"Yolanda I fell in love with her ministry in Ft Worth, when she performed at the convention center for the Martin Luther King Holiday. I recently saw her at Six Flags and she ministered to each every one of us. I have to have her albums because she has the songs that not only make you dance, but they minister to you as well. May God continue to bless you in your ministry."

"Just when you think Yolanda has done her best she gives you more. Yolanda justs get better and better! This CD is abosolutly wonderful.If you haven't accepted Christ into your life listening to "Come to Me" will make you want to accept him right where you are. "In His Presense" lets you know that you are never without him. This CD will uplift you and bring joy to heart no matter what you are going through. You will stop right in the middle of what you are doing to give the Lord Praise.Every track has a divine message.IT IS A MUST HAVE!!!!!!"
Yolanda's best material to date

"We all know Yolanda's voice is beyond comparison, and for the most part, all her albums contain top-notch material. But "Songs From The Heart" is her masterpiece. Every single song from beginning to end seems tailored to Yolanda, something that cannot be said of some of her earlier efforts.
This album fully realizes Yolanda's passion for gospel with heavy jazz overtones, and she takes full control of every song. Her voice is in top shape on this collection, with all of the various shadings and astounding range that characterize her work (although her absolute best singing can be found on the "Save The World" album). Still, believe the hype: vocally and interpretively, Yolanda's special gifts place her well above most rivals. The production values on this album further enhance the quality of the material.
Since this album was recorded, Yolanda has scored very well with a more R&B flavored sound on "Mountain High, Valley Low," a great album in its own right. She has maintained this more R&B flavored mainstream approach on her successive releases, which are commercially viable but a bit less satisfying overall than her 90's work.
However, nothing captures Yolanda more in her true and natural element than "Songs From The Heart." It's a wise investment, and no contemporary gospel collection is really complete without it. Enjoy."

You know,it's really something when you can HEAR and FEEL the "ANOINTING" through Memorex(recordings)/Real Life!I don't even care for "Contemporary Gospel"(that's just me and I'm not that old either!Gospel has been my preference of music all my life and until now I have never,ever heard nor felt anything like I do from "YO-YO" (I'm up to date a lit'a bit' ha ha)I thank GOD for her Anointing,her Sincerity and the REALIZATION that she brings forth.For it is the GOD in her that she is sharing with us.
