Kim Carnes: "Bette Davis Eyes" yes... gotta be one of the best pop songs of the 80's.
Kim's delivery is what makes it. She can go from a whisper to a growl so effectively. And the lyrics are fantastic!! Her hair is Harlow gold, her lips sweet surprise Her hands are never cold, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll turn the music on you, you won't have to think twice She's pure as New York snow, she got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you, she'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious, and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush She got Greta Garbo's stand off sighs, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll let you take her home, it whets her appetite She'll lay you on the throne, she got Bette Davis eyes She'll take a tumble on you, roll you like you were dice Until you come up blue, she's got Bette Davis eyes She'll expose you, when she snows you Off your feet with the crumbs she throws you She's ferocious and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes And she'll tease you, she'll unease you All the better just to please you She's precocious, and she knows just What it takes to make a pro blush All the boys think she's a spy, she's got Bette Davis eyes... | |

Musically, it doesn't get much better than the Summer of 1981(except for 1984, which was unreal). So many great hits during that period. | |
