K, ratey.

 

10 - 'Promise This' - I really don't care what anyone else says... I still love this and it's by far and away one of my favourite songs of 2010. Deserves its success and popularity, despite pailing in comparison to (the obviously superior) 'Fight for This Love'.

07 - 'Yeah Yeah' ft. Travie McCoy - Ever so slightly disappointed with this. The potential is there, but it's a bit cheap-sounding; from the similar backing track of 'Boy Like You' to Cheryl's vocals. When I first heard this, I was actually mortified as to whether the rest of the album would be like it!

09 - 'Live Tonight' - Infectious. Oh-so similar to '3 Words', but it completely works at the same time! I couldn't see it being a massive success as a single though, so I'll just keep it to myself.

10 - 'The Flood' - Beautiful. Love every single thing about it! I wasn't that keen on first listen, especially after the two ballads from the '3 Words' era were quite disappointing, but this grew and grew and grew and it's another of my favourite songs of 2010 so far!

08 - 'Amnesia' - I'm surprised this is getting so much hate! I love the production (or whatever you call it) on this and it reminds me of 'Happy Hour' (another song that I seemed to be one of the only ones to like!) The chorus is insanely catchy and I reckon this could actually be a decent-sized hit if released.

07 - 'Everyone' ft. Dizzee Rascal - Another one along the lines of 'Live Tonight', except I've not liked Dizzee for a while anyway. Cheryl's chorus is quite nice and quite catchy though, but Dizzee's rap is pretty awful and is basically what he rapped about in Shakira's 'Loca'; he really is getting tedious and tired now.

06 - 'Raindrops' - Bland song on the whole. The repeated 'love' is tedious and it's by far the worst song on the album, I can barely sit through it, let alone write about it!

09 - 'Hummingbird' - Loved this from the beginning. It's nice and sweet and Cheryl's vocals are lovely! The chorus is very catchy aswell, but I couldn't see it successful as a single. It reminds me of 'Heaven', slightly, which I also loved!

08 - 'Better To Lie' ft. August Rigo - A sweet song, with more of Cheryl's lush vocals; but I'm not actually that keen on the song itself. I don't like the featured guest either, whoever the hell he is.

08 - 'Let's Get Down' ft. will.i.am - Love the beats on this throughout the chorus (which just so happens to be oh-so catchy too.) will.i.am becomes added to the pile of pointless features on this album, meaning pretty much all of the guests (bar him being uncredited on 'Live Tonight') are pointless.

08 - 'Happy Tears' - Beautiful chorus and message in it; kind of. I do think it's a filler track though, but it's a good kind of filler! Lovely vocals too.

10 - 'Waiting' - Love this so much! It took a while to grow on me, but now it's one of my favourites. I'm guessing the catchy musical section is the sampled part; which I also love! Great closer to the album.

Average - 8.33

worst album of the year!

Did you actually listen to the album?

Down 2 places to #3 in its second week. Hopefully sales are strong (50k+).

I did and I agree it's the worst album I have heard in its entirity all year. It's not that I have anything against Cheryl even though she's nothing special, but you'd think given a high profile star she is she would be handed actually decent material, it's all so cheap sounding, and the majority sound like rejects.

yes, two times, only because i liked 3 words (song) and this is really bad...

Well, looking at your sig and comments you have a predisposition against her, your opinion could be considered as invalid as the opinions from her stans.

Not really, that was a funny TV moment and I haven't put it in my sig to be malicious against her.

I don't think Aly's sig is against Cheryl at all. If anything it proved she had the "balls" to do it while all the other celebs were stuck to their chairs looking scared. Was a great TV moment, you got to love her for that :wub:

 

Btw, your sig is WAY too long Aly though.

Album down to 12 in midweeks ... She needs to hurry up with the release of 'The Flood' and to PROMOTE this album a lot more. 2 TV performances in 4 weeks is not enough.

7 PROMISE THIS- honestly got bored of this and i am still not bored of FFTL

9 YEAH YEAH- i hope this is a single I love it cant get enough

7 LIVE TONIGHT- not clicked yet

8 THE FLOOD- Growing on me all the time

3 AMNESIA- why?!!

6 EVERYONE- ok

6 RAINDROPS- average

6 HUMMINGBIRD- as above

7 BETTER TO LIE- i cant click with this

8 LETS GET DOWN- I like it it grows alot

8 HAPPY TEARS- Joyful!

9 WAITING- This shouldnt be left till last I love it!!

 

I honestly love Amnesia.

 

Raindrops is by far the worst track on the album.

'Amnesia' is probably one of the worst songs I've ever heard, almost as bad as '3 Words'.

 

'Yeah Yeah' is good though and 'The Flood' is kinda growing...

I checked out the whole album to see what the hype is about Cheryl and I was disappointed too. It's definitely a case of "she can release anything and people still buy it", pretty sure if these songs were recorded by someone else, nobody would bother at all. Especially the song "The Flood", had it been released under someone else's name, it would be a bigger flop than Duffy's latest single.

 

I guess she will continue to release music like this as long as she can and when her fame starts slipping, she can just retire saying something like "I had to quit while still on top!".

Raindrops is by far the worst track on the album.

 

I agree, All that repetition of "Love" is a right pain in the arse and has me reaching for the next button.

I agree ^_^

 

Yeah Yeah is definitely my favourite :wub: so far by her anyway

I love how she is sorta taking more risks with her career, I hope she doesn't feel the need to put out safe songs like "Yeah Yeah" and "Everyone" next as to rectify her top 10 placement thing. I hope she goes for "Waiting", that would be a nice change.

 

I dunno why but I really like "Raindrops", as a ballad I prefer it to "The Flood".
