1. The Jets are a family band from Minneapolis, Minnesota, composed of brothers and sisters who specialize in pop, R&B, and dance music, particularly Latin freestyle.
The group officially formed in 1985, with the original lineup fizzling out by 1990. Several members of the family stayed on throughout the 1990s, unofficially reviving the group in the mid to late 1990s as a gospel outfit with most of the original members present.
Various record companies have released collections of songs from the group's popular period, while the modern incarnation of the group continues to perform at various small venues, primarily casinos and private corporate functions.
2. The Jets formed in Utrecht, Netherlands in 1958 as The Rocking Explosives and debuted on stage in 1960. Their instrumental guitarmusic sounded similar to The Shadows. They renamed the band to The Jets in 1963. The group had a big hit in Japan with an instrumental version of 'Goldfinger' under the name The Goldfingers (due to another band in Japan called The Jets). In 1966 The Jets were aiming for succes in England and recorded the single The Pied Piper, a later hit in the version by Crispian St. Peters. The Jets reformed in 1982 and still performs today.
3. Great pop has not been as prominent this decade as in the last but songwritters Graham and Mick are helping to remedy that. It's obvious they share the thoughts and dreams of John, Paul, The Hollies and Dave Clark. Both cuts are previously released as a single, TTR 7805.

Private Number
The Jets Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
You're the combination
The secret word that unlocked my door
Remedy to ease the pain
You keep the smile on my face
My heart's in overdrive
But when did I last try to get inside
I've got nothing to say
And that's the wasted time
Just idle talking
May you never do mistakes
Love
You got the key
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
I've got an unlisted telephone
So any time I hear it ring
It has to be you that's calling
Don't have to hide behind an answering machine
I'd like to feel you're in me
For making shadows in the night
And through the curtain lace
Your light has seen me
It shines bright as the sun
You always leave a trace
Of what I'm thinking
You'll always be my
Number one 'cause
You got the key
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
You got the key
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
Anytime you feel that we
Should make a love connection
You'll never find a busy sign
The line is clear to my affection
Private number, private number
Private number
You got the key
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
You got the key
My private number
Exclusively, there's no other half
For me
The song "Private Number" by The Jets is a love song about two people who have found the perfect connection. The singer tells his lover that she has the key to his heart, and that they have a private number that no one else can access. He uses metaphor to explain how she is the secret word that has unlocked his heart's door, and that she is the remedy to ease his pain. He says that she is everything that he has been wishing for.
The lyrics suggest that the two of them are deeply in love and are each other's halves. They have a strong emotional connection that is not easily possible with anyone else. The singer expresses how he feels happy and content when he is with her, and that she keeps a smile on his face. The song also talks about how the singer has an unlisted phone number and that he knows it's her when it rings. He wants her to know that she doesn't have to hide behind an answering machine, and that she can always reach him. The song ends with the singer telling his lover that she is his number one, and that they have a private number that no one else can access.

You got the key
You have my heart and all my love
My private number
You have access to my deepest thoughts and feelings
Exclusively, there's no other half
I only have eyes for you
For me
You are my one and only
You're the combination
You are the missing piece that completes me
The secret word that unlocked my door
You were the one who opened my heart and let me love again
Remedy to ease the pain
You heal me and make everything better
You're every thing that I've been wishing for
You are the fulfillment of all my hopes and dreams
You keep the smile on my face
You make me happy and bring joy to my life
My heart's in overdrive
I am deeply and completely in love with you
But when did I last try to get inside
I have been holding back and not expressing my feelings
I've got nothing to say
I am speechless in your presence
And that's the wasted time
Not expressing my love has been a mistake
Just idle talking
Our conversations have been superficial and meaningless
May you never do mistakes
I hope to never lose your love because of my mistakes
Love
Love is the most important thing in my life
I've got an unlisted telephone
You are the only one who has access to my heart
So any time I hear it ring
I am always hoping it is you on the other end
It has to be you that's calling
No one else could make my heart skip a beat like you do
Don't have to hide behind an answering machine
I am always here to answer your call, no matter what
I'd like to feel you're in me
I want to be intimately connected with you
For making shadows in the night
Our love is like a secret that we share
And through the curtain lace
Even when we are physically apart, I feel your presence
Your light has seen me
You have illuminated my life and made everything better
It shines bright as the sun
Your love is like a beacon of light in my life
You always leave a trace
You have left an indelible mark on my heart
Of what I'm thinking
You know me better than I know myself
You'll always be my
I will always love you
Number one 'cause
Because you are everything to me
Anytime you feel that we
Whenever you are ready to take our relationship to the next level
Should make a love connection
If you want to be intimately connected with me
You'll never find a busy sign
My love for you is always available and ready
The line is clear to my affection
I am ready and willing to love you with all my heart
Private number
Our love is a private and special thing
Private number
No one else could ever come between us
Private number
Our love is unique and special, just like us
