Especial Bioshock - Sweet Madness

Adrian Rollini fue un intérprete americano de jazz, quien tocaba múltiples instrumentos. A partir del año 1924 comenzó con su orquesta. Entre sus canciones están la que dejo el día de hoy "Sweet Madness".

Sweet Madness

Sweet Madness,
It's sweet madness,
When we two get together.
Sweet Madness, 
What else can it be? When you're close to me
I'm not responsible darling. 
Your lips willing are so thrilling,
And each thrill lasts forever.
Sweet Madness
Where I'm Mad and I'm glad,
It's grand to grow mad with you.

Especial Bioshock - Ten Cents a Dance


La canción de hoy se llama "Ten Cents a Dance"y es interpretada por Ruth Etting quienfue una actriz de los años 1920 y cantante del 1930, llegando a grabar unos 60 hits. 

Ten Cents a Dance


I work at the palace ballroom
But gee, that palace is cheap
When I get back to my chilly hallroom
I'm much too tired to sleep

I'm one of those lady teachers
A beautiful hostess you know
One that the palace features
At exactly a dime a throw

Ten cents a dance
That's what they pay me
Gosh, how they weigh me down
Ten cents a dance
Pansies and rough guys
Tough guys who tear my gown

Seven to midnight I hear drums
Loudly the saxophone blows
Trumpets are tearing my ear drums
Customers crush my toes

Sometimes I think, I've found my hero
But it's a queer romance
All that you need is a ticket
Come on, big boy
Ten cents a dance

Fighters and sailors and bow-legged tailors
Can pay for their tickets and rent me
Butchers and barbers and rats from the harbors
Are sweethearts my good luck has sent me

Though I've a chorus of elderly bows
Stockings are porous with holes at the toes
I'm here till closing time
Dance and be merry, it's only a dime

Sometimes I think, I've found my hero
But it's a queer romance
All that you need is a ticket
Come on, come on big boy
Ten cents a dance

Especial Bioshock - Hush Hush Hush, Here Comes the Boogeyman

El tema de hoy pertenece a Henry Hall, quien fue un líder de bandas durante los años 1920 - 1930  hasta aproximadamente 1960. El tema de hoy lleva por nombre "Hush Hush Hush, Here Comes the Boogeyman"

Hush Hush Hush, Here Comes the Boogeyman


Children, have you ever met the bogey man before?
No, of course you haven't for you're much too good I'm sure
Don't you be afraid of him if he should visit you
He's a great big coward so I'll tell you what to do

Hush hush hush, here comes the bogey man
Don't let him come too close to you, he'll catch you if he can
Just pretend that you're a crocodile
and you will find the bogey man will run away a mile

Say shoo shoo and stick him with a pin
Bogey man will very nearly jump out of his skin
Say buzz buzz just like the wasp that stings
Bogey man will think you are an elephant with wings

Hush hush hush, here comes the bogey man
Tell him you've got soldiers in your bed
For he will never guess that they are only made of lead

Say hush hush, he'll think that you're asleep
If you make a lovely snore, away he'll softly creep
Sing this tune, you children, one and all
Bogey man will run away, he'll think it's Henry Hall!

When the shadows of the evening creep across the sky
And your mummy comes upstairs to sing a lullaby
Tell her that the bogey man no longer frightens you
Uncle Henry's very kindly told you what to do

Hush hush hush, here comes the bogey man
Don't let him come too close to you, he'll catch you if he can
Just pretend your teddy bear's a dog
and shout out "Fetch him teddy!" and he'll hop off like a frog

Say miaoow, he'll think that you're a cat
He'll think you may scratch him, that will make him fall down flat
Just pretend he isn't really there
You will find the bogey man will finish in thin air

Here's one way to catch him without fail
Just keep a little salt with you and pop it on his tail!
