HALLOO, AND WELCOME DUA LIPA FANS *AND* FEAR STREET FANS! 😀
This is the official music video for White Town’s 1997 global hit ‘Your Woman’.
*IT’S NOT STAR WARS!!!*
In the ’90s, I bought the CD soundtrack for Dennis Potter’s ‘Pennies From Heaven’ and on it was an amazing 1932 song called ‘My Woman,’ by Lew Stone And The Monseigneur Band, vocal by Al Bowlly.
(This itself was a cover of the original by none other than Bing Crosby!)
And that song started with a beautiful trumpet hook…
My track was the first to sample that catchy hook, and it’s now been sampled by Dua Lipa in her new track “Love Again”.
‘Your Woman’ reached number 1 in the charts in the UK, Spain and Iceland, and was Top 10 in 12 other countries as well as reaching number 23 in the US Billboard chart.
Lyrics:
Just tell me what you’ve got to say to me,
I’ve been waiting for so long to hear the truth,
It comes as no surprise at all, you see,
So cut the crap and tell me that we’re through.
Now I know your heart,
I know your mind,
You don’t even know you’re being unkind,
So much for all your highbrow Marxist ways,
Just use me up and then you walk away,
Boy, you can’t play me that way.
Well, I guess what you say is true,
I could never be the right kind of girl for you,
I could never be your woman.
When I saw my best friend yesterday,
She said she never liked you from the start,
Well me, I wish that I could claim the same, but you always knew you held my heart.
And you’re such a charming, handsome man,
Now I think I finally understand,
Is it in your genes?,
I don’t know, but I’ll soon find out,
That’s for sure,
Why did you play me this way?
Well, I guess what you say is true,
I could never be the right kind of girl for you,
I could never be your woman.
Well, I guess what they say is true,
I could never spend my life with a man like you,
I could never be your woman.
