She is one of nine brothers and sisters and at every family event she was lifted up onto the table and she sang and danced-ending up entertaining the whole party. Her talent was officially discovered in a contest at the age of 15. A deal with Warner Brothers and her first single hits in the disco era in Europe followed. After meeting her future husband, they formed the duo "Luisa Fernandez and Peter Kent" and had several European pop hits in Spanish, amongst them Solo por ti, that can be heard on European radio stations even today.

Shortly after they moved to the island of Ibiza, Spain, where Luisa met Jens Gad. Their creative collaboration started several years later when Jens' own studio on Ibiza was finished. Jens describes, "We started using Luisa's Spanish poems and stories and made theme-songs out of them. We wanted to avoid pop vocal-elements and instead felt we were on a journey to discover archaic/ethnic depths in Luisa's voice that she hadn't used before." From this collaboration was born Achillea's latest new age music meets electronica creation, Amadas Estrellas with Luisa's vocals and Jens' music.

Make Me Feel Alright
Luisa Fernandez Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

I was alone
Hoping that someone would come to me,
And when you were looking at me
It was destiny

You crossed my path and walked in my way,
I turned my head finding nothing to say
You may be wrong, My fears were strong

I held my breath hoping you'd hear my song

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright (Alright!)
And if you need me, Then don't you leave me,
Leave me uptight (Leave me uptight)

Oh, If you want me, Then will you love me,
Love me tonight
Just wake me and make me feel it,
It's out of sight (It's out of sight)

I called to you
Knowing that it was foolish of me
You came and called,
Looked in my eyes and set my harmony

I took your hand and wanted to nod
You looked at me and I knew it inside
You turned me on, My fear was gone
I heard you playing as I'm singing my song

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright (Alright!)
And if you need me, Then don't you leave me,
Leave me uptight (Uptight!)

Oh, If you want me, Then will you love me,
Love me tonight
Just wake me and make me feel it,
It's out of sight (It's out of sight)

(Dance all night, Dance all night, Oh yeah)
(Dance all night, Dance all night, Oh yeah)
(Dance all night, Dance all night, Oh yeah)
(Dance all night, Dance all night, Oh yeah)

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright
And if you need me, Then don't you leave me,
Leave me uptight

Oh, If you want me, Then will you love me,
Love me tonight
Just wake me and make me feel it,
It's out of sight (It's out of sight)

I was alone
Hoping that someone would come to me,
And when you were looking at me
It was destiny

You crossed my path and walked in my way,
I turned my head finding nothing to say
You may be wrong, My fears were strong
I held my breath hoping you'd hear my song

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright (Alright!)
And if you need me, Then don't you leave me,
Leave me uptight (Uptight!)

Oh, If you want me, Then will you love me,
Love me tonight
Just wake me and make me feel it,
It's out of sight (It's out of sight)

(Let me feel it, Let me feel it... Oh, Yeah)
(Let me feel it, Let me feel it... Oh, Yeah)
(Let me feel it, Let me feel it... Oh, Yeah)
(Let me feel it, Let me feel it)

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright
And if you need me, Then don't you leave me,
Leave me uptight

Oh, If you want me, Then will you love me,
Love me tonight
Just wake me and make me feel it,
It's out of sight (It's out of sight)

If you want me, Why don't you make me
Feel alright (Alright!)
