CasaBlanca | Ennah | 2019

Hello Friends , As the air around is beginning to embrace the crisp refreshing wintriness , as the hot sultry winds recede to make way for the cool sombre breeze of autumn , the longing and yearning that music of 70s-80s so beautifully captured as if aches to be heard .. I present to you yet another classic , one of my favourites that I grew up listening to , a quintessential romantic number - "Casablanca" by Bertie Higgins. The song was first heard in the 1982 album "Just Another Day in Paradise" under the label - Kat Family/Epic , produced by Sonny Limbo and Scoot Maclellan and gained immense popularity in the Pacific Rim countries and Asia. The song also featured in the movie Casablanca (1942) starring the legends - Humphrey Bogart and Ingrid Bergman contributing to it becoming a runaway hit. I hope my rendition of the song fills you with the same joy and rapture as you hear it as it did for me presenting it to all of you. Thank you everyone for your love and support. Credits :

I fell in love with you watching Casablanca 
Back row of the drive-in show in the flickering light 
Popcorn and cokes beneath the stars 
Became champagne and caviar 
Making love on a long hot summer's night 
I thought you fell in love with me watching Casablanca 
Holding hands 'neath the paddle fans 
In Rick's candle lit cafe 
Hiding in the shadows from the spies 
Moroccan moonlight in your eyes 
Making magic at the movies in my old Chevrolet 

Oh a kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca 
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh 
Please come back to me in Casablanca 
I love you more and more each day as time goes by 

I guess there're many broken hearts in Casablanca 
You know I've never really been there so I don't know 
I guess our love story will never be seen 
On the big wide silver screen 
But it hurt just as bad when I had to watch you go 

Oh a kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca 
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh 
Please come back to me in Casablanca 
I love you more and more each day as time goes by 

Oh a kiss is still a kiss in Casablanca 
But a kiss is not a kiss without your sigh 
Please come back to me in Casablanca 
I love you more and more each day as time goes by 
I love you more and more each day, as time goes by
