I voted for Willa. Although she was the last one to establish herself in the pop world, she clearly knew how to seperate herself. "A Toast To Men" isn't trying to be something it's not; it's simply a fun, dance song. Willa took a risk and it was worth it.
P.S. I misspelled "Have A Little Faith In Me."

None of them will make my personal chart.
Are you sure this isn't "Blandest Song of the Year" Part II because any of these 5 will easily trump all the choices listed in the "Blandest Songs" topic.

Although she was the last one to establish herself in the pop world, she clearly knew how to seperate herself. "A Toast To Men" isn't trying to be something it's not; it's simply a fun, dance song. Willa took a risk and it was worth it. Having one top 20 pop single does not make Willa "established". Heck, with that definition, I guess artists like Baz Luhrmann and Afroman are established pop artists...  I have not heard "The Voice Within" yet (although I do have the CD), but based on the choices, i will vote for "Me Against The Music" which I believe to be one of the top 30 pop records released this year. |

Willa is an established singer because in her controversial song "Tired," she states "Tired of the girls who look like me/Tired of the people saying 'Britney'." All these wannabe singers copied Willa!
BTW, her new biography said "I Wanna Be Bad" was #10!

Haven't heard the Britney or Willa songs, but I'm sure I don't need to in order to make my pick.. easily The Voice Within, with Have A Little Faith In Me not too far behind.

I haven't heard the Willa Ford song, but out of the remaining choices, I'd have to pick "The Voice Within"

Everyone is missing out! Listen to Willa's new single "A Toast To Men" at www.willaford.org (with video!) or her official site www.willaford.com ! It's no wonder the single is rising up the chart... even faster than Lillix and Nick Lachey! :o :o :o |

I really love "Me Against the Music." It's probably my favorite song on radio. I hope she can make Top 5, but it doesn't look like it at this point...Oh well, Britney always sells regardless of radio play. But a Top 5 hit couldn't hurt...
"The Voice Within" is a formidable ballad, though it's very Disney-esque, in my opinion. By any other artist, I would predict that it wouldn't chart, but I was baffled by "CHUD"'s success, so why not this as well?
"Have a Little Faith in Me" is a very subtle, sweet song. Nothing too standout, but very effective nonetheless. I wish radio would pick up on it, but it's not upbeat enough, and Mandy doesn't have the power to propel a hit by name alone (see Christina Aguilera). This one should have been sent to Adult radio and marketed there, where it might have met with more success (or perhaps disdain from those who might claim it doesn't live up to the original.) Who knows?
"With You" is all right, but it just doesn't sound like single-material. If this is one of the best songs off of "In This Skin," I'm not really all that compelled to buy the whole album. Maybe her hit TV show will help what would have otherwise been a miserable failure of a single.
"A Toast to Men" is so laughably simplistic and predictable, it's actually entertaining. Its droning actually begins to "hypnotize" you into singing its repetitive "hook" over and over again. Amazing...

I chose Mandy only because I think Britney, Christina, and Willa are trash.
Jessica was a close second.
But overall, I really don't like any of them.

It was a really tough choice between Me Against The Music and The Voice Within, but I went with Britney since I'm really gonna remember that song years from now.
