OMG. Has anyone bought this CD yet. I LOVE how it says "ALL LEAD AND BACKGROUND VOCALS by Nicole and then in smaller letters, additional lead and background by Melody and then, in microscopic print, additional background vocals by the others. How is it even possible to have ALL lead and background vocals but then, at the same time, have other people sing lead and background. LMAO!

Yay Doll Domination is #4 on US iTunes. Go PCD! BTW, I have no clue about them but are Kings Of Leon really big? Or will their album go down after a couple of days?

Only on music boards like this does anyone even remotely care about the other girls of this group. lol The only one people even recognize (sometimes) is Nicole and the rest are known more as just back-up. That's the way the group was created too so I don't see the big deal. Everyone knows their place in the group and everyone knows that's how it's supposed to be. I have no problem with they way the group is set up and I think it's obvious why Nicole is the one front and center all the time. *shrugs* Anyway, I'm looking forward to getting this CD. Is that an echo I hear? LOL. I posted pretty much the same exact thing a couple pages ago. Anyway, I bought 5 CDs today and this was one of them. Almost didn't buy it because I thought I should save 10 bucks but I figured, what the hell, what's one more CD gonna do to my wallet? I have still only heard snippets so I am expecting to be blown away based on what I have heard. Oh yeah...TEAM NICOLE! Woops. lol That's what I get for skim-reading. The album is SO HOT! I'm so impressed.

"Y'all ain't ready, it's Nicole." LMAO We'll never be ready! Again, I love Nicole! That's my baby mama. I wish she would stick with PCD and let the other girls sing. Don't go solo, you ain't NO BRITNEY!

I just started listening to the album. It is pretty good so far. You can't beat $2.99 from Amazon.

I seriously love every single song on this CD. Wow, I never expected to like this album so much. The production is top-notch. I love all the nuances and effects. The whole album is pop music at its best; melodic, catchy, immediately enjoyable, infectious, fun. Even the mid-tempos and ballads are beautiful and awesome.
I could see a lot of these songs being hits: Bottle Pop, I Hate This Part, Out Of This Club (LOVE this song and all the references to other songs and just the whole vibe), Halo (standout - incredible production), Elevator (awesome chorus - very cool and different). All the rest are not standouts in terms of being single-worthy to me but they're all totally enjoyable. Even the solo tracks rock. Awesome album! Very, very pleased.

Yeah, but usually regular versions are $9.99 not $7.99, that's the price when albums are discounted. 16 tracks for $7.99 is amazing.

I can't believe I heard MAGIC on the radio today!! Although it was in a mix, but when the beat started playing I was like I know I know this song from somewhere but I just couldn't put my finger on it. And then randomly they played the first verse (several times) and then the chorus

lol at "Space" being the most popular song on the exclusive version. It's really good, though! I must say that I'm impressed - Melody has a really nice recording voice. Ashley's song is hot too!

When if is stated or implied, was changes to were. So it should be "If I WERE a Man." Just throwing that out there.

I like this album, but it is a bit long and its pretty slow and midtempo for a dance group. But I still cant get over how Nicole harmonizes with herself on I Hate This Part, how she took some of Melody's part of Take Over The World, how they have Neyo's backup vocals on Happily Never After and a guy doing backup on Elevator? Uh...you do know there is like 17 other girls in the group right?
I guess what makes it so perplexing, is how Nicole couldnt get start on her own, when this is basically the same thing musically. I guess people are more interested in the image aspect of the group

^^ Sorry. My rent is $1300 dollars for a 1-Bedroom and I have another $1000 worth of monthly expenses I have to pay for. I think Nicole will understand I need that $2.99 for dinner at McDonalds!

Why...oh WHY can't the other girls sing a bit in the songs... they did not have to do a full solo song, to me id the looked more like a group would have been really nice... it gets really borging to hear Nicole over and over... Also her solo song sucks big time...the others got better ones...

Man this album is getting some pretty harsh reviews, but can't say I disagree with them. There's an awful lot of crud on it, and it's extremely hard to sort through 85 minutes of mostly mediocrity to get to the few good tracks.

Any stores having Bonus Tracks or Anything?
I'm confused does the Normal CD have the "Red" stripe and the D.E has the "Blue" stripe?

The only song I love is "Space." I really wish Melody got to sing more. I love her voice.
