Oldie but goodie: Self Control
El verano europeo de 1984 tuvo como himno este tema, compuesto e interpretado por el italiano Raf, al que Laura Branigan dio más visibilidad. Un clásico que también tocó Ricky Martin en los 90, y dice así:
Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
/
In the night, no control
Through the wall something’s breaking
Wearing white as you’re walkin’
Down the street of my soul
Through the wall something’s breaking
Wearing white as you’re walkin’
Down the street of my soul
/
You take my self, you take my self control
You got me livin’ only for the night
Before the morning comes, the story’s told
You take my self, you take my self control
You got me livin’ only for the night
Before the morning comes, the story’s told
You take my self, you take my self control
/
Another night, another day goes by
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to forget to play my role
You take my self, you take my self control
I never stop myself to wonder why
You help me to forget to play my role
You take my self, you take my self control
/
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never comes
/
A safe night, I’m living in the forest of my dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
/
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
/
Oh, the night is my world
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
City light painted girl
In the day nothing matters
It’s the night time that flatters
/
I, I live among the creatures of the night
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never knows
I haven’t got the will to try and fight
Against a new tomorrow, so I guess I’ll just believe it
That tomorrow never knows
/
A safe night, I’m living in the forest of a dream
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
I know the night is not as it would seem
I must believe in something, so I’ll make myself believe it
That this night will never go
/
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
You take my self, you take my self control
You take my self, you take my self control
