5.0 out of 5 stars Amazing, 7 May 2003
By A Customer
This is the best album I have bought in ages - a mix of both pop an R&B sound and even a slight indie vibe - it's great. This is the debut album from Kelly Clarkson - the winner of American Idol but don't write her off because of that. She has an amazing voice and i love all the tracks on this album.
Track 1 - A slow ballad with excellent vocals. It is another cheesy pop ballad but Kelly's vocals alway sound stunnning on these power ballads. 9/10
Track 2 - Miss independent - I thought this song sounded a little weird at first but then it grew on me and the mix of the background and vocals sounds gr8. 8/10
Track 3 - The backing track sounds similar to an avril lavigne song but it's still a pop/slightly indie feel track. 10/10
Track 4 - This is probably my least favourite track on the album. The bluesy pop feel is great and even though it's my least fav it's still gd. The accompaniment is quite simple and slow which is probably why I don't like it as much - it's too simple. 6/10

Track 5 - This is a bluesy feeling ballad with some excellent lyrics. IT's again got a simple accompanniment but it's jsut right for the song. 8/10
Track 6 - A great song with a mix of different sounds - pop music with the feel of a dawsons creek soundtrack and a slight indie feel in the bridge. 8/10
Track 7 - This is a mid-tempo song with a strong pop vibe to it. It's one of my favourite tracks on the album. 10/10
Track 8 - This is a duet sung with Tamyra Gray another American Idol finalist. Their voices mix together great in this mid tempo song with a strong guitar and drums accompaniment. 8/10
Track 9 - Again this has a bluesy feel to it but is still pop too. 8/10
Track 10 - Anytime - I heard this on AI2 band fell in love with it but i love the album mix even more. It's a typical pop ballad but Kelly's vocals shine throughout the song. 10/10
Track 11 - A power ballad with a simple accompaniment, an acoustic guitar sound. Again her vocals are stunning and I fell in love with this song the moment I heard it. 10/10
Track 12 - This is a typical cheesy pop song but Kelly's vocals sound amazing on this track and makes it worth listenening to. 9/10

5.0 out of 5 stars A superb album from the ultimate Idol !!!, 4 May 2003
By A. Jones (Swindon, UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
If you do not know who Kelly Clarkson is,you soon will be after listening to this album. She in fact was the winner of American Idol, and she has put together a superb album, which put our Pop Idols albums to shame.

The debut single,'A Moment Like This',a ballad,was the fastest single in the US for years. Even though the ballads on this album is superb, it is the songs 'Miss Independent' and 'You Thought Wrong' (a duet with Tamyra Gray,another contestant out of American Idol),which takes the album onto another planet.

If you get one album this year,get this one.....You won't be disappointed.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic Debut!, 29 Aug 2003
I decided to buy this album after hearing rave reviews about it and am glad I did as it is fantastic. Kelly Clarkson has a brilliant voice and the tracks are all great too - A great debut from a well deserved American Idol

1)The Trouble With Love Is - 9/10
The opening track is a slow number and a great opening to the album which showcases Kelly's vocals perfectly.
2)Miss Independent - 9/10
This track is her first single in the U.K. and is quite rocky when it gets going. It was co-wriiten by Christina Aguilera.
3)Low - 10/10
Arguably one of the best tracks on the album and Kelly's third single in America. Again it is quite rocky and tells the story of the heartbreak of a break up with a boyfriend.
4)Some Kind of Miracle - 8/10
A slow, romantic number and Kelly sings it with real emotion.
5)What's Up Lonely - 10/10
Another brilliant song. Quite soulfull and great for chilling out to.
6)Just Missed the Train - 9/10
Another rocky sounding track with a catchy chorus.

7)Beautiful Disaster - 9/10
A great pop/rock song.
8)You Thought Wrong - 9/10
A duet with another contestant from American Idol and a very catchy pop song although its hard to tell whos singing what and sometimes they sound like they are trying to compete with each other!
9)Thankful - 9/10
Sounds quite soul like, very catchy and mellow.
10)Anytime - 10/10
Heard her perform this on American Idol 2 and she sounded fantastic. Powerful ballad and Kelly sounds great on it.
11)A Moment Like This - 10/10
Her debut single in America - another fantastic ballad with a very catchy tune.
12)Before Your Love - 8/10
The double A side with A Moment Like This - another moving ballad

All in all this album is well worth buying.
