The pop hooks are there, but we can't shake the feeling that the sentiments come off as phony.- E! Online

But even as Santana's magic fingers sometimes struggle for a common thread here, they still do plenty of good work.- E! Online

This album tends to lean more toward the psychedelic ballads, which slows down the action a little too much.- E! Online

Her voice is still in fine shape, but tracks like "Fallen" and "Drifting" are so mild-mannered you have to wonder if anyone will even notice she's back.- E! Online

While [Linda's] death hangs over much of Driving Rain, Macca's knack for taking a sad song and making it better means tracks like "Lonely Road," "It Must Have Been Magic," "Your Way" and "Back in the Sunshine" are redemption songs, not exercises in self-pity.- E! Online

She doesn't quite act her age on teen beat-driven single "Whatchulookinat," but she makes up for it with a series of R&B standards and diva-worthy ballads that hit most of the right notes.- E! Online

Unfortunately, this straightforward approach also reveals how straight-up dull Mann's country-tinged songs can be.- E! Online

It lacks the raw energy and tunes that made people want to hum uncontrollably in the shower. Worse yet, the brazen confidence the Gallagher brothers displayed during the early years has faded.- E! Online

When he gets it right, the rich grooves and soulful voices can be sublime, like early '70s Curtis Mayfield or Sly and the Family Stone.- E! Online

SubtÃtulo... is not without its charms, but it borders on easy listening at times.- E! Online

On "Waiting on the World to Change," Mayer breathily imagines a world where frat boys get off their couches and have people sign petitions. Sigh. A little more of that and less of noodley songs like "Vultures" and "Gravity" would have been a good step toward reminding us who Mayer really is.- E! Online

At worst, a couple of the songs sound like bad Oasis remixes--"All or Nothing" comes to mind--but the good stuff can get any club (or car) hopping.- E! Online

Gone are the inspired melodies and sweet emotional turns of their past triumphant albums, replaced by boring philosophical musings and wafer-thin tunes.- E! Online

While this sounds mostly like incomplete leftovers, there are a few tasty treats: The lonely guitar of "Knives Out," that dirty beat pulsating under "Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors" and the hypnotic body-ponging of "I Might Be Wrong."- E! Online

His backing band's heavy-metal veering leans toward the generic. Only the Igster's sometimes fierce (but fading) yowl adds enough soul--and insanity--to make them at least momentarily credible.- E! Online

This spinner of wispy, earnest vocals, sad-eyed melodies and country sensibilities lacks that special spark of passion to keep one's interest.- E! Online

This is mainly just D12's other five anonymous members moaning on about the lack of credit they get by dropping the most underwhelming rhymes this side of the last Dogg Pound album.- E! Online

A few moody moments work, but this CD should come with a warning sticker that reads vacant.- E! Online

[It] offers only occasional flashbacks to the seedy glamour of the debut, instead settling on lightweight MOR clichés.- E! Online

But once those fleeting, producer-driven thrills die down, the remainder of the album takes a middle-of-the-road, midtempo stance that goes from covering her age issues on "17" to getting downright silly and insipid about looove with "Saturate Me."- E! Online

It's a well-produced disc, but the cavalcade of stars and cartoonish beats make the songs sound more dated than the originals.- E! Online
