4.0 out of 5 stars Close your eyes & be carried away, May 13, 2000

R&B isn't my genre of choice. But while recently traveling in Austria, my television viewing was limited to what would *mostly* be in English. My eye was caught first when I saw the video. A visual feast. It wasn't until I'd seen the video several times I really began to listen to this song. Unbelieveable. The typical R&B beat fused with bits of operetta. Awe-inspiring. Listen to the lyrics. With lines such lines as "I came here with my own things, and I can leave the same way" today's all-too materialistic society is challenged. This is a song that you'll be singing to yourself long after you've last heard it.

5.0 out of 5 stars MINDBLOWING..., March 6, 2000

Intoxicating... This has to be the most creative piece of music I have heard yet! The fusion of rap and opera choirs results in an ATOMIC combination.. Who is JAMELIA and why isn't she cutting more Albums?

This song was the highpoint of a long-ago era; the days when what you saw was literally what you got with Jamelia, and you didn't see through the increasingly fake veneer of "not just doing this for paper".

The album from which this came, as a whole was groundbreaking in UK R&B in my opinion. From start to finish I was totally glued to it. Smooth, powerful and creepily expert vocals in a girl so young.

Clearly the standout track though, 'Money' is just too infectious a masterpiece to ignore! If I remember rightly, it did not go to the top of the mainstream charts, which I thought was an utter travesty. I think it was the grounding for her future releases though. Jamelia saw that the authentic, core roots of her music were not going to be the golden ticket that would keep her popular with the guys handing out recording contracts.

It's SUCH a shame that THIS Jamelia didn't return after her career-break(s), instead of the vain chart-chaser we're stuck with now.
