Biography

Jamaican singer, actress and supermodel born on May 19, 1948 [some sources claim 1950 or 1952] in Spanish Town, Jamaica, West Indies. She moved to Syracuse, New York, in her early teens, where her parents had relocated and founded the Apostolic Church of Jesus Christ. She moved to New York at 18 and began a modelling career that took her to Paris where she worked for [a1112433], [a1938466] and [a3909690] and photographers such as [a1493522] and [a2887188]. While in Paris, she branched out into a recording career, first as a disco diva, working with [a=Tom Moulton], before evolving towards a reggae / new wave sound created at [l264020] with [a5064] and marked by striking visuals created by her then partner [a250086]. Her first connection with music perhaps is her uncredited appearance on the cover of the 1973 reissue of [r3536194]. She published her autobiography in 2015, I'll Never Write My Memoirs (a line taken from her song Art Groupie), co-written with [a231640], in which she comes back on her early childhood in Jamaica, denies some longstanding rumours and fuels a few new ones. Grace is the granddaughter of [a3960002], daughter of [a1272793], sister of [a3849585] and [a1291649], and mother of [a1275577].

LYRICS

Every night, to take a walk on high to see, The shadows of the moonlight, when this guy, Began to follow me, and now you see. Thats the trouble. Then he turned my head, to my surprise, He stared so seriously, in my eyes and said, "Why, I'd like for you to come on home woth me." Thats the trouble, Every man I see, thats the trouble. Taking every little thing so heavily, Thats the trouble if you wanna' let you be, Thats the trouble if you really wanna' be free. When I did not realise, he was the, Serious type of guy, and I ran his [?], And said "Will you marry me?" Thats the trouble, Every man I see, thats the trouble. Taking every little thing so heavily, Thats the trouble if you wanna' let you be, Thats the trouble if you really wanna' be free.
