I ordered this from one of the other companies off of Amazon first and it didn't work so I ordered it from Amazon. I wanted the bonus tracks, Blush and Careful with words but I was well informed of the lack of these tracks on Amazon's CD, I went ahead and bought it anyway but make sure you are getting the songs you want before you buy this Cd, because there are a lot of versions out there.

Aly & AJ deliver themselves on their new album, Insomniatic. With the smash-hit "Potential Breakup Song", it starts off the album right. Aly & AJ's new songs on this album are just so different from their debut, and I love them. Featuring "Bullseye", "Division", also the Bonus Track "Careful with Words", this album is just an album you can keep on repeat. Also it is worth buying the BONUS TRAKC album, because "Careful with Words", is better than some of the other songs on the album.

In the "Aly & AJ in Concert" DVD, the girls asked us to join them "on the ride" (of life) with them. Unfortunately, as they matured, these uber-popular teen celebrities hit the bumpy road of relationships. As a result of both their maturity and recent experiences, this "experimental" album delves into the hope, disappointment, and anger of these complicated relationships - on a more mature level. Not all songs (particularly "Blush") are appropriate for my 9-year-old daughter. This album should be appealing to 12 - 18 year olds - the demographic that Aly (18) & AJ (16) are targeting. The album is well-produced (better than "Into The Rush") and the songs range from fast-paced ("The Potential Breakup Song", "Like Whoa", and "Careful With Words") to the ballads ("Closure", "Division", and "Silence" - my favorites). For the best results, this album should be listened to (versus heard) several times to understand the messages and appreciate the musical talent of singers, writers, and musicians.

P.S. - The bonus track, "Careful With Words", another relationship song, fits in well with the topic of the album but would not be missed by those purchasing the regular album.
