The Amazing Rhythm Aces... one of my all time favorite bands.
The Amazing Rhythm Aces sing songs that tell stories. I often used to listen to their albums, one after another, for days, sometimes weeks on end.
When I hear certain songs like "When You Hear Your Spirit Talk" , it evokes many memories of days gone by; road trips, old loves, camp jobs.
Another of my favorite Aces tunes is "Burning the Ballroom Down" (unfortunately I can't find a live link to the song), so I'll cut and paste the lyrics so you get to read the story in the tune.
Hello girl, or should I say goodbye.
I know now, by the look in your eye.
Though the years have treated you well, and I know nobody else can tell.
I know why you're here.
You can't hide something like that from me my dear.
I can almost read your mind.
I can almost read your mind.
But you can't go, without saying goodbye and so, here we are.
Let's have one more drink they're closing the bar.
I remember how we danced and romanced and hovered on the brink of love when it was new.
I remember how we danced and romanced and hovered on the brink of love when it was new.
I thought my life began and ended in these dreams of loving you.
But then time began to make a difference between what we say and what we do.
But it's not everyone who gets a chance, to ever have a sweet romance.
Baby give me one more dance.
Let's have one more dance before burning the ballroom down.
I saw myself in your eyes, I was a king.
I saw myself in your eyes, I was a king.
You whispered in my ear and I could hear the angels sing.
And now you're smiling into my eyes, trying to deny all these things.
They're just memories to me now and everything has changed somehow,
but that don't break my vow...I loved you then, and baby I love you now.
I don't really want to know, so when you gotta go, just go, but baby please don't tell me no.
Let's have one more dance, one more dance--if it's not asking too much, give me one more dance.
Baby, won't touch me I'm burning down--one more dance--burning--give me one more dance--I'm burning down--one more dance, give me one more dance.
It might have to last me forever, I might never see you again.
One more dance, give me one more dance--Baby, help me burn it down--one more dance--just touch me, one more time...
