LOOKING FOR AN ECHO
KENNY VANCE AND THE PLANOTONES
INTRO: - play over and over until
Verse comes in.
VERSE:
At Erasmus Hall high school we used to harmonize
Me and Frankie and Adam and two Italian guys
We were singing oldies but they were newies then
And today when I play my old 45 s I remember when
VERSE:
We practiced in a subway, in a lobby or a hall
Crowded in a doorway singing do waps to the wall
And if we went to a party and they wouldn t let us sing
We d lock ourselves in the bathroom and nobody could get in
CHORUS:
Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we d almost found ooooh
BRIDGE:
And the girls would gather round us and our heads would really swell
We d sing songs by the Moonglows, the Harptones and the Dells
And when we sang sincerely, we really sang it high
Even though it was falsetto we almost reached the sky
VERSE:
We ve sung a lot of changes since 19 55
And a lot of bad arrangements we ve tried to harmonise
Now they ve turned into oldies but they were newies then
And today when I play those old 45 s I remember when
CHORUS:
Cause we were looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we d almost ...
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we d almost ...
looking for an echo an answer to our sound
A place to be in harmony a place we d almost found
NOTE: Depending on Kenny Vance and the Planotones mood
they sometimes change the ending up. They will use
parts from two other doo-wop songs.
In that case play D Bm G A7 over and over until end.
These are the additional lyrics they will use:
VERSE:
Wooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oooooooooh - Oh
You are an angel
Angel divine
You re sent from heaven
You re really mine
Oh darling
Oh darling
Oh, oh my darling
Lorraine
*VERSE:
Oh what a night
This is the night
This is the night
This is the night for love
Sing the second VERSE* 6 times - then fade out....
