Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Thinking It Over was originally titled "To Those Who Wait" and considering Hear’say have released two albums and are already yesterday’s chip paper it would have been a very appropriate title. The delay was in legal wrangles over their name but with all that behind them, and a shiny "X" appended to their moniker, they can unleash their poppy brand of US-styled R&B and UK two-step. Apart from the title track which was co-written by Pete from Artful Dodger, the big single has to be "Just A Little"; slinky, sexy with an acoustic punch courtesy of producers Big Pockets and Brad Gilderman, (Destiny’s, Jay-Z).

With UK R&B still not receiving the attention of its peers in the US, there is a need to go poppy in order to get any airplay. It works for Mis-teeq and Blue but to be extra safe, for much of their material Liberty X distance themselves from their UK roots, yet still squeeze the cheese, leaving them with a pop sound somewhere in the middle of the Atlantic.

Although three singles have already been lifted from it there are still a few more potentials such as "No Clouds", a homage to feeling good on a sunny day complete with rap interlude and S Club-esque chorus or for when the season dictates a ballad, "Holding On for You" has all the key elements for across-the-board appeal.

As with a lot of pop albums, many of the songs are mere fillers but what sets Thinking It Over apart is that even the weak songs sound different to the one before so it never gets too tedious. Definitely worth the wait.--Georgina Collins

5.0 out of 5 stars EXCELLENT!!, 26 Dec 2002
This review is from: Thinking It Over (Audio CD)
1. Thinking It Over

Great track to kick off the album with. It gives you a sort of taster of what to expect from the rest of the record, with its garage beats and top harmonies! This is probably one of my favourites! 9/10

2. Just A Little

Amazing track! I knew it'd go straight to number 1 from the second i heard it. Very sexy with raunchy lyrics and vocals. You can't help but dancing along to this beat. Great come back single! 10/10

3. Doin It

This song has a sort of Spanish feel to it. Again very raunchy as you might of guessed from the title. Top vocals and great sound effects. Fairly upbeat. 8/10

4. Wanting Me Tonight

This is song is definitely one of my favourites. Its sort of a mix between RnB and garage. Much better than the Wookie Remix on the 'Just A Little' CD 2.You'll be singing the chorus in no time! 10/10

5. Got To Have Your Love

This is a cover of Manotrix's hit. It remains pretty similar to the original but its still brill! Kelli's singing is top! This is a grower as at first I couldn't really see myself singing along to it, but now im totally addicted to it. I personally think its one of the strongest songs on the album despite what some people have said. It does seem a bit out of place as the majority of the album is Rnb/Pop/Garage influenced and this is very discoteque and funky. But it gives the album a wide musical variety! 9/10

6. No Clouds

This first appeared as a b-side to the 'Thinking It Over' CD. However it has been adgusted slightly for the album release. This time round, the vocals are more clear and effective. Definitely the poppiest song on the album, but still you wont be able to get the catchy chorus out of your head. Great song to listen to first thing on a sunny Saturday morning. Kelli also has a go at MCing on this. Not bad at all. 7/10

7. Everyday

Kevin and Tony take lead vocals in this song. This has a far more mature sound to it and its again a big favourite of mine. The verses start of quite RnBish and laid back and then the chorus comes in and it brings a slight rocky feel with it. The violins in the background sound like Destiny's Child 'Survivor'. 9/10

8. Saturday

This is a great party song. You'll know the chorus in no time. This'll get you in the mood in no time. Thing I like about this one, is all the members have a go at singing. Michelle's voice is wicked! Edgy Pop/ RnB. Definite number 1 if released. 10/10

9. Holding On For You

This is the only ballad on the album and yet it isnt that slow. Its got a very Atomic Kitten 'Whole Again' feel to it. Jessica sings most, but all the members get a go. Nice tune and vocals. 8/10

10. I Got What You Want

This starts of with a classical violin intro and then it suddenly zooms into Tony singing. Very upbeat and very RnB. Great song! You'll be dancing in no time. This is personally my overall favourite! 10/10

11. Feel The Rush

This song nearlly didnt make the UK version of this album, and thank God it did!! Great rhythm and tune. Michelle singing in this is ace!! Its sort of Edgy Pop. This is also a great party track and also a definite number 1! 10/10

12. Right Here Right Now

This is a great chill out song, great choice to start closing the album. Kevin sings lead with again great vocals. RnB laid back feel to it. I wouldnt suggest releasing it but still wicked track! 8/10

13. Dream About It

This song starts off with Michelle and Kevin talking outside a club. Its suddenly goes straight into the song. The chours is similar to 'Thinking It Over' in how the girls sing a part then the boys 'reply'. Great party and pop track with wicked sound effects! 8/10

14. Never Give Up

This is an outro in which they talk about how they chose to not listen to what people said and go their own way. Its only 1m27s, but a good way to conclude a brill well thought over album!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Top 'X' rated tunes, 28 May 2002
By Gregg Nicholson (Norwich, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Many people will buy this album on the strength of latest single 'Just a Little', and won't be dissapointed. This album contains three hit singles already, all of which are extremely listenable.

Liberty X have done for me what Hear'say did not - convinced me that they really are Popstars! The vocals are really good - these guys have really cool voices - and the productions has not been rushed.

The garage tinged influence of first single, 'Thinking It Over', is largely abandoned for the rest of the album which is mainly R'n'B.

'Got To Have Your Love' jumps out and bites you on the nose - a cover that is extremely groovy and radio friendly - a future dancefloor hit for certain. 'Holding On For You' is a beautiful ballad - one of the best I have heard in years - and the harmonies and lyrics are really sweet. There are plenty of other good songs in the mid tempo R'n'B style and the sound never gets cheesy.

I'm really pleased for Liberty X - they have proved many people wrong and this album shows that the time taken to release this collection was well spent. They are going to have long term appeal. If you are unsure of whether to buy this - don't be - BUY IT!

5.0 out of 5 stars A WICKED DEBUT ALBUM FROM THE FUNKY LIBERTY X, 28 May 2002
By A Customer
Finally Liberty X have released their funky and fresh debut album which is well written and smoothly produced with a nice blend of musical styles. Liberty X have chosen to go for a mature sound which is pulled off well with some great harmonies and backing tracks. Kelly's vocals sound amazing and Kevin has one of the most distinctive male voices in pop.

Some heavyweight producers worked on this album, Pete Devereux of artful dodger fame, K-Gee and Michelle Escoffery to name a few.

The first three tracks are the first three fantastic singles that they have released, the garage influenced debut single "Thinking it over", the no 1 smash "Just a little Bit" and the funky "Doin it" There are another 11 tracks on top of that, a mixture of pop/rnb and uk garage.

Apart from the three singles, stand out tracks for me are "No clouds" a slow/mid tempo track with a nice melody for the chorus. "Holding on for you" is a beautiful ballad which features fantastic vocals and has a real feel good factor about it, "Feel the rush" is a really funky up tempo number" and "Right here right now" is a really cool garage track. All of the tracks on this album are very strong, and could be considered to be released as a single. We get to hear all members on lead vocals on this album which is always nice with a group.

The 1 disappointment for me on this album is the lack of slow songs! Theres only really the above-mentioned "Holding on for you" which really showcases their vocal talent. Apart from that the pace is pretty much mid/up tempo tunes!

It goes to show the best things come to those who wait! It's hard to believe these 5 were turned away in favour of Noel, Kym Danny, Myleene and Suzanne on the TV show popstars! But hey I'm glad they were not chosen and I bet they are now too. Now they truly are "Doin It"

Liberty X have shown that they are the TRUE winners of Popstars!!

All I can say is GIVE ME JUST A LITTLE BIT MORE!!!!
