Clever and fresh, amusing, touching, and deeply moving, these songs make us wish we had written them ourselves—or feel that we would if we had Davis's gift for words and music. —Kyr Arnsugr, composer; pianist for Washington Ballet (D.C.), Pacific Northwest Ballet, Oregon Ballet Theatre I am overwhelmed, enthralled, enchanted, moved to tears at the heart-melting beauty of your voice and lyrics.

Anyone should gladly pay ten times as much for such a recording.

Stupendo! Bravissima! ― P. Balestrieri, Pompei, Italia This CD sounds like it all comes from the heart and is full of love for a sweetheart, partner, child. It also has fun with Rocket Scientist. It also has songs and lyrics that are soothing and reflective. When I listen, it lets me dream. ― Marilyn H., Formia, Italy “Rocket Scientist” should be required listening for anyone thinking he or she can write a clever and witty song. The whole disc just shines. ― Ken K., South Pasadena, California Someone Loves is a wonderful, romantic CD to listen to for people who are really in love. My favorite song is Lullaby Forever, which could be played while rocking a child to sleep. It is soft and soothing and can be construed as either a parent’s love for a child or romantic love for your partner. The mix of songs was well done. My second favorite was Don’t Need No Rocket Scientist which has a much faster tempo. I highly recommend this CD for anyone in love. ― Jean E., Egg Harbor, New Jersey I want to tell you that my family is completely captivated by Karen's CD. We play it over and over. The songs are so catchy and memorable. We go around the house singing them! My husband whistles them around the house. And her voice is beautiful! She is so talented! ― Arlene R., Baltimore, Maryland
