Joss Stone is the pwn!

Just got addicted to this girl..

I remember when her music first hit the UK before I left in November 2003.

Her song was played SO often on the radio but it was just cool as hell. I think they were playing Fell in Love with a Boy back then.

She was so young but just blew everyone away with her husky voice and unique jass-esque style of singing.

She manages to sing with such clarity and emotion too, quite amazing for her age, and she's HOT! She shows music really still can have soul.

Miao!!

At the age of 14, she auditioned for a popular BBC show, Star for a Night after that she kinda took things with a run and she's now a superstar.

2003 was the time of super cheese pop and Joss was a welcome break from Britney and her clones.

Right now I'm digging Right to be Wrong and You Had Me..

Her album sounds so fresh too because a lot of it was recorded in real time with the band in a studio, very few songs are actually done like that now, they are played seperately and mixed together after, very little programming on this album.

Anyway better hit the sack ;)

    She won last year's Brits for Best Urban Singer. I mean what? HMV and Virgin are having sales here in UK selling her previous CDs for 4 quids. Is she known in Malaysia? Haven't been back for almost a year.

    You probably classify Linkin Park or something as music, so there you go ;)

    She has a nice voice, I agree. I hadn't realised that she's only 18 until now. Wow.

    for someone with literally zilch life experience she sure sings with loads of "soul". previously they had manufactured pop. I suppose they now have manufactured soul. I have all her albums. I like the songs "Spoiled" and "Understand". ooh "Don't you wanna ride" is getting loads of airplay in sg and that's cool too. but she's nowhere as cool as my fave current chick, Alicia Keys.
