    does she sing on key? does she play any instruments? can she write songs? no. my advice to miss presley: if you have no talent, don't sing. and stop acting like you had a tough life, cuz you didn't.

    Lisa's duet "Shine" with Pink is awesome...the critics have not been kind to her...she is her own talent and a great talent at that...I'd listen to Lisa, who has the courage to write her own music, over some of these over exploited wannabes any day...

    her sound may not be mainstream , but only the critics think they should be. Theres those of us that perfer not to have mainstream sounds. If you listen to her words , she knows how to get the point across with out being put in the bubble rap of top 40 artists...I think it's an awesome cd

    She should stick with a bluesy, gritty sound. This album is a step backwards from her debut..

    about as fun as getting hit witha fire truck. No where near her father nor her exhusband. That's extremley sad.

    her music makes my ear drums want to burst. the only similarity she has with her father is that they both sound like men. i try to like her as a person to but i can't. all the time she just talks about her sex life and blames her ex husbans for publicity. i here that she has to sponsor her own tours cuz nobody else will.

    This is a great album. All songs other than Dirty Laundry are written by Presley. No one can deny that this girl has talent. She rocks harder than any female singer we have today, and her bluesy/country side gives Shania, and Gretchen a run for their money. While I agree it is a bit too polished, Presley has a voice, and a damn good one!

    u consider this woman a musician? hahaha, please don't make me laugh. the reason we keep saying "rock is dead" is because people like her are infesting it.

    She should stop singing and focus on the charitywork, things like Presleyplace...

    Okay, so she's substituted a gutteral growl for her father's facial sneer -- but I like Lisa Marie! Her breathy alto matches fits the minor keys in which the songs are played and, by golly, she actually sings in tune. As for the "polished" sound about which others have complained -- that's called musical professionalism.

    i have no clue why she's not mainsteam.she has enough publicity. ohhhh, that's right, because the world doesn't care about talentless people. just another drug-abusing d-list musician.

    Truthfully, I am a die hard, long time fan of Elvis. As much as I want to like Elvis's daughter musically, I don't. Her voice has no power whatsoever and the profanity in her songs is a huge turnoff. Interesting that she writes only "when she is depressed". That must explain the mostly dark, miserable and strange lyrics she contributes to. As a stage performer, she lacks Truthfully, I am a die hard, long time fan of Elvis.

    While it's undeniably polished, it's a bit too dark, a bit too quirky, and a bit too individualistic to be part of the mainstream, while being too slick and professional to be on the fringe, but the album is all the more ingratiating for being caught between two worlds.

    Despite hitmaker Linda Perry co-writing half of the album's original tracks, something is missing.

    The big '80s-style production highlights her breathy-sexy vulnerability, but Presley's better when she rocks. [May 2005, p.123]
