Corinne Bailey Rae

Rating:★★★★★
Category:Music
Genre: Jazz
Artist:Corinne Bailey Rae
I'm no jazz fan, but I guess I'm getting old because more and more, I'm gravitating towards bluesy, cool jazz.

Corinne Bailey Rae is now simply one of my favorite artists. Move over Norah Jones. Her debut album is simply amazing. If it wasn't a copy-controlled cd (damn you record companies), I would be listening to it all day on my iPod. But I have no choice but to play it only on my PC while I work.

I just love her song "Like a Star." Sigh.



Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands,
Oh.. I do love you,

Still i wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

You've got this look i can't describe,
You make me feel like I'm alive,
When everything else is a fade,
Without a doubt you're on my side,
Heaven has been away too long,
Can't find the words to write this song,
Oh.,..
Your love,

Still i wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

I have come to understand,
The way it is,
It's not a secret anymore,
'cause we've been through that before,
From tonight I know that you're the only one,
I've been confused and in the dark,
Now I understand,

I wonder why it is,
I don't argue like this,
With anyone but you,
I wonder why it is,
I wont let my guard down,
For anyone but you
We do it all the time,
Blowing out my mind,

Just like a star across my sky,
Just like an angel off the page,
You have appeared to my life,
Feel like I'll never be the same,
Just like a song in my heart,
Just like oil on my hands
