At the 2001 Grammy Awards, "I Try" won Best Female Pop Vocal Performance, and was nominated for Record of the Year and Song of the Year. It remains Macy Gray's biggest hit single in the US to date, and her only one to reach the top 40 of the Billboard Hot 100.

Macy Gray's voice always sounded like Janis Joplin and Tina Turner had a child, at least to me. Janis bringing that scratchy high register, and Tina bringing that low smoky power. Just a phenomenal singer. Great reaction.

Macy has one of those voices that once you hear it, you never mistake it for someone else. I got to see her live at an Amnesty International concert in the mid 80s and she’s still as great today as she was on that evening. I’m so glad y’all had the chance to be introduced to her. Loved watching y’all fall in love with her and with this song. Happy weekend my friends! Be well.

Macy was part of the "Neo-Soul" movement of the early 2000s along with artists like Maxwell, Angie Stone, and Alicia Keys, among others. Please check out "Why Didn't You Call Me?" My favorite Macy song.

This song changed a lot of things in the music scene when it dropped. She brought the rasp, the R&B, the pop-esque vibe.....so glad you listened:)

@raserx63 Год назад

There was a huge tour/Festival in the late 90’s with all female artists called The Lilith Fair. You should check the artists that performed there and react to the ones you haven’t heard yet. Joan Osborne , Sara McLachlan , Meredith Brooks, Jewel , Sheryl Crow , Dido , Fiona Apple , the list goes on. My suggestion is Joan Osborne “Right Hand Man”...her vocals on that song are killer !

@iangrant3615 Год назад

I happened to interview Macy on two occasions and she is a really interesting person and a unique artist. She told me she was always very conscious of her croaky voice and being tall and having a distinctive appearance when she was young going to a school where the other students didn't look like her, so she became quite introverted. But her career has been a revelation in her discovering that the things that made her feel isolated then became the things that made her a success as an artist, of course backed up by the fact she is a genuinely talented songwriter and performer.

That album, “On How Life Is”, is a stone-cold classic from beginning to end! You could pick any song on it for a great time listening, but for the most wickedly funny storytelling I strongly recommend “I’ve Committed Murder”. (She wrote or co-wrote the songs as well.) Great pick you guys!😎🤩❤

@calipidgious Год назад

I saw her in a teeny little club in Boston the February 2000, right after this song hit the radios. She is TALL and a little bit of a rauncy performer. One of the most amazing shows of my life. Sy Smith opened for her. She's has been a back up singer for a crap ton of people and was Gray's back up singer that tour. It was standing room only and essentially it was one huge group of people all dancing with each other. It didn't matter who you were with, you were dancing with everyone around you. Everyone was pretty much drippin' sweat and having the best time! The show started late and ran long so when it was over my roomie and I had to run for the train to get out of the city and back to our car. My hair was frozen stiff by the time we got to the train station. Great times.

@jedislap8726 Год назад

This song just blew up in a way no-one expected. It just caught everyone by surprise. This song won her two BRIT Awards and a Grammy. Funny you should mention the Jazzy tone to her voice as she started out singing in Jazz Bands, initially as a favour to a friend but never thought her voice to be good enough for singing at that time.

Guys, the way this song was everywhere back in 1999 (and for good reason, obviously)! It still makes me smile. "I Try" is the second single from Macy's debut album, On How Life Is (1999); it's her most successful single to date, peaking at #6 in the UK, #5 in the US, #2 in Canada, and #1 in Australia, Ireland and New Zealand. Please react to Macy Gray - "Do Something" and "Sweet Baby (feat Erykah Badu)."

@hedgewitchherbarium Год назад

When this song came out, it was like a breath of fresh air! Macy's voice is sweet and ethereal, in contrast to another artist I urge you to check out: Skunk Anansie (the lead singer - Skin - is amazing, with powerful vocals that can also retract into a whisper) - starting with "I can Dream" or "Charlie Big Potato". They were big in the 90's and 2000's (at least, in Europe) Lotsa luv ❣

Macy has a fantastic discography, my personal favorites being "I Try", "Beauty In The World", "Sexual Revolution", "Caligula", "Do Something" & "Still". A similar artist/potential Female Friday pick with vocal scratchiness is Nikka Costa, who has been putting out charting music since she was 5 years old (at 9, had a #1 in Italy with a cover of Irene Cara's "On My Own"). Recommended in order of preference is "Like A Feather", "Everybody Got Their Something", "Push & Pull", "Get Off Of My Sunshine", "Master Blaster", her cover of Prince's (recorded famously by Sinead O' Connor) "Nothing Compares 2 U" & her funk cover with the group Scary Pockets of Bobby McFerrin's "Don't Worry Be Happy".

I worked with Macy Grey before she was famous. In L.A., everyone is usually working at a job to pay the bills while they try to make a name for themselves. She mentioned she was trying to make it as a musician. She asked me if I wanted to listen to her demo tape. I kind of sighed because since a lot of people you meet are trying to be famous you listen to a lot of demo tapes, watch a lot of audition videos, read a lot of scripts. Most of it mediocre. But you try to be supportive so I said yes. She gave me her tape and when I returned it, I just asked her “What are you doing working here?” It was so obvious she was a cut above everyone else. Anyway, as a person, she was great. Very laid back, smart and a nice sense of humor. She eventually quit because she started making a name for herself. I remember the first time I heard her on the radio, I was so excited for her. And happy. Because she deserved it.
