notes
Janubia's voice is a rare jewel. With it's unique quality and her unerringly, authentic delivery, she has been likened to Astrud Gilberto, Basia, Rickie Lee Jones, Flora Purim and Alison Goldfrapp. Janubia, however, is definitely on her own page - She sings in her own language.
More obvious than the lack of recognizeable lyrics is the consistant emotional honesty conveyed throughout Mother Tongue. Many fans, individually reporting their listening experience of the CD, amazingly, have nearly identical personal accounts. Perhaps the lyrical analysis wouldn't stand up in a professor's analytical dissertation but those who have heard her sing, undoubtedly, recognize something genuine.
"If there's anything at all that I might like to represent, it's simply that we all have access to 'Source' or, as I like to call it, 'the Juice'. Doing music is my expression. We all have our own marvelous transmission." ~ Janubia

Not bad
author: Ken RinehartThis CD is ok. I find some of the songs very nice but it didn't make me sit up and take notice, or dance or say wow what a great voice.
very unique!!!!!
author: Kyle KneeboneBeautiful and unique!!! there is no better combination when it comes to music! I love this cd very much because so much of the music in the world is similar to something else but Janubia is on her own page!!!
I'm the first in my high school to buy this (not in stores)!!
author: TimThis is tight. After listening to the first two songs I had to stop and start the CD again just to hear them again. Janubia sounds like she just flew down from heaven after doing time in hell. My friends are getting it, but I was the first. +++++
