My husband must have been in Sicily and Taormina in the same year this video was shot. He taught English as an EFL teacher for a year after university in 1973 ( ?) based in Gela ( and Ragusa ) but had received an introduction to Daphne Phelps who owned Casa Cuseni in Taormina from a friend from home who had known her when she was a senior psychologist in Sussex ! A year after our wedding ( when my husband had inherited a bit of money ) we had a holiday in Sicily ( disastrous holiday actually, not helped by the cold and wet weather ! ) and we visited Daphne at Casa Cuseni but other than the beauty of the house the only 2 thinks I remember are a man staying there who showed me the mark stamped on his arm as he was a concentration camp survivor and her relating the story of nearly having her house wrecked when she inadvertently offered accommodation to Caitlin Thomas ( Dylan Thomas - the poet’s - widow ) who was herself an alcoholic , and her young Italian lover !

TAORMINA আলোর দিকে তাকিয়ে আছে.......... Lyrics: There’s laughter in the darkness Music floating in across the bay He’s half listening and wondering How he could have let her slip away So long ago but still he wants to know If anyone has seen her And he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina They were young and love was shining Like the colours of the rainbow Desire felt like choking Love was smoking under the volcano He can still taste her kisses Sweet as the red wine from Messina Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina Seems like another lifetime When they rambled along the shore Seems like another lifetime She used to call him her sweet senor Maybe in another lifetime On a pathway to the sea Maybe there they’ll be The crowd calls for the emperor Raise their hands to hail another king But he’s been so long a wanderer Another crowd can never mean a thing He came, he saw, he conquered Ten thousand voices roared in the arena Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina He hears the chimes of history Myths of gods and men forever ringing Ancient dreams in all their mystery Wars for Sicily and Spartan women In the mists of antiquity Ships of war set sail from Carthagina Now he’s sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina Sitting out in the night Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
Jeg tror, jeg har hørt dette nummer tredive gange de sidste to måneder, efter at jeg hørte det første gang. Jeg får det så godt, hver gang jeg hører det. Hallejuha.
Another Absolutely Brilliant track from the King of the Guitar Mark Knopfler.

TAORMINA আলোর দিকে তাকিয়ে আছে..........
Lyrics:
There’s laughter in the darkness
Music floating in across the bay
He’s half listening and wondering
How he could have let her slip away
So long ago but still he wants to know
If anyone has seen her
And he’s sitting out in the night
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
They were young and love was shining
Like the colours of the rainbow
Desire felt like choking
Love was smoking under the volcano
He can still taste her kisses
Sweet as the red wine from Messina
Now he’s sitting out in the night
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
Seems like another lifetime
When they rambled along the shore
Seems like another lifetime
She used to call him her sweet senor
Maybe in another lifetime
On a pathway to the sea
Maybe there they’ll be
The crowd calls for the emperor
Raise their hands to hail another king
But he’s been so long a wanderer
Another crowd can never mean a thing
He came, he saw, he conquered
Ten thousand voices roared in the arena
Now he’s sitting out in the night
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
He hears the chimes of history
Myths of gods and men forever ringing
Ancient dreams in all their mystery
Wars for Sicily and Spartan women
In the mists of antiquity
Ships of war set sail from Carthagina
Now he’s sitting out in the night
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
Sitting out in the night
Looking down upon the lights of Taormina
Un bel hommage à la Sicile !!!!!!!!!!!!
Well done video.
Beautififul video
Jeg tror, jeg har hørt dette nummer tredive gange de sidste to måneder, efter at jeg hørte det første gang. Jeg får det så godt, hver gang jeg hører det. Hallejuha.
*"desire felt like chokin'* /
*love was smokin'"* 🎶🎧😑❤️💔😢
