      Ingrid Rodriguez Sé a lo que te refieres, estos temas enamoran y ruborizan tu corazón de pasión. Una tarde de otoño, acurrucados en la cama después de hacer el amor, mientras el té hierve y la noche te acaricia al caer sin incidentes.

    I’ve loved this band since I was a teenager here in Tempe AZ; I’m 40 now. I still can’t believe she died. I’ve lost my folks & my entire family, but her voice will always carry me…coincidence that her name is Carey?! Love from Aidan in AZ TO ALL who appreciate this lovely Scottish ensemble! Rip Carey.

    I'm 59. When this music came out, I was going through a divorce, very much preoccupied, and not really listening to music much. So I never got to experience it. Flash forward to this month, and my 30 year old daughter is listening to it. She says, "Dad, have heard of this group? I bet you would like them." She was correct. I'm very happy to learn of them. For me, It's a new band, that my first born discovered. I'm very much hooked.

    Wow after hearing just three songs, this band has really grabbed me! Overall the sound strikes me as being similar to the Phil Spector "Wall of Sound". Musically it makes me think of The Association and other groups with soft sounds from around 1966 and 67. Keep up gang!

    Lyrics
    I'm going on a date tonight
    To try to fall out of love with you
    I know, I know this is a crime
    But I don't know what else to do
    My love, you're in a magazine
    My love, you're doing fine, you're on TV
    You pull my heart out and then you run away
    From Chicago to Cleveland you leave me pain
    You leave me pain
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother to hear you sing
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother
    On the bus radio, "Fifty ways to leave your lover alone"
    I laughed at the irony
    But life is stupid, the irony all lost on me
    It got lost on me
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother to hear you sing
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother
    You challenged me to write a love song
    Here it is, I think I got it wrong
    I focused on the negative
    The pain was too much to write and sing
    Oh, it was not a nice incentive
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my other to hear you sing
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my other to hear you sing
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother to hear you sing
    When you're lucid you're the sweetest thing
    I would trade my mother
    But she don't know just how far I'd go
    Would I walk for a hundred miles for a glimpse of your northern smile?
