at17 rare and special

I am very very much in like with you
I hope that it's enough 'cause it's all I can do
'Cause you treat my skin like porcelain,
Rare and special porcelain
Even though you know I know you know
That this is not the real thing...
Oh, isn't it enough what I'm giving to you, baby?
Oh, isn't it enough that your kisses drive me crazy?
Oh, isn't it enough, isn't it enough?
I read a book like you, it says for what it's worth
People only really get what they deserve
And I hear a voice cry out within
Relax, enjoy the porcelain
Treatment feels like liquid gold
A treasured hand for me to hold
Oh, isn't it enough what I'm giving to you, baby?
Oh, isn't it enough that your kisses drive me crazy?
Oh, isn't it enough, isn't it enough?
Porcelain, porcelain
You treat my skin like porcelain...
In the big, big scheme of things
Beyond the rare and special porcelain
Beyond the joy, joy and the dis-at-ease
Well there's a place for me...
Porcelain, porcelain....
Sometimes I think I should say I love you too
If words are free, why can't I spare the best for you?
'Cause you treat my skin like porcelain
Rare and special porcelain
Even though you know I know you know
I'm cracked from all of this living
Oh, isn't it enough what I'm giving to you, baby?
Oh, isn't it enough that your kisses drive me crazy?
Oh, isn't it enough that I'm checking for you, baby?
Oh, isn't it enough that your kisses drive me crazy?
Oh, isn't it enough, isn't it enough?
Isn't it enough?
Isn't it enough?


Porcelain. Originally by Julia Fordham.

One of at17's entries at a music competition which first got them noticed.

at17. The dynamic duo. The two E's - Eman Lam and Ellen Lo.

Character. Talent. Hot. And Cool. They're all that. And the best bit is you tend to relate to them - they're ordinary looking girls with talent, with tenacity and with the belief that music should be fun and from the heart.

A guitar, a microphone and a stage. Like Chet, that's all they need to hold an audience captive.

And again like Chet, I'll be catching them live soon too! Oh my god. Three amazing performers in one day. No shade, no seat, standing all day, I hope I won't die of heatstroke or some other stroke! Even if i do, let me finish watching their performances first!

Chet and at17 in Singapore. Soon.

*breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out...*

Must. Act. All. Cool. And. Nonchalant. When. In. Their. Presence.
