Wow, amazing, Tears for Fears as a backing band, the band that discovered her. Roland and Curt uncovered a gem. Check out Badmans Song by tears for fears, really shows her talent giving a gospel/blues edge to them.
I agree she is one of the best singers I have ever heard and her talent is astounding. When you hear the awful performers who can't sing a note and rely on computers, dancers and sex to sell records it is a crying shame for singers with such gifts.
She is one the baddest and purest R&B song-stylists on the planet. Besides her one minute of fame with the "GET HERE" hit, she is still an undiscovered gem. This live performance gets 10 stars!!!!
@alexalot23 Of course, it's about money and image, reaching the easy groups. I'm just glad to be able to listen to music on Youtube and not having to watch music channels for it ;-)
DID DAVE BARDUHN WRITE THIS SONG? He is my hero.... I first heard this song on a "Genesis" CD... The song begins with "His Eye Is On The Sparrow"... I'm not a Mt. Hood student, but I went to jazz festivals there in high school and fell in love with Barduhns compositions
Fantastic ! What a performance. Olita, you are such talent. How this song evokes feelings is the reason I listen to music. Watch Christina- Hurt. These woman are the finest examples of how music conveys love.
God bless Oleta.
