after searching high and low i finally found a copy of Kelly Clarkson's new cd "Breakaway". i bought k-mart's last copy so i thought i myself "hmm... this must be a popular cd since it was so hard to find a copy."... then i listened to the cd. yes, it's ok. but not quite what i have come to expect from Miss Clarkson. I've been a fan since American Idol 1, and thought quite highly of her music. after listening to the cd i found 4 songs which i thought to be catchy/meaningful. since i have a little time to kill i thought i would review the album:
Artist: Kelly Clarkson
Album: Breakaway
Rating: 2 1/2 out of 5 stars
I gave her only 2 1/2 because there are 12 tracks on the cd, and only 4 were worth listening to, so in actuality i rated her higher than i should have.
1. Breakaway
This song is very Kelly. reminds me of her american idol hit "A moment like this". its what i've come to expect from her. not a mind blowing song, but it fits her.
2. Since U Been Gone
Shows a side of Kelly that we haven't seen in the past. she's angry, she's hurt, she's through taking shit. i really like this song.
3. Behind these hazel eyes
don't really care for this song. really didn't do anything for me. i tried to like it, i listened, but now i skip over this one.
4. Because of you
i dislike this song most of all. enough said.
5. Gone
I consider this the "avril lavigne" song on the cd. i like this song very much. it's one of the only good ones on the cd.
6. Addicted
The first few lines are ok, but after that she seems to just take the song downhill. this could have been a really good song if they had made a few lyric and music changes. if i have nothing else to listen to then i would let this one play through, but not a favorite of mine.
7. Where is your heart?
This is ok. not really catchy, not something i would choose to put on a cd. this is more of a celine dion song to me. kelly needs spunky songs. this song doesn't work for her.
8. Walk away
this song is catchy, and one i like to sing to. the chorus picks the song up which is why this is one of my favorites.
9. You found me
this song is boring. nothing in this song made me like it. she shows no emotion while singing. i think this song was just used as a filler for the cd.
10. I hate myself for losing you
ah, it's nothing special, but it's alright. the chorus helps, but doesn't come through by saving the song.
11. Hear me
i wish we couldn't on this song.
12. Beautiful Disaster
kelly, kelly, kelly..... this could have been a wonderful song if she tried to show emotion with this song. it drags along, and then finally dies.
i'll buy kelly's next album and hope for the best. everyone needs to make mistakes in life to realize what works for them and what doesn't. this selection of songs doesn't work for her at all. i'm sure clay aiken will pull through and represent american idol well with his next album, because i feel that kelly let them down.
