It’s no secret that former RCA artist and Broadway songstress Heather Headley has a gospel CD coming out this fall on EMI Gospel. She is a “PK,” after all!
What is surprising is that an intrepid YouTuber caught the lovely Trinidadian performing one of the songs from the project, “I Wish,” at an August showcase sponsored by EMI Gospel. (I thought the song was called “I Wish You Enough,” but what do I know!)
Regardless of the title, as an attendee of this showcase, I was blown away immediately by the song and Heather’s sumptous reading of it. “I Wish” is warm, passionate, wholesome and offers a genuine message of carism. I predict that it will be a hit on some chart (presumably gospel but not necessarily limited to gospel) when it is officially released. I can also imagine it showing up in a film or television soundtrack, it’s just that good.
One of the best songs I’ve heard this year. Check it out for yourself:

I was wondering what ever happened to Headley. I absoultely love her voice and her previous project. Glad to know she’s coming out with something new. My fingers are crossed on her jump to gospel.
