Give Me Some Kinda Magic
Dollar Lyrics

I was a young man choosing to be alone
You were a young girl breaking out on your own
It''s the change you made in me
And your smile can make me see
That it''s easy to try
When I know that you''re taking me high
(You take me higher and higher)

You give me some kinda magic

And I don''t wanna lose my hold on you
You give me some kinda magic
''cause you set me alight when I''m close to you
(It shows)

No good pretending don''t wanna be alone
(Don''t want to be on my own)
With you beside me we''re making our house our home
(We''re going to make our house our home)
It''s the way you look at me
''cause you set my spirits free
And it''s easy to try
When I know that you''re taking me high
(You take me higher and higher when)

Thinking of you girl I always do
You take up all my time
''cause you make me strong
And your magic lingers on
(You take me high so high)

I remember saying in the 80's, How 80's they looked.

Lee Engelsman

The simple answer is that the eighties were very tacky and gimmicky.

I used to think this song was produced by Trevor Horn, but it's all written and produced by themselves, which is not an easy feat. Really great 80s pop song.

I put this on a pub internet jukebox that played album tracks (from the Platinum Collection), thought the regulars would enjoy it, even if wasn't what they'd listen to ordinarily. When it appeared in the play queue, someone loudly exclaimed DOLLAR?! NOT HAVING ANY OF THAT F**** w***! GET RID OF IT!!! This is ace, so feelgood, and they wrote it themselves, even if David is a knob.

Oh David is so much the knob. I had the misfortune of meeting him backstage at a night club I worked in back in 1993. What an utter dick, so utterly full of himself. Thereza couldn't have been more charming and down to earth. A bit quiet to start but once you got her talking it was like night and day with "him". As far as personalities go they're like beauty and the beast with the only thing going for "it" was his singing voice. Thereza was still hot in 1993 as well. Despite being only 21 at the time, I would still have taken her home with me. lol

Kyach Distent

Right! In a world of fucking Madonna queen of the talentless skanks that reaches right through to today, embarrassing Bee Gees twatty songs, crap Madness, Adam and the Ants, Sting, Weller, Phil Collins, Cure, rap and all the crap of today, last year, last decade, last 2 decades, and every year, that spastic calls Dollar crap! Get a life you fucking prick, whoever you are. HE should be got rid of. Get a reality check, bimbo. If I could have MY way for all the times I have to endure shit like Slagdonna, Pariah Carey and all the shit of 90s-through to now, I COULD BE-AND FUCKING SHOULD BE-BLOODY GOD!

Theresa is the ultimate woman. Am I jealous. Yes is the dumb ass answer. I want to have all on my side . I am presented as the strong masculine presence I am . and I just get her like every other girl in my life.
