"For the young woman in the middle of teenage angst, seeking music as a balm, a audio healing, this album was it for me.Phoebe sung my woes, my hearts, my joys and my sorrows. My heart may have been broken, but hours listening to Never Letting Go, Something So real, Majesty of Life and We're Children always gave me relief.Phoebe is as much as part of my younger years as Earth, Wind and Fire Concerts and disco's. Yeah, I was there and so grateful her music allows me to return to it again and again.22 Years later? Her music is still as fresh and vibrate now as it was then.Love you girl...Margaret"

"In 1975 I was introduced to Phoebe's music via my dear friend Honey Warren whom I haven't seen in over 15 yr. The 1st thing I heard by her was Poetry Man. I fell in love with the albumn. My little sister introduced me to Second Childhood and I was again mesmerized by her style and realism of life experiences. And then came Never Letting Go which I discovered myself in the record shop one day. I have all of the above mentioned albums. My son wrote me last week and said to me "Mama, my friends don't understand why I like Phoebe Snow so well. I can see you in my minds eye lying in front of the stereo singing you heart out to Phoebe when we were little. I used to wonder "what could that lady be saying that made you play her songs over and over again;' now I understand,and I just tell them it's too deep for you:-).""

"Over 20 years ago, I heard an achingly beautiful song that has haunted me ever since. I didn't catch its name, but I kept singing a bit of the chorus to record store employees and DJs, hoping someone could identify it for me. No luck! And then one day while surfing amazon.com, I started sampling audio clips and I found it: "Majesty of Life" by Phoebe Snow. I ordered the CD, hoping the song would be even half as sensitive and tender as I remembered it, filled with great hopes and fond expectations.Happily, the album didn't disappoint me in the slightest. "Majesty of Life" is every bit as sweet an expression of yearning in the year 2000 as it was back in 1977, and the other songs on the album are equally timeless (particularly the passionate title track). Miss Snow's vocals throughout are superb; her style is undated and the recording is crisp and clear. This is an album to treasure; I, for one, will never let it go ..."
