   Actually Nic, I was sorta expecting the same thing, I thought there was going to be at least a few heavy Electronic/Jazz type of songs. I thought there could be a Bjork/Imogean Heap type of deal. I am definetly not saying I am not thrilled with the album, I am, especially for a Debut album. I just thought it would be less Pop-ish.

   Butet,

   I think if Blake called ALL the shots, there would have been a few REALLY funky experimental electronic songs on his CD. I was pretty bummed that SLTW didn’t make the cut :(((. But, let’s face it, whack ass techno would NOT get mainstream radio airplay and that’s obviously the goal here for Arista. I’m still damn satisfied with the album itself, but like you, I have to admit I sort if wish there were less of a pop vibe to it.

   The same thing happened with Daughtry for me - I was feeling let down when I first heard his CD because I was expecting more hard rock and not so much POP rock (!!). But, then I realized that I still really liked the songs and would have to accept that he needed to be mainstream to sell CD’s.

   LOL, yeah, I think if he did call all the shots. His album would be have a Parental Advisory sticker on it.
   LMAO, whack ass techno? LOL, Blakes old stuff wasnt techno, it was electro. But I agree, its not main stream at all.
   Out of the entire album the most electro track is the intro and outro, well from what i hear.

   BUT I STILL THINK ITS A CRAZY, SICK ASS ALBUM! And I am glad it is fairly mainstream, it gets more people to listen to him.

   Butet,

   well, whack ass techno-electro then ;). Some of his pre-Idol songs kinda resembled trance-rave type music to me. The electro you hear on the Top 40 radio is much more POP than what Blakey was doing, so I know why TPTB steered him in this direction but I still wish he could have put one REALLY electro-techno song on there besides his intro and outro. Maybe some of the other interludes are like that too….

   Wow, those new clips are much better sounding! Thx JPN fan :) LOL I like She’s Makin Me Lose It more every time I hear it.

   Michelle,

   I also like “She’s Makin’ me Lose It” much better after hearing both the B & Noble and Wal-Mart song clips, very M5 pop-rock sound. I do wonder how our perceptions of these songs will be once we hear a FULL-LENGTH version of each song? Like, will any of our favorites change or not….
