Joan Armatrading

Speaking of breaking the mold and defying the stereotype - Joan Armatrading is AMAZING!!! Although she pre-dates Tracy Chapman, their singing styles seem so similar to me. I guess it's the soulful, yet folksy flavor they bring to their music. Joan's style is hot. Her music is passionate, inspiring, and when she sings about love in this song... well, I wanna give someone some love. Seriously, check out this live video of her and her band:

Demetrie, wow. I just want to say thanks for reacquainting me with a voice that had the power to move and inspire and the lyrical talent to move mountains. I was a Armatrading fan she had a power and strenght in her voice and words rarely seen today.
