I saw Tatyana live twice, and thought she was amazing. So of course I had to go out and buy her CD. It was well worth it. "He Loves Me" is smooth & soulful and is one of my favorite tracks. "If I Ever Love Again" is very emotional and beautifully sung, and you can hear why everyone is comparing her to Janet Jackson if you listen to "Kiss The Sky" and can also hear Shawn Stockman's sweet voice also. Get this album, it is so great!

Seven years have passed since the release of Kiss the Sky and I am very impressed still. Comparing this to artists of today like Ashanti, Tatyana really impresses me with her debut attempt. Sure the subject matter may be simple, but it's the delivery that pushes the album to me. I particularly love the songs "Boy You Knock Me Out" (anyone who samples Bobby Caldwell's "What You Won't Do For Love" and has Kelly Price on backup vocals and Will's rap is AMAZING in my book), "Daydreamin'," "Everytime" (I LOOOOOVE the Cutfather & Joe Edit though as well), "Kiss the Sky" (beautiful ballad) and "Through Life Alone" (very smooth delivery....like a soft rain). I didn't get this album when it first dropped, but I recall FALLING IN LOVE with "BYKMO" and holding on to that love seven years later. Today, I am still in love with "BYKMO" and I'm falling in love with and appreciating "Kiss the Sky" all over again....especially in the midst of today's crap artists like Jessica Simpson, Gwen Stefani, Beyonce's Chillun, and Ashanti who believe ho'ing it out is the way to selling a song to an audience. This is an album for all of those who like it simple and not overdone. A simple and directly innocent love ballad is just enough for romance, not some Cater 2 U crap. Tatyana nails it for me. Kudos to you Tati.

I remember this album when I was in the 6th grade. I played this album out. This album is a languid journey to the heart and soul of modern R&B,a mellow fusion of up-to-the-minute beats and grooves accompained by heartfelt ballads. Each song tells emotional tales of young love,and speaks of the steep highs and deep lows of the journey as felt through that intense perspective,where a broken heart can quite feel like the end of the world. With this album, she had soared enough to do with her talent. This album should have been promoted more. Remember,this was 1998.

Even years after it was released this is still one of my favourite albums. It never grows old. Its a fantastic album for any R'n'B fan. It is worth buying!

Although I brought the cd, back in the day. I still think that the cd is very good. I mean it has fast some and some you can slow jam to. It's rare you find an cd that is worth buying, much less write a review about several YEARS after the release. I hope that she comes out with an new cd, i'll be some thing that I watch out for. My 2 favorite song on the cd where: Boy you knock me out, and Kiss the Sky.

I'm not a huge R&B fan but when I heard Daydreamin', I had to go out and buy this album. When I did, I fell in love with it! Her voice really catches my attention more than any others. Kiss the Sky is definately one of the best CD's I own. Tatyana, when are you coming out with another album????

Tatyana may not be an R&B dance queen like Janet Jackson or possess the vocal talents of Aretha, but hey, this CD is just so damn sweet! She has an angelic voice that is complements each track in a wonderful fashion and the infectious pop hooks just keep you coming back for more. It's one of those CDs you listen to driving down the highway after a hard day at work or on the weekends when you're with your friends and the sun is out. It's just a real happy, joyous type of CD. Just smile. Lighthearted fun.

Tatyana is very very talented! O.K.it's through that the cd ain't perfect, but give the girl a break. It's only her first album. There should be more songs like "boy you knock me" out on it, but all the songs are great. She's got a beautiful voice and she really feels the song. I love all the songs, but "yesterday" is my favorite. I know people compair her with Brandy and Monica, but so what? I'm a big Brandy fan and I don't mind that they look a like, because that's the music I like. But you have to admit that their voices are very different! If you love Brandy, buy this album!

I'm from the Gambia in West Africa. We all know you guys we are big,big fans. But it's a pity you all don't know that. I am a pure african and love her songs. My best song amongst her songs is 'Boy You Knock Me Out'.I just wish i could see her live performing. WOW!

For her debut album this is nice..I got this CD when it first came out despite the fact that I hated the single that was initially released..Boy You Knock Me Out...that song irked me..It came out right after Lord's over played single came out that it sampled..I still think this cd was hot though..All together..I love the ballads...I would buy it again if that made sense..I hope she is given a chance to come out with another cd, or that she even wants that.
