The US campaign to get Aaliyah to No.1 on iTunes has changed.
Instead of 'One In A Million', now the song that the fans will puchase on August 25th will be 'Try Again'

Aaliyah was an angel who taught us all how to live right. For the world, she made it better by making better music, she made less violence, and we all still keep her legacy alive. Team Aaliyah will forever remember Aaliyah aka Babygirl

It's crazy that its been 10 years her music was so ahead of its time, she was a talented & innovative woman. I guess the 10 years seems so short because everyone plays her albums and watches her videos to keep her legacy alive. R.I.P. Aaliyah - we miss you.

This is so true!Most of her videos were uploaded on VEVO months ago and they already have SOOO many views and comments.

The problem is some of them VEVO vids look really badly dated, especially Are You That Somebody last time I looked.

Indeed!And 'Are You That Somebody' looks horrible (too dark) but it's not the worst.Some of her videos actually have the logo of the network on the screen And the volume is a nightmare.
Anyway, I could watch them on Dailymotion but I prefer YouTube for the comments.Aaliyah's Fanclub has a decent YouTube channel but they don't have all the videos, so I can't avoid VEVO.

She was truly about to take over the world, wasn't she?

Without You

It’s different here without you.
It’s as if there is no sun.
Darkness now surrounds me.
My world seems so undone.

You were my life, my everything,
but now sweetheart you’ve gone.
Somehow I must find faith in God
and let my life go on.

They say time mends a broken heart.
If true, time is my friend.
I’ll count the days until the time
you’re in my arms again.


A little repost of an earlier poem

The footage from August 25th is so sad!!We are seeing all those people smiling at the camera and the equipment being readied, but now we know that some hours after that Aaliyah along and 8 more people would die...

And she said that she always loved water.I wish she had travelled by boat!!!And actually I wish she had a PRIVATE JET.Every semi-successful hoodrat rapper had a private jet, why not the legendary AALIYAH???

I just found her last interview...with 106 & Park...DAYS before her life was cut short...
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r7FPfH0fHH4
Her presence was so intense but not all up in your face
Her voice was so smooth, but not boring AT ALL
Her attitude was so amazing, not obnoxious at all, so approachable and so humble

R.I.P. Aaliyah

Everybody who crashed with her on that plane that day were very good friends with her. It showed how much of a heartfelt woman she was, in that footage they had so much fun together.

I've never seen that video, it's great. Just seeing her so genuine when she goes to the amusement park.

I can't watch this. I remember watching Lisa 'Left Eye's final days and they actually showed the car crashing at the very end. I was like WTF.

Sadly. It also went gold in the UK, third biggest selling song of 2005, and also got to number one in Australia, Belgium, France, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, and Switzerland. It was also the biggest selling song in Belgium and New Zealand of 2004. (thank you wikipedia )

Oh, that's horrible. I can watch the final days on YT but when it comes to the crash I can't.
