Hollywood Nocturne
by
The Brian Setzer Orchestra
There's a place where you can go
Music's hot and lights are low
But there's something you should know
Before the night is through
'Neath a buzzing neon sign
Dressed in style so cool and refined
Stands a man from another time
Who's calling out to you
There in the night that has heard a thousand voices
Whispered a thousand names
Sang out a thousand love songs
He lives his Hollywood nocturne
There's a place he'd like to go
Where it's cool and lights are low
But the shadows won't let go
They dance and call his name
As he roams the streets at night
Haunted by this devil sight
There's a man in dark red light
Who's calling out to you
There in the night that has heard a thousand voices
Whispered a thousand names
Sang out a thousand love songs
He lives his Hollywood nocturne
His Hollywood nocturne
His Hollywood nocturne
It's a beautiful song; done in his usual fifties-influenced sound.
Many people don't realize just how great of guitarist he is.
If you play guitar, listen to his stuff. You'll be impressed, I'm sure.
Underneath all that slapback tape-echo drenched sound,
are some very good chops!
OK -time for bed!
