9. When Sly Calls (Don't Touch That Phone)
When Sly calls / The profit speaks
When Sly calls / The secret leaks
The sky falls / The dice are tossed
The war is won / The battle's lost
When Sly calls / It's thirteen takes
When Sly calls / The summer breaks
The sky falls / The rain begins
And on the box some Leon spins
To insulate me from the icy aftershock I feel each time
That Sly calls
(Don't touch that phone)
I am not here
I'm making my escape
The me you hear
Is magnetized on tape
I'm flying south
For snorkeling and sleep
(à Côte d'Azur)
Just leave your message when you hear the
(Don't you dare touch that phone)
When you hear the
(Don't you dare touch that phone)
When you hear the
(Don't you dare touch that phone
When you hear the beep
When Sly calls / It's tit for tat
When Sly calls / It's rat eat rat
The sky falls / The thunder claps
I see my house of cards collapse
When Sly calls / The muse gets jammed
When Sly calls / The best laid plans
The sky falls / The signal fades
l lock the door and shut the shades
And contemplate the crystal blue familiar funk I'm plunged into
When Sly calls

One of my favourites...
Same here, brother! Thank you for sharing the listening here, have a nice evening! 🎵✨✨✨
Walid, with your vast knowledge of MF’s music, can you tell me if I am missing any particular song with a real Bossa Nova feel? You have seen the songs I have done so far, RV in Rio, A rainy Night in Tokyo, Antonio’s Song...I still need to do Under The Sun...but can you think of any other obvious songs with beautiful melody/harmony/lyrics that I am missing?
Hi William, there are many, really! I appreciate your words, the list is long, do you know his latest album The Music in My Head? Check these:

ruclips.net/video/eJ1vJ2MtkUM/видео.html
... and I see they are not easy at all! But there is one with an upbeat called "Samba Partido Alto” and here its link:

Kind regards 🎵✨✨✨
There is another song that has a very beautiful and interesting Bossa Nova inside it that starts seriously at time 1:34, it is called "I love Lucy" from his amazing album Dragonfly Summer:

Very well done video for a decidedly mysterious and intriguing song from way back. I like how you pointed out the present day obsession with phones which was not a thing back when Michael Franks released this song and album.

Years ago this was the first MF track I heard on a WRVR recording. Jazz station in New York.
Later I ordered and bought some LPs because they weren't available in my country, Chile.
This video, and all of them, are great. Very good.
Congratulations Walid 👍✌️💫
Thx, brother! Really much appreciated! MF is one stand-alone phenomenon in our universe! 🎵🎶✨🥂
