Dale Bozzio & Missing Persons Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sweet scent of a gentle rain,
Will you ever come again?
Smooth skin, soft and white,
We lose ourselves within the night

Dance inside the dreamer's circle,
I'm waiting for you,
Escape the life of black and white,

I'm waiting for you

I wanna be the color that's in your life,
And you make love electrical,
Welcome to the festival (repeat)

Facing towards still rose dawn,
Intuition leads you on
You're all dressed up in dreams,
In a liquid limousine

Dance inside the dreamer's circle,
I'm waiting for you,
Escape your life of black and white,
I'm waiting for you

I wanna be the color that's in your life,
And you make love electrical,
Welcome to the festival (repeat)

Dance inside the dreamer's circle,
I'm waiting for you,
Escape your life of black and white,
I'm waiting for you

I wanna be the color that's in your life,
And you make love electrical,
Welcome to the festival (repeat)

Wanna be, the color, in your life,
'cause you make love electrical,
Welcome to, welcome to, welcome to the festival

I wanna be the color that's in your life,

And you make love electrical,
Welcome to the festival (repeat fade)

Overall Meaning

Day 3 was Bowie, U2, Missing Persons, Stevie Nicks, Berlin, The Pretenders, Joe Walsh, Quarterflash. I feel like there's a few more bands that played that day as well. We had a blast!

This live performance is so immaculate it sound exactly like the studio version only with more intricate drum fills. Saw this live on MTV when it first aired and they were like a side show... nobody gave a damn. All these years later and their performance stands equal to Pretenders, Bowie and U2 from that same festival. Amazing band. Spring Session M produced and mix by a guy named Ken Scott...yes the same Ken Scott that engineered a little known song called 'Hey Jude' for The Beatles. Of course Cucurullo went on to co-write and play on Duran Duran's "Ordinary World".

We took the Eighties for granted because of all the great bands! You HAD to have your chops together because of the two decades of AMAZING music that had just gone before.

After that it has never been the same.

@rulerofomicronpersei8

@headholio who’d want to stay current, with the pop crap we’re shown today, no self respecting person listens to that geh. TOh nonsense of today…puke.

Miley = not groundbreaking
Lady gagma = more crap
Barfy B = even MORE crap

That’s not music, that’s cookie cutter crap, those broads couldn’t carry a real tune if it had a 10 feet handle on it. They need a computer, to make their voices perfect, along with overproduced videos, nothing original about that.

@headholio

2y↑4

@MR. CHACHI if you think that' today's music is about Miley and lady Gaga you are oblivious to awhole world of great music out there. Look at the pop charts today and maybe you will gag, but look at the pop charts of the 70s and be even more nauseated. Maybe you want to say that the carpenters, the captain and tenielle, and the bee gees were the greatest music ever?
Pop music has never been an indicator of overall music quality in any era. In the old days, you were young and you could find the good stuff, but now you are old and lostt that ability.

Yep. And there's one common thread about Frank's Band Members. You did Not get to be a FZ Band Member if you weren't the Absolute Best and Cream of The Musical Crop.
Mediocre Musicians Need Not Apply.

They worked with him. Terry was his drummer for years. They were not his band.

I a metalhead was also in the 80s tended to bash New Wave music back in the day. When I look back now I realize how significant all these bands Are they really were ahead of their time and Dale is a great front woman I find myself going back I'm Pandora and listening to all these bands along with all the metal bands punk bands music truly fills your body will the feeling of empowerment that is what "words" are for. It is good to see that Dale is doing so well!!!

These guys had such an awesome and unusual sound. Nothing like them before or since. Perfect blend of keyboards and guitars with the drums driving the beat. The singer is great too. I think the guitarist went on to eventually play for Duran Duran? Correct me if I'm wrong on that.

so glad I was a teenager in the 80's. So much music. There might have been a lot of one hit wonders, but there were a thousand of them

@glennw9927

Surprised (due to my ignorance) how good they sound live . Obviously saw their videos on the mtv rotation back then but never realized how good they were as musicians and tight as a band. Drummer is great. Guitar sounds great live.
