Biography

American electronic music duo which was formed by Rob Garza and Eric Hilton in 1995. Their music mixes elements of dub, acid jazz, reggae, Indian classical, Middle Eastern music, hip hop, electronica, and Brazilian music, especially bossa nova. Garza and Hilton met in May 1995 at the Eighteenth Street Lounge in Washington DC. They were introduced by a mutual friend and proceeded to discuss their admiration for the work of Antonio Carlos Jobim, '60s-'70s bossa nova, and jazz. Weeks later, in a home studio, they began to work on the music that would launch Thievery Corporation. After several early 12" singles, Thievery Corporation released their first Lp, "Sounds From the Thievery Hi-Fi" on ESL Music.

LYRICS

it took so long, for me to realize
how strong your heart is
and all this time, my mind was working
in strange ways
looking back on the days, just wanna be free
through the love in your eyes
now I'm staring inside, just wanna be free
through the love in your eyes

sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......
sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......

sharp turn, my mind is a blur
slow passage thru the air
looking back on the days
all over your mind, just wanna be free

sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......
sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......

it took so long, for me to realize
how strong your heart is
and all this time, my mind was working
in strange ways

sharp turn, my mind is a blur
slow passage thru the air
looking back on the days
all over your mind, just wanna be free

sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......
sweet tides, pools of love
your eyes are full of.......
