ok... I love Macy Gray....but
I was in the record store the other day and saw her new album was out, and the sticker said "includes Walk this Way", which I love. I just put it on, and I'm like... I know this song!

I look at the album - it's "The Very Best of Macy Gray".

She has two albums. I own them both. Isn't a greatest hits album for an artist with two albums a bit presumptuous?

That said, I like the album. I've seen her twice in concert - once in a very small club for a special event and again when she opened for Bowie this year and we sat in the front row - she flirted shamelessly with my boyfriend. She's awesome. But damn, woman, hold off on the Greatest Hits until you have more than 2.

2. heheh
I like it. But then, I'd like almost anything she does. I just think she's awesome. A big ol' hippie stoner chick with a Billie Holiday voice - what's not to love?

4. macy gray is about the ONLY
black female singer i don't like.

with that said though, i can see where some would find her appealing. but i just find her annoying. that voice, ugh, that voice :freak:

now if you want the REALLY good stuff, listen to kelly price. ain't nuthin' better on a quiet night.
