Comments on: VIDEO: Corinne Bailey Rae – I’d Do It All Again http://www.juslikemusic.com/video-corinne-bailey-rae/ eclectic blends since 2006 Mon, 23 Jan 2012 07:32:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 By: Tolitahttp://www.juslikemusic.com/video-corinne-bailey-rae/#comment-2466 Tolita Wed, 30 Dec 2009 05:13:35 +0000 http://www.juslikemusic.com/?p=1142#comment-2466 The thing that gets to me is that certain quarters - esp men- who used to dismiss CBR as lightweight are only now regarding her as the credible artist she's always been. It's as if her tragic and widowed status suddenly makes her more 'edgy'. All that's happened is that her former critics are now listening to her with the open mind they didn't have before. For those of us who appreciated her first album she's always had a good deal of substance, raw emotion and heart-on-sleeve lyrics. Fair enough recent events might add another layer to her artistry but she was never bubblegum in the first place. She just wasn't courting the media and self-destructive like Rock-and-roll Amy. It actually gets on my nerves the poor woman's husband had to die before her quality was recognised.<br><br>Shalom, Miss T x The thing that gets to me is that certain quarters – esp men- who used to dismiss CBR as lightweight are only now regarding her as the credible artist she's always been.
