    It kills me how there are so many idiotic morons who give a bad grade to an album they've never even taken the time to listen to!!! That is just downright stupid!!! People are jeolous of Ashlee because of her family!!! Plain and simple! I dare of the idiots to actually listen to this album and then give it a bad grade! What a bunch of morons!

    I am not usually into this type of music, simpletons. I much prefer my classical, but I was sufficently delighted when I bought this album. I even gave it to my pet rat and he also loved it. He now wanks over Ashlee in his cage.

    la mayorparte de sus canciones son muy buenas aunque la cataloguen como un producto plastico, lo cual me parece una clasificacion estupida solo por ser hermana de jessica, ella realmente canta bien y su musica que la manejan como pop bien podria pasa como unas muy buenas canciones rock, es mas si grupos como green day reciben premios como grupo pop rock ashle realmente merece aparecer en la mayorparte de sus canciones son muy buenas aunque la cataloguen como un producto plastico, lo cual me parece una clasificacion estupida solo por ser hermana de jessica, ella realmente canta bien y su musica que la manejan como pop bien podria pasa como unas muy buenas canciones rock, es mas si grupos como green day reciben premios como grupo pop rock ashle realmente merece aparecer en esas categorias Expand

    Ashlee released this album, because she wanna prove to us she can sing i think she proved part of it but still this album does not lose her taste for ppl i dont think ppl want stars keep change style of music, and not showing their talent just like Britney spear the reason i give 7 is because she didnt show her full energy and it wasnt powerful like a STAR!! but she is a STAR!!!!!

    This CD is packed with good lyrics and very catchy songs. I think she really grew up with the last song, which is slow but definately some powerful lyrics. Her voice is sweet and though she tries to sound tough in some songs, it just doesn't come out right. All in all, there was not one song I skipped. I loved the whole album.

    Oh come on, this is good for what it is.... everyone is being overly harsh. Yeah she funked up on SNL last year but let's get over it. It's a top pop album and it's not boring at least.

    Pretty good album. Her voice sounds auto tuned on tracks and it's hoarse, but the tracks are good and single-worthy. "Beautifully Broken" and "Say Goodbye" are fantastic.

    I love Ashlee Simpson, as an aspiring singer who also has acid reflux, I know how it feels. I feel so bad about her whole SNL drama, it was so undeserved. She is wrongly abused by the media. The album is great and she should be seen by her music not just her singing ability. John Shanks produced her an amazing album, here.

    I am incredibly impressed with this album. I once hated Ashlee Simpson but it was clear when I bought this that I was too quick to judge her without giving her a chance. The album is absolutely harmless and is very nice. Songs like "Another Place To Fall" (my favourite on the album) and "I Am Me" are especially good.

She's not the only artist who mimes. Her sister Jessica may be more talented, but I know who I prefer without a doubt. Expand

  1. The pop hooks are there, but we can't shake the feeling that the sentiments come off as phony.
  2. In venturing to offer something for everyone, Simpson offers nothing for anyone.
  3. No matter how hard Simpson tries, no matter how foreboding the surface, beneath it all she's still light and frivolous. But that doesn't mean, by any stretch, that this is bubblegum music, since that term implies that this music is frothy, fun, and, most important, hooky, and I Am Me is none of those things.
