Lies And RumoursAlannah Myles

You're playin' with my thunder, heavens knows I sometimes wonder who you are
You're so sweet but on the street, who do you meet when we're apart
I see trouble rollin' off you like rain
But I look up and I see lightning again

Between the lies and rumours, there's a world of mystery
But I believe in you, do you believe in me

I fell in love with danger, now I'm going through all these changes by myself
You're too cool to play by the rules, but I can't fool with someone else
People saying things I don't wanna hear
But something tells me we've got nothing to fear

Between the lies and rumours, there's a world of mystery
But I believe in you, do you believe in me

Too many heartaches, too little love, so many reasons for breaking us up
We've got something nobody knows, we got it good, you know I can't let it go

With all the lies and rumours, sometimes you gotta roll the dice
But I believe in you, and your cool blue eyes, baby

Between the lies and rumours, there's a world of mystery
But I believe in you, do you believe in me

Alannah Myles

When Alannah Myles played the role of a young aspiring singer on an episode of The Kids Of Degrassi Street, it was more than just an act. Less than a decade later, the daughter of Canadian Hall Of Fame Broadcaster William Douglas Byles would be a Grammy and Juno Award-winning singer best known for her 1990 international hit “Black Velvet”.

Myles (who changed her last name from Byles as a teen) began writing songs at nine and was participating in Toronto’s Kiwanis Music Festival at twelve. While gigging solo at nineteen across southern Ontario, songwriter/musician Christopher Ward invited her to form a rock and blues cover band with him. During this time Ward became MuchMusic’s first VJ.

Ward spent seven years trying to get Myles signed. He produced a three song demo for her, and her entertainment lawyer Stephen Stohn came up with the idea of making a ‘video demo’ of Myles singing “Just One Kiss”. This finally attracted Warner Music Canada in 1987. The demo was passed along to Warner’s US affiliate labels and Atlantic Records also took interest.
