JESSIE J- I HAVE NOTHING she sung her heart out and I loved every minute of it!!


CHARICE- RUN TO YOU there are only a few great voices that are good enough to do a tribute and this girl is one of them!..Amazing!

JESSIE J performed an acoustic cover of Rihanna's huge single "We found Love" on BBC Radio 1 Live Louge. Jessie reinvents the song and gives it her signature style - complete with vocal acrobatics and a mix of rhythms and tempos. Love it!!

We will always love you WHITNEY HOUSTON (1963-2012)

Listening to WHITNEY HOUSTON's "I Will Always Love you" (a Dolly Parton original) makes me cry like a baby and I don't care who knows it. It's not just the song, but the sound of her great voice. Yesterday, that voice died.


She maybe physically gone, but her voice, her music, her talent will remain in our ears, eyes, and memories. Rest in Peace Ms. Houston.
