B i o g r a p h y After spending many of year being hypnotized under the influences cabaret style vocals of Billie Holiday, Louise Armstrong and Ella Fitzgerald, Iceland native Moa eventually followed in their footsteps as a jazz singer while still in high school. But after recording a full-length album of acid-jazz tunes, she felt that it was time to move on into the genre of electronica. Having the chance to lay down some vocal tracks on the occasional techno single followed a collaboration with Eythor Arnalds, resulting in the 1994 industrial rock project Bong. Even thought the band reached some success in Iceland and press attention in England, Moa eventually moved on upon Bong's disband to start her own gig of combining her early influences of jazz, blues and classical with her love for dance, techno and synth pop. Tommy Boy Records took notice to Moa's sound and released her first full-length "Universal" in 1999. |

Joy and pain
Every day has a choice
You can make for yourself
Morning is here
Bringing you openness
Every day
Is an unwritten page
Dont you believe me
Its more than you say
Dont you believe me
Its your own freeway
Its your turn to choose
Dont try to explain
Joy and Pain
Your turn to choose
Twisting between
Joy and Pain
Joy and Pain
If you walk out this door
On your freeway once more
I've told you before
This is unwritten page
Dont you believe me
Its more than you say
Dont you believe me
Its your own freeway
Its your turn to choose
Dont try to explain
Joy and Pain
Your turn to choose
Twisting between
Joy and Pain
Joy and Pain
Your turn to choose
Dont try to explain
Joy and Pain
Your turn to choose
Twisting between
Joy and Pain
Joy and Pain
Every day has a choice
You can make for yourself
Every day has a choice
You can make for yourself
Toy
How come
Its so easy to remember
How come
Its so hard to forget
How come
Its so easy to surrender
How come
Its so hard to defend
Youre spinning me around in my brain
Like a bibble in a glass of champagne
You confuse me
You seduce me
Stop spinning me around
Im not your toy
Im a girl
Im not your toy
And youre a boy
How come
Its so easy to flow
How come
Its so hard to remain
How come
Its so easy to tempt
How come
Its so hard to resist
Youre spinning me around in my brain
Like a bibble in a glass of champagne
You confuse me
You seduce me
Stop spinning me around
Im not your toy
Im a girl
Im not your toy
And youre a boy
Im a girl
Im not your toy
And youre a boy
How come, how come
Youre spinning me around in my brain
Like a bibble in a glass of champagne
You confuse me
You seduce me
Stop spinning me around
Im not your toy
Im a girl
Im not your toy
And youre a boy
Im not your toy
Im a girl
Im not your toy
And youre a boy...
Memory cloud
It's not the way it used to be
We used to live in harmony
Things will never be the same again
Now it's only me, myself and I
Living on a memory cloud
Now I've got to hope someday
Is gonna be my resurrection day
Things will never be the same again
Now it's only me, myself and I
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me
Life will never be the same
Without you by my side again
Surrendering to every pain
Now it's only me, myself and I
Living on a memory cloud
Only got to hope someday
Is gonna be my resurrection day
Things will never be the same again
Now it's only me, myself and I
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
Living on a memory cloud
You know what it means to me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me
It means a lot
It means a lot
To me ...
Rockets
I feel like the rockets
You fired in the sky
When we first kissed
And you looked into my eyes
I dont know
Where our trip will end
Destination unknown
Destination unknown
Were rockets on a journey
Journey for two
Were rockets on a journey
Exploring me and you
I wish that we could land
On the dark side of the moon
Where no one can see us
Embraced by the gloom
I dont know
Where our trip will end
Destination unknown
Destination unknown
Were rockets on a journey
Journey for two
Were rockets on a journey
Me and you
Were rockets on a journey
Journey for two
Were rockets on a journey
Exploring me and you
Were rockets on a journey
For two
Were rockets on a journey
Me and you
Me and you ...
Can't forget you
I can still taste you on my lips
I can still feel you touchin'
I can still hear the whisper in my ears
I can't forget you
I can still remember
When you held me in your arms
Like there's no tomorrow
No tomorrow at all
I can still remember
The way we used to dance
On the edge of life
You fill my senses
Can't forget you
Can't desert you
Can't stop
Thinking about you
Can't forget
Can't desert you
Can't stop
thinking about you
I can still see you in my eyes
I can still feal you in my arms
I can still hear the whisper in my ears
I can't forget you
I can stlll remember
The things you used to do
Do to me so gently
I can still remember
The way we used to dance
On the edge of life
You fill my senses
Darling
Can't forget you
Can't desert you
Can't stop
Thinking about you
Can't forget you
Can't desert you
Can't stop
I can still..
Can't forget
Can't desert you
Can't stop
Thinking about you
Thinking about you
Tenderly
You came to me so tenderly
And for a day the world was ours
I will never forget although time may pass by
How you came to me so tenderly
The night was cold and it felt so old
Until you came with your youthful flame
And suddenly like freed from spell
The night felt young and hot again
And now that time has passed
I still remember your tenderness
Just the thought brings the warmest breeze to my memory
When you came to me so tenderly
Touch me again so tenderly
And I'll survive every day
Cause I'm burning inside, by your sparkling side
Since you came to me so tenderly
Declaration
Baby can't you see the sign
The sparkle in my eyes is bound to blow
Baby, is the tension so high
The smile on my face is about to attack
It's a declaration of love, the word is out
It's a declaration of love, there is no doubt
Baby, it's the beat of my heart
The music that you hear is making you glad and sad
Baby, won't say a word
Silent as the night, you've already heard, no alert
Raining in my heart
Love is tragic, love is fun
Love is magic, love is a gun
Love is quiet, love is mad
Love is funny, love is sad, I confess...
Its raining in my heart cause of you
Since weve been apart
Im in solitude
Its raining in my heart cause of you
Love is soothing or it hurts, so badly
Love is faithful or it flirts, so madly
Love is gentle or it thrills
Love is trouble, love will kill, I confess...
Forever
I want to let you take me where it started
Through the days into the night
Where everybody moved slowly
We had all the night alone
Never caught you in the daytime
You showed me things that i never knew before
Then you went away and came back
Ive been patient for so long cause
All this time that Ive been waiting
for this moment to come alive
And all my life Ive known for sure
that youd be coming back for more
Forever, never gonna let it go forever
Picked up an old daydream
Let it take me where I want to be
Where verybody moved slowly
And the world was silently asleep
Now show me where you soend the daytime
Show mw all that I never knoe before
Ill let you go away and come back
Ive realized that its everlasting
All this time that Ive been waiting
for this moment to come alive
And all my life Ive known for sure
that youd be coming back for more
Forever was never till now
Overcome
I wish that everything
Could be the way it was
But too many things have changed
Time has come, to fulfill promises
Touching came easy
But holding takes more
We shall overcome...
I cry, but I've run out of tears
You used to lick them dry
To ease my pain
Do what it takes to make me
Cry again
Tears are the fruits of unconsciousness
We shall overcome...
I smile, but it's lost without you
You used to make me smile within
My heart
Do what it takes to make me smile again
You know the secrets, you made the code
We shall overcome...
Virtual affair
Are you there behind the silence
Are you there to strike my chords
Do we exist or are we tripping
Somehwere, do you feel me
Virtual affair does exist anywhere
Virtual affair does exist
There are no boundaries to be broken
The silence is a hideaway
Take a chance if you feel free
Somewhere, do you feel me
You only live twice or so it seems
One life for yourself and one for your dreams
You drift through the years and life seems tame
Till one dream appears and love is its name
And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone
This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice
And love is a stranger who'll beckon you on
Don't think of the danger or the stranger is gone
This dream is for you, so pay the price
Make one dream come true, you only live twice
Make one dream come true, you only live twice
You only
You only live twice
