I've found my God, and her name's Macy
I've loved it since the day I bought it, more than a year ago. This album is my favorite album of all time. Macy Gray's lyrics are so deep and moving, she gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it. This album has literally changed my life, she's let me see all the joy in life, and look past the infinate sadness. My favorite track is "A Moment to Myself," where Macy sings joyfully about her new, happy life. Another favorite is "The Letter," an up-beat song about suicide. If you only buy one album in your life time let it be this. However, only buy it if you are one who actually listens to the lyrics, because the beats are just pretty good. "On How Life Is" is a brilliant album, that talks about everything in life (abusive boyfriends [Still], murder [I've Commited Murder], etc. ). It fittingly ends with "The Letter," where she kills herself.


Worth the extra for "Rather Hazy"....
Alternatively, do what I did - buy the regular album, and the "Do Something" single, which also features the track "Rather Hazy". Even though it's the bonus track, RATHER HAZY is the best track on this CD! If you have enough spare cash to pay this much for a CD, I thoroughly recommend paying extra for the bonus track.


I TRY
I don't know what she will come out with next, but if it tops this one, everyone will be in for a big surprise! (sanron6@aol. The whole CD is the bomb! When I first bought the CD for "I Try," which is song #4, I kept listening and the whole entire CD is just amazing! Her style is so different. com).


COME ON WITH IT GIRL
I had to know who is this? What is this song? Sounds like Boy George, Tina Turner, Billie Holiday, Rod Stewart! Who is this? A customer told me, "It's Macy Gray, singing I Try". I was shopping in a mall, heard this fab and sultry voice with the intoxicating beat. I rushed to the closest CD store and purchased this jewel for myself. Little did I know I was in for a treat. This girl knows how to work her sexual lyrics; in Caligula and Sex-o-matic Venus Freak! Whooa,baby! See, I am a late forties woman, the kid stations put sex out on the table "lick the lips below your navel" too crass. But this lady, dresses up her sexual songs that gets the point across in a wordplay that's outta this world. Not only that, "Still" speaks to many women who stay in a bad relationship. She's soooo real. Her first cut, "Why didn't you call me", Yeah baby, I can relate. Her spiritual side boggles my mind. Tellin' God, "I can't wait to meet you. " That should be played on some of the Christian radio stations. And "I Committed Murder" what skillful ideas she has! She's the bomb. I can't wait to see another release. COME ON WITH IT GIRL!.


Fantastic Album
It makes for great chill-out music. There are not many CDs where I like every single song, but this is one. 'Rather Hazy' is a great mellow track for the end. It may only be one extra track, but more Macy is better Macy.
