Biography

Born in London on April 26, 1975, to a half-French father and mother from Allahabad in India. In early 2006 she became engaged to [url=http://www.discogs.com/artist/Howard+Willing]Howard Willing[/url], the producer of her [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/513197]Fires[/url] album. She is a British recording artist who grew up in Jersey. She released her debut album on Polydor records, Dear Frustrated Superstar, in 2001. This spawned two commercial singles, "Patience" and "Alien", with a third single, "If I Know You" mooted, a video for which was filmed, but has never been publicly shown. Her album was withdrawn during an arena tour with Bryan Adams, and was never re-issued. Subsequently she was dropped from the label partly as a result of a message she wrote on the Tipsheet message board relating to remixes of "Photograph", a track that was intended to be on the re-issued Dear Frustrated Superstar. This incident and many others related to the industry and her experiences with her debut album are discussed in stories on her official web site. Pallot met fellow Jersey resident and Grammy Award-nominated record producer Andy Chatterley in January 2007. They became engaged within the first half hour of their first date, and married six weeks later on 14 February 2007. The story was told by Pallot on Janice Long's BBC Radio 2 show on 3 June 2009. Pallot recently completed her degree in English Literature at Birkbeck, University of London. The couple moved to London but in the late 2010s they moved out to a more rural part of England. On 9th Sept, 2010, Nerina announced via Twitter: "@Andy_Chatterley and I are proud to present our finest song. Our son,Wolfie Chatterley, born this morning". The child's full name is Wolfgang Amadeus Chatterley. On 1st July, 2012, whilst performing at Cornbury Festival, Pallot revealed that she is an Arsenal F.C. fan.

LYRICS

Oh, this road is long, this road is wide,
It takes more than luck to last the ride,
It takes strength and it takes courage to survive,
And did someone ever say to you,
"There's nothing bound in thought you cannot do?"
Well, I've seen some things but not all of them came true.

So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away,
I'm learning to breathe,
No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I'm learning to breathe on my own.

And I know a man who lost his wife,
This is the way he chooses to describe his life,
He says, "If I think too much, I find there's just a hole,"
But before she went, she left a son,
He says, "Dad, you're not the only one,
Maybe love is just a requiem for the soul..."

So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away,
I'm learning to breathe,
No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I'm learning to breathe on my own.

Oh, do you still feel small?
Just a speck of life on an ocean wave,
Does it pull us all?
Does it pull us all?

So I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
Don't want to be alone with my thoughts tomorrow,
And I don't want to be afraid, don't want to look away,
I'm learning to breathe,
No I don't want to be the last, I don't want to be the first,
I just need a hope and a light to follow,
Like sailors look to stars to find their way home,
I'm learning to breathe on my own.
