5.0 out of 5 stars Jessica:Simp-ly Irresistible, June 8, 2001

This review is from: Irresistible (Audio CD)

This is Jessica Simpson's highly anticipated 2nd piece of work & might I add that I was extremely impressed.I had heard negative reviews coming from peeps but 1 of my mottos is to have your own experiences & not believe evrything u hear or read.

1.IRRESISTIBLE-5/5 This is the peppy title track that introduces the world to the new & improved Jessica.It's a good song to dance to! Especially in a club!

2.A LITTLE BIT-5/5 "It's not about who's weak or strong,it's about what I need to make this last" ahhh,I love that line in Jessica's informed 2nd single,great choice Simpson clan! I looove this tune! Alot of girl power & attitude!

3.FOREVER IN YOUR EYES-4/5 This is 1 of the 2 songs that Nick,Jess's beau wrote,it shows us the more sensual & passionate side of her.Basically it shows how Jess has changed from a sweet 17 yr.old girl from TX to a mature 21 yr.old woman who's in control.

4.THERE YOU WERE (Duet w/ Marc Anthony)-5/5 I love anything M.Anthony does so u can bet I loved this! It's a very thoughtful song,it sounds like it's gonna b a theme to a movie!

5.WHAT'S IT GONNA BE-5/5 A Britney-inspired track,it's a booty-boppin' type of song! ROCK ON! GIRL POWER!

6.WHEN U TOLD ME U LOVED ME-5/5 A sad Jess ballad,it's a tearjerker.I like how it's peaceful & easy 2 listen 2,she doesn't get really high in the singing in this song...nuff said! My third fave!

7.HOT LIKE FIRE-5/5 My fave on the album,I'm actually feeling a young Michael Jackson when she starts getting really into the song! I dunno why,hehe.It's Jess telling off her cheating lover.MORE POWER 2 JESS!

8.IMAGINATION-4/5 I looove,love,love the beats in this song,really creative.Really catchy lyrics! "I wished upon a star 2night,that u would grant my wish 2night,I wish I may I wish I might,have a wish I wished tonight,take me 2 the 1 in my imagination!"

9.TO FALL IN LOVE AGAIN-3/5 The 2nd song Nick wrote,it,again shows us the more grown up Jess,I wouldn't dream of Jess singing this.Especially how she sings it! On the + side,the lyrics are pretty good!

10.FOR YOUR LOVE-5/5 I love this song! It's one of my faves! The vocals are awesome! It has very meaningful lyrics unlike some other artists *cough* Britney *cough*.

11.I NEVER-3/5 This is produced by Rodney Jerkins,it's easy to tell bcuz all his songs have the same beat & Jess says "Darkchild" in the beginning.It's a hot song! Jess wasn't joking when she said she was going more R&B

12.HIS EYE IS ON THE SPARROW-4/5 I like the Lauryn Hill version on Sister Act 2 more than Jess's gospel version but u can tell that she would also succeed in the gospel/CCM circuit but I love the instruments & the gospel choir! Jess used to sing this at church when she was a little girl!

4.0 out of 5 stars Ok- so it is pop.... so what?, June 13, 2001

By 

Karen M Erickson (Albuquerque, New Mexico United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Irresistible (Audio CD)

OK, yeah- this CD is straight up pop. Not really much substance, not much creativity...but who cares? It's hot. The songs are fun, energetic and just cool. Honestly, yeah, she is copying Britney. But y'all- think about it. Britney has sold like ten million albums, is admired by many (hated by many.....but we're not talking about that!), and worshipped by just about every single guy in the world. Who wouldn't want that? Maybe she would use this Cd as a vehicle to acheive success and then put out strong, expressive music. Think about this too, Madonna started singing pop that everyone wrote her off. Now, the same critics are salivating over her. So, who are y'all to say this is limiting her career? Sorry- It just bugs me! Ok- the CD. I bought it cuz I like the single "Irresistable". it's a sugary-pop, radio friendly, over produced song. So?!!!!! It has fun beats, is catchy, and just straight up enjoyable. The rest of the Cd basically follows suit. So if you like good pop- this CD is for you. For everyone else who complains about even the single- why exactly did you get this CD if you don't like pop? What were you expecting? Some groundbreaking material? that it's not. But it's fun, lighthearted and catchy as hell.

5.0 out of 5 stars Jessica is Irresistible!, June 10, 2001

By 

Brittany (Southern California) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Irresistible (Audio CD)

Jessica Simpson's new record Irresistible is just that - Irresistible. The uptempos are fun loving, and hipper then those off her 1999 debut, Sweet Kisses. Of course "Irresistible" is exellent but other tracks that just happened to be fast and amazing include, "What's It Gonna Be," "Hot Like Fire," and "I Never" (which is produced by Rodney 'Darkchild' Jerkins.) Miss Simpson's ballads from Sweet Kisses were powerful and emotional, but Irresistible's ballads are much more dramatic. My favorite by far is "When You Told Me You Loved Me," which was written by Walter Afanasieff who writes with diva Mariah Carey on every album. The song definitely has a Mariah feel to it, but Jessica's vocals complete it. "To Fall In Love Again" was written by Afanasieff, as well as her sweetheart Nick Lachey. This album is minus a guest appearance from Nick like Sweet Kisses did with "Where You Are," but is equipped with a duet with Latin singer, Marc Anthony ("There You Were"). Concluding Irresistible, Jessica chose the gospel verse "His Eye Is On The Sparrow," which is by far the most interesting track on the album starting off slow but ending up with a fast and happy beat at the end. If you liked Sweet Kisses, I'm positive that you'll love Irresistible.
