August 17, 200816 yr Not karaoke songs sung by three models over a pre-recorded track they bought from Xenomania. 5 models i think you mean. The Babes actually write most of their material -_-
August 17, 200816 yr Kelly Clarkson's My December has sold over 2,000,000 worldwide. You mean, 2 million overshipped copies??? Obviously after coming from a massive blockbuster, record stores thought the she would have conquered enough "fans" to sell at least 1/6 of what the previous album did, no matter how poor the promotion and the quality of the music itself were. But they were fooled, and most of the shipped copies must be left in the shelves... :unsure: :unsure: The problem with Kelly is that in her last album she tried to write and be involved in the music as much as she could. This time around she will be smarter and pay someone else to do that job. <_<
August 17, 200816 yr No, she's co-writing this one too. She's wrote and produced a song with her brother and that's on this album. Don't keep going on like you know everything, because you don't.

It is definately one of the most under rated albums of the past 2 or 3 years. Maybe she should have listened to Clive a bit more but thats what i LOVE about Kelly she's willing to take risks and put them to the test, unlike Dido who plays it 'Safe' and fair play to her, coz it works. Dunno bout you but i'm more interested in the artists who 'Mix it up' a bit.
August 18, 200816 yr Author Sorry, but 'My December' is awful. Never have a listened to an album with such poor production. -_- Okay, the lyrics are all "amazing" and that as everyone likes to point out, but I listen to the music, not her lyrics. The songs sound like the drums are being played on tin cans, and that the guitars are plastic food boxes with elastic bounds round them. Maybe she should try sticking to producers that can actually book her into a decent STUDIO with decent musical equipment + production. She could still write the songs herself. :lol:

I dunno but there's just something about the album that i LOVE and i just dont know what it is TBH. It took a while to grow (whereas Breakaway was Instant) on me though. But now I think i could put it in my Top 20 albums :heart: (Maybe 10)
August 18, 200816 yr Surely we should be encouraging artists to become more involved in their music, as opposed to discouraging? Why not give recognition to artists that already make their music, instead of "encouraging" mainstream artist to go making their music??? Well, Kelly might be writing stuff but it probably going to be just fillers, or maybe she´s just doing the lyrics, which anyone without much music knowledge can do - specially because pop lyrics like her are very common sense, easy to make. But I don´t have any doubt that, to sell this album, her label will rely on melody and production by some big name of the industry, just like she did with Since U Been Gone and her other hits. She´s not the type of artist with credibility to sell on her songwriting skills alone - she proved with the flop of the last album. She needs a hit, done by professional hitmakers, like Since U Been Gone...

Dunno bout you but i'm more interested in the artists who 'Mix it up' a bit. Taking risks??? And that´s why after the disaster that her last album was, she is changing direction 180º??? So you think her direction change has nothing to do with the commercial bomb of the album???? Lol.... Kelly Clarkson "mix it up"? Please. Listen to Breakaway, Since U Been Gone, Because Of You, and her other hits. It´s nothing that Avril lavigne, Pink, Miley Cirus, Hilary Duff and thousands of other bright-eyed teenage blondes of the USA haven´t done 1000 times in the past...
August 18, 200816 yr I meant different from her previous stuff. Shes experimenting to see what works and what doesn't for HER. 'Breakaway' totally different from 'Thankful' and 'My December' being different (Bar a COUPLE of tracks) from 'Breakaway'.
