Could It Be Magic
Artist: Donna Summer
Spirits move me every time I'm near you
Whirling like a cyclone in my mind
Oh Sweet Peter, angel of my lifetime
Answer to all answers I can find
Baby, I want you, come, come, come into my arms
Let me know the wonder of all of you
Baby, I want you now, now, now, and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?
Oh hold on to me
Don't let go
Come into my life
Dont't let go
oh....
Baby, take me high upon a hillside
High up where the stallion meets the sun
I could love you, build my world around you
Never leave you till my life is done
Baby, I love you, come, come, come into my arms
Let me know the wonder of all of you
And baby, I want you now, now, oh, now, oh now and hold on fast
Could this be the magic at last?
Could it be magic?
Come, c'mon, c'mon, come oh-oh come into my arms
Oh, let me know the wonder of all of you, all of you
Baby, I want you now, now, oh now, oh now and hold on fast
Oh, could this be the magic at last?
ould it be magic?
Come, c'mon, c'mon, come oh-oh come into my arms
Oh, let me know the wonder of all of you
Baby, I want you now, now, oh now, oh now and hold on fast
Oh, could this be the magic at last?
Could it be magic?
Could It Be Magic
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaJump
"Could It Be Magic" is a song by Adrienne Anderson and Barry Manilow. It was included on Manilow's 1973 debut album, Barry Manilow.
Due to its popularity, it was released as a single in 1975, two years after it had originally been recorded, where it reached #6 in the United States.
Manilow's recording begins and ends with an excerpt of Frédéric Chopin's Prelude in C Minor, Opus 28, Number 20. The whole song is based on the harmonic scheme of Chopin's prelude. The "sweet Melissa" is a nod to singer Melissa Manchester.
The song has been covered by a number of other artists over the years, most successfully by Donna Summer in 1976 and UK boy band Take That in the early 1990s. Manilow himself re-recorded an up-tempo version of the song in 1993, using the original orchestration of brass and strings combined with new drums, bass and synthesizers, and included it on the album Greatest Hits: The Platinum Collection. An extended remix of the 1993 version was issued as a promotional 12" single.
Donna Summer version
Just one year after Manilow's original version was released as a single Donna Summer recorded a disco version of the track and included it on her second international album, Love Trilogy, and took it to number three on the US Dance chart in 1976.[1] The song also entered the UK single chart where it stayed for seven weeks (peak point #40) |
