Hypnotized! Catchy and kitschy - tenor Ivanhoe’s latest release is a stunner. The first notes with an operatic touch roll out in darkness and pain only to explode at the refrain in a truly ABBA-like way with a hint of nu-disco and even some inspirations of Claude François. Kitschy? Yes. Catchy? Oh, yeaaaah!
It’s a lovely cocktail with the slice of forbidden fruit adorning the glass of joyful and vivid heavenly nectar.
As the divine and the devious in human beings, the verses and the refrain collide sending heaps of sparkle and rhythm into the air.
The “Hypnotized“ was created by songwriter and producer Maria Eriksson and here is her message to you:
Now count from ten to one with me.
Ten - you’re on the dance floor
Nine - you are in 1979 or in 2024, it doesn’t matter...
Eight - you saw someone special...
Seven - your eyes met
Six - your hands touched
Five – you are dancing
Four - You smell the perfume on his skin
Three - you feel the desire...
Two - you merge into one
One - passion has taken over you
I created this song to return people to their ideal place and time. Enjoy.
Your Maria Eriksson
Lyrics:
Like an angel with a demonic soul,
Like a lovely poisonous flower
You’re a danger with a neon glow,
No one can resist your power.
You play kitten, but you are a tiger,
Your sparkling eyes are like a trap.
You’re so calm but you’re an exciter.
I am running, but there’s no escape
The scent of your skin makes me hypnotized.
One step away from sin, the air is magnetized.
You make me hurt, but you make me happy.
Tell me what’s on your mind this time?
You’re a wolf pretending to be a puppy.
Come on now, just commit your crime!
Like a demon, but you are a saint...
Like a rose with sharp thorns.
You’re danger in war paint,
An angel with devil horns.
The scent of your skin makes me hypnotized.
One step away from sin, the air is magnetized.
