New Artist: Heather Headley

I just bought a new CD (It was on sale--what can I say, I'm cheap!), but I must tell you I was BLOWN AWAY! I saw Heather Headley on the CBS Morning Show a few months ago singing "He Is" and I must tell you the entire CD is the BOMB! I'm not a huge music buff (I probably buy about 4-5 CDs a year and they are usually gospel), but I'm telling you, you need to get this CD.

Heather Headley recently won a Tony for her Broadway performance in AIDA and played Nala (sp??) in the Lion King on Broadway as well..

That's the end of my public service annoucement! Hope everyone had a blessed Christmas!

Thanks SOROR!! I will use my $5 MILLION

TAR-ZHAY gift card to buy it. I finally heard HE IS on Sunday -- only thing I ever hear on the radio is "I'm sooooooo sick of hearing this song . . .

"

Heather Headley's CD is wonderful. I also have the soundtrack from Aida and she is awesome on it, too.

I just saw Aida in NY last month but HH wasn't playing the lead anymore. It is now Simone (the daughter of Nina Simone). She is in the midst of recording a CD and if her performance in Aida is any indication it will be a must have, also.

Heather Headley was just on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno and was excellent.

This is THE MOST PHENOMENAL SONG that I have heard in a looooooooooong time. I can hear this song over and over and over and over. I love the different SOUNDS in the song.

I pictured the video for this song the other day. I need to write her and tell her how to do it and maybe I can be the female lead in the video because shoot I have been in the position before.

"I wish I wasn't in love with you so you couldn't hurt me. . . **waving hand in air with lighter lit**

Oh and 4 Words From Heartbreak -- YES LAWD.

This CD is soooooooooo underrated. Dayum that Ashanti. Ashanti has no piano playing on her CD. There is no UMPH to her CD like Heather has.

Yes I admit, I am riding Heather's jock right now.

This is the ONLY CD I have listened to lately.

Just wanted to add my $.02....

my cousin recommended this CD to me and I was hesitant at first because she also loved Moulin Rouge (a movie I can't seem to get past the first 15 minutes...)..anyway she popped the cd in and over a couple of brews I fell in love with this cd - I caught it on sale and it has been in constant rotation since!

I couldn't even watch the AMA's and the thought of Ashanti actually getting a grammy while TRUE artists like Heather are overlooked...makes me mad

!

What a tangent....great CD - think of it like this ...did you get Maxwell's cd when it first came out at $7.99 or did you wait and have to pay a whole $11.99?? Get on board and join the chorus...

I bought the Maxwell CD (Urban Hang Suite), when it first came out at $7.99. I guess you could say I've been his biggest fan from the very beginning. There is none greater in my opinion.
