Why do birds suddenly appear
Everytime you are near?
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you…

Why do stars fall off from the sky
Everytime you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be,
Close to you…

On the day that you were born
The angels got together
They decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled moon dust in your hair
And put a starlight in your eyes so blue

That is why all the girls in town
Follow you, all around
Just like me, they long to be
Close to you…

Just like me, they long to be
Close to you….

Just like me, they long to be
Close to you….

Aah…
Close to you….

I would like to state my vision,
Life was so unfair.
We live in our secure surroundings,
And people die out there.

Bosnia was so unkind.
Sarajevo changed my mind.
And we all call out in despair.
All the love we need isn’t there.
And we all sing songs in our room.
Sarajevo erects another doom.

Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Sarajevo.
Bosnia was so unkind.
Sarajevo, Sarajevo, Saraje-
Bosnia was so unkind.

Sure things would change if we really wanted them to.
No fear for children anymore.
There are babies in their beds,
Terror in their heads,
Love for the love of life.

When do the saints go marching in? [X4]
Walk on tip toe…

I know there’s something in the wake of your smile.
I get a notion from the look in your eyes, yea.
You’ve built a love but that love falls apart.
Your little piece of heaven turns too dark.

Listen to your heart
when he’s calling for you.
Listen to your heart
there’s nothing else you can do.
I don’t know where you’re going
and I don’t know why,
but listen to your heart
before you tell him goodbye.

Sometimes you wonder if this fight is worthwhile.
The precious moments are all lost in the tide, yea.
They’re swept away and nothing is what is seems,
the feeling of belonging to your dreams.

And there are voices
that want to be heard.
So much to mention
but you can’t find the words.
The scent of magic,
the beauty that’s been
when love was wilder than the wind.

CUJ OVO ZNANOST I GLAZBA

Dr. Tomas Chamorro-Premuzic s londonskog Goldsmith Collegea otkrio je formulu koja u obzir uzima tonalitet, slikovitost i pozitivnost riječi kako bi se došlo do izračuna najpozitivnije pjesme.

Formula glasi: P + Pos + T + BPM + IS, gdje su P - visina, Pos - postotak pozitivnih riječi, T - tonalitet, BPM - ritam, I - slike i sjećanja povezana s glazbom, S - razina serotonina (hormona koji potiče emocije, a nedostatak izaziva depresiju).

Uz nagalasak da je varijabla ‘I’ ipak jako subjektivna, došlo se do pjesme “Wake Up Boo” britanske pop skupine Boo Radleys kao pjesme koja najbolje potiče dobre osjećaje.

Najpozitivnije pjesme su:
1. Boo Radleys - Wake Up Boo!
2. The Beach Boys - Good Vibrations
3. Jackson 5 - I Want You Back
4. The Beatles - Here Comes The Sun
5. Madonna - Holiday
6. Van Morrison - Brown Eyed Girl
7. The Foundations - Build Me Up Buttercup
8. Michael Jackson - Wanna Be Starting Something
9. John Paul Young - Love Is In The Air
10. The Darkness - I Believe In A Thing Called Love

BOO RADLEYS - WAKE UP BOO!

Summer’s gone, days spent with the grass and sun
I don’t mind, to pretend I do seems really dumb
I rise as the morning comes
Crawling through the blinds
I shouldn’t be up at this time
But I can’t sleep with you there by my side

Wake up it’s a beautiful morning
Feel the sun shining for your eyes
Wake up it’s so beautiful
For what could be the very last time

Twenty-five I don’t recall a time I felt this alive
So WAKE UP BOO!
There’s so many things for us to do
It’s early so take your time
Don’t let me rush you please
I know I was up all night, I can do anything
anything, anything

But you can’t blame me
Not for the death of summer
No you can’t blame me
Not for the death of summer
But you’re gonna say what you wanna say
You have to put the death in everything

JACKSON 5 - I WANT YOU BACK

Uh-huh huh huh huh
Let me tell ya now
Uh-huh

When I had you to myself
I didn’t want you around
Those pretty faces always made you stand out in a crowd
But someone picked you from the bunch
One glance was all it took
Now it’s much too late for me to take a second look

Chorus:
Oh baby give me one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin’ I was blind to let you go

(I want you back)
Yes I do now

Ooh ooh baby
(I want you back)
Ya ya ya ya
(I want you back)
Na na na na

Tryin’ to live without your love
Is one long sleepless night
Let me show you girl
That I know wrong from right
Every street you walk on
I leave tearstains on the ground
Following the girl
I didn’t even want around
Let me tell you now

Chorus:
Oh baby all I want is one more chance
(show you that I love you)
Won’t you please let me
(back in your heart)
Oh darlin’ I was blind to let you go

Gimme back what I lost

Oh baby I need one more chance ha
I tell ya that I love you

THE BEATLES - HERE COMES THE SUN

Here Comes the Sun
Writer, lead vocal: George Harrison

Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it’s all right

Little darling, it’s been a long cold lonely winter
Little darling, it feels like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Little darling, the smiles returning to the faces
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been here
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun
And I say it’s all right

Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…
Sun, sun, sun, here it comes…

Little darling, I feel that ice is slowly melting
Little darling, it seems like years since it’s been clear
Here comes the sun, here comes the sun,
And I say it’s all right
It’s all right

MADONNA - HOLIDAY

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Chorus:

If we took a holiday
Took some time to celebrate
Just one day out of life
It would be, it would be so nice

Everybody spread the word
We’re gonna have a celebration
All across the world
In every nation
It’s time for the good times
Forget about the bad times, oh yeah
One day to come together
To release the pressure
We need a holiday

(chorus)

You can turn this world around
And bring back all of those happy days
Put your troubles down
It’s time to celebrate
Let love shine
And we will find
A way to come together
And make things better
We need a holiday

Holiday Celebrate
Holiday Celebrate

Come together in every nation

VAN MORRISON - BROWN EYED GIRL

Hey where did we go, days when the rains came
Down in the hollow playin’ a new game
Laughin’ and a-runnin’ hey hey, skippin’ and a-jumpin’
In the misty nornin’ fog with our hearts a-thumpin’ and you
My brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl

Whatever happened to Tuesday and so slow
Goin’ down to the Old Man with a transistor radio
Standin’ in the sunlight laughin’, hidin’ behind a rainbow’s wall
Slippin’ and a-slidin’ all along the waterfall with you
My brown-eyed girl
You my brown-eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing

Sha la la la….
Sha la la la
La dee da

So hard to find my way, now that I’m on my own
I saw you just the other day
My, how you have grown,
Cast my memory back there, Lord
Sometimes I’m overcome, thinkin’ about it
Making love in the green grass, behind the stadium with you
My brown-eyed girl
You, my brown-eyed girl
Do you remember when we used to sing

Sha la la la….

JOHN PAUL YOUNG - LOVE IS IN THE AIR

Love is in the air
Everywhere I look around
Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound

And I don’t know if I’m being foolish
Don’t know if I’m being wise
But it’s something that I must believe in
And it’s there when I look in your eyes

Love is in the air
In the whisper of the trees
Love is in the air
In the thunder of the sea

And I don’t know if I’m just dreaming
Don’t know if I feel sane
But it’s something that I must believe in
And it’s there when you call out my name

(Chorus)
Love is in the air
Love is in the air
Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh

Love is in the air
In the rising of the sun
Love is in the air
When the day is nearly done

And I don’t know if you’re an illusion
Don’t know if I see it true
But you’re something that I must believe in
And you’re there when I reach out for you

Love is in the air
Every sight and every sound
And I don’t know if I’m being foolish
Don’t know if I’m being wise

But it’s something that I must believe in
And it’s there when I look in your eyes

 THE DARKNES - I BELIVE IN A THING COLLED LOVE

Can’t explain all the feelings that you’re making me feel
My heart’s in overdrive and you’re behind the steering wheel

Touching you, touching me
Touching you, Ohh your touchin blue

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There’s a chance we could make it now
We’ll be rocking ’til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

I wanna kiss you every minute, every hour, every day
You got me in a spin but everything is A.OK!

Touching you, touching me
Touching you, Ohh your touchin blue
[I belive in a thing colled love lyrics on http://www.metrolyrics.com]

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There’s a chance we could make it now
We’ll be rocking ’til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh! Guitar!

Touching you, touching me
Touching you, Ohh your touchin blue

I believe in a thing called love
Just listen to the rhythm of my heart
There’s a chance we could make it now
We’ll be rocking ’til the sun goes down
I believe in a thing called love
Ooh!

Imala je male grudi
Oci crne, plave
Tuzna usta njezna i meka.

Otisla je posve sama
U suton bijelog otrova
Opijena mirisom ljetnog neba.

Trazila je lice ljubavi
Sto u snovima uvijek se javi
Trazila je cistu obalu
Da na njoj zivi bar jedan dan.

Imala je divlju kosu
Daleku od svakog cvijeca
Njeznu kosu toplu poput neba.

Otisla je posve sama
U suton bijelog otrova
Opijena mirisom ljetnog neba.

U tvom sam gradu u ljetnu noc
A zelim tu i ostati
Kazes, naci cemo lijek
Dopusti da ti pomognem.

Mogu li prespavati
Uz tebe sve te godine
Prve suze s lica tvog
Ne zelim da me probude.

Ne daj mi da vidim
Ovo nije svijet za nas
Ne daj mi da znam
Ovo nije svijet za nas.

Na tvojim toplim usnama
Zelim da se izgubim
Sa licem svojim pokrij me
I ne daj da me pokvare.

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
‘Cause I saw the end before we’d begun
Yes, I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won
So I took what’s mine by eternal right
Took your soul out into the night
It may be over but it won’t stop there
I am here for you if you’d only care
You touched my heart, you touched my soul
You changed my life and all my goals
And love is blind and that I knew when
My heart was blinded by you
I’ve kissed your lips and held your head
Shared your dreams and shared your bed
I know you well, I know your smell
I’ve been addicted to you

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

I am a dreamer but when I wake
You can’t break my spirit - it’s my dreams you take
And as you move on, remember me
Remember us and all we used to be
I’ve seen you cry, I’ve seen you smile
I’ve watched you sleeping for a while
I’d be the father of your child
I’d spend a lifetime with you
I know your fears and you know mine
We’ve had our doubts but now we’re fine
And I love you, I swear that’s true
I cannot live without you

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

And I still hold your hand in mine
In mine when I’m asleep
And I will bare my soul in time
When I’m kneeling at your feet

Goodbye my lover
Goodbye my friend
You have been the one
You have been the one for me

I’m so hollow, baby, I’m so hollow
I’m so, I’m so - I’m so hollow
I’m so hollow, baby, I’m so hollow.
I’m so, I’m so - I’m so hollow.

“Look mummy, there’s an airplane up in the sky”
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue
sky?

Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.

Goodbye, blue sky
Goodbye, blue sky.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye

Look into my eyes - you will see
What you mean to me
Search your heart - search your soul
And when you find me there you’ll search no more
Don’t tell me it’s not worth trying for
You can’t tell me it’s not worth dying for
You know it’s true
Everything I do - I do it for you

Look into my heart - you will find
There’s nothing there to hide
Take me as I am - take my life
I would give it all I would sacrifice
Don’t tell me it’s not worth fighting for
I can’t help it there’s nothing I want more
You know it’s true
Everything I do - I do it for you

There’s no love - like your love
And no other - could give more love
There’s nowhere - unless you’re there
All the time - all the way

Don’t tell me it’s not worth trying for
I can’t help it there’s nothing I want more
I would fight for you - I’d lie for you
Walk the wire for you - Yeah I’d die for you

You know it’s true
Everything I do - I do it for you

One day in your life
Youll remember a place
Someone touching your face
Youll come back and youll look around, youll . . .

One day in your life
Youll remember the love you found here
Youll remember me somehow
Though you dont need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
Youll remember one day . . .
One day in your life
When you find that youre always waiting
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and Ill be there

Youll remember me somehow
Though you dont need me now
I will stay in your heart
And when things fall apart
Youll remember one day . . .

One day in your life
When you find that youre always lonely
For a love we used to share
Just call my name, and Ill be there
