He and his band performed in most of the clubs and larger venues in the Hollywood area at the peak of the 80's hip-hop/punk era. So many songs and acts he originated are now mis-connected to other stars, but Mick Smiley was and is always one of the most wonderful and original artists in the Rock/Punk/songwriter era of the 1980's.
Along with his drummer Steve and Guitarist Kurt Kearns, Mick Smiley created a truly original sound, and a fun and sly persona that has never been recreated.

Mick Smiley Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You see me, I see you
In a crowd, see my face
I love you
Take my hand, walk with me
Love you do will always be
[Incomprehensible] can come true
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic, magic
Here for you, that's what you said
I never felt like this woman, any woman
Strangers meet, strangers dream
Some call it love, I call it magic
Now I'm in you and it feels so right
So hold on, hold on tight
Yes, it's true
I believe, believe in you
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic, magic
My baby told me once
And my baby told me twice
My baby told me three times
Three times nice
Please
Please
Please, let's make some
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic
Magic, magic
Turned my hand and walked with me
She said, "I'll tell you, Mickey, I do believe
In the power of love, your magic wand's
The thing that makes me sing this song"
Please
Please
Please
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic
I believe it's magic, magic
Magic, magic

Ok this is too cool. Grew up on the Ghostbusters version. Had no idea this existed and absolutely love it.

Someone else's comment elsewhere:
If 1st half was a Ghostbusters quote: "This man has no dick."
If 2nd half was a Ghostbusters quote: "I love this town!!"
Not mine or agreed, just thought it was funny.
@soundseeker63
Wow it really is a song of two halves, a Jekyll and Hyde of a track. Slow and sensual one half, rhythmic, danceable and dark the other. It was a great choice for the ghostbusters movie, it really energised that scene and added suspense and electricity to the excellent visuals.
