|
Please enjoy one of my favorite songs, & recording artists of the 80's. LYRICS (and BIO)
"Give me time to realize my crime. Let me love and steal. I have danced inside your eyes, How can I be real? Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry? Precious kisses words that burn me. Lovers never ask you why. In my heart the fires burning. Choose my colour find a star. Precious people always tell me. That's a step a step too far. Words are few, I have spoken. I could waste a thousand years Wrapped in sorrow words are spoken. Come inside and catch my tears You've been talking but believe me, If it's true, you do not know. This boy loves without a reason, I'm prepared to let you go. If it's love you want from me, Then take it away. Everything is not what you see, It's over today ! Do you really want to hurt me? Do you really want to make me cry?" BIOGRAPHY Boy George (born George Alan O'Dowd on 14 June 1961) is an English singer-songwriter, who was part of the English New Romanticism movement which emerged in the early-mid-1980s. His music is often classified as blue-eyed soul, which is influenced by rhythm and blues and reggae. His 1990s and 2000s-era solo music has glam influences such as David Bowie and Iggy Pop. During the 1980s, Boy George was the lead singer of the Grammy and Brit Award winning pop band Culture Club where he became known for his soulful voice and androgynous appearance. He also founded and was lead singer of Jesus Loves You during the period 1989--1992. Being involved in many activities (among them songwriting, DJing, writing books, designing clothes and photography), he has released fewer music recordings in the last decade. *Info from WIKIPEDIA - He has published his autobiography, "Take It Like A Man". |
