"His Brother Harold was killed in a knife fight the day after JFK was shot. He wrote this song to remind him and others of brighter days ahead. "

Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere, Sunny one so true, I love you.
Sunny, thank you for the sunshine bouquet.
Sunny, thank you for the love you brought my way.
You gave to me your all and all, now I feel ten feet tall.
Sunny one so true, I love you.
Sunny, thank you for the truth you let me see.
Sunny, thank you for the facts from A to Z.
My life was torn like a windblown sand
And the rock was formed when you held my hand.
Sunny one so true, I love you.
Sunny

Sunny, thank you for the smile upon your face.
Sunny, thank you for the gleam that shows its grace.
You're my spark of nature's fire, you're my sweet complete desire.
Sunny one so true, I love you.
Sunny, yesterday my life was filled with rain.
Sunny, you smiled at me and really eased the pain.
The dark days are gone, and the bright days are here
My sunny one shines so sincere.
Sunny one so true, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you.
I love you, I love you, I love you.
 
Most famous Albanian singer over the decades, died recently.


I'm drunk, my legs don't support me
A love is tormenting me

Now for every night
drink brandy and wine
Everyone poisoned by it
but it is comforting me
You can save me
please help me
Cause it poisoned my life
this sharap sharap
I see you in every glass
you embraced with her
How could you not have a little mercy?
To leave me in a better time
When I gave you my all
From where this infidelity?
The kisses you cursed me

My legs don't hold me, no matter how hard I drink
I'm afraid I'm dying without love

Now for every night
I drink brandy and wine
Everyone poisoned by it
but it is comforting me

You can save me
please help me
Cause it poisoned my life
this sharap sharap
I see you in every glass
you embraced with her
How could you not have a little mercy?
To leave me in a better time
When I gave you my all
From where this infidelity?
The kisses you cursed me

I'm drunk, my legs don't support me
A love is tormenting me

God what a voice he has!


This is one of my favorite songs, and this version is from when his voice was at its best...Miserere..Wretched me; yet I toast life. Apt for these times. There's also a version out there with Sting. :)

also with English lyrics...I've listened to this dozens of times and it still makes me cry.

Vivo per Lei...I live for her (music)...Giorgia also has an incredibly pure voice. (English subtitles)

Perfect Symphony with Ed Sheeran...Ed, wonderful singer that he is, looks blown away...I love seeing Bocelli with his beautiful sons.

I found a love for meOh darling, just dive right in and follow my leadWell, I found a girl, beautiful and sweetOh, I never knew you were the someone waiting for me'Cause we were just kids when we fell in loveNot knowing what it wasI will not give you up this timeBut darling, just kiss me slow, your heart is all I ownAnd in your eyes, you're holding mineBaby, I'm dancing in the dark with you between my armsBarefoot on the grass, listening to our favourite songWhen you said you looked a messI whispered underneath my breathBut you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight

It wasn't Sting who sang the Miserere, or if he did I can't find it, but Bono did, with Pavarotti, and he sang in Italian.:)

The one and only Dylan... legend of American folk music and Nobel laureate.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you?
People call say 'beware doll, you're bound to fall'
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging your next meal
How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be without a home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone

Ahh you've gone to the finest schools, alright Miss Lonely
But you know you only used to get juiced in it
Nobody's ever taught you how to live out on the street
And now you're gonna have to get used to it
You say you never compromise
With the mystery tramp, but now you realize
He's not selling any alibis
As you stare into the vacuum of his eyes
And say do you want to make a deal?
How does it feel, how does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
A complete unknown, like a rolling stone
Ah you never turned around to see the frowns
On the jugglers and the clowns when they all did tricks for you
You never understood that it ain't no good
You shouldn't let other people get your kicks for you
You used to ride on a chrome horse with your diplomat
Who carried on his shoulder a Siamese cat
Ain't it hard when you discovered that
He really wasn't where it's at
After he took from you everything he could steal
How does it feel, how does it feel?
To have on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
Ahh princess on a steeple and all the pretty people
They're all drinking, thinking that they've got it made
Exchanging all precious gifts
But you better take your diamond ring, you better pawn it babe
You used to be so amused
At Napoleon in rags and the language that he used
Go to him he calls you, you can't refuse
When you ain't got nothing, you got nothing to lose
You're invisible now, you've got no secrets to conceal
How does it feel, ah how does it feel?
To be on your own, with no direction home
Like a complete unknown, like a rolling stone
