Chris Rea - The Blue Cafe (Live 1998)
Показать описание
The Blue Cafe (Live at the Shepherd's Bush Empire in London 1998).
The Blue Cafe is the fourteenth studio album by British singer-songwriter Chris Rea, released on June 30, 1998.
A confident and consistent album, The Blue Cafe combines Rea's atmospheric songwriting with larger doses of his slide guitar playing than usual.
An overlooked talent of his, it underlies this collection of contemporary sounding songs rooted in dance beats and blues (a strange combination, but it works).
Two songs from different sides of the spectrum illustrate the album well: "Sweet Summer Day" is one of the best from a master of summer anthems ("On the Beach," "All Summer Long," etc.), while "Where Do We Go From Here?" is a bitingly perceptive indictment of the emptiness of consumer culture laid against a cool, smooth backing track.
All in all, this is one of Rea's most introspective albums and a strong addition to his catalogue.

Lyrics:
My world is miles of endless roads
That leaves a trail of broken dreams
Where have you been
I hear you say?
I'll meet you at the Blue Cafe
Because this is where the one who knows
Meets the one who doesn't care
The cards of fate
The older shows
To the younger one, who dares to take
The chance of no return
Where have you been?
Where are you going to?
I want to know what's new
I want to go with you
What have you seen?
What do you know that is new?
Where are you going to?
Cause I want to go with you
So meet me down at the Blue Cafe
The cost is great, the price is high
Take all you know, and say goodbye
Your innocence, inexperience
Mean nothing now
Cause this is where the one who knows
Meets the one that doesn't care
Where have you been?
I hear you say
I'll meet you at the Blue Cafe
So meet me at the Blue Cafe...
