I try and I try
But everybody wants to put me down
They say I'm going crazy
They say I got a lot of water in my brain
I got no common sense
(He's got) I got nobody left to believe
No, no, no, no
(Ooh, ooh, ooh, Lord)
Ooh, somebody
Ooh (Somebody)
Anybody find me
Somebody to love
Can anybody find me
Someone to love?
36. "They Don't Know" Tracey Ullman
There's no need for living in the past
Now I've found good loving, gonna make it last
I tell the others "don't bother me"
Cause when they look at you
They don't see what I see
No, I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open and I see the signs
Cause they don't know 'bout us
And they've never heard of love
37. "Linger" The Cranberries
And I'm in so deep
You know I'm such a fool for you
You got me wrapped around your finger
Do you have to let it linger?
38. "Alone" Heart
You don't know how long I have wanted
To touch your lips and hold you tight
You don't know how long I have waited
And I was going to tell you tonight
39. "Wherever You Will Go" The Calling
If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Well then I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you
40. "Never Tear Us Apart" INXS
We could live
For a thousand years
But if I hurt you
I'd make wine from your tears
I told you
That we could fly
'Cause we all have wings
But some of us don't know why
I was standing
You were there
Two worlds collided
And they could never ever tear us apart
41. "Tear In My Heart" Twenty-One Pilots
Songs on the radio are okay
My taste in music is your face
But it takes a song to come around
To show you how
She's the tear in my heart
I'm alive
She's the tear in my heart
I'm on fire
She's the tear in my heart
Take me higher
Than I've ever been
