“After my first full listen-through, there were only 2 songs that I can say I just don’t like.

The first song that rubbed me the wrong way was “Remember December.” I’d seen a Wal-Mart Soundcheck performance Demi did prior to the album release and even then I didn’t care for this song. I feel like her vocals are strained at the beginning and I find the chorus pretty much irritating. You know how there’s always that one song that requires the album booklet to decipher the lyrics? This is it. I have no idea what she’s saying through most of it.

The next let down for me was “Gift of a Friend.” Just by the title I was terrified. I’m not one to really like cheesy songs unless they’re particularly catchy or actually move me, emotionally. However, this was just plain out cheesy. Songs containing phrases like “when you open your heart & believe in the gift of a friend” generally turn me off. However, on a more positive note, her vocals were absolutely outstanding in this song, which was kind of the redeeming factor. • Read full story »

“For the Radio Disney masses, there’s Lovato and Here We Go Again, the Camp Rock star’s second album in less than a year and her latest attempt at swiping Miley Cyrus’ throne. While the native Texan is a self-proclaimed fan of death metal, her latest disc is more Kelly Osbourne than Ozzy Osbourne, and closer in style to fellow Texan Ashlee Simpson than fellow Texan Kelly Clarkson. Lovato’s charm and energy shines through though on album highlights like the synth-heavy “Got Dynamite” and the soulful “Every Time You Lie,” Caryn Ganz writes in her three-star review of the LP.”

“American Idol” and Disney are the two strongest pop machines in music today. This week, two of their most promising talents released sophomore albums: “Camp Rock” star Demi Lovato follows up last year’s “Don’t Forget” with the brassy “Here We Go Again,” and 2007 “Idol” winner Jordin Sparks stakes her claim with “Battlefield.”

So, which one will become the summer jam record, perfect for blasting at slumber parties and Forever 21 sales? The good news for the artists is that the world of teen pop is a magnanimous one. Fans are encouraged to listen to all the competitors; nary a beef is in sight.

Sparks might be the “Idol” alumna, but it’s Lovato who’s most influenced by Kelly Clarkson’s style. Even the title of Lovato’s ’80s-inspired “Remember December” could be taken as a vote for Clarkson’s maligned full-length “My December.” • Read full story »
