Easton, Sheena - Do It For Love Lyrics






[Chorus:]
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?

Do you feel the same connection, make it right some way some how
Does it come from your emotions, open up the door a little wider now
Do you try to find the feeling, that should never go away
Can it really be so easy, just to make the feeling stay

But when you hold me tight, oh, I know why you're doing it
Coz love cant be denied, when you prove it, do it for love

Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?
(Cmon and prove it for love)
Do you, do you, do you, do you, do you do it for love?

When you promise its the real thing, promises that stay the same
Is it really love that you're feeling
Or just another pleasure you cant explain
Lift the lid from your emotions, does it matter what they say
Will you follow your own footsteps, baby let your heartbeat show you the way

But when you hold me tight, oh, I know why you're doing it
Coz love cant be denied, when you prove it, do it for love

[Chorus]
do it for love

Cmon and prove it for love

When you do me, when you hold me, when you fool me
When you do it, do it, do it, come on and do it!

[Chorus repeats x4]

    Sheena Easton is a Music Icon & One of the Best Voices of all time! I love the tone of her voice with a natural vocal range and sophisticated! This is one of her best videos !! I like how she looks at the camera, very natural! I am impressed by her way of interpreting with intensity and emotion and in how she projects her image and gestures according to her body movements, with attitude and giving meaning to the song!!

    Carla Linton. This is one of The best Jams by Sheena Easton. Do It For Love. This Song is one of my favorites old school jams back in the day. Do It For Love.. I used to Shake My Ass off of this song and still do.

    Reminds me of "Funky Little Beat" by Connie.

    "The Lover in Me" was a huge hit 3 years after this. "Days Like This" and "What Comes Naturally" were also minor R&B hits.

  31. A.... H....

    A very underrated Sheena Easton song!!

  32. F.... F....

    Thanks to Nile Rodgers from Chic the sound was just amazing😎

  33. M.... X....

    I don't know what song her band was playing but it was most certainly not the song she was singing lol.

    @Betito Chamoru lol...I'm a big fan of her too.

    M.... X....

    its raining like heck over here in San Diego City and for some strange reason I had this urge to hear this song and sugar walls too..lol.

    M.... X....

    @Betito Chamoru Usually, the rain seems to bring out the ballad side but the ears wants what it wants right?! :-) :-) :-)

    M.... X....

    Can you blame them? After all, they were in a confined space with one of the most distracting objects of the '80s.

  34. j.... l....

    this was the only hit on this album

  35. J.... B....

    feel the power!

    F.... M....

    @diggiddi He's the guy watching her from the back of the club throughout the video. A couple of good shots of him at 0:58
    and 2:54. He's not wearing a wig -- he was probably 20 years old here, so of course he had a full head of hair.

    F.... M....

    That kind of gig only goes to really really good looking men. Think zoolander when you read that comment.

    Mr. Chip

    SHOULDER PADS ARE BULLSHIT.
    🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕🖕

    M.... C....

    the clothes were fun though.

  47. y.... ....

    Wow ! the same look still hits me in the face each time, good voice and great Sheena. love her!

  48. m.... c....

    Her voice was a nice fit with Nile Rodgers production. Actually, this was a pretty good project that received close to no promotion when released. Her videos went back to being boring. I guess EMI was being stingy with the budget. Luckily we have her videos made during the MCA yrs.

    m.... c....

    Yes, but so would Kim Wilde's be too. In fact Nile Rodgers seemed to be more noted for working with the lesser lites as the decade went on-his fascination (like everyone) back then with born slag Madonna the no-talent troll of all the stolen music, manufactured attitude and bullshit songs. In fact this is one song of many that the Slagdonna would love to call "it's own", but it needed a proper singer with a great voice to bring it alive-to dilute its somewhat pedestrian sound otherwise, typical of many soul/dance pop of that era-and certainly of US lineage. So well done Sheena, even if the accompanying album wasn't quite what they were-a bit too Americanised. As for the videos, 80s videos tended to be more showy and eye-grabbing if the artist was weak or the songs were, Duran one of the exceptions. Many of the best acts ever-Kim Wilde, Kirsty MacColl, China Crisis, OMD, Bangles-so on-their videos were all that, but God, how much worse if the videos outstripped the songs in quality rather than the other way around!

    m.... c....

    mike curt interestingly guess who is EMI's new owner??

  49. L.... P....

    look who's in this video ..check the guy out

    L.... P....

    Yep, thats actor Billy Zane from Titanic!

  50. n.... m....

    Very good singer

  51. R.... M....
