You have roughly 24 hours to get in any last minute reviews.
The final score for Sia - '1000 Forms of Fear' will be tabulated and posted tomorrow night.
I HIGHLY suggest we review Jesse's upcoming album. 'Back Together' is one of the Best Male Pop Songs of this Decade (still think it woulda been a #1 hit if Timberlake sung it!). I'm intrigued into hearing the album.
I didn't even know Jesse McCartney was still doing music. I guess I'd be more down for his album since I already listened to La Roux a lot (and love it) and I'm gonna review it anyway. It's cool to get new albums that I don't know.
I think it's funny that most people don't think that way though and wanna review what they already know.
Not at this time. We just started this, we don't wanna get ahead of ourselves.
Alright.
I wish you guys good luck, cause seeing all these reviews for this album, makes me think about all the reviews when the major pop girls release something

I found myself SO excited for Sia's album. The album track "Elastic Heart" featuring the Weeknd had become one of my favorite songs of the year and Chandelier was pretty great too. With that being said -- I was SO disappointed. This album completely droned on and on and on. So many times did I find myself looking at my spotify, to see how close I was to finishing. It totally baffles me, on how the woman who created masterpieces like "Diamonds" by Rihanna and "Perfume" by Britney Spears could create such a bore. Songs like Diamonds and Perfume are interesting, with pounding choruses. Lyrically, they do a lot with a little. Where was the cleanliness and light, found in songs like "I Am" and "All I Need" (both credit to Christina Aguilera)? Sia's lyrics for other people are always colorful, they provide a visual through sound, while still remaining simple. The ones found on "1000 Forms of Fear" are the epitome of bland. But it does beg the question of -- are the lyrics even bland? Or is the album as a whole just so gray, that it hides any tiny spot of lyrical greatness?
2/10
