Chopin's Prelude number 20 in C minor was one of 24 he wrote for the piano in 1839.
Around 150 later Barry Manilow borrowed it for his song Could it be Magic.
Could it be Magic - Barry Manilow
Spirits move me, every time I'm near you
Whirling like a
cyclone in my mind
Your my lifeline,
angel of my lifetime
Answers to all
answers I can find
Baby I want you
Come, come, come into
my arms
Let me feel the
wonder of all of you
Could it be magic,
now, now, now and hold on fast
Could this be the
magic at last
Baby take me high
upon a hillside
High up where the
stallion meets the sun
I could love you,
build my world around you
Never leave you till
my life is done
Baby I want you
Come, come, come into
my arms
Let me feel the
wonder of all of you
Could it be magic,
now, now, now and hold on fast
Could this be the
magic at last
