Mandy Moore

Mandy finally shows what a true talent she really is.

Review Score:

(10/10)
Wow!!! I must admit that I wasn't impressed with Mandy's first album (I mean `I wanna be with you' as `so real' was not released here in England), I loved Candy and So Real but found the rest to be average album fillers. Then I bought this and I was blown away. First track `In my Pocket' has a real eastern feel to it and maybe was too much of a swing away from pop for a lot of her target audience, and didn't do too well in the US pop charts. I loved it, and I would say that it is better than anything from the last album, it's catchy, funky, upbeat - ironically everything a great pop song should be. There are many stand-out tracks on this album, in particular `Cry' and `Yo-Yo'. Cry is a gorgeous love song and Mandy has the chance to show that as well as a pretty face she has a fantastic voice, I love this song! `Yo-Yo' I thought would be average, due to the uninspiring name but is another fantastic upbeat song, great tune, great vocals.

My ratings for each song: `In my pocket' 10/10, `You remind me' 6/10, `Saturate Me' 9/10, `One sided love' 7/10, `17' 8/10, `Cry' 10/10, `Crush' 9/10, `Only took a minute' 7/10, `Turn the clock around' 8/10, `Yo Yo' 10/10, `From loving you' 8/10, `Split Chick' 7/10, `When I talk to you' 6/10

I don't know if this will ever get released in UK but I hope it does so the rest of Britain can see what it's missing out on. If you like Mandy's first album you will LOVE this, the songs are much better and she's taken a more original direction. I can't stop listening to it, I'm hooked!!!
