5.0 out of 5 stars Why Did R&B Radio and Music Fans Ignore This Album?, October 27, 2003

I am so puzzled as to why Chante Moore is not a big superstar? Precious, was one of the best R&B albums of the 90s. Its simple, but beautiful take on love reminded me of the great/late Minnie Riperton. But Chante doesn't try to re-do Minnie (no one can), she just tries to show us how love is something mentally, physically, sexually, and spiritually in her own special way. The girl touched me with her music, words,and vocals. Chante needs to return to her roots, because her last cd "Exposed" left me feeling cold. But at least, I have "Precious" to keep me warm. My favorite songs are the jazzy 'Sexy Thang', the romantic duet 'Candlelight & U', the simple 'Precious' and the beautiful 'Finding My Way Back To You'. If you are not used to jazz-pop-opera-r&b being blended together, you might want to avoid this album. But you will be making a SERIOUS mistake if you did. This album may take a while before it hits you, but it will.

4.0 out of 5 stars A favorite, 8 years and counting..., June 7, 2000

I can honestly say that I enjoy each track on this CD. Chante has such a sweet voice and it is well suited to this collection of songs about love and romance. The lyrics are beautiful -- "Look at me, but not with your eyes, touch me with more than your hands." (From Listen to My Song). This woman is singing about unabashed emotion and love without boundaries. This CD delves into the way you immerse yourself in another person before you become bitter and jaded.

My favorites are the title track "Precious" (This song makes me want to learn French!), "Sexy thing" and "It's Alright." I really like "Candlelight and You" a sexy romp of a duet with Keith Washington. This CD is a classic.

This CD is timeless. I can't remember too many CDs where I NEVER skip over a song. Every one is a jewel to be cherished. I can't sang ( LAWD knows I wish I could!) but that doesn't stop me from bumping this with my windows up! So much truth for people suffering from that thang called "leftover love" in her song "AS IF WE NEVER MET." So much reality in "WHO DO I TURN TO." And put on something sexy, let the incense hang in the air as the Victoria Secret starts to fall (For the women, for the men, just get ready to unravel and savor her secrets) on the sulty and moving remix of "LOVE'S TAKEN OVER." (Put that one on REPEAT and let it take you through the night -- LAWD HAF MERCY!)
