The album starts with a song called OUT OF REACH, a broken hearted lover's dilema which tells the story of the partnership which is never to be. This song is also released as a single and available in the high street record shops.

Next comes FEELING HIGH, a club dance track showing off the Sahota's distinctive sound.
Feeling high - are you feeling high? Feeling high - are you feeling high? I see your face Hear the sound (I want this) I'm not spaced Or drug down (I am conscious) Come and close your eyes Let the music take you Feeling high - are you feeling high? Feeling high - are you feeling high? What's this rush I feel with you? (elation) Something strong Something new (a new sensation) Like a butterfly Let the music take you Feeling high - are you feeling high? Feeling high - are you feeling high? Nothing fake Nothing wrong (no suffering) No more waiting For the dawn (it's a good thing) Nothing to deny Where the music takes you Feeling high - are you feeling high? Feeling high - are you feeling high? |
Now it was the right time to record RIGHT TIME, a song with a message.
Ask yourself why you survive Will your brother stay alive Show your mind a way of living It's the right time for you It's the right time you know It's the right time for you It's the right time you know Tell yourself a new day's here Show your strong side, conquer fear Find a way of always winning It's the right time for you It's the right time you know It's the right time for you It's the right time you know Be the one who's clearly free Make the one road for you and me Give all for your living freedom It's the right time for you It's the right time you know It's the right time for you It's the right time you know |
EYES FOR ME is a funky love song which defies classification.
SHINE YOUR LIGHT SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME MY TWO EYES DON'T WORK LIKE BEFORE I'VE BEEN DOWN WITH MY EAR TO THE FLOOR NOW I'VE HEARD WHAT I COULD NOT SEE SOMEONE SAID YOU HAD EYES FOR ME SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME I CAN'T SENSE WHAT YOUR TWO EYES SEE FEEL YOUR GAZE AS IT TOUCHES ME HEAR YOUR PRAYER THROUGH THIS WALL OF NIGHT ALL MOST THERE OH BUT NOT QUITE SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME LIGHT MY PATH WITH YOUR FLASH LIGHT SMILE TAKE SAFELY THROUGH THIS WORLD OF TRIAL POINT THE WAY WITH YOUR LASER EYES CAST YOUR RAYS THROUGH THIS THIN DISGUISE SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME YOU CAN SEE THAT THESE EYES ARE DEAD PLEASE HELP ME TO SEE THROUGH YOURS INSTEAD BUT DON'T BE TOO QUICK TO HAND THEM TO ME I WANT YOU TO KEEP THEM IN YOUR HEAD SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME SHINE YOUR LIGHT SO WE MAY SEE SHINE YOUR EYES ON WHAT SHALL COME TO BE SHINE YOUR LIGHT WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME WOMAN SHINE YOUR EYES FOR ME |
Recording is a very slow business at the best of times but when Surjit and Mucky get together perfection is the name of the game and they are never satisfied until the sound is just right.
LOVE FIRE you'll recognise, different words but it's the same tune as Mahi De Udeek. It's an up tempo version of the ISHK track but still that great sound.
As I stand here waiting for love Emptiness is all that I hold The coldness around me Her love fire drives me insane Her love fire drives me insane As I picture moments with you Precious thoughts of you never do I need to be with you Your love fire drives me insane Your love fire drives me insane May I loose myself to be found By your tender love we are bound The power you give me Your love fire drives me insane Your love fire drives me insane Just to follow where you may go Give you love you would never know My girl is an angel Her love fire drives me insane Her love fire drives me insane Lying with you close in my arms With the light of day you are gone My dreams leave me empty Her love fire drives me insane Her love fire drives me insane |
A serious look at today's society is presented next in YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH, listen to the words and ask yourself if it's true.
I DON'T CARE WHAT MOULD THEY CAST YOU IN DON'T CARE WHERE YOU WERE BORN OR WHERE YOU BEEN DON'T CARE TO SHARE YOUR PRIDE OR YOUR SHAME ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS YOUR NAME YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH DON'T WANT READ THE LABEL ON YOUR JACKET DON'T WANT TO KNOW YOUR INCOME BRACKET DON'T WANT TO PLAY THE NUMBERS GAME ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS YOUR NAME YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH NO NEED TO PROVE YOUR - LOVE TO ME NO NEED LIST YOUR - HISTORY ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS YOUR NAME YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME - IS ENOUGH I DON'T CARE WHAT MOULD THEY CAST YOU IN DON'T CARE WHERE YOU WERE BORN OR WHERE YOU BEEN NO NEED TO LIST YOUR FAMILY HISTORY ALL I WANT TO KNOW IS YOUR NAME YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH - YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH - YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH - YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH - YOUR NAME IS ENOUGH |
You've already heard HASS HOGIA, that was released as a single just to keep all the fans happy. There is a different mix for the album, it's a much stronger sound. I think you'll like it.

BE WITH YOU is the balad on this album (John is still waiting for LET US PRAY, but that's another story). Always the Sahotas have "knocked 'em down" with the slow songs and this is certainly no exception.
