Sometimes the description of one''s music is best left to the professionals...
"... The vocals of this amazing artist only give the great lyrics an even more powerful presence. ...There''s an aura to this music that I find difficult to explain with words, but that only tells me of the amount of passion that is delivered on this album.

"Each and every song has that certain something special that music seems to have a shortage of this day and age. I think that the thing that attracts me to this music is the fact that I feel so comfortable listing to it. It''s like it''s been part of my life for so long. That is the power behind the songwriting of Monique Berry."

"Let me first say this is an INCREDIBLE album. From the first song, "I Don''t Owe You Anything" (which I found myself singing along to almost instantly) to the last song, ... this CD is one epic adventure! Anyone who is familiar with Monique Berry''s work should buy this one immediately. For everyone else, I will guide you through this amazing album.

"Monique Berry, in my opinion, struck gold with this album. She has an incredible vocal range and sings with sincerity and emotion. Her piano playing, which is somewhat of a mix between George Winston and Tori Amos, is wonderful. I predict Hollywood will be calling Monique Berry to do a soundtrack for a movie any day now, although it''d be difficult to make one good enough for her music."

"Monique Berry, a promising piano song artist on her debut emerges fully formed as a stunning pop-soul artist on her sophomore release Waking Up. Emotionally bare, these songs are authentic and intimate portraits of a revealing lyricist showing advanced sophistication in her arrangements. Monique''s songs are beautifully understated pieces that use jazz expression, touches of percolating ethnic percussion and smart, R&B phrasing...."
