With producer Jon Fields at the helm, Demi teamed up with Jonas Brothers to co-write several of the album's 11 songs. It was a natural collaboration, since Demi counts Nick, Joe and Kevin among her best friends. Their inerrant feel for hook-laden rock helped Demi deliver on her vision. "If I were to write the album by myself it would probably have been a little more serious," she notes. "But I didn't want that. I wanted a fun album."

It's hard to imagine anything more musically fun than full-out rockers like "Get Back" and "Gonna Get Caught," both written by Demi with Jonas Brothers. Says Demi, "So many guys cheat and play games. I thought there needed to be a song about a guy getting caught. Nick said, `Can't it have a happy ending?' But I said, `No, no, no!'"

She balances the uptempo tracks with sweeping ballads like "Two Worlds" and "Believe in Me," the latter featuring a message Demi takes seriously. "Being a teenage girl you deal with insecurity," she says. "People think if you're in the spotlight, you're overly confident, but most of us deal with so much criticism, it gets to us. I'm the type of person who wants to take it with a grain of salt."

Demi's vulnerable side comes through on "Until Your Mine" and the title track, a touching ballad (co-written with Jonas Brothers) about a faltering relationship. She explores similar territory in "On the Line," an uptempo duet she co-wrote and sings with Nick Jonas. "We wanted to write a breakup song," Demi says, "and what better way to say it when you're breaking up over the phone than with the title `On the Line.'"

Demi's inner rocker girl comes roaring back on "Party" and "LA LA Land," a droll take on SoCal life and all its attending artifice. Showing her songwriting skills Demi wrote "Trainwreck" all by herself. She wraps the album with "The Middle," a strikingly mature song about finding balance in love and life.

About the Artist
Demi Lovato first caught the acting bug at age 6, when she auditioned for and landed a part on the iconic children's show "Barney & Friends." While on the show, Demi perfected her musical talents -- she plays both guitar and piano -- and by the time Disney discovered her, she was a triple threat as actress, recording artist and consummate performer.

In January 2007 she was cast as Charlotte Adams on the Disney Channel original series "As the Bell Rings," which aired later that summer, and for which she wrote and sang her own songs. Next she starred as Mitchie Torres in the Disney Channel original movie "Camp Rock," which premiered in June 2008. Ever the multi-tasker, Demi will soon begin production on her new Disney Channel original series, " Welcome to Mollywood," a fish-out-of-water comedy in which she plays a Wisconsin teen who comes to L.A. to star in her favorite TV show.

But music remains front and center for Demi. With the support of her family, she is ready for the next wave of fame and success. "I know myself enough to get me through any trials," she says. "I make mistakes, but my parents are there to get me through those mistakes and keep me staying positive."

Beautiful, talented, thoughtful and boundlessly enthusiastic, Demi Lovato is ready for the next chapter in her life. And she hopes her fans are ready to be there with her. "I want people to know me, and that I write about them. I'm human; your human, so lets relate."

Customer Reviews

Simply Amazing.
I don't think anyone really expected much of this 16 year old girl when they heard she was going to be side by side with the Jonas Brothers for the huge Disney success, Camp Rock. Boy, were those people proven wrong.

Quite personally, I've found most Disney stars entertaining, but never vocally talented. Demi took the stereotype of Disney stars and literally smashed it.

With her extremely mature debut album, Demi Lovato has exemplified that talent runs in all ages. Even more impressive? She co-wrote most of the album, except for two, "Until You're Mine" and "The Middle".

Although most of the tracks were co-written with teen bombshells Jonas Brothers, one of the most ear pleasing tracks is one she wrote by herself entitled "Trainwreck". All the uptempo songs have a unique sense of fun, and each ballad is filled with heartfelt and personal lyrics. In the title track, "Don't Forget", you can cut the emotional tension with a knife.

The boys also come in for a great duet, which pretty much laid out every teenage breakup in a matter of 3 minutes and 26 seconds.

My personal favorites? Trainwreck, La La Land, On The Line, and Until You're Mine. =]

I suggest you try this album out, especially if you're a Disney fan. It will definitely redefine how you view "Disney stars".

Demi Lovato is a powerhouse.
I'll just come straight out and say that I'm a tried and true Jonas Brothers fan. I'm absolutely, positively in love with their music. I'm one of those screaming teenage girls that stands out in the summer heat, rain, or snow to see them play; the ones on TV that people laugh at because of their intense dedication. I've seen them six times, and three of those times, a 16 year old girl named Demi Lovato opened. Going to my first Burning Up show, I'll have to admit I was a bit skeptical of her. I had seen her in Camp Rock only a few days before (which I'll admit wasn't the greatest) and I didn't really know what to expect. I wondered what exactly she was going to sing besides her songs from Camp Rock. I thought she was going to be just another sickly sweet, sugar tart popstar that Disney concoted in their popstar machine. Boy, was I wrong. When she came out on stage, her stage presence and powerful music were endearing. She strutted around the stage singing her rock driven compositions with the poise and grace of someone who had been doing it for years. A couple months later, her album came out. I bought it the day it came out and was immediately hooked.

Demi Lovato may be sweet, but her songs are more driven by her individual human emotions than any other of her counterparts right now (Miley Cyrus, The Cheetah Girls, etc.). She's not afraid to talk about being heartbroken and talk about human relationships. While some of her songs are more on the pop side (probably to appease Disney), the rock edge is undeniable on most tracks. Her songs are universal. Pre-teens will love them and older people can relate to them. It's almost impossible to pick your favorite track off this album. It's one of those rare ones that you can listen to all the way through and not be bored. I love Demi.

Former Side-Kick Turned Songstress
Former side-kick turned songstress, Demi Lovato started her Disney channel career as nothing more then Salina Gomez's best friend for life; but thanks to the success of camp rock and a collaboration with the Jonas Brothers this 16-year-old is on her way to being the next big princess of pop.

This might come as a shock-and-awe to fans of Disney's current pop maven Miley Cyrus, but truth be told Demi bolts out catchy, youth inspired tunes better then her Hannah Montana counter part and as an added bonus she dose all this without the country twang.

The album opens with a sugar and spice coated gum drop entitled "La La Land," and continues to amaze with rock induced "Trainwreck," which propels Demi's vocals into mysterious quasi-alt territory. Jonas sibs Nick and Joe (who co-wrote the album with Demi) croon on, "On the Line," giving the song that Camp Rock final jam appeal. While bouncy, well paced, boy inspired songs such as "Don't forget," (the song that shares the albums title), "Gonna Get Caught," and "The Middle," have the potential to bandage broken hearts of tween girls everywhere. And if that's not enough the finale song "Believe In Me," brings the album home with an inspirational ballad on just being yourself at the end of the day that will reassure the Mitchie Torres in all of us.

So in short if you're a Miley fan you'll love or hate Demi even more because "Don't Forget," is a bubblegum contender guaranteed to dethrone any similar sounding musical mogul, who is delusional enough in thinking that she still has a chance in the Magic Kingdom of holding on to her tween-pop-star crown and microphone scepter.
