Music #12

My first impressions of Jamiroquai go back some years ago, 1998 when the american version of "Godzilla" came out and I heard "Deeper Underground" and that song just stuck in my head. Another soundtrack song is "Everybody's going to the Moon" from Don Bluth's "Titan A.E." (the soundtrack is among my favourites, it will do boubt appear in some of the next Music rubric issues) His last album, "Dynamite" is awesome, I especially enjoy "Hot Tequila Brown". I find the funky/jazzy/disco/chill-out sound relaxing and somehow carefree, the lyrics are quite nice too...

Cosmic Girl

I've must have died and gone to heaven
Cos it was a quarter past eleven
On a Saturday in 1999
Right across on where I'm standing
On a dance floor she was landing
It was clear that she was from another time
Like some Baby Barbarella
with the stars as her umbrella
She asked me if I liked to magnetise
Do I have to go star-trekking
Cos it's you I should be checking
So she laser beamed me with her cosmic eyes

[Chorus]
She's just a cosmic girl from another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world
Putting me in ectasy
Transmitting on my frequency
She's cosmic

I'm scanning all my radars
Well she said she's from a quasar
Forty thousand million light years away
It's a distant solar system
I tried to phone but they don't list 'em
So I asked her for a number all the same
She said, step in my transporter so I can teleport ya
All around my heavenly body
Oh, this could be a close encounter
I should take care not to flounder
Sends me into hyperspace when I see her pretty face

[Chorus]
She's just a cosmic girl from another galaxy
My heart's at zero gravity
She's from a cosmic world
Putting me in ectasy
Transmitting on my frequency
She's cosmic
(Sends me into hyperspace when I see her pretty face)x8

[Outro]
She's just a cosmic girl
From another galaxy
Transmitting on my frequency
Yeah cosmic, oh
Can't you be my cosmic woman?
I need you, I want you, to be my cosmic girl for the rest of time (fade)
Oh, i'm loosing my mind on my cosmic girl Yeah !
