Vocalist Nina Miranda formed Smoke City around 1994 with former schoolmate Mark Brown and guitarist Chris Franck, formerly of the Brighton-based Brazilian percussion group Batu.

Smoke City are best known for their single Underwater Love, which was a major hit in 1996. The music video is notable for predating the film The Matrix in its use of bullet time motion.

In 1997 the band released their first album, Flying Away, which included several hits like Underwater Love and Mr. Gorgeous (and Miss Curvaceous).

While Flying Away was hard to classify because it had everything from light trip-hop to gentle guitar ballads, Smoke City's next album, Heroes of Nature (released in 2001), was considered too odd even by fans, combining even more styles and incorporating dance beats in some of the tracks. An extended version of Heroes of Nature had three more tracks than the original, one of them being a cover of John Lennon's famous song Imagine.

The group disbanded in 2002.

It's Amazing
Smoke City Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Mesmerized by your eyes
The window to your soul
In the match am I your goal?
Because I feel you so
You follow me to my dreams
And to my pillow seams
In the night I heard each and every word

It's amazing the way myself responds
To the slightest touch you give me
It's so hard for you always
And the place where I want to be is inside you

I dream I dream I dream
I dream I dream I dream
I dream I dream I dream

Mesmerized by your eyes
What secrets do you keep?
The language that you speak
Torments me in my sleep

It's amazing the way myself responds
To the slightest touch you give me
It's so hard for you always
And the place where I want to be is inside you

Your beau-ti-ful eyes I see you-and-your beauty inside
The touch of your voice,
I take it all, hear you
Talking in your language
Falling with the touch of you
Fully find my heart now
To wander by your big old
Tree-because

It's amazing the way myself responds
To the slightest touch you give me
It's so hard for you always
And the place where I want to be is inside you

It's amazing the way myself responds
To the slightest touch you give me

It's so hard for you always
And the place where I want to be is inside you
