"There's nothing in this CD that will change the music industry as we know it, but this is nonetheless very good and listenable. Joy Enriquez has nothing to be ashamed about in her debut album; there are some standout songs here.Every pop album by a young female with a big voice has several fairly standard tracks, and there are a couple here which are uninspiring, but the good songs are a big, big plus. Highlight tracks for me are Joy's ballads where her voice gets a chance to shine - "Just When I Needed You", "Losin' The Love" and "With This Love" are three great songs that wouldn't be out of place on any chick flick (that's not a criticism!), and the big single here in Australia, "Tell me how you feel", was deservedly popular.The Latino/ dance feel of "Shake up the Party" is really well done - the remixes on that single are also excellent, and I think the Latin influence is something that Joy could exploit a little further - granted, it's been done by many others, and at times Joy sounds like a junior Jennifer Lopez (with a far better range and vocal quality), but it is a good track.Finally, the highlight of this import album is the bonus track ('bonus'? The US album has tracks this one doesn't, which is disappointing for us!): "How Can I Not Love You" from the film "Anna and the King". Fantastic, beautiful, emotional track and probably the best part of a disappointing movie.Joy has a warmth and rich quality to her voice some of the other young divas do not; but more importantly her warmth and sincerity as a person shine through in whatever she does, and that makes a welcome change from the posturings of the Britneys of the world. I wish her every success. Excellent album."

Oh! Joy!

"Finally a Singer who takes the time to mesmerizingly sing with passion, Joy's voice is one of the sweetest I heard in a long time, she lets her voice flow melodicly throughout the this cd, when other female artists choose to scream, she simply lifts her voice up a notch or two without losing the feeling, Joy, I'll "Tell You How I Feel" honestly "I Can't Believe" it took so long, but I knew that "Someday" you would come along, change the "Situation" & come "Shake Up The Party" I mean, "How Can I Not Love You" or this cd?? do yourself a favor treat yourself to some great music! it's a perfect blend of funky R&B tracks like "Tell Me How You Feel" & smooth as silk ballads like "How Can I Not Love You" It's amazing how music can lift your spirits when your feeling down. Pick up your copy today!"

She's A Joy To The World!

"Joy Enriquez is one of the most talented R&B singers in the music industry, in my opinion. Her voice is so beautiful and exceptional. Her songs are terrific. The way she sings is wonderful. I could keep on praising her all day but it would take too much space. Her debut album is amazing. End."
