Free Music Notes for Mandy Moore
Free Music Review: More mature with improved vocals, yet not super strong
Hit: 3 Stars
I'll start off by saying that I'm a big fan of pop and I like all of the major U.S. pop singers/groups from 1997-2001. I even own at least the debut albums of Mandy, Jessica, Christina, and Britney, and I like all of them. And I think all of them have some type of talent or charisma (or both).
I must say that from what I heard of this album, I feel it was a step in the right direction for Mandy. Sure, she had a few catchy songs on the So Real album in terms of beats and lyrics, but her vocals weren't too good, and overall, the album was a little bit on the too cutesy side. After she released the "I Wanna Be With You" song, there was a major change in her vocals, in which she showed she had a nice quality to her voice, and I think it made people notice more that she was talented. She continued with the new style of singing on this album, and it helps to make this album a breath of fresh air compared to So Real. In fact, I must say that out of the four major young pop divas here in the U.S., Mandy is the only one who I feel has actually improved her vocals, while the others have gotten slightly worse or way worse, in my opinion.
However, I feel that though this album had better vocals and a more mature style that reflected Mandy growing as a person and an artist, it still suffers from something So Real did, and that is a lack of strong songs. I think that on a whole, the Mandy Moore album is more listenable, so I would call this album an improvement over So Real, but there are only a few standouts, and the rest of the songs are lukewarm and sort of dull to me. I believe she released the best songs ("In My Pocket," "Crush," "Cry"), but several of the other songs weren't enough to hold my attention.
For fans who prefer more "pure pop" or R&B tinged pop that some of the other pop stars are doing, this album might not be for you, because it's more rock influenced (think Michelle Branch, Avril, Ashlee, etc). I just think Mandy needs to get more strong songs for the whole album overall the next time she releases an album, and I think she'll be fine. Had this album even come out a year later (in 2002), I think it could have been more successful because other pop-rock artists such as Michelle Branch and Avril Lavigne were starting the young-female-pop-with-a-rock-edge movement in music, and I think Mandy could have fit right in. Best of luck in the future Mandy.
Mandy Moore Poster
These days there are more pop tarts on the charts than on the grocery shelves, and it's awfully hard to tell the kewpie pies apart. Granted Mandy Moore isn't exactly heading into Bj?rk territory, but at least the 16-year-old is attempting to stake her own space. Jon Secada and Emilio Estefan Jr. supply Moore with percussive cuts like the single "In My Pocket" which is laced with a sinewy Middle Eastern sound. Moore also offers up jangly, breathy cuts like the heartfelt "17" which suit her cotton-candy vocals nicely. This isn't great art, but it is enjoyable, disposable pop, and that ain't shabby. --Amy LindenPop Music CDs
