Graças ao último Monday Metal resolvi cantar minhas dores de cotovelo imaginárias, encher o cabelo de laquê e transformar a coluna em Monday Hard Rock um pouquinho, porque vocês merecem essa diversidade. E vamos começar a fazer isso hoje.
A música que escolhi é daquelas que por acaso passam pelos meus ouvidos, e que eu agradeço infinitamente aos céus: Eyes of Love. Já se vão alguns anos desde que assisti o video oficial, video meio tosco por sinal, mas que me diverte muito, afinal até nisso hard rock e heavy metal se combinam. Cantada por Jeff Scott Soto, Eyes of Love tem a clássica alma sing-along, que te faz cantar o refrão desde o primeiro momento que você o escuta.
E quem diabos é Jeff Scott Soto? É um americano de descendência porto riquenha (!) que de vez em sempre faz shows no Brasil, vide esse ano, que ele desembarcou aqui com a turnê Damage Control. Originalmente vocalista da banda de hard rock Talisman -que terminou em 2007- ele assumiu o posto de vocalista de Yngwie Malmsteen nos dois primeiros álbuns, e também foi o substituto de Steve Augeri nas turnês de 2006/2007, quando vocalista do Journey contraiu uma grave infecção na garganta.
Nitidamente inspirado em Freddie Mercury, Jeff e eu fomos apresentados através de Eyes of Love. Gostei tanto que fui pesquisar pra saber quem era o cidadão cantando no video, de qual disco era a música, e terminei pedindo o download do Prism (2002) aqui, quando o blog ainda era voltado apenas de downloads. O responsável por atender o meu pedido foi o Wakashimazu (!!)
Nota: fica o link de uma resenha do Prism no Território da Música, que é curtinha, mas que eu acho que vale a pena ler
Então, depois de tantas coincidências que me fizeram lembrar dessa música já perdida na memória, espero que vocês gostem. Afinal, dizem que eu tenho a fama de não dar dicas musicais furadas, e essa é uma fama trabalhosa de manter.

Letra
Staring at the eyes
You tell me, you want everything that I have but
Every time I try to give all you do is bringing me down
You feed me your lines, lay your hands over me but
All I ever get from you, the feeling that you're running me 'round
Now I'm left thinking I'm better left going on my own
Tell me is it any wonder? (Is it any wonder at all?)
I don't really wanna go, but you forced me out the door
I'm not gonna let you take me under
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
Turn back the time to our simpler days when
A night seemed like forever, tommorrow an eternity
Was it all a waste of time, I don't really wanna say
But you gotta stop and wonder (Is it any wonder at all?)
Now I'm going with the flow, 'cause you forced me out the door
I could never let you take me under
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
When You staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
Now I should've known better
I believe it's true that love is blind
And you never, ever really know why
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
When You staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
(Staring at the eyes of love)
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
(Fall for the eyes of love)
You'll be falling for the eyes of love
You'll never know
You tell me, you want everything that I have but
Every time I try to give all you do is bringing me down
You feed me your lines, lay your hands over me but
All I ever get from you, the feeling that you're running me 'round
Now I'm left thinking I'm better left going on my own
Tell me is it any wonder? (Is it any wonder at all?)
I don't really wanna go, but you forced me out the door
I'm not gonna let you take me under
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
Turn back the time to our simpler days when
A night seemed like forever, tommorrow an eternity
Was it all a waste of time, I don't really wanna say
But you gotta stop and wonder (Is it any wonder at all?)
Now I'm going with the flow, 'cause you forced me out the door
I could never let you take me under
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
When You staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
Now I should've known better
I believe it's true that love is blind
And you never, ever really know why
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
When You staring at the eyes of love
Someday you'll wanna (Fall for the eyes of love)
And if I ever leave, you'll never know
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
One day you're gonna (Fall for the eyes of love)
I don't believe, you'll never know
(Staring at the eyes of love)
You'll be staring at the eyes of love
(Fall for the eyes of love)
You'll be falling for the eyes of love
You'll never know
