Creating music that defies definition comes naturally to Gaelle, who grew up in an African-American community in New Jersey the daughter of Haitian parents. Exposed as a child to the percussive, upbeat music of Haiti—as well as to the grooving, hip-hop sounds of urban radio and new wave music videos on TV—Gaelle takes a naturally broad-minded approach to singing and songwriting. With a view to elevating the events of everyday life to the realm of poetry, Transient explores mystery, wit, honesty and subtlety—subjects that are increasingly rare in current popular music.
“I’ve always felt there could be a happy marriage between many styles of music without compromising artistic integrity,” Gaelle explains. “With this album I’d like to pave the way for other artists who would like to take a more innovative approach to expressing themselves. I also hope that what my music conveys will help some misunderstood person have a voice in this complex world.”
Singer/songwriter Gaelle Adisson started her life in music at an early age. Influenced by a mixture of her African-American childhood community and her parents’ Haitian identity, Gaelle found herself writing music in her teens that was a cultural hybrid. By the time she moved to Atlanta at the age of 18, the aspiring singer had already written dozens of songs, and at the insistence of a close friend, was asked to perform vocals on some house music tracks that were being recorded by the then-unknown producer Chris Brann. The pair hit it off immediately, and Gaelle launched the beginning of her recording career.
Eventually, Gaelle found herself performing and recording with several producers and musicians. The result of this period of productivity was the song “King of My Castle,” which she recorded with the Wamdue Project. This song became one of the most popular dance songs of the late 90's, and is still considered a classic in the UK dance scene. From that point Gaelle decided to start her production company, Speakeasy Music. During the period between her U.K. smash, and the recording of her debut album Transient, Gaelle concentrated on producing and remixing with her partner Eric Stamile.
Give It Back
Gaelle Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You hijacked my mind so
I'm falling in circles
Can't catch my fall so
I need you to be close 'cause
Where you go, I'll follow
So give it back
In my bed
Sleeping not
I cannot explain what's in my head
Longing for
An empty thought
But I seem to think of you instead
You blew my mind away
And I can't let you go
Took it and ran away
Just had to let you know
Just dropped a line to say
That I lost all control
You blew my mind away
[Chorus]
In my head
And in my heart
I cannot complain
No one competes
Longing for this pace to stop
Never been the same
Since you loved me
You blew my mind away
Now that I'm torn apart
Took it and ran away
Is when you come for my heart
There's nothing left to say
And I don't know where to start
Give back my thoughts to me
[Chorus]
Kiss me
, you know you want to
Touch me, and feel my heart beat
Hold me, don't let go
Take me, I'm yours completely
The lyrics of Gaelle's song Give It Back express a sense of turmoil and confusion in the singer's mind and heart as she grapples with the intense emotions stirred up by a romantic relationship. The first verse talks about how the other person has "hijacked" her mind, causing her to feel like she's falling and unable to catch herself. She needs this person to be close to her so that she can follow them and find her way back to stability. The chorus repeats the phrase "you blew my mind away," emphasizing the intensity of the influence this person has had on her. The second verse continues the theme of being unable to stop thinking about the other person, even when she's trying to sleep or focus on other things. Despite the singer's struggles to separate herself from this person, there is a sense of surrender in the lyrics - she acknowledges that she is "yours completely" and asks the other person to "give back my thoughts to me."
Overall, the song captures the feeling of being swept away by love and the way it can consume a person's thoughts and emotions. The singer is both entranced by and struggling to cope with the depth of her feelings, and the lyrics convey a sense of vulnerability in the face of such intensity.

Верни
You hijacked my mind, so
Ты похитил мою душу, и теперь
I'm falling in circles,
Я хожу по кругу,
Can't catch my fall, so
Я не могу остановить свое падение, поэтому
I need you to be close 'cause
Мне нужно, чтобы ты был рядом, потому что
Where you go, I'll follow,
Куда бы ты ни пошел, я последую за тобой,
So give it back.
Так верни же ее.
In my bed
Лежу в кровати,
Sleeping not.
Но мне не спится.
I cannot explain what's in my head.
Я не могу объяснить, что творится в моей голове.
Longing for
Я так хочу
An empty thought
Думать о чем-нибудь абстрактном,
But I seem to think of you instead.
Но вместо этого, похоже, думаю лишь о тебе.
You blew my mind away,
Ты унес с собой мою душу,
And I can't let you go,
И я не могу отпустить тебя,
Took it and ran away.
Ты забрал ее и убежал.
Just had to let you know,
Я просто должна дать тебе знать,
Just dropped a line to say
Я просто черкнула несколько строк, чтобы сказать,
That I lost all control,
Что я потеряла всякий контроль,
You blew my mind away.
Из-за тебя я лишилась рассудка.
Give it back,
Верни,
You hijacked my mind so,
Ты похитил мою душу, и теперь
I'm falling in circles,
Я хожу по кругу,
Can't catch my fall so
Я не могу остановить свое падение, поэтому
I need you to be close 'cause
Мне нужно, чтобы ты был рядом, потому что
Where you go, I'll follow,
Куда бы ты ни пошел, я последую за тобой,
So give it back. [x2]
Так верни же ее.
In my head
Ни головой,
And in my heart,
Ни сердцем
I cannot complain,
Я не могу пожаловаться,
No one competes.
Соперников нет.
Longing for this pace to stop,
Я так хочу замедлить этот темп,
Never been the same
Я уже никогда не буду прежней
Since you loved me.
С тех пор, как ты полюбил меня.
You blew my mind away,
Ты унес с собой мою душу,
Now that I'm torn apart.
И теперь я разорвана на части.
Took it and ran away,
Ты забрал ее и убежал,
Is when you come for my heart
А когда ты приходишь за моим сердцем,
There's nothing left to say,
Уже просто нечего сказать,
And I don't know where to start.
И я не знаю, с чего начать.
Give back my thoughts to me.
Верни мне мои мысли.
Give it back,
Верни,
You hijacked my mind so,
Ты похитил мою душу, и теперь
I'm falling in circles,
Я хожу по кругу,
Can't catch my fall so
Я не могу остановить свое падение, поэтому
I need you to be close 'cause
Мне нужно, чтобы ты был рядом, потому что
Where you go, I'll follow,
Куда бы ты ни пошел, я последую за тобой,
So give it back.
Так верни же ее.
