Hailed as one of the great female rock singers in South Africa, Beverly Jayne has made her mark fronting SA band Concussion Girl (most noted for the saucy single "Tie me up" featured on worldwide release horror movie).
Having released two albums with Band Concussion Girl, Beverly Jayne is finally recording much anticipated debut solo album.
This album somehow straddles the line between keeping fresh and feeling strangely reminiscent of the songs that changed the role of women in rock in the early 90's. The lyrics are raw, honest and instantly relatable.
This album has a little bit of everything you used to expect from a hit Rock/Pop album, from the raw rock energy of "Walk Away" to the heart breakingly beautiful love song "By Your Side" and everything in between.
SAMA winning producer Paul McIvers' years of experience producing an impressive variety of music styles (from R&B and hip hop, to alternative, pop rock and gospel)and passion for music are evident on this album.
Ride With Me
Beverly Jayne Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Lock your sons and daughters up cause here I go
I’ve been sleeping for a while and moving slow
Now my rest is over, honey watch me go
Feeling everything for the first time
Seeing ecstacy all around
We’ll go where we’ve never been
Take a little time with me
With me, with me, with me
If you wanna ride with me
We’ll go where we’ve never been
Come on take some time with me
With me, with me, with me
Easy baby its a ride no need to drive
Climb onbaord feet off the floor until its time
I’ve been needing some releasing from the old
I need feeling to be breathing and let go
Feeling everything for the first time
Seeing ecstacy all around
If you wanna ride with me
We’ll go where we’ve never been
Take a little time with me
With me, with me, with me
If you wanna ride with me
We’ll go where we’ve never been
Take a little time with me
With me, with me, with me
