I Belong to Me
JESSICA SIMPSON
Producer(s): Stargate
Genre: POP
Label: Epic

Quote:

So much for restoring a much-needed pop luster to the airwaves. Despite Jessica Simpson's idealicious "A Public Affair" and heaps of cross-promotion from Epic, top 40 turned a relatively cold shoulder on a badly needed elixir to the format's relentless loop of dark, non-melodic fare. Second single "I Belong to Me," from Jess' fourth album, revisits the self-empowerment theme of her 2004 top 20 "With You," a la, "I don't need somebody to complete me/I belong to me." Simple R&B-lite production allows Simpson's lovely vocal to hold the reins, making for a song (written by the incomparable Diane Warren) that is a thematic bull's-eye for her female teen target. This track was originally destined as a Wal-Mart-only bonus, but fans overwhelmingly voted it a favorite, so it is now being stripped on to all versions of her new disc. With that in hand with a top five album debut last issue, let's see if programmers make this release more of the public affair it deserves to be. —Chuck Taylor

I swear to god that if this isnt a hit on radio then they obviously have something against her

My god, let's hope so. I've always believe that Jessica Simpson was somewut underrated as an artist, and even after all this drama, she is still as she was before. = (

I hope she has, at least, a Top 10 hit for this.
But I doubt.

She deserves more than this.

WOW. Chuck Taylor seems to be feeling Jessica Simpson lately. He called APA "perfect" which is an even bigger surprise. I don't like the song but I do hope it does well. I just feel bad for her right now, you know. With those two *****s 69-ing eachother everynight and her being all alone in love. Very sad situation.

But lets face reality. Jessica Simpson is the new Sheena Easton. Both are underrated talents, have a selection of hits spanning 83 different albums, get themselves involved with embarrassing controversy, etc.
