The album is up for streaming and I know some of you (Giggling Trout and Anime Fan) are here for her so I thought I would make this topic to discuss the album.

Even though the album does reuse a lot of her previously released music there is some remastering to keep it fresh.
I didn't feel like I wanted to skip anything aside from How Can I. So that's 12/13. Yeah, I'll be listening to this for a while. |

It's a pretty fun record, not something I think I'm going to invest in, but definitely worth another couple of plays I think _________________

I haven't been entirely sold on some of the singles I've heard lately, but I think I'll like this. I'll stream it later today at some point, and then post my thoughts.
Hopefully, there's not too many songs where she does that "sexy talking" thing. I just want to hear singing. Talking in music kinda gets on my nerves for some reason. _________________ http://www.last.fm/user/freepr0n

Now that I've come down from the hype, I have to say the album isn't as good as my initial impressions stated. It kinda falls apart in the latter half, with What I Like and You're The One being the only saving graces. Favorite tracks would have to be You (Ha Ha Ha) and Set Me Free.

I actually kinda like that talking/rapping thing she does. It works really well on So Far Away with the lounge-y and chill production. |
