Jade - Mrs. Adams

Copied!

Have you heard the news today? Mrs. Adams passed away
No more shall we pass the time, sipping on the homemade wine
No more shall we pass the time, sipping on the homemade wine
No more shall we pass the time, sipping on the homemade wine

Have you heard the news today? My dearest friend has passed away
All I have left is a biscuit tin, the one she kеpt her photographs in
All I have left is a biscuit tin, thе one she kept her photographs in
All I have left is a biscuit tin, the one she kept her photographs in

Yes I've heard the news today, Mrs. Adams passed away
I have seen her room is dark and I have seen her curtains shut
I have seen her room is dark and I have seen her curtains shut
I have seen her room is dark and I have seen her curtains shut
No more shall we pass the time

Yes I've heard the news today, I had no chance to say goodbye
She hadn't finished telling me all about her holiday
She hadn't finished telling me all about her holiday
Hadn't finished telling me all about her holiday
No more shall we pass the time

No more shall we pass the time
No more shall we pass the time
No more shall we pass the time
No more shall we pass the time

edit bio

The group Jade was originally composed of Joi Marshall, Angela Slates and Debra Mitchell.

Producer Vassal Benford sold the song “I Wanna Love You” before Marshall, Slates and Mitchell’s voices were recorded on the song. In order to keep the song on the soundtrack for the 1992 Kid ‘n Play comedy Class Act, Benford had to reproduce the song with the actual voices of the group members. When that could not be accomplished he implored the record label to drop Slates and Mitchell from the group and replace them with Di Reed and Tonya Kelly who were the voices on the song and who were signed to his production company. Tonya Kelly and Di Reed were signed on by producer Vassal Benford, and the group’s name was extended to Jade.

Tonya grew up in Chicago listening to jazz vocalists such as Sarah Vaughan and Nat King Cole. Joi Marshall was also from Chicago but was raised on Motown, especially Diana Ross. Di Reed grew up in Houston singing gospel anywhere she could.
