What a great collaboration!  Lovely song and really like the arrangement. 👍👏

I just love your vocal style, and when those strings come in, wow!

I want to be there - damn - you've both conjured up this seductive image so well...and I'm still in grey london at the end of it

Lovely track, makes me want to visit Seville :)

An excellent collaboration, enjoyed this one a lot.

wonderful - enjoying your songs this June evening, Peter x

You do get some nice surprises in this SC audiosphere of ours.

Imagine my delight when out of the blue Paco dropped me a note saying he'd composed some music and wondered if I might have a bash at some lyrics to match.  Of course, I jumped at the chance.

It transpired that his composition wasn't about anything in particular, rather, it was just one of those pieces that sort of emerge from a theme somewhere and grow into something very worthwhile but difficult to "place".  However, in our discussions about possible development ideas, I couldn't help but notice Paco's deep affection for his home city of Seville, and there’s only ever one outcome when England meets Seville…. 

Thank you so much, Paco, for the invitation to make some musical marmalade -  it was a hoot “jamming” with you!

Hot Seville Night

Softly as the dusk,
Certain as the easy sunrise
No need to rush,
Time stands still before your eyes.
Watching as the world plays out,
All its crazy bright tomorrows.
Ebbs and flows of human tide
Cool air hanging in the shadows,
Of a sweet perfumed, hot Seville night.

Orange blossom rain
Lazy jasmine musks the air
Aroma showers fall again
Kids with petals in their hair
In these melancholic times
Family smiles caught unaware
Bring sanity and peace of mind
Citrus blessings freely shared
In a sweet perfumed, hot Seville night.

Hot Seville Night
Senses move to ease the spirit
Wishing  I was back there in it,
My Hot Seville Night

Magic jacaranda sway
Violet through the Alcazar
Ancient histories replay
Laughter from the tapas bars
Rose flamenco passions flare
burning scarlet in delight
Festive celebration colours
Billow everywhere in sight
On a sweet perfumed, hot Seville night.

On a sweet perfumed, hot Seville night.......
