"An album that could have just as well been titled The Two Sides of Patty Waters, divided between seven short, almost minimal, whispery piano ballads and the 13-minute outburst of "Black Is the Color of My True Love's Hair," in which Waters unveils her arsenal of vocal improvisations. Building from haunting, barely audible moans to angst-ridden bleats, it is the performance that established her as a vocal innovator, albeit one that was too edgy for most listeners".

"Some may be quick to condemn the record. The thirteen-minute track repeats the word "black" over and over again in a variety of ways, while a trio thrashes through some ESP-style free jazz. But it's a mistake to dismiss Sings, because a potent beauty lies inside this record. Waters certainly proves herself a strong composer and visionary vocalist whose work was thirty years ahead of its time. The pain encapsulated in this record, along with its avant-garde leanings, would find a suitable place along some of today's underground bands and their fans. It is time for a generation of music fans to (re)discover the magic of Patty Waters and give her the praise she has so long deserved".
