"So, this album marks the latest adventures of the best kept secret in music history. You'll hear lazy, closed minded individuals kvetching about Amy's "nasal" vocal delivery. Don't listen to those malcontents, Amy Allison sings and writes with the best of them and deserves to be a huge star. This could be the outright pop album of the year but that'd depend on justice being done. When was the last time that happened...?"

"Amy Allison is one of pop's GREAT poets. If the likes Shania Twain recorded the Allison's poptastic "Baby, You're The One" she would probably turn it into an international multi-million seller and ruin it for us already loving it. Many of the songs could be BIG hits for more "normal" voiced singers. Amy Allison's voice like her talent is something unique and something to be treasured. No one else could sing these songs quite as great as Amy does. You believe she's lived every song and she comes over as a much smarter version of Karen Black's character in the movie classic "5 Easy Pieces".
The spellbindingly gorgeous but edgy production from David Scott of The Pearlfishers provides perhaps the best ever setting for Amy's songwriting and vocals. "Don't String Me Along", the album's most beautiful song is surely up there in the all time top 20 greatest heartbreak tracks.
If all you can hear is that Amy's voice isn't exactly average it's time you cleaned your ears out and opened your mind. Albums this great are very rare."
Absolutely magnificent!

"What a great CD. What a talent. Amy Allison keeps getting better & better and this CD is her best yet. Her voice, her songwriting, her production are all first class. Can't say enough about her unique quirky voice, her brainy thoughtful down but up again lyrics and all around musicianship. A true artist that you hope gets the wide recognition she deserves but even if she doesn't, you know she has the respect of her fans, her friends and the people she makes music with."
