En 1980, Lio reprend et atomise un standard du jazz, « You Go To My Head », auparavant pratiqué par des grands noms tels que Billie Holiday, Louis Armstrong, Judy Garland, Doris Day, Lena Horne, Marlene Dietrich, et bien d’autres encore.
Avec Lio : voix nasillarde, rythme carré et synthés à l’azote, histoire de faire redescendre tout le monde sur Terre. Ou au contraire, de donner au morceau un petit air de voyage vers les étoiles, à vous de voir.
« You go to my head,
And you linger like a haunting refrain
And I find you spinning round in my brain
Like the bubbles in a glass of champagne.
You go to my head
Like a sip of sparkling burgundy brew
And I find the very mention of you
Like the kicker in a julep or two.
The thrill of the thought
That you might give a thought
To my plea casts a spell over me
Still I say to myself: get a hold of yourself
Can't you see that it can never be?
You go to my head
With smile that makes my temperature rise
Like a summer with a thousand Julys
You intoxicate my soul with your eyes
Tho I'm certain that this heart of mine
Hasn't a ghost of a chance in this crazy romance,
You go to my head. »
