英國美女歌姬［席娜．伊斯頓］早期作品──流行佳作──［Take My Time／慢慢來］

When I was young, people used to say

Someday the right one will come your way

Could be tomorrow, could be today

But when he does, youll know it right away, till then Ill

Take my time, lookin for the right one,

I need a lover that stays around

Im gonna take my time, lookin for the right one

I need somebody to tie me down

And so I waited patiently, will it be like my fantasy

The only problem I cant foresee, will I find him or will he find me

And if he does, will he understand, that Ive the future already planned

And Ill do everything that I can

Wont take no chances, wont show my hand, Im gonna

Take my time, lookin for the right one,

I need a lover that stays around

Im gonna take my time, lookin for the right one

I need somebody to tie me down

Oooh, I need a lover, oooh, to tie me down, oooh, I need a lover around

Im gonna

Take my time, lookin for the right one,

I need a lover that stays around

Im gonna take my time, lookin for the right one

I need somebody to tie me down

１９８０年夏天　２１歲的英國新人席娜．伊斯頓（Sheena Easton）以第二首單曲〔9 to 5〕（UK#3）走紅

首支單曲〔Modern Girl〕也反彈回排行榜＃８　讓她成為首位同時擁有兩首單曲在Top１０的英國女歌手

第三首單曲〔One Man Woman〕登上英國榜＃１４　成為伊斯頓第三首Top２０單曲

１９８１年初　席娜在英國發行由Christopher Neil製作的首張大碟［Take My Time／慢慢來］

同名歌曲做為第四主打

這首流行曲由Paul Bliss, Phil Palmer譜寫

節拍輕快討好, 伊斯頓當時清嫩的嗓音也甜美可人

只是［Take My Time］反應不如預期, 只登上英國單曲榜＃４４

另外拿到紐西蘭＃５０　德國＃６４

儘管成績不算亮眼　仍讓大碟登上英國榜＃１７　拿到金唱片

１９８１年春天　專輯才在美國發行，　並以［Sheena Easton］名之
