Legal issues over the name Aurra made Curt and Starleana change their name to Deja and with this name they only managed to reach number 75 with the Monte Moir penned single Serious. Starleana Young left the group to go solo, and was replaced by Mysti Day.
Make Up Your Mind
Aurra Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Stop wasting all my time
Why don't you make up your mind
Stop wasting all my time
Tell me what am I to do
I can tell that's something's
Wrong when I look at you
Words you start to say to me
Your actions are so strange
I wonder what can the problem be
You keep on
(Playing with my feelings)
Yeah, that's what
You keep doing, baby
(Playing with my heart)
Ooh, ooh, yeah
You keep confusing me so
That I don't know
Which way to go, whoa
I've got this feeling
That you wanna go
Tell me, baby, is it so
All I want from you
Is a little honesty
You always say one thing
Then you do another
So tell me what's on your mind
Don't you keep me
Waiting all the time
Tell me what's on your mind
Don't you keep me
Waiting all the time
Why don't you make up your mind
Stop wasting all my time
Why don't you make up your mind
Stop wasting all my time
Baby, things have got to change
I can't keep going on this way
You're driving me insane
You must decide and
Make it clear to me
Cause I can't take this waiting
I wanna know for sure, you see
You keep on
(Playing with my feelings)
Yeah, that's what
You keep doing, baby
(Playing with my heart)
Ooh, ooh, yeah
You keep confusing me so
That I don't know
Which way to go
Sometimes I feel like
I've done something wrong
All I wanna do is satisfy you
Why, baby, why you
Keep mistreating me
When I'm the only one
Who really loves you
Why don't you make up your mind
Stop wasting all my time
Why don't you make up your mind
Stop wasting all my time...

I'm glad this song appeared in GTA V's Media Player, so that younger generations could find out about it and, also, about Aurra!

@asarheru6006
Does everyone realize that never before in the history of music, that music this old was never this funky and relevant this long after its creation? There are older songs from 70's/80's era that are in this category. What a period in music history. It set the tone for everything we're hearing today.

I wasn't even born when they was out I found out about them like 6 years I love Aurra. I just find it weird how I never heard no one mention them even though I wasn't alive back then lol. I was raised on the 60s 70s 80s 90s and 2000s music im gonna have to sit down and have a convo with my grandma on Christmas and ask why she never played Aurra when I was growing up lol.
@JosephDungee
The Guitarist and Bassist are just plain SICK in this recording!!
@scarolinispicks4073
YESSS! wish kids went to the clubs and got outside like we used to and could disconnect from all of the darkness and stress and anxiety
@richardlhall55
Yep I was on the rock/Baumholder, Germany. Had to wait until someone came from the world to check out new grooves. The clubs was getting some of it. Man miss those days. After 30 years and now retired. I go back to a few favorite spots around the rock. Enjoy!.
