iTunes says the album is coming out July 16. Interesting... WHAT?! She must be spending the next 2 weeks recording pre-written songs non-stop. It's a smart idea though. Now that Idol's fading in popularity, strike while the iron's hot with the winner. |

Smartest thing they could possibly do! So glad they're releasing in the summer. That'll really help build sales off of the steam from the win.
This girl is the real deal. Best vocalist to come out of Idol in a long time, and the best winner to come in over half of a decade.

If anyone should become Idol's next big success story, it's Candice!

The album cover isn't too cute.  The single cover is much, much better. The lyrics of the single are still pretty cheesy but the studio version made me like the song more. And she sounds amazing although that goes without saying. |

I love both of the covers, actually. I think she looks gorgeous.

Definitely my favorite winner since Carrie Underwood! I never heard a bad vocal performance from Candice and I wish her much success.

I'm not sure how I feel about the album coming out this soon. I understand the reasoning I just hope it isn't generic song after generic song since a lot of time isn't going to be out into it

I'm not sure how I feel about the album coming out this soon. I understand the reasoning I just hope it isn't generic song after generic song since a lot of time isn't going to be out into it My thinking is that they've been collecting songs for weeks now, probably running them by Candice too, and compiling some of the best. Some are certain to be generic fillers - but you only need one or two gems to be a success. That's what I'm hoping for, any more than that would be icing on the cake. There are certainly pros and cons to an early rushed release, but this is the first time they're rushing it (two months after the finale), so I'm interested to see if the result will be any different. I think back to Carrie's debut - her album was practically created in the same amount of time because they started it after the tour, and look at it now - 7 million albums later, it remains Idol's biggest selling album, and perhaps one of the most rushed ones too. Nevertheless, it doesn't matter how much time is put into it, if the music is good, it's good. So we'll see, but I'm sure Candice won't let us down. With those killer vocals, she can make anything sound great. |

Her single is terrible to me but I'm hopeful the quick release was planned all along, which means there will be some quality material on there.

I love the album title - and I'm so happy for her. This style of music isn't usually my thing (I'm a country girl), but I'll have to listen and maybe think about buying it.
And that album cover is beautiful. Simple, but beautiful.

The single isn't doing that well on iTunes. I hope they don't even send it to radio and give us a real lead single with some actual radio appeal in a couple weeks.

It's #12 now, and that's not bad - I don't think. I agree, I'd rather see a different single sent to radio, but at least it's performing well on iTunes thus far. |

I am fine with this going to pop, in fact it should. What needs to come out in the next few weeks is the Urban single.

I agree. The single and album covers are very nice. Love the way they've done the letters. Very glamorous.
They must've taken pictures of everybody early on, because didn't the purple in her hair disappear around top 6 or top 5?

Heavy on the unless.
