Skye Edwards (born 27 May, 1972 as Shirley Klarise Yonavive Edwards) is a British singer, born in East London. Until 2003, she was the lead singer of the band Morcheeba. Edwards decided to shorten her name to Skye by taking the first letter of each of her names and putting them together. She is married to the bass player Steve Gordon and they have three children. Edwards has sung on two charity collaborations, Perfect Day 1997, in aid of Children in Need and Band Aid 20, in 2004, in aid of famine relief in Sudan, Africa.

Following on from her critically acclaimed debut, Mind How You Go, Skye, former Morcheeba singer often dubbed as the 'Queen of Trip-Hop' with the voice that is 'honey coated' releases her eagerly anticipated 2nd solo album, Keeping Secrets. 'Mind how you go came out in 2006' says Skye. 'I toured Europe doing my own shows and some headline festival slots, I also did shows in America and Canada. At the start of 2007, in between the live shows, I started writing new songs. It wasn't like I sat down and said this is for my 2nd solo record so it was pretty relaxed, no pressure.'

Along with writing partner Steve Gordon, Skye started writing with guitarist John Robertson from her live band. 'We would meet up every now and then and just write for the fun of it.' Skye also collaborated with song writer, Lauren Christy and re-connected with the now LA based Gary Clark, with whom she wrote Love Show, her most well known track from Mind How You Go. It was featured on the award winning TV series Greys Anatomy and after being placed in a pivotal scene, reached number one on iTunes. Love Show saw high rotation in many of the European territories. 'I'm told it was the eighth most played song in Italy' excites Skye 'along with Madonna's Sorry and Crazy by Gnarls Barclay.'

Despite the success of Mind How You Go, both of the record labels that Skye was signed to, folded. 'I didn't have much luck with record companies' remembers Skye. 'I had a successful album and I did a cover of Gorillaz Feel Good Inc. which started to get lots of air play, especially in the UK. Then disaster struck and Karova (a subsidiary of Warner) no longer existed.' A few months later, the same thing happened to the US label, Cordless. 'I couldn't believe it!' says Skye. 'It was really disappointing.' You might expect to talk to a bitter woman, but you get the complete opposite. 'There's always an upside. I was able to get my album back from Warner, so now I own it.'

When it came to recording Keeping Secrets, Skye enlisted the help of two talented producers. Alexis Smith who, before going it alone, worked with producer Marius De Vries, programming on records for the likes of Rufus Wainwright and Bebel Gilberto. And Ivor Guest, producer of the latest Grace Jones album, 'Hurricane' and music composer of the Oscar winning documentary, Taxi To The Dark Side. 'I initially started recording with the intention of getting a record deal half-way through, but then thought "If we've recorded five songs, why not record the rest" So, continued to drive it forward without a label coming in and taking over.' Says Skye. 'I made all of the decisions, with the support from Steve and my manager. It's been a real eye opener! And I've been amazed at how much can be achieved without a record company.'

From the edgy pop of 'Almost Killed Me', to the tenebrific paranoia of 'Monsters Demons', these new recordings will be a special treat for fans. Here is an album that is moving, evocative and prepossessing. And where Skye's first album took on a more autobiographical tone, Keeping Secrets echoes her seductive personality with the stories that she tells. 'I can't help but be inspired by my surroundings and write from my own experiences' says Skye 'But this time I wanted some of the songs to be less about me.' We hear that on tracks like the spine-tingling 'Wrong Alright ' with its swampy, noir undertones or the sensuous, 'Boo Hoo', which is bereft one moment and somehow uplifting the next. Keeping Secrets is at once achingly gorgeous, and offers pockets of darkness with prodigious song-writing and lucullan arrangements that help frame Skye’s heavenly vocals.

Skye has been touring in advance of her album release, playing new songs including the lead track 'I Believe', another collaboration with U2 producer, Daniel Lanois. Her live performances are always captivating and surprisingly intimate, even in front of large crowds. 'I feel that I can really connect with the listener because they are right there in front of me.' Says Skye. 'I love to sing to them, look them straight in the eye.' Her subtle, East End pronunciation is part of her distinctive singing syntax but Skye is proving to be more than just a beautiful voice. She is a songwriter who is able to work her words and melodic gifts into an array of musical moods.

Love Show

Sit down, give me your hand
I'm gonna tell you the future
I see you, living happily
With somebody who really suits ya
Someone like me

Stand still
Breath in
Are you listening

You don't know
Somebody's aching
Keeping it all in
Somebody won't let go
Of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show

Break down. Give me some time
I don't want the fear to confuse ya
Right now, it's so wrong
But maybe it's all in the future with
Someone like you

Stand still. Breath in
Are you listening

You don't know
Somebody's aching. Keeping it all in
Somebody won't let go
Of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show

Maybe truth, maybe lies
Made me want you
Maybe dumb, maybe wise
I don't know

Somebody's aching
Keeping it all in
Somebody won't let go
Of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show
You don't know
Somebody's hurting
Holding it all in
Somebody can't let go
Of his heart but the truth is
It's painless
Letting your love show

Love show
Letting your love show

Stop Complaining

I don't know why
But I cant seem to find the right melody today
I can't make the words fit how I feel
I don't know when
Was the last time that I slept the whole night through
And when morning comes around I feel tired

I woke up from the strangest dream
With a dancing dog and a beauty queen
They said nothing, nada, niente
I'm empty

But Your here and I'm here
So I stop complaining it could be raining
And I see the answer in your eyes
Your here and I'm here
I keep on singing just keep on singing
Singing

Do you know why
I cant seem to find the right melody today?
Can't make the words fit how I feel
Do you know when
Was the last time that I slept the whole night through?
Another morning comes around, I feel tired

I drive down to the rodeo
Gonna ride a bull in a video
But nothing, nada, neiente.
I'm still empty

But your here and I'm here
So I stop complaining it could be raining
And I see the answer in your eyes
Your here and I'm here
I keep on singing just keep on singing
Singing singing singing

Solitary

You said the thing you said and you twisted me up
I don't feel any different but there it is in my head
Stuck like glue, like a molecule
Like my brain, a speeding train
I'll never be the same
Will we always be the same

You did the thing you did, and it twisted me up
Now I'm wrestling with reality
Waiting for the bell to ring
And you kill me, you still me
Come find me, don't loose me
That is all I want, that is all I want

The sky, the rising sun... Solitary
And you my only one... Solitary

And in the morning when I wash my face
I see happy, I see hired
I see ugly, I see peaceful
I'm waiting, running, I'm not angry or wired
I just get a little worried simetimes

Then I do the things I do, but they still twist me up
I'm wrestling with my sanity
Listening for the bell to ring
And I kill me, I fool me
Can't find me, don't loose me
That is all I want, that is all I want

The sky, the rising sun... Solitary
And you my only only one... Solitary
No time, no end believe... Solitary

You did the thing you did, and it twisted me up
Now I'm wrestling with reality
Waiting for the bell to ring
And you kill me, you still me
Come find me, don't loose me
That is all I want, that is all I want

The sky, the rising sun... Solitary
And you my only one... Solitary
The shore is to the sea... Solitary
And in theend we'll be... Solitary

Calling

I'm calling, wanting you near
Your stalling, I feel you fear
You've been hurt before
I understand why your insecure
I'm falling cos' I'm so sure

Come on, come on, come on
Come in closer now
Tell me what you got to loose
Come on, come on, come on
Come in closer now
How can you refuse...
Me

I'm flying and you could be too
But your crying, what's holding you

Love is calling...
Open up and let life shine
I'm calling...

Come in closer now
Tell me what you got to loose
Come in closer now...

What's Wrong With Me

I try not to think about the distance of the setting sun
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the saints and sinners, who have more fun?
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the evil empires and stupid fools
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the regulations and the rules
I try not to think about the rain

Oh oh oh
What's wrong with me?

I try not to think about the money, the mortgage on my home
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the voice mails, e-mails, angry females on the phone
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the job and all responsibilities
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about my TV, BBC or MTV
I try not to think about the rain

Oh oh oh
What's wrong with me?
Oh oh oh oh
What's wrong with me?

I try not to think about the planets when they line up wrong
I try not to think about the rain
I try not to think about the future or the future, so on and so on
I try not to think about the rain

Oh oh oh
What's wrong with me?
Oh oh oh oh
What's wrong with me?

No other

Take my hand come with me
See what we can find
Can't go wrong garuntee
I will ease your mind
You can stand or run with me
Leave it all behind
Just one day, I can make it better

All I want. All I need
No other love Just you
No other love than you

If you can, lay with me
Count the stars at night
I don't know much astrology
For you they shine so bright
Make a plan, stay with me
It could be so right
Just one day, I can make it better

All I want, all I need
No other love Just you
No other love than you
No other love Just you
No grealer love than you

Tell Me All About Your Day

Tell me all about your day.
So good to hear from you.
Tell me bout your day.
Feels good to speak to you.

I'm in New Orleans.
It's just like you'd imagine,
Places selling jambalaya and cheap voodoo dolls
Old guys busking, little black boys dancing
They got beer bottle tops on the bottom of their shoes.

Every one is drinking, but me.
It's St Patrick's day.
Drunken people on the streets, faces painted grassy green.
In the French Quarter,
A blonde in a red bra waves from the window.
Just like a slow motion a movie.

Tell me all about your day.
So good to hear from you.
Tell me bout your day.
Feels good to speak to you.

So far. So far away.
So many towns it feels like the same day.
I'm so far, so far from you.
All this distance spoils the view.

As I was walking I came across a thrift store
I found a cute dress in there,
Hanging on the damp brick wall.
It's a little bit old but glitzy, I like it
I'm gonna wear it at the show tonight for sure.

Tell me all about your day.
So good to hear from you.
Tell me bout your day.
Feels good to speak to you.

So far. So far away.
So many towns it feels like the same day
I'm so far. so far from you.
All this distance spoils the view

All the promises

Such a shame, do you sit and wonder
Was it just a waste of time
We broke the chain and left the cross behind
You can keep the frame, I don't want the part that's time

I don't need you to talk to me
Or cast a light on this broken dream
With all that we've seen, beginning to end
All I believed, all the promises...

Who's to blame, I won't point the finger
You can put me first in line
So loves a stain on a shirt like old red wine
But, just like pain, all will fade in time

I don't need you to talk to me
or cast a light on this shattered dream
With all that we'll be, never again
All we believed, all the promises...

I don't need you to comfort me
Or shine a light on this shattered dream
With all that we'll be, never again
All we believed, all the promises

I don't need you
I believed all the promises

Powerful

Then we both went home
On separate trains
When the heart had gone out of it

But I'm gonna cry, I wanna laugh again
I'm not gonna try when it isn't happening
I'll just let it go

Can you feel me now, powerful
Do you hear me now
Every things possible
Wonderful, feel like I'm beautiful

When we both look back
We don't see the same
I don't need to deal with that hurt again

Cause I'm ready to fly
I've gotta spread my wings
I don't wanna die without living
Just let me go

Can you feel me now, powerful
Do you hear me now
Every things possible
Wonderful, I feel like I'm beautiful

You told me that I could never love
With out you
I didn't argue with the fact
I guess I was happy with that
At the time

Can you feel me now, powerful
Do you hear me now, any things possible
Wonderful, feel like I'm beautiful
Natural, lyrical, no longer cynical

Then we both went home...

Say Amen

How do we start this
How do we keep it going strong
Do we know how, do we know here we belong
How do we get this
How do we stop it going wrong
Do we know why, do we know when...

Should we hold on tight, maybe
Start a fight or shall we give it up and try again
should we let it go, maybe
Put on a show or shall we fall to our knees and say Amen

Why do we want this
Why do we crave it every day
Will we know who Will we know what we have to say
Why do we feel this
Why do we need find the way
Will we know when, or even if we have to pay

Should we hold on tight, maybe
Start a fight or shall we give it up and try again
Should we let it go, maybe
Put on a show or shall we fall to our knees and say Amen

Say Amen, say Amen
Say Amen, for all your wishes
Scarlet roses from your garden, cover me
Say Amen
See me in you shadow
Before you let me be

Say Amen
Across you river
Drown me in your water, follow me
Say Amen
Answer my reflection
Before you let me be

Say Amen
To all my wonder
With simple strenght
A simple daughter, only me
Say Amen
See me in your shadow
Before you let me be

Say Amen
Across you river
Drown me in your water, follow me
Say Amen
Before you let me be

Jamaica days

The ships they sail on, on my wall paper wall
I don't know why
London rains fall, Jamaica days call
I don't know why

Your eyes are blinding my urban ways
I need to know your sunshine rays
I don't know why

The silver in my night is your silver hair and my flight
I don't know why
For the price of eleven quid
Mama Travelled as kid away from home
Don't know why

Your eyes are brightness just like mine
Too much silence too much time
I don't know why

Your eyes are blinding my urban ways
I need to know Jamaica days
I don't know why

The ships they sail on
My wall paper wall
Mama I know why

Keeping Secrets

I Believe

I can tell you're feeling lost
Wondering round without a clue
The road you will cross
Take my hand I'll lead you

Now, I don't know it all
But if you fall
I'll be there for you
The things that you can be
Are there for us to see

I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe in all the things that you do
(All the things you do)
I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe

I've seen you and your battle scars
Caught up in these rattling chains
I wonder how you are
Inside this so called fame

I wanna fill your empty shell
Free you from the spell
Throw away the blame

I'm gonna set your soul at ease
Thaw you from the freeze

I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe in all the things that you do
(All the things you do)
I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe

We're travelling full speed
We got all that we need
Let's go out on that ride

It's time for you and me
And all that we can be

I believe in you
I believe in all the things that you do
I believe in you
(I believe in you)
I believe in all the things that you do
(All the things you do)
I can tell you're feeling lost
(I believe in you)
(I believe, I believe in you)
I believe in you
(All the things you do)
(I believe, I believe in you)
Yes, I do
I can tell you're feeling lost
(I believe in you)
(I believe, I believe in you)
I believe in you
(All the things you do)
(I believe, I believe in you)
Yes, I do
I believe
(I believe in you)
(I believe, I believe in you)
I believe in you
I believe in you

Boo Hoo

Boo hoo
That's you crying in the night
And your fist are clenched so tight
Keeping secrets

Screw you
That's what you would love to say
And you'd kick 'em out the way
But instead you're silent

But what if for one day
Just one time
Maybe you might try
Might try to

Scream it
If something isn't right
Tell somebody else
What you fear
What you're feeling

Scream it
Don't keep it to yourself
All of the rocks you got on your mind
Go to the top and throw them down one by one

Poor me
That's you drinking once again
'Cause it helps you to pretend
When you say it's alright

Save me
That's you’re feeling so alone
Going through this on your own
You don't have to

So what if for one day
Just one time
Maybe you might try
Might try to

Scream it
If something isn't right
Tell somebody else
What you fear
What you're feeling

Scream it
Don't keep it to yourself
All of the rocks you got on your mind
Go to the top and throw them down one by one
Throw them down one by one

Boo hoo
That's you crying

Scream it
Don't keep it to yourself

Scream it
If something isn't right
Tell somebody else
What you fear
What you're feeling

Scream it
Don't keep it to yourself
All of the rocks you got on your mind
Go to the top and throw them down one by one
Throw them down one by one

Boo hoo
That's you crying in the night
And your fist are clenched so tight
Keeping secrets

Not Broken

Oh no no oh no
Not broken
In two not you

Like the seed you grow
Under it all
You're roots take hold

Smooth out the creases
Then you'll see

And when you fall
Down in between them all
Here you are whole
Not broken

On and on hold on
Not broken
Just loose at the seems

Oh no no don't let go
Just listen
Goodness increases
You will see

And when you fall
Down in between them all
Here you are whole
Not broken

Leave it behind
All of the pain inside
Here you will be
Not broken

Through the crowed patchwork souls
Move closer
Closer

And when you fall
Down in between them all
Here you are whole
Not broken

Leave it behind
All of the pain inside
Here you will be
Not broken

You will see
You will see

The Shape I'm In

Black sky
White cloud
Gemini
Sometimes a little

Outside
Of what's in
I head left
To what's in the middle

What about the truth
What about the love
It's all about the skin I'm in
And I'm happy

And it's not about the show
It's not about the game
It's all about the fame
And ain't it a shame

Squares don't fit
Triangles hate circles
As they make a different sound
They end up going round

But I'm not the only one
Who's dreaming I'm falling
When I wake up where I land
I know you'll understand
The shape I'm in

Black sky
Blue day
Join in
If you feel the weather

I'm right
You're wrong
You back down
We can come together

What about the truth
What about the love
It's all about the skin I'm in
And I'm happy

And it's not about the show
It's not about the game
It's all about the fame
And ain't it a shame

Squares don't fit
Triangles hate circles
’Cause they make a different sound
And they end up going round

But I'm not the only one
Who's dreaming I'm falling
When I wake up where I land
I know you'll understand
The shape I'm in

You can not push me around
I'll get back up off the ground
Don't underestimate the force of nature

And if you tear me apart
You'll see the shape of a heart
It isn't beating 'cause it loves to hate you

Squares don't fit
Triangles hate circles
And they make a different sound
They end up going round

But I'm not the only one
Who's dreaming I'm falling
When I wake up where I land
I know you'll understand
The shape I'm in

Squares don't fit
Triangles hate circles
'Cause they make a different sound
And they end up going round

But I'm not the only one
Who's dreaming I'm falling
When I wake up where I land
I know you'll understand
The shape I'm in
The shape I'm in
The shape I'm in

Monsters Demons

The things that I imagine
When time gives me a moment to breath
Could never really happen

At least not in this life time
And this is what I wanna believe
Might never ever happen

But my eyes can be deceiving
They show me what I don't want to see
The things I think will happen

Monsters, demons
We dream them up and we bring them to life
They are not real, I know it

Monsters demons
We give them wings and we teach them to fly
They're taking, taking over my mind

And now the light is fading
The shadows seem to dance on my wall
And I think it really happens

Bad dreams that keep repeating
I'm trying to make sense of it all
Where nothing ever happens

Clock To Stop

It's all good it's alright
Cut the strings to the kite
Send it flying

Who's to say
What this means
There's some truth
In between
Where we're lying
Here's to happiness
Caving in on us

And the clock on the wall
Says it's quarter past going too well
As you go round again
Half way to heaven
You do a one-eighty for hell
What goes up comes down again
Falling stumbling crawling out of love
Tell the clock on the wall to stop

It's all good it's okay
Something new
Thrown away in confusion

Now we know what this means
Things come clear after the dreams
And illusions
Here's to happiness
Caving in on us

And the clock on the wall
Says it's quarter past going too well
As you go round again
Half way to heaven
You do a one-eighty for hell
What goes up comes down again
Falling stumbling crawling out of love
Tell the clock on the wall to stop

And the clock on the wall
Says it's quarter past going too well
As you go round again
Half way to heaven
You do a one-eighty for hell
What goes up comes down again
Falling stumbling crawling out of love
Tell the clock on the wall to stop

When the clock on the wall
Says it's quarter past going too well
Will you go round again
Half way to heaven
You turn and head straight for hell
What goes up comes down again
Clock on the wall
It’s quarter past going too well
And it goes round again
Round again, round again, round again

Almost Killed Me

Oh no not I
I will not cry today
I won't be found
Dead on the ground
A year from yesterday

I'm not on the floor
Locked behind the door
Not me

I'm not in my bed
Pillow on my head
With a razor blade
For the mess you made
Crazy

It almost killed me but
I'm still alive
I'm looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no

Oh no not you
I thought I had erased you from my brain
I must remove the memory of you
Time and time again

When you’re on the floor
Locked behind the door
Think of me, baby

When you're in your bed
Pillow on your head
With a razor blade
It's the mess you made
You'll see

It almost killed me but
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no

You're lying on the tracks to the railway
You’re trying to make me see it from a different view
Well, you always were delusional

Idiot, you did it on the wrong day
'Cause the railway strike's on the whole day through
I hate to have to tell you but
You'll be still alive
Looking up at the sun

I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna hide
Never gonna run from no one
No no no no no, no no no no no no
No no no no no no no no
I’m still alive
I’m looking up at the sun
Never gonna run
No no no no no no no no

Wrong alright

You want it
Got a need taking over
Can't breath

Every night
Ghost in your soul
You're needy
Knee deep alone

As you take your aim
You know it's wrong
But it makes it alright

As you drown
Love goes down
The light in your eye
Won't stay

The you now is not you
No life in your day
All numb

As you take your aim
You know it's wrong
But it makes it alright

And you lose again
You know it wrong
But it make you right

When can we breathe again
When you've had enough
When will we see the end
Have you had enough
How can we be the same
'Cause you can get enough of the love but enough's enough

Undone
Struck dumb
You'll never know
There's a better way

So roll those drums
Know you're over
Now it's over

When you took your aim
You knew it was wrong
But it made you feel alright
But we lost again
So wrong, make it right
So wrong, make it right
Make it right
Make it right

Maybe To Spain

He's heading down south for the winter
Maybe to Spain
It is warmer there

He's trading the white snow
For the orange glow
A place to dream away from cold extremes

Dónde estás mi amor
Where are you my love

He said bad weather gets him down
And now I understand
What he meant when he told me
He's going away
I am the winter’s day

Dónde estás mi amor
Where are you my love
Dónde estás mi amor
Where are you my love...

Exhale

You been so lonely
Broken up inside
Stolen, all untied

You went the long way round
Going nowhere bound
Frozen

But walk on
When you're alone
Call her
She'll carry you home

Her wings will bring you home
Her little wings will bring you home

Up side
Where you're free to glide
It's awesome
You'll exhale with delight

All a daze
Don't gotta chase the dogs away
Won't let 'em get you get them

So walk on
You're not alone
Call her
She'll carry you home

Her wings will bring you home
Her wings will bring you home

Her wings will bring you home
Bring you home
Her little wings will bring you home...

A View To A Kill

(Duran Duran cover / Hollywood, Mon Amour feat. Skye)

Meeting you
With a view to a kill
Face to face in secret places
Feel the chill
Nightfall covers me
But you know the plans I'm making
Still oversea
Could it be the whole world opening wide
A sacred why
A mystery gaping inside
The weekends, why
Until we

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire

The choice for you
Is the view to a kill
Between the shades
Assassination standing still

The first crystal tears
Fall as snowflakes on your body
First time in years
To drench your skin
With lover's rosy stain

A chance to find the phoenix for the flame
A chance to die
But can we

Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
To fatal sounds of broken dreams
Dance into the fire
That fatal kiss is all we need
Dance into the fire
When all we see
Is the view to a kill

Call Me

(Blondie cover / Hollywood, Mon Amour feat. Skye)

Colour me your colour, baby
Colour me your car
Colour me your colour, darling
I know who you are
Come up off your colour chart
I know where you're coming from

Call me on the line
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me, my love
You can call me any day or night
Call me

Cover me with kisses, baby
Cover me with love
Roll me in designer sheets
I'll never get enough
Emotions come I don't know why
Cover up love's alibi

Call me on the line
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me, oh my love
When you're ready we can share the wine
Call me

Ooh, he speaks the languages of love
Ooh, amore, chiamami, chiamami
Ooh, appelle-moi mon cheri, appelle-moi
Anytime, any place, anywhere, anyway
Anytime, any place, anywhere, any day, anyway

Call me, my life
Call me, call me any anytime
Call me, for a ride
Call me, call me for some overtime
Call me

Come on, give me a call

Don't Go

( Yazoo cover / Nouvelle Vague feat. Skye / Live at London Shepherd's Bush Empire )

Came in from the city
Walked into the door
I turned around when I heard the sound
Of footsteps on the floor

Love just like addiction
Now I'm hooked on you
I need some time to get it right
Your love gonna see me through

Can't stop now, don't you know
I ain't never gonna let you go
Don't go

Baby, make your mind up
Give me what you got
Fix me with your loving
Shut the door and turn the lock

Hey, go get the doctor
The doctor came too late
Another night I feel alright
My love for you can't wait

Can't stop now, don't you know
I ain't never gonna let you go
Don't go

Can't stop now, don't you know
I ain't never gonna let you go
Don't go, don't go

Came in from the city
I walked into the door
I turned around when I heard the sound
Of footsteps on the floor

Said he was a killer
Now I know it's true
I'm dead when you walk out the door
Hey babe, I'm hooked on you

Can't stop now, don't you know
I ain't never gonna let you go
Don't go, don't go...

Feel Good Inc.

( Gorillaz cover / Live at KCRW Digital EP )

The city's breaking down on a camel's back
They'll just have to go 'cause they don't know wack
And all ya fill the streets, it's appealing to see
You won't get undercounted 'cause you're bad and free

You got a new horizon, it's an ephemeral style
In a melancholy town where we never smile
And all I wanna hear is the message beep
My dreams, they gotta catch me 'cause I don't get sleep, no

Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever, hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sticking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
It's everybody in

Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good

Windmill, windmill for the land
Turn forever, hand in hand
Take it all in on your stride
It is sticking, falling down
Love forever, love is free
Let's turn forever, you and me
Windmill, windmill for the land
It's everybody in

Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good
Feel good

Heart Of Glass

( Blondie cover / Nouvelle Vague feat. Skye / Live at London Shepherd's Bush Empire )

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

In between
What I find is pleasing and I'm feeling fine
Love is so confusing, there's no peace of mind
If I fear I'm losing you, it's just no good
You teasing like you do

Once I had a love and it was divine
Soon found out I was losing my mind
It seemed like the real thing but I was so blind
Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Once I had a love and it was a gas
Soon turned out had a heart of glass
Seemed like the real thing, only to find
Much to mistrust, love's gone behind

Lost inside
Adorable illusion and I cannot hide
I'm the one you're using, please don't push me aside
We could made it cruising, yeah

It's just no good
You teasing like you do

This Is Not America

(David Bowie cover / Hollywood, Mon Amour feat. Skye / Live at L'Européen, 21-01-09)

A little piece of you
The little peace of me
Will die
Oh this is not America

Blossom falls to bloom
This season
Promise not to stare
Too long
For this is not a miracle

There was a time
The wind that blew so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have
The faintest idea
For this is not America

Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
This is not America

Snowman melting from the inside
Falcon spirals to the ground
So bloody red tomorrows clouds

A little piece of you
The little peace of me
Will die
Oh this is not America

There was a time
The storm that blew so pure
For this could be the biggest sky
And I could have
The faintest idea
For this is not America

Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
Sha la la la la
This is not America
This is not America, no
This is not America, no
No, no, no
No...
This is not America
No...
This is not America
Sha la la la la
