4.0 out of 5 stars Good tracks and nice beats. But easy on the POP side...., January 10, 2005

I have to admit that this album. Which is sold as an import. It sounds just right sometimes. But I think this album would be a little on that silly bubble-gum popmusic that most teenagers are into. I think they would need to rethink their next album. Most fans nowadays are matured listeners and want matured music. Don't get me wrong, this album is good, I mean GOOD!!!!! But contains too much kids stuff that is way below Mis-Teeq's true potential. If you wanna dance to some good music than this album is for you. But if your matured and like stuff like Hilary Duff's new single "FLY" or rock/pop/R&B Artists. Then you may need to hear it first, in case you don't like it. But Eye Candy is seriously as it sounds like. Pop candy or in other words, a more POP feel. But anyway put some hands in the air for MIS-TEEQ again!

5.0 out of 5 stars One of the best of 2003, August 19, 2003

If not the best! I was always a fan of Mis-Teeq, but I like them even more now I have this CD. I got it on Saturday August 16th, and haven't taken it out of my CD player since. I'm listening to it right now, actually. This CD is much more then the first two singles. Track rundown:

1. My Song
This has a short intro at the beginning, introducing the Mis-Teeq girls, then it kicks into a RnB garage number, with storming music and a strong chorus. Good start to the CD. 4/5
2. Scandalous (StarGate Radio Mix)
This is on the radio everytime you turn it on right now, but this song gets better and better everytime you hear it! I love the chorus and Alesha's bridge. I love the lyrics too! 5/5
3. Can't Get It Back
This is Mis-Teeq's current single, and while I like it, it's not one of my favourite tracks. I love the music at the beginning, and the catchy chorus. 4/5
4. Dance Your Cares Away
Fantastic music! I love the beginning and the chorus is really catchy. This has great feel good lyrics. 5/5
5. All In One Day
This song is weird! It recalls a normal day in Mis-Teeq's world, starting with getting out of bed, up to going to bed with their man. It has some weird lyrics, but overall is pretty good. 4.5/5
6. Strawberrez
This song seems to go on forever (it's 5:25). You'll hate it the first time you hear it, but as time goes on and you listen to it more, it'll grow on you. I love the vocals and the music in the track. The ad-libs in this song, last for 3 and half minutes, but it'll seem shorter once you've listened to the song a few times. 5/5
7. Nitro
This is a rocking track! Alesha is such a good rapper. I love the powerful chorus, and the reference to their debut album "Lickin' On Both Sides". It was one of my favourites the first time I listened to the album. 5/5
8. Home Tonight (featuring Joe)
Ooooh, I LOVE this song! It's sooo beautiful. The part where Joe sings is amazing (now I know why so many people say he's good at love songs). The word to describe this track is SEXY. It's very sensual, but also ballady. I loved it the first time I heard it. My second favourite on the CD. 5/5
9. That's Just Not Me (featuring Baby Cham)
MY FAVOURITE! I LOVE this song!!!! OMG, this is fantastic! I love the music on this track, it's soooo cute! Baby Cham is a new name, he raps and he sounds like Shaggy. The chorus is really catchy and you'll find yourself singing along in no time. 5,000,000/5
10. How Does It Feel
Love this song too. The music is really cool, and you'll have the chorus stuck in your head for ages (I had it in my head for a whole day). It's a favourite on the first listen. 5/5
11. Best Friends
This has cool futuristic music at the beginning. It sounds like it might be slow, but after 10 or so seconds, it kicks into a steady beat. 4.5/5
12. It's Beginning To Feel Like Love
The only song on the entire album that didn't hit me as being outstanding. It's too slow and deary for me. It's ok. 3/5
13. Just For You

This song shows the Mis-Teeq girls individual voices and personalites. They each get their own bit to sing/rap. Alesha goes first, then Su-Elise and finally Sabrina. Sabrina sounds the best on this song, her verse is funky. 5/5

Favourite songs in order (very hard to list):

1. That's Just Not Me (featuring Baby Cham)
2. Home Tonight (featuring Joe)
3. Nitro
4. Scandalous
5. Strawberrez

I like nearly every song on the album. Most of the tracks have amazing music. The two best tracks have people featured on them, but the guests don't overpower the girls at all.
Mis-Teeq will go far, they'd be popular in the USA, with this kind of sound - a mix of RnB/Garage/Pop.
One of the best CDs of 2003 - definitely my favourite!

This review is from: Eye Candy (Audio CD)

Mis-Teeq has a unique sound that makes them stand out from the rest of the Brit-pop girl groups--a harder edge with just the right amount of dirty. This sound makes the best tracks really move; so much so, you don't even care if the lyrics are silly. The slow songs in the middle are awkward, but it picks up quickly and hits the spot.
