Summary: Heart and Soul for the Eyes and Ears
Review: All I can say is, your eyes will be glued to the screen, and your ears will want to hear more. If there truly was an example of what the nature of UNPLUGGED is all about, this video would be the one. Lauryn Hill bares all in this heart wrenching delivery of raw feeling,thoughts and talent. Every song had a powerful burst of spirituality and thought provoking lyrics that were so deep I could hardly believe what I was hearing. In this video Lauryn had an open realness to her beauty, not the dressed up superstar look she had before, but more of a natural, this is me take it or leave it appeal; every facial expression showed her heartfelt emotional connection to each song, and she sucked me into her reality everytime she spoke. Each note that she hit or missed showed the truth about her humanity, yet it never took away from the respect or adoration she commanded from her stage presence. I give this Unplugged video 5 stars just because it is the most honest, beautiful performance I've ever seen.

Summary: Keeping It Real
Review: I have not yet viewed the live performance, but just from the cd alone I have never experienced an artist so real. I have never met people in life as real as she is. She reveals who she is in the most intimate way. She tears away the layers of herself right in front of you. Her lyrics are sublime and the song arrangements are profound!!!! After you have listed to this album it is like you were given a ticket of admission into Lauryn's heart & soul! This is a must. High praise & respect to Ms. Hill is deserved.

Summary: impressive but.....
Review: I'm a Lauryn Hill fan and I purchased this DVD cus of the positive reviews posted this site. She's really good, no doubt about that. Her voice was cracking a lot of times though. You could really feel what she's saying. Not bad with the guitar also. When the track starts, you'll get into it, after a while you'll loose focus cus there's too much adlib. I'm sure the audience felt the same way. Some were already out of it. She's really good but there's too much adlib. She also talks too much in between tracks. An hour and 45 minutes with only 13 songs..... go figure

Summary: TRUTH
Review: Lauryn Hill bleeds her heart out to everyone through this DVD. She inspires, motivates, and perpetuates inner thought. When watching this performance, one walks out feeling rejuvinated and re-evaluates society and your place in it. Inner demons seemed to haunt Lauryn Hill but obviously overcomes the tragedy of love, life, and forgiveness with oneself. She emates from what is raw and pure emotion which she uses her amazingly- beautiful rapsy voice and her acustic guitar. The music is only secondary as the message is the most thought- provoking passages I have encountered. Her performance of "I Gotta Find A Peace of Mind" is mind- altering, heart- dropping poetry of issues that we all deal with. Towards the end of the song, she cries and pours all her energy so she can get her point accross. The audience is left in tears as well as it is the most incredible sight one can be part of. Please, whether on MTV or through this DVD, just watch it and you will see a strong woman who overcomes everything and still can stand strong in the light of day.

Review: Words cannot express the stature of the poetry contained in this concert. I have it on CD and didn't know it was on DVD until about 2 weeks ago. Only buy this if you enjoy poetry of life, love, and self. Definately not ordinary. "I Gotta Fine Peace of Mind", "Adam Lives in Theory", "Jerusalem", "Get Out"... All Classics.
