오스트레일리아가 배출한 가장 다이나믹하며 섹시한 여성 스타 중에 한명인 크리시 앰플렛과 기타리스트 마크 맥앤티를 주축으로 한 뉴웨이브 팝 / 록 밴드 Divinyls의 1991년 세계시장 성공작. 자국인 호주는 물론 미국/영국 차트에서 큰 성공을 거둔 싱글 ‘I Touch Myself’는 자극적이고 노골적인 가사로 US 음악 시장에 큰 파장을 몰고 온 곡이기도 하다. 초창기에 보여 주었던 강렬함과 와일드한 창법을 탈피하여 감미롭고 농익은 보컬을 들려주는 크리시 앰플렛의 보이스는 또 다른 매력을 발산하고 있으며 뉴웨이브의 다양한 음악적 어법과 록적인 강렬함이 탄탄한 멜로딕 센스로 채색된 곡들로 수놓아져 있다. 디바이닐스의 하드코어 팬들도 반길만한 싱글 ‘Love School’, 중독적인 ‘Make Out Alright’, ‘Bless My Soul (It's Rock-N-Roll)’, 밴드 최고의 히트곡 ‘I Touch Myself’ 등 11곡 수록.

For someone good looking what's the color of his hair Does he have a fortune I really just don't care If he needs the money I'll gladly pay his fare Summon him this very night what style should I wear my hair For my lover I need a lover
Dearest fairy godmother please wave your magic wand Please send me someone to whom I can hold on Genie in the bottle do you hear my plea If you don't answer my call I'll throw you in the sea

I am just a girl who thinks this life we lead Our destiny will follow one half of the world's asleep One half's awake that's all it takes to follow The sun that rises up is also setting too So make the most of it before it sets on you Don't follow don't follow follow through Even if it's just this once follow through
I am just a girl with thoughts unchained There's nothing gained by sorrow one half of the world's asleep One half's awake that's all it takes to wallow This could be the start of a whole new shape Of things to come don't leave it halfway through Don't leave before it's done don't follow don't follow Follow through even if it's just this once Follow through
This could be the start this could be the start This could be the start this could be the start Of a whole new shape of things to come Don't leave it halfway through don't leave before it's done Don't follow don't follow follow through
The sun that rises up is also setting too So make the most of it before it sets on you Don't follow don't follow even if it's just this once Follow through Follow, follow through Follow, follow through
Some people say some people do Some people say they do what about you Some people please some only tease If you pull the trigger you better be ready for me
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun Your love's got me on the run I've been shot like a bullet through the dark You're the target I'm right on the mark There's no mistake no matter what you do For my aim is true and I'm pointing straight at you
Baited words on candied hooks Making eyes and catching looks Tender traps that are laid so well You got me somewhere between heaven and hell
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun Your love's got me on the run I've been shot like a bullet through the dark You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake no matter what you do For my aim is true and I'm pointing straight at you
Some people lose some people win Some people are never happy 'till they do it again
I've been shot like a bullet from the gun Your love's got me on the run I've been shot like a bullet through the dark You're the target I'm right on the mark
There's no mistake no matter what you do For my aim is true and I'm pointing straight at you
Remember when we met The way you made me laugh How could I forget I found my better half But lately I've been feeling strong And you've been falling behind Oh tell me what went wrong 'Cos I can't read your mind
Chorus: I'm on your side Are you too blind to see I'm on your side You know I'm not the enemy Don't push me away There's nothing to hide I won't betray you baby I love you babe I'm on your side
Remember how we kissed The first time in the dark Your lips were on my lips Your heart was on my heart But last night when you went to sleep You turned your face to the wall If you put your faith in me I'll catch you when you fall
Chorus
Lately I've been feelng strong And you've been falling behind Oh tell me what went wrong 'Cos I can't read your mind
Chorus
I'll hold on to you No matter what it is You're going through babe I love you babe I love you babe I love you babe
