1. Emulate My Love
I had an idea for this song lyrically, but as soon as the song was
finished musically I just new it had to have a different feel so I
sat down and rewrote the lyrics. And there you have it. The
arrangement is a bit different to the norm with a pre chorus added.
2. Baby
Well this one of course was written about a beautiful baby boy whom
I love dearly. The words were written a year or so before the song.
When we wrote this piece of music the lyrics just seemed to fit in
perfectly. Like it was meant to be. It’s kinda funky.
3. Give me Wings
This is the very first song I recorded with Andy but it started out
as a ballad. Never really liked it. Made a few lyrical changes then
completely scrapped the music and rewrote it
In your face and passionate. Its a beauty.
4. Ain't no Cruise
Well this all came together really quickly and easily and I laugh
every time I hear it. It’s a fab song.
5. Pulsing Beat
I had this urge to write something with a dance feel that was
uplifting. The music was written first and the words just came to
me after listening to the music a few times.
Love singing this song.
6. Temptation
This song started out totally different than it is now. We wrote
some music that Andy liked so he used the original version and we
changed my version to suit me. I changed the lyrics a few times and
ummed and ahhed until I found these lyrics which I had written a few
years back. They work perfectly.
7. Someone
The lyrics to Someone were written one night in the wee hours of the
morning while I was sitting out the back drinking champers and
smoking cigars. We then wrote the music to fit with the lyrics a
couple of weeks later. I love this song. Everyone has someone
special they can relate this song to.
8. Shards of Heart
I wrote the words to this song around the beginning of 2001. I then
sat on them for over a year until we wrote a piece of music which
just worked. A very strong song with lots of passion.
9. Broken Love
We wrote the music first for this song, then I sat on it for a few
weeks deciding what feel the song needed to have. I had written some
words whilst travelling around Australia which I pulled apart and
put back together giving you Tortured Mind. It’s groovy
10. Short Relief
The lyrics to this song were written late one night while I was
drinking champers and smoking cigars AGAIN and contemplating life in
general. The words wrote themselves. The music just seemed to fall
into place a few weeks later. Funny that. It’s a real mood song.
11. Stained
I wrote the lyrics first for this song and then we put the music to
it. I wanted the song to be deep dark and sad but with passion which
I think we achieved. One of my favourites.
12. Sweet Revenge
The melody and the lyrics to this song were banged out on a keyboard
in my lounge room years ago. There have been a few small adjustments
to the music since then. But it’s basically how it was originally
written. I’m not sure what inspired me to write the words but I
still think they're fantastic.
