Paolo Nutini - Candy (Live) ~ Las Vegas 8/15/08

Paolo Nutini singing Candy at the Hard Rock Hotel Las Vegas on August 15, 2008.

Lyrics (thanks to Paolo's Forum at www.paolonutini.com):

CANDY

I was perched outside in the pouring rain
Trying to make myself a sail
Then I'll float to you my darlin'
With the evening on my tail
Although not the most honest means of travel
It gets me there nonetheless

'Cause I'm a heartless man at worst, babe
And a helpless one at best

Darling I'll bathe your skin
I'll even wash your clothes
Just give me some candy
Before I go

Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes
And lay you down on your rug
Just give me some candy
After my heart

Oh, and I've tried and tried explaining
But to her it plays out all the same
When no matter what I give her
It gets held against my name

I wouldn't change nothing about you baby
But I guess I've taken quite enough
'Cause I'm that stain there on your bedsheet
You're the diamond in my rough

Darling I'll bathe your skin
I'll even wash your clothes
Just give me some candy
Before I go

Oh, darling I'll kiss your eyes
Lay you down on your rug
But give me some candy
After my heart (2x)

Oh, and I'll be there waiting for you
Oh, I'll be there waiting for you
I'll be there waiting for you
Oh, I'll be there waiting for you
Oh, I'll be there waiting for you
Oh, then I'll be there waiting for you
I'll be there waiting for you
Oh, then I'll be there waiting on you
I'll be there waiting for you
I'll be there waiting for you

Man, how annoying are the stupid people who just won't shut up at a concert?! Go to a fucking bar if you wanna "chitchat"... I can't imagine how annoying it must be for the performing artist.

All I can say is--Thank Goodness there are lots more superb postings here of this fantastic song--not taking away from the "poster" here who has given what would be a great video if it wasn't from the over-zealous audience,lol!!!

I was in LA at this time & was disappointed I could not go to Vegas to see Paolo. You are correct trevtrash about the lack of respect in some. I like that "big gobs"; excellent description of annoying, stupid people.
