One I Gave My Heart To/One in a Million [CD-single]

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
She has already jammed with Gladys Knight in Las Vegas, eloped with influential R&B mogul R. Kelly, and scored two platinum albums--and she's just barely graduated from high school. No, she is not your average teenager, nor is she just another pretty soul singer. On One in a Million, Aaliyah expands on the smooth grooves of her massively successful debut album Age Ain't Nothing but a Number, and shows that all the life experiences have not gone to waste. The production and songwriting talents of Tim 'Timbaland' Mosley and rapper Missy Elliot give the songs on One In A Million a seductive edge with laidback grooves and cool hip-hop licks; but what really makes this album rise above is the full-grown singer at the controls. On the title track, a magical ballad, Aaliyah casts a cool spell with layered voices and a smoky delivery. With the assistance of Slick Rick, she turns Marvin Gaye's "Got To Give It Up" into a funky hip-hop jam for the end of the millennium. While with "4 Page Letter," one of the album's high points, she intricately details the end of love affair. Artists twice her age could only hope to create a work of such clarity and resonance. --Aidin Vaziri

soul solution wrecks shop once again!!.......1999-06-11

The main reason to purchase this disc, is the brilliant Soul Solution remix of "The One I Gave My Heart To". Soul Solution (the team who remixed Toni Braxton's "Un-Break My Heart" with Hex Hector) have a knack for taking Top 40 tracks and turning them into bumpin' club anthems. This is one of their best. The remixes of "One In A Million" are alright - but have nowhere near the power that the Soul Solution mix of "The One I Gave My Heart To" does.

IT IS THE BEST I EVER HEARD FROM THIS YOUNG LADY.......1999-05-13

I don't know what inspired her or how she came with this track, the only thing I can say is that its da bomb.

It was such a beautiful song.......1999-04-13

It is a beautiful song and you can tell Aaliyah really poured her heart out on this one her voice was beautiful and I'm sure everyone can relate to this song. It was so sad and the song was very classy.

I loved the song. Aalyiah's songs always deals with my life........1998-10-27

As a young teenager, I can relate to her song. Although I try to refrain myself from getting all caught up with the "True Love" stuff, You can't help but at least once giving your heart to someone special. There is such a thing as true love, but if you believe your true love is everyone then you need to wake up. I did give my heart to someone but we're not together anymore. I felt so alone, and depressed. I replayed the song over and over again. And of course the first time I heard it, I cried. But even though I'm okay I still love the song and still listen to it. Thank you Aaliyah for singing songs that really happen.

I love the song because it brings out alot of truth........1998-10-07

I love Aaliyah song because it brings out alot of facts. Many of us women today go through alot of heartaches and pain. I gave my heart to someone and he treated like trash. Aaliyah I heard this song and it made me want to cry, but I got over him although he's my baby father. I found someone who's loving and caring and knows what he wants, were getting married next year and I thank you.
