Hazy Shade of Winter Music: The Bangles |

Vidder Notes |

I guess it's time I came clean--I'm a Doyle girl. Sure, Bodie is charming and buff and obviously adores his partner. But his partner is the one I'm watching. I think it's because Ray Doyle is such a contradiction. He is constantly worried about the toll the job is taking on his soul, yet he is the first to lose his temper, the first to act, often with violence. He is a crack shot, he fights dirty, and he never ever gives up. You don't want to be recipient of his wrath. But at the end of the day, he is harder on no one than himself, which makes this fierce individual all the more sympathetic. Poor guy. In some ways, it would have made more sense to use the Simon & Garfunkel version of this song, as there would have been two male voices singing instead of a girl group. But I like the guitar work in the Bangles' cover and that hard driving 80's beat seems a better fit for the lads. |

Hazy Shade of Winter
Time, time, time
See what's become of me...
Time, time, time
See what's become of me
While I looked around
For my possibilities
I was so hard to please
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a hazy shade of winter
Hear the Salvation Army band
Down by the riverside
It's bound to be a better ride
Than what you've got planned
Carry a cup in your hand
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a hazy shade of winter
Hang onto your hopes my friend
That's an easy thing to say
But if your hopes should pass away
Simply pretend
That you can build them again
Look around
Grass is high
Fields are ripe
It's the springtime of my life
Seasons change with their scenery
Weaving time in a tapestry
Won't you stop and remember me
Look around
Leaves are brown
And the sky
Is a hazy shade of winter
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
Look around
Leaves are brown
There's a patch of snow on the ground
