Carla Bruni – Those Dancing Days Are Gone

22nd Apr 2007

This single invites you to be special guests at the musical marriage between the sounds of Joni Mitchell and Ray Lamontagne. Supple vocals are unified with a wistful blues edged accompaniment, providing a platform for the mystical poetry on display;

“I carried the sun in a golden cup, the moon in a silver bag.”

This Italy born and France raised enchantress (it must have been tough for her to watch last year’s World Cup final!), brings life and a modern horn-fuelled kick to WB Yeats poem, ‘These Dancing Days Are Gone’. This lazy summertime snippet comes just at the right time to tempt the more musing musos into investing in Bruni’s
forthcoming second album, ‘No Promises’.
