Dopo il buon esordio di "Lunapark" i Luna escono nel marzo del 1994 con questo straordinario "Bewitched", a detta di alcuni il loro migliore lavoro.
L'album, caratterizzato dal classico stile sognante e Dream pop del leader Dean Wareham, ci propone canzoni travolgenti come "California (all the way)", in cui si alternano strofe lente e un ritornello potente, la soffusissima title track e soprattutto quella "great Jones street" che è un capolavoro di tenerezza, bucolicita' e serenità, una canzone lenta sostenuta, solo o quasi, dalla chitarra acustica di Wareham.
Un disco da avere, per tutti i fan del Dream pop e dello shoegaze.

04 Friendly Advice (06:33)
cover my face with roses
cover me head to toe
i had to be drunk
just to look at your face
that was all right by me
how long will this go....
how long will this go....
how long will this go on
cover my face with roses
cover me head to toe
you wanted to give me
some friendly advice
that was alright by me
how long will this go....
how long will this go....
how long will this go on
cover my face with roses
cover me head to toe
they're throwin' a party
and you're not invited
that was alright by me
how long will this go....
how long will this go....
how long will this go on
05 I Know You Tried (03:19)
i went to your street
at seven in the mornin'
and while you were asleep
i read your newspaper
i saw you out walkin'
out walkin' with your father
pretendin' not to see me
pretendin' to be a family
i know you tried, baby
i know you tried
i know you tried to go on
saw a metal object
lyin' in the street
and when we turned away
it stood itself up
you circled the island
in a chevy caprice
you stuck out your tongue
and your nose began to bleed
i know you tried, baby
i know you tried
i know you tried to go on
i know you tried, baby
i know you tried
i know you tried to go on
