    One of the best underrated singers of this time. Powerfully magnificent, technically supreme, and the greatest storyteller to grace a stage. She's the epitome of a great singer.

      It is riveting and grips my soul in a way I have never felt. This song made the scene in episode 8. The spellbinding orgasm as Ruby comes out of her skin in every facet....

    The way she says “I want you, I’m yours right now” is like a challenge. It’s not submissive at all. She’s like, powerful in her love and desire and how intensely she feels about this person it’s like “can you handle my love” just-gah. Amazing performance.

    Love her version of this tune! Besides the original I can't think of anyone who did this better. She's literally Spellbinding!! Screamin Jay Hawkins was famous for his cover of this but phew.. Alice takes it to a whole other level!

      @@keishamason8587 She's incredible. The three times I've seen her I've been blown away each time. Hope her star keeps rising cause she's easily one of the best singer's out there today.
