Reviews
“From the opening track “One Door Opens” I was pulled in. Her music has a hop in its step with optimism and hope for a better day. The album is really well produced with all the elements balanced and breathing like a true professional. With this collection of songs Amy shows that she is no singer-come-lately but a true talent.”

“Ms Gordon has more in her armoury that she can use to make that crater in your consciousness. Take off your Kevlar helmet for the title song of her album, “Waiting On Go”, is nothing less than a showtune infused with near gothic sensibilities and she sends the song out into the crowd as if theatre was all there was.”

“Beautiful voice, beautiful melody, catchy tunes! Highly recommend this CD for those people who truly appreciate a true music talent!”
“Amy has a beautiful voice. My favorites are “One Door Opens” and “Wake Up Everymorning”. Loved the lyrics and enjoyed them all. The “One Door Opens” is stuck in my head and I love to sing along thru my long commute. What a talented young lady!!”
“I just bought and listened to this album a few times through, it’s a very fine debut – I’m partial to catchy pop songs with lyrics that could work on a movie soundtrack and there are several strong songs in this collection that would work well – One Door Opens, Waiting on Go, Back, and Someone Just Like You. These are some of my favorites – they are melodic songs with thoughtful lyrics. A quite listenable album, I’ve got it on background while I work.”
