FLY ME TO THE MOON

"Fly Me to the Moon", originally titled "In Other Words", is a popular song written in 1954 by Bart Howard. Kaye Ballard made the first recording of the song in 1954. Since then it has become a frequently recorded jazz standard often featured in popular culture. Frank Sinatra's 1964 version was closely associated with the Apollo missions to the Moon. In 1999 The USA based Songwriters Hall of Fame recognized the importance of "Fly Me to the Moon" by inducting it as a "Towering Song"[1] which is an award "...presented each year to the creators of an individual song that has influenced our culture in a unique way over many years.”[


Fly Me To The Moon (Emmène Moi Jusqu'à La Lune)
Fly me to the moon
Emmène-moi jusqu'à la Lune
Let me play among the stars
Laisse-moi jouer parmi les étoiles
Let me see what spring is like
Laisse-moi voir à quoi ressemble le printemps
On Jupiter and Mars
Sur Jupiter et Mars
In other words, hold my hand
En d'autres mots, prends ma main
In other words, baby kiss me
En d'autres mots, bébé embrasse-moi
Fill my heart with song
Emplis mon coeur d'une chanson
And let me sing for ever more
Et laisse-moi chanter éternellement
You are all I long for
Tu es tout ce que je désire,
All I worship and adore
Tout ce que je respecte et adore
In other words, please be true
En d'autres mots, s'il te plaît soit sincère
In other words, I love you !
En d'autres mots, je t'aime !

my kind of town

"My Kind of Town" or "My Kind of Town (Chicago Is)" is a popular song composed by Jimmy Van Heusen, with lyrics by Sammy Cahn.[1] It was originally part of the musical score for Robin and the 7 Hoods, a 1964 musical film starring several members of the Rat Pack.[2] It was nominated for the 1964 Academy Award for Best Original Song but lost to "Chim Chim Cher-ee" from Mary Poppins.[3] Although the song predated the Grammy Award Best Original Song for a Motion Picture category, the entire score was nominated for the 1964 Grammy Award in the category Best Original Score Written for A Motion Picture, but it lost to the eponymously titled Mary Poppins score.[4] Frank Sinatra recorded several versions which have appeared on many of his albums. Also, many artists have performed the song as a tribute to Sinatra in posthumous tribute albums. In addition, the song had been recorded by many other artists prior to Sinatra's death. The lyrics, which praise the city of Chicago for its people and institutions, repeat the phrase My Kind of Town several times, usually in a line that says "My kind of town, Chicago is".                                                                                                                                                                                                      Mon Genre De Ville Hey, ça n'arrive qu'à un gars comme moi Et dans une ville comme celle-ci Alors puis-je vous dire avec reconnaissance Pendant que je vous envoie chacun un baiser C'est mon genre de ville, Chicago c'est Mon genre de ville, Chicago c'est Mon genre de gens, aussi Des gens qui te sourient en retour Et chaque fois que je m'éloigne, Chicago me Rappelle à la maison, Chicago est La raison pour laquelle je sourie comme un clown C'est mon genre de ville Mon genre de ville, Chicago c'est Mon genre de ville, Chicago c'est Mon genre d'activités grouillantes Et il y a tout ce jazz Et chaque fois que je m'en vais, Chicago S'accroche à moi, Chicago c'est L'édifice Wrigley, Chicago c'est Le Union Stockyard, Chicago c'est Une ville qui ne te laissera pas tomber C'est mon genre de ville
