Matt Monro's vocal version of the Van Der Valk Theme 'Eye Level'. It reached #28 in the UK charts, produced by the legendary George Martin
I thought that I had the world on the end of a string
I thought that I was a millionaire
Free as the dawn and then came the morning
I turned and I saw you there
And you smiled and you smiled
With laughter in your eyes
Then the world seemed to fade away
And you smiled and you smiled
And I was captured
Don't you know?
I'd like to stay
Now I've got something worth talking about
I was a fool not to see before
My life was empty until your love showed me
The things I've been looking for
And you smiled and you smiled
With laughter in your eyes then world seemed to fade away
And you smiled and you smiled
And I was captured don't you know
Girl I'm so crazy about you
I know I can't live without you
Once I would run when somebody said why didn't I try to settle down?
I didn't care now I'm up in the air with my head really in the clouds
And you smiled and you smiled
With laughter in your eyes and the world seemed to fade away
And you smiled and I was captured, don't you know
And you smiled and you smiled
With laughter in your eyes and then world seemed to fade away
And you smiled and you smiled and I was captured
Don't you know?
I'd like to stay
I'd like to stay

Well two nice surprises here. Firstly, didn’t realise that words had been put to Eye Level. Secondly, it’s the great Matt Monro singing it. Brilliant!

There's not much you can't find on youtube, if you're struggling to find a particular song just leave a comment on one of our channels, it's worked many times that one of the uploaders has it and uploads it.

Matt was such a talented chap, music was changing but he still held his own during the 60's, a tragedy he died so young

Absolutely brilliant! I've always loved the tune, since watching Van Der Valk in the 70's. And I've been a fan of Matt Monro for years. Put the two together with some proper song lyrics; what a combination!!!!!!!!!

@KKG51 3 года назад

I was unaware of Van Der Valk but I used to hear the instrumental version of this as background music for an Airline commercial in the 70's. It haunted me over the years until one day I heard the instrumental version on one of those elevator music FM stations. I wrote to them asking for the name of the tune and that pointed me to an album by Manuel called "Music Of the Mountains" where if was identified as "Eye Level". I never knew that there was a vocal arrangement to go with it!

@ayrshireman1314 2 года назад

It was a legendary 70s British TV crime series.

@Benjiesbeenbetter. Год назад

Ah, "Manuel and The Music of the Mountains". The Latin inspired alternate orchestra of Geoff Love. In both personas he did some wonderful arrangements. Well worth searching for either.

@IVORIESMAN 10 лет назад

This was played on the radio a fair bit back then, I'm surprised it didn't make a small dent in the chart. Interesting to see Zack Laurence of Mr.Bloe fame on the credits - small world. There were a lot of covers of this tune at the time - not least 'It's a Tetley Time of Day'...:-)

@OldiesAl 10 лет назад

I guessed this might have got some airplay on radio 2 but was still into radio 1 in the early 70's. Didn't realise Zack Laurence was Mr. Bloe thanks for the info Joe

@IVORIESMAN 10 лет назад

ferrarial There was a bunch of people involved in Mr. Bloe - Zack was the pianist. I think we all latched on to him cos he played that great piano bit at the beginning. I think he was the main-stay though.

@TheSmithDorian 9 лет назад

I'm surprised it didn't chart either. I used to hear this on the radio all the time when I was ma kid.

@IVORIESMAN 9 лет назад

TheSmithDorian ....the instrumental theme to the 'Van der Valk' TV series had already been hugely popular - sadly some tunes do not lend themselves very well to a lyric after the event.

@TheSmithDorian 9 лет назад

***** Yeah, I dimly recall Cleo Laine doing a vocal version of Cavatina (theme to the Deer Hunter) around about this time too. I think that record might have met a similar,Fate.
