such a beautiful photo

gorgeous - i love her signature swoop-bang over one eye too

this chopped & screwed aaliyah album is incredibly bizarre, interesting, beautiful & heartbreaking -- i still listen to it from time to time

by album i mean mix

As I said on the thread over there -- my one fervent wish, beyond sympathy for all the bereaved, is that there be no horribly maudlin tribute records. "I'll Be Missing You" or "Candle in The Wind '97" were more than enough.

yeah the jay z remix of "i miss you" and the video w/ all her friends and the DMX speech at the start kinda bucked this trend. beautiful song and a sweet tribute

did aaliyah have like a lazy eye r smthng

if she did she'd be rolling it at you right now

idk the hair sweep, the sunglasses

it was a mystique thing iirc

to think that lazy eye could have been used to promote HIV awareness

o_O

o_\ morelike

ha

speaking of o_O & o_\, the contrast between this thread & the "lol lisa lopez died" one is striking

did aaliyah have an alex chilton collab or

did aaliyah have like a lazy eye r smthng

that was gabrielle

i'm sure if she were still alive the illuminati puppet police would be after her for that hair sweep

idk lex, google aaliyah and lazy eye

"come over" came on on the radio today ^_^

She would've been 32yo today. Damn, I miss that face.

CHOOSEY LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVER

the amount of times per week that i end up listening to that song at 4 am should prob embarrass me

not embarrassing, completely natural

i think her vocals on this song are my fav by her, at least the first half of the song

Her "Choosy Lover" just makes me want to listen to the original, whereas she makes "At Your Best" her own.

looks like they recently added more videos to the official aaliyah vevo account \(^o^)/

THANK YOU BASED MARKERS

lack of hq aaliyah videos on youtube is a crime

I Care 4 U might be one of my favourite songs committed to record. Waltz time! That piano trill! Her vocal performance! Sigh.

You may have a wait there. The Red Album and One in a Million have been out of print in the US for years.

the red album has been out of print? wtf

since at least 2005, if not earlier.

wtf

No, it doesn't make sense.

That's Blackground for you. *shrugs*

...my head hurts.

For the past 3 weeks I have been walking around singing "We Need A Resolution" to myself. I was actually hanging out w this dude I met in Portland and at one point mostly-jokingly said to him "btw I have this bad habit of just spontaneously singing Aaliyah songs at any given moment so just heads up" and then like not 5 min later I was opening a pizza to put in the oven and totally w/o realizing it got all "whass yo' prooooblem / let's resolve" under my breath.

hahaha
