    This debut album from Meghan Trainor has a creative, fun, and upbeat sound. Most songs are so addicting you wish they were all singles!

    I do believe that it's downfall track is "What If I" and might have been better replaced with the leaked song released on YouTube "Over And Done". Overall, great album to listen to when you're in a dancing mood!

    After giving this album a thorough listen, I can say that it's a success. Meghan Trainor stays within the same style of music as her previous single/ep releases, but leaves us interested thanks to the presence of catchy beats and deep ballads. Standout tracks (newly released through this album) for me are No Good For You, Walkashame and Bang Dem Sticks.

    O álbum de Meghan Trainor é perfeito, musicas calmas, músicas que foram feitas pra Charts, e musicas pessoais, que todo álbum deve ter, pisou sem dó. Não me surpreende essa garota ter um bom futuro no mundo músical.

    Title is the debut studio album by American singer-songwriter Meghan Trainor. If you want fun lyrics and catchy songs with simple meanings, this is for you. If you want something a little more, don't bother.

    Overall, Title is a great debut album and enjoyable for fans of catchy radio-catered music like me.

    While the lyrics might not be of much interest for everyone, The music and melody is catchy and really has a "Fun" vibe to it for most of the album. The only issue here is that a few tracks do not capture this vibe and suffer from it.

So either you'll love it all or hate every last bit of it.

    As for the critics, they're always going to want something deep and poetic. I say don't take her cutesy schtick too seriously and just enjoy this album for what it is: fun, feel good pop music.

    It is rare to find a CD where you don't have to skip a track. Every song on Title is pleasing to the ear, which is a feat in itself. Even the great albums, you skip a few tracks, so just for that accomplishment along, the album gets a 10 star review. I have an hour commute to work, I have listened to CD repeatedly. Most albums these days don't deserve to be listened to once.

    Meghan definitely hit it out of the park with 'Title'. She has fully established that she is no one-hit wonder and that she is a pop force to be reckoned with.

    Un grandioso álbum que esta muy infravalorado como toda la carrera de esta diva musical solo por explotar géneros musicales ya llevados anteriormente en la industria musical. Que deslumbre los años del Doo/Woop otra vez.

    A fun album. Kind of repetitive, and song structure is very basic. Would have been nice to for her to maybe mix it up a little so the structures weren't so formulaic, but still. A pretty good debut album. Hopefully she grows more as an artist and keeps up on the charts!

    I know some people will despise this album but for me, it's too dang catchy to ignore. Some songs are pretty bad (ironically, the song I like the least was the lead single) but others such as Title and Walkashame have some real charms behind them.

    Title, pop's "new-girl-on-the-block" Meghan Trainor's début studio album, is incredibly light fare with some catchy melodies and brilliant vocals, even if there's ultimately no substance. Perfect to dance around to when you've had a bad day; just one of those albums.

    STAND-OUT SONGS:
    Lips Are Movin'
    Bang Dem Sticks
    Walkashame

    The Metacritic score for this album is very misleading. It's a solid pop album with influences of doo wop and soul that sounds familiar yet fresh at the same time. The lyrics are sassy, like Meghan's persona on the album. I highly suggest a listen, Walkashame is the best song on the album, btw.

    The best pop album released this decade so far. It's a lyrical and musical masterpiece. It's crazy how cohesive the album and yet no song on the albums sounds the same. Highlights: the whole album.

    This is the first time I think I've bought a CD and love the entire thing. Especially the song with John Legend. I could listen to her beautiful voice all day! And that she writes these songs amazes me. Her songs are retro, yet modern, and I love that mix! She is so gifted. America's version of Adele.

    I was very pleased by this Meghan Trainor album and it definitely set her apart from her one hit wonder status.

She isn't afraid to speak about anything! While I can listen to other albums about sappy break ups and the repeated "I beat the **** up" formula, Meghan keeps it fresh and fun. She's probably the first person in pop music willing to make a song about the walk of shame. With this incredible album, Meghan Trainor has officially become one of my favourite women in pop music.

    Não sei como muita gente não gosta do Title. Ele é um álbum maravilhoso. Com músicas ecléticas e chicletes e letras muito bem escritas, ele é um álbum fantástico, com alguns pontos baixos, mas não deixando sua musicalidade em ótima qualidade.

    Pontos Altos: Dear Future Husband, No Good For You, Like I'm Gonna Lose You
    Pontos Baixos: All About That Bass, Walkashame, The Best Part

    Title is a plastic pop bomb in its maximum expression and is fantastic. It is incrible as the songs follow the same thread and theme without boring. Meghan showed that she is a true pop diva and that apart from singing well, she writes well and sounds good.

    Trainor recycles the themes from every forgettable Billboard alumnus from the past decade, with a bit more color here and there, but not enough to distinguish herself from the pack.

    The success of Lips Are Movin’ confirms that she’s no Eamon-style one-hit wonder; but Trainor might do well to study Duffy’s fate.

    Come for catchy hooks sung in an affected southern accent, not for insightful and, intimate songwriting.
