sharleen spiteri jumps on the bandwagon...

...of retro-sounding music a la duffy and amy winehouse...and she's actually done a damn good job...not only did she write and sing the songs, she produced it as well, taking control of every sonic nuance...

it's decidedly different from her old sound when she was with the band TEXAS, but it's still pretty awesome...
steeped in the sound and textures of ’60s Soul, ’50s Rock ‘N’ Roll and Doo-Wop, hers is an album that’s vintage in flavor yet utterly contemporary in spirit

this is actually one of the best tracks on her current album MELODY, called I WONDER...beautiful...i love it! too bad there isn't a vid of it tho...it's just the album cover being shown on this youtube "vid"...




All i know i should come clean
See exactly what i mean
Every chance you get you seem to hurt me more and more
But each hurt makes my mind stronger than before

If your memory serves you well,
Were gonna meet again some day [hey yeaah]
I look back on these things
I said its before its too late

[Chorus]
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel

I'd like to think you'd understand
Now theres someone else holding my hand
Your not the one i love so dont stand in my way
You know my life for me has changed in many ways

If your memory serves you well,
Were gonna meet again some day [hey yeaah]
I look back on these things
I said its before its too late

[Chorus]
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel

With every chance you get
Cause every time we met
Oh you tried to hurt me, hurt me more and more
If your memory serves you well
Were gonna meet again,
I'll look back
I'll look back
I'll look back on these things

[Chorus]
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel
I wonder when you cry
Tell me no lie
Is this how you feel
x2

[I'll look back on these things...]
