Thoughts on Amel Larrieux?

I think she is FAB and I am annoyed she is not bigger.

Here is a vid of her covering D, Faith and Maxwell as well as doing some Groove Theory stuff and killing it.

love love Amel!

"For Real" is my favorite. those high notes at the end are stunning.

How can I stand 2 stay where I am? / Poor butterfly who don't understand.

I've always loved her... I think she's not as big by design...she always mentions liking the low profile and able to have a normal family life...

no, Bravebird is from 2004. Morning is her last album of original material from 2006. (Lovely Standards is a cover album from 2007) As u can see, she gives ppl time to miss her, or to be inspired and put out quality, not quantity. Infinite Possibilities was her solo debut apart from her Groove Theory album

I love Amel! She's not as popular as some, but I like that for some reason. She seems to be more focused on her lyrics than she is on music/beats. Her music could probably be more popular if she'd get the hottest producer just to throw some hot beat behind her lyrics. "Bravebird" has a nice house beat behind it, but I don't believe that song was released.

I have quite a few favorites from her, but here's just a few:

http://www.youtube.com/wa...Sw6NT76n1c - "No One Else"

http://www.youtube.com/wa...NUfNzXhHgs - "Orange Glow"

http://www.youtube.com/wa...kIgghtnDjw - "For Real"

http://www.youtube.com/wa...8BSfoGXhC4 - "Shine"

http://www.youtube.com/wa..._WNLnMLIb0 - "INI"

http://www.youtube.com/wa...aWxcFqqaU0 - "Weary"
