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

(L. Stansfield/I. Devaney/A. Morris)
You need money like you've got no soul
Can't love ever fill that hole
You talk fast but your heart is slow
Can't love ever make you whole
Your laughing at my words right now
But you'll end up a tired and lonely man
You tell me love is nothing but wasted time
Well I'm telling you it's the only way of life

Chorus:
I can't see enjoyment
I don't see compassion
I see symptoms of loneliness and heartache
I don't see emotion or quality of life
Just symptoms of loneliness and heartache

I can't figure out the love we share
I can't see that there's any there at all
You buy me flowers and fancy things
But I need your heart above everything

Your laughing at my words right now
But you'll end up a tired and lonely man
You tell me love is nothing but wasted time
Well I'm telling you it's the only way of life

(Chorus x 2)

Your laughing at my words right now
But you'll end up a tired and lonely man
You tell me love is nothing but wasted time
Well I'm telling you it's the only way of life

(Chorus)
