Ayo

Ayo

Folk-soul chanteuse Ayo emerged as one of Europe's biggest new pop stars of 2006 with her breakthrough debut LP, Joyful. Born to a Nigerian father and gypsy mother in Cologne, West Germany, on September 14, 1980, as a child Ayo absorbed the musical traditions of her parentage as well as influences including American soul, reggae, and Afrobeat, all staples of her father's extensive record collection. Ayo first studied violin before moving to piano and guitar. At 21 she relocated to London, later dividing her time between Paris and New York City and earning attention while opening for neo-soul kindred spirits including Omar and Cody Chestnutt. After recording a five-song demo reel, Ayo briefly receded from the live circuit in late 2005 to give birth to her first child. Early the following year she signed to Polydor, and with producer Jay Newland completed Joyful (the English translation of her Yoruba name) in just five days. Buoyed by the lead single "Down on My Knees," the album fell just shy of the German Top Ten.

Letra de And It's Supposed To Be Love
Verse 1
Body slam you to the ground
Messaging a chill
Curses make the head go'round,
Brings a certain thrill.

Send you to another world
Mesmerize your brain
It's the jewel of a pearl
Makes you go insane

And it's supposed To be love
Yes, it's supposed to be love
Well, it's supposed to be love
Say 'cause it's all 'cause of love

Verse 2
It's a sad and lonely song
Sour grapes and tears
Something dark is going on,
Going on for years

Body slam your partner down
Up against the wall
It's a sad and scary scene
With no grace at all

And it's supposed to be love
Yes, it's supposed to be love
Well, it's supposed to be love
Say 'cause it's all 'cause of love

Verse 3
Wonder how it came to be.
Things with me and you.
How we lost the way to love,
How we got so blue.

Body slam your lover down,
Fill'em with regret
Who knows what the end will be.
It ain't over yet.

And it's supposed To be love
Yes, it's supposed to be love
Well, it's supposed to be love
Say 'cause it's all 'cause of love
