#black eyed boy

Release: July 28, 1997

Lyrics:

No I don't lack ambition

Can't you see what I hate

That it's you who is sinking

Locked behind iron gates

You should know

You're falling into fiction

I can tell

You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and time

You call me superstitious

Tie me up with your deceit

I could never be malicious

Though I seem so bittersweet

You should know

You're falling into fiction

I can tell

You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and time

Black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and

Time

Yeh, you should know

You're falling into fiction

I can tell

You're on some foolish mission

You're black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and time

Black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and time

Songwriter:

Black eyed soul

You should know

That there's nowhere else to go

My black eyed boy

You will find

Your own space and time

On July 28, 1997 ’Black Eyed Boy’ single was released!

It was written by Sharleen Spiteri, Johnny McElhone, Eddie Campbell, Richard Hynd and Robert Hodgens. Produced by the band itself.

The single picked at #5 in the UK and reached Top 50 in Australia, Belgium, France, Ireland, Israel and Sweden.

The music video was directed by Karen Lamond, who later worked on the band's 'Put Your Arms Around Me' video.

"Texas immerse themselves in Motown on this thumpingly catchy Supremes-sounding groove, conjuring up a perfect summer gift for radio... Sharleen plays Diana Ross on the stand-out track from White On Blonde, its Motownalike euphoria pumped up even further in this single version. Will send the album shooting back up the chart." - Music Week magazine, 1997

"[Black Eyed Boy is] little more than the Supremes-by-numbers." - The Times, 1997

Official release included b-sides 'Sorry', 'Fameless', 'Black Eyed Disco' and 'Say What You Want (Acoustic Version)'.
