Mini-critique N°344

Paroles :

I don't wanna live without your love

Ooh, mmh, yeah

I can't imagine

Looking in someone else's eyes

What we have surpasses

Even paradise

It's hard to fathom

Reaching for someone else's hand

What we share is magic

Heaven had a plan

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life

I can't get enough (just can't get enough)

Of your touch-feels so right

Unending passion

Somehow the fire never dies

What we share

Is everlasting

Love without demise, oh yes

He made it happen

Placed so much joy into our hands

What we dreamed

We finally captured

Heaven took command

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life (in my life)

I can't get enough

Of your touch, feels so right

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life (in my life, in my life)

I can't get enough (just can't get enough)

Of your touch, feels so right

I don't wanna live without your love

Must have been sent from up above

Just can't get enough

I don't wanna live without your love

Must have been sent from up above (must have been sent from up above)

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life

Ooh, I can't get enough (I don't wanna live without your love)

Of your touch, feels so right

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life

Ooh, I can't get enough (just can't get enough)

Of your touch, feels so right

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life

Ooh, I can't get enough (I don't wanna live without your love)

Of your touch, feels so right

Sent from up above

So much love

In my life, yeah, oh, yeah

I can't get enough

Critique :

"Sent From Up Above" est le neuvième titre du premier album éponyme de Mariah Carey. Il est sorti le 12 juin 1990 chez Columbia Records.

Dans sa critique de la chanson, l'auteur Chris Nickson déclare :

"Sent from Up Above" ralentit légèrement le tempo, avec un arrangement qui doit beaucoup à la soul des années soixante-dix, en particulier aux groupes plus doux comme ceux des Chi-Lites, mais avec quelques touches technologiques des années quatre-vingt-dix pour en rehausser l'attrait.
