Eydie Gormé - Blame it on the bossa nova

THE DANCE OF LOVE

Hoy se cumplen seis años del fallecimiento a los 84 de la cantante estadounidense Eydie Gormé (New York City, 16-8-1928 / Las Vegas, Nevada, 10-8-2013). Blame it on the bossa nova, composición de Cynthia Weill (letra) y Barry Mann (música), contenida en el álbum del mismo título de 1963, supuso el mayor hit internacional de su carrera, alcanzando el nº 1 en Australia, Sudáfrica, Alemania y Suecia, así como el nº 7 en las listas de Billboard.



Blame it on the bossa nova  (lyrics)

I was at a dance when he caught my eye
Standin' all alone lookin' sad and shy
We began to dance, swaying' to and fro
And soon I knew I'd never let him go

Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well
Oh, it all began with just one little dance
But then it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Now was it the tune?)
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova
(The dance of love)

Now I'm glad to say I'm his bride to be
And we're gonna raise a family
And when our kids ask how it came about
I'm gonna say to them without a doubt

Blame it on the bossa nova with its magic spell
Blame it on the bossa nova that he did so well
Oh, it all began with just one little dance
But then it ended up a big romance
Blame it on the bossa nova
The dance of love

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Now was it the tune? )
Yeah, yeah, the bossa nova
(The dance of love)

(Now was it the moon?)
No, no, the bossa nova
(Or the stars above ?)
No, no, the bossa nova
