Covers More Than a Woman with a great rap. I always liked James but didn't particularly get him at the same time, and he never stood out.

I'm a huge Aaliyah fan so I was immediately interested and after hearing it, I was hooked. Great, innovative rap too.

good cover

is this definately HIS version and he hasnt just copied someone else?

I love Aaliyah! His version is great

Wow I really love that so good

Can't they let poor Aaliyah rest in peace. This will surely make her turn in her grave.

Hasn't he ruined enough songs?

Ruined. Aaliyah was seductive and had an alluring voice. James' version is horrible with that stupid rap in the middle. Her songs are very hard to pull off, and I don't think James did tbh.

Wow, I love it. James is brilliant.

Nice, the rap was great.

That brought tears to my eyes. Loved Aaliyah and the rap tribute was just beautiful.

Where was I? Only started paying attention from wk 3.

i sort of see what detractors are saying but overall, i just get all the emotions he puts in and that weighs more than say , his diction. also love the way he has a structure and always has his way of taking a song to its climax!!


for example, in "no more drama", detractors are complaining that he's incomprehensible in parts... if they meant 1:47 to 1:50... i rest my case...:sleep:

Really like this hope he records stuff like this for his album

Now that is why he is my favourite on X Factor!
