Biography

Dutch pop/jazz singer, born 26 April 1981 in Amsterdam, The Netherlands. In 2007, Caro Emerald was called upon to cut a demo for producers Jan van Wieringen, David Schreurs and Canadian songwriter Vincent Degiorgio. Caro seized the opportunity and recorded "Back It Up". Following a performance on a local Dutch TV station, the song entered the Dutch singles chart and remained there for 34 weeks. With only one track in the repertoire, David, Vincent, Jan and Caro started working on a full album, inspired by films and music from the 1940s and 1950s. Second single "A Night Like This" reached #1 on the Dutch singles chart in January 2010. Debut album Deleted Scenes From The Cutting Room Floor was released in the same week and entered the albums chart at #1; reaching Platinum status within 6 weeks. Overall, the album spent 30 weeks at #1, breaking a record set by Michael Jackson's Thriller, and it sold 260.000 copies within the year in the Netherlands alone. It is IFPI-certified Platinum with sales of over 1.3 million in Europe. Follow-up album The Shocking Miss Emerald was released in May 2013. The European arts, entertainment and fashion scene of the 1920s-1960s set the stage for this album. Like Caro's debut album, it entered the Dutch albums chart at #1. Both albums broke various sales records in the Netherlands, and Caro and the team received various awards including an MTV EMA Award (Best Dutch/Belgian Act), an EBBA Award, a Goldene Kamera and an Echo Award. In August 2022, Van der Leeuw announced she had over time become more and more estranged from the persona of Caro Emerald, and felt a certain look and sound were expected from her. She stated she was heading into a new direction for her career, by herself, as [a=The Jordan]. Three singles were already released at that point.

LYRICS

Little girl, just keep on waiting
For that man to give you a live
You keep on hoping
So this prince can save you
Keep on dreaming his scandalous lie
For your love is he the hero
Does he know that you begging him please
Where angles dare, the devil 's fill that need
In your despair does he get up to leave

At the start of his goodbye
Do you ever realize
That you never get the chance
All you get is lullabies
When smoke begins to fade
And you standing face to face
Does he kiss you in the way to say
You're the other woman, the other woman

Way that dress, the one you rely on (mmmmm)
Slip up high, that shows off your wares
And when he's arriving give him that invitation
Keep on wishing
On his dollars and cares
For your love he is your hero, yes
Even do, you are begging him, please, please
Woman I'm scarred you risks are never-ending
And don't you pretend
You don't live what you dream

At the start of his goodbyes
Do you ever realize
That you never get the chance
All you get is lullabies
When smoke begins to fade
And you standing face to face
Does he kiss you in the way to say
You're the other woman, the other woman
You always be the other woman
You always be the other woman

Baby
Trust me,
I've been there before
You don't
Know him
I know him more

At the start of his goodbye
Do you ever realize
That you never get the chance
All you get is lullabies
When smoke begins to fade
And you standing face to face
Does he kiss you in the way to say
You're the other woman, the other woman
