"If Top-40 radio reflected the Internet's global community instead of being centered around American pop culture, the music would sound like that of Sarah Ingraham." Adam Harrington, "Whisperin & Hollerin Reviews"
"Sarah Ingraham reminds me of Ofra Haza.. that ethereal, angelic sound...except that she is singing in a language that I do understand. Bolo Ta Ra Ra is good enough to be in a Bollywood picture and "Free at Last" utilizes a sultry R&B vocal with blissful Europop." Kyrby Raine, "Shotgun Reviews"
