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

Another day, another night got me thinkin'
What is it with him, he's naturally moving slow
I see him at the corner bar, am I dreamin'
Surrounded by friends, it's got to end, I need to know
Am I just a night of lust, a lost temptation
Is someone like me his destiny he'll never know
I gotta find a way to show my expectations
He ends it where it begins but I won't let go

I know you don't love me
But still I burn for you
I know you don't love me
This flame will die, it's true
My soul barred completely
Don't seem enough for you
I know you don't love me
But the message can't get through

Any man can see that I'm worth the talkin'
Love can be bittersweet when a girl hears "no"
Opportunity knocks, but your doors don't open
But I feel a fire inside that's about to blow

So, sweep me off my feet and show me something different
You know all the tricks, come get your kicks, you know I'm game
You gotta understand a girl needs more than romance
How many chances lost 'till you just run away?

I know you don't love me
But still I burn for you
I know you don't love me
This flame will die, it's true
My soul barred completely
Don't seem enough for you
I know you don't love me
But the message can't get through

Maybe I'm missing the telepathy
There's a disconnection, you don't think of me
I don't really care because I disagree
'Cause I'm the only part of you that you don't see
Maybe I'm missing the telepathy
There's a disconnection, you don't think of me
I don't really care because I disagree
'Cause I'm the only part of you that you don't see

I know you don't love me
But still I burn for you
I know you don't love me
This flame will die, it's true
My soul barred completely
Don't seem enough for you
I know you don't love me
But the message can't get through

(I know you don't love me) I know you don't love me
(But still I burn for you) But still I burn for you
(I know you don't love me)
(This flame will die, it's true) This flame will die, it's true
(My soul barred completely)
Don't seem enough for you
I know you don't love me
