It might not be my favorite Olsen Twins album, but it gets my highest rating compared to any of their others. Other than the closing, short and isolated track "Mom's Song (We Think We'll Keep You)", which is too obviously self-referential to their previous album "Brother For Sale, 50 Cents" (BFS,50C), every song on this album is great. The lyrical musings of Ashley's "Double Up" opens the album and you just know your ears are in for a pre-pubescent pud-poppin' treat as soon as it starts to play. That masterwork is followed by Mary-Kate's "I Am the Cute One" (IAtC1), a brilliant song. Yet even though it shares the album's title, this is not her best effort on this shining disc of glory. That honor goes to the profoundly introspective number, "I Am A Kid", which might even be better than its sister tracks on BFS,50C "The New Kid" and "Identical Twins". There's no better tune to listen to on a cold, late winter morning than this one; especially if you, too, are a kid! It's the best song on the whole album. I cannot overstate this. The best song. Ashley is not to be shown up, however, as she also adds some dandies to IAtC1. My favorite is "No One Tells The President What To Do", which has to be one of the most upbeat and humorous songs ever written about a mass murderer. The tune was actually started during the BFS,50C sessions. In fact, you can see the band's first take of it in the BFS,50C movie. Uncle Joey also adds some of his best bass playing on this album, especially on the songs "One Buffalo, Two Buffali", "Don't Let Your Mom Go Shopping" and "We Love To Scream". Even their cover of "Yakety Yak" out-strips the famous Coasters rendition.

In all, I Am The Cute One just makes you wonder just where these two might tread in their future formative years. They just seem to top themselves with each new recording and if you consider that no other band or artist does it better than them, it really will be a blow to rock music the day they die two horrible, horrible deaths in an anthrax factory explosion bomb. But I think I've said too much.

This is great though it has lots of mini things for like 75 seconds inbetween songs it is defenitly going to be some thing i will keep for life!

Yes, this album called I Am The Cute One are just as Brother For Sale, so ROCKIN' cute =)I really love it and they are so sweet! The songs are so adorable =) I especially love, Double Up, I Am The Cute One, Ida Know, My Horse And Me, I Am A Kid, One Buffalo Two Buffal.. Ehh, I could write down all the songs 'cause I LOVE this album =) You can't miss it, especially not if you're a fan of Mary-Kate and Ashley =)

I had got this cd for christmas,and I love all the songs. I especially enjoy the song " I am a kid".I also have all mary kate and ashley's video tapes.

Wow. What can I say? I laughed, I cried, ....It was better than Cats!! This is by and far one of the best children's albums I have ever heard. Being a father of 6 I have seen lots of shows and heard tons of music, but this is the best to date. Congratulation Mary Kate and Ashely Olsen!!

Man! You have got to listen to this one! It is sooooo great! All of the songs and little skits are super! They were so cute when they did this! You got to get it! GOD BLESS YOU! *Sheena*

this is a very delightful and easy to listen to , even as an adult. i find myself singing the songs far after the music is turned off. My son just loves it.

I love these girls and everything about them! This is an awesome CD! I own five of their albums and recommend all of them to allof you Olsen twins fans out there! They are worth the money! :o)

This cd contains the cutest songs. It really shows just how precious they were at that age. Listen to "My Horse And Me". That song alone is well worth the money!

As host of Lame Domain Radio (a radio station for people with bad taste in music) I must say that this CD is a decent CD to add to the CD collection. But their are some better ones out there (be sure to look for Hulk Rules and Spaced out) But if you are seriously looking for music for kids, Mary-Kate and Ashley's old stuff would be pretty good I suppose, although I'd advise you to not get any of their new stuff. The Olsen Twins are going to be worse than Michael Jackson.
