- I'm A Slave 4 U - It's a great dance track. This song
will forever remind me of the night that my friends Kate and Lorrie
kept rewinding and kept rewinding the Rosie performance just to learn
the dance. HeHe. All worth it, all worth it.
- Overprotected - Good message and I think very
autobiographical. "I need time, I need joy, I need space, I
need....me" Isn't this what everybody wants? Although
she's grown into her lyrics, I think everyone can relate. At
least a little.
- Lonely - Been there, done that, huh? Yeah, so has she
so don't mess with her. Ya listening, Justin?
- I'm Not A Girl, Not Yet A Woman - Sweet ballad. I think
it might be the theme song of a lot of girls. Most of us want to
grow up fast, then once we get there, we want to go back. Call
it typical of a woman to change her mind!
- Boys - My very favorite track! I don't know what it is
about it, but it just makes my want to get up, dance and belt it out
like there's no tomorrow!! When I'm asked what my favorite track
is, I always say "I Like Boys!" They look at me
strangely, but then they get it. ;-) "Can't live with
'em, Can't live without 'em!" Amen sister!
- Anticipating - It's that song on the album that my friends
and I will BLAST in the car. I can tell already. Britney
is a permanent staple in my car, this is just another song to add to
the playlist.
- I Love Rock N' Roll - All I think of when I hear this song is
my friend, Lorrie. We were singing it walking up and down the
streets of State college three days before the album release. So
glad someone finally remade this song. Very cool, very cool.
- Cinderella - Yet another girl power song. Go
figure. Anyway, he treated her bad, he got the boot. Good
call.
- Let Me Be - I loved this song on the "On The Line"
soundtrack, so naturally I still like it. I love power anthems
that put girls in charge of their own lives. Definitely the
growing trend in pop, and gratefully accepted.
- Bombastic Love - What a happy song!! It's romantic to a
sense of being idealistic, and that is definitely stomach-able.
If only every relationship could be like that.
- That's Where You Take Me - Nice paced song. Sweet and
romantic, but again, not to the point where you want to induce
vomiting. I think a lot of these songs just make you feel
good. Either about what you got, or in this case, what you want.
- What It's Like To Be Me - I think deep down she sends that
message that we have NO idea what her life is like, and how
true. I mean, that's not how the song is written, but when you
first heard the title, be honest...that what you thought it'd be
about. Anyway, we all know Justin and Wade can write so I'm not
really surprised about the lyrical quality. She and Justin are
right though, these ARE some of her best vocals. Having Justin
on background (vocals) doesn't hurt the quality of the song either
though. :-)

Overall, I love it. I think it's lyrically
mature, and she was in definet need of that growth. I like her
message of positive outlooks on the person that you are. Her
hands-on activity in the CD shows in the pride she takes in it. You
can tell she's proud of it, and that's enough in the end. |
