About Sophie B. Hawkins
Sophie B. Hawkins is an American singer-songwriter. Born in New York City, she attended the Manhattan School of Music for a year as a percussionist before leaving to pursue a music career.[3] In the 1990s, she achieved critical and commercial success with her first two albums, producing a string of single hits including "Damn I Wish I Was Your Lover", "Right Beside You", and "As I Lay Me Down". A dispute with her record label Sony Music over her third album, Timbre, led her to establish her own independent label, Trumpet Swan Productions, which has published her subsequent recordings.
Hawkins is a long-time supporter of animal rights and environmental causes. She is also a social and political activist, supporting events promoting women in music and LGBTQ rights.

I much preferred the original video for "Damn! I Wish I Was Your Lover" to the version that eventually got into heavy rotation on MTV. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RQQpbRN1FrE&list=RDRQQpbRN1FrE&start_radio=1&pp=ygUtc29waGllIGIgaGF3a2lucyBkYW1uIGkgd2lzaCBpIHdhcyB5b3VyIGxvdmVyoAcB
