Me And Armini (2008)

Informations

The single
Me and Armini is the first single from the eponym album "Me and Armini". It's without a doubt Emiliana's most surprising single, a pop reggae ballad, far from the accoustisc style of "Fisherman's Woman", or from the trip hop of "Love In The Time Of Science". It's also a real statement from Emiliana to show us the change in her style and music direction. The fans have different views about it, some of them complaining about the more poppish commercial aspect of the single, that will reach for a larger audience. Nevertheless, this single is already a hit and will forever be a different song in Emiliana's discography.

Rough Trade release the single as a Digital single, available on official downloading websites such as Itunes. But a Vinyl version is also released, limited to 500 copies.

Lyrics

i had my life
i know my place
i belong in your arms again
and i've been waiting
for you to belong te me

some might say
i'm a silly woman to wait
but i know you still hold
my love

some people think
that i'm heading for a meltdown
that i'm sitting by the phone
that i worry but no

when i need your body close
i burn up in smoke
and i swore i'd keep waiting

now i see this city
won't hold my love for armini
i know he's close
but i dream
i just keep waiting
i keep waiting

some people think that i'm
heading for a meltdown that i'm
sitting by the phone that i
worry but no

this i know she doesn't love you like i do
yes it's clear she'll never love you like me

you people say that i'm
heading for a meltdown that i'm
just hanging by the phone that i
worry but no

i don't worry 'cause i know
i don't worry 'cause i know

me and armini
me and my armini
