Background
Amanda provided lead vocals on the track "When We Were In Love" which made it to the semi final of "The Great British Song Contest 1998" to select the UK's entry for the Eurovision song contest. Amanda has a four octave vocal range and her vocals have been compared to Mariah Carey, and indeed it was her vocals on Mariah style ballads that she had co-written which first brought her vocal skills to the attention of music industry A&R. However most of Amanda's success has been found as a guest vocalist working with dance acts.
[edit] With the Freemasons
Amanda has provided lead vocals on many tracks on the Freemasons' album Shakedown. It is believed that The Freemasons discovered Wilson while singing at a karaoke bar in the Méditerranée. Her biggest hit was the Freemasons track, "Love On My Mind", which reached number 11 in 2005 on the official UK Top 40. The song samples vocals from "This Time Baby" by Jackie Moore and lyrics from "When The Heartache Is Over" by Tina Turner. Amanda's vocals on the track were electronically lowered in pitch to blend in with the sampled vocals of Jackie Moore.
Following her success with the Freemasons' first album, Amanda went on to provide lead vocals for their recent remix of Gusto's "Disco's Revenge", which gave Amanda her third Top 40 hit in the UK (peaking at number 33). Amanda has also provided vocals for various other dance tracks, most recently on Outsiders' single "Keep This Fire Burning".

Amanda Wilson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I've been watchin' it all
You've been cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
And you've been chasin' every girl in sight
You've been cheatin' and tellin' me lies
And you've been messin' round, it's over now
You've been creepin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
And you've been chasin' every girl in sight
You've been cheatin' and tellin' me lies
And you've been messin' round, it's over now
You've been creepin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
Cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
Cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
Cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
Cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
And you've been messin' round, it's over now
You've been cheatin' while I'm sleepin'
And tellin' me lies
And you've been chasin' every girl in sight
You've been cheatin' and tellin' me lies
And you've been messin' round, it's over now

I'm loving this track at the moment during my lockdown conoravirus pandemic issues never ever trust a boyfriend who is a lying and cheated on you
I'm learning that if your boyfriend is controlled in yourself in any shape of form like for example going straight through your phone without your consent that is definitely wrong , isolated yourself from your friends and family a person that is controlled doesn't love you at all .
