  • Summary: The sophomore album for the "American Idol" alum features a song cowritten by Taylor Swift.
Score distribution:
  1. Positive: 2 out of 5
  2. Negative: 0 out of 5
  1. Teamed with new producer Chris Lindsey and with more time to create than she did in the rush following her run on "American Idol," Kellie Pickler's second album is another solid step toward country stardom.
  2. "If those girls were being honest and have been where you’re at. I bet they tell you they wish they had their innocence back." But this is what passes for wisdom on Ms. Pickler’s tepid and forgettable new record.
  3. Kellie Pickler is rote, overproduced Nashville pop-country, while Kellie Pickler is too forceful a personality to be reigned in by such convention
  4. They chuck all that out the window by corseting her cornball humor into an immaculately tailored straitjacket, burying her voice in the mix, cutting away the country in favor of a manicured crossover pop unsuited for Pickler's gawky, gangly voice.

    This album is much better than the 4 initial reviews posted here indicate. There are many more positive reviews from AP, USA Today, and other sources. These 4 are the most negative. Expand

    Kellie's CD is wonderful, and I'm surprised people would rate her so poorly.
