It sounds good so far, I've only got through part of it so far. Man, I don't even know My Body and Soul existed lol, I'll have to check it out. I only knew two songs off of "The Soul Sessions", which I quite enjoyed.

See...that's where we disagree. I think it's absolutely cringeworthy. I'm not a fan of Mary J. Blige, anyway. Remember "911" (w/ Wyclef Jean)? Ugh! :P My neighbours upstairs used to bombarb me with that song. Glad they moved...


...but then, what do you care. ;D ;)

I agree with you on this one, Henk.  U2/Bono do just fine without anyone's help.  However, I am not totally against MJB...I liked some of the stuff on her 411 album and I love "Be Without You."  However, I am glad your neighbors moved so you aren't assaulted with 911 all the time.

Hope your weekend got off to a great start.  :)

That's alright,not everyone has good taste!
Kidding,Henk :D ;D

I love Mary,she's my diva of choice,she just makes every song special imo. With U2 she sings that song with as much passion as if it was her own and brings a little soul to an already great tune.
