    Listening to Janubia's Mother Tongue is like taking a cross cultural journey through an enchanted foreign land.  The more I listened I felt I began to understand this strange and beautiful language.  I guess they have it right when they say that music truly trancends all languages and borders.

Like an angelic nymph beckoning you to come and join her in her land of splendor…hypnotic familiarity… with vivid color, light and sound...
   
   

Sheer excitement from the very beginning notes. I ask myself how could this be, that a lady who sings in a language that is unknown to man is able to create an experience that takes one into their innerself…
   
    Words, words, words…Although I have no idea what she is singing about, I can feel it. Her music… makes me want to dance, sing, hop around, laugh, all kinds of things...
   
    I heard the first four songs as I drove. Fantastic!... #4 [Bepehon] is a monster...
   
    Great new world beat/latin jazz CD....
   
     
    Janubia has a beautiful voice. It soars and sweeps over the music … a mixture of new age, Celtic, Latin and I don't know what else…unique and beautiful...
   
    Janubia’s vocals coast above soaring somewhere in the clouds… sultry, sexy…a more mischievous Enya…
   
   

I have no idea what she’s saying… I’m left listening to the melody… enjoying it. Maybe that’s the point…
   
    I have enjoyed listening to it very much....
   
    Personally, we don't care what language she's singing…it's heart-felt. You'll dance, you'll sway, you'll get a lump in your throat...
   
 
  Listeners say....
    I mean, really, how did you guys manage this?

I'm referring, with a honorary wave of my hand, accompanied by a subliminal 16th century bow, to that most mysterious elemental sonorous tide, that eloquent musical ambush, Bepehon.

It simultaneously (or rapidly in sequence, depending on your awareness) evokes in the listener, melancholy, hope, desperation, anger, lust, optimism, down and dirty loving, high and earnest loving, desire for all and everything in the universe, all knowledge, all pain, all experience; a paen to hunger, to feasting, to giving love, craving to be loved, chaos and understanding, an almost-overwhelming beseeching to be consumed, to be overpowered, all the while blanketing and overpowering all around it with the raw cellular profusion, a cosmic injection, in your face, in your blood, put that in your heart and pump it, even while it is kicking you out the door.
   
    Her voice is a spectacular vehicle...
   
    Janubia, your voice is a nightingale fluttering in my haunches, a drugless orgasm of time that breathes life into the forest where my foals roam and jolt to its drinkable sound, its sunward drizzle, its endless ray of hopeless elation leaving me no choice but to write to you and beg for more...
   
   

Janubia's music is absolutely beautiful! … The emotion is conveyed…
   
    A veritable masterpiece...Incredibly, Son Raih Si...brought tears to my eyes... unleashing a deeply buried emotion... part of me was understanding every word. Listening to this CD is like taking a trip through some unknown and yet hauntingly familiar world...
   
    I've been playing it… it's really lovely…
   
    A mystical delight that I never get tired of listening to, especially when I need to be transported to a better world...
   
    Janubia is amazing… the best thing I've heard since... ANYTHING...
   
    Music so powerfull it grabs you by the balls, smacks you into the wall leaving you a curled up whimpering mass concerned only with praising the glory that is, in fact, this music!...
   
    Janubia is a Gift on earth. It’s at Once familiar, Worldly, and Extraterrestrial. Listen carefully... You won’t understand the words but you will understand what she is saying.
   
     
    A voice like this is heaven sent!...
   
    Thank you!!! So powerful...this languaging that is no language, sounds of words that become wordless... juicy music...delicious voice... and Alex is verrrrry fine on guitar.
   
    It's what music should be :)...
   
    Fabulous... Second song [Auno Mauno Sahn]could be a worldwide radio hit, maybe first song [Setah], too. I've sort of memorized the sounds by now... on this great CD...
   
    Helluva voice...
   
    A voice so captivating that it takes you to places you never thought you would go... the Janubia Journey...one smile after the other... the perfect place to be!
   
    The music brought peace to my wretched life...
   
    Janubia sounds like she just flew down from heaven after doing time in hell...
   
    Beautiful and unique!!… no better combination when it comes to music! I love this CD… the music… similar to something else but Janubia is on her own page!!!
