         England Dan & John Ford Coley were an American soft rock duo composed of Danny Wayland "England Dan" Seals and John Edward "John Ford" Coley, active throughout the 1970s. Native Texans, they are best known for their 1976 single "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight", a Nº 2 hit on the Billboard Hot 100 and a Nº 1 Adult Contemporary hit. After they disbanded, Seals began performing as Dan Seals and launched a country music career through the 1980s which produced 11 Nº 1 country hits.
         Nights Are Forever is the fourth album by the pop rock duo England Dan & John Ford Coley. It was the pair's breakthrough album. "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" became one of their biggest hits, peaking at #2 on the Billboard Hot 100. The follow-up
single, "Nights Are Forever Without You," also proved successful, peaking at #10.
         The album was produced by Kyle Lehning. Both top ten singles were written by Parker McGee.
     Joe Viglione write on Allmusic, "Nights Are Forever was the breakthrough album for Dan Seals and John Coley after some sincere and excellent work on A&M Records in the early '70s. Two of their biggest hits were the title track and the beautiful "I'd Really Love to See You Tonight." Those songs are a good indication of the fine performances this 1976 album contains. The duo's originals like "Long Way Home" and the Dan Fogelberg-ish "Westward Wind" could have been hits as well displaying superb musicianship and delicate vocals." He also praises the work of songwriter Parker McGee as well as producer Kyle Lehning.
Hello, yeah, it's been a while
Not much, how 'bout you?
I'm not sure why I called
I guess, I really just wanted to talk to you
 
And I was thinking maybe later on
We could get together for a while
It's been such a long time
And I really do miss your smile
 
I'm not talking 'bout moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around
And I'd really love to see you tonight
 
We could go walking through a windy park
Or take a drive along the beach
Or stay at home and watch TV
You see, it really doesn't matter much to me
 
I'm not talking 'bout moving in
And I don't want to change your life
But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around
And I'd really love to see you tonight
 
I won't ask for promises
So, you don't have to lie
We've both played that game before
Say "I love you", then say "Goodbye"
 
I'm not talking 'bout moving in (I'm not talking)
And I don't want to change your life ('bout changing your life)
But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around
And I'd really love to see you tonight (I'd really love to see you tonight)
 
I'm not talking 'bout moving in (I'm not talking)
And I don't want to change your life ('bout changing your life)
But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around
And I'd really love to see you tonight (I'd really love to see you tonight)
 
I'm not talking 'bout moving in (I'm not talking)
And I don't want to change your life ('bout changing your life)
But there's a warm wind blowing the stars around.

NAZARETH
SONGWRITER: BOUDLEAUX BRYANT
COUNTRY: U. S. A.
ALBUM: SUPER GROUP FESTIVAL
LABEL: PHILIPS RECORDS
GENRE: ROCK
YEAR: 1974
 
      Nazareth are a Scottish hard rock band formed in Dunfermline in 1968 that had several hits in the United Kingdom, as well as in several other Western European countries in the early 1970s. They established an international audience with their 1975 album Hair of the Dog, which featured their hits "Hair of the Dog" and a cover of the ballad "Love Hurts". The band continues to record and tour.
        Nazareth formed in December 1968 in Dunfermline, Scotland, from the remaining members of semi-professional local group The Shadettes (formed in 1961) by vocalist Dan McCafferty, guitarist Manny Charlton, bassist Pete Agnew, and drummer Darrell Sweet. They were inspired by The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Nazareth took their name from Nazareth, Pennsylvania, which is cited in the first line of The Band's classic song "The Weight" ("I pulled into Nazareth, was feelin' about half past dead...").
       The band moved to London, England in 1970 and released their eponymous debut album in 1971. After getting some attention with their second album Exercises, released in 1972, Nazareth supported Deep Purple on tour, and issued the Roger Glover-produced Razamanaz, in early 1973. This collection spawned two UK Top Ten hits, "Broken Down Angel" and "Bad Bad Boy". This was followed by Loud 'N' Proud in late 1973, which contained another hit single with a cover of Joni Mitchell's song "This Flight Tonight". Then came another album Rampant, in 1974, that was equally successful although its only single, "Shanghai'd in Shanghai", narrowly missed the British Top 40. A non-album song, again a cover version, this time of Tomorrow's "My White Bicycle", was a UK Top 20 entry in 1975.
       Hair of the Dog was released in April 1975 and was produced by Manny Charlton, ending Roger Glover's association with the band. The title track of that album (popularly, though incorrectly, known as "Son of a Bitch" due to its hook lyric) became a staple of 1970s rock radio. The American version of the album included a song originally recorded by The Everly Brothers, the melodic Boudleaux Bryant-penned ballad "Love Hurts", that was released as a hit single in the UK and in the US, where it went platinum. The track became the band's only US Top Ten hit and was also a top 10 hit in nine other countries, reaching number 1 in six of them. The song was on the Norwegian chart for 60 weeks.
        In 1979, second guitarist Zal Cleminson was added to the line-up, remaining for two albums, No Mean City and Malice in Wonderland, and contributing numerous compositions. Malice in Wonderland contained the single "Holiday". In 1981, they contributed the song "Crazy (A Suitable Case for Treatment)" to the soundtrack to the film, Heavy Metal.
    Various Nazareth line-ups continued to make studio albums and tour throughout the 1980s and 1990s, although their popularity had declined such that some albums no longer received either a UK or a US release. They remained popular in Europe, particularly Germany, where "Dream On" became a hit single. In 1991, Billy Rankin returned to replace Manny Charlton on the No Jive album, remaining with the band until 1994.
         A tribute came in 1993 when Guns N' Roses covered Nazareth's "Hair of the Dog" on "The Spaghetti Incident?", consolation after they turned down Axl Rose's request for the group to play at his wedding. Rankin departed again in 1994, but with Jimmy Murrison and keyboard player Ronnie Leahy, Nazareth maintained a live following in Europe and the US.
Love hurts, love scars
Love wounds and marks
Any heart
Not tough or strong enough
To take a lot of pain, take a lot of pain
Love is like a cloud
Holds a lot of rain
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
 
I'm young, I know, but even so
I know a thing or two
I learned from you
I really learned a lot, really learned a lot
Love is like a flame
It burns you when it's hot
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
 
Some fools think of happiness
Blissfulness, togetherness
Some fools fool themselves, I guess
They're not foolin' me
 
I know it isn't true
I know it isn't true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
 
I know it isn't true
I know it isn't true
Love is just a lie
Made to make you blue
Love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh, love hurts
Ooh, ooh...

          Luis Alfonso Rodríguez López-Cepero(San Juan; 15 de abril de 1978), conocido artísticamente como Luis Fonsi, es un cantautor, actor y bailarín puertorriqueño.
       Conocido inicialmente en la balada romántica, pero que en 2017, debido a su incursión en el género reggaeton con su tema Despacito, canción que grabó junto con su compatriota, el cantante de reggaetón Daddy Yankee, se convirtió en un gran exponente de la música latina.
       Es el hijo mayor de Alfonso Rodríguez y Delia López-Cepero. Tiene dos hermanos menores: Jean Rodríguez, quien es también cantante y Tatiana Rodríguez. De pequeño, Luis Fonsi ya daba señas de que la música iba a guiar su vida. Con tres años imitaba a las estrellas del popular grupo Menudo, y a su corta edad ingresó en el Coro de Niños de San Juan. En su adolescencia formó un coro que versionaban canciones de los Boyz II Men.
          En 1989 se mudó con toda su familia desde Puerto Rico a Orlando, Florida, cuando tenía diez años de edad. Allí no sabía una palabra en inglés, pero no se resistió a la mudanza. Según el mismo, su padre le dijo «que iba a vivir en la misma ciudad que Mickey Mouse».
       AT&T Team USA Soundtrack es una compilación deportiva de varios artistas, creada para los Juegos Olímpicos de Verano de 2008 en Beijing.
          En el álbum aparecen cantantes y bandas como Lady Antebellum, 3 Doors Down, Nelly, Queen Latifah, Chris Brown, Sheryl Crow, Kate Voegele y Taylor Swift. El álbum consta de 15 temas en inglés y uno en español de Luis Fonsi. El álbum fue lanzado en la iTunes Store de EE. UU. el 7 de agosto de 2008 y se puede acceder a él a través de su sitio web oficial.
Me quedo callado
Soy como un niño dormido
Que puede despertarse con apenas solo un ruido
Cuando menos te lo esperas
Cuando menos lo imagino
Sé que un día no me aguanto y voy y te miro
 
Y te lo digo a los gritos
Y te ríes y me tomas por un loco atrevido
Pues no sabes cuánto tiempo en mis sueños has vivido
Ni sospechas cuando te nombré
 
Yo, yo no me doy por vencido
Yo quiero un mundo contigo
Juro que vale la pena esperar, y esperar y esperar un suspiro
Una señal del destino
No me canso, no me rindo, no me doy por vencido
 
Tengo una flor de bolsillo
Marchita de buscar a una mujer que me quiera
Y reciba su perfume hasta traer la primavera
Y me enseñé lo que no aprendí de la vida
Que brilla más cada día
Porque estoy tan sólo a un paso de ganarme la alegría
Porque el corazón levanta una tormenta enfurecida
Desde aquel momento en que te vi
 
Yo, yo no me doy por vencido
Yo quiero un mundo contigo
Juro que vale la pena esperar, y esperar y esperar un suspiro
Una señal del destino
No me canso, no me rindo, no me doy por vencido
 
Este silencio esconde demasiadas palabras
No me detengo, pase lo que pase seguiré
 
Yo, yo no me doy por vencido
Yo quiero un mundo contigo
Juro que vale la pena esperar, y esperar y esperar un suspiro
Una señal del destino
No me canso, no me rindo, no me doy por vencido
 
Oh oh oh
juro que vale la pena esperar, y esperar y esperar un suspiro
Una señal del destino
No me canso, no me rindo
no me doy por vencido, oh! oh!

Le dije al cielo que te fuiste y empezó a llorar
Seguro se acordó del día en que te conocí
Tú con el pelo suelto y yo con esas ganas de hacerte reír
Buscando mil maneras pa' no ser de nuevo
Eso que siempre fui
Y ya no quiero ser
 
Me duele, cada que me acuerdo de tus besos
Me duele, porque el tiempo va de ida
Y va sin ruta de regreso
 
El día que le borraste a mi contacto el corazón
Ese día me borraste el corazón
Y si pudiera hacer algo diferente
Lo habría hecho todo diferente
Tú y yo teníamos un propósito
Nada de esto fue a propósito
 
No es secreto
Perdóname, por no decirte que no soy perfecto
Y ahora que estás sola, dime si me echas de menos, tan solo un poquito
Quiero saber si te duele lo mismo que a mí, que a mí
 
No es secreto
Perdóname, por no mostrarte todos mis defectos
Ahora que estás sola, dime si me echas de menos, tan solo un poquito
Quiero saber si te duele lo mismo que a mí
Porque yo, no puedo respirar, sin ti
 
Yo sé que pasarán los años
Y que en cualquier momento subes una foto
En los brazos de un extraño
 
Eso sí va a hacerme daño
Cuando sea otro el que te cante el cumpleaños
Pero no te culpo, yo sé que vas a rehacer tu vida
Lo único que quiero que tú sepas
Es que yo no puedo rehacer la mía
 
Dime, si recuerdas el primer viaje que hicimos
Y si lo recuerdas, dime si en tu mente aún sientes lo mismo
Y si no, quiere decir que nos perdimos
Pero yo sé que dentro tuyo todavía sigue vivo el sentimiento
Que el primer día nos unió
 
Yo sé que dentro se te mueve el corazón
A ver, dime que no
A ver, dime que no
 
No es secreto
Perdóname, por no decirte que no soy perfecto (No soy perfecto)
Y ahora que estás sola dime, si me echas de menos, tan solo un poquito
Quiero saber si te duele lo mismo que a mí, que a mí
 
No es secreto
Perdóname, por no mostrarte todos mis defectos (Yeah)
Ahora que estás sola dime, si me echas de menos, tan solo un poquito
Quiero saber si te duele lo mismo que a mí (Dime si te duele)
Porque yo, no puedo respirar, sin ti.
