Biography

Tanita Tikaram (born 12 August 1969) is a British singer-songwriter, known for her exotic, low voice. Her brother is [a2801246]. Tikaram, of Malaysian and Indo-Fijian ancenstry, was born in Münster, Germany, but since her early teens has lived in the UK. Her debut album "Ancient Heart" was released when she was just 19. The album was a huge hit all over Europe, while the first two singles "Good Tradition" and "Twist In My Sobriety" reached Top 10. The follow-up album "The Sweet Keeper" used the recipe of the debut and was quite successful, but yielded no big hits. Tikaram stepped up as a co-producer on her third album "Everybody's Angel" and produced the fourth, "Eleven Kinds Of Loneliness", solely by herself. While both were solid works, they sold gradually less. Yet, on "Loneliness", Tikaram came on her own as artist. Tikaram started to spend more time abroad, finding collaborators in the USA, Italy and France. "Lovers in the City" (1995) is perhaps her most introspective work so far. On "The Cappuccino Songs" from 1998 Tikaram released some of her most accessible pop tracks so far. After spending several years under the radar, Tikaram returned in 2005 with the jazzy, low-key "Sentimental" album. Since then Tikaram found home with the German Ear Music label and has released two albums, the Americana and Motown influenced "Can't Go Back" (2012) and "Closer To The People" (2016). Her newest album 'LIAR' (Love Isn't A Right) will be released in October 2025.

LYRICS

Thought I'd call you up
To make you see what's true
But nothing seems quite right
It's like I'm lying back at you
If that's the way it goes
To cut you like it does
For nothing tastes more bitter
Than the fever that you lost
Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
It's not like people leave
They're really leaving you
It's just a different world
Just a different thing to do
Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
The more that you see her
The more you fall apart
You thought you were of stronger stuff my friend
A stronger heart my friend
You'd see it to the end
You're still searching in the dark
Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
Do you think that love can last forever
Forever for you...
