Product Description

Amazon.ca

Gatineau, Quebec-based vocalist Eva Avila is far and away the closest that Canadian Idol has ever come to a world-class vocal contender along the lines of Kelly Clarkson. And, Avila's record company is investing in her bankable potential, having solicited the songwriting talents of Chantal Kreviazuk and Cyndi Lauper and composers for Celine Dion and Beyoncé to contribute to Somewhere Else. The disc opens with Avila's first single, the Fergie-esque "I Owe It All to You" which aptly displays the vocal prowess this young artist delivers. "Not So Different" is even more infectious with a South Asian flavour and a funky chorus that evokes Timberlake comparisons. The Kreviazuk-penned "Meant to Fly" is a capably handled inspirational number, while "Should I Fall" shows her ability to excel at straight-up traditional R&B. In such genres, it is easy for a singer to oversing (cramming too many notes in a riff and losing the melody as a result) but Avila is never guilty of that and stays true to her unabashed love of strong, soulful pop. "I Don't Wanna Cry" and "Weak in the Knees" drive that point home. Avila's vocal talents and the disc's timeless melodies deserve to be heard by listeners from a number of different generations. --Denise Sheppard

2.0 out of 5 stars great voice but many generic songs, Mar 21 2008
By D. Campbell (Saskatoon, Saskatchewan Canada) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
As others have noted, Eva Avila has an excellent voice, but most of the songs on the CD are generic and bland. They're a waste of her talent.

5.0 out of 5 stars Go Canada!!, Jan 25 2008
Okay. I'm an American Idol fan. I got into listening & buying Canadian Idol, Australian Idol and UK Pop Idol winner releases. In my opinion - Eva is the best of the bunch! I was VERY surprised at the CD when I listened to it. The songs are upbeat and club worthy - her voice is gritty when needed, pure when needed and just beautiful. I just cant stop listening to "Bittersweet" ... such a great song and beautifully sung. I wish I was able to get CTV here in the States! I'll go out on a limb here and place Eva right behind Kelly Clarkson [USA] and my personal favorite - Will Young [UK]. That actually says a lot! I will anxiously await more from Eva Avila!

5.0 out of 5 stars wow!, Mar 5 2007
i hadn't watched canadian idol much, so i didn't really hear anything from eva. then last week i heard a song "i owe it all to you", and asked my coworker, who she was. later that week, i bought it.

i usually don't buy cds, without hearing it first, but i took a risk anyways. it was so worth it! eva's voice is amazing. there has been no good canadian music in a while, and this is where it ends.

awesome music, well worth the money!

2.0 out of 5 stars What Happened?
I found this cd was overdone with the drumming, beating and moaning. I really wanted to hear the style of music that I voted for her on Canadian Idol. Read more

1.0 out of 5 stars Don't waste your money
Eva's singing voice is excellent, and her tone is good, but even these factors can not raise the poor quality of these songs and production to an acceptable level.

This girl has major talent and great vocal instinct. But as with many of the Idol winners, the label rushes out a quick disc in hopes of cashing in while the artist is still... Read more
