Advantages: More Rockier Edge / Written by Herself Disadvantages: Unoriginal / Repetative / More than a few Poor Tracks
Recently released, My December is Ms Clarkson’s third album release and though much anticipated has received extremely bad reviews from critics and the media, ultimately resulting in low sale tickets in America. But is the album really as bad as it seems to be?
**WHO IS KELLY CLARKSON?**
Well Kelly Clarkson was the winner of the very first Pop Idol in the USA way back in 2003 and since winning her crown released her first major album release ...

Advantages: a selection of good songs, kelly's vocals, lyrics provided in the cd inlay Disadvantages: could alienate fans who expected "breakaway - vol 2"
...two things. I haven't lost my temper about it. It only drives me more. If your thing is to bring me down, cool. I'll just work harder." (Kelly Clarkson, ELLE magazine)
It's easy to forget Kelly Clarkson's "American Idol" roots when you consider what a huge star she has become - and a critically acclaimed one at that. And after the success of her sophomoric album "Breakaway" back in 2005 (an album I raved about myself back then), she could have ...

Advantages: Good start Disadvantages: not so good at the end
...So I made use of my amazon vouchers and bought it, and yesterday it arrived and went straight in to my car
The first single from My December was Never Again and I have to admit it was the reason I bought the cd. After hearing the trakc on several occasions on the radio usually while driving to work it appealed to me in the same whay Miss Independant (from Thankful) and Since You Been Gone, and Breakaway (from Breakaway) did.
After an initial ...

Advantages: Sober, One Minute, Never Again, Judas Disadvantages: Can I Have A Kiss, Maybe
...by Clarkson about third release, My December – only this time the extent of which her creative desires have reached has resulted in fired management, cancelled tours and ultimately nervous fans.
Upon buying ‘My December’, it became apparent that even from the front cover, she has moved on from the Breakaway days, and the artistic cover photograph more than screams ‘I have stories to tell’.
Here is my track by track break down on ‘My December’.

Advantages: Some really great pop/rock songs, well written Disadvantages: Lyrics are quite negative, not very commercial
...of me'. One of my favourites on the album.
One Minute - This has quite an electro-pop feel to it, quite different to anything Kelly has done before. The song has a rocky chorus, not really one of my favourites on the album but it's not bad.
Hole - Quite an uptempo song even though the lyrics are quite negative, 'There's a hole, inside of me, it's so cold, slowly killing me'. This song is definitely growing on me, I like the electric guitar sound ...

Advantages: Passionate songs to sing along to Disadvantages: Not everyone's cup of tea....too much female angst
...sofer edge to it than My December, so if you liked 'Behind these hazel eyes', 'Gone' and 'Walk away' off the last album than you'll like Kelly Clarkson's new album. If you weren't keen on these songs than you'll probably want to give this album a miss! ...

...wasnt advertised very well in my opinion. I think this album is absoulutely fantstic!!!!!!! When i first listened to it it took me a while to get in to it but the tunes are so catchy you have to listen more, also the bass is fantastic there is definitley a real sence of rhythm in this alubum. The lyrics are very good mostly about her trying to come out to be herself and being upset and describing her emotions in detail and you can really understand ...
