- WDVR-FM / Curtain Up

"This tall, striking mezzo is something else again. An appealing combination of slinky and straight-forward!
- The Village Voice

"I Got Lost in His Arms," "You Fascinate Me So" and the title song "What You'd Call A Dream" soar to new heights under her excellent execution!"
- Electronic Link Journey.com

"Each track on this album seems to highlight another sparkling facet of Meyer's talent; crisp, clear enunciation on "Stars and the Moon" excellent vocal control, ranging between diminuendo and crescendo with "The Lies of Handsome Men" immaculate phrasing in "Beyond Compare" and the old-fashioned charm, capped by a superbly sustained ending, in Irving Berlin's "I Got Lost in His Arms."
- London's Cabaret Showcase

"Elegant and sophisticated singer of this caliber rarely comes along. Warm, mellow, romantic and precise lyric interpretation and gentle nuances show that Jaymie has a deep sense of the very heart of the lyrics, their meaning, their emotion. Add this treasure to your own music collection so you can listen to singing the way it's supposed to be!"

REVIEWS

"Her voice is lovely...her song selections are most pleasing..."
author: Noelle Porterfield
                            
I like good music. It kind of sends me to another place beyond my workaday world and the usual responsibilities of life. That's why I love this CD so much. Jaymie Meyer (whom I heard of through a friend who claims to know what's good when it comes to singing) fits the bill in every way. Her voice is lovely, her song selections are intelligent and most pleasing, and her arrangements are just superb. I can listen to these cuts over and over again. They're as fresh as ever -- and there's always a song to match the mood I'm in. Maybe there's no perfection on this planet. But "What You'd Call a Dream" comes close (that's why I give it 4 stars!)

Pleasing, varied and relaxing music
author: Louis
                            
This is one CD that I keep in my player all the time so that I can listen whenever the mood strikes me. The lyrics are meaningful and the music is always pleasing to the ear and never tiresome. Jaymie's voice is soothing in the more romantic songs and fun in the satirical ones. I wish she would produce another CD.
