Is she more real because she's "natural" as apposed to being made up with heels and short skirts, dresses and clevage? She has a fan base and audience that likes what she does. She isn't more beautiful just because she wears her hair natural and doesn't wear makeup. The single most important thing that everyone must learn is that anytime you want to make money using your talent and attempting to reach the world it's called BUSINESS. It has nothing to do with who's real or not it's who sales
This woman is SO JAZZY I don't know what to do with her!¡!¡ I really like how she exploits her range in her ad-lib when she says "I would give… …UP…! MANY artists can blow the house down, but it takes real skill to be jazzy!
Amel is the DEFINITION Of Beauty she has everything I want in a Wife The Hair I love Curly hair that is Natural Love the honey skin Love the voice I love everything about her Fellas know what i'm talking about a woman that is just drop dead gorgeous from head to toe it makes your heart flutter and you dont know what to say
@19IndependenVision88 "Amel is the DEFINITION Of Beauty she has everything I want in a Wife The Hair I love Curly hair that is Natural Love the honey skin Love the voice I love everything about her "
Coming from a biracial background, I hate it when guys go for women based on looks alone especially when they want what they don't look like themselves. Are they drop dead gorgeous like Boris Kodjoe, Blair Underwood, Denzel Washington?
@nancydrew5 sorry babydoll my fiance she has no complaints about how I look so if you trying elude to something about the denzel blair underwood and Boris comment.Also I go for how a women is on the inside But damn no need to get all hot under the collar I have a type
If you go for the inside, why did you say Amel is the definition of beauty and everything you want in a wife and you based that on her hair, skin and voice? Seems like you're talking out of both sides of your neck. If Amel looked like say Fantasia would you still think she was someone you'd wife? I embrace all the many different physical traits of black people. I consider myself black, but I don't think anyone type defines beauty or good looks.
Going strong and doing her...she has MAD support over here!!! She makesit known that growing up and maturing can be done in a classy down to earth way!!
Yes! My husband and I have met her and gone to her concerts and she seems to develop a camaraderie of sorts with her most loyal fans. I love her so much! I miss her because she didn't stop into town this year. :(
Damn, I love this song.And Gills & Tails.And No One Else. And this is just from this album,not mentioning all her other albums! Poor bastards who don't listen to REAL music.They don't know what their missing out.
@atkinsgina - I love Amel's music, but obviousy parading around in fishnets work best in this country (or haven't you noticed). Its all about what you want. Personally I think she's happy enough making music for a smaller segment of society that would appreciate "IT" and not "HER". Probably why she's not with a major label. Some people don't need or want all the fame. I admire her for that and wish her well in all that she does.
She lyricizes from her soul and not from her hip. This is not Neo Soul music, because there's nothing new about Soul music. She dares to speak to the heart of many matters through her music, instead of bumping and grinding all the time. That's why her music is not "main stream." Those of us who love her and appreciate her talent should continue to spread the love about her. She is a perfectly pure example that this genre music R&B is yet alive...and kicking1
she is a beautiful woman very natural and she has an exotic loook to her very nude and fresh bare and i love this song hope one day she gets the recognition she deserves a break through!!!!!!!
what a beautiful spirit! Too bad the industry underpromotes this beautiful songbird. she's undeniable & doesn't have 2show all the goodies 2make a buck
Yes, Amel is 2000 times better live. She is such a wonderful spirit. I'm glad God put her on this earth thru the vessels of her mother, Brenda Dixon Gottschild and her father.
I Love this song ,because ahe keeps it so real. As a woman she just wants someone she can trust. She just wants to be secure. I can strongly agree to that.
love and blessings Amel -- your music MOVES my soul!
