Yes, this whole "speed dating" with different producers has given us a lot of variety, yet one thing remains the same...the versatility of Haley.

Another example of retro with a new twist. I love the Haley "wail" in this song. She always brings home the chorus...I love it...the perfect example of Haley Soul.

It's very original and interesting sounding. I would be shocked if this album doesn't make waves as the most original debut by an Idol artist yet.
LOVE IT!
Couldn't agree more. Even in my total Haleyenized state I can see the quality of this album and the impact it should have. In 90 seconds one can get a good feel for each song and the overall quality of the album. It is interesting how good the studio versions are of the promotional performances we have already heard. 'Hit the Ground Runnin' has a different little twist to it.

Musically a success IMO; no telling what the masses taste is like as we have all learned. The reggae tune is great, and I like them all. Hard for me to say which is a favorite which says its a strong compilation. Way to go Haley and thank you from your fans. Hope there is commercial success and grammys attached!
Hey, signed CDs apparently still available - - - on EBAY, bidding starting at $99.95!
I like them all, and it would be hard to tell which ones will be more successful for the masses. I really think Haley will be proven correct to have taken her time on this first album. She has built a very fanatical base of support. This album will embolden the core fan group and attract a lot of non-idol fans.

I think there are several cuts that could be released as the next single and I agree that NTYH would be a good choice. While maybe not a summer song, I think Undone is a really good tune. Oh My is cool -- a song that can grow on you. I love the crazy sax, although the B.o.B. rap seems weak to me. I love her voice on Liar.
Although Spider Web does not jibe with my expectations I really like the bonus songs. There really is no place for the "regular" album -- it's not the kind of thing that any true Haley fan would purchase.
I love the crazy sax too...but that's a whole nother thread.
I can't imagine how they were able to cut it down to 10 songs on the basic album when she had these 4 other songs too ('What You Don't Know is stunning on first through multiple listens). Makes you wonder how many more excellent songs she still has out there, considering she recorded about 30?
Overall, I am completely stunned by the album. Haley delivers another knock out...did we ever doubt her ability?
