Pamala Stanley: Music and Lyrics
Hey Mr. Magic
(Pamala Stanley)
Lou Schere and Rhoda Roberts
I met Lou and Rhoda while auditioning for Broadway plays in New York City in my early 20's. I used to do their backers auditions for them. They were such a talented writing team. Lou and I loved working together. He wrote the music and Rhoda wrote lyrics...such a talented duo. I sang all their demos for them.... anything from plays to commercials to songs. When I got my record deal on EMI Germany. I needed songs and I loved this one and 2 others on this album. Naturally they gave them to me. I took Lou to Germany with me and he played piano on my entire album. He was the best. At only 35 years old Lou died of an Asthma attack. His wife Irene, Rhoda and I mourned his loss for a long time but at least we have these treasures he left behind.
HEY MR. MAGIC lyrics
Sometimes you touch a chord in me It makes me want to cry
Sometimes you make me happy ‘till I feel like I can fly
When something deep is hurting You chase the blues away
Cause there’s magic in the music
So much magic in the music that you play
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I hope the music never ends
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I wanna hear it again and again and again
Allright…. ah uh ……yeah
Tonight you make me feel so free I wanna paint the skies
You’re beggin’ me to sing my song before my music dies
My head is turning circles and I feel so swept away
Cause there’s magic in the music
So much magic in the music that you play
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I hope the music never ends
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I wanna hear it again and again and again
Allright…. ah uh ……yeah
Play it again and again and again and again and again and again
Play it again and again and again and again and again and again
Play it again and again and again and again and again and again
Play it again and again and again and again and again and again
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I hope the music never ends
Hey Mr. Magic play that music
I wanna hear it again and again and again
