Tom’s Rating: 2.5
Highlights:
Get Your Hands Off Me
Do Watcha Be Watcha
13-YEAR-OLD REVIEWER: It was pretty cool that every song sounds different. Everything was different in every song. There was a British dude. Synthesizers. And classic rock stuff. But then there was her voice. I'm not a big fan of it because her voice was annoying and it's not my type of music. I'd rather listen to the instrumental versions of those songs than to her singing.
52-YEAR-OLD REVIEWER: Heart without heart. Too much vibrato.
