For a CD with a lot of soft songs on it--"Scarborough Fair," "Over the Rainbow," "You Are My Sunshine"--Into White sends a loud message, that being: when you're as important an artist as Carly Simon, you can pretty much sing what you want, which accounts for this disc's genre confusion. Part kids' record, part under-the-covers project, Into White feels a little like it went for a toss in the Simon residence's salad spinner; "Oh! Susanna," which has rarely sounded sweeter, is followed by a beautiful reading of the Beatles' poetic "Blackbird," which segues into a family sing-along to ex-husband James Taylor's classic "You Can Close Your Eyes" (son and daughter Ben and Sally Taylor pitch in on harmonies). Deciding whether to play it on the way to morning kindergarten or during brunch for your mellow sweetheart, then, can be brutal. But the choice to buy it or bypass it shouldn't be. Simon, vocally sure-footed as ever, wicks the warmth out of every last track and directs it with pinpoint precision to her listeners--nobody does music as comfort food better. Perhaps nobody knows how to pluck from her own catalog better, either: closing this artful jumble of a late-career disc is the abominably under-appreciated but gorgeous "Love of My Life," from the largely forgotten 1992 film This is My Life. --Tammy La Gorce Into Green with Carly More from Carly Simon

 A Carly Simon dream album. February 21, 2008

This has become one of my favorite albums when I want to listen to something soft and lovely. It complements a relaxed mood or creates one. I agree with the New York Times reviewer who called this album "luminous."

I love listening to this cd when I am winding down after a long night at work. The baby likes it to.
 A horrible disappointment August 26, 2007

Fortunately, I took advantage of auditioning the public library's copy of this before I placed an order for it. I looked forward to listening to this CD after having really enjoyed her earlier "Moonlight Serenade" CD. My first impression of this was that it was for playing in a baby's nursery. Perhaps that was the point, but the library's copy didn't have any of the liner notes to offer any explanation of the song choices. I didn't find anything here that I even found remotely interesting. Only recommended for ages 3 and under.
One of my all time favorites August 23, 2007

I listen to this CD almost every night as I put my infant daughter to bed. Carly's voice is so soft and amazing, that even songs like O' Susanna become lullabies, and I love singing along to "you are the love of my life" as my daughter drifts asleep... Perhaps I will never get tired of this one...
