The first single from Fantasia’s highly anticipated forthcoming studio album has emerged. The track, entitled ‘Even Angels’, was produced by The Stereotypes, and will be performed on ‘The Oprah Winfrey Show’ tomorrow. Fantasia’s new album hits stores later this year.
It looks like Fantasia took a page from the Mariah Carey playbook with this one. In fact, this sounds a lot like something Carey and Bryan-Michael Cox would have put forward. Either way, it’s a brilliant song. Her breathy vocals work wonderfully over the production, displaying passion yet restraint. This song may definitely be the radio hit that she has been looking to capture with her new LP.
Sdiebar: I’ still excited to hear ‘Move On Me’!
I’m loving this song by Fantasia. I’m tired of the hollering that she does, all while dancing barefoot on the stage. This song gets my vote. Get it Fanny!
i like this very nice…and she looks gudd in that picture above ( which is sayn alot ) j/p
she is a no holds barred type of singer, honestly she could sing the phonebook and it would be a hit!! The world has been sleeping on miss Fantasia, maybe this album and all those performances she has done singing the greats songs in tribute to them will wake them up!! Cause when she sang Lady marmalade……. ARE YOU SERIOUS!!! sHE IS THE TRUTH!!
LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fanny is back, finally!
I WILL DEFINITELY be buying her CD, I suggest yall do the same
Fantasia is the truth.love how she holds back and lets the beauty of her voice do its work …See you at the top of the charts…
Love FANTASIA to death but this as a 1st single, I’m not really feeling it. Give me something like “BUMP WHAT YOUR FRIENDS SAY” as a 1st single
THIS JUST GOES TO SHOW HOW MUCH OF A BEAST SHE IS….THIS SONG MADE ME CRY…HER VOICE IS SO ANOINTED…
looove it
i like it, but don’t love it. yet.
@STEFFON: YES! that song is the business!
I guess we know who won the “Move On Me” battle…
I’ll give it to the label, this is a great radio-ready song…a wee bit unoriginal, but with my girl Fantasia on the track, it’ll be in heavy rotation in my Itunes. That “even angels” line at the end of the chorus is crazy catchy! If this ain’t a hit for Ms. ‘Tasia, radio bias against her will be RECONFIRMED!
Although what happened to the “live instrumental” theme Fantasia said she was gunning for on this album. As far as I can hear, “Even Angels” sounds like a normally digitized R&B song. Not necessarily a bad thing, but not instrument-heavy either.
Love this song, looking forward to the album.
I dunno, a bit boring for me. the production is awful, especially on the chorus. it is too over powering. i love Fantasia and hope it is a hit, just so i can hear more from her album on tv and radio, but this don’t really work for me. i think it will do alright at radio, its a very obvious radio type song.
Go Tasia! I’m feeling this…
Finally, Fantasia. I love it. I am glad you decided to go with this one. U gotta listen to your record company babe(JRecords) Clive Davis knows whats a hit. Its POP and I am glad. U will be fine dont worry. After tomorrow when we see u on Oprah, you will finally know EVEN ANGELS, EVEN ANGELS (Learn How To Fly)
I absolutely love this song. It is so beautiful, inspirational, motivational just lovely. Go ahead Fantasia with your bad self. Sang girl. Show people how versatile you are. I love it!!!
Love this song, glad it’s not just some loved up club banger but actually has some substance to it. I’d be very happy if the rest of the album followed this trend. Great stuff.
WOW ..I love it !! Even Angels will be a hit on radio. All my Filipino friends in Hollywood love it! WE LOVE FANTASIA… WE MISSED YOU!!
OH MY GOD YES!!!
I LIKE THIS SONG ALOT! BUT I THE SONG THAT SHE WAS GOING TO RECORD ON THE EPISODE MONDAY SOUNDED MORE LIKE HER. THIS SONG DOESN’T SOUND LIKE HER BUT IT’S RADIO FRIENDLY SO I SEE WHY THEY RELEASED IT AS A FIRST SINGLE. CAN’T WAIT FOR HER ALBUM!
Generally, I don’t get excited about pop music, but I understand why the record company has gone in this direction. A definite nod to the folks out there who’ve been calling for a more “restrained” Tasia. I like “Even Angels” and the more I listen to it the more I appreciate it and can imagine a lot of folks taking strength from it. Her last album (which I loved) lacked hooks. This songs does not suffer in that way. It’s downright catchy–as I believe is the hook in “Move On Me.” I think the cooks have likely gotten the recipe right for Fantasia this time. I’m at the edge of overjoyed for her.
Thumbs up, good radio song.
10’s
I love the song and I think it was a GREAT decision! This songs shows how versatile Fantasia really is and I can’t wait to hear more songs off the album! I’ll be out buying this cd as soon as it comes out!!!
Great 1st single…I’m so excited for this album!
Cute song, but it’s written in a way that any one that can hold a note, can sing this. Love her voice but on this song…WHERE IS IT? It’s drowned out. You hear the music more than you hear her. It seems like making something Radio-friendly almost translates to water down/wash away as much evidence of true talent, as possible.
P.S. I don’t mean she has to yell and scream, but let us actually hear her gift (voice).
This is NOT the first single from her upcoming, just a featured track as it was featured on the reality show.
i like this a lot
hope her whole album is this good
i wonder what other types of sounds she gonna have
luv this
i would have believed you if you had said this was michelle williams
very pretty song, i like it, the harmony sounds familliar at some points
i cried to this song….soo real….i cant help but play it over n over n over again….
This song is absolutely stunning! I’m really enjoying the restrained vocals! Although this track isn’t groundbreaking, it”s perfectly suitable! — I’m listening to it as we speak!
Hi Fantasia.
I am so excited about the new direction you are going with your music.
“Even Angels” is destined to be a #1 hit . The song is hot!!! I like it a lot.
Continue to work hard so you can be one of the top female singers. I
look forward to seeing you nominated on all the music award shows and
wining. The ball is in your court; Fantasia; you can win all.
Good Luck and God Bless!
A Fan From The Begining.
WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW YAAAAAAS FANTASIA !!!
Now THAT is a single and a HIT ! Listened to it at school like crazy and when i took the bus back too hahah , Sooo addictive , i’m realy impressed , and i will looking forward to see what she’s going to put out this year !
GO TASIA , JUST STUNNING !!!!!!
This is actually a *great* track in all the right ways – not the boring generic trash that usually gets props on this blog!
As I just finished listening to this song, I hate to say this because I usually ride with Tasia all day everyday… but I was totally bored by this track. She doesn’t have to scream and yell, but this song was too underwhelming IMO. I know a great majority of her true R&B fans want singers to go back to singing in ways that will make the hairs on their arms stand up. I mean this song doesn’t do it at all. I hope she has better songs to offer on her album, because unfortunately i’m disappointed with this.
Fantasia Congradulations on the new release
GREAT SONG!!!!!!!!!!!! MY HOME GIRL LOOKING GOOOOOOD,GOD IS WORKING THINGS OUTFOR HER.BACK-UP SINGER FROM HIGH POINT YOU’RE NEXT IN LINE. LOVE YALL
Hmmm… I am a HUGE Fantasia Fan and I think I will one day go crazy over this song, but I have to agree with Ms. Clay that I would have loved to have heard the song she wanted to be her single that she performed on her reality show. I think this will be a great crossover song. I think its safe for a wider audience who may enjoy a softer side of Fantasia. Personally, I think it sounds like a slower and more mature Miley Cyrus and the chorus has hints of Miley’s summer hit, Party in the USA.
Love Me Some Fantasia and I hope this album is a HIT!! She deserves it!
good song
OMG! I’m in love with this song. I’ve been waiting for a brilliant song from Fantasia. She has done it. This is a definite hit. I’m a die hard Tasia fan. This is the kind of song she needs to be singing. I’m definitely buying this CD as I did the last two but this time with so much enthusiasm.
This song is a hit, I love it
I agree I enjoyed this song, however, it is something different from Fantasia. I do like the slow Fantasia better because she have some mad crazy vocals and I believe they are better expressed in a slow tempo song. She has been a fan of mine since idol and I will stick with her through the good and the bad but hey she has been nothing but great so far. Plz keep up the good work and I so cant wait for that new album.
I love it love it love it
I personally like this song. Do I think this is a radio hit? Maybe maybe not. She needs to put that song that she was recording on her show on the radio. It’s called I can’t be without you. It’s the best song that I herd from her so far.
I LUV WATEVA FANTASIA SINGS…….I LUV DIS SONG BUT NOT AS A SINGLE……C** ON ITS NOT A SINGLE TYPE SONG……I THINK SHE SHUD PIC THE SONG ON THE EPISODE LAST MONDAY……THE ONE DHAT HER ND OLE DUDE JUS STARTED FROM SCRATCH ON………
WHEN I HEARD THIS SONG IT BROUGHT TEARS TO MY EYES, BECAUSE THIS SONG ACTUALLY HAS A MEANING TO IT.MY DAUGHTER IS 2 AND SHE LOVES IT SHE ALWAYS SAY WHEN THE SONG GOES OFF LETS DO IT AGAIN MOMMA, SO WE PLAY IT OVER AND OVER AGAIN . FANTASIA HAS REALLY DONE IT THIS TIME, IF SHE CONTINUE TO GIVE US REAL MUSIC LIKE THIS SHE WILL GO FARTHER THAN SHE HAS GONE .FINALLY SHE HAS PICKED UP HER WINGS TO FLY.
love her. but really wish she would keep her shoes on. it look so country.. come on girl time to classy it up so we can get you on a beyonceor alica keys level. you sing way better then them. but you are not as classy. so step it up miss ladie and stop all the wilding out. look at your video for yourself. it aint pretty. the american idol one wher you sang god bless the child. was beautiful
This wazzup…thats the jam!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
this song go so hard i think that tasia iz going to c** bak so had diz year she doing so gud 4 her self
I THINK THAT THE SONG IS VERY NICE AND BEAUTIFUL AND IS A INSPIRATION TO ME BECAUSE MAYBE I WILL GO FOR MY DREAM SO KEEP MOVE HIGHER AND HIGHER IN EVERYTHING YOU DO.
I LOVE this song ! This song has meaning to it. The song brought tears to my eyes. I am so proud to see Fantasia making it and doing what she love to do. You go girl. The frist time I heard her sing I knew she was going to stay in the game for along time, because she is an oringinal.
This album is truly highly anticipated!! We can’t wait for the album to drop on Aug 10th. Hope everyone is getting there pre-orders in because it will be a hit! Check out hot new video of her top three popular videos at: youtube.com/soulmusicfanatic
the song is so great im lovin it
I LOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE DIS SONG FANTASIA GURL YOU DID IT AGAIN AND DIS SONGS REALLY TOUCH MY HEART AND MAKE ME THINK ‘BOUT A LOT KEEP UP DA FANTASTIC!!!!!!!!! WORK TASIA I LOVE YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is a great sounding song! I love it so much because it proves, again, that she is capable of singing many different styles of music. She has a wonderful voice and, inspite of all the negative things that’s happened, she will go far. She should hold her head up and realize that we all make mistakes in life. We have to learn from our past mistakes and make a better future for ourselves. I don’t think, I KNOW that this young lady belongs right up there with the top female voices of today. She knows it too! Congratulations on your new album… I do plan to buy it.
I love this Song… good job Fantasia!!!
