 All-around magnificent!

| Nikka Costa has an amazing voice and creates songs with such emotion! This is an older cd, but a goodie. One that you can listen to all the way through rather than skipping songs that are mediocre. Love her voice, style, and creativity!!! |

 Nikka Costa

| I was looking for her CD, hoping that it will be like the song I loved as I was younger. Nikka Costa as a child singer is more my style than the R&B, soul etc. "First Love", her version of "Through the eyes of Love" and "On my Own" to say the few from 1980 s are more my style than this one. Sorry,Nikka. I am able to appreciate her vocal then than now. |

| I saw her in concert and loved it. I also have all her adult CD's besides Butterfly Rockets and Pearl. The only reason I don't have Pearl is because it is not out yet. I hope you all will listen to Chaka and Janis Joplin with a sexy persona. She has confidence. She deserves it for staying true to herself. |

| the first time it came out...i had heard a couple of songs on a promo copy a friend gave me and i thought she was cool, but kinda forgot about her....i stopped listening to r and b and pop seriously about 2001-2002 and moved on to other genres....my tastes in music has always been eclectic, but i'll take a chance on a singer, regardless of her genre...nikki intrigued me enough to take a gamble on blind faith.... and she was worth it....nikki can belt it....she wrote or co-wrote all the songs and you can listen to it straight through....her uncle was ol blue eyes...and it's apparent nikki's got frank's talent in her dna....the stand out songs are " like a feather," " tug of war," the title track, " hope it felt good " and " corners of my mind," but like i said, you can play this one straight through and it will satisfy...questlove from the roots plays drums on some of the songs and the beats are always hot...mark ronson co-produced this record...he's gone on to bigger and better things...mainly working with amy winehouse.....i wish virgin would've put more money and time behind nikki, because she's worth it....if you are tired of being clear channeled to death by the britneys and mileys of the world,then darlin nikki's your go to girl.... |

Costa Has Got That Something

With a guitar riff that traces straight back to Heartbreaker by the Rolling Stones, Nikka Costa gets out to a fast start on the first track, Like A Feather, and then shows her range as a songwriter/vocalist throughout this excellent CD.
She reaches deep into her soul for real interpretations of R&B, blues and gospel, with a variety of mixes in the production. Though I am not a fan of layered vocals, Costa is able to do an admirable job because of her range of expressions in delivering the parts.
She sings it like she's lived it in Push & Pull and Corners Of My Mind, with Tug Of War and the title track compelling enough to make you stop what you're doing and listen intently.
A dynamite CD likes this one means that the artist has refined the material over a period of years and may struggle to reach the same peak or is starting one of those magical runs of quality releases. Costa has set a solid foundation and Everybody Got Their Something will stand on its own no matter what the future brings.
