" 'Fool For Love' has
already been compared to Kate Bush by 'Music Week' and its bold use of solo
voice and string quartet creates a sound that is completely different from
the mainstream and yet fits right in it."

"The debut Tara Blaise album
'Dancing On Tables Barefoot' features Tara's unmistakeable vocal sound in a
range of styles from confessional through meditative to classic pop."
"Spokes is the label of John Hughes - someone we
admire very much as manager of The Corrs and musical director on The
Commitments movie. Tara Blaze is a 27 year-old from Ireland (County Wicklow
via Dublin). Radio 2 have just playlisted this, proving they will still go
out on a limb on new talent if it's good enough - for this single is
undoubtedly a work of class and beauty."
Original title 'Fool For Love' and release date was December 20 2004.

LINER NOTES
God's Laughter: Written by Brendan Kennelly. Read by Bono.
Bono is the lead singer of the Irish rock group U2. U2 released their first
album in 1980 and have since sold over 100 million albums worldwide, winning
14 Grammy's, and six Brit Awards along the way. Bono lives in Dublin with
his wife and four children.
OTHER NOTES
This book project was put together to benefit Focus Ireland, a group in
Ireland which aims to combat homelessness and to advance the rights of
homeless people in Ireland. Each poem collected in the book is also read by
someone on the contained three audio discs. It is here that Bono performs,
as he reads "God's Laughter" written by Brendan Kennelly on the first disc.
On the third disc one finds U2's manager, Paul McGuinness, reading "Shapes
and Shadows" by Derek Mahon. On the middle disc of the set, long-time U2
collaborator, Gavin Friday adds "From the Ballad of Reading Gaol" by Oscar
Wilde.
Others contributing to the readings are politicians, movie stars, and Irish
celebrities. Anyone who's followed U2 closely over the years should
recognize more than a few of the names on the above list.
