David Archuleta
* Billboard praised David Archuleta, calling it "charming" and filled with performances "meant for arenas." It also credited Archuleta as having a "once-in-a-decade pop voice: A silky tenor with a natural melancholy."

* Ken Barnes of USA Today gave the album a positive review saying, "On American Idol runner-up David Archuleta’s first, self-titled album, the 17-year-old singer delivers a non-stop succession of polite pop songs swathed in gauzy cotton-candy textures and catchy choruses. And that's exactly what he should be doing."

* The New York Times writes "(Archuleta) has a lovely, foggy R&B voice out of scale with his small body". Writes the review, "The music, made by many producers and songwriters, averages out different forms of radio-format blandness, with tinges of Coldplay and Shania Twain, and a few dollops of good writing."

Guilty Pleasure:
* BlogCritics said the record is a dodge, with cheap attempts at boldness hidden in feeble cuts like “Hot Mess” instead of front and center where more genuine attempts belong

* Entertainment Weekly claimed Tisdale's still treading an overly familiar pop-rock trail already better blazed by Miley Cyrus and said the album isn't so much pleasurable

Sit flop stan!

Ashley is and will always be better than David.

Only standout songs on his debut are "Crush", "Touch My Hand ", "Running" and "To Be with You". "Barriers" is OK, but everything else is cheesy and boring. Average debut.

And....

Ashley's debut had many standout songs like "He Said She Said", "Be Good to Me", "Not Like That", "Positivity", "Goin' Crazy", "Over It" and "We'll Be Together". Others songs are good too, but there are some missteps. Still, one of the best Disney debuts.

"Guilty Pleasure" is an amazing album - standouts like "Acting Out", "It's Alright, It's OK", "Masquerade", "Hot Mess", "What If" and "Crank It Up". "Tell Me Lies", "Erase and Rewind", "Hair" and "Me without You" are good songs, but everything else is bad. Still, one of the best albums for me.

Leaving this thread now....

Dead @ Thread

^ IKR??

Death @ circus being better than IASF

What part of this being a public thread with different opinions didnt u get?

Britney Spears and Circus surely deserve that nomination. From Blackout to Circus, there are much more inovation and she is more mature, so deserving

I don't see the funny in LMAO it's obvious better?

1. You're not a critic. You are just an ordinary person.
2. do you know the word OPINION?

I just said my opinion about their albums.

IASF is Beyonce's worst solo album, it has like 6 good tracks on both sides.
Circus >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> IASF

I think she might get a nomination, she really deserves it.
