    "Beauty In the Breakdown" is a collection of stories, impeccably set to song, chronicling the singer-songwriter's journey of the many human layers of a relationship from passion, love and the broken end.

    Once upon a time, Jean met "L" on a hot, steamy night. Their connection was only slightly more instant than the sex, and the romance was a whirlwind of passion, ghosts and broken mirrors.

    Four years, many tears and masquerades of deceit later, Jean rises out of her own heartbreak to tell her honest story of a love that should never have been, a person that never was, and how it brought her to her own defining moment of "Beauty in the Breakdown".

    THE MUSIC

    With a thunderous voice, poetically explosive lyrics and a sizzling, virtuoso band, "Beauty in the Breakdown" is set on fire with an incendiary blend of modern, danceable Pop-Funk with rocked-out Urban flare.

    Genre-defiant influences of Prince & the Revolution's "Purple Rain", with heartfelt dysfunction of Fleetwood Mac's "Rumors", sealed with the cool-factor of Justin Timbelake's "FutureSexLoveSound" Jean Morisson has sophistically married different styles that melt together, brilliantly.

    Special guests include Nile Rodgers (Madonna, David Bowie, Duran Duran), Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Raymond Angry (The Roots, Joss Stone, D'Angelo) and more.

lyrics

Why are you looking
Hooking me to look around your way?
You know I'm taken
But you have so much you want to say

It's like The Raven
Knock-knock-knocking right outside my door
Cause if I touch you
I am lost forever, evermore

[STOP] Please don't do it
I'm on fire baby wanting you
[STOP] Please don't do it
Once it's done I'll be so into you
I know it's wrong
But I've waited oh so long

Here you come
You're coming over here, so close again
Pressed against me
Like a devil burning in my skin
Not and angel
Won't pretend I'm working out my sin
Look what you've done
It's gonna hurt so good, so deep within

[STOP] Please don't do it
I'm on fire baby wanting you
[STOP] Please don't do it
Once it's done I'll be so into you
I know it's wrong
But I've waited oh so long

I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
And I don't want to let go
I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
I don't know how to say no

This corner's perfect
And you know just what you want to do
I feel you touch me, you're so dirty
I'm so into you
Oh baby please don't
I can't take your sex against the door
My mind is saying no
But I just want you on the floor

[STOP] Please don't do it
I'm on fire baby wanting you
[STOP] Please don't do it
Once it's done I'll be so into you
I know it's wrong
But I've waited oh so long

I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
And I don't want to let go
I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
I don't know how to say no

Got your eye on the prize [and that's the game]
With your brand new idea [to all you Mrs. Fame]
You've got your target on me [in the line of sight]
That's why you call me in the middle of the night

I'm just a Gigolo, I'm just a Gigolo - oh, oh
I'm just a Gigolo, I'm just a Gigolo - oh, oh, oh

I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
And I don't want to let go
I'm just a Gigolo
I know it's so
I don't know how to say no
