    A richly rewarding album. [Nov 2002, p.114]
  3. Voyage to India is a continuation of India's musical journey, a natural progression, the reflection of an artist's love for her art and its divine connection to life.
  4. It's a record that easily equals her debut, boasting better vocal performances but also better songwriting and accompanying production.
  5. 80
    This disc is much more solid than Acoustic Soul.
  6. Thankfully, Arie keeps the music light and flowing, so even the most self-righteous lines breeze by.
  7. While, at times, Voyage to India seems a bit too preachy, Arie has a way of bringing everything together in a very palatable way.

    I absolutely love this album. Well constructed and thought of. I am massive fan of the form of a song reflecting the content, so when I hear aI absolutely love this album. Well constructed and thought of. I am massive fan of the form of a song reflecting the content, so when I hear a song like Complicated Melody where the melody is so complicated she "almost cannot sing it on key", I will be putting that on replay for a week! The interludes of Growth, Healing and Gratitude really acts as home after really going on a voyage with the track list. My personal favourite would be Slow Down, as I felt that particular song spoke to me at the time I listened to this album and that is extremely rare for me. Truly phenomenal. Full Review »
