Posted January 28, 200719 yr Im sure at least some of u would of heard of her, she came 2nd in American Idol last year. Anyway her album is great and u must listen to it: Here is my review: 01 - Love Story - The album opens with a slight jazzy R&B type song, its very good and catchy but far from the best song on the album as it gets rather boring - Rating: 6/10 02 - Over It - I love this song, though the amount of times she says 'im over it' gets repetitive, but the chorus is amazing and its a great catchy song which u dont get bored of - Rating: 9/10 03 - Open Toes - This is the first of the club banga songs, its a hot slice of pop/r&b/electro and it has an excellent beat, though the vocals could be better - Rating: 8/10 04 - Home - This reminds me a bit of a Chirstina Aguilera type song, its a nice slow ballad with good vocals but compared with some of the other ballads its rather limp - Rating: 7/10. 05 - Not Ur Girl - This song is a bit like Beyonce meets Lily Allen but maybe thats just me lol thinking that, its a great pop/r&b/jazzy type song and a grower - Rating: 8/10 06 - Each Other - A nice slow r&b ballad, nice lyrics and a very pleasant sound to it to. The chorus is good but theres something missing and i dont know what - Rating: 7/10 07 - Dangerous - Very overrated this song, probably the worst on the album, however it is still a good song, rather catchy and great beat but rather monotone - Rating: 5/10 08 - Ordinary World - Another ballad here, and this one is a more pop sounding one, great vocals, great song and great lyrics - Rating: 9/10 09 - Do What You Do - My favourite song on the album, its a stunning uptempo catchy r&b/pop club piece which is very catchy, it never really slows down either so its a great song for parties - Rating: 10/10 10 - Better Off Alone - Return of the ballads again here, this is a slow but nice sounding song with good vocals again - Rating: 8/10 11 - Neglected - Another ballad here, its a sad sounding R&B song with a great chorus, its well written and the vocals fit well with the song to, it sounds a bit like Mariah in parts to - Raintg: 9/10 12 - Everywhere I Go - The album finishes with another ballad lol, a pop one and her voice on this sounds very much like Kelly Clarksons, its not the best of songs but a good one to finish with - Rating: 7/10. OVERALL: 7.5/10 - A good album, well worth a listen.

February 2, 200719 yr Umm, I love McPhee! She totally rocked last year, I voted for her. But guess what, it's better to lose on American Idol than win it seems, right? Thanks for the review on her album, I love Dangerous!! You should come over to this cool site I spend time on and review it there too, I'm sure the other members would love that. It's Popteenus.com. Do it:)
February 3, 200719 yr Yup! According to HDD, it's set to debut at #2 with 100K sales!! :yahoo: :cheer: :cheer: :cheer:
