Her best effort yet. Consistent throughout, vocal abilities are stronger on these recordings, experimental sounds is a +, and it's just a feel good pop/dance album.
Well done, girl!!! She's on track to have "CMN" be the fastest selling single of 2012 and a 3rd #1 album, she's a gem.
Shame she won't be pushed into the US Market with this album, she could do wonders here. I think the US audience would eat her up. The beauty of her, her dramatic backstory (divorce, malaria, etc) and a solid pop singer; girl can do it!
Favorites: CMN, GITM, CT, SDAM, LOS*, AIF, LK
*Absolute favorite.

After play it twice I can say this.
1. Under The Sun - 9/10 -- Catchy and cute, I didn't like at the begining
2. Call My Name - 8/10 -- It's good but can't get into it, yet.
3. Craziest Things (Featuring Will.I.Am) - 7.5/10 -- It has its parts but I think Will.I.Am wasn't needed
4. Girl In The Mirror - 8/10 -- It's ok
5. A Million Lights - 10/10 -- I really like her vocals here, sounds amazing!
6. Screw You (Featuring Wretch 32) - 8.5/10 -- I'm torn between love it or like it
7. Love Killer - 8/10 -- The same as CMN
8. Ghetto Baby - 8.5/10 -- It's good, such a grower, I wouldn't be surprised if this turn out one of my faves
9. Sexy Den A Mutha - 8/10 -- The beat is amazing and it's quite good.
10. Mechanics of the Heart - 7/10 -- May I call it the filler?
11. All Is Fair - 10/10 -- The same as AML!
DELUXE
12. Boys Lie - 8.5/10 -- I like, the chorus is catchy!
13. One Thousand - 8/10 -- It's good
14. Telescope - 10/10 -- I fell in love with this after I listened as b-side from CMN
15. Last One Standing - 10/10 -- May I call it my fave in the album?
Score: 8.6
The album is good but I fear that there ain't memorable tracks, hopefully after one month I'll like it as I do now.

You gave a rating of 8 to a song that was "just okay," and the same rating to a song that is "amazing".

Don't expose me like that 
The beat is amazing but the song as whole gets an 8 while the other is the other way around

"Ghetto Baby" is surprisingly my favorite so far. I've never been much of a Cheryl fan, but it's very interesting for her. I like "Girl In the Mirror" too. I'm actually finding "Screw You" to be pretty basic. And that noise she makes every time she sings "this is waaaaar" in "All Is Fair" is NOT cute.
Overall though, this is much better than her last album IMO.

Scrap "Under The Sun", the rest of the album has bigger potential.

I want to buy the album, but I have to spare money for a few months for the super deluxe, I feel such a flop fan, for having to wait #brokeflopfan

Same, I'm waiting a few months/years until it's reduced (I do that with every album). 
That's why I got Leona Lewis' 'Echo' for only 99p.

So after the 1st listen of the album the songs that I like are:
Call My Name, Girl In The Mirror, A Million Lights, Screw You, Sexy Den A Motha, Mechanics Of The Heart, All Is Fair and Last One Standing
Boys Lie and One Thousand are cute... Under The Sun is ok... the others are just filler... overall it is a good album. Better than her previous 2. Can't wait for the other 4 tracks to leak
By far my favourite track is A Million Lights... her vocals are beyond flawless
