of his top musical influences. Eric was also influenced by
Al Green, Sly Stone, Donny Hathaway, Chaka Kahn, Earth,
Wind and Fire, Marvin Gaye, Steely Dan, the Beatles, Queen
and gospel music among others. He started showcasing his
musical talent in church in the gospel choir. Eventually,

realized at a young age that he wanted to pursue music
professionally.

------ About artist/band Eric Benet
Eric your music has a healing power and helps people believe in love. Your song "Don't let go" helped me see, I had to fight for my marriage even if my spouse didn't fight with me. your music is so captivating all my kids ages:11,8 and 3 know the lyrics. At least once a day we all sing our favorite song (of course)" Don't let go"! Thank you for making music my children can appreciate and also learn a little something about love and life. "love, patience and time" is a song that humbles us everytime we hear it and helps us appreciate all we have in life and never to forget those who have it worse than we do. Please keep up the good music and Thank you for the sexy, classy and energectic concert you gave in Orlando on 10/10/09 at the house of Blues.

------ About artist/band Eric Benet
I have been an admirer of Eric Benet since his first solo album "True to Myself". This man is a phenomenal human being;he gives so much of himself to his fans and music. His songs have so much 'depth' you can feel the energy that he releases into each lyric. It's a blessing that he has not changed his style of music to apease his record label, marketing, etc. He has been "true to himself", lol-that says alot about his intregity. I'm honored to be one of his fans...Eric, please don't stop the music. :o)
I think he is a wonderful singer he touches your heart and really makes you think about being in love. Also being a single parent that involves tradey and you have to help that child through it for the rest of their lives. I love a lot of his songs, feminity, I wanna be loved, Just my way, the one he did with Roy Ayers, and I can go on and on. Just take your time in finding true love it is going to be hard because you are looking for the one you lost so quickly but remember some people are only in are life for a season and in that season she gave you the greatest gift in the world your daughter India. Waiting to hear some new songs soon.

------ About the song I Wanna Be Loved performed by Eric Benet
honestly so many love songs these days are just babbling bullshit and you cant really relate, and the ones that arent babbling bullshit are just uttering completely cliche ''ideal'' love... not that i understand love nor does anyone else but if anything this is on the mark of that elusive happines we all strive for love. this song is truly awesome to say the least.

I have followed Eric's career. I remember seeing him on a talk how years ago. His voice captivated me and I knew then that this man would be making great music for a long time. He has a heavenly voice. His new CD Hurricane is DA BOMB! Of course, my favorite song on it is I Wanna Be Loved. This song speaks to my very soul. Everytime I hear it I have to stop what I'm doing and listen very closely to it. Thank you Eric and keep up the good work. You are a fantastic artist and trust me....your love life will rise above what you have already accomplished.
i'm verry sad for my love away, but i don't have enought money to bye this song, i'm vietnamese, but this song make me smiles
