"Like when wuuz together" & "Feeling your touch on my fayce". And this is the second favourite? There's high comedy value on show from the off, what with his amusing mis-pronunciations, Malta Julie style falsetto whimper, and the manner in which it has got gay men damp across Europe. This is a tragic Euro dance track, and why & how & when someone decided it deserved odds of 6-1 is one of the great enigmas of our time. The video consists of effeminate Mihai clad in a white jumper being crammed in a dark corridor with a freak circus. I suppose we can expect Mihai pawing at oiled up strongman, whilst the snake lady, the fire-eater, and the Mr Marceau look on jeasously in the background. Such are the vagaries of Eurosong.
"The bearded lady in dictionary corner"
Captain Caveman
Mihai knows his 70's cartoon onions: "Captain Caveman could do it all…he was able to fly, pulled through the air by his club as he was. The end of his club could also open to produce virtually any gadget he needed. Cave Bird lived in the club, and appeared to maintain these devices. His powers had an unfortunate tendency to give out at the worst possible moments - this may be a side-effect of his lengthy frozen hibernation. Shouting his name out seemed to help him renew his abilities. Caveman's fur also seemed to serve as a storage space for an incredible number of things -by reaching into his chest hair he could produce almost anything. He had ladies forever at this beck and call. Chicks dig hairy men!"
Tornero
I'm keeping your smile on my mind every day
I'm feeling your touch on my face, even while you're away
Like when was together in that dream that could've been so right, hey
Like when was together in that dream that could've been so right
Tornero, tornero
La mia vita ti daro
Tornerai, tornerai
Mia per sempre tu sarai
I wonder what I should feel, so empty these days
I wonder what I should feel now, while you're away
We'll dance together in that dream that could've been so right, hey
We'll dance together in that dream that could've been so right
Tornero, tornero
La mia vita ti daro
Tornerai, tornerai
Mia per sempre tu sarai
I'm keeping your smile in my mind
I'm feeling your touch on my face
And I wonder what I didn't know
And I wonder why, why I didn't know
And I wonder why I didn't know
Tornero, tornero
La mia vita ti daro
Tornerai, tornerai
Mia per sempre tu sarai
Italian chorus translated:
I'll come back, I'll come back
I'll give my life to you
You'll come back, you'll come back
You'll be forever mine
