With a fleeting smile below the lazy eyes And the face that's not attempting to disguise. It's an open invitation showing all the signs "Sample my supply" And the fingers touch her hand below the lace, She suggests a later time another place. He accepts her invitation "Wanna spend some time?" Written on her face. Her stiletto heels go clicking through his head, With the glossy invitation he mis-read. And you'd think he couldn't fail to read between the lines, Plays the fool instead.

@jendilaize072792 God bless you! The lyrics make me melt more than the video!

Shakatak... in the 80's one of the bands that really inspired coverbands to develop

in to a higher level as a band but also the individual skills of the band members.

Their way of bringing and combinate funk/fushion/jazzfunk music in to the pop and Top 40 markett was really a nice experience if you were a musician in those days.

I really learned a lot from bands like Shakatak,Level 42,Mezzoforte,because their top 40 hits ...i had to play them and they forced me in to expanding my skills

@bassguitaro I knew it, Level 42! Mezzoforte is not a bad name, either.
