Collette's cover of Erykah Badu's "Orange Moon" had us thoroughly impressed here at SBHQ and had me convinced, after one spin, that her Coco By Request EP would be worth picking up. As well as giving us a glimpse at her upcoming, full-length album, the EP showcased Collette's knack for taking a track -- impressively, a track with a strong association with the original artist(s) -- and transforming it into something that could almost convince you Collette was the original artist. Nowhere is that more apparent than on her beautiful take on one of my favorite India.Arie songs, "Ready For Love." Collette has put together a very simple, yet effective video to accompany the track, which you can see below. If you haven't picked up Coco By Request yet, you can get it here.
