    it's a travesty and a crime against good music that an artist like oleta adams is as underrated as she is here in the u.s. but overseas is revered. makes me question the sensibilities of americans and before anyone gets their panties in a twist I AM an american, born and bred in chicago. oleta my sweet, as always you hold a special place in my heart with your magnificent voice! you never fail to give me goosebumps! i am a fan now and forever!

    I am 29 now, I remember my mom brought this CD when I was a boy. She work night and I had to stay home by myself and I would listen to "Evolution." I have not heard this song since I realized that I suffered from depression when I was only 10. But this brings back memories, Although me and my mother don't get along, she did "indirectly" introduce me to good music.

    Sometimes we take for granted the gifts and talents that are present among us. And it doesn't resonate until we can no longer enjoy their gifts, that we have had the opportunity to see a side of God that completes the process of living. I'm grateful to have discovered the music of Oleta Adams, she is without a doubt an incredible vocalist. Music that touches the heart and stirs the soul, she is simply amazing!

  • @stanleyballard

    Oleta has never had a major marketing genius behind her like Clive Davis or Tommy Mottola but she has the best voice....powerful, clear and equally phenomenal live (saw her years ago).

    Her Voice is still perfect!!
    She has taken very careful attention to her instrument.
    I first heard her in 1993 - the Evolution album - and she is still just as good today as she was then.
    This lady is going to be around for many many more years, and so will her Golden Voice.
    God Bless her!

    I don't know if the Metropole has great taste, or good luck, or if it's the singers that choose the orchestra. But it's a great match in the cases of both Ms. Adams and Ms. Khan.
