Customer Reviews

Awesome, absolutely awesome!
Ever wait for an artist only to be disappointed? Ever buy a CD put it in the player and 12 songs later in they all sound the same? Well that will not happen with this CD! I've been listening to this over on the MTV leaked site for 3 days. It was a bit of a jolt the first time through. "Wow, what the heck was that?" There is so much variety on this CD, you might think it was different artists or someone switched the CD while you raided the ref. But it's all Kelly. Just like we love her, plus some more. Big vocals, catchy beat, some funny stuff, some pop, some rock, a little techno, one even "contemporary Christian sounding." It's got anthems, ballads, the classic Kelly Jilted Love Songs... One thing it is NOT is country. Whatever buffoon started that "Kelly's next album is going to be country" rumor last year has egg all over his or her face. So I'm calling this Kelly Plus. It's true Kelly Clarkson, plus some extra stuff we didn't expect. Totally Cool Beans Kelly.


Added: I just had to add a couple of things. $9.99? Holy smokes. I thought that was a pre-release only price and that it'd jump up after release. If you want to get this CD, now is the time. (And you will, trust me. Once you hear some of these songs on the radio, you'll be wishing you bought it now. :)

Also, you can d/l Sucks from walmart for free. Goto Kelly's website (kellyofficial) and look for the "dove" ad.

Prediction: I Want You will be a #1 single, (You just can't get it out of your head. :) ) and Long Shot, Impossible, Ready, all have excellent chances to get in the top 10. If I Can't Have You will be a big dance hit. (Reminds me of Terri Nunn/Berlin, but better.) I even "like" Whyyawannabringmedown, but not for the song, but for that fact that she finally got "that" out of her system because the next 5 songs are awesome. (You'll understand when you listen to the CD.) There are not many performers that could pull off such a range of unique styles of music, yet she does, and they all are core "Kelly Clarkson." Amazing.

I can only say THANK YOU KELLY! Every minute waiting for this CD was worth it. See you at the show. We'll be near the front again. Can't wait!

13. I Want You 5
14. If No One Will Listen 5
15. Tip Of My Tongue 5 (Major hit here!)
16. The Day We Fell Apart 4

Then I went and compared these ratings to my ratings for Kelly's other CDs. I was very surprised. Here is my matrix:

1 2 3 4 5 AVG
0 1 1 6 3 -> 4.0 (Thankful)
0 0 2 4 5 -> 4.2 (Breakaway)
0 3 2 4 4 -> 3.7 (My December)
0 0 3 5 8 -> 4.4* (All I Ever Wanted)

From a stictly personal taste, I'm saying this is her best CD to date, at least for now. Just in case you want to know, I ranked each song 1 to 5 stars, 1 star=1 point, 2 stars = 2 points etc. Then add up the points and divide by the total no. of songs to get the average. Sorry, Amazon messes up the formating of the matrix. :-( But you can probably figure it out. :-)

All I Ever Wanted - A FANTASTIC CD from Kelly Clarkson
If you're looking for a really diverse, and FUN CD to listen to, then look no further than this!

First, I am a Kelly Clarkson fan, have been since I first saw her on American Idol back in 2002. I've actually really enjoyed all her albums, but felt she really hit her groove with Breakaway, and then continued to surprise and delight me with her last outing, My December.

This CD bridges both worlds, it plays to her harder edge, the one she explored more fully on My December and mixes it up with the poppier and more radio-friendly melodies she displayed on Breakaway - and the result is a smash! All I Ever Wanted is one of those rare CD's, you know, the kind where all the songs are good, and you don't skip past alot of them when listening to it.

On All I Ever Wanted, Kelly displays versatility, most of the songs styles are pretty different, but all of them are held together by one of the surest and strongest voices in pop today. She co-wrote about half the CD, but this time, chose to collaborate with writers who have a greater ability to provide her with the memorable, and yes, more hooky arrangements and melodies that we will undoubtfully be listening to for the greater part of 2009.

My favorite songs change with each listen, an amazing thing! Right now the standout tracks are I Do Not Hook Up, All I Ever Wanted, Cry, Long Shot, Already Gone and If I Can't Have You... However, I find it interesting that if I had written this review yesterday, I might have chosen other songs...

Is it glossy and aimed at radio? Absolutely! But her voice and her personality shines throughout each cut, and I have to wonder...is there anything that she CAN'T sing? I love her voice, and when you mix that voice with tunes that are this catchy, the result is pure magic..

I love Kelly, and yes, I have a soft spot for her more cohesive and personal (but less radio-friendly) music on My December.. But, I have to say, the music on this CD is definitely more accessible, and more fun to listen to.. If given a choice, I would much rather have Kelly singing to me when I turn on my radio than anyone else... so this CD works perfectly for me!

INCREDIBLE!
This CD is GREAT! It really rocks, too. I'm a Metalhead who studied jazz/jazz guitar in college. My musical tastes range from Metallica to the Beatles to Thelonious Monk to JS Bach. No, I'm not comparing Miss Clarkson to them, but musically her new album is very enjoyable. Her vocal stylings are amazing. She can be the ultimate Pop Queen on one track to the lead singer in a rock band on the next. Trk 9's whyyawannabringmedown proves she can even front an angry Punk Band! I am very glad I bought this CD. Kelly Clarkson is a very talented singer. She may be the best female vocalist I've ever heard!
