Moloko
Moloko /məˈloʊkoʊ/ were an English-Irish music duo from Sheffield, England. The duo consisted of vocalist Róisín Murphy and producer Mark Brydon.
History
Murphy had no prior professional experience as a singer when Moloko was formed. Brydon, had previously worked on music as a producer with musicians such as Boy George and Cabaret Voltaire on releases from the 1990s. In 1994, the two met at a party in Sheffield, where Murphy approached Brydon with the chat-up line, "Do you like my tight sweater? See how it fits my body!" The query became their début album's title, recorded while Murphy and Brydon had begun dating. The name Moloko originates from the Russian word for milk, молоко.
The group signed to Echo Records and released their single "Where Is the What If the What Is in the Why?" The group's debut album Do You Like My Tight Sweater?, was released in 1995. The group toured with the group Pulp following the release.
After Moloko finished the tour, they built a home studio and recorded their second album titled I Am Not a Doctor which was released in 1998 in the United Kingdom. Their third album Things to Make and Do was released in the early 2000s. Brydon and Murphy ended their romantic relationship after the release of their 2003 album Statues and following a tour, disbanded the group.

Take My Hand
by: MolokoPins, needles and butterflies
Into deeper pools I dive
To re-emerge
Almost submerged
Ultraviolet
Is it slight of hand
Or the surest touch
You caught me as I fell
And put me on a pedestal
Can you be sure thats right?
My king of hearts
Are we the only two
To feel so powerless
And yet so powerful
And all at once
We are all at one
So take my hand and
Well explore a land of mellow truthfulness
Something deep in you
Touches something
So deep in me
And suddenly destiny
Lays down in front of me
Its what I
Was designed to do
To touch something so deep in you
And suddenly awake sleeping sensitivity
I was a run away
But what was I running too
You stopped me in my tracks
When I turned back
All I could see is you
The wind
telling tales of golden histories
Whispering among the trees
Of heaven and its mysteries
And soon
We two will commune
Like the spheres of sun and moon
The perfume of the rose in bloom
Something deep in you
Touches something
So deep in me
And suddenly destiny
Lays down in front of me
Its what I
Was designed to do
To touch something so deep in you
