Post by: Mimmo on June 06, 2010, 05:10:52 PM

Very Happy to post this song here in the finished thread.
Thanks to both Paul and Billy for their part in it



                                  Aint that Amazing

 Music and Vocals: Domenic Mercurio  (Mimmo)
 Lyrics :               Paul Dampsey
 Arrangement
 and Production:    Billy Playle


Ain't that amazing
The way you glide tonight
Across the floor
You've got everyone's eye
You're hard to ignore

Please
forgive me for staring
I can't help myself
but you're so impressive
 like everyone else
I'm lost in your magic


The orchestra's playing
They are playing for you
What else can they do
Ain't that amazing
They are all gazing
At you
Yeah, ain't that amazing

please grant me pardon
if I ask you to dance
Just a few turns
Around the shining floor
Then maybe a few more

Forgive me
 I think I'm in love
 now how about you
Just give it a chance
You never know
What we'll get into

The orchestra's playing
They are playing for you
What else can they do
Ain't that amazing
They are all gazing
At me and you
Yeah, ain't that amazing

And here is the Italian version

                                                     Interessante
E' interessante
Il ballo che tu fai
Di qua e di la
E' impossibile ignorare
Ti guardano tutti

Perdonami se resto anch'io
A guardare te
Tu sei interessante
E come gli altri io
Mi perdo nella tua magia

        L'orchestra che suona
Sta suonando per te
Altro non fa
E' interessante
E ti guardano ballare
Si sei affascinante


Ti piacerebbe
Ballare un po con me
Per qualche minuto
Forse un po di piu'
In questo posto

Perdonami ma mi piaci tanto
Lo senti anche tu
Possible sara'
Ma non si sa'
Che cosa mai accadra'

        L'orchestra che suona
Sta suonando per noi
Alro non fa
E' interessante
E ci guardano ballare
Si sei affascinante
E' interessante

Thanks for the Italian version Mimmo,

I can't speak the language, but love to hear the words. My ancestral home is in Montagano, Italy - though they came to New York around 1890.

You, Paul, and Billy have a nice, fun song here :)


Ciao,

John

Thanks John
I have an Idea were Montagano is situated, my wife is from that same area, the name of her town is Ripabottoni ( Campobasso Province)   I've never been there. I'm from a bit further south, Calabria region.
