Well after listening to this album for a couple of months now I was already totally sold...having heard her live...well that's a different ball game (and in the good sense) the girl rocked my socks off!
Its been a while since I've been to a gig where I am overwhelmed by how good someone can get it.
Her style....bang on
Her band....cool as fuck
Her hair....do I need to even comment
Her voice.....gave me shivers.
Not only did she bang out her album as if she'd been doing it for years she also covered my number 1 of all time 'Smile' originally performed by Nat King Cole...now this song admittedly has a very special place in my heart and so I love it for that alone. But, Janelle managed to pull it out of the bag so much that I turned to a friend and made a big claim....'She sung it better than the man himself'. And you know what, I don't regret saying it. She blew me away. Never have I heard someone hit top C in the same voice she uses for bottom C!
So my conclusion, she's a freak of nature, yet again, America have exported the creme de la creme of all artists, and in a way I'm gutted. Why aren't we doing this, Simon cowell, why haven't you produced such talent on xfactor? (Note the sarcasm)
Anyway that's enough of me banging on about Miss Janelle.
Listen here and see for yourself
And you must must must, see her live!
Peace and love
