She can be found singing under these pseudonymns on albums such as Pacha Ibiza, FTV (FashionTV), Paris Dernier, Hotel Costes and Privé. She had just begun to flirt with the idea of singing to jazz when she was contacted and invited to join the production of the first volume of the series, Jazz and ´80s. No one imagined the success that the series would have almost over night. The producer of the series knew a good thing when he saw it and he quickly shared his enthusiasm in the project with Karen and made her and her voice an important part of each album.
Now that Karen had gotten her toes wet in the studio, her label decided it was time to dive in and they sent her and the rest of the Quartet on tour to Brazil in late 2009. The visit was a great success and Karen came into her own onstage, gaining confidence and ever tuning and refining her singing.
On the heels of the Brazilian adventure, the label again stepped in and told Karen it was time to focus on her own material.
To this effect they sent her to Los Angeles for a few months to work with and learn from some of the best songwriters in the business. It was there that she studied under the guidance of Pam Oland , a multiple Grammy nominated songwriter who has worked with stars like Whitney Houston, Earth, Wind and Fire and Aretha Franklin, to name a few. This period gave new direction to Karens own composing and songwriting and has helped her develop her signature sound while continuing to please fans with her characteristic lush vocals.
After her stint in LA, Karen began to dedicate herself exclusively to rehearsing both new and older material with the rest of the quartet and they have achieved a symbiosis that is a pleasure to watch. The Cooltrane Quartet with Karen in the lead is an act not to be missed, full of excellent jazz versions and brand new soloist material from a truly dynamic young artist.
Delectable You
Karen Souza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Changing the rules of the game
We were supposed to keep it simple
Guess that I'm partly to blame
When your eyes devour me
I can feel my face burn hot
When your lips empower me
Delectable you, delicious you
The temperature's melted my cool
If only fools fall in love, I'm a fool
I used to behave more ladylike
Then I got lost in your smile
I don't want to, but I've got to
Keep you around for awhile
When your eyes devour me
I can feel my face burn hot
When your lips empower me
I forget to stop
You're easy to love
And hard to leave
It's something I don't wanna do
I can't escape from delectable you
When your eyes devour me
I can feel my face burn hot
When your lips empower me
I forget to stop
Delectable you, delicious you
I've tried to be careful and cool
But love has caught my fancy
Only one boy can get to me
And I suspect that it's delectable you
Delectable youdelectable you...
The song "Delectable You" by Karen Souza is a love song that talks about falling in love in an unexpected way. The song starts with the lyrics, "Delectable you, delicious you, changing the rules of the game, we were supposed to keep it simple, guess that I'm partly to blame." The singer admits that she was not looking for a serious relationship, but the person she fell in love with changed everything. The singer finds herself unable to resist the charm of her lover, and her feelings cannot be controlled. The chorus of the song says that the lover is "easy to love and hard to leave," expressing the strong emotional attachment the singer has for her partner.
The lyrics also emphasize the physical attraction between the singer and her lover. Lines such as "when your eyes devour me, I can feel my face burn hot, when your lips empower me, I forget to stop," illustrate the singer's intense desire for her partner. However, despite the strong attraction and connection the singer has with her lover, she is still hesitant to commit fully to the relationship. She says that she has "tried to be careful and cool," but ultimately she cannot escape her love for the "delectable" person in front of her.
