Madeleine Peyroux is a jazz singer who was born in 1974 in Athens, Georgia (USA), and raised in New York City and Paris. She is noted for her vocal style, which is highly reminiscent of Billie Holiday. Madeleine also has similiar qualities of Ella Fitzgerald. Like Holiday, Peyroux was marketed as a jazz singer, when what she seems to do best is sing blues music. Though Peyroux may remind some listeners of Holiday, there are differences, and she has her own sense of phrasing and interpretation.

Hey Sweet Man Lyrics
Madeleine Peyroux
Hey sweet man
Who you give your lovin' to?
Hey sweet man
Who you give your lovin' to?
I gotta mind to love you
I'll love you through and through
Hey momma's child
Ain't you been waitin' for me?
Hey momma's child
Ain't you been waitin' for me?
I've gotta mind to love you
And my love won't leave you be
Hey sweet woman
I see you're searchin' too
Hey sweet woman
Ain't no man that love you
Hold on, pretty momma
Someday he'll be searchin' too
Well we need some lovin'
We need it oh-so-bad
We need some lovin'
We need it oh-so-bad
'Cause it's bad lovin', momma
It's the only thing we ever had
