  • British singer/songwriter/musician Corinne Jacqueline Bailey Rae first began her musical career playing classical violin in school and singing in church. Years later, she would take the world of music by storm with hit singles, albums and award nominations. However, the immense grief she would suffer after a tragic loss almost crippled her and jeopardized the possibility of any future personal happiness or professional success.

    I absolutely love Corinne Bailey Rae, and am very happy she is doing exceptionally well. Her music just brings me a childlike happiness, just full of innocence. Even the album the sea, though it’s a bit heavier than her usual, it showed growth and an acceptance to whatever was, with optimism of what would come. She’s truly blessed.

    Ooooo I love her! I remember when a reporter asked her if she was going to have children and she scolded them for being so personal. She is notoriously private until it’s something very obvious in her life. It made me smile to know she has 2 babies now. Children are so healing. She is moving right along in life. I truly hope she is happier than even she imagined she would be. ❤️

    I went to the same school as her,went to school guides with her. Grew up admiring her and her sisters too. Her parents were always supportive always positive when I saw them. Her little sister became a soap actress in England and her other sister I think a charity worker,organiser. Very interesting story about her marriage and yes how hard it must have been on top of so much fame a death so soon in her life,so young. It doesnt seem fair. But im sure after he passed she must have gone through a spiritual awakening and found a new self so come back with. It isnt easy. I congratulate her and her family for getting though such times and challenges. A great woman,great music. A rare soul with a music heart

    Never ever take methadone w/o your own prescription, nor drink socially while on it since theres no way of safely judging what YOUR body can tolerate. I personally know two people, both recreational drug users /drinkers, extensive histories of substance use who died as a result of the deadly combination of methadone and booze. Heck they were both active in addiction yet that meant nothing since the body often will tolerate alot of abuse up until it doesnt.

    I thought this was about Corrine or it about an in-depth left turn of "how her husband chose mind altering drugs that helped his crawl to death?

      The topic is what almost caused Corrine to Quit music Indefinitely. Which the Death of her husband nearly made her become recluse. He struggled with substance abuse. And as his wife she may have felt guilt for not doing more to help him. Corrine's personal life is a huge part of her music. So I feel speaking more indepth about this incident actually helps you understand Corrine more. Grief can destroy people. This has been a topic that many of her fans wondered about so it makes sense that its covered in this video. I'm happy she was able to overcome this dark period, has found love again and still continues to bless us with her talents.
