In Your Care

"In Your Care" is the second single released by singer-songwriter Tasmin Archer. It was released in early 1993 but failed to pick up as much airplay and media support as "Sleeping Satellite", stalling at number 16 on the UK Singles Chart. The song also managed to chart in New Zealand at number 36, but only stayed in the top 50 for a week. The money made from this release was donated to the charity Child Line.

Song information

The lyrics of "In Your Care" deal with the topic of child abuse. CD1 and CD2 of the song were released on two separate weeks, which could explain the steep climb in sales during the second week of its release. CD1 included a remix of album track "Ripped Inside" while CD2 included a remix of "Sleeping Satellite".

Critical reception

In his review of the Great Expectations album, Roch Parisien from AllMusic called the song a "more solid" contender, describing it as "sombre-yet-vibrant".[1]
