 Stellar performance by a rising star! June 12, 2008
9 out of 9 found this review helpful
I was completely distracted from what I was doing last night when this talented musical artist began her network television debut performance on Leno. At the conclusion of her performance, I immediately referenced the Tonight Show site for more information, then went on to listen to song samples on the web.
The first track, Dream, was the song performed live, and it was simply beautiful. Despite nervousness, she controlled her vocals well across a wide range. Her voice carries a lightness or great strength as necessary, and the arrangements are very pleasing. If you enjoy artists like Sarah McLachlan, Dido, Anna Nalick, and Beth Orton, you will likely appreciate Ms. Ahn. For a first album, this one is quite well done. I will certainly be recommending this artist, and look forward to her future endeavors!
Priscilla is a great new star July 16, 2008

I discovered Priscilla Ahn on a free ITunes card at Starbucks. After I listened to the song "Dream", I knew I had to have the album.
Priscilla's voice is beautiful, and her songs are a mix of folksy, upbeat, and thoughtful. I'm very pleased with this album. Most songs have simple guitar backing, and the guitar is played well and the audio quality is excellent. Her voice stands on its own, blending her own harmonies played as loops over the primary vocals. There are no bad tracks on the album, although the following are my favorites:
Dream - the first single. Her voice hits beautiful highs, as she longs for the future and her dreams. The song is surreal and relaxing, conveying the concern and joy for the future. This song really showcases her voice, with a chorus of tones in the middle of the song.
I Don't Think So - A great beat, a great beginning. Here Priscilla has some very interesting intonations that display a range of styles in her voice. The guitar has a hint of country twang which is a nice variety if you eclectic in your musical tastes.
Leave the Light On - This song has a country folk style with a catchy tune which is very enjoyable. There are great harmonies voiced in the background.
Red Cape - This track is a departure, with a mostly vocal start and only a hint of instruments. Priscilla's voice is interesting in its range in this song, with beautiful pitch changes mid-word, and great backing harmonies, also by Priscilla. As usual, a great beat and catchy tune cap the song off.
One other note. I've seen reviews that say her album is too juvenile, too corny. Well as is often the case, the professional reviewers find fault with things many of us don't care about. I say buy the album! [...]
Amazing June 12, 2008

She is simply an amazing find. Pure talent that is classic. Her voice is enchanting and her music should be shared with the world. Get this CD. Dream is such a wonderful song and it absolutely touches your heart. I was so captivated by her voice the first time I heard it, that I just had to find out who she was asap. This is music that will not let you down. It is mellow, sweet, and beautiful. Support an artist that actually deserves to have a record and check her out.
Lovely Summertime Songs! June 13, 2008

This is such a laid back mellow cd. Something to listen to in the sunshine, while lying in the hammock. I feel in love with Dream, and checked everyday until the CD came out. This is a great find!

I saw her on Letterman or Leno, and just loved the sound of the song, and the lyrics were excellent as well. This cd is excellent!
