B i o g r a p h y Though based in London, the trip-hop trio Smoke City created music with a distinctively Brazilian, bossa nova-influenced sound — no surprise given that vocalist Nina Miranda's childhood was divided between the UK and South America. Miranda formed Smoke City with former schoolmate Mark Brown, with whom she shared an affection not only for the music of Santana and Gilberto Gil but also classic '70s funk; rounding out the line-up with guitarist Chris Franck, formerly of the Brighton-based Brazilian percussion group Batu, the group issued a handful of indie-label singles before signing to Jive Records in the fall of 1995. Their debut LP Flying Away followed two years later, and was highlighted by the single "Underwater Love," which became a European hit thanks to its use in a commercial campaign for Levi's jeans. |

Underwater
Love
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it
O que que é esse amor, d'água
Deve sentir muito parecido a esse amor
This is it
Underwater love
It is so deep
So beautifully liquid
Esse amor com paixão, ai
Esse amor com paixão, ai que coisa
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it
O que que é esse amor, d'água
Eu sei que eu não quero mais nada
Follow me now
To a place you only dreamt of
Before I came along
When I first saw you
I was deep in clear blue water
The sun was shining
Calling me to come and see you
I touched your soft skin
And you jumped in with your eyes closed
And a smile upon your face
Você vem, você vai
Você vem e cai
E vem aqui pra cá
Porque eu quero te beijar na sua boca
Que coisa louca
Vem aqui pra cá
Porque eu quero te beijar na sua boca
Ai que boca gostosa
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
After the rain comes sun
After the sun comes rain again
Cai cai e tudo tudo cai
Tudo cai pra lá e pra cá
Pra lá e pra cá
E vamos nadar
E vamos nadar e tudo tudo dá
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it slipping all over me
This must be underwater love
The way I feel it
Oh oh d'água we are full
Underwater
Oh underwater love
This underwater love
This underwater love
Underwater love
*** Thanx a lot to Nuno who corrected a mistake ***
Je suis totalement obsédée
Doucement s'il te plait
Pourquoi que tu es si méchant
Mon terribly plus bel enfant
Méchant toi tu es quand je te vois
Je te veux plus que hier
Yeah it's true I want you
You're a bad one through and through
Nunca ninguém me tentou assim
Tão lindo e tão ruim
Belo anjo, de um lando
E do outro, o diabo
Malandro e anjo está me derretendo
Your kiss is my wish
Take me to your hell
I feel in a devil of a mood
Been instilled by the devil
Wicked heart brings me so much pain
And pleasure I can't keep away
Je suis totalement obsédée
Doucement s'il te plait
Pourquoi que tu es si méchant
Mon terribly plus bel enfant
Méchant toi tu es quand je te vois
Je te veux plus que hier
Yes true I want you
You're bad one through and through
You're the devil but you're also an angel
I feel in a devil of a mood
Be installed by the devil
We get hot
Mon diable je t'adore
Je t'adore, je t'adore, je t'adore
Oh aie aie aie aie oh oh oh
You're the devil but you're also an angel
Je t'a, je t'a, je t'a, je t'adore
Aie aie aie aie aie oh
You put me in a devil mood
*** Thanx a lot to Sofia who corrected some mistakes ***

With you
I felt love
With you
I felt the pain
With you
I was me
And a bit of you too
Inhaling and being inhaled
In an all or nothing situation
If I tried to say no
My heart said yes
If I tried to disguise it in my voice
My eyes gave me away
And so we became one
In a mad love of so no limits
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
The fear of separation
Became an obsession
Jealousy and jealous scenes
Until the castle tumbled down
And now our love has turned into smoke
That I can smell but not touch
A fire that became a flame
That will never go out
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
Had to let
My love go
To let it go
With you
I felt love
With you
I felt pain
With you
I was me
And a bit of you too
Inhaling and being inhaled
In an all or nothing situation
Yes I began to dream of you in my arms
From this dream I awoke calm
Knowing you today
We no longer live on
No
Tudo tudo tudo o nada
Nada nada nada nada
Tudo tudo tudo o nada
quase nada nada nada
All or nothing tudo
All or nothing tudo
All or nothing
Nothing nothing
Butchupara
Tudupara
Tudo o nada?
Tudo para
Tudo
Tudo para

Cool and calm, Mr Gorgeous
Walks up to the bar and orders and
As he passes by, they all sigh - ah...
When he moves just like a panther,
He feels your gaze, but won't look at ya
He won't dare a smile
'Cause it's really not his style at all
Oh
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie ....
She's so slick and so curvaceous
The way she walks is quite contagious
Eager eyes follow her thighs and go, hmmm
The way she moves strikes a chord
Hits the groove
But she ignores the
Hopeful advances
No, she won't give no chances at all
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie ....
All alone our Miss Curvaceous
Back at her place finds her bed too spacious
And as she passes her own reflection, sighs
Ooh..
Mr Gorgeous is feeling lonely
He wishes that if he could only
Smile, once in a while
So lonely, poor thing
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie
Aie, aie, aie, aie, aie ....
So while you are shaking your hips, keep your
lips turned up

I hope you don't mind but I see you as my sanctuary
I like the way that you are my sanctuary
I hope you don't mind but I see you as my sanctuary
I like the way that you sleep on your shoes
It's the dark walk
My friend Jamie pan
Peter pan of the park
With flute he pipes his way
On tree branches he plays
Until it's dark
Jamie Pan
When he gets restless
He jumps above the tree
With a hop skip on the jump
He feels free
Jamie's mat
He's filled with glee
When you move so haphazardly
And our playground so free
Jamie plays, Jamie play, play, play
And he gets faceless
He jumps above up the tree
With a hop skip on the jump
He feels free
Shall we let the state believe
From your book let us take a look
Absurd is (?) a players release
Closer to sky
And he gets restless
He jumps above up the tree
With a hop skip on the jump
He feels free
Free from che guevara
And all the different minds of ?? (?)
Tormented by the walls
How it's so fucked up
And no one gives a damn
No one gives a damn
*** Thanx a lot to Dawn who corrected some mistakes ***
Something happened yesterday
I feel lost
Afraid that my love
Loves another
Giulietta
Do you know
To be happy we must wake up
And a place to confront with passion as the body
The body
Yes the body and the shoulders
And the space between the breast
The green birds
The flamingos
The doves the sparrows
Some that can be used according to the occasion
There are different types of byte
Dog bytes, wouf!
Playful bytes, miaou!
Dialetical (?!)
Byte of a wolf, ohhh
Giulietta love this
The religion
And your lover is your god
Ever stimulator of the cold
Your spirit
Like the incense it must stay
Smoke on the outer of your loving body
Giulietta
Now you know
The kamasutra
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
To num aviao saindo fora embora
Estou num aviao saindo fora pra cima
Estou num aviao saindo fora
Agora vou embora
Esta na hora
Bye bye bye
Je ne sais pas qu'est ce que c'est
Il faut que je parte mon avion va partir
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
Agora eu vou embora
Esta na hora
Depois de esse tempo todos juntos
Vamos mudar de assunto
Minha outra vida esta me chamando
A eu estou querendo tanto
Por enquanto
Vamos nos separar
E parar e parar
De olhar para tras
Nao importa o que a gente sente
Nos temos que olhara para frente
Nao e'?
Nao e'?
Nao eeee? e' e'
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
Goodbye sweet romance
I am flying away now
I woke up calling your name
Goodbye sweet love
Do you feel the same
Tears drop from my eyes
As I fly through the sky

It´s a dark night that
passes the earth with
It´s a grasses and deep blue seas
And in the smoke city she is sitting thoughtfully
While they are all up and swaying their dances ways
Derududedudedu
Derududa dancing away
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
It´s a carousel turning an animal walking
And nobody knows what will happen
To anybody anyway
Derududedudedu
Derududa dancing away
And the more she will know when
She´s let it all go once again go
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Derududedudedu
Derududa dancing away
Can you feel that ?
She is on a peak looking over the valleys
Derududedudedu X3
Derududa dancing away
Papa-pa
Cuddle
Papa another world turns
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
Can you feel that ?
What it was ( acoustic )
What it was or what it is
You took me off where I left it
Guessing and wandering what I did
All through the night and we drift a little
I knew you before
I think you´re with me, i'm not sure
Didn’t know what it was
Don’t you know who I am
'Cause I don’t know myself anymore
'Cause I didn’t know what it was before
I didn’t know what it was ( repeat )
What it is or what it was
You took me in when I got off
Forever keeping me just a bit
Back in a way that still tilts a little
I know you before, a feeling, a motion a wave
I look at you now and question the future
Don’t you know who I am
'Cause I don’t know myself anymore
'Cause I didn’t know what it was before
I didn’t know what it was ( repeat )
*** Thanx a lot to Clary for correcting a mistake ***
They cant take that away from me
The way you wear your hat
The way you sip your tea
The memory of all that.
No no ! they cant take that away from me
The way your smile just beams
The way you sing off key
The way you haunt my dreams
No no ! they cant take that away from me
We may never, never meet again on the bumpy road to love
Still I´ll always, always keep the memory of
The way you hold your knife
The way we danced till three
The way you´ve changed my life
No no ! they cant take that away from me
*** Thanx a lot to Trey for this one ***
London
Fell like I'm invisible
And I walk in the middle of the drizzle
Landed in a place which is folded up
London please holds me up
Where are the caresses promised?
How the street are paved
With cold souls, cold souls
Feel like im invisible
As I walk in the midlle
What a pity, what a pity, what a pity
Fallen out of like, with the city
Hard to get a smile in a mile down
Frowns, there's not enough love in this big town.
Where is the love, where is the love?
Cold souls where is the love, where is the love?
Cold souls ( mini cab driver break )
a love in this big town
Cold souls where id the love, where is the love?
You promised me love
Feel like i'm invisible
Feel like i'm invisible
Feel like i'm invisible
Feel like i'm invisible
Exorcised the demons inside my head
As I walk I like what it was
Mister
Mister
Don’t hide your heart away
Keeping emotional ways at bay
Show the glow let it overflow,
Overflow your cup hiding away in your tough disguise
Your beauty and your emotional sides
Inside is all the love
Talented fool
Foolish of you
To keep it for yourself
Talented fool
Foolish of you
To keep it for yourself
Mr your tears are the sweetest things
Liquid from your soul escape
You said the best things when you were taking a fall
You felt like you were going to die
And then you said it all
And then you said it all
Hiding away in your tough disguise
Your beauty and your emotional sides
Inside is all the love.
Remember This
Beija-me assim, dentro de mim
Não me esquece de apagar o que era antes
Beija-me assim, não esqueça
Memória é uma coisa que sabe o que gosta
(Que gosta) o que o doce rapaz lembra
O velho que sabe tudo o que vê
Que não esquece que o que foi, foi
Remember me once again
Com você
Remember this outra vez
Com você
Vez... Mais...
Beija-me assim, dentro de mim
Não esquece de apagar o que era antes
Beija-me assim, não me esqueça
Memory is something that knows what it likes
What it likes, it likes to do some more
O velho que sabe tudo o que vê
Que não esquece que o que foi, foi
Essa parede não mente
O que viu foi, o que deu dá, dá, dá, dá... ainda mais
Essa mistura louca
Que dá água na boca
Que dá um medo foda
Que pega essa roda
Aqui no vento
Medo, o escuro, cinzento
Perto de ti
*** Thanx a lot to Joana & Kkboop for this one ***
It's
amazing
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
Life
can be sweet
I walk alone you are in my song
We make our way up on a warm breeze
Down mimosa street across the avenue
I hear a voice that’s calling me to sing as one - aaaah
Brave the waters and see when it happens
Life can be sweet, life can be hmmm
If you just
So la ti do for joy and sorrow
Wouldn’t it be nice to have you
We fall in love in tears and laughter
Yes it would be nice to have you
Way beyond and way
Before tomorrow
Now its early march and you’re still here with me
Warm in my heart and we are free to be as one
Wont you sing it with me?
Brave the waters and see when it happens
Life can be sweet life can be hmmm
If you just
So la ti do for joy and sorrow
Wouldn’t it be nice to have you
We fall in love in tears and laughter
Yes it would be nice to have you
Way beyond and way before
We dream of love
Reminisces and kisses
Wouldn’t it be nice to have you
Oh to have my love
Loving and giving
Yes it would be nice to have you
Way beyond and way
Before tomorrow
This song
This song is in the sky with my dreams
And spirits high
Im singing, with your smile on my mouth
In the air you float above my house
You´re everywhere
I have no choice but to climb you with my voice
You make me breathless with your tenderness
I fly
You are in the air
You are on my skin
You are everything
So pleased that you exists
With this song you bring a tender kiss
Can’t come down for a while
Your warmth is a very nice glow
Heart´s thumping like a bell in a church
Makes me climb on the furniture
I fly
You are in the air
You are on my skin
You are everything
Falling under the spell of loving you
And as the solar star in me
Has fixed my constant star on thee
The once fierce we will find
Leopards, tigers become kinder
Falling in the air of loving you
Falling in the air of loving you
( John Lennon cover / Heroes Of
Nature LP Bonus Track )
Imagine there's no heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today
Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one
