MISS MYSTERY

Song inspired by the historical record of a beautiful young woman who was the cause of a lot of trouble in a 15th century Andalusian village, Andalucia, Spain. (full lyrics below)

Dancers: Antonio Gades (1936, Elda Alicante, 2004, Madrid); Cristina Hoyos Panadera (1946, Seville Spain)

Seguiriyas*

Seguiriyas have very few lyrics and lots of wailing and are difficult to interpret. They reflect the suffering of human relationships, love and death.

LYRICS

ABOVE THE STREET I LISTEN TO YOU

IN THE FAINTED HEAT IN THE MORNIN’ DEW

THE SKY IS COLD IN THE RAINY NIGHT

RUN TO YOU TRY TO FIGHT

BLACKENED GOWN FOOLIN AROUND

SNAKIN’ CHARM, I WON’T DO YOU HARM

A THOUSAND YEARS YOU’RE CARRIED ABOUT

A THOUSAND EYES THAT FOLLOW YOU OUT

MISS, MISS MYSTERY

STUCCO BLOCK, DEIGN TO TALK

WINDOW PANE, GENTLY VAIN

THE HILL TOPS CALL TO THE STREET BELOW

COBBLE STONES, PLEASANT GROANS

CORRUPTED HEADS, LOAVES OF BREAD

FLUNG TO THE FUTURE, TO THE EDGE OF DARK

PLAYERS FALL, AWAIT YOUR CALL

STONES ARE LAID, DARK CHARADE

THE STREETS ARE FULL, DREAD THE BULL

SOUND IN FLIGHT YOURS TONIGHT

fTHE HILLTOPS CALL TO THE STREETS BELOW

COBBLE STONES, PLEASANT GROANS

A THOUSAND HEARTS

A THOUSAND HEARTS-my first music iPhone video - dance sequences filmed at the Center Stage Dance Studio and Pacific Performing Arts center, Hilo Hawaii and at the University of Hawaii, Megan Kemata featured in the latter.
