D… Read Full Bio ↴Laura Fygi (born August 27, 1955, in Amsterdam) is a Dutch singer.
Daughter to a Dutch father, a manager at Philips, and an Egyptian mother, a belly dancer by profession, Fygi lived with her parents in South America for the first eight years of her life.
Between 1987 and 1991, she was a member of popular Dutch girl-band, Centerfold. During performances, the trio dressed themselves in sexy lingerie. They had hits in the Netherlands and all over Europe, and were equally famous in Japan.
In 1991, the ladies of Centerfold stopped performing and Fygi (together with Rowan Moore) started a band called The Backlot. After one performance in Dutch theatre Paradiso, an album was expected, but Mercury Records had already asked Fygi to make a solo album. This first album, Introducing Laura Fygi, comprised mostly jazz numbers, and was produced by Ruud Jacobs. In the album, Fygi was accompanied by celebrated Belgian musician Toots Thielemans.
Dindi
Laura Fygi Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With faraway clouds just wandering by
Where do they go
Oh! I don't know, don't know...
Wind that speaks to the leaves
Telling stories that no one believes
Stories of love
Belong to you and me
Oh! Dindi
If I only had words I would say all the beautiful
Things that I see when you're with me
Oh, my Dindi
Oh, Dindi
Like the song of the wind in the trees that's how my
Heart is singing, Dindi
Happy, Dindi, when you're with me
I love you more each day, yes I do, yes I do
I'd let you go away if you'd take me with you
Don't you know, Dindi
I'd be running and searching for you like a river
That
Can't find the sea
That would be me
Without you, Dindi
The lyrics to Laura Fygi's song Dindi paints a beautiful image of the vast and endless sky and the wind speaking to the leaves. The lyrics show that the things we see in nature are so beautiful and worthy of admiration, but so often, we don't have the words to express them. However, the singer seems to have found the right words for the one she loves, Dindi. As she spends time with Dindi, she sees all these beautiful things around her, and her heart is filled with joy and love. The lyrics also suggest that the love between the singer and Dindi is so strong that she would go wherever Dindi goes. Without Dindi, the singer feels lost and incomplete.
