📚 SONG LYRICS "FIRE IN MY HEART" 🔥 (as performed by MADLEEN KANE)

CHORUS:
Well there's a fire in my heart tonight
Oh there's a fire in my heart tonight
I wanna see you alright

Well there's a fire in my heart tonight
I can feel that it's right
Oh there's a fire.... in my heart
Well there's a fire.... in my heart

Oh there's a fire in my heart tonight
It's gotta be it tonight
Well there's a fire in my....
Heart

VERSE 1:
All my friends warned me about you
They told me so
They told me so
They heard a rumour spread about you
They told me so
They told me so

My mama said remember one thing
They told you so
They told you so
I don't care how much I hear it
They told you so
They told you so

CHORUS:

VERSE 2:
They say I'm walkin' such a fine line
They told me so
They told me so
He'll take your heart
and you'll lose your own life
They told me so
They told me so

VERSE 3:
He'll come between common sense and emotion
They told me so
They told me so
I'm not arrayed on love's a notion
They told me so
They told me so

CHORUS:

SONG BACKGROUND: "Darla dirladada" is a song recorded by French singer Dalida, released on single during summer of 1970. It was a #1 hit in France.

The song is based on Greek folk song "Dirlada" (Greek: Ντιρλαντά), originating from the island of Kalymnos in Greece. "The Dirlada has been popular on the Greek island Kalymnos for a very long time.

Dirlada, which we encounter in several versions and in a number of variants, is a work song, which might be sung oil-press to hearten the workers tolling at the hand-press of the time, or in the boats during the processing of sponges, or when pulling the oars.

The tune but also the name, seem to be related to similar songs of the peoples of North Africa, with whom the Kalymnians long maintained - and still maintain - close relations, owing to the islanders' sponge-diving activities along the coasts of Egypt and Cyrenaica. The musicologist Samuel Baud-Bovy speaks of tunes that are common to the peoples of the Mediterranean. We encounter such tunes in Kalymnos, as well. In the years after the last World War, it began to be danced on Kalymnos in a manner reminiscent of Arabic dances, arapika , as they were called; that is, it was danced by couples, as a face-to-face, and the steps were quick and springy.

The song is begun by one singer, the rest of the group joining in at the "break" and repeating the words.

MODERN VERSIONS:
Dionysis Savvopoulos sang "Dirlada" on his 1969 album To Perivoli tou Trelou.

In 1970 the song was recorded by French singer Dalida. It was released as a single from her album Ils ont changé ma chanson, on which it features as the sixth track. Dalida also recorded the song in Italian, German, and English-language versions.

In the same year it was also recorded by Cypriot-American-Israeli singer Trifonas Nikolaidis in Israel and released as an EP with 2 additional songs on the B-side.

It was the inspiration for the 1971 pop song Loop di Love by Juan Bastós.

The famous Greek songstress Marinella recorded two spirited cover versions of the song in 1971. One appeared on a compilation LP with various artists entitled ‘’Ena Karavi Yemato Tragoudia / A Boat Full of Songs’’. The other more known version appears as the last track of her studio album ‘’Enas Mithos/A Story’’

In 1973, Chilean singer José Alfredo Fuentes recorded an adaptation of the song in Spanish, released as "Dirladada".

The song has been covered by the Belgian-Flemish singer Marva. The most notable cover version, so far, is that of G.O. Culture in 1993, which became a huge hit in France.

The song is popular in Finland as well, recorded with Finnish lyrics by Kai Hyttinen in 1972. Erkki Pälli, a Finnish music producer and a journalist, heard this rousing song on a holiday in Rhodos back in 1971–72 and brought it back home with him. He offered it to Kai "Kuju" Hyttinen, who got a hit single of it. Pälli had just misheard the song and in Finland it is known as "Dirlanda" or "Dirlandaa".

Finnish music group Jean S. has also re-covered the song.


In 1982, a high energy disco version by 'Tanya' was released by Canadian Ali Baba Records, and widely bootlegged in the USA, Mexico and South American countries.

In 1995, for their fifth album, the Macedonian rock band "Memorija", recorded a version of this song, titled "Dirlada".

In 2018, the Romanian band D-l Goe covered the song to honour the 1st of March holiday, using an electro rock approach for the Romanian lyrics, previously used by singer Margareta Paslaru.

RETRO DISCO Hi-NRG 🚀 http://retrodisco-hi-nrg.blogspot.com 🖭 https://www.mixcloud.com/retro-nrg/ Remembering Bill Grainger: ✨ (R.I.P)
🔺 Bill Grainger is known for bringing HI NRG music to Scotland through his legendary Fire Island Club in Edinburgh in the 1980’s and his long running HI NRG show on Radio Clyde (Glasgow & Central Scotland) during the same period. He has worked with Simon Cowell, Eartha Kitt, Evelyn Thomas, Village People, Hazell Dean, Sinitta and many more. he also worked with Record Shack Records and managed Seventh Avenue who later became Big Fun (best remembered for their hit single Blame It On The Boogie). He also toured with The Hitman & Her show with Pete Waterman, Kylie Minogue & Jason Donovan. He then went on to launch CLUBSCENE RECORDS and ACADEMY STREET RECORDS.
🔺 Divine (performer) 👠 Artist info: ✨ (R.I.P)
Harris Glenn Milstead (October 19, 1945 – March 7, 1988), better known by his stage name Divine, was an American actor, singer, and drag queen. Closely associated with the independent filmmaker John Waters, Divine was a character actor, usually performing female roles in cinematic and theatrical productions, and adopted a female drag persona for his music career. After starring as the lead role in Waters' next film, Female Trouble (1974), Divine moved on to theatre, appearing in several avant-garde performances alongside San Francisco drag collective, The Cockettes. He followed this with a performance in Tom Eyen's play Women Behind Bars and its sequel, The Neon Woman. Continuing his cinematic work, he starred in two more of Waters' films, Polyester (1981) and Hairspray (1988), the latter of which represented his breakthrough into mainstream cinema and for which he was nominated for the Independent Spirit Award for Best Supporting Male. Independent of Waters, he also appeared in a number of other films, such as Lust in the Dust (1985) and Trouble in Mind (1985), seeking to diversify his repertoire by playing male roles. In 1981, Divine embarked on a career in the disco industry by producing a number of Hi-NRG tracks, most of which were written by Bobby Orlando. He achieved international chart success with hits like "You Think You're a Man", "I'm So Beautiful", and "Walk Like a Man", all of which were performed in drag. Having struggled with obesity throughout his life, he died from cardiomegaly, shortly after the release of Hairspray. Described by People magazine as the "Drag Queen of the Century", Divine has remained a cult figure, particularly within the LGBT community, and has provided the inspiration for fictional characters, artworks, and songs. Various books and documentary films devoted to his life have also been produced, including Divine Trash (1998) and I Am Divine (2013).

📖 Song Lyrics - "Just Another Broken Heart" 💔 (DOROTHY MOORE)

Who rewrote the age-old story
Seems you knew the lines before
He came along to be your leading man.

Cast again as femme-fatale,
You're left without a curtain call
Waiting in the wings where you came in.

He was all you ever wanted
A sense of style, a taste for drama
Each of you stayed true to character.

Caught up in your own performance
Never read the subtle warnings
'til the moment you became aware

That it's

Just another broken Heart
Another minor tragedy
In which you played a major part

And if the footlights finally fade
The saddest scene has played.
And like the shadow in the dark you're left with

Just another broken heart

Just another Broken Heart

Now you wonder what it was
That turned the glitter into dust
And why this stage is always where you are

Here is where the actress cries
Left alone to realise
The script was merely written by the star

And it's

Just another broken,
Just another broken heart
Another minor tragedy
In which you played a major part

And if the footlights finally fade
The saddest scene has played
And like the shadow in the dark you're left with
Just another broken heart
Another broken heart
Another broken heart.
