We are proud to
introduce the new album 'Out Of Control' by Gloria Tells. A magic collection of
hopeful, dreamy and feelgood Soul with expressive and emotional vocals.
So many questions that I wanna ask
But I can’t find a reason quite yet
You always find a small excuse to leave
What’s your excuse to make cry
My love was lost when you came and took it all
My mind says stop but my heart is screaming loud
Don’t go
Just learn
Don’t say
With me
Ii’m in
Complete
I gotta mixed the music to make my mid off
How can I love you when you’re not around
How can I let you let me down now
How can I long for you feeling so small
Love should be everything or not at all.
I CAN’T HOLD ON

Karla
Bonoff (born December 27, 1951) is an American singer-songwriter. While Bonoff has released a
number of albums, she is primarily known for her songwriting. Bonoff's
songs include "Home," covered by Bonnie Raitt,
"Tell Me Why"
by Wynonna Judd, and
"Isn't It Always Love" by Lynn Anderson.
Most
notably, Linda Ronstadtrecorded several Bonoff songs, including three tracks on the 1976
album Hasten Down
the Wind("Someone To Lay Down Beside
Me", "Lose Again" and "If He's Ever Near"), which
introduced Bonoff to a mass audience, and "All My Life",
a 1989 duet with Ronstadt and Aaron Neville.
Karla
Bonoff is the RIAAGold-certifiedfirst album by singer/songwriter Karla Bonoff. It
includes several of Bonoff's compositions which had previously been prominently
recorded: three by Linda Ronstadt("Lose
Again", "If He's Ever Near", "Someone to Lay Down Beside
Me") and one by Bonnie Raitt("Home").
Rolling Stone'sStephen Holder called the album an impressive debut marred only by
comparisons to Linda Ronstadt. Saying "Bonoff's approach is
softer, plainer and more tentative." But
concluding, "[t]he consistency of the material confirms a major writing
talent; the performances show a promising singer."
AllMusic'sWilliam Ruhlmann noted retrospectively that "despite Bonoff's
competent singing, which actually better accentuated the lyrics of her songs
than Ronstadt's, it was hard for her to get out from under the shadow of the
members of her peer group who had preceded her."
[Verse
1]
Oh baby, this time it's goodbye
And you can be sure that I won't cry
Our love is just a faded story
I'm walking down the road
And you just got to let me go 'cause
[Chorus]
I can't hold on
I can't hold on
I can't hold on anymore
[Verse 2]
Well, what was that sweet lullaby
And were all those promises just lies
Well, I was just a fool to love you
I knew it all along
I can't look down, I know I'm falling
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't hold on
I can't hold on
I can't hold on anymore
[Bridge]
When you act the way that you do
I want to scream and shout
You keep on playing games
I walk around the block and I think maybe you'll
change
But just when it seems we've got it all worked out
You start naming names
I don't believe that I was the one to blame
[Verse 3]
And maybe next time you'll cry
When someone like me says goodbye
You'll wake up when she's gone and wonder
How you could let her go
But look at me, I'm going under
[Chorus]
'Cause I can't hold on
I can't hold on
I can't hold on anymore
No
I can't hold on
I can't hold on
I can't hold on anymore

fairly inauspicious upon initial release, "Relax" finally reached Mnumber one on the UK singles charton 22 January 1984, ultimately becoming one of the most
controversial and most commercially successful records of the decade. The
single eventually sold a reported 2 million copies in the UK alone, making it
the seventh best-selling single in the UK Singles Chart's
history. Following the release of the group's second single, "Two Tribes",
"Relax" rallied from a declining UK chart position during June 1984
to climb back up the UK charts and re-attain the number 2 spot behind "Two
Tribes" at number 1, making them the only act at the time to have occupied
the top two simultaneously apart from The Beatlesand John Lennon.
Upon its release in the United States, "Relax"
repeated its slow UK progress. In its initial release, it peaked
at number 67 in May 1984. In January 1985, it re-entered the Billboard Hot 100at number 70, eventually reaching number 10 in March.
The song
won Best British Single at the 1985 Brit Awards.
The song
featured on the soundtrack of the films Body Doubleand T2 Trainspotting, in the
game, Grand Theft
Auto: Vice City Storiesin the
fictional in-game radio station Wave 103,

Robert
Allen Palmer (19 January 1949–26 September 2003) was an English
singer-songwriter, musician and record producer. He was known for his powerful,
distinctive, gritty and soulful voice, sartorial elegance and for combining soul, jazz, rock, pop, reggaeand blues.
Palmer's
involvement in the music industrybegan in the 1960s, covered four decades and included a spell with
the band Vinegar Joe.
He found success both in his solo career and with the Power
Station, and had Top 10songs in both the United Kingdom and the United States in the 1980s.
Three of his hit singles, "I Didn't Mean
to Turn You On", "Addicted to
Love" and "Simply
Irresistible", were accompanied with
stylish music videos directed by British fashion photographer Terence
Donovan.
Palmer

an MTV Video
Music Awardand two Brit Awardnominations
for Best British Male Solo Artist.
He died aged 54, following a heart attack on 26 September 2003.

"Addicted to Love" was accompanied by an iconic and much-imitated music video, directed
by Terence
Donovan, in which Palmer is surrounded by a bevy of
near-identically clad, heavily made-up (and appropriately pouty) female "musicians,"
either mimicking or mocking the painting style of Patrick Nagel. In
September 1986, Palmer performed "Addicted to Love" at the 1986 MTV
Video Music Awardsin Los Angeles, California. In
1987, he won the Grammy Award for Best Male Rock Vocal Performancefor "Addicted to Love". At the 1987 ,Brit Awards, Palmer

major influences, New Orleans bluesartist Earl King.
For the
album, Palmer collaborated with two former members from the Power
Station, guitarist Andy Taylorand drummer Tony Thompson.

contributions from Chaka Khanand
notable session musicians such as Guy Pratt,
Wally Badarou, Jeff Bova, Eddie Martinez, and Jack Waldman(who
died a year after the album's release).

orchestra.
Your
lights are on, but you're not home
Your mind is not your own
Your heart sweats, your body shakes
Another kiss is what it takes
You can't sleep, you can't eat
There's no doubt, you're in deep
Your throat is tight, you can't breathe
Another kiss is all you need
Ohh oohh
You like to think that you're immune to the stuff...oh
yeah
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it
You're addicted to love
You see the signs, but you can't read
You're runnin' at a different speed
You heart beats in double time
Another kiss and you'll be mine, a one track mind
You can't be saved
Oblivion is all you crave
If there's some left for you
You don't mind if you do
Ohh oohh
You like to think that you're immune to the stuff
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
You know you're gonna have to face it
You're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Might as well face it, you're addicted to love
Your lights are on, but you're not home
Your will is not your own
Your heart sweats and teeth grind
Another kiss and you'll be mine
Ohh oohh
You like to think that you're immune to the stuff
It's closer to the truth to say you can't get enough
