Can't buy me votes (love) by BeeEnd
Lyrics for song "Can't buy me votes" in honor of the shameful Barisan Nasional (UMNO or United Malays National Organization) which tried to buy votes during the Kuala Terengganu by-election (more like buy-election) to the tunes of "Can't buy me love" by the Beatles:
Can’t buy me votes, votes
Can’t buy me votes
I’ll tar all the roads my friend, if it makes you vote for me
I’ll give laptop to you my friend, if it makes you vote for me
Cos I don’t care too, much for money, as long as it can buy me votes
I’ll give you all I got to give if you say you’ll vote for me
I may not have a lot to give but what I got I’ll give to you
I don’t care too, much for the money, after all it belongs to you
Can’t buy me votes, everybody tells me so
Can’t buy me votes, no no no no
Pay for all that you ever need and make you satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can buy
I don’t care too much for money, hoping money can buy me votes
Can’t buy me votes, everybody tells me so
Can’t buy me votes, no no no, no
Pay for all that you ever need and make you satisfied
Tell me that you want the kind of thing that money just can buy
I don’t care too much for money, hoping money can buy me votes
Can’t buy me votes, votes
Can’t buy me votes

Tell Laura I love her - Ray Peterson
Video of Ray Peterson singing oldie hit song "Tell Laura I love her":
Lyrics for hit song "Tell Laura I love her" by Ray Peterson:
Laura and Tommy where lovers
He wanted to give her everything
Flowers, presents,
and most of all, a wedding ring.
He saw a sign for a stock car race,
a thousand dollar prize it read,
he couldnt get Laura on the phone,
so to her mother, Tommy said
Tell Laura I lover her,
Tell laura I need her
Tell Laura i may be late,
I've something to do, that can not wait.
He drove his car to the racing ground
He was the youngest driver there
The crowd roared as they started the race
from the track they drove at a deadly pace
no one knows what happend that day,
how his car over turned in flames,
but as they pulled him from the twisted wreck,
with his dying breath, they heard him say...
Tell Laura I lover her,
Tell laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
my love for her, will never die
Now in the chapel laura prays,
for her tommy who passed away
it was just for laura he lived and died
alone in the chapel she could hear him cry
Tell Laura I lover her,
Tell laura I need her
Tell Laura not to cry
my love for her will never die
Tell Laura I lover her,
Tell laura I need her

Rhythm of the falling rain - The Cascades

Lyrics for the song "Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain" by The Cascades:
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again.
The only girl I care about has gone away
Lookin' for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain please tell me now does that seem fair
For her to steal my heart away when she don't care
I can't love another when my heart's somewhere far away.
The only girl I care about has gone away
Looking for a brand new start
But little does she know that when she left that day
Along with her she took my heart.
Rain won't you tell her that I love her so
Please ask the sun to set her heart aglow
Rain in her heart and let the love we knew start to grow.
Listen to the rhythm of the falling rain
Telling me just what a fool I've been
I wish that it would go and let me cry in vain
And let me be alone again.
Woa, listen to the falling rain
Pita Pata Pita Pata
Woa, listen to the falling rain
Pita pata pita pata
Woa, listen to the falling rain

Teresa Teng Deng Lijun according to Wikipedia
Teresa Teng at Amazon
Teresa Teng (January 29, 1953 – May 8, 1995) (traditional Chinese: 鄧麗君; pinyin: Dèng Lìjūn; simplified Chinese: 邓丽君), sometimes spelled as Tang or Deng, was an immensely popular and influential Chinese pop singer. Teresa Teng's voice and songs are instantly recognizable in China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Malaysia and Japan. She was known for her folk songs and romantic ballads, most of them having reached classic status during her lifetime.
She recorded many songs that are now stables of popular Chinese music, including "When Will You Return?" (simplified Chinese: 何日君再来; pinyin: Hé Rì Jūn Zài Lái). In addition to her Mandarin repertoire, she also recorded songs in Taiwanese, Cantonese, Japanese, Indonesian, and English.
Teresa Teng
In 1968, She had her first taste of fame after performing on a popular music program in Taiwan which led her to a record contract. She released several albums within the next few years under the Life Records label. In 1973, she attempted to crack the Japanese market by signing with Polydor Japan records label, and taking part in Japan's Kōhaku Uta Gassen, a year-round singing match of the most successful artists of the year. She won the prize for "Best New Singing Star".[1] Following her success in Japan, Teresa sang many Japanese songs, including original hits such as "I Only Care About You" (時の流れに身をまかせ or 我只在乎你). Many of these Japanese songs were translated and sung in Chinese.[citation needed]
In 1974, with the song "Airport" (空港), she conquered Japan, where she remained a leading star despite a short exile in 1979 when she was deported for having a fake Indonesian passport that was bought for $20,000, a subterfuge thought necessary by a break in relations between Taiwan and Japan on China's entry to the UN Security Council. Singing by now in Cantonese, Japanese and English besides her native Mandarin, Teresa's enormous popularity reached Malaysia and Indonesia.
Teresa ended the contract with Polydor in 1981. Then she signed the contract with Taurus Records in 1983 when she re-debuted in Japan to great success. In 1984, she released her most-acclaimed album, Light Exquisite Feeling (淡淡幽情). This album is comprised of 12 poems from the Tang and Song dynasties, set to a blend of modern Western and traditional Chinese music written by various composers who were involved in many of Teresa's previous albums. The most famous song from the album is "Wishing We Last Forever" (但願人長久).
Political tension between Taiwan and China continues, so her music as well as others from Hong Kong were banned for several years in Mainland China in the early 1980s for being too "bourgeois"[2] and reactionary ideology. However, this did not stop her growing popularity on the mainland. Through the black market, her songs were played everywhere, from nightclubs to government buildings. It wasn't long before the ban on her music was lifted. Since she had the same family name that Deng Xiaoping had, some people nicknamed her "Little Deng."[3]
In 1989, She performed in Paris during the Tiananmen student uprising, singing for students and proclaiming her support for democracy. On May 27th, 1989, over 300,000 people attended the concert called "Democratic songs dedicated to China" (民主歌聲獻中華) at the Happy Valley Racecourse in Hong Kong. One of the highlights was her rendition of "My home is on the other side of the mountain."[4]
In Taiwan during the 70's and 80's, Teresa was also known as the 'soldier's sweetheart" because she periodically performed for the troops (she was a child of a military family). Her songs were especially noted for giving mainlanders (or KMT) a sense of longing for their homes in China. Her songs unified and touched the heart of the Chinese people throughout the world. Yeh Yueh-Yu, a professor of Cultural Theory at the University of Southern California said, "It was the sweetness in her voice that made her famous. She had a perfect voice for folk songs and ballads, and she added traditional folk song stylings into Western-style compositions." Her voice was also described as being "like weeping and pleading, but with strength, capable of drawing in and hypnotizing listeners." Songwriter Tsuo Hung-yun said Teng's voice was "seven parts sweetness, three parts tears." Her singing was heartfelt and genuine.
Teresa had dreamed of giving a concert in mainland China and was even publicly invited by the Chinese government, but it would never happen due to her untimely death.[5]

Lyrics for the song "To Sir with love" by Lulu:
Those schoolgirl days
of telling tales and biting nails are gone
But in my mind
I know they will still live on and on
But how do you thank someone
who has taken you from crayons to perfume?
It isn't easy but I'll try
If you wanted the sky
I would write across the sky in letters
That would soar a thousan feet high
To Sir, with love
The time has come
for closing books and long last looks must end
And as I leave
I know that I am leaving my best friend
A friend who taught me right from wrong
And weak from strong, that's a lot to learn
What what can I give you in return?
If you wanted the moon I will try to make a start
But I would rather you let me give my heart
To Sir with love

Lyrics for the song "Careless whisper":
by George Michaed & Aundren Mdoley:
I fee so unsure
as I take your hand
and lead you to the dance floor
As the music dies
Something in your eyes
Calls to mind a silver screen
and all its sad goodbye
Chorus:
I'm never going to dance again
Guilty feet has no rhythm
Though it is easy to pretend
I know you're not a fool
Should have known better than to cheat a friend
and waste the chance that I've been given
So I'm never going to dance again
The way I dance with you.
Time can never mend
The careless whispers of a good friend
To the heart and mind
Ignorance is kind
There's no comfort in the truth
Pain is all you find
