1) The Swiss duo of Felix Haug (drums and keyboards) and Kurt Maloo (guitar and vocals), formerly part of a trio called Ping Pong, scored an international hit in 1986 with the atmospheric ballad “The Captain of Her Heart” (#16 US pop, #4 US AC, #8 UK, #17 Canada) from their debut album Blue. It would be their only substantial hit, with “Devils Ball,” the lead single from 1987 follow-up album Dou3le, stalling at #71 in the UK and failing to chart in the US. The duo split in 1989 and Haug died following a heart attack in 2004.

2) Double is the stage name for Japanese R&B singer Takako Hirasawa and previously was a duo consisting of Hirasawa and her sister, Sachiko. “Shake” was the duo’s highest charting single (#21 Japan). After the death of her sister in May 1999, Takako continued as Double and is regarded as one of the first artists to bring American-style R&B to Japan. She also portrays a sexualized image, a rarity for Japanese artists.

Stay away from me
Kono ba kara imasugu ni
Tachisareba ii
And don't come back again
Stay away from me
Fusawashii ba ni
Modoreba ii
Just right now imasugu ni

Hey boy yoku aru koto
You know I'm talkin' 'bout you
Mi no take yoso ni hanashikakete kuru
Ichido dake demo nozoite mitara
Shinjitsu utsusu kokoro no kagami

Dou agaitemo
Dou kazattemo
Sono hinsei wa ooikakusenai mono
But you don't wanna give me up
Why won't you understand?
I'm not the kind of girl you can get

Stay away from me
Kono ba kara imasugu ni
Tachisareba ii
And don't come back again
Stay away from me
Fusawashii ba ni
Modoreba ii
Just right now imasugu ni

What are you doin' to me
Sono taido de
Oh boy why can't you see
Akirerarete iru no o
Tarinai kaiwa tarinai atama
Aite ga chigau You've got to know who you are

Dou agaitemo
Dou kazattemo
Sono hinsei wa ooikakusenai mono
But you don't wanna give me up
Why won't you understand?
I'm not the kind of girl you can get

Stay away from me

And don't come back again
Stay away from me
Fusawashii ba ni

Modoreba ii
