       Roland Kent LaVoie(born July 31, 1943), better known by his stage name Lobo(which is a Spanish word for wolf), is an American singer-songwriter who was successful in the 1970s, scoring several U.S. Top 10 hits including "Me and You and a Dog Named Boo", "I'd Love You to Want Me", and "Don't Expect Me to Be Your Friend". These three songs, along with "Where Were You When I Was Falling in Love", gave Lobo four chart toppers on the Easy Listening/Hot Adult Contemporary chart.
        Calumet is the third album by Lobo, released in 1973 on Big Tree Records. It was reissued in 2008 by Wounded Bird Records and includes six bonus tracks.
The album peaked at Nº 128 on the US Top LPs chart. Two of its singles were top 30 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 and top 5 hits on the Easy Listening chart. "There Ain't No Way" and its B-side "Love Me For What I Am" were minor hits on the Hot 100.
If the time should ever come
That you feel our race is run
And you're old brass bed's the only
thing that we share
If you think our ships come in
Let's just break it off my friend
Cause nothings worse than playing like you care.
 
There's nothing that's so final about leaving
Even though I know that's what you've heard
Just like forgive, forget and try again
Goodbye is just another word.
 
If you feel the time is right
And you sneak off in the night
And live out all those stories in your head
When your shiny knight goes home
And you're left there all alone
And you need a friend remember what I said.

THE EVERLY BROTHERS
SONGWRITER: DONALD I EVERLY
COUNTRY: U. S. A.
ALBUM: A DATE WITH THE EVERLY BROTHERS
LABEL: WARNER BROS. RECORDS
GENRE: POP ROCK
YEAR: 1960
 
         The Everly Brothers were an American rock duo, known for steel-string acoustic guitar playing and close harmony singing. Consisting of Isaac Donald "Don" Everly (February 1, 1937 – August 21, 2021) and Phillip "Phil" Everly (January 19, 1939 – January 3, 2014), the duo combined elements of rock and rollcountry, and pop, becoming pioneers of country rock.
       The duo was raised in a musical family, first appearing on radio singing along with their father Ike Everly and mother Margaret Everly as "The Everly Family" in the 1940s. When the brothers were still in high school, they gained the attention of prominent Nashville musicians like Chet Atkins, who began to promote them for national attention.
       They began writing and recording their own music in 1956, and their first hit song came in 1957, with "Bye Bye Love", written by Felice and Boudleaux Bryant. The song hit Nº 1 in the spring of 1957, and additional hits would follow through 1958, many of them written by the Bryants, including "Wake Up Little Susie", "All I Have to Do Is Dream", and "Problems". In 1960, they signed with the major label Warner Bros. Records and recorded "Cathy's Clown", written by the brothers themselves, which was their biggest selling single. The brothers enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve in 1961, and their output dropped off, though additional hit singles continued through 1962, with "That's Old Fashioned (That's the Way Love Should Be)" being their last top-10 hit.
       Long-simmering disputes with Wesley Rose, the CEO of Acuff-Rose Music, which managed the group, and a growing drug usage in the 1960s, as well as changing tastes in popular music, led to the group's decline in popularity in its native U.S., though the brothers continued to release hit singles in the U.K. and Canada and had many highly successful tours throughout the 1960s. In the early 1970s, the brothers began releasing solo recordings, and in 1973 they officially broke up. Starting in 1983, the brothers got back together and continued to perform periodically until Phil's death in 2014. Don died seven years later.
         The group was highly influential with the music of the generation that followed it. Many of the top acts of the 1960s were heavily influenced by the close-harmony singing and acoustic guitar playing of the Everly Brothers, including the Beatles, the Beach Boys, the Bee Gees, and Simon & Garfunkel. In 2015, Rolling Stone ranked the Everly Brothers Nº 1 on its list of the 20 Greatest Duos of All Time. They were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame as part of the inaugural class of 1986, and into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2001. Don was inducted into the Musicians Hall of Fame and Museum in 2019, earning the organization's first Iconic Riff Award for his distinctive rhythm guitar intro to the Everlys' massive 1957 hit "Wake Up Little Susie".
       A Date with the Everly Brothers is the fourth studio album by American singing duo the Everly Brothers, released in 1960. It peaked at Nº 9 on the Billboard Pop albums charts and reached Nº 3 in the UK.
          The song "Love Hurts" appears here for the first time. It would subsequently be covered by numerous other artists. Other than the "Cathy's Clown"/"Always It's You" single, all of the tracks on A Date with the Everly Brothers were recorded in just four sessions during July 1960.
        Writing for Allmusic, critic Richie Unterberger wrote of the album "Although the material is not on the killer level of 'It's Everly Time', there are some very fine songs on their second Warner LP."
       The album was included in Robert Dimery's 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die.
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses, that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
 
I gotta stand tall
You know a man can't crawl
When he knows you're tellin' lies and he hears 'em passing by
He's not a man at all
 
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses, that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
 
When you see me shed a tear
And you know that it's sincere
Don't you think it's kinda sad that you're treating me so bad
Or don't you even care?
 
Don't want your love anymore
Don't want your kisses, that's for sure
I die each time I hear this sound
Here he comes, that's Cathy's clown
 
That's Cathy's clown
That's Cathy's clown.

THIS IS NOT A LOVE SONG

NOUVELLE VAGUE (HELENA NOGUERRA)
SONGWRITERS: JOHN LYDON; KEITH LEVENE & MARTIN CLIVE ATKINS
COUNTRY: FRANCE/BELGIUM
ALBUM: NOUVELLE VAGUE
LABEL: PEACEFROG RECORDS
GENRE: EASY LISTENING
YEAR: 2004
 
    Nouvelle Vague is a French cover band led by musicians Olivier Libaux and Marc Collin. Their name means "new wave" in French, and refers simultaneously to the French New Wave cinema movement of the 1960s, to the new wave music movement of the 1970s and 1980s, which provides many of the songs that the band covers, and to bossa nova(Portuguese for "new wave"), a musical style that the band frequently uses in its arrangements.
    The group's recordings and live performances have featured a large rotating cast of mostly female vocalists. Several of the artists who have performed with the band have also had successful solo careers, including Camille, Phoebe Killdeer, Mélanie Pain, and Nadéah Miranda.
      Nouvelle Vague is the debut studio album by the French band Nouvelle Vague. It was first released on 9 August 2004 on Peacefrog Records.
      The album consists entirely of easy listening and bossa nova versions of songs that were written and recorded during the post-punk/new wave era. The band's name is a play on words, new wave and bossa nova being the literal translations, in English and Portuguese respectively, of the French phrase Nouvelle Vague, which is itself a reference to the French cinema movement of the 1950s and 1960s. The songs were recorded with female vocalists who had not previously heard the songs they would be covering.
        Marc Collin and Olivier Libaux began work on the project in 2003, after Collin had the idea of covering Joy Division's "Love Will Tear Us Apart" in a bossa nova style. Libaux later explained: "I met Marc Collin during the 90's, at a friend's place. Marc was the first musician I met in years who I could talk [to] about new wave music. For some reason, at the end of the 80's, punk and new wave music had turned into a sort of old-fashioned music, which nobody was talking about anymore. Meeting Marc, I could talk about The Stranglers, The Cure and The Sisters of Mercy again. We then have worked on a couple of albums he was producing ... Starting Nouvelle Vague was sounding obvious for us, as our ideas were matching, and the songs were happening well and quickly." The album was produced and recorded over a period of eight months.
This is not a love song
Happy to have, not to have not
Big business is very wise
I'm crossing over into
Enterprise
 
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
 
I'm adaptable now, I like my new role
I'm getting better and better
I have a new goal, I'm changing my ways
Where money applies, this is not a love song
 
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
 
I'm going over to the other side
I'm happy to have not to have not
Big business is very wise
I'm inside free enterprise
 
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
 
That television, behind the curtain
Out of the cupboard, you take the first train
Into the big world, are you ready to grab the candle?
That tunnel vision
 
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song
This is not a love song.

Lungomare pieno, quanta gente in strada
Non trovare scuse, facciamo serata
Guarda questa luna, quasi sembra finta
Tanto lo sapevo che ti avrei convinta
 
Ci giriamo intorno come Terra e Sole
Certe cose poi si spiegano da sole
Resti qui con me o continuerai a scappare?
Dimmi cosa vuoi fare
 
Non parliamone più
Ma mai più davvero
Tutto quello che so
Yo no soy capitán, tu non sei il marinero
 
Fra la gente nei bar, la notte non è mai finita
Questo ritmo che mi colpisce forte come un mitra
Se stanotte mi perdo tra le luci, che male c'è?
Ma lo sai quanta sabbia mi è passata fra le dita?
Non sono una señorita (la, la, la, la, la)
(Non sono una señorita, uo, oh) la, la, la, la, la
 
E cantano i gabbiani volando sopra il golfo
Ballano le navi in mezzo al mare mosso
Il vento sfiora (ah-ah) la schiuma delle onde
 
Le schiene già abbronzate, eh
Le spiagge più affollate, eh
E tu che parli al vento
Io ballo fuori tempo
 
Non parliamoci più
Ma mai più davvero
Ho visto piovere e cadere già troppe volte il mio cielo
 
Fra la gente nei bar, la notte non è mai finita
Questo ritmo che mi colpisce forte come un mitra
Se stanotte mi perdo per le strade, che male c'è?
Ma lo sai quanta sabbia mi è passata fra le dita?
Non sono una señorita (la la la la la), oh yeah
(Non sono una señorita, uo, oh) la, la, la, la, la
 
Andiamo giù come sabbie mobili
Nel fondo del mare, oh, oh, oh
 
Fra la gente nei bar, la notte non è mai finita (non è mai finita)
Questo ritmo che mi colpisce forte come un mitra (yeh, yeh)
Se stanotte mi perdo tra le luci, che male c'è?
Ma lo sai quanta sabbia mi è passata fra le dita?
Non sono una señorita (la la la la la)
(Non sono una señorita, uo, oh) la, la, la, la, la.
