Profile:
Born in Yorkshire in 1971 but transplanted to Belgium when he was only three, CJ Bolland received an early education in dance music; his parents ran a club in Antwerp, and his mother DJed there. He grew up listening to the synthesizer music of several eras — from Jean-Michel Jarre to Front 242 and the Neon Judgement — but began devoting most of his time to house and techno by the late '80s. Bolland began producing in 1988, when a drummer friend gave him access to the right gear, and his tracks were soon heard on several Belgian pirate radio stations. He then sent demos to several labels, and finally heard back from R & S Records.
CJ Bolland's first production for R & S, the Project's "Do That Dance", jump-started his career, and he soon saw releases from his projects Pulse, Space Opera (with the Advent's Cisco Ferreira), Cee-Jay, Ravesignal and Sonic Solution. His 1992 "Ravesignal 3 EP" (specifically, the track "Horsepower") made Bolland one of the hottest names in the new global dance community.
Bolland made his album debut soon after, with "The 4th Sign". His 1993-94 schedule also included production work for Mundo Muzique, Dave Angel and Joey Beltram as well as remixing for Orbital, The Prodigy, Sven Väth, WestBam, Tori Amos and Baby Ford, among others. His second album "Electronic Highway" was released in 1995, after which Bolland signed a mammoth five-album deal with Internal Records. The first fruits of the contract, "The Analogue Theatre", were released in late 1996 to critical praise and dance-chart success, thanks to the excitable single "Sugar Is Sweeter".
He founded his own label "Mole Records" in 2002.

Sugar is Sweeter
CJ Bolland Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I want your lovin' so come on and give it to me
Sugar daddy, sugar daddy oh
Look at me I'm begging for more more more....
Sugar daddy set me free.
Sugar daddy come for me.
Uh-huh come on and sugar Now
The lyrics of CJ Bolland's song 'Sugar is Sweeter' convey the message of an individual craving for the attention and affection of their lover, whom they are addressing as 'sugar daddy.' The lyrics begin with a plea for their enigmatic lover to provide them with love as they yearn for it, both physically and emotionally. As there is a hint of desperation and longing in the lyrics, it is evident that the singer's love for their sugar daddy is all-encompassing and unique. As the lyrics of the few lines progress, the song's tone changes from supplication to assertion and reflects the singer's growing confidence. The phrase "sugar daddy set me free" implies that the singer seeks liberation from their emotions and is willing to let their lover control them. The last line of the chorus, "come on and sugar now," explicitly emphasizes the singer's desire to be showered with their lover's sweet, sweet love.
