The 1st version she sang of abc is a gospel version or her preferred way of singing. The 2nd version is a more commercial way of singing, and it crosses over to different ethnic boarders and listeners. That's the underlining meaning to what Neyo was trying to say. Keeping it simple means more because it will appeal to different groups of people. Subsequently, she will sell more records and gain acceptance across the board!
For example, listen to Blame it on me live, if you listen closely she sounds like a contemporary rock artist (especially when she sings the bridge)! Regardless, she sounds great singing either way!
Hey! Why are u marking me negatively. I bought both her albums. Spent my money as a result. I can have an opinion. I am a fan, I like both albums, I think her voice has grown on this album. Hell, I just like the new album more. Hmph!
Thank god for Neyo!!! This is what I have been saying about Chrisette since she came out. I said she tries to hard I can't hear her voice. I feel like on Ephiphany it is the first time I was able to really just LISTEN to HER, her REAL voice. Not an imitation of Ms. Billie Holiday. I am loving the new Chrisette!!!!!!
i love and miss the different colors and styles that she brought in her first album. I love the new album no doubt... its in the car right now, but i kind of miss the eclectic mix. i do agree that there is a correct place for the runs and riffs but i heard every bit of her voice in her first album...
Yo - this girl continues to amaze me. She can do so much with her voice. Her riffs aren't really shown in her songs because she adds so much emotion into it. When she does add a run, it sounds bangin' because it's coming from the heart. Continue to do what you do Chrisette. You got so many fans that are here to support you. You're simply amazing!
Oh my God she is soooo great! I just went to the concert with her Anthony and musiq she is so great c'mon america wake up to this girl, hot i tell ya and anthony Hamilton
wow....i didnt know this was song penned by neyo..thats probably why it sounds better than her other stuff. She can sing, but i agree with an earlier comment, that she gets boring at times, and with what she and Neyo said too: she gets carried away with the damn jazz riffs. Now that i have heard her sing the alphabet like that i think she may be a little crazy, which is hot...in a strange way! Neyo really can write some sings from a female perspective..hmmm
I absolutely love her humility...she's so soft to speak and quick to hear...she draws u in her conversations and u learn from them while she's learning...I luv it!
Mz.Toya luvin it ya dig well put!

That makes sense, putting the riffs at the end to make it like a punctuation or exclamation mark...drive the emotion/idea home
"light bulb" musical genius's :)

Ne-Yo is a lyric GENUS and everyone needs to notice that. Also Chrisette has the most mind blowing voice there ever was.

I was SO looking forward to Ne yo working with Michael Jackson...I had a feeling it would've been a classic album.
Ne yo had THE HUNGER to work with him and that's when the inner genius thrives

For all you singers who love to run and riff that didn't catch what was said at 1:44 - 2:21
And even for those who did catch it, watch it again!
