People who love real music know where to find it, most people are too dumb to realize something real and powerful and can't stand to feel things - they'd rather listen to popcrap. Allison is nothing less than extraordinary. Thanks for posting this video, I had never seen it before.
I simply don't understand why she hasen't had more success. She's covered country, folk, and some of her own very unique material which is fabulous. I have two of her albums - Miss Fortune and The Duel. Listen to "Let Go" and the dark title track "The Duel" both written from the soul.
@scotsguy422 I let two co-workers of mine a few years ago listen to her stuff. They both said the same thing : she's too negative. Daisy123M states another reason why too. Her and her sister should be top of the pops, me thinks.
@CTC1965 I think that's part of it. But negative lyrics aren't always a deal breaker. Can you think of a happy Eagles song? Fleetwood Mac's Rumours was also pretty negative. A lot of Neil Young too. But those artists all have uplifting beats so if you don't examine the words, you think it's a good time song. You've heard her "Light of a Clear Blue Morning", right? Sad might be more accurate characterization. But I'm a sucker for sad songs, so I think Allison's awesome...
I think that she won't put herslef in a bubble to make crappy, canned pop music. The folks who are true to their art are the ones you never hear on the radio. It amazes me how anyone would pay to listen to Brittany Spears who doesn't have that great of a voice. I don't like Madonna either.
So how come that formula works for Beyonce and Shania but not Allison? Allison is EASILY more talented than the two of them put together (and CERTAINLY beautiful)..... So why isn't Allison one of the biggest music stars in the biz? I just don't get it.
Brilliant from a brilliant album, thanks for the great video. Just ace.

I don't get it.
Talent + Good looks = success. Right?
So how come that formula works for Beyonce and Shania but not Allison? Allison is EASILY more talented than the two of them put together (and CERTAINLY beautiful)..... So why isn't Allison one of the biggest music stars in the biz? I just don't get it.
