this is like my favorite song right now
Harlepolis hipped me to this album...
also, Keith Murray sampled this for "Candy Bar"

I have been listening to this song
all day long

anybody else like?

I like!!

"I need somebody" is my fav track, and "Lost in the stars" is also gorgeous

I been on this Patti Austin
kick for the past few days

once I play "Havana Candy"
I get stuck on it for hours

I never cared for that song but the whole album is a REAL gem(esp the opening track).

She & Maze are what I always play every afternoon while I'm @ work Child, it gets no better than that

Isaac Hayes must've been proud

You both should get this album. I laugh so hard eveytime i hear her impersonation of Michael Jackson,
Cher, Jennifer Holliday, Anita Baker and Michael McDonald.

WORD?

And all this time I've been trying to remember where that song's from

Harlepolis said:

I just re-read your first post
you don't CARE for the title track?

OMG it's so fierce!!!

DirtyChris said:

Maybe it'll grow in me(which I know it will), but its abit too,,umm,,,,,cartoonish, shall we say

Harlepolis said:

yeah it is very animated

what caught my ear was
"she looks like a movie star
like a chocolate candy bar"

Keith Murray sampled that before...
one of my favorite beats btw

Ok now I LOVE it..



Damn, its been aaaaages since I gave Keif Murray a nod

Harlepolis said:

That song sorta pissed me off
because it was already a hit
for Canadian rap group
The Rascalz

"Movie Star" (directed by Kevin De Freitas)

I remember about 5 years ago there was a Soundclick page that posted a bunch of original samples and I downloaded every one and I had them on a MiniDisc!

Patti's "Havana Candy" was on there and I listened to it a lot at the time

Cinnie said:

when I did a search for Keith's
on the day I posted this thread

that video came up as well
and I was like

so The Rascalz did it first eh?

you know how unoriginal
the game is post-1999
(it actually got unoriginal before 1999
but it seems the new millenium brought on
a whole bunch of "nothing" musically)

Oh Havana Candy...best known for the title track and the hit song,
"We're in Love"....my favorite.
