1) MICHELLE is a fresh musical collective hailing from New York City. Weaving in and out of R&B, Pop, Jazz and Indie sounds, the group of six pays homage to these genres through 70s inspired basslines, driving drum beats, plush synths and enticing vocals. Having recently celebrated their first year on the scene as an ensemble, MICHELLE is already solidifying itself as a strong current in a new wave of emerging NYC staples. MICHELLE’s unique stylings are the result of fine-tuned production and arrangements by Julian Kaufman and Charlie Kilgore, with singers Jamee Lockard, Layla Ku, Sofia D’Angelo, and Emma Lee churning out illustrative lyrics and powerful harmonics. Written and recorded in Kaufman’s bedroom over the span of two weeks, their debut album “HEATWAVE” captures a compilation of sentimental moments – snapshots of youth through a New York summer, all immediately recognizable to those who’ve lived them (and those that have wished to).  

2) German singer Tanja Shitawey (née Hewer) (born February 15, 1972 in Villingen-Schwenningen), she represented Germany in the ESC 2001 with "Wer Liebe lebt" ("To Live for Love").
3) Michelle McManus from the UK was the UK Pop Idol winner in 2003 and is best known for "All This Time", just credited 'Michelle' on her releases.

4) Dutch singer Michelle Courtens participated at the ESC 2001, she did perform "Out on my own" to place 18.

5) Michelle Narine from Trinidad released the track "Standing Here All Alone" in 1996 in the UK.

6) Norwegian singer Michelle Purvis did perform "Baby don't stop the music" in the Norwegian selection to ESC 2008.

7) A four piece band from Spain that formed in 2000. They released their first full length album in 2007, titled Rock 'n' Roll Babilonia

Cold
Michelle Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Winter brings the silence
And silence calls the spring
I like to pick and choose the moments
The moments that I let you in
In my fortress of solitude
I've got secrets, truths, and some lies too
There's not much to hide from you
But I just can't let you in

I meant what I said to you
But words can't do justice to feeling blue
Though seemingly fine
I think we've resigned to being apart
Now you're no longer mine
I don't wanna say I'm sorry
Tales of you and I behind me
I don't wanna hear you're sorry
Cus all you're really doin' is lyin' to me
I don't mean to relay
What you mean to me
Been feeling empty lately
It's something you can't see
I don't want to delay
What you and I could be

Separate from this decay
Caused by you and me

Overall Meaning

The song "Cold" by Michelle is about the aftermath of a breakup and the feelings of loneliness and solitude that can arise during the winter season. The opening lines of the song, "Winter brings the silence and silence calls the spring," referencing how the cold weather and lack of activity during winter can make one feel isolated and alone. Michelle then sings about her difficulty in letting her former partner back into her life, despite the fact that she still has feelings for them.

Michelle notes that she has secrets, truths, and some lies, indicating that she has kept things from her former partner, and there's not much to hide from them, suggesting she's willing to divulge all. However, she still can't let the person back into her life, and it seems like they've both come to terms with being apart.

The chorus shows that Michelle is not interested in rekindling the relationship, and she wants to move on. She doesn't want to hear apologies or be sorry for what happened between them, as it won't fix anything. The bridge tells of her emptiness and how it's something her ex-partner can't see, but also how she doesn't want to drag out what could've been or keep living in the past with the decay of their relationship.
