Think Michelle Branch, think Avril Lavigne, think Sheryl Crow, think girl-empowerment pop rock. Personally, I think puke, but hey, to each his or her own. If you're a buyer of said pop stars and the message they bear, you will be a fan of this album. Self-proclaimed track "Dumb Girl" might be a song preaching about her debut when Woodward says, "I never believed it could happen to me/Something like this only happens to dumb girls."
Other key lyrics in the song are "You bring out the blonde in me," and "I look at the ground and give the sky the middle finger." But "The Breakdown" has Woodward going as far to set herself apart from the others by quoting The Rolling Stones, "The Rolling Stones and I disagree/That you can't always get what you need."
Other pop-magnet tracks include "Blindsided" and "Trouble With Me," which are just waiting for choreographed dance moves and a fancy music video for a TRL premiere. The others are just waiting for the guitar-playing, walking-the-streets video. At least this girl writes all her own songs - with a little help from her "crew." The CD is reminiscent of every other pop princess with a guitar who thinks she can sing. It takes the singer's image (to push records onto innocent, naive teenagers) and passes it off as original. Pure genius.
