Jill Scott, "Beautifully Human" -- a superb album worth the wait

I listened to this all the way through over the last few days and I doubt Jill could have delivered a better record. It is nearly flawless. If only every artist who takes an extended hiatus could produce such a quality album!

What do you think?

I keep going back & forth w/ the following earbugs:

"la la la laaaaa
la la
it takes more than diamonds to woo me"



"talk to me
break it down
spell it out
spell it out for me"



"what you do is crazy baby
not like you belong in an asylum crazy baby
like the sun in the mornin'
and the moon at night
like the rain fallin' from the sky
like the trees growin' from the ground
I'm astounded baby
by your love for me
& your touchin' me
& your trustin' me
like you do
woo woo
woo woo
woo woo
woo woo"



This thing hasn't left my player since I bought it music
heart prince I never met you, but I LOVE you & I will forever!! Thank you for being YOU - my little Princey, the best to EVER do it prince heart

I am so feeling you on this. 'Not Like Crazy' just sounds like sex to me right now. I love that sound.

That song is THE one. the lil jazzy breakdown is excellent. Jill has put out by far the best CD of 2004. Stamp it. (sorry Musicology)
