4 out of 5 stars More than most.......2007-02-27

Missy Higgins has been playing at cafes in Melbourne for some time now. She was discovered by Triple J's "Unearthed" competition. What an unearthing it was. She's got a talent that is missing from many acts today. Her music has warmth, honesty and creativity which endears the album to the soul.

I sometimes buy an album on a whim and am more often than not, only finding a couple of songs I like. I bought this one on a whim knowing "Ten Days", "All For Believing" and of course, "Scar" from the radio. I fell in love with the earthy feel that delights all the way through the album. If you have a whim to buy an album - I would full recommend this one!

5 out of 5 stars a voice that is timeless.......2007-01-09

Trust me when i say buy this immediately. Rarely do you find a CD that you can listen to from first to last song without itching to push the "next" button on you player...this is ONE. Every song is great in its own right.

5 out of 5 stars Stunning Music.......2005-09-17

This album is truly amazing, her talent far exceeds any 21 year old musician I have ever heard. I got the honor of seeing her Live in concert with Howie Day, and knew that night I would buy her album. She has a great personality to go along with her amazing talent.

5 out of 5 stars The sound of heaven.......2005-06-12

The Sound of White is the debut album from Australian singer/songwriter Missy Higgins. I recently picked it up after months of speculation, but now wish I hadn't waited. This is truly one of the finest albums I have heard in recent years. Where do I begin? The breathtaking title track sends shivers up my spine every time, and then there is the beautiful "Ten Days" and the latest single "Special Two". More fine tracks fill a great collection. The piano player is just mesmerising. The only fault I have with the album is the very first single "Scar" which I have never liked, it does feel out of place on the album (in my opinion). Aside from this very minor detail, I highly recommend Missy's debut album to all. Do what you can to get a copy.
