DONNY OSMOND: WHEN I FALL IN LOVE AND 7 MORE







Donald Clark "Donny" Osmond (born December 9, 1957) is an American singer, musician, actor and former teen idol. Osmond has also been a talk show and game show host, record producer, race car driver,[1] and author. In the mid 1960s. he and his four elder brothers gained fame as the "Osmond Brothers" on the long running variety hour, the "Andy Williams Show". Donnie went solo in the early 1970s covering such hits as "Go Away Little Girl" and "Puppy Love". In 1978 he became known for being half of the brother-sister singing duet Donny & Marie, with a four year variety series of their own on ABC. Between a highly successful teen career in the 1970s and a rebirth in the 1990s, the singer/ actor's career was stymied in the 1980s, by what some have called a "boy scout image". Osmond stated on the May 01, 2009 "Larry King Live" show, that Michael Jackson once suggested that Osmond change his name. Osmond's agent even suggested that spreading false rumors about drug arrest charges might boost his career. In 1989, Osmond had two chart-topping recordings, the first of which was being credited to a "mystery artist". From 1992-1997 he played Joseph in the Toronto production of Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Creator Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber, impressed by Osmond's talents and the show's long run, chose Osmond to do the 1999 film version (which also starred Sir Richard Attenborough as Jacob). On November 24, 2009, two weeks shy of his 52nd birthday, Osmond was crowned Dancing with the Stars season nine champion

1. COULD IT BE I AM FALLING IN LOVE



[Songwriters: Steals, Melvin; Steals, Mervin H.;]


Could I be right, could I be right ?bout you, baby?
Could I be right, could I be right for sure?
Could I be right, could I be right ?bout you, baby?

Since I met you I've begun to feel so strange
Every time I speak your name
You say that you are so helpless too
That you don't know what to do

Each night I pray there will never come a day
When you up and take your love away
Say you feel the same way too and I wonder
What it is I feel for you?

Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love with you?
With you, with you

I don't need all those things that used to bring me joy
You made me such a happy boy
And honey, you'll always be the only one for me
Meeting you was my destiny

You can be sure I will never let you down
When you need me I?ll be around
And you'll always be the only one for me
Heaven made you specially

Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love with you?
With you, with you

With you, babe
Could I be right, could I be right ?bout you, baby?
Could I be right, could I be right for sure?
Could I be right, could I be right ?bout you, baby?

I'm in love with you, baby
Every time I see you
I'm in love with you, baby

Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love?
Could it be I'm falling in love with you?
With you, with you

With you, with you, with you

2. IN IT FOR LOVE


I've loved and I've lost
I've added the cost up
Now I want to live
Free to start all over
And if you say you will

I've nothing to promise
and all that I want is
To know we have this chance
We can make a different
If you'd just understand

That I'm in it for love
I'm not in it for the love of a stranger
There's no limit for us
Let the walls come tumbling down

You've sheltered your dreams
And what does it mean
To you if you can't say
You have someone to side with you
When you're going against the grave

I've been there before
but one things for sure
This time I need some help
This heart holds out for you
Waiting here for no one else

I'm in it for love
I'm not in it for the love of a stranger
Cause there ain't enough time
There ain't enough love to be found in this world
If we're in it for love
There can be no hurt harm or danger
There's no limit for us
Let the walls come tumbling down

You and me
Leaving our heart ache in the sand
the skies wide open this time
This time it's love
We're holding in our hands

I'm in it for love
I'm not in it for the love of a stranger
Cause there ain't enough time
There ain't enough love to be found in this world
If we're in it for love
There can be no hurt harm or danger
There's no limit for us
Let the walls come tumbling down

In it for love
In it for love

In it for love
Oh I'm in it for love
I'm in it for love
Nothing else but love

VIDEO I WILL NEVER FALL IN LOVE

3. ANY DREAM WILL DO


I closed my eyes
Drew back the curtain to see for certain
What I thought I knew
Far Far away
Someone was weeping
But the world was sleeping
Any Dream Will Do

I wore my coat
With golden lining
Bright colors shining
Wonderful and New
And in the East
The Dawn was breaking
And the world was waking
Any Dream Will Do

A Crash of Drums
A Flash of Light
My Golden Coat throughout a site
The Colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

May I return
To the beginning
The light is thinning
An the dream is too
The World and I
We are still waiting
And hesitating
Any Dream Will Do

A crash of Drums
A Flash of Light
My golden coat throughout a site
The colors faded into darkness
I was left alone

My I return
to the Beginning
The light is thinning
And the Dream is too
The World and I
We are still waiting
Still hesitating
Any Dream Will Do

4. SACRED EMOTIONS


[Songwriters: Rogers, Evan; Sturken, Carl;]



There's a candle I keep in my window
And it?s burning brighter tonight
Through the storm and the winds of change
I'm sure that you can see the light

I never wondered, I never gave up
'Cause a true heart never goes astray
Whatever road that you take leads you back to me
'Cause our love is too strong to slip away

Like a river flowing into the ocean
I can feel you coming back to me
?Cause our love is like a sacred emotion
And it's burning bright for the whole world to see

It won't be long before I hear
That knock on the door, that telephone call
If your journey takes you far away
I'll still catch you when you fall

Love's like a wheel turning round and round
The feeling fades but never dies
There'll never be any question or doubt in my mind
'Cause the answer's right there in your eyes

Like a river flowing into the ocean
I can fee you coming back to me
'Cause our love is like a sacred emotion
And it?s burning bright for the whole world to see

Whatever road that you take leads you back to me
?Cause our love is too strong to slip away

Like a river flowing into the ocean
I can fee you coming back to me
?Cause our love is like a sacred emotion
And it's burning bright for the whole world to see

5. WHEN I FALL IN LOVE

[Songwriters: Heyman, Edward; Young, Victor;]


When I fall in love it will be forever
Or I'll never fall in love

In a restless world like this is
Love is ended before it's begun
And too many moonlight kisses
Seem to cool in the warmth of the sun

When I give my heart it will be completely
Or I'll never give my heart
And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Then I'd fall in love with you

And the moment I can feel that you feel that way too
Is when I fall in love, when I fall in love
When I fall in love with you
Yeah, yeah

When I fall in love with you

6. SEASONS OF LOVE


[Songwriters: Larson, Jonathan D;]


Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Moments so dear
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure-measure a year

In daylights- in sunsets
In midnites- in cups of coffee
In inches- in miles
In laughter- in strife

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure a year in the life

How about love
How about love
How about love
Measure in love
Seasons of love
Seasons of love

Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Journeys to plan
Five hundred twenty-five thousand
Six hundred minutes
How do you measure the life
Of a woman or a man

In truth that she learns
Or in times that he cried
In bridges he burned
Or the way that she dies

Its time now to sing out
Tho the story never ends
Lets celebrate
Remember a year in the life of friends

Remember the love
Remember the love
Remember the love
Measure in love
Seasons of love
Seasons of love

7. SOLDIERS OF LOVE


[Songwriters: Rogers, Evan; Sturken, Carl;]



So you heard that I'm a rebel with a heart made of stone
I got a restless spirit that nobody can own
If a picture tells a story won't you listen to mine
I'm searching for the answer but it's so hard to find

You'll see much deeper when you read between the lines
'Cause there's a fire burning in my eye

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough
I am willing to fight 'cause I'm a soldier of love
Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough
It's a state of the heart, you're a soldier of love

I'm willing to fight

Love can be so heartless when you turn out the lights
A mutual surrender in the heat of the night
Life's an empty picture when you're living alone
And maybe that's the reason every heart needs a home

Each time I fall down, I get on my feet again
I'm gonna win this battle in the end

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough
I am willing to fight 'cause I'm a soldier of love
Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough
It's a state of the heart and you're a soldier of love

You'll see much deeper when you read between the lines
'Cause there's a fire burning in my eye

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough
I am willing to fight 'cause I'm a soldier of love
Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough
It's a state of the heart and you're a soldier of love

Sha la, la la, la la la, when the going gets rough
Sha la, la la, la la la, I'm a soldier of love
Sha la, la la, la la la, when the going gets rough
Sha la, la la, la la la, a soldier for your love

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough
I am willing to fight 'cause I'm a soldier of love
Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough
It's a state of the heart, you're a soldier of love

Like a thief in the night who can't get enough
'Cause I'm a soldier of love
Like a shot in the dark when the going gets rough

8. PUPPY LOVE


Songwriters: Anka, Paul;
And they called it puppy love
Oh, I guess they'll never know
How a young heart really feels
And why I love her so

And they called it puppy love
Just because we're in our teens
Tell them all, please tell them it isn't fair
To take away my only dream

I cry each night my tears for you
My tears are all in vain
I'll hope and I'll pray that maybe someday
You'll be back in my arms once again

Someone help me, help me, help me please
Is the answer up above
How can I, how can I tell them?
This is not a puppy love

Someone help me, help me please
Is the answer up above
How can I, how can I tell them?
This is not a puppy love

This is not a puppy love
This is not a puppy love
