After stepping out of Rufus Wainwright's shadow (once a member of his band), this song on her second album sees them reunited once more. Her soft sensual voice is laid out over a simple, repetitive piano melody.

While U. S singer-songwriter Joan As Police Woman teams up with Rufus Wainwright to release the single 'To America' she is actually heading to Britain for a tour which kicks off tonight in Cambridge.
