Finally! My body is literally READY. I really enjoyed her dance singles but she has such a beautiful singing voice so this kinda music suits her perfectly. Can't wait!

This sounds like something they would've played on Gossip Girl.

Your Love's A Drug is a brilliant summer song that truly has yet to be matched since its release. What a shame such far shittier music has received the spotlight.
But I have no vested interest in her as an artist. The music will have to be great.

"Body Control" is still my JAM. This new song is cute, but I really like the direction she was going in before.

I always liked Leighton—hoping the album is more varied than this singer-songwriter shtick she's doing now. It's a bit sleepy.
Echoing the sentiments above, "Your Love's a Drug" was a favorite but I actually really dug her stuff on the Country Strong soundtrack as well.

Her pop songs were SO good ugh. YLAD, Body Control, Somebody to Love, Front Cut - all gems. This is nice too but just not as exciting lol. I love her voice though.

Heartstrings is great and refreshing. Her music career and her attitude in general kind of remind me of Brittany Murphy. Random, I know.

Heartstrings is very soothing. I love it. I understand why most here prefer her pop music, but if she isn't going to score a major label deal I don't know that I see much point in her sticking to pop - we'd just be frustrated every time she put out a great song that went nowhere due to lack of budget and attention. I also never got the sense that music was ever more for her than a side venture...if she was serious about trying to launch a successful commercial career she wouldn't be going this route, I am sure.

I guess a change of style should be anticipated when an album is delayed for over four years, especially given that her celebrity has died down quite a bit, but I have absolutely no interest in this. I would have loved to hear some of the music she recorded when they were still trying to market her as a pop artist.

I only song I liked was the title track, mostly because it sounds like Lana Del Rey. The rest isn't awful, but there's just nothing special about it

"Run Away" is far and away the best thing on this record, so good.

I still genuinely love this album, even if it got basically zero promo from her label/no real public push.
It debuted at #139 on the Billboard 200 - does anyone know the sales figures?

Nah. She's richer than anyone on Pulse. No sympathy needed.
