THIS IS WHY I STAN THIS WOMAN. I HAVE NEVER ENJOYED AN ALBUM MORE ON FIRST LISTED. I am so proud to be a stan right now, despite other peole's biased opinions and despite all the negativity around her, I truly adore Demetria.
She has delivered her best album yet and I am eternally thankful.

I can't get over Father. I said from the snippets Mr Hughes would be my fave and for now it still is, but Father is coming fast

I adore Father. Tears poured down my face the first time I heard it, I hate to admit.

And no, not joking. I love Demi, but this album is a bunch of recycled ideas of other artists. Major step back. It's disappointing, especially after Cool For The Summer and Confident as singles were so strong.

This whole comment is a mess. Mr. Hughes sounds nothing like Love On Top. Like literally 0. And if you think this album is a major step back, saying Confident is such a strong single, then  because it's one of the worst songs in the album.

Demi has yet again served a very consistent album full of bops. This (imo) is tied with Here We Go Again as her best album.
Kingdom Come, Wildfire, For You, Stars, Lionheart, Stone Cold put it miles above her past discography. Demi wasnt ****ing around this era

Here is my track-by-track review. Don't get offended, this is how I feel.
CONFIDENT: This song sounds like it could of been really good, but between the cheesy lyrics and the terrible melodies, the song falls flat on its ass. The production is kinda cute, so I'll give her that. (4.5/10)
COOL FOR THE SUMMER: Now this is a perfect pop song! From the catchy hook and the sexy verses, to the phenomenal production, everything about this song is perfect. No complaints from me. (10/10)
OLD WAYS: Old Ways is cute. The pre-chorus is probably the best (and only good) part of this song. The verses could of been better, but they're not terrible. Her voice sounds good and she's not over-singing, so that's a plus right there. Another redemming factor is the bridge. If it wasn't for that part (and the pre-chorus), the song would have gotten a (way) lower score. (7.8/10)
FOR YOU: Finally! Another good song! For You is wanna of the better parts of the album. From the swift melodies to the heart-wrenching chorus, this song is everything a power ballad should be. Although, the production seems to get too loud during the chorus, and there seems to be a lot going on at some points. But other than that, I don't really have anything to complain about. (9/5/10)
STONE COLD: This song could of been so good, if it wasn't for the unnecessary belting, and the uninspired production. The lyrics are so beautiful and they make you feel things you've never felt before, but it's all taken away by the uneventfulness of the song. And did I mention the over-singing. I mean, for real. I had to legit turn down the volume cause my head was starting to hurt. (4/10)
KINGDOM COME (FEAT. IGGY AZALEA): Kingdom Come is another highlight. The chorus is probably my favorite part of the song. And finally! A song where Demi doesn't over-sing (although she almost came close with the chorus). And I actually don't even mind the Iggy verse. It's probably one of her best and most creative raps ever. The production sounds very familiar to another one of Iggy's songs, but it kinda makes sense considering Iggy featured. Overall, this is one of my favorite songs on this album. (9/10)
WAITIN FOR YOU (FEAT. SIRAH): Ugh, this song is just such a drag. It's so uneventful and the production is so monotonous. And that Sirah feature does NOT make this song any better. It actually makes it so much worse. I will definitely not play this song again. (3/10)
WILDFIRE: Wildfire was one of the songs I was looking forward to, and she did not let me down. Well... she kinda did a little bit. I would have liked for her to use her chest voice more on the chorus, and the production could of had a little bit more oomph. But it's definitely not a bad song. Far from actually. It's a sexy, seductive lullaby (and I don't mean that in a bad way), and it keep you wanting more. Although, she seems to really love ad-libbing (a little too much, if you ask me). (8.5/10)
LIONHEART: Oh God! This song makes me feel so many emotions! I've never cried while listening to a song before, but this song almost got me. I could just feel the emotion in her voice. It's just so heartbreaking. (10/10)
YES: No. (2/10)
FATHER: I understand why Demi put this song on the album, and I don't think it's bad. But, I can't help but feel like there's something missing. In my opinion, this song doesn't really fit well with the other songs on the album. It's a very soulful ballad about forgiving her Father, and wishing him piece in the afterlife. And I know she had all the right intentions, but it falls flat. I probably won't listen to this song again, either. (5/10)
STARS: I smell a Kesha (Rose) reject! I do not like this song AT ALL, and there is NO redeeming factor. The verses are an atrocity and the breakdown is appalling. I have no idea what Kesha- excuse me- Demi was thinking when she made put this on the album. Honestly, I don't have any idea why she even recorded it. It's just... so... repulsive. (1/10)
MR. HUGHES: Mr. Hughes is alright. Not good, but not bad. It kinda reminds me of a early 2000's Britney Spears reject from some reason. Although, I'm pretty sure Britney would never record a song like this. I completely understand why it is a bonus track, but if I'm being honest, I wouldn't have mind if she hadn't put it on the album. (4.8/10)
OVERALL: I'm so disappointed in Demetria Devonne Lovato. I had such high hopes for her, but this album is exactly what I was afraid she was gonna make. It is just not a good album, and I probably won't listen to most of the songs again. And it's such a shame to, cause she has an amazing voice. But I just can not forgive her for all of the over-singing. All of the belting is just grating. (5/10) |
I don't mind you having an opinion on every of them, except on Stone Cold because of the uncessary belting? That part is just a no,no. There's no such thing. Aretha franklin belts all over her songs, CA belts all over her songs, so many artists belt all over their songs yet people only seem to complain about demi's belting lol.

XF could potentially make a song like Stone Cold a #1. |
It's the second single so even tho I also would rather her sing Stone Cold she will perform Confident

I think she should release Stone Cold as a single in the UK, since it's doing so good there.... It has been in the top 70 for a week..... And doesn't want to leave... Btw does any1 else agree that Wildfire is simply pop perfection?

Wildfire is from another planet guys, I can't believe it, it's beautiful and has this feeling of different, it's extraterrestrial, I can't explain 
I think my trinity right now is Wildfire - Lionheart - Father and Stone Cold comes really close, I could say it's in my trinity
