The Look of Love de Hal David e Burt Bacharach - Anita Baker


The look of love
Is in your eyes
The look your smile can't disguise
The look of love
Is saying so much more
Than just words could ever say
And what my heart has heard
Well it takes my breath away
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
You've got the look of love
It's on your face
A look that time can't erase
Be mine tonight
Let this be just the start
Of so many nights like this
Let's take a lovers vow
And then seal it with a kiss
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
Don't ever go
I can hardly wait to hold you
Feel my arms around you
How long I have waited
Waited just to love you
Now that I have found you
Don't ever go
Don't ever go
I love you so


O génio criador da dupla Hal David e Burt Bacharach já está por demais demonstrado.
Não escolhi Anita Baker por acaso. É, provavelmente, a maior diva da soul da era pós Aretha. Cada disco de Anita é um perfect love affair.
Neste tema tudo se conjuga. O romantismo arrebatado das palavras de Hal, o veludo da melodia de Burt e o calor e a técnica perfeita do instrumento divino que é a voz de Anita.
Para ouvir acompanhado


Os mais curiosos deverão procurar as versões de Nina Simone, Dusty Springfield e Isaac Hayes

Pronto! Assumo... a Anita Baker é-me demasiado delico-doce. Não consigo ir no seu cantar...

De todas as suas canções, há uma ( caught in the rapture, acho eu) que ainda ouço. O resto...não!
