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.
Every Breath You Take
Karen Souza Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Every bond you break, every step you take
I'll be watching you
Every single day, every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I'll be watching you
How my poor heart aches with every step you take
Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I dream at night, I can only see your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I keep crying baby, baby, please
Oh, can't you see you belong to me
How my poor heart aches with every breath you take
Every move you make, every vow you break
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Every smile you fake, every claim you stake
I'll be watching you
Karen Souza's cover of "Every Breath You Take" by The Police is a hauntingly beautiful rendition of the original track. The lyrics of the song are written in the point of view of a possessive lover who is unable to let go of their partner, even after they have left. It is a song that speaks to the desire to be close to someone, to watch their every move in order to feel a sense of control over them.
The lyrics "Every breath you take, every move you make, every bond you break, every step you take, I'll be watching you" are repeated throughout the song, emphasizing the obsessive nature of the singer's thoughts. The line "Oh, can't you see you belong to me, how my poor heart aches with every step you take" highlights the character's intense feelings of possessiveness and jealousy.
The song's chorus is powerful in its simplicity, with the lyrics "I'll be watching you" repeating over and over again. This pervasive feeling of surveillance adds to the sense of unease that the song creates. The track's melancholic tone is accentuated by the use of gentle guitar strumming and Karen Souza's gently crooning vocals.

Every breath you take, every move you make
I watch your every breath and every move
Every bond you break, every step you take
I am aware of every commitment you let go and every move you make
I'll be watching you
I am watching you closely
Every single day, every word you say
I am monitoring you every day and paying attention to every word you say
Every game you play, every night you stay
I see every action you take and every night you spend
Oh, can't you see you belong to me
You belong to me and I need you to recognize it

Every vow you break, every smile you fake
I am aware of the promises you break and the emotions you fake
Every claim you stake, I'll be watching you
I am keeping an eye on everything you do
Since you've gone I been lost without a trace
I am lost without you and don't know where you are
I dream at night, I can only see your face
All I can see in my dreams is your face
I look around but it's you I can't replace
Even though I try to move on, I can't replace you
I feel so cold and I long for your embrace
I feel lonely and I want to be held by you
I keep crying baby, baby, please
I cry and plea for your return

For the first time i was presented with this song on a rainy winter night. It was around Christmas you know. I had just left my work. On the backseat of the car. The decoration lights, rain touching the window, warmth of ac. Then this song started. Listening a womans voice felt like she was singing it to me. It was magical. With all due respect for the police, but this one's better. Bossa nova is music for the soul.
