This was probably one of my faves from "The Archandroid" album. It was good to hear it live...

Yeah, I'm bored....

Seen this? http://www.kcrw.com/music...elle_monae This is old, but it's still great.

Allow pop ups for this site and click "watch" in the blue box above the album cover.

The best track of the album, wonderfully rendered here.

i don't see her appeal at all

Whenever I mention her to anyone, they have no fucking idea who she is.

Personally, I think she is great, and one of the best live acts I have seen for years.

I've tried

Her stupid manly outfits and ditto hairdon't are very off-putting as well imho

I saw her at a small outdoor concert on a cold, drizzly night a couple months before The ArchAndroid came out - and she blew everyone's socks off. Her energy was amazing (especially given the conditions).

Here's a review - sounds like Dewrede was in the audience that night...

OK i just checked these 3 live performances

and while i gotta admit she's a good and energetic performer ,

her voice and music don't do anything for me whatsoever

I don't get the hype at all

Love this song and the entire CD. I want to see her live again in a smaller venue than MSG.

I love her and she has the WHOLE package. Great performer, GREAT musc, good songwriter, lovely to look at and a class act

Its REFRESHING to see a woman that doesnt want to sale sex or a sexy image to sale a record and relies on her talent....

Unfornately Janelle is very underrated and hardly anyone knows her.... such a ashame.

Nice.

I seen her at Koko in London, which was only her 2nd UK show, it was great to see her in a small place, one of the best shows I have ever attended, and that's saying something.

I then seen her twice more in slightly bigger venues and those confirmed to me that the first one was no fluke. I can't wait till she plays on these shores again.

A couple of her TV broadcast festival shows are doing the rounds on a torrent site. They are great and should not be missed.
