5.0 out of 5 stars Close to perfect..., November 15, 2001
By 
"kel_in_la" (Los Angeles, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fortune Cookies (Audio CD)
I, like most, discovered Alana Davis by chance with her debut album. I am always attracted to unique and beautiful voices - Alana could sing my hometown phone book and make it sound sexy and poignant!

Her debut album was a bit raw, but that was so obviously part of her charm. This second album is a bit more "produced," so required some adjustments in my expectations. A good sign? I found myself singing one of the songs a day later and far from my CD player.

I just saw Alana live (opening for 5 for Fighting...who? ; - ) -just her and her guitar - proving that though her MUSIC may have been put through a greater electronic wringer this time - her voice is unadulteratedly BEAUTIFUL! A throaty angel on earth.

Neither CD will disappoint. For a more bluesy/folk/alt rock feel buy the first (Blame It on Me), for a more mainstream sensibility buy this one. Either way, discover this jewel of a vocalist/singer/songwriter growing, improving and experimenting on each successive release. Let's hope we won't have to wait so long for her next album!

5.0 out of 5 stars NSR:NO SKIPPING REQUIRED, April 22, 2002
This review is from: Fortune Cookies (Audio CD)
I was so awed by Alana Davis' 1997 debut,"Blame It On Me" that I was nearly tripping myself to get her 2001 followup "Fortune Cookies".

That was the right choice too because "Fortune Cookies" achieves a rare goal:it surpasses the debut-and "Blame It On Me" wasn't a simple album to followup too.

Alana's husky,free-sprited voice is even more soulful and sultier
on "Fortune cookies" and all eleven tracks are treasures.Filler-free.From the poigant "Save The Day" to the funky spunk of the Neptunes-produced "Bye Bye"(one of my favorites on here),it's no limitations...Others standouts include a simply "blazin'" rendition of Whodini's classic "Friends",a sincere reworking of the Stephan Jenkins'-penned "I Want You",the reggae-influnced "Got This Far",the misty "I Don't Care(Lonesome Road",
and,well,the whole thing.

This CD did it,I am now an offical Alana Davis fan."Fortune Cookies" is an honest,beautiful,and complex album THAT you can enjoy without touching the trusty SKIP button.

P.S.:If you don't know it yet,Alana is the person singing in that American Express commerical...

4.0 out of 5 stars Definitely Underrated, October 4, 2002
By 
Paula Jefferson (Ypsilanti, MI United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Fortune Cookies (Audio CD)
I've loved this CD since it was released last year. It's a great follow-up to her debut. I'm not sold on every track, but for the most part "Fortune Cookie" is a solid release with my favorite tracks being "Save The Day" and everything from track 7 to the end of the disc.
