And i never thought i'd feel this way
And as far as i'm concerned
I'm glad i got the chance to say
That i do believe i love you
And if i should ever go away
Well then close your eyes and try
To feel the way we do today
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin' keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for

Well you came and opened me
And now there's so much more i see
And so by the way i thank you
And then for the times when we're apart
Well then close your eyes and know
These words are coming from my heart
And then if you can remember

Keep smilin' keep shinin'
Knowing you can always count on me for sure
That's what friends are for
For good times and bad times
I'll be on your side forever more
That's what friends are for.

Richard Steven Valenzuela(May 13, 1941 – February 3, 1959), known professionally as Ritchie Valens, was an American singer, songwriter, and guitarist. A rock & roll pioneer and a forefather of the Chicano rock movement, Valens' recording career lasted eight months, as it abruptly ended when he died in a plane crash.
During this time, he had several hits, most notably "La Bamba", which he had adapted from a Mexican folk song. Valens transformed the song into one with a rock rhythm and beat, and it became a hit in 1958, making Valens a pioneer of the Spanish-speaking rock and roll movement.
On February 3, 1959, on what has become known as "the Day the Music Died", Valens died in a plane crash in Iowa, an accident that also claimed the lives of fellow musicians Buddy Holly and J. P. "The Big Bopper" Richardson, as well as pilot Roger Peterson. Valens was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2001.
Los Lobos(pronounced [los ˈloβos], Spanish for "the Wolves") are an American rock band from East Los Angeles, California, United States. Their music is influenced by rock and roll, Tex-Mex, country, zydeco, folk, R&B, blues, brown-eyed soul, and traditional music such as cumbia, boleros and norteños. The band gained international stardom in 1987, when their cover version of Ritchie Valens' "La Bamba" topped the charts in the U.S., the UK and several other countries. In 2015, they were nominated for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

Tino Rossi nome d'arte di Constantin Rossi(Ajaccio, 29 aprile 1907 – Neuilly-sur-Seine, 26 settembre 1983) è stato un cantante e attore francese.
Tino Rossi nacque in 43 rue Fesch ad Aiaccio. Suo padre Laurent era sarto. Nella sua giovinezza, a Tino i suoi genitori regalarono una chitarra; egli cominciò quindi a comporre alcune canzoni, che suonerà poi in qualche locale di Aiaccio per racimolare qualche soldo. Poi decise di partire per Marsiglia, dove fece dei lavori umili in un ristorante e nel frattempo seguì gli spettacoli dei cabaret della Costa Azzurra ed alcune volte si fece conoscere cantando qualche nota canzone o qualche celebre melodia.
Negli anni 1930, partì per Parigi, e si fece una grande reputazione, che gli permise di lavorare per la celebre casa discografica Columbia, a fianco anche di grandi artisti come Lucienne Boyer, Damia, Pills et Tabet, Mireille Hartuch, Jean Sablon, e conobbe il miliardario eccentrico la Môme Moineau.
Tino oltre a cantare in francese, cantava in corso e in italiano.
Come sei bella, piu bella stasera, Mariu!
Splende un sorriso di stella negli
Occhi tuoi blu!
Anche se avverso il destino domani sara
Oggi ti sono vicino, perche sospirar?
Non pensar!

Parlami d'amore, Mariu!
Tutta la mia vita sei tu!
Gli occhi tuoi belli brillano,
Fiamme di sogno scintillano!
Dimmi che illusione non e,
Dimmi che sei tutta per me!
Qui sul tuo cuor non soffro piu:

Parlami d'amore, Mariu!
Gli occhi tuoi belli brillano
Fiamme di sogno scintillano!
Dimmi che illusione non e,
Dimmi che sei tutta per me!
Qui sul tuo cuor non soffro piu:

Parlami d'amore, Mariu!

I had to escape
The city was sticky and cruel
Maybe I should have called you first
But I was dying to get to you
I was dreaming while I drove
The long straight road ahead, uh, huh

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

What in this world
Keep us from tearing apart
No matter where I go I hear
The beating of your heart
I think about you
When the night is cold and dark
No one can move me
The way that you do
Nothing erases the feeling between me and you

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
Is that alright
I drove all night

Could taste your sweet kisses
Your arms open wide
This fever for you is just burning me up inside

I drove all night to get to you
Is that alright
I drove all night
Crept in your room
Woke you from your sleep
To make love to you
I drove all night... to hold you tight.
