Biography

Born April 11, 1966 in Rochdale, Lancashire, United Kingdom. British female vocalist whose 1989 debut album 'Affection' spawned pop and club hits such as 'All Around The World' and 'People Hold On'. 1991's 'Real Love' was another success. The singer enjoyed success on the British pop charts as well as the U.S. R&B charts well into the nineties, scoring a #1 hit on the latter with 'All Woman' and continues to record and perform well beyond the millennium. The career of Stansfield starts already in 1980, in the then successful TV casting show "Search for a Star". She wins the show's contest and starts her career as singer and TV presenter in the age of 14. In her TV show "Razzmtazz", she meets other young stars, for instance the young [a721977]. After problems to stay on the ground due to this early success, she quits the TV show and founds her first band [a131788] together with schoolmates [a49715] and [a1191285]. The band did not manage to be successful and splits up in 1988. But her former bandmates continue to work as producers and songwriters in production studios. They meet [a946] in a collaboration and by chance, the UK electronic duo connects with Lisa as a feature vocalist. This leads in consequence to her successful solo career, which is accompanied by the production and songwriting activity by her two former bandmates for her solo work. Andy leaves the trio around 1993. [a49715], who is in relationship with Lisa for the last years, marries her in 1998. She is married to schoolmate [a49715], with who she recorded her first demo tape.

LYRICS

(C. Braide/C. Difford)
If I hadn't got you
If I hadn't got you
Whose friend would I be
If I lied all the time
If you never trusted my word
The love that we make
when feelings run high
Is all that makes sense in the world
And I can never go back, oh no
For a moment of sweet solitude
If I ever go back
I'd be looking for you

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend wouId I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in solitary
If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows

Who's friend would I be if
I can't take a joke
If I can't pull a smile from a tear
The love that I feel
whenever you're close
Makes yesterday's hurt disappear
And I can never go back, oh no
For a moment of sweet solitude
With my head in my hands
I've been waiting for you

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend would I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in solitary
If I hadn't got you
Whose air would I breathe
If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows

So don't turn away
Never go back
Hold onto love
Cos love is all we have
Maybe you'll be lost in this world
Without me

If I hadn't got you
Whose friend would I be
If I hadn't got you
I would die in misery
If I hadn't got you
Whose air would I breathe
If I hadn't got you, yeah

If I hadn't got you
God only knows what I'd do
God only knows
