Ohhhh! Thanks you guys sooooooo very much for all your wonderful comments!! We have a brilliant time in the 80's, didn't we? The Good Old Days!!! (smile) God bless, much love and appreciation!!! Audrey - SHOKK xxxxxx
It’s taken me 32 years to find this song!!!! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT! Reminds me of my freshman year at University in Lagos, Nigeria, 1988! Luckily a friend sent me a DJ mix during Covid lockdown and it was there!!! I almost lost my mind from pure joy and excitement!🤸🏾♀️😅 He told me the name of the band and here it was on TH-cam!!!💃🏽😅💖 THANK YOU SHOKK for making this Amazing song! 🙏🏽🥰
I always thought that I was one of those people that bought these types of records that other people wouldn't want to listen to. I always loved this record and still have the 12inch from when I bought the track from its original release date. Uk Soul and Rnb back then seemed more polished then does today. But is it just me?; and to have Audrey from Shokk actually commenting on the track that she made all those years ago makes it even better. Well done Audrey for making that tune!
@SAWYT You know, there has been so many wonderful comments about AMAZIN and it really fills my heart!!! The 80s were filled with so many experiences which has fashioned our lives here in 2010!!! Sometimes it feels like a lifetime ago when you see how the world has changed but then, you put on a tune....and the 80s are BACK...ALIVE AND KICKING!!! (smile) Thanks so much! Best wishes. Audrey - SHOKK
@mustmint Thank you so much mustmint!!! That's so very kind!!! We had lots of fun in the 80s and, because we were an Independent label, we able to have the autonomy to produce the tracks that were uninhibited reflections of that WE wanted to create without being governed by any outside influences of what the major labels wanted from us as artist and as songwriters! This is the energy that came across for much of the brilliant music that was produced in this era! Much luv ! Audrey - SHOKK x
@TaiCaliusa Awwww!! Thanks so much!!! The year 88 was absolutely correct because I was actually pregnant with my son whilst we were performing this track around the UK!!! The good old days!! (smile) Thanks once again for all your love and support!!!!! Much appreciated and much love!! Audrey from SHOKK
@bgrayshon Hi there!!!! Ohhh!! I am in tears!!! Thank you so much for your so very kind expressions!! Those days bring back sooooooo many wonderful memories!!!! Please, keep supporting SHOKK!! I really appreciate!! AND WATCH OUT FOR THE BRAND NEW 2010 VERSION OF "AMAZIN" God bless you always! Love and Hugs!!! Audrey - SHOKK!!!!
No. Thank YOU and Julien for bringing this song into my life. I've been playing it again tonight and I still love it the same way today as I did back then. It will be with me all my life.
This song means so much to me. We have to appreciate your tunes that made the 80's times of our lives. I just wish you guys could drop some other tunes pleaseeeeeeeeeeee. BAD JAM.
This is a wicked tune had not heard it for 30 years but the words stuck in my head... it was played on mi-soul today and I’ve found it - amazin!! Thank you xx
Love this tune and the B side Stay....I remember an old girlfriend going through my vinyl and seeing this (and I still have all my collection)...she then told me her auntie was the lead singer, never met her though which was a shame.
LOL! Thanks so much Yomi!! I wrote this song whilst I was in the kitchen cooking! Julian was in the studio and I was in the kitchen cooking, heard the track and started singing the words and came up with the melody instantly!! And thus.... AMAZIN was born! And, I was actually four months pregnant with our son, when we recorded it so brings back lots of great memories! Peace, Love, Light and Blessings - Audrey - SHOKK! xxxx
Hey Ali! Yes Indeed! We really enjoyed coming and performing in Birmingham, Bradford, Leeds, Yorkshire, Blackpool, Newcastle and all those excellent clubs in the Midlands! The GOOD OLD DAYS!! Thanks for your continued love and support and keeping this track alive! Blessings! Audrey xxx SHOKK!!
+VocalZonesUSA How does it feel listening back to your old stuff & seeing how different the world is now with technology and things? is it nostalgic, does it hurt? i can only imagine how good it must of been back then
@VocalZonesUSA Wow, hi there back. Cant believe I got a reply from yourself, speaking to one of my fave artists from back in the day, anyways her name was Sandra and she was from Brixton Water Lane. Met her at work in the late 90's. I do love the 80's soul scene, especially British Soul, we gave the USA a run for their money, but unfortunately it wasnt appreciated enough back home, apart from those in the know. Well, take care of yourself aswell, and release some new toons....please!!!! Tel
Mixsensei You reign supreme. I heard this back in London in 1988 on radio but did know the group and have not heard it since then. I was searching through for your songs hoping for this especially as i found St Paul's- Intimacy ,posted at your channel. You r Da Man . Keep it coming :))
@Telboy2011 Hi there!!! Thanks for your lovely comments!!! It made me smile!!! Who was the old girlfriend??? I really had a SHOKK when I just logged on and saw that we had had over 4,200 views!!! Very touched and very humbled!!! Take care of yourself and God bless always!!! Audrey - from SHOKK!! x
Tunz from this group are like 'hens teeth', very hard to find, and rare indeed! MP3 or CD have not seen anything, but surprisingly you can still get them on Vinyl. I had the privaledge of chatting with the lead singer of this group (through my other post; YOU LOCK ME OUT).
Hi there stclever! I just came across your response!! Our names are Audrey Beharie and Julian Francois! Thanks so much for your support! Much appreciated! Blessings. Audrey - Shokk
Hey Yomi!!! Yes indeed! I moved to Atlanta a good few years now and still keeping my hand at songwriting and producing!! Thanks for your love and support!! Sooooo appreciated! Peace, love, light and blessings Audrey xx
@bjcapital Same Here, Think It was Radio London Or Possibly LWR,The Late Legendary Steve Walsh Also Introduced This One To The Crowds @ Blueberries In Southall.
Should be at work this morning but going through your stuff.. Work will have to wait. Sensei, you are the man! This is a Natalie Cole track originally if I am not mistaken Prof.
Yes . I just read it on the board :on "Lock me out". That is truly amazin :)) Since you are my music genie.. there was a song playing on radio in London at around the same time as Amazin' and Intimacy for St Paul- it says in the Chorus : Can't you see that love has no reign ( or something), let;s make love tonight ... ( or so) .. i believe it was a group ( both males and female vocals ) ?? Any help Mixsensei ?
Hi there! Thanks so very much!! Your continued support after 28 years is simply AMAZING!! LOL! Peace, love and blessings Audrey Beharie - Singer/Songwriter and Producer (SHOKK!!) xx
Wow, thank you. It was one of my favorites. I used to play it out loud in my car back in the day. I just had to sell my 2,350 vinyl collection, mostly 12" singles that were only played once or twice, like yours, and saved about 10 of them, this single of yours being one of them. Thanks again. :) xx
