How did I forget about this track??? I'm in friggin' Ross the other day looking for bullshit & this came on & I was like, "DAMN! India got new shit out?? What is this??"

Completely forgot about it. Did I not listen to Acoustic Soul in full? How could I forget about such a good song? Had me toe tappin' like an old bitch

Shit is cool

Now I'm revisiting the whole album. Her voice is like fucking silk. She could sing the phone book & I'd listen

i had the same thing with India's Acoustic Soul a few weeks ago
when a friend of mine was playing a song from that album in her
car and i said "wow, her new song sounds great"

to which my friend said "no you idiot, this is from YOUR album,
that you gave me a copy of like, what 3 years ago?"

I'm not the only one!

Which song was it?


I think I might have gotten stuck on "Ready For Love" - that puts me in a trance, I can have that on repeat forever

It was "Complicated Melody". It was that first line that immediately
got me

"if he were a color, he'd be deep dark forest green"



I've been listening to the album a lot since then. There is just so
much good stuff on there (it's a l-o-n-g album) that i can see why
we'd forgotten the odd song or two.

listening to "I See God in You" right now

SWEET "Always In My Head" is gettin' at me too

I have this CD and don't know it very well. I enjoy it when my friend Pearl spins this album though.

Someone knows their India Arie

CalhounSq said:

are you serious?

see this is what i mean



did i mix the two tracklists up whilst i burnt them to cd?

cuz i thought The Truth was on Voyage to India too but its
on my Acoustic Soul disc (i always burn cdr for my car and
leave the originals at home).

CalhounSq said:

Yes I do

I just broke this album out after seeing her fine self in the opening act of the Stuporbowl. Her 2nd album gets me as well.

She just makes me want to hug her with that voice and intention, just beauty within beauty within beauty.

DAMMIT, that's what I get for not watching the friggin' superbowl

What did she sing??

CalhounSq said:

She was a part of a Stevie Wonder medley with John Legend and Joss Stone. It was average except for Stevie but I'd never seen her before (other than the album covers).
