Born Lucie Joanne Silverman. Lucie left school in the sixth form, where she became a backing vocalist for ex-Take That vocalist Gary Barlow and singer Judie Tzuke. In 2000 Lucie Silvas recorded her album "Forget Me Not" - with tracks including the single "It's Too Late". This song entered the charts with a low position, and Lucie was subsequently dropped from her record label.
She then went on to write songs for other artists including Will Young, Gareth Gates, Rachel Stevens and Liberty X.
In 2003, Lucie was signed to Mercury Records, and given a long time to write her debut album, Breathe In. The first single from this album, What You're Made Of entered the charts at number 7, and a few weeks later the album entered the charts at number 11 (the highest chart position it has gained, although it has returned to this position on multiple occasions). Following TV appearances on the Ivor Novello Elton John tribute show, and All Time Greatest Love Songs with Ronan Keating, Lucie Silvas released her second single from the album, Breathe In, which debuted at number 6. Lucie then released power-ballad The Game Is Won and the rock-esque Don't Look Back which entered the charts at numbers 38 and 34 respectively. However, the last single from her album, a self-penned ballad entitled Forget Me Not, entered the UK charts at a low #76.
Having been in the business for almost a year, Lucie has a UK tour, a platinum album and 4 top 40 singles already under her belt. On November 2nd 2005 Lucie embarked upon her next tour, starting in Brighton and has already written her much anticipated follow up album in 2005. Lucie has also been collaborating with the critically acclaimed songwriter Eg White, with whom she wrote the Will Young single Who Am I.
Lucie's second album The Same Side was recorded in late 2006. It was released in October 2006 in the Netherlands and in March 2007 in the UK and the rest of Europe. The first UK single, "Last Year" was premiered on BBC Radio 2 in late August 2006, and a duet with Marco Borsato, "Everytime I Think of You," in the Netherlands. The Same Side was produced by Danton Supple, who produced Coldplay's X&Y. In the Netherlands, "Everytime I Think of You" charted on #35 on downloads only, topping the Dutch Top 40 in the next 3 weeks. It became her first Number 1 single in the Netherlands.
"Last Year" was the first single in the UK and peaked at #79, and #114 in Republic of Ireland. Following this setback, Mercury Records decided to postpone the UK release of her new album, which had been scheduled for October 2006; it was re-scheduled for March 12 2007.
The second single chosen was "Sinking In", a Pop/Rock song released on 5 March 2007 in the United Kingdom and Ireland. The single was released as a download only and did not create much interest and did not enter the charts at all.
The album charted at #62 on the UK Albums Chart in its first week, selling 8,000 copies in its first week. At the second week, the album charted outside the Top 100, selling only 2,000 more copies. A DVD of The Same Side has been released in the Netherlands.
After "The Same Side" failed to impact on the charts Lucie was subsequently dropped by her label.
Lucie has spent the last few months working on new music in Nashville, Tennessee and NYC, as well as in studios in the UK. Several demos have been recorded and posted to various sites on the internet such as Lucie's official myspace page. In August 2009, Lucie revealed that she was writing with Australian singer Delta Goodrem. In September 2009 Lucie also told fans on Twitter she was working on getting new material out in 2010 and was also planning a European tour.
In February 2010, she spent some time in the studio with Nadine Coyle of Girls Aloud [5].
Her fiance is the Leicester and Ireland rugby player Geordan Murphy.
Forget Me Not
Lucie Silvas Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Wherever your life takes you to
And if we never meet again
Think of me every now and then
We had just one day to recall
Now all I want is something more
Than just a fading memory
Isn't it a shame, that when timing's all wrong
You're doing what you never meant to,
There's always something that prevents you.
Well I believe in fate, it had to happen this way
But it always leaves me wondering whether
In another life we'd be together.
We should feel lucky we can say, we've always got yesterday
And as I leave it all behind
You're still emblazoned in my mind
And for that very special day
Nobody loved me in that way
Forget me not, I ask of you
Wherever your life takes you to
And if we never meet again
Think of me every now and then
The song "Forget Me Not" by Lucie Silvas is a melancholic reminder of a brief moment in time shared between two people. The singer addresses the other person, requesting that they not forget them even if they never see each other again. This plea reveals a sense of longing and regret for what could have been if circumstances were different. The lyrics hint at a missed opportunity and a sense of frustration with the timing of life events.
The song's opening lines request that the listener remembers the singer, wherever life takes them to. It is a poignant reminder that memories can be fleeting, and people can disappear from each other’s lives. The singer then acknowledges that they may never meet again, but they hope that the other person thinks of them occasionally. The second verse reveals that they only had a single day together, which left the singer wanting more. They do not want to be just a fading memory, but a person that the other always thinks of. The chorus serves as a reminder of what could have been, and the regret of missed opportunities.
The overall theme of the song is the idea of missed opportunities and the bittersweet memories that come with them. The sense of longing for something that could have been, but never was, is universal, and the lyrics touch on this sentiment in a way that is relatable to many listeners. The song also explores the idea of fate and how the timing of life events can sometimes be out of our control.

Forget me not, I ask of you
Please don't forget about me
Wherever your life takes you to
Wherever you go, wherever life leads you
And if we never meet again
In case we never see each other again
Think of me every now and then
Remember me from time to time
We had just one day to recall
We only had one day to remember
Now all I want is something more
I want something more than just that one day
Than just a fading memory
I don't want to be just a memory that fades away
Left wondering what could have been.
I'm left wondering what could have happened if things were different
Isn't it a shame, that when timing's all wrong
Isn't it sad that timing can ruin everything
You're doing what you never meant to,
You're doing something that you didn't intend to do
There's always something that prevents you.
There's always something that gets in the way
Well I believe in fate, it had to happen this way
I believe that fate made it happen the way it did
But it always leaves me wondering whether
But it always makes me wonder if
In another life we'd be together.
In another life, we could have been together
We should feel lucky we can say, we've always got yesterday
We should feel lucky that we have memories of yesterday
And as I leave it all behind
As I move on from this
You're still emblazoned in my mind
You're still engraved in my thoughts
And for that very special day
And for that unforgettable day
Nobody loved me in that way
No one has ever loved me like you did
