In 2005 the duo transformed Jackie Moore's 1979 #1 Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play track "This Time Baby" and Tina Turner's 2000 hit "When The Heartache Is Over" into an international club smash as "Love On My Mind".
The song, which sampled the Moore track, but whose lyrics "I've Got Love On My Mind, Ain’t no use in me wastin’ time..."(The opening lyrics on the Moore single) and "When The Heartache Is Over, I Know I Won't Be Missing You" (The chorus from Turner's tune) was sung repeatedy by British singer Amanda Wilson, reached the top 10 of both the Billboard Hot Dance Music/Club Play and Dance Top 40 charts (where it reached #2 on the latter) in the United States.
They were also the remixers on Faith Evans 2005 #1 Hot Dance Music/Club Play and #4 Dance Top 40 hit "Mesmerized".
The act's follow-up, "Watchin'", also with Amanda Wilson, was released in the United States in 2006. Freemasons released their third single "Rain Down Love" in early 2007 which features Siedah Garret as the lead vocalist.
The duo have also had huge plaudits for their remixes of Beyonce's Deja Vu, Ring The Alarm, Beautiful Liar and Greenlight.
Officially released 2-disc album "Shakedown" on december 4th, 2006
In addition, they have since remixed Kelly Rowland's 'Work' and released a remix of The Alanis Morisette track Uninvited which featured in the film City of Angels; in December 2007 with Bailey Tzuke, which have both been UK Top 10 Hit Singles
"Unmixed" Is the latest album from the band released on 29 October 2007. The album differs from the first as tracks are not mixed but instead are full length.
Uninvited
Freemasons Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I am flattered by your fascination with me
And like any hot blooded woman
I have simply wanted an object to crave
But you
You're not allowed
You're uninvited
Must be strangely exciting
To watch the stoic squirm
Must be somewhat heartening
To watch shepherd meet shepherd
But you
You're not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
Like any uncharted territory
I must seem greatly intriguing
You speak of my love like
You have experienced love like mine before
But this
Is not allowed
You're uninvited
An unfortunate slight
I don't think you unworthy
I need a moment to deliberate
The lyrics of Freemasons feat. Bailey Tzuke's song "Uninvited" delve into the complex dynamics of obsession and attraction. The song begins with the singer acknowledging that she is flattered by the other person's interest but soon reveals that the attention is unwanted, as the individual is not allowed into her life. While the other person may find it exciting to watch her squirm, the singer is resolute in her decision to keep them at a distance. She reveals that the other person may find her intriguing, but she cannot allow them to have access to her love.
The song goes on to detail the pain and confusion that can arise from such a situation. The singer admits that she does not find the other person unworthy, but she needs some time to deliberate her feelings. The lyrics are powerful in their portrayal of the complicated emotions that can arise when someone becomes obsessed with another person. It captures the inner turmoil, the guilt, and the pain that come with having to reject someone's advances.
Overall, the song is a powerful commentary on the importance of boundaries and the harm that can come from overstepping them. The singer is strong and resolute, standing up for herself and protecting her heart even in the face of someone else's obsession.
Line by Line Meaning
Like anyone would be
I understand why you'd be interested in me
I am flattered by your fascination with me
It's nice to know that you think highly of me
And like any hot blooded woman
Just like any other passionate person
I have simply wanted an object to crave
I've wanted something to desire
But you
However, you
You're not allowed
You can't have what you want
You're uninvited
I don't want you around me
An unfortunate slight
It's a sad situation
Must be strangely exciting
It probably feels exhilarating
To watch the stoic squirm
To see someone who is usually composed be uncomfortable
Must be somewhat heartening
It must be encouraging in some way
To watch shepherd meet shepherd
To see two similar people meet
But you
However, you
You're not allowed
You can't have what you want
You're uninvited
I don't want you around me
An unfortunate slight
It's a sad situation
Like any uncharted territory
Just like something unknown
I must seem greatly intriguing
I probably seem very interesting
You speak of my love like
You talk about my affection as if
You have experienced love like mine before
You've had the same kind of love before
But this
However, this
Is not allowed
It's not permitted
You're uninvited
I don't want you around me
An unfortunate slight
It's a sad situation
I don't think you unworthy
I don't think you're not good enough
I need a moment to deliberate
I need some time to think about this
