The first time I heard her do this song on that Showtime miniseries 'Soul Food,' I knew I would fall in bliss with her. I brought the CD right after that! Love this song...

To say I love this song is an understatement. It's the song I dedicated to the memory of my grandma Vicenta pray

that debut album, i still play. it's a very strong record and
her songs are strong, if at times a bit repetitive and boring.

it's a nice album to listen to all the way through tho, when
i'm working on the computer.

her later albums, i've got them, but i hardly ever listened to
them after the initial spin.
and true love lives on lollipops and crisps

Exactly. I want to dig her, I just grew tired of her shtick. Oddly enough, though I think she is supposed to be inspirational, I found her a bit depressing. Something about her doesn't seem authentic to me, I can't connect her with her messages and that feels sad.

I agree with you. I loved her debut. The rest of them were so hit and miss for me.

After the debut album, I couldn't get into the second because it was missing something that made the first one stand out. But the third album, Testimony Volume 1, was her best album to me. Her latest one....a major disappointment for sure.

That's an understatement. I have skipped through every song on the last cd. Just horrible.

I liked some cuts, but overall alot of it bored me.
