Story behind the song
It was motivated by seeing a girl singer called Sue trying her best to sing in a noisy bar where the crowd seemed more interested in talking and getting drunk and it just seemed so unfair because she was so good! It's a comment on the music business too. The picture is of the late Janice Pugsley who was a singer/songwriter and gifted artist who recently passed away and I know she liked this song and the sentiments it expresses. It seems fitting to use Janice's image here as a tribute and in her memory.
Lyrics
I first saw you standing in the spotlight
Standing lovely, lonely on that cold night
I saw you singing, singing through the moonlight
I saw you sparkle, I saw you sparkle bright
I saw you there singing your heart out
I saw you singing through the clamour of these fools
And you delivered something special
On that special night
Now I can see you and I can hear you
You're not alone in the wilderness
You're not alone in this sea of madness
You're not alone in the music biz
Girl singer, where are you now?
I need to find you across this crowded city
I need to find you across these desperate bars
I need to find you through the halls and clubs of loneliness
I need to find you on the road of falling stars
I need to find you through all the teeming millions
I need to find you through electric storms and dark
I need to find you through all our crazy pathways
I need to find you from right across the world
Girl singer, where are you now
On the road of falling stars?
