Time to REMEMBER a classic pop album :o

 

http://blog.funkygog.de/wp-content/uploads/2006/12/kelly-osbourne-sleeping-in-the-nothing-cover-front.jpg

 

I'm not even sure if many people on here have heard the album but most will be familiar with One Word...

 

09.5 One Word

08.5 Uh Oh

07.5 Redlight

09.5 Secret Lover

08.0 I Can't Wait

09.0 Edge Of Your Atmosphere

08.5 Suburbia

10.0 Don't Touch Me While I'm Sleeping

07.5 Save Me

07.0 Entropy

 

I'd say the three I scored below 8 are filler but being only 10 tracks there's no need to skip anything; short and sweet. Linda Perry is quite hit and miss as a producer but she absolutely nailed this, producing and writing or co-writing every song. 'Dont Touch Me...' is frigging brilliant. Some of the lyrics make me laugh so hard:

 

So don't touch me while I'm sleepin' babe

I'll just wake up and break your neck!

 

If you could imagine the f-cking look on my face

When I finally realised I was the victim of date rape!

I went straight to his work

And shoved his face in the wall

I hope you had a good time motherf-cker

Now it's time to say goodbye to your balls!

 

The moral of the story

To make myself clear

Is that all your rapist assholes better run with fear

I would think twice before your next date

Or you'll just end up someone's b-tch in cell block 8!

 

Properly brilliant song :wub: Secret Lover is easily the catchiest thing on there and should've been the second single instead of the kind of bland Redlight... perhaps then this great album would've been given a chance. Please somebody appreciate it with me :( :heehee:

I didnt buy the album for some strange reason. But obviosuly One Word was one of the highlights of 2005 (and its also my best result in BJSC so far), such a fab song.

 

Guess what i'll be downloading tomorrow though!

One Word 10/10

Uh Oh 8/10

Redlight 7.5/10

Secret Lover 9/10

I Can't Wait 8.5/10

Edge Of Your Atmosphere 9/10

Suburbia 8.5/10

Don't Touch Me While I'm Sleeping 9/10

Save Me 8.5/10

Entropy 9/10

One Word (Chris Cox Radio Edit) 11/10 :heart:

 

Overall: 8.90

 

Very good album, One Word is one of the best songs ever. I also like more Chris Cox Mix.

I loved One Word until I found out it was a Visage cover/sample...the original $h!ts all over Osbourne.
I would say that Kelly vocally proves herself to be far less offensive, yet the songs in her album have been well-tailored to her strengths.
