What a soulful performance... gives me chills and fever... so intense and powerful yet subtle... and then so explosive with passion and love and suffering and healing and... love of life... amazing!
Wow, sweet, powerful, soul, spirit, real ....... my god she is all woman, is there no song she doesn't make her own and make obsolete the others, Allison, you are one deep yet light special person.
@hanner014 The chords are pretty typical blues chords, though she embellishes them with varied voicings. F-F7/A-Bb for the 'you're no good' parts, C7-F-C7 for the chorus and Bb7-F7-C7-Bb-Ab for the bridge.
I like to sing Aretha, too, but I'm not this awesome. I sincerely enjoyed this. Thank you so much for sharing it here. I like her version of Cohen's Hallelujah a lot, too. :)
I never really considered Whitney Houston all that soulful only because her voice is so perfect. And though I think she's raised the bar in pitch-perfect singing that everybody on American Idol seems to be trying for, I think they're striving for the wrong thing. Soul, rock and blues have never really been about perfection in pitch and tone. It's more the grittiness, and it's the imperfections that make it the incredible music that it is. This lady is more like Aretha than Whitney I think.
Bluefairyfreak is right - you can't include links in these posts - so, I've added a link to where you can find Allison Crowe CDs is the video description above. Enjoy! thanks ( : Ad
I HEARD ...ANOTHER//"YOU HAVE TO LISTEN TO THIS YOUNG LADY!! OK_IVE BEEN SUCKED IN WITH THAT LINE (HAVENT WE ALL??) SAY 100 TIMES!!_WELL THIS WAS NOT 1O1!! MY DEAR LADY/// YOU ARE FLAT GREAT!! ALSO @BLUEFAIRYFREAK/// IF I FIND THE CD/// A DRINK IS COMING YOUR WAY! ANY FURTHER IMFO WOULD BE APPRECIATED!YOU DON'T OFTEN GET A REAL TREAT SUCH AS THIS/ I THANK YOU FOR MAKING MY DAY BEST OF LUCK, FOR ALL OF US LET NOT THE "INDUSTRY" LET YOU,FALL BETEEEN THE CRACKS! RATHER RAISE YOU UP! ALL MY BEST!
Well am I blessed to have stumbled upon this gorgeous talented young lady, wow I"m speechless I"m wondering why I ever heard of Allison till I saw her do Lisa"s song on the website, the range you have is amazing, you are truly an angel with the voice of one, omgosh I"m like a kid on xmas morning all excited wow you are truly talented your piano your voice wow speechless, now i"m going to turn my grown kids to your music,I ♥♥♥ & if you ever come to Toronto I"ll be there!
I AGREE ROSES!!! Those without SOUL -- regardless of musical knowledge or training are the real mindless ones --sadly trapped in a world of musical DOs and DON'Ts -- seldom venturing outside that constrained world. In fact, it can be argued that they are the real mindless ones when it comes to musical creativity and passion. This performance has it all!
wow this woman has an amazing voice! Very powerful. Great version of one of my favorite songs of all time. I think my favorite performance is by The Commitments.... but this gives them a great run for their money. Really well done :)
Wow. She's good.
