At the ARIA Music Awards of 1995 Sharam was nominated in eight categories , losing to Tina Arena and Silverchair , but winning ARIA Award for Best Cover Art for the album with Dominic O'Brien . The album spawned two more Top 40 singles , " Be Firm " ( No . 25 in June ) and " Lay Down ( Candles in the Rain ) " ( a cover of Melanie Safka 's song , which reached No . 36 in November ) . Her fourth single , " Is It OK If I Call You Mine ? " , a cover written by Paul McCrane for the film '' Fame '' , was released in February 1996 but peaked outside the top 100 . After several subsequent sell-out national tours , Sharam disappeared from the Australian mainstream music scene moving to Los Angeles for several years .
