Like I said, I think Mary fans just want Mary to be happy (laughter).īLIGE: (Singing) Come, come, and see about me. SHEPHERD: I love "Come See About Me." So first of all, she sounds really sort of happy and unburdened, which is great to hear. Is it ever going to be enough?īLIGE: (Singing) Oh, yeah. But also, there's just something magical and almost, like, spiritual, I think, about where she goes emotionally in that voice.īLIGE: (Singing) You can't see what you got at home. And I think it's a combination of just her really feeling it. SHEPHERD: Where her power comes is from her ability to express emotions in a way that feels so real. MARY J BLIGE: (Singing) Tell me, why is it so typical to let it go? Walk away for physical, forget the love. And just - you can feel her pain in her voice. And it's just really classic in that she has this way of getting at her emotions and what she's going through that feels very, you know, realistic. JULIANNE ESCOBEDO SHEPHERD: So I really like "Enough" because it sounds like a very classic Mary song. Blige superfan Julianne Escobedo Shepherd to talk about a few standout tracks. So we've enlisted the help of music journalist and Mary J. It's called "Good Morning Gorgeous." And given that this is a big weekend for her - a new album and a performance during tonight's Super Bowl halftime show - we thought we'd show her a little love as we close out the show.
