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'.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And yet I cheated on you my love
You my love
My heart is beatin'
Are you leavin' me alone
On my own
And then the tears hit my eyes
I'm waiting for you
Waiting for you
Forgive me just one of my lies
Release me from one alibi
I gotta have you
I gotta have you
On and on
Your voice is calling
On and on inside my mind
Don't you know
I can't let go
Never, never 'cause my love goes
On and on
Your voice is calling
On and on inside my mind
Don't you know
I can't let go
Never, never 'cause my love goes on
I didn't mean it
And yet I cheated on you my love
You my love
And then the tears hit my eyes
I miss you right by my side
I'm waitin' for you
Waitin' for you
Forgive me just one of my lies
Release me from one alibi
I gotta have you
I gotta have you
On and on
Your voice is calling
On and on inside my mind
Don't you know
I can't let go
Never, never 'cause my love goes
On and on
Your voice is calling
On and on inside my mind
Don't you know
I can't let go
Never, never 'cause my love goes on
Oh oh oh oh oh
On and on
On and on
The lyrics to Do's song "On and On" suggest a deeply conflicted relationship between two lovers. The opening lines, "I didn't mean it / And yet I cheated on you my love / You my love," reveal that the singer has betrayed their partner and feels remorseful for their actions. The following lines, "My heart is beatin' / Are you leavin' me alone / On my own," suggest that the singer is dealing with the consequences of their actions and fears losing their partner.
The chorus of the song contains the repeated phrase, "On and on / Your voice is calling / On and on inside my mind / Don't you know / I can't let go / Never, never 'cause my love goes on." This repetition seems to reflect the ongoing internal struggle that the singer is experiencing. They acknowledge their wrongdoing but are unable to let go of their love for this person, despite the fact that they know they have caused them pain. The repeated phrase "On and on" echoes the sense of endlessness and repetition that characterizes the internal monologue of someone struggling with guilt and conflicted emotions.
Overall, the lyrics to "On and On" portray a complex emotional landscape that will likely resonate with anyone who has experienced the pain of betraying someone they love and then struggling to make amends for their actions.
