On Pocketful of Sunshine, Natasha Bedingfield sounds like Joss Stone only bouncier. Nothing wrong with that. In fact, the brightness and buoyancy of this record will keep it spinning long after CDs that shoot for hipster credibility--with funked-up bells and fancy production whistles--have been deposited back into their jewel cases for all eternity. Check it out: "Love Like This," with Sean Kingston, puts its hands in the air for puppy love--the kind that'll bring you back to your "middle school kiss"--and a couple of other songs follow the youth-themed suit. "Backyard" time-travels to an idyllic childhood, while "Freckles" fleshes out, for the benefit of the insecure, the beauty in imperfections. Elsewhere, Bedingfield is her indomitably upbeat self. Opener "Put Your Arms Around Me" reeks of reassurance and tenderness. "Happy" implores would-be gloom-and-doomers to snap out of it, and while the title track doesn't wander all that far lyrically, it benefits from a chanted verse brimmed in (positive) attitude. The vibe, overall, is beach-blanket warm and blue-sky ready. Sunshine earns a pocketful, if not more, of pop-music props. --Tammy La Gorce

Customer Reviews

LOVE this cd!
Skeptical of buying this cd since I'm not a big fan of "pop music", but so glad I bought it. The cd has much more of a blues sound than I expected.
The cd is happy and fun and lifts your spirit if you are having a bad day.
It hardly ever leaves the cd player in my car.

Natasha Beddingfield
I enjoyed her CD. Not every song had the same beats and each song was really catchy.

Amazing
Natasha Bedingfield is amazing once again in her second CD "Pocketful of Sunshine". This CD has very up-beat songs such as "Pocketful of Sunshine", "Freckles", and "Pirate Bones". On her CD when you listen to "Pocketful of Sunshine" it's different compared to what you listen to on the radio, but it's still really fun to listen and to sing with. If you are looking for tunes for the summer that make you feel good I would definately recomend this CD and any other CD of Natasha Bedingfield.
