Subject: Need help with an obscure mid 80s song!

Written By: Lane on 01/01/04 at 08:48 a.m.

Please help! I taped this song off of a Canadian radio station (Chez 106 Ottawa) around 1985. I think the song is from a Canadian or UK band. The genre seems like synth Pop to me. The chorus goes something like this:

Fire and Ice
Loreli you and I
You're Magic
You're Magic
Turn it on
Turns me on


some other lyrics I could make out are

the river winds
a bridge of gold
slight of hand
you slip away

Any ideas? I appreciate any help! Thanks!!!

thats it! I did some searching and found that the explorers are an offshoot of Roxy Music, incredibly I found lyrics for the song and knew that was the song I was looking for!

Thanks! Nice work! Now to find a copy of the song!

Excuse me a sec, but I just noticed that this thread was at the top of the list, but it said it was last updated on January 9th! But today's the 12th, so how could they possibly be listed out of chronological order? ??? I'm just wondering.

Easy, I posted a reply then immediately deleted it when I noticed a mistake.  It's one of the quirks in the software.  :)
