She was the passenger in the car when her mother was killed in an accident on a mountain road 13 September 1982. Rumours persist to this day that Stéphanie was driving. She was unable to attend her mother's funeral because she was in hospital with injuries from the crash.
In February 1986 Stéphanie released her first single with the French label 'Carrere', under the production of Yves Roze. The song Ouragan (Hurricane) and its English version "Irresistible" quickly reached the international Top 10, reportedly selling more than 5 million copies. In September, she released a full album called "Besoin" reportedly selling more than 2.5 million copies(also released as 'Stephanie' in some countries) with 8 new songs, including 'Flash' (in French), which was released as a single and reached the hit parade all over Europe. In January, 1987, she released the single "Young Ones Everywhere" to benefit UNICEF. By the end of 1986, she was the queen of all European media, with her voice on the top ten on the radio, her video clips recorded in exotic lands like Mauritius, appearances on TV, and her picture in every magazine.
In 1987 Stephanie moved to Los Angeles to dedicate herself to music and live with her then-boyfriend, Mario Oliver. However, it took 5 years for the product to come out, and sales were disappointing, only 3000 copies. The album had 10 songs, including the single 'Winds of Chance' for which the video clip was recorded in the Canary Islands. The producers tried to leave her Europop style behind and create a more grown-up album with English-only lyrics, though she sounded better in French. Her first and only live tour took place in the summer of 1991 in Europe and South America to promote the album called Stéphanie released in the U.S. by Sony Music. U.S. critics gave the album negative reviews and focused on her privileged background, which they felt discredited her efforts. She also recorded "In the Closet" with Michael Jackson under the alias of Mystery Girl for his album, Dangerous. She then ended her pop music career.

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I need to see you
When can you come over
I wanna get away
I wanna get away far away
Take me to your place
When Im at home sittin all alone
Thinking of you and places we can go to
I gotta get out of this place
Baby wont you come and take me away
I wanna get away far away
Sometimes I feel like when youre not around
Times are hard and Im feeling down
You would coem over and take me away
You and me we can escape
I wanna get away far away
Loving you you loving me
Thats the way I dreamed it always be
Escaping with a passion to a whole little world
Time and love thats all we need to tell that
I need you with sense of passion
Music playing you and me are dancing
I need you with a sense of passion
Making love in your arms romancing
I need you that Ill have to say
With you my love I wanna get away
I wanna get away
Get away
Get away
I wanna ge away far away
Take me to your place
Lets go far away
When were together life is so sweet
You and me we have a destiny
To become lovers and not just friends
You and me will never end
Get away
Get away
I wanna get away
I wanna get away
Get away
