I wish they'd re-release more of her Fame stuff; the stuff of her self-titled 2004 album wasn't enough.

Cool thread!

My mom used to blast "Young Hearts..." when I was little. I thought Candi was the most "beautiful-est" lady I ever did see biggrin

Her voice gets me all chocked up touched



Her voice got the pain and wisdom of a 100 years old woman.

I loved her take on Bobby Womack's Take A Chance On Love.
