Fancy made a comeback in 1998 with the remix of his biggest hit Flames Of Love. It didn't take long to captivate audiences around Europe once again. That year Fancy released Hit Party with remixes of his old hits and some new compositions. Only a year later another album D.I.S.C.O. was released and received very good reviews from the fans since most songs were based on an old Fancy formula which made him a star in the '80s. Then came the album Locomotion in 2001.
The second Fancy (http://myspace.com/welovefancy) is a flamboyant three-piece outfit from the notorious riot zones in the working-class suburbs of Paris.
Mixing AC/DC and T-Rex with the glitter ball sparkle of disco, Fancy comes armed with loads of make-up, feather boas, killer tunes at the ready, and a mountain of glowing press in France - including the "Most Entertaining Group" award from the French newspaper Liberation. Onstage, Fancy has supported MC5, TV on the Radio, Daft Punk and The Rapture.
FANCY also co-wrote the recent Justice hit ‘D.A.N.C.E.’.
“Above all, we’re about making love”, says their singer and resident rock god/dess Jessie Chaton.
The third Fancy is a British white funk band of the 1970's most famous for their cover of the Trogg's "Wild Thing," a single which went gold in the U.S. Former Penthouse pet Helen Court sang steamily, Rick Fenwick ex-of the Spencer Davis Group played guitar, Mo Foster bass, Henry Spinetti drums and Alan Hawkshaw keyboards. Fancy released several subsequent albums replacing Court with Annie Cavanaugh from the cast of Hair and Jesus Christ Superstar, but failed to regain the same success.
The fourth Fancy is a San Jose, CA based synth pop band that formed immediately after the dissolution of Volvox. Fancy eventually evolved into the solo project of Proton Pigeon.
After Midnight
Fancy Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
It beats like heart with a magic spell
Fever spreading making us so hungry
And such a night with angel spell
Be - you
Play the game
Don't ask
Eyes - be
In the streets
Heart love
Inside the sheets
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
That's when you fly
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
Higher then I
Hot shot lady looking for sensation
You can't make my dreams come true
What I need's real love and fascination
What you're gonna get for I will go with you
Will - you
On back seat
Rap - dance
Bodyheat
Me - go
On that skin
Your eyes
Black as ink
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
That's when you fly
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
Higher then I
Will - you
On back seat
Rap - dance
Bodyheat
Me - go
On that skin
Your eyes
Black as ink
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
That's when you fly
Hot time in the city
After midnight after midnight
Higher then I
The lyrics of Fancy's song "After Midnight" describe the allure of a city like New York at night, when anything can happen and desires can run wild. The fast-paced energy of the city is compared to a beating heart with a magic spell, and the feverish excitement spreads like a hunger. It's a night of angelic spells and mysterious encounters. The chorus reinforces the idea that the city truly comes alive after midnight and that's when one can really rise to new heights.
As the song continues, we learn about the main character's desire for genuine love and fascination, rather than just cheap thrills. They meet a "hot shot lady" who promises to fulfill their desires, but the main character is hesitant. Finally, they give in to temptation and the song finishes with a repetition of the chorus.
Overall, "After Midnight" portrays the irresistible energy of a city at night, and the contrast between longing for something real and giving in to momentary pleasure. The lyrics are filled with sensual imagery and convey the sense of letting go and indulging in the moment.

this guy right here. Epitome of 80's disco. His records were hard to find in my city and I first heard slice me nice at a high school dance in 84. took me a couple of years to find Contact at a local import store but it was one of my most played albums. Lady of Ice, Bolero, Chinese eyes... ahh the memories. Thank you sir and I look forward to hearing your new album.
