False Smiles - Amy Studt > Reviews

Advantages: Refreshing change to typical American pop girls!
Disadvantages: Certain bad songs, but good ones far outweight them!

Amy Studt… yet another young wannabe wanting to follow in Britney’s footsteps out of America. Yet upon second glance her music isn’t of the typical teenage pop genre that saw Britney and fellow American Christina rise to fame… oh no, there’s much more to Amy Studt than meets the eye. Just a Little Girl – her first single, seemingly an immature melodious song, I feel it’s not one of her best, elements of rock at times especially within the chorus, ... Read review

Advantages: Easy listening, thought provoking lyrics
Disadvantages: couple of boring ballads

...to give her debut album False Smiles a listen. Pushing any pre-conceived ideas of "teen-scene" music to one side I was pleasantly surprised. It's one of those CD's that doesn't click until a few listens, then you just can't get it out of your system! Some of the songs have been co written by the likes of Gary Barlow, Cathy Dennis, Karen Poole (of Alisha's Attic). Here is my track by track review of False Smiles (released 30 June 2003) just a little ... Read review

Advantages: Nice vocals, sublte style variance, easy listening
Disadvantages: Over production, false image of skate rock

No I have to admit, that I bought this album only after reading in some newspaper that Amy Studt was billed to be the UK's equivalent to Avril Lavigne. Now as I quite enjoy Avril's music, I was quite excited about this particular album by Amy Studt. After listening to it, I have mixed emotions. The album kicks off with the three singles, in order of release (Just A Little Girl, Misfit, Under The Thumb), none of which can really claim to be of the ... Read review

Advantages: there's nothing else like it
Disadvantages: a bit depressing

this album is full of surprises, and in my opinion the songs amy chose to be singles are no better than the album tracks, she should have released em ALL!!! 1. Just A Little Girl - Not Her Best 7/10 2. Misfit - Funny, and makes you wanna stand out from the crowd and be individual and a bit weird!! 8/10 3. Under The Thumb - Her Best single, very creative and the video helps the song! 10/10 4. If Only - I always skip over this song, as ... Read review

Advantages: Loads of really good songs. A great CD with lots of variety of songs
Disadvantages: The album first released doesn't includ the 'all i wanna do song'. Make sure you get the second version

...the Cd you buy does!! False smiles is great to listen to when your feeling fed up. 'Ladder in my tights' is wicked. It instantly cheers you up if your feeling fustrated or angry or upset with some one. There are some sad songs to cry as well as some songs to dance to. Its the perfect album for every feeling you might ever have. Theres also a song about standing up for yourself when you are the target of bullying. This is a great CD and I recommend ... Read review
