Tatooed Heart vocals and production slayed me

Also, a song called "Yours Truly" would have been nice.

This would've been a great closing track

After listening to the whole thing, I kinda don't get the hype all her friends had with Baby I, It's good but it's just an album track, not single material.

I like Ariana a lot but..... she really needs to find her own sound. no standouts Its like a Mariah Carey tribute album

[Come&GetIt]

The album is really good, I love the "old R&B" kind of tease

Listening now. Oh my god "Honeymoon Avenue" is beautiful, such a great opener, a solid 10/10 on first listen.

I loved The Way and Baby I but both singles gets old for me quickly, so I'm hoping the rest of the album doesn't suffer the same fate.

i'm happy the response is by far positive from people in this thread who have actually taken the time. slay princess ariana.

For me the word tribute is so associated with The Hunger Games I was wondering what you were talking about.

Don't mind the haters that throw "boring" and "tribute act" to everything that's not pop or similar to an old sound

Tattooed Heart and Lovin' It are hits.

Although, Tattooed Heart would need to be embraced as a different kind of hit and I don't know how much the GP is here for that kind of hit at the moment. It gives me such old school do-woop vibes and its really refreshing though. So I think it needs to be a single.

Honeymoon Avenue, Daydreamin', and Better Left Unsaid are all really solid songs as well but I didn't connect with them as much. Even though the vocals for all of them are impeccable.

Also, I don't know how I feel about Better Left Unsaid potentially being a hit quite yet, because it kind of sounds like a compromise track trying to meld into something between what Ariana wanted her album to sound like and what the label wanted her to make in order to fit in more with the current sound. I could see them trying to push that as a single at some point.

The rest of the songs are cute but at times a bit repetitive. Overall I'd give the album a solid 8/10 and it really is a strong debut.

I was going to say this is the best album I've heard since Unapologetic, but that'd be a lie. It's better

I couldn't get into Piano, that intro reminded me too much of some Sean Kingston song. Also it's too pop-y for her voice in my opinion. And then to top it off the chorus, hook, and bridge were abysmal, it just didn't work for me

Your other choices tho, A+

And yeah, I don't know, that Popular Song was obviously tacked on last minute and kind of killed the vibe the album spent building the whole time. In my opinion at least.

[Dizzy]

Brilliant album!

[olympiccairways]

Love love this album it's definitely my top favorite of 2013 so far!!!

Only song I don't use is Popular Song


I don't understand how people can say it's bland they can stay pressed.
