The Blue Nile - Let's Go Out Tonight
The Blue Nile - Let's Go Out Tonight - this song has everything - Paul Buchanan's classic vocal, wonderful developing melody, poignant lyric, exquisite arrangement, and for me the added bonus of a deep personal connection. It's a classic vignette of the timeless tragedy of a failing relationship.
If, in the event that some heartbreaking soulful female asked me out on a Saturday night by singing this, and if I actually wanted a good time and not a metaphysical experience, I might just say no.
Make sure look up more from Paul Buchanan the Scots singer. He's one of the best singers I've ever heard. The images are by American artist Edward Hopper, 1882 - 1967.
