Self-professed skate punk Avril Lavigne sings that she'd "rather be anything but ordinary" on her debut. While the fact that she had a record deal by the age of 16 separates her from the pack, too often Let Go's lyrical shortcomings drag the teenager's musically impressive recording entrée into the realm of the typical. The catchy choruses of Go are substantial, though, thanks to Lavigne's riff-driven melodies and powerful vocals, which at times adopt the unorthodox intonation quirks of fellow Canadian Alanis Morrissette. The nuanced, dynamic "Losing Grip," "My World" (which perfectly captures the ennui of suburbia), and the buoyant power-pop blast "Sk8er Boi" are the collection's highlights. But Lavigne's honest yet awkward words weigh down the likes of "Mobile," "I'm with You," and "Naked." "Nobody's Fool," which displays her Pink-like take-me-as-I-am credo, hints that someday Lavigne's lyrics will match the strength of her music. --Annie Zaleski

Avril带着第三张录音室专辑《The Best Damn Thing》回来了，先前已经拿出2首做宣传，Keep Holding On去年上映的电影《龙骑士》特别录制的主题曲和8国语言版的Girlfriend 单曲集，其中包括很有意思的中文版本。整张专集的曲风比起以前更加明快，就连Avril表示新专辑的节奏会比以前的专辑快，因为现在的她有了更多现场演出的经验，“我保证这张专辑更好玩———对歌迷和我本人来说都更好玩。专辑里大概只有三首慢歌。”有些人表示对新专集失望，感觉失去了以前rock特色，太偏流行了，不过对于喜欢的声音，能再听到新专集，已经是一种享受，况且新专确实也很如耳。

With her breakthrough 2002 debut, Let Go, Avril Lavigne tried to market herself as the bona fide alternative to tarty teen queens, Britney and Christina. Her guitar-pop hits were irresistibly bratty but the whole "Complicated" teen pose was a little hard to swallow, especially since two songwriters called the Matrix--who had at least twenty years on the Canadian singer--fed her most of the material. Having had the chance to live a little, Lavigne returns to make good on her angsty image with Under My Skin, an album rippling with delightfully dour melodies and heartfelt lyrics about loneliness ("How Does It Feel") and fractured relationships ("Don't Tell Me"). Is it clichéd? Sure. Will it scare off her necktie and t-shirt wearing fans? Possibly. But there's nothing quite as satisfying as watching a teen-pop icon actually reveal her soul. --Jaan Uhelszki

空降Billboard流行专辑榜No.5一举成名大碟，坐在钢琴前的Vanessa Carlton/凡妮莎卡顿总是光芒四射,用她精湛的钢琴演奏技巧、动人的旋律以及引人入胜的歌词来传达情感丰富的音乐语言。
出生于名为Milford的宾州小,Vanessa Carlton在成长的过程中总是有音乐相伴,母亲是古典钢琴老师、父亲是Pink Floyd的头号歌迷,因此很早就广泛接触到从莫扎特到Pink Floyd、从Fleetwood Mac到PJ Harvey、从Neil Young到萧邦的各类音乐；在她终日辛勤的练琴之下展现了惊人的潜能和音乐天赋,8岁就完成生平的第一部作曲作品。
持续累积音乐创作的她,从17岁开始在纽约下曼哈顿的酒吧演出；她清新自然的歌声与创作受到音乐大厂Interscope的高层Jimmy Iovine的赏识,于是迅速获得一纸合约。
历经一年的精心雕琢,在A&M唱片公司总裁Ron Fair亲自打造的首航专辑【Be Not Nobody/一举成名】中,Vanessa Carlton以她流行灵魂唱腔诠释从古典到经典摇滚的多元曲风,时而柔情似水、时而热情如火、时而朴实真诚。从洋溢华尔滋风情的-Ordinary Day-揭开序曲,Vanessa Carlton带领乐迷进行一趟游历异想境地的奇幻旅程；热情洋溢的首发单曲-A Thousand Miles-在Billboard流行、成人单曲榜双双攀升Top 5；而流行曲-Pretty Baby-、绝美交响乐烘托着的-Twilight-和强力节拍的硬式-Unsung-…在在展现Vanessa Carlton的不同风情,而她重新演Rolling Stones冠军名曲-Paint It Black-的声音表情,更让人惊艳不已。
唤醒人类深层欲望、引起强烈情绪共鸣的【Be Not Nobody】更备受乐评肯定,滚石杂志将她列名为2002年最值得期待的十位艺人之一、称她为「流行版的Fiona Apple」、赞赏她纯熟严谨的钢琴弹奏技巧,并认为其音乐作品蕴含媲美Tori Amos的古典元素、丰富乐音及的和谐合声。点此收缩

In the United Kingdom, New Zealand-born Natasha Bedingfield and brother Daniel Bedingfield have seemingly taken up permanent residence at the top of the pop charts. He's an earnest rocker with a dance music bent. She's an altogether more exciting prospect--a singer-songwriter who refuses to sit still, charging through decadent R&B ("Single"), jittery electro-pop ("I'm A Bomb") and first-class balladry ("I Bruise Easily"), invoking the likes of Beyonce and Gwen Stefani. And, okay, sometimes Nelly Furtado. An all-star production team, including former Robbie Williams collaborator Guy Chambers, makes for a debut that sounds like an instant greatest-hits set--just add cheekbones.

Natasha Bedingfield的处女专辑《Unwritten》在英美两地都获得不错的成绩,特别是同名单曲"Unwritten"在英美的各大排行榜上取得的骄人战绩,让大家都认识了这位来自英国的才女Natasha Bedingfield.在06年的Billboard年终单曲榜上"Unwritten"排在了第6名,Natasha Bedingfield和James Blunt这两位来自英国新人在美国能有如此的成绩是让所有人都羡慕的.Natasha Bedingfield的第二张专辑《NB》也于4月30日发行,喜欢Natasha Bedingfield和流行音乐的朋友又有福了.

Deluxe edition of her most recent US album. Includes 5 bonus dance remixes plus a DVD with live concert performances and video's.

Best Kept Secret is an album of unreleased songs recorded by Leona Lewis before her time on The X-Factor. Simon Cowell was reportedly angered by the release of the album. It was released two weeks after her debut album Spirit, on 26 November 2007, through Juno Records, though all trace of the album was removed from Juno the same day.

2007年10月，Leona第2支单曲Bleeding Love一发行就排到英国单曲榜的首位，并在首周销量超过20万张，也成为本年度销售最快的单曲。一系列的出色的成绩使得Leona受到了更多外界的关注。即将发行的专辑就请来Walter Afanasieff, Dallas Austin, Scott Storch, Jimmy Jam and Terry Lewis和Damon Dash等大牌制作人来担当创作！这些著名的人士都被Leona有生具来的音乐天赋所惊叹，并十分乐意为新专辑尽自己一份力，这也让专辑在质量上有了很大的保证。
特意翻的资料，之前就很关注Leona。觉得她的声音简直可以完美来形容，尤其是听了她所有现场演唱后，更加由赞美转到了由衷的佩服。一个才22岁的女子就有如此不可多得的才华，实在可以让每个和她同龄的女孩为之惊叹。谈下她的单曲"A Moment Like This"，又一种演绎的方式，别样的风格，和Kelly Clarkson的版存在很大不同，尤其是在旋律上更加舒缓自然，将Leona的抒情嗓音展现淋漓尽致，轻柔间又透着张力，在低音与高音间游刃有余的滑动，让我们知道，这，就是冠军的实力！大家必须听的，超级推荐的作品！听到没？必须下！！
PS:Leona Lewis凭借06年底英伦选秀节目The X Factor的第三季展露头角，首张单曲A Moment Like This与06年12月20日以网路下载的形式发行, 立刻以30分钟被下载50, 000次而大获全胜, 从而打破世界纪录!Leona12岁开始写歌, 15岁时和音乐制作人Marley J Wills录制了Minnie Riperton的Lovin' You(让我感觉到了Mariah的味道,Leona唱的叫棒~大家可以听听,海豚音堪称经典再现~!!~)因此被Sony邀请到美国。
PS:当音乐生涯停滞不前, 心灰意冷的Leona Lewis想要放弃时, 男友劝她参加歌唱选秀节目The X Factor.2006年, Lewis参加了The X Factor的第三季演唱Over The Rainbow, 她一路过五关斩六将杀到了决赛，终于在06年12月16日夺得冠军! 同时签下了一百万英镑的录音合同。
