- Worth all the money~!
Vanessa's cd single 'Pretty Baby' is so beautiful. The lyrics may seem just a LITTLE weird sometimes, but the music is so amazing! My two favorite songs on Vanessa's "Be Not Nobody" album are "Twight" and "A Thousand Miles". I WAS SO GLAD TO HAVE THEM ON THERE ALSO! Twilight is one of the most beautiful songs i've ever heard from anyone! And A Thousand Miles has such skillful piano in it-it's the reason why i play piano now! This cd is definetally worth your money. I promise you wont be dissapointed at all. RJAN (Bataan, Philippines) - December 01, 2010
- Vanessa's only entry to her Hall of Shame
Listening to this song and comparing to Vanessa's more superb songs, this one gets lost in the glow of the others.
The lyrics are somehow dorky and the arrangement of the Single Version is too formulaic that one would suspect that this song was only concocted to add a more pop-oriented song to her debut.
The original album version is more listenable though, with its more stripped-down, almost acoustic arrangement.

- Although this is my favorite song from Vanessa...
...It is also, ironically, the reason why I gave her album 4-1/2 stars instead of 5. Listen to the lyrics of the chorus: "Pretty baby/Don't you leave me/I have been saving smiles for you"? Wha? Ah well, the melody and the rest of the lyrics are good enough for people not to care. |
