Free Music Notes for Don't Forget
Free Music Review: Did You Forget?
Hit: 5 Stars
I was so excited about this album on the day of release all I wanted to do that day was get myself a copy.
The album started out really nicely with the rock vibe of "La La Land". It's a very fun song. I'm a huge fan of Demi's vocals and the rhythms.
Demi has said she asked the Jonas brothers for help on writing lyrics because her songs are too "dark". I have to disagree, but the only song only Demi wrote herself on the album is "Trainwreck" which has really nice lyrics. It reminds me very much of her demos ("Trash" "Open" "Stronger" and "Shadow"). It's nice to hear a song like this one. It actually makes me think of the past and other songs' rhythms.
"Party" is my disappointment. I first gave it two stars, but then I listened to it as I was listening to the album on my media player and I decided to give it three stars. It's kind of a very southern type of song with pointless lyrics. The lyrics are what made me upset. The end of the song says,"Let's do that again!" I say,"No thank you."
"On the Line" is very beautiful. I'd like it better though if Nicholas Jonas hadn't taken a part in singing the second verse with Demi. His vocals are nice for his own music, but he made the song not so special. Other than that, this is a great song.
"Did you forget?....that I was even alive" my favorite song from all 11 tracks has to be "Don't Forget". When I first read the lyrics I felt like crying. I like how Demi let out her feelings and made this song very emotional. A tip before first listening to this track: rad the lyrics first, the complete lyrics.
"Gonna Get Caught". The title makes you think, and then you listen to it and realize it's a much better song than it seemed. Once again, a wondrous rhythm.
A song dedicated to her best friend, very caring of her. "Two World's Collide" reminds me of Disney songs. It could be one of those music videos with footage of the musician and of a Disney movie. Nice song, but my favorite part is the short "but you've given me strength to find hope" you may have heard on 'Get in Tune with Demi lovato' on Disney Channel.
The two songs Demi didn't take a part in writing. "The Middle" reminds me of a Hilary Diff song. "I like it!" It's one of the songs closer to Rock than Pop. "Until You're Mine". Ah! I love this one! It reminds me of my past, which is the best compliment I can ever give something.
A last, the final song, "Believe In Me". It talks about being yourself, like "La La Land", but in a different way. The story gets positive at the end as it begins talking of how "I'm losing myself". This song makes me feel at ease. It truly is "amazing what you can hide just by putting on a smile".
"Everyone's perfect in unusual ways."
Free Music Review: Demi Lovato is a powerhouse.
Hit: 5 Stars
I'll just come straight out and say that I'm a tried and true Jonas Brothers fan. I'm absolutely, positively in love with their music. I'm one of those screaming teenage girls that stands out in the summer heat, rain, or snow to see them play; the ones on TV that people laugh at because of their intense dedication. I've seen them six times, and three of those times, a 16 year old girl named Demi Lovato opened. Going to my first Burning Up show, I'll have to admit I was a bit skeptical of her. I had seen her in Camp Rock only a few days before (which I'll admit wasn't the greatest) and I didn't really know what to expect. I wondered what exactly she was going to sing besides her songs from Camp Rock. I thought she was going to be just another sickly sweet, sugar tart popstar that Disney concoted in their popstar machine. Boy, was I wrong. When she came out on stage, her stage presence and powerful music were endearing. She strutted around the stage singing her rock driven compositions with the poise and grace of someone who had been doing it for years. A couple months later, her album came out. I bought it the day it came out and was immediately hooked.
Demi Lovato may be sweet, but her songs are more driven by her individual human emotions than any other of her counterparts right now (Miley Cyrus, The Cheetah Girls, etc.). She's not afraid to talk about being heartbroken and talk about human relationships. While some of her songs are more on the pop side (probably to appease Disney), the rock edge is undeniable on most tracks. Her songs are universal. Pre-teens will love them and older people can relate to them. It's almost impossible to pick your favorite track off this album. It's one of those rare ones that you can listen to all the way through and not be bored. I love Demi.
Free Music Review: Former Side-Kick Turned Songstress
Hit: 5 Stars
Former side-kick turned songstress, Demi Lovato started her Disney channel career as nothing more then Salina Gomez's best friend for life; but thanks to the success of camp rock and a collaboration with the Jonas Brothers this 16-year-old is on her way to being the next big princess of pop.
This might come as a shock-and-awe to fans of Disney's current pop maven Miley Cyrus, but truth be told Demi bolts out catchy, youth inspired tunes better then her Hannah Montana counter part and as an added bonus she dose all this without the country twang.
The album opens with a sugar and spice coated gum drop entitled "La La Land," and continues to amaze with rock induced "Trainwreck," which propels Demi's vocals into mysterious quasi-alt territory. Jonas sibs Nick and Joe (who co-wrote the album with Demi) croon on, "On the Line," giving the song that Camp Rock final jam appeal. While bouncy, well paced, boy inspired songs such as "Don't forget," (the song that shares the albums title), "Gonna Get Caught," and "The Middle," have the potential to bandage broken hearts of tween girls everywhere. And if that's not enough the finale song "Believe In Me," brings the album home with an inspirational ballad on just being yourself at the end of the day that will reassure the Mitchie Torres in all of us.
So in short if you're a Miley fan you'll love or hate Demi even more because "Don't Forget," is a bubblegum contender guaranteed to dethrone any similar sounding musical mogul, who is delusional enough in thinking that she still has a chance in the Magic Kingdom of holding on to her tween-pop-star crown and microphone scepter.
Free Music Review: Simply Amazing.
Hit: 5 Stars
I don't think anyone really expected much of this 16 year old girl when they heard she was going to be side by side with the Jonas Brothers for the huge Disney success, Camp Rock. Boy, were those people proven wrong.
Quite personally, I've found most Disney stars entertaining, but never vocally talented. Demi took the stereotype of Disney stars and literally smashed it.
With her extremely mature debut album, Demi Lovato has exemplified that talent runs in all ages. Even more impressive? She co-wrote most of the album, except for two, "Until You're Mine" and "The Middle".
Although most of the tracks were co-written with teen bombshells Jonas Brothers, one of the most ear pleasing tracks is one she wrote by herself entitled "Trainwreck". All the uptempo songs have a unique sense of fun, and each ballad is filled with heartfelt and personal lyrics. In the title track, "Don't Forget", you can cut the emotional tension with a knife.
The boys also come in for a great duet, which pretty much laid out every teenage breakup in a matter of 3 minutes and 26 seconds.
My personal favorites? Trainwreck, La La Land, On The Line, and Until You're Mine. =]
I suggest you try this album out, especially if you're a Disney fan. It will definitely redefine how you view "Disney stars".
Free Music Review: Yeah, I know what you're thinking...
Hit: 5 Stars
I know. Another Disney star, most likely subject to the demands and whims of a cookie-cutter producer who wants an attractive teenager squeeling along to a series of over produced computerized dance beats serving as a backdrop to a processed voiceover,just another Flavor of the month only to be forgotten next year? WRONG. Guess again. This cd is KILLER. It rocks along to live instruments, Demi has a terrific voice, and it is NOT a cd that you will listen to once, and shelve. She co-wrote the songs with the Jonas Brothers(again, I know..I was suspicious when I heard this too). But don't let any of this deter you. Not only will you be pleasantly surprised with the aggressive catchy songs and powerful production, YOU WILL LOVE IT. To think that this is the girls debut release. Can't wait for the next one! Standouts include La La Land, Get Back, Don't Forget, Trainwreck. Don't let this one pass you by. Pick it up!
