The CODiE Awards are annual awards given within the software industry. They are given by the Software and Information Industry Association for excellence in software development. There are awards in more than 75 categories.
The CODiE Awards program attempts to showcase the best software products and services and also honors excellence in corporate philanthropy. It is one of the most recognized peer-recognition awards in the software industry.
The name "CODiE" is derived from code, which relates to the instructions making up a computer program.
In 1986, the Excellence in Software Awards program was established by the Software Publishers Association (SPA). In 1999, the SPA merged with the Software and Information Industry Association (SIIA), so that the pioneers of the then-nascent software industry could recognize the best annual software products. In 1993, the Excellence in Software Award was renamed the CODiE Award.
Past winners include companies such as Adobe, Google, Jigsaw, Learnosity, Netsuite, Red Hat, Rosetta Stone, Salesforce.com, Digimind, Scribe Software, Triumph Learning, uCertify, Vocus, WSJ.com, Moove-iT, itslearning, and more.
Oh, you better be aware
There's nothing you can do
'Cause right from this moment
I can't take my eyes off of you
Yeah, I really gotta know
I want to make this real
Why should I pay just for something
I know, I can steal
But don't you worry
Why don't you stay for the night
It's the same old story
I'll love you till the morning light
But tomorrow you'll find your way home
And here I go again
I'll take it on the run
Dressed up n' ready for action
It won't take too long
If you wanna play the game
You gotta feel no shame
I'm burning with passions desires
Do you feel the same?
You better hurry
Why don't you stay for the night
It's the same old story
I'll love you till the morning light
But tomorrow you'll find your way home
Way home, way home
I can't think of no other but you in my lonely nights
I'm beggin' you honey, don't leave me this way
But don't you worry
Why don't you stay for the night
It's the same old story
I'll love you till the morning light
And you know, I'll make you feel alright
Don't ask yourself what's wrong or right
It's the same old story
Don't let us waist one more night
But tomorrow you'll find your way home
