French had been a session singer for many years before she covered "Total Eclipse Of The Heart", a song made famous by Bonnie Tyler. Her single was first released in 1994 in the United Kingdom. When it was re-released in 1995 the song reached no. 5 during a 3 month chart run, selling over 5 million copies in the process and earning a silver sales award and well as becoming her record lable 'Love This' biggest chart success.
This was followed by even more successful chart run in the United States, where the track reached no. 2 and spent 6 months on the Billboard Hot 100 music charts. The single also reached number 1 in seven countries - Australia, Japan, Canada, Israel, Spain, Hong Kong and Brazil, as well as charting in Sweden, Ireland, Germany, Italy, Mexico, The Netherlands, Denmark and Norway. She went onto win a record breaking 3 awards at the 'Dance Music Rasberry Authority Magazine Awards' in the USA - Single Of The Year (Total Eclipse Of The Heart), Newcomer and Female Vocalist Of The Year.
Nicki represented the United Kingdom at the EuroVision Song Contest in 2000 with "Don't Play That Song Again" which finished in 16th position.

Nicki French Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Don't stop now
Give me sunshine and give me rain
Give me a love, baby, that feels insane
Show me the magic that I can't ignore
Days and nights of you wanting more and more
Can't get enough
Of your joy and your pain and your tender touch
Keep me going
'till I tell you to stop
Got you moving so come on, give
it up
It's a lovely day because you are mine
Can't be a better place or a
better time
So give your love to me, do it ready to drop
Don't waste my time...
Chorus:
Oh, come on and give it up now
(give me just a little)
Don't stop now
(give me just a little)
You got me wanting more and more
Of this precious love,
I've been waiting for So give it up now
(give me just a little)
Don't stop now
