Most Underrated Albums of the '00s
A wonderful introduction and first glimpse of this remarkable young singer/storyteller whose attention to timing and nuance was evident in every song on this album even at age nine. Now, five years later, she's working on her fifth studio album, her third music special for PBS, and has performed on tour, on television, and in special events both nationally and internationally. And she just…keeps…getting…better.
The many great performances here led reviewer Jason Dowd to say, "This nine-year-old girl sings like a bird, with perfect harmony, passion, and heart."
Recorded when Jackie was only 9 years old, only 1,000 copies were produced, and now command over $1,000 each on the collector's market, and over $3,000 with an autograph. At that time, the world had not gotten to hear her fully, and she has since blossomed into the finest new singing voice of the 21st Century, and even broke Michael Jackson's record as the youngest artist in US chart history to have a Top 2 and Platinum CD [Dream With Me].
Copies of this routinely go for $2000-3000. Signed versions even more. This is a collectible of the first order.
Number one album around the world except the USA
This album just blows you away - awesome
Love all his albums
One of his best
This is my favorite Bjork album of the 2000's
Just brilliant album. I still don't understand why it wasn't a hit in sales
Best album of 2008. Has mainstream hits like My Life, Dope Boys and Camera Phone. Features artists like Nas, Keisha Cole, Lil Wayne and Ludacris!
Criminally underrated and overlooked album. 'Brave' is very beautiful track
Not her best one but at least it includes some really great tracks - 'Miles Away', 'Heartbeat', 'Dance 2night'...
Decent Electro Pop music from Shakira
Their 4th studio album was great as usual. Too bad sales didn't prove it
I can't understand how this album only have 3 stars. I CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY!
