Music by Tony Renis, Lyrics by Marva Jan Marrow, Sung by: Renee Olstead and produced by David Foster and Humberto Gatica

Merry Christmas in Love

Things that tremble tingle like a bubble full of rainbows… then crack
Sizzle, sing and whisper, when the shadows lace the moonlight with black

Things with silver linings, sparkling tinsel, twinkle shining with…
Waving wispy willow wings that breathe a song of Christmastime dreams…

Things that glow and glisten, eyes of children when they listen… then burst
Things that touch the wistful wish of watching someone else succeed first
Days that dingle dangle with a million parts untangle to
Satin stars that spangle and those Christmas bells that clangle out… dreams…

I’m dreaming of Christmas
To you, Merry Christmas

Dreaming… of a merry Christmas
To you… a very merry Christmas

Galloping and gliding, Santa Claus’ sleigh we’re riding and
Bringing joyful tidings to the dreamers who are lying below…

I’m talking of daydreams
Wishes and moonbeams

Then I tremble tingle like a bubble full of rainbows and light
When you came to wake me and to wish me Merry Christmas in love…

Christmas in love..

I can tremble tingle like a bubble full of rainbows and light
When you came to wake me and to wish me Merry Christmas in love…

Merry Christmas in love…

And the programs name is “Ti Lascio Una Cancion,” something like “I leave you a song.”It’s not a concert. It’s like a sort of American Idol in Italy and this one’s the junior for kids. And they also like to invite international guest stars to sing with the kids special songs. But there’s really a singing contest among the kids and one also gets a trophy for winning….

Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just as Bad) T-Bone Walker

They call it stormy Monday but Tuesday’s just as bad
They call it stormy Monday but Tuesday’s just as bad
Wednesday is worse and Thursday’s also sad

The eagle flies on Friday; Saturday I go out to play
The eagle flies on Friday; Saturday I go out to play
Sunday I go to church, hmm ,
That’s when I get down on my knees and pray

I said Lord have mercy,
Oh Lord, Lord, Lord have mercy on me
Yeah Lord, Lord, Lord, Lord have mercy on me
Don’t you know I’m just trying to find my baby
Won’t somebody please send him on home to me
Oh yeah

Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me,
Lord have mercy, Lord have mercy on me,
Don’t you know I’m just trying to find my baby
Won’t somebody please send him on home to me

Renee Olstead performs at Sunday Kind of Love the 2005 Montreux Jazz Festival

Sunday Kind Of Love
by Barbara Belle, Anita Leonard, Stan Rhodes, and Louis Prima

I want a Sunday kind of love
A love that will last past Saturday night
And I’ve got to know it’s more than love at first sight
I want a Sunday kind of love

I want a love that’s on the square
Can’t seem to find somebody. someone to care
And I’m on a lonely road that leads me nowhere
I need a Sunday kind of love

I do all my Sunday dreaming and all my Sunday scheming
Every minute, Every hour, Every day
And I’m hoping to discover a certain kind of lover
Who will show me the way

And my arms need someone to enfold, to keep me warm
When those Mondays and Tuesdays grow cold
And I need a love for all my life, to have and hold
I want a Sunday kind of love, oh yeah

I don’t want a Monday or a Tuesday
Wednesday or Thursday, Friday or Saturday
I don’t want nothing baby
But I want a Sunday kind of love

Jo Stafford

Etta James

Frankie Valli & The Four Seasons

“Pennies From Heaven”

Arthur Johnston / Johnny Burke

Every time it rains
It rains pennies from heaven
Don’t you know each cloud contains
Pennies from heaven
You’ll find your fortune
Fallin’ all over town
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
It you want the things you love
You must have showers
So when you hear it thunder
Don’t run under a tree
There’ll be pennies from heaven
For you and me

You’ll find your fortune
Fallin’ all over town
Be sure that your umbrella is upside down
Trade them for a package of sunshine and flowers
It you want the things you love
You must have showers
So when you hear it thunder
Don’t run under a tree
There’ll be pennies from heaven
For you and me
