m.By Mark Edward Nero, About.Puts most other contemporary music to shame.It's a wonder why Amel Larrieux hasn't been a more of a commercial success in the United States.This is a song that has almost no weaknesses.Larrieux's voice is strong and emotive, but at the same time has an underlying tenderness that conveys more than a touch of sorrow.Also, the lyrics are sophisticated, but still accessible enough that listeners of all ages can appreciate them.Van Hunt: On the Jungle FloorJavier: Left of CenterSuggested ReadingGuide Profile: Amel LarrieuxAskMen. |
