Not many powerful singers like Jennifer around [[on the recording scene) these days.
Lots of "can't sing for toffee but will look great in the video" gals about though.
Jessica Sanchez could sing, probably why she never won Idol !!

Jennifer should be ashamed of herself. Forcing that little girl to commit vocal suicide! LOL!!!!

Thanx for posting Kamasu_Jr. I've never heard that track before but the Maurice White/Emotions/Jennifer combination was a match made in heaven, even though I read that Maurice went through hell working with the temperamental songstress. I remember one of her Best ofs included the unreleased "Someday".

You are welcome, Glencro. "Heartstrings" was the B-side of I Am Love. I have always liked it.
Why it was left off of Feel My Soul is a mystery.
