Ok, so I'm 32 and have NO KIDS, yet I bought this album, much to the surprise of my husband. I admit I've watched my fair share of Hannah Montana episodes and I even have a Hannah Montana ringtone. Do I get flack about this from my oh-so-grown-up friends? You bet. Do I care? Not really. The truth is Miley Cyrus, dressed up as Hannah Montana or in her own persona, is adorable. She exudes a charm that has preteen girls and their moms alike captivated. She's somehow managed to suck me in, as well. I can't explain it, but I had to purchase this CD the day it was released.
Having already been hooked on 7 Things I was a little disappointed that none of the other tracks have quite the same infectiousness of her lead single. But that's not to say there isn't plenty worth listening to. The title track, Breakout, comes closest to 7 Things in energy and attitude and made me relive my high school days, longing for the freedom that only 3:30 knew. Miley is at her best here, embracing her youth and singing about what she should know well. Several of the other tracks, notably Full Circle and Bottom of the Ocean, showed an unexpected maturity - so much so that I was suprised to see her name amongst the writing credits. However, because of this maturity they felt a little disjointed. How could a 15 year old have anything worthwhile to say about heartbreak, after all? But you just have to remove yourself from the knowledge that this girl is so young and a product of Disney. Try telling yourself that this is a brand new artist and you know nothing about her. It's easy to believe that this singer, with her deep voice, heartfelt vocals and expereienced vocal interpretation, is appropriate for the adult contemporary audience. Sure, there is a notable lack of sexual undertones and profanity common in this genre, but I for one felt somewhat refreshed by that. I don't need to hear the F-word to know I'm a grown-up. Nor is my adult status challenged by the success of this teenage phenomenon.
I'm not sure why some haters out there feel the need to scrutinize everything this young lady does. The truth is she is far more talented musically than Britney, Hillary or many of the other teenbots that have graced us over the past decade. Give the girl a chance to learn and grow into the artist she has the potential to become. In the meantime, accept her music for what it is - fun, youthful but with enough substance to listen to without kids in the car.
Free Music Review: An Unsurprised Surprise from Cyrus
Hit: 4 Stars
After so many Miley Cyrus scandals online, you must wonder what her second, but first only Miley album will sound like.
As I listened to the first track, "Breakout", no excitement filled the air. Despite the cheesy lyrics at times, I've come to enjoy this song. It's fun if you feel like a kid. Although she mentions spending time with her friends three times, the last time it makes you want to sing along. "Fly On The Wall" is worse, making both verses basically about her friends. But it's a fun song and you might be surprised what it's about when you first hear.
"Wake Up America", one of the six songs she wrote and Antonina Armato, Tim James, and others co-wrote, is a song trying to reach out to people to start taking action to help our planet. The message isn't sent out too well, the chorus is quite childishly written, but after hearing it a couple times, you enjoy it more.
You may feel the two songs she did covers to, "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" and "These Four Walls", were unnecessary. If you are one to fall for almost any pop song, you'll enjoy them. I disliked them at first but after some time, I decided to give them three stars on my media player. "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun" is mostly enjoyable when you're in the car listening to your MP3 player or the radio and dancing along, enjoying the song despite it's false lyrics written by Robert Hazard. "These Four Walls" is one of those songs that has a nice rhythm and lyrics, but Miley starts it out with a rough voice, making it lose a star, and you not want to hear it.
This album talks mostly about love. Young kids who want to hear about other things might not enjoy it as six of the 11 new songs are about love; kids in the young love stage definitely will.
Is this album better than "Meet Miley Cyrus"? Certainly. One thing is for sure: I did not expect to enjoy this album so much.
