GretchenVSep 27, 2006I think Lily is truly a unique talent. Could the music be a little more gritty like her lyrics, sure, but the bubble gum makes the lyrics seem sarcastic and silly. I love the giggle I get just listening to her make light of getting her friends to beat up her ex.....it's classic.

petecAug 10, 2007I thought this album was really good! Its way different to other pop albums and Lily uses really new and unique lyrics! She also deals with issues which teens can relate to! Such as having an annoying sibling (Alfie) or finding out people arent true friends (friend of mine)! This is a must have album in my opinion!

timeOct 18, 2006I paid $23 for this record and I have to say it was worth every penny. Yes she's brash, arrogant, rude and perverse but that's what makes her so endearing.

MichaelWFeb 10, 20072nd best album of 2006 (after Arctic Monkeys), but I guess it'll be for 2007 thanks to Capital.

caseyAr!dubyaMay 17, 2007Not as good as her earlier work. Just kidding. I just wanted to use the most common phrase on this website. A thrilling mess of talent.

Nov 1, 2012"Alright, Still" is one of that few albums that manages to create a pop sound and incorporate sarcasm in it - it's just wonderful. Try the deluxe version - you'll be surprised.
-
Mar 27, 2011"Alright, Still" is an album that sounds catchy as the nursery rhymes with mature lyrics. The album is pop with Caribbean influences and the soft voice which make it sounds so entertaining. It stays away from the generic mainstream pop sound and it sounds cool as ever.

Jun 3, 2014Genius pop music and one of the most pleasant-sounding albums I have ever heard. Just sunny, sassy, British pop music. LDN is one of the Top 5 best pop songs of the 2000s, in my opinion. One of my favorite albums ever, actually. Yeah, it's good.
-
Aug 6, 2013There are no bad songs on this album. This will always be my favorite CD and Lily will always be one of my favorite singers. The best track is probably "Friday Night".
-
Jan 18, 2017This album is the best debut album in history. It is so beautifully unique, with Lily's honest and fabulous lyrics sung with her original and stunning voice. From the catchy 'Smile' to the hilarious 'Knock 'Em Out', this album is truly iconic.
-
Feb 2, 2018The lead single of this album "Smile" is still one of the greatest songs from the 00's decade. Overall the albums shows raw potential and puts Lily right where she should be and that's the spotlight. Great ska/reggae beats and atrociously perfect for a 2006 album.

Nov 22, 2021Llily Allen is one of the smartest pop singers from this century, I love her ironic lyrics
-
Nov 24, 2021Such a amazing debut album, even so young Lily Allen has a lot of personality, I love her voice and sassy lyrics
-

mattaAug 14, 2006People who rate this album low are trying way too hard to be cool. Like last year's Annie-Anniemal disc, this is just pure pop music, and anyway who thinks its overproduced, or the lyrics are cheesy need to lighten up (or just stick with tv on the radio).

HenrikAFeb 3, 2007a really refreshing album with varation in the songs, lots of really good songs and few stinkers makes this a good buy for anyone that likes this kind of music. Personal favorites: 1. Littlest Things 2. Alfie 3. Smile 4. Not Big 5. Friday Night I won't push it as far as to give it a 10 because there are better albums out there but still, it's a pretty darn good album.

BenKMay 11, 2007Although there are weak spots on the album, it is generally a pretty solid effort. Lily's music both quirky and original. Her lyrics are very straight-forward and witty, with really blunt innuendo. I enjoy her music a lot...."Everything's Just Wonderful" and "Alfie" are just amazing.

AndrewJul 25, 2006so deliciously fun and mischievious. if you are the type to trash a cheating ex and shake ur stuff for someone new at the same time, why even hesistate? very british, a lot of attitude, a total firecracker. i give it a 9 only cuz a few songs (like alfie) just completely dont fit on the album...or to who she is.

Lyrically, Allen spins the street-slang tales of blowjobs and booze told with varying success by everyone from The Streets to Shampoo.
-
Sheâ??s funky, confident and fun, and thatâ??s just on the first song.

For now, it's way more than a stop-gap but sadly not the second coming you might have been hoping for.
