.. on jazz nu när hösten smyger sig på. Förra veckans konsert med Oddjob på Nef blev en verkligen en katalysator. Nytt blandat med gammalt i cd:n och Angel Eyes är en klassiker som Sting sjunger på soundtracket i filmen Leaving Las Vegas( för övrigt Nicolas Cage kankske bästa film) som jag aldrig tröttnar på. Jag gillar texten och Sting har verkligen med sin mycket enkla och avskalade sång ändå slaget huvudet på spiken med sin tolkning. Håll till godo:
Have you ever had the feeling
That the world's gone and left you behind
Have you ever had the feeling
That you're that close to losing your mind
You look around each corner
Hoping that she's there
You try to play it cool perhaps
Pretend that you don't care
But it doesn't do a bit of good
You got to seek till you find
Are you never unwind
Try to think
That love is not around
Still it's uncomfortably near
My old heart
Ain't gaining no ground
Because my angel eyes ain't here
Angel eyes
That old devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say
That my love's misspent
Misspent with angel eyes tonight
So drink up all you people
Order anything you see
Have fun you happy people
The drink and the laugh's on me
Pardon me
But I gotta run
The fact's uncomfortably clear
Gotta find
Who's now number one
And why my angel eyes ain't here
Tell me why my angel eyes ain't here
Excusez moi my angel eyes ain't here
Excuse me while I disappear
