Testament to the line ‘It ain’t a London thing’, a sharp-spitting rhyme reeler is stepping forth from the smog-filled city of Brum in a bid to wake the game up. D.E.Velopment is known for his unique style and his semi chinese bars "voom mai long tong dang jong weng seng" from that point, via radio waves and various raves, an army of fans ate up DE’s catchy bars, mind-lingering lyrics and entertaining flow.
By now DE and fellow MC Badness had archived recognition outside of the Midlands and soon joined Terror Danjah's Aftershock Camp with hype growing, there was only one thing holding him back - his 666-styled pseudonym. DE was known as Devilman at the time but changed his name due to beef with another Devilman.

Eyes on You
d.e.velopment Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

My love must be a kind of blind love
I can't see anyone but you
Sha bop sha bop

Are the stars out tonight
I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
I only have eyes for you dear

The moon may be high
But I can't see a thing in the sky
I only have eyes for you

I don't know if we're in a garden
Or on a crowded avenue

You are here and so am I
Maybe millions of people go by

But they all disappear from view
And I only have eyes for you

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of d.e.velopment's song "Eyes On You" express an overwhelming devotion and infatuation to their love interest. The first line, "My love must be a kind of blind love," speaks to the irrationality of love and how it can cloud one's judgement. The following lines, "I can't see anyone but you, Sha bop sha bop," emphasize the singer's tunnel vision towards their love interest, blocking out everyone else around them.

The chorus of the song, "Are the stars out tonight, I don't know if it's cloudy or bright, I only have eyes for you dear," further emphasizes how the singer's focus is solely on their love interest. They do not perceive the world around them, as their love has taken over all their senses. The next verse, "The moon may be high, but I can't see a thing in the sky, I only have eyes for you," reiterates that the singer's love for their partner is all-consuming, and it overrides their perception of the world.

The final verse, "I don't know if we're in a garden or on a crowded avenue, you are here and so am I, maybe millions of people go by, but they all disappear from view, and I only have eyes for you," highlights the fact that even in a crowded avenue or a garden, the singer's focus remains entirely on their love interest. Millions of people may pass by, but the singer's love for their partner is so strong that nobody else matters. The song overall expresses the overwhelming feeling of being completely consumed by love and having one's vision and perception solely focused on one's partner.

Line by Line Meaning

My love must be a kind of blind love
I love you so much that I don't see anyone else.

I can't see anyone but you
You are the only one I can see and think about.

Are the stars out tonight
I don't know if it's dark outside.

I don't know if it's cloudy or bright
I don't have any idea about the weather.

I only have eyes for you dear
I cannot stop looking at you, my dear love.

The moon may be high
I don't know how high the moon is tonight.

But I can't see a thing in the sky
Nothing else matters when I am looking at you.

I only have eyes for you
There is no one else I can see, I only see you.

I don't know if we're in a garden
I don't know where we are right now.

Or on a crowded avenue
We could be out in the open or surrounded by people.

You are here and so am I
We are together, and that's all that matters.

Maybe millions of people go by
A lot of people could pass us by.

But they all disappear from view
But no one else means anything to me when I am with you.

And I only have eyes for you
I can't take my eyes off of you because you are the center of my universe.
