@warriorofwrestling What genre is Millie Small?? Well... there are hints of Coltrane and even some Rachmaninov ...I would say it's definitely a crossover of some sort.
In 1965, I lived in a group apartment. One of the other guys had (Little) Millie Small's album that featured "My Boy Lollipop." This song was on the album. When I heard it, I just played it over and over, nearly making the other roomies insane. Today's the first time I've heard this since. My God. What wonderful memories from a tremendous and ageless voice. Thanks, Millie. And thanks to you WillerRemyMa. Allen
The World was Cheated-Part1: I never saw Millie perform until recently when I wondered if the woman singing that great old catchy hit My Boy Lollipop could be as cute as her voice. I was shocked to find that she isnt just cute but absolutely adorable and overflowing with charisma and talent. I cant think of any recording star who flirted with the camera so often and effectively. Her expressions are priceless
The World was Cheated - Part2: Her dazzling smile, unique dancing, and her songs bring joy to your heart. And that baby voice makes you melt. An even bigger surprise is how great her other songs are.. All of them should have been big hits. The world was cheated out of hearing these jewels and Millie was cheated out of getting the recognition she deserved. Some stupid record distributor or some other powerful jerk must have blocked this from happening. I cant think of any other reason.
Johlufc and Ockendite100 how can u tell me if my nan knows her? check up her life story if u dont believe it. and Johlufc for your information if im an idiot u must be a retard because im positive that all i said is true and not bullshit you peice of crap.
Where did you get the stuff about Millie being dead? She is supposed to have recorded 6 new tracks recently according to her producer. Difficult to do if you're dead.

My GrandMother Knows Millie Smalls they went to the same school together in Clarrendon in Jamaica. But they Banned Millie from Jamaica because she said some really nasty stuff about Jamaica which were'nt true. So she went to live in France and died really sadly there unfortunatly.
None of the above is true. Millie is still alive and living in London. Not banned from Jamaica. Millie had several local (Jamaican) hits and at least 3 in UK charts. Recorded around 5 albums. Currently recording new album apparently.
I saw Millie Small live at a Murray the K show when i was about 9 years old back in Brooklyn, NY, she was a little fireball, very entertaining. It's nice to see her remembered by others.
Definitely not bubblegum. Definitely excellent.

@pinkmoonmist Well, yes, but My Boy Lollipop is generally reckoned to be the first big-time ska hit, so I guess the two are pretty intertwined.

I recall seeing Millie at the Brooklyn Fox Theater in 64 or 65. I think the Dixie Cups were there that day.
She had a great stage presence and an adorable childlike smile.
Come to NY Mille !
