Do was born in 1981 in Valkenswaard, Netherlands. Her father is Willem-Jan van Hulst, a popular tennis coach. At age fifteen, she planned to compete in Wimbledon, but an injury ended her tennis career. Her first musical performance was in café Old Dutch in Valkenswaard, which led to a record label deal with Sony Music BMG.
Before she even released a single, she was a supporting act for the tour of 5ive and Montell Jordan in the Netherlands. The first single Do released was the song Real Good. Although the music video was played a lot on the Dutch music channel TMF, it was not a hit song in the Netherlands. Later in an interview, she says that "It wasn't my sound, and I hated the video. Thankfully it wasn't a hit, 'cause I don't want people to remember me from that song". After that, Do collaborated with DJ Sammy and Yanou, who is also her producer. The song was a cover of Bryan Adams song Heaven. It became an international hit. It reached the number one spot in the United Kingdom and was a Top ten hit in several countries. A candlelight remix version was made with a slower, piano instrumental. During this time, she had some problems with the credits of the song. Everywhere she went, she was asked if she was DJ Sammy because the song (in accordance with most dance songs) was credited to DJ Sammy, and she was the main focus in the video.[citation needed] Her candlelight version of "Heaven" is also used for the ending sequence of the TV series 'Cold Case', 1st season episode 8 'Fly Away'.

Do Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've been looking baby night and day
Just to show how I feel
Thoughts of you and me inside my mind
You've got my head spinning all the time
I'm so into you
And I just can't forget the first day we met
You're taken me up and down swinging me round and round
Nothing feels better, better then being with you
Chorus:
Whenever I want your love you're all that I'm thinking of
No one else in this world will do I want to feel close to you
Whenever I want your love you're all that I'm thinking of
No one else in this world like you
I got to be close to you
There's a little piece of me you found
You took my heart to a higher ground
Don't you ever let go no
I told you baby how I feel
Now I'm asking you is this for real
Would you let me go?
‘Cause I just can't forget
The first day we met
You made me shiver
You're taken me up and down, swinging me round and round
But nothing feels better, better than being with you
Chorus (repeat)
