Just heard the new Lindsay Lohan album. My ears! My beautiful ears!
Hear excerpts from all 11 tracks:

Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com
Lindsay Lohan leaps into her much anticipated debut CD with a blast of something that simulates warmed-over Led Zeppelin (the lyrically ferocious "First") and from there finesses it into a stylish experiment in pounding away at teen pop's predictability. Influences--not all of whom her 8-to-14-year-old fans will flip to, or even find, in their pinup mags--loom large: While the Ashlee Simpson-like rocker "Nobody 'Til You" winds into the Jessica Simpson-y "Symptoms of You," the lovelorn "Something I Never Had," taps a sweetly unself-conscious vocal vein that owes gratitude to the otherwise highly un-Lohan-like Lisa Loeb. Though Lohan might balk at the comparison--she is, after all, the "Ultimate"-spawning original teenage drama queen--fellow tween queen Hilary Duff's stamp is pressed firmly into stormy self-explorers like "Disconnected" and "Anything But Me." Where "Speak" intones loudest, though, is in its least-rocking, most beat-propelled songs: The title track dips and bounces tantalizingly, begging hands-in-the-air listeners to "c'mon and let it out"; "To Know Your Name" digitizes a sexy hip-hop inflected dance number; and "Rumors," a J. Lo-like thumper (and one in a trifecta of pouts over the pitfalls of stardom) ends this disc on a don't-stop, bound-for-diva-dom note. -Tammy La Gorce

11. It sounds more like this:
...a derivative, "half as competent" version of Ms. Duff.

6. The early sixties all over again...
We really need a Beatles to jar us from this pop crappp..

Think Annette Funicello..... Same thing, pop tv star, they trun her into a movie star and then into a singing star...

That is, until the Beatles came along......

9. The Beatles?
Nothing against them, but I think what we need is more along the lines of the Clash.

And can someone translate that gibberish review into English?
