This is Olivia discussing her album Back To Basics. She talks about her 4 new songs from that album, I Need Love Deeper Than A River, I Want To Be Wanted and Not Gonna Be The One. Alot of nice pictures while the songs are playing. Enjoy. :)
Oops I meant to say "I Want To Be Wanted" rather than Wanna. Also to clarify I also meant that I had not head of Brenda Lee's version of the song at the time. I have since. I loved Brenda's music back in the day and especially her CHristmas music. She had an awesome and unique voice.
I loved all 4 of the new songs that were on this CD but I feel like the underdog because everyones favs are usually "I Need Love" or "Not Gonna Be The ONe" but her remake of "I Wanna Be Wanted" Resonated with me. I loved the ballad and the purity of her voice on that song, the emotions the song elicited too. Actually I did not even know of Brenda Lees when I heard it. I thought it was brand new. I would say "NGBTO" is pretty close for me but all 4 were gorgeous songs.
"Not Gonna Be The One" - one of the best songs she's ever sang. DTAR & IWTBW also fit her pretty well. I think this album should have concentrated more on the most recent songs of her career rather than going all the way back. On the negative side, it;s too bad that she let herself get sucked in to the "environmental / GAIA nonsense. Musically I've always had a soft spot for ONJ.
so good looking+ONJ the perfect woman with amazing blue eyes that burn through you like lazers,ONJ you are fantastic,I am not worthy sorry for trash talking you in the eighties and thinking of you as a souless yuppy with bad musical taste,but it was the me generation and I rebelled unfortunatly..
richardhanna....as far as Im aware her father passed away and her diagnosis all came in the same weekend (whilst on vacation with her husband) i hardly think she recorded anything within such a time frame....

thank you, this is GOLD! An artist who can talk about her work without pretensions. It needs to be mastered and archived.

Not Gonna Be The One is a continuation of the ethereal Recovery from the Physical album...

I Need Love seems to be an answer-song to Physical - a post-HIV/AIDS era response, perhaps... or a song of a more mature person...
