Nights In Estoril
 

Help me out here. I think this song is about the times Christine and her (Then) husband Eddy Quintella spent there. AM I right?

Estoril, Portugal is downright wonderful. Just went there in August! So gorgeous...and of course I would sing the song (in my head) while I was there. Estoril is a popular destination point for vacation seekers in Europe. Charming and sweet.

I think It's one of the better songs on Time too. :thumbsup:

YES. This one and Hollywood (Some Other Kind Of Town) are my very, very favorite ones on Time.

Yup. I was going to Mention Hollywood. :thumbsup:

I don't like the keyboards on this album. The textures she chose are kind of corny for me on Time. However, I think it's a beautiful song with some great vocals.

Who does the backing vocals? Anyone know specifically?

To my ears, Christine just layered on the backing vocals. I don't really hear any traces of any other voice.

i thought the same

It's not just one of the better songs on 'Time,' it's THE best song on 'Time,' IMO.
And it's my #2 all-time favorite Chris song (#1 is "As Long As You Follow").

Absolutely sublime. :nod:

Top ten Christine song. Soooo good...

Never heard this song
 

You could buy the album. It's not out of print. ;) :) Or, if you just want the Chris songs, you could get them from iTunes. I just checked & they have all of the Time songs available to purchase and download. There are 5 "new Chris" songs on the album, all worthy to have, in my opinion.

I really like "Nights In Estoril". I think it's a beautiful song with great vocals. It's my second favorite Chris song on the album & is obviously about her & Eddy in Portugal. I think most of her songs on the album were more personal than many of her past songs-"Hollywood", "Nights In Estoril" & "All Over Again".

I wonder how much input Mr Quintela had in this song? Lots of her songs since Tango in the Night had joint songwriting credits with him but I've always wondered how much he did contribute.

Great song. Along with Hollywood and Do it all over again it's my favourite from Time. She might not have wanted to record the album, she might have hated Dave Mason but she just can't help herself when it comes to songwriting - they're nearly always terrific.

I highly recommend buying the album, too. :nod: Some wonderful music there.

This is just a guess, but probably not much. ;)
