This Girl, This Woman. V1: Beneath her soft blonde curls, through her bold red lips, She blew a slow ring of smoke not a kiss. Walked into the room, like she’d been there before, Made her way smoothly cross the floor. Pre-Chorus: Looking so good, what was she feeling? So in control- so appealing. This girl, this woman, this being, this vision. This girl, this woman, this heavenly vision, Inside what was she thinking? Chorus: This girl with the low-cut, figure-hugging dress. Diamonds, curls, cool, finesse. She left so soon, without a glance, Left so soon, so fast, Left so soon, no time, Is she still mine? V2: She wore a low-cut, figure-hugging, little black dress, A thin, white strap around her neck. Cluster of bright, shiny diamonds in her ears, A look –hiding some fears? Pre-Chorus: Looking so good, what was she feeling? So in control- so appealing. This girl, this woman, this being, this vision. This girl, this woman, this heavenly vision, Inside what was she thinking? Chorus: This girl with the low-cut, figure-hugging dress. Diamonds, curls, cool, finesse. She left so soon, without a glance, Left so soon, so fast, Left so soon, no time, Is she still mine? SOLO Bridge: Want you, need you, Love you, fear you, Say you will. Want you, need you, Love you, fear you, Say you’ll still be mine. V3: In the way that she left, in the trail of her scent, She was making clear her intent. With her head held high, with their arms entwined, She was leaving her life with me behind. Chorus: This girl with the low-cut, figure-hugging dress. Diamonds, curls, cool, finesse. She left so soon, without a glance, This girl with the low-cut figure hugging dress, Diamonds, curls, cool, finesse. She left so soon, without a glance, Left so soon, so fast, Left so soon, so fast, Left so soon, no time, She left so soon-no longer mine, No longer mine, No longer mine.

That’s What the Whisky’s For. V1: Nobody knows what the next person’s feeling, Nobody knows what’s in their heads. Struggling with confusion in broad daylight, Reflecting on life, What I haven’t done yet. CH : When I’m feeling down and out, Just want to scream and shout, When I don’t know just which way to turn. That’s when I stop to think baby, That’s when I take a drink, baby That’s what the whisky’s for, V2: Nothing’s better than someone to hold you, Nothing’s worse than being alone, Like a fire burning up with desire, Like the flames, My dreams end up as smoke. CH : When I’m feeling down and out, Just want to scream and shout, When I don’t know just which way to turn. That’s when I stop to think baby, That’s when I take a drink, baby That’s what the whisky’s for, Bridge: Where are you when I need you? Feels like all my hopes have gone, Think I’ll drown in my sorrows, Think I’ll go get stoned. CH 2: When I’m feeling down and out, Just want to scream and shout, When I don’t know just which way to turn. That’s when I stop to think baby, That’s when I take a drink, baby That’s what the whisky’s for, That’s when I stop to think baby, That’s when I take a drink, baby That’s what the whisky’s for, That’s what the whisky’s for, That’s what the whisky’s for, That’s what the whisky’s for, That’s what the whisky’s for.

Take me to the horizon, Raise me up when I fall, Write my name on the wind, Run to me when I call. Ch: Be my lion, be my dove, Be the hand that fits my glove, Be the stars I see at night, And the shining moon above. Be my lion, be my dove, Be the hand that fits my glove, Be the stars I see at night, And the shining moon above. Bridge: Be forever, forever, Be forever my valentine, Forever my love.

Soaking All the Blues Away. CH : Soaking all the blues away, Lie back, drift away, get to dreaming. Soaking all the blues away, Lie back slip away, close to sleeping. 1: Why is life sometimes so strange? Why do the plans get rearranged? Why do we take the hardest way? When we were born to play. CH: Soaking all the blues away, Lie back, drift away, get to dreaming. 2: How come we love, but then we hate? How do we know, what is our fate? How do the flowers know when to grow? The clouds move oh so slow? CH: Soaking all the blues away, Lie back, drift away, get to dreaming. SOLO Bridge: Love or lose, Misunderstood, confused, Feeling thoughtful, feeling puzzled, Bemused. 3: What makes birds sing a pretty tune? What works the sun, what moves the moon? What makes us fear, what makes us pleased? What makes us love with ease? CH: Soaking all the blues away, Lie back, drift away, get to dreaming. Soaking all the blues away, Lie back slip away, close to sleeping.

Don’t Judge Me No More. Verse 1: That snide little aside, That open confrontation, That silence cos you don’t understand. Do you know how much those hurt? Just because he’s in a skirt, Just because she walks with her hand in hand. Verse 2: Maybe you didn’t think, Maybe the wrong assumption, Good reason for the way you stand and stare? Are you saying it’s a sin? The colour of their skin, An affront the way I wear my hair. Chorus: Open up your hearts, Open up your minds, Respect us all, Treat everyone kind Please don’t judge no more, Verse 3: Is it the lines upon his face, Or the fact that she’s a woman, Their religion, illness, being gay? What is it that offends you, Makes it ok to be - so cruel, You have no right to treat them that way. Verse 4: Some choose not to conform, Most don’t have many choices, Not things that can justify the shame, I’ve no problem being me, Look closer you would see, Underneath it we’re really all the same. Chorus : Open up your hearts Open up your minds Respect us all Treat everyone kind Please don’t judge no more Please don’t judge no more Don’t judge me no more.

Brief Encounter Verse 1: I know you need to be alone, Feel the freedom that surrounds you. A foreign beach, a local shore, Months away, a few days more Verse 2: Just lay me gently on my side, If you return while I am sleeping, Whisper softly if you will, Let me know you love me still. Chorus: It was a brief encounter, Not meant to make me love you, A sweet indulgence, To kick start my emotions, A fleeting moment To brighten up my day. Verse 3: You are my solitary lover, Soulmate, best friend. Sometimes a place to lay my body, In dreams of you to rest my head. Verse 4: I wish I lived inside your world Unspoken boundaries be declared Have you ease my distant longings Let hidden feelings be shared. Bridge: Then I’ll feel Kissed by the sun, Caressed by the breeze, Blessed by the beat of your heart. Kissed by the sun, Caressed by the breeze, Hoping this is where it starts. SOLO Chorus: It was a brief encounter, Not meant to make me love you, A sweet indulgence, To kick start my emotions, A fleeting moment, To brighten up my day. To brighten up my day.

Turn On the Moon Chorus: Come over to my place, If you wake in the night I'll be here. Come over to my place, Show me how much you care. Verse: Turn on the moon, So I can see you. Turn on the moon, So I can see too, Endless possibilities Fulfill my fantasies. Slowly free me from anxieties Come over baby won't you please, Let the rhythm Of your sighs soothe me. Bridge: I'm full of wild imaginings, Images and little gems. Imagine what could happen, If we’d only dare to dream. Chorus: Come over to my place, If you wake in the night I'll be here. Come over to my place, Show me how much you care. Solo Bridge: I'm full of wild imaginings, Images and little gems. Imagine what could happen, If we’d only dare to dream.

about

There are two strands running through this album. One is that it was written during a very reflective time in my life and so the songs are inspired by my own reflections upon life and love drawing on my own personal experiences as well as my sometimes vivid imagination.

The other is the influence of 1960’s music. I was a child in the 60’s and that era has always fascinated and inspired me. Music, culture, design, sport. My favourite singer of all time without doubt is Dusty. My favourite tv series is without doubt the “original” Avengers!

It was a sassy, sophisticated, clever and, cool decade. In making the album, it became apparent very early on that we wanted to share that retro feeling, with in some cases some quite obvious references. This work is inspired by that time, and the 60’s are reflected throughout all aspects of it- musically, lyrically and visually.

The storybook insert with the CD is a key feature with Jude telling her very own and very personal story. Beautifully presented. Along with lyrics and the stories behind the songs.
