Numero001 Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 lol knew man dem will be checkin NY.. Shes loking woodableshez vocally pie TBH.. Most rnb up and coming girls form over here sound like her.. Alex setS the levels in the studio. Numero are u serious about Gemma fox?. Shes average IMO. maybe the grime songs she as featured on in recent times did her no justice for me. I see what you are saying about notes and what not. You think those buying amy winehouse album have a clue about notes?I think the fact amy is a crackhead gives her music/image the X factor. I have seen many Amy knock offs recently. But Alex as got it going on. She might not pull it off like Amy for the fact that she comes from up north ( I HEARD)Try find one tune called 'Voicemail' she sounds good on that. I think she has a very nice tone, better tone than Alex, but I'll admit thats most prob coz I think Alex is faking it. Her image doesnt cut it either. Amy looks on the brink of a breakdown and a druggie and guess what? She is lol sp her songs are believable, whereas Alex looks healthy. she should just chat about man cheating on her, at worst.She'd most prob be much better on record. I wont write her off 'cause she does sound good, just fake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Numero001 Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 NY don't try pass that tune off as her own, i've heard her say a couple times on radio shows n that that it is a Tanya Stevens coverI only meant to new ears that may hear on radio. She couldnt claim it, but if she doesnt say nothing then it will be a Blondie 'Tide Is High" scenario where people dont know John Holt (I think) sung the original.I'll up in a bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get mixed up between him and Alton Ellis, but it is him. And the point I was making was that it wasnt the originalYeah, it was him.I see your point about people thinking a cover is an original song by the artist covering it, but at the same time I think it can benefit the original artists, cause people will take the time to find out who made the original.Like the "Tide Is High" example you said, if Blondie hadn't covered it, I'd have probably never heard the Paragons version. I found out about that through hearing the Blondie one first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Turnover Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 Yeah I rate Alex Mills. I like the odd Grime bits she has done. I fancy her [savant] YES FANCY[/savant]+I see Numero's point. +I don't (I do, obviously) get why everyone is jumping on this "mature/contemporary" UK sound. Not everyone is gonna get through.+I have always wanted NY... ALWAYS!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jo Dark Posted June 16, 2008 Report Share Posted June 16, 2008 I haven't heard NY sing before but that just reminded me of girls at secondary school who were quick to get up because they thought they could sing.I thought Alex sounded good but I'm a bit bored of this sound atm. I can't help but think of Amy whenever I hear these performers/ songs. Also, that particular song sounded too 'niche' to be mainstream. Perhaps if she has another song which has a bit of a pop sound she could get somewhere, and even then, it wouldn't be Amy levels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
