WHIPS AND PREDICAMENTS I’ve got to hand it to you You’re the first to play me for a fool It’s not a role I’ve rehearsed, But you took me to school Now I’m runnin’ around, Baby, I’m the talk of the town So I’m singing the blues There’s been no one else To fill your shoes Now it’s all making sense There’s no past, no future There’s only the present tense No matter which way Love will always lead to Whips and predicaments You’re a pie in the sky I’m a butterfly Yes, it’s a dangerous brew But we do it again and again It’s a catch 22 Now, I don’t need a friend It’s brutal but true We started as lovers Lost under the covers It’s how it will end Now it’s all making sense There’s no past, no future There’s only the present tense No matter which way Love will always lead to Whips and predicaments Written by Vanessa Daou and Anthony Patrick Gatlin Published by Vandal Publishing (ASCAP) / Rebellum At Large Productions (SESAC) ℗ 2019

about

With her latest release ‘Songs For Summer’, Vanessa Daou brings together a collection of her songs that capture the carefree and sultry days of summertime: steamy nights that lead to crimson sunrises, reggae tinged rhythms mixed with jazz-fueled piano meanderings, and Daou's signature voice, which is at once, a whisper in your ear, and a siren call that reaches you from some distant shore.

It’s the latest offering from her DaouTempo sub-label imprint, which was launched last year (with the 'Songs For Lovers' compilation) as an outpost for Vanessa's more experimental works, side projects, special collaborative works and various themed compilations.

The immersive sun-soaked set features 14 balmy and breezy tropical moods including: "Sunday Afternoons (The Chill Way)", “Two To Tango (Milk & Honey Mix)", "Once In A While", “Waiting For The Sun To Rise”, “Pleasure and Pain”, "Consequences (Blank & Jones Late Night Mix)" and the exclusive new track "Whips and Predicaments".

Includes productions by Blank & Jones, Peter Daou, Kahari Mays, Anthony Rebellum, Ralphi Rosario, We Versus (Gray Devio and Bopa King Carre), and Vanessa Daou.
