Chris Daughtry Reviewed

Having downloaded Daughtry’s new album, I expected to hear originality. Fresh songs. But I was let down. He didn’t divagate from the commercial sounding elements. He was not adventurous. Pity, a great voice, thwarted by a mediocre album.

After listening to it for the third time, I began to find his songs are OKAY. But still, nothing phenomenal. Even SLASH (my favorite lead guitarist after Richie Sambora of course!) couldn’t save this album from becoming a dud.

Spare your boodles (unless you have the hots for this bloke) and hope that he returns with a more refined album the next time around.

The first single, “It’s Not Over” is simply too cliched. Ho hum stuff. “Feels Like Tonight” sounds like a song you’ve heard before. “Home” is not too bad. Slash-powered “What I Want” doesn’t have a catchy chorus, just some kickass guitar playing by Slash. 5/10

Daughtry – Home

Well I’m going home, back to the place where I belong,
And where your love has always been enough for me.
I’m not running from. No, I think you got me all wrong,
I don’t regret this life I chose for me.
But these places and these faces I can’t ignore
So I’m going home. Well I’m going home.

CD is bland, soulless and entirely lacking in charisma. Pity, tho… he does have a good voice (not the best in the business, but good nonetheless).

Jemima He’s got a great voice, but don’t bother with this album.

Sha Well, he should’ve taken some risks.

Che-Cheh Indeed, Mr Baldy.

Keropok My thoughts exactly.

Eww. Just eww. Never took a liking to this guy cause he takes himself too seriously. And not that impressed with his vocals either. But I’m sure that’s just me.

I thought the song was quite ok… anyway, I hoped he had won the American Idol… but looks like he’s doing pretty good now…

honestly I thought the dude was quite crap. But hey, I think John Mayer is cool. You can shoot me.

Izad LOL. Nice one! Well, I think he’s got great vocals – he just needs to find a right manager/producer/songwriter.

Joash I’m not sure whether he’s doing pretty good. Female fans are swooning over this bloke, but soon, he will be forgotten.

Lex John Mayer the spastic is the epitome of crap. What’s wrong with ya? LOL.
