Oggi vado addirittura nel 1982, con il brano dance-pop “Just an Illusion” degli Imagination, pubblicato come primo estratto dall’album In the Heat of the Night sempre dello stesso anno. Il singolo ebbe successo in tutto il mondo, in particolare in Europa, mentre in Italia arrivò fino alla 2ª posizione.

Gli Imagination sono stati un gruppo soul e dance inglese formatosi nei primi anni ottanta. Hanno vinto 4 dischi di platino, 9 d’oro e oltre una dozzina di dischi d’argento in tutto il mondo tra il 1981 ed il 1983.

#imagination #justanillusion #1982


Llusion, illusion

Illusion, illusion

Searching for a destiny that’s mine

There’s another place, another time

Touching many hearts along the way, yeah

Hoping that I’ll never have to say

It’s just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion

Follow your emotions anywhere

Is it building magic in the air?

Never let your feelings get you down

Open up your eyes and look around

It’s just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back in all this confusion?

Could it be that. it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back in all this confusion?

Could it be that. it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be a picture in my mind?

Never sure exactly what I’ll find

Only in my dreams I turn you on

Here for just a moment then you’re gone

It’s just an illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion (ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah)

Illusion

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion

(Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ah) Illusion

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back in all this confusion?

Could it be that. it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back in all this confusion?

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be that?

Putting me back

Could it be that?

Now, Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back in all this confusion

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be that (ooh yeah) it’s just an illusion?

Putting me back (ow) in all this confusion?

Could it be that (yeah) it’s just an illusion, now?

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion?

Could it be that (yeah, yeah, yeah) in all this confusion

Could it be that… it’s just an illusion, now?
