Mandy Moore

I Wanna Be With You

A Great Pop Record

Review Score:

(10/10)
This has definitely got to be one of my most treasured albums. I enjoy nearly every track on it & I feel that this CD is full of good pop tracks. Miss Moore's second U.S. single, "I Wanna Be With You", was a smash hit. Its lyrics are beautiful & they really touch the heart. Moore's vocals are angelic, breathy, & passionate. The music itself is wavy, relaxing, gentle, tender, heavenly; etc. A beautiful love ballad & one of the best songs in the world. Very radio-friendly. This particular CD is a Special Edtion of the platinum-certified MM debut record, "So Real", & contains four tracks from it: "Lock Me In Your Heart", "Walk Me Home" (Moore's third American single), "I Like It", & the Australian hit, "So Real". Three remixed Moore singles as well: "Candy" (Wade Robson Remix), "So Real" (Wade Robson Remix), & "I Wanna Be With You (Soul Solution Remix). The five newer songs on here (including "I Wanna Be With You") are all amazing! They're so incredible. It's a shame that none of the other four were released to radio-play. "Everything My Heart Desires" is a great dance-pop track & can put nearly anyone in a feel-good mood. Moore's voice sounds innocent-like; yet the slightest bit smokey because of some of her lower-keyed & funky vocals. "Want You Back" is a ballad most teenagers & young adults can relate to. It's about breaking up with someone & the regret & sorrow that follows afterwords. Wondering if your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend still has love feelings for you. "The Way To My Heart" completely blew myself away when I first listened to the entire track. I adore how the tune of the song changes into more of a positive & glad one towards the end of it. Its words are rather corny...yet they speak of truth when it comes to loving someone. Mandy sings this awesomely. Oh my goodness..."Your Face" is the eleventh track on the disc & Moore has received a massive amount of good critical discussion involving the powerful vocal range delivered here. "Your Face" is quite romantic with its sentences drenched in purity & Mandy, once more, uses the angel whispers within her extraordinary talent. Magnificant song! The best songs from this fantastic love album are "I Wanna Be With You", "Everything My Heart Desires", "Want You Back, "The Way To My Heart", "So Real" (Wade Robson Remix), "Walk Me Home", "I Like It", "So Real", & "Your Face".

Most certainly, this CD is a better music offering than the CD, "So Real". It's even greater than Moore's official sophomore self-titled CD. The gold-selling & Middle-Eastern-oriented, "Mandy Moore". And believe me...that's awfully difficult to beat.

"I Wanna Be With You" (Special Edition) featuring the smash, "I Wanna Be With You", & the three revamped singles, "I Wanna Be With You (Soul Solution Remix), "Candy" (Wade Robson Remix), & "So Real" (Wade Robson Remix).
