She is indeed one of the best singers the UK can boast about.
Thank you, my faith is restored. Been playing her on repeat tonight.
I'd say her most famous song must surely be "My One Temptation."
My One Temptation - her first and biggest hit

Her versions of 'Summertime' and 'I Put A Spell on You' with David Gilmore/Jools Holland are amazing.
I think Mica paris, Beverley Knight, Annie Lennox, Alison Moyet & Dina Carrol are amongst the best female soul voices this country has produced. They all knock spots off more commercially acceptable acts such as Leona, Alexandra, Winehouse etc.
Love "like dreamers do" and "never knew love like this before":cool:
Really?? I'm super impressed with Born Again - as soon as I heard it (which was on Saturday!)
She never did anything nearly as real as that afterwards that I can remember hearing.
A horrifically bland cover of 'Secret Lovers' with Alex O'Neal was where she lost me completely.
Very talented lady though.
*whispers* that was her 2nd album "Contribution"
I disagree about the neo soul comment - Erykah Badu has released 5 brilliant albums since 1997's "Baduizm"....Lina has had hardly any success but I adore her 3 albums, also Jill Scott
