'The Touch Of A Woman' (Zenana)

'The Touch Of A Woman', written by Anita Gabrielle in 1984 and performed by Zenana, is a song about coming out as lesbian. The track opens side 2 of Zenana's recent EP 'Witches'. The TV programme 'Gentleman Jack' (written by Sally Wainwright) details the struggles and triumphs of Anne Lister and her lover Ann Walker. This short video is a homage to all the women who risked public humiliation to bravely follow their hearts.
Zenana is a Farsi word meaning 'pertaining to women'

The Touch Of A Woman
I want you now and I need you too
What am I to do?
Experience counts in small amounts
This whole thing is so new
The touch of a woman, the touch of a woman
Is suicide, hard to find
Give me some love of a different kind
I should be home as it is so late
Why don’t I just go?
Dangerous glance, one slow dance
No one need ever know
The touch of a woman, the touch of a woman
Is suicide, hard to find
Give me some love of a different kind
Give me some love (Gonna give you, give you)
Of a different kind

Indeed so. Very different back in the 1980s when this song was written. But much always owed to brave women like Ann Lister
