Billboard Single Review fo "Tattoo"

So many American Idols who won favor with voters because of sheer vocal potency ultimately betray that trust by entering the studio and recording music aiming to fluff up the hip factor--and in the process, hiding their gifts behind junk production and throwaway tracks. How refreshing that season six winner Jordin Sparks kick-starts her career with a genuine showcase of her beautiful voice. Midtempo melodic keeper "Tattoo," about the indelible emotions that remain after a faded relationship, is an ideal fit for a first fall hit, with crisp, mature instrumentation and a vocal that is ironically reminiscent of fellow "AI" hitmaker Kimberley Locke (a supreme compliment). A sling-shot launch that, for once, should live up to "AI" voter expectations. At this stage, the show needs that kind of cred.

I disagree with that reviewer. She could've had a more vocally impressive single that Tattoo.

^I agree

Anything vocally impressive won't chart and you guys know that.

the reviwer is partially correct, so is Exodus, however Amy Winehouse, and others have done it, so why cant Jordin?

Amy Winehouse is not a good example. She is simply unique, but her vocal ability is not exactly impressive. How shall I say this? She's just different, which doesn't always mean good. I think Jordin did an alright job with this first single. All the Beyonce stans will agree that this type of song sells.

I love Tattoo. And I'm so glad she's not like most of the other AI alums and self-titled her album. I read an interview where she was thinking about having her album self-titled. Well thank gosh she didn't do that!!

^I love Tattoo too.

That sounds so funny, "I love tattoo too." Now say it 3x faster! <3

Best Idol winner ever
