MUSICIANSHIP AT ITS HEIGHT

Son un dúo suizo de los años 80, un one-hit wonder, porque sólo se les recuerda por esta canción: pero amigos, ¡qué canción! En la estela de Al Stewart pero con una actualización a lo Ultravox, y un toque irresistible de melancolía y sofisticación.. como hoy estoy un poco tontorro -quizá porque se me han vuelto a perder las gafas- ahí va, para todos vosotros, y coronada con el increíble comentario que han dejado sobre ella en youtube: ¡ole por quien lo escribió, un tal equesfuscus hace sólo seis días!:
"This song exhibits some of the finest instrumental musicianship out there. I'm open-minded, and enjoy music from across the decades. But listen to the clarity of the playing. Notice the precision and deftness of the acoustic guitar, the brilliance and control of the piano, the tone of the soprano sax, the timing of the percussion, and even the lightness of the harp. This is musicianship at its height."

THE CAPTAIN OF HER HEART / DOUBLE

It was way past midnight and she still couldn't fall asleep. This night the dream was leaving, she tried so hard to keep. And with the new day's morning she felt it drift away. Not only for a cruise, not only for a day. Too long ago, too long apart, she could not wait another day for the captain of her heart.
As the day came up, she made a stop. She stopped waiting another day for the captain of her heart.
Too long ago, too long apart she could not wait another day for the captain of her heart.Too long ago, too long apart she could not wait another day for the captain of her heart. As the day came up, she made a stop. She stopped waiting another day for the captain of her heart. Too long ago, too long apart, she could not wait another day for the captain of her heart.
