It's Tracey Ullman's "They Don't Know" from 83. Early 80's she's had two
excellent years with quite a few hits and then she focused on her acting
career... I think she lives in the US these days.

They Don't Know
===============
You've been around for such a long time now
Oh maybe I could leave you
But I don't know how
And why should I be lonely every night
When I can be with you
Oh yes you make it right

And I don't listen to the guys who say
That you're bad for me
And I should turn you away
'Cause they don't know about us
And they've never heard of love

I get a feeling when I look at you
Wherever you go now
I wanna be there too
They say we're crazy
But I just don't care
And if they keep on talking
Still they get nowhere

So I don't mind if they don't understand
When I look at you
When you hold my hand
'Cause they don't know about us
And they've never heard of love

Why should it matter to us if they don't approve
We should just take our chances while we've got nothing to lose

Baby
There's no need for living in the past
Now I've found good lovin' gonna make it last
I tell the others, "Don't bother me"
'Cause when they look at you
They don't see what I see

No, I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open
And I see the signs
'Cause they don't know about us
And they've never heard of love

No, I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open
And I see the signs
'Cause they don't know about us
And they've never heard of love

No, I don't listen to their wasted lines
Got my eyes wide open
And I see the signs
'Cause they don't know about us
And they've never heard of love

Ciao!

Really? I wondered why the version opening her HBO show seemed so much like the
original hit while still sounding like Tracy Ullman.

Ahem ! Don't you mean Kirsty McColl ?

Yeah, she says in the CD liner notes from "You Broke My Heart In 17
Pieces" that she stopped recording because "I won't put people through
that again." I don't know about that--compared to people like Donna
Lewis and Crystal Bernard that are making hits with those squeaky
little voices, she would do well to make some more music. Granted,
she needs to lay off the doo-wop and stick to the more serious work,
like "They Don't Know". That's where she really shines.

I tend to lean toward Kirsty MacColl as well.
