you’ve avoided conversation ever since we met in your eyes i see hunger not for me but, just for sex and, if you could just talk to me i know your voice would make me hot i’d let you, baby, get close to me & you could see just what I got chorus: your tongue is for more than just kissin’ learn every word & use it to speak to me your hands are for more than just touchin’ my body, baby your heart is for more than just lovin’ me feel the beats & use them in a song if I knew you better I could love you better if you could hang with me & listen to some music in your soul i see rhythm but only used for sex if you could just dance with me you’d see me sweat, & get real hot I’d let you, baby, grind your body on me & you could feel just what i got (chorus) bridge: hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo (chorus)

if 02:58
If a picture paints a thousand words, Then why can't I paint you? The words will never show the you I've come to know. If a face could launch a thousand ships, Then where am I to go? There's no one home but you, You're all that's left me too. And when my love for life is running dry, You come and pour yourself on me. If a man could be two places at one time, I'd be with you. Tomorrow and today, beside you all the way. If the world should stop revolving spinning slowly down to die, I'd spend the end with you. And when the world was through, Then one by one the stars would all go out, Then you and I would simply fly away

about

When most people hear me sing they think I am a woman. I am a counter-tenor, with a 4 octave vocal range. My voice has often been compared to Karen Carpenter, Sinéad O'Connor, and Jeff Buckley. I have been singing all my life and write on acoustic guitar.

My new album, the retro-electro pop perfect, 'sunshine' is uplifting, and melodic. Recorded with DFA Records engineer, Abe Seiferth, we have woven together influences of 1960s pop and modern electronic music, like Erasure, and The Pet Shop Boys. The glitchy electro-country song, 'go', and the cover of Bread's 1971 hit, 'if', are sadder moments, but the happy synth title track, 'he loves me', and 'feel good' hold the spirit of the album as they celebrate the more fun, and happier times of life. I wrote most of these songs in my mother's home country, Costa Rica, which adds a slight tropical feel to the music, like in 'blue island', and 'pura vida'.

Before the albums release, select songs were tested as singles and played on a few indie radio stations around the world. The tracks caught the ears of club DJs in Europe, and America, and many songs were remixed for the dance floor. I have included two club mixes on the album. The Tim Letteer remix of 'in a song' climbed the Billboard Dance Chart for 15 weeks.
