5.0 out of 5 stars
Surprisingly Fun!, May 15, 2001
When I heard a Carter girl was coming out with an album and it was called "Like Wow" - the former Valley Girl in me said "Like, Yikes!" but then I heard it...Like Wow is aptly titled.The title song is fun and gets you moving. Its beat is great and it's easy to sing along to. True, the 2nd song is equally as good - a love song co-written by Leslies big bro Nick. As a mom of two and a die hard BSB fan, I really am finding the music of Aaron, Leslie and Nick (with the BSB) really refreshing and fun.

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great CD, July 31, 2001
"Like, Wow!" - I didn't really care much about Leslie Carter until I went to Aaron Carter's concert and saw her there. "Like, Wow!" was the only good song I heard her sing. A few days later, I ran into the store looking for the "Like, Wow!" single and found it. There was one last copy. I bought it and it was great. The "Like, Wow!" CD I bought included a free Leslie Carter sticker inside."True" - I must admit that when I first bought this single and heard True, it wasn't as good as I thought. I'm not one for Teeny-bopper love songs, and not only does this sound like a Teeny-bopper love song, it was co-written hy the biggest teeny-bopper of all...Nick Carter! I like the Spice Girls and am pure Anti BSB to the core. And when she says "but my friends tell me I love you", I could never imagine my friends coming up to me and saying "you love her". That's so unrealistic. OVERALL- This CD is really good. If you never heard it before, but are a fan of aaron carter, you should buy this single. Buy it for "Like, Wow!". I'm glad I got this because I'm not going to get her full album because all her songs except "Like, Wow!" are bad.

3.0 out of 5 stars
"True" sounds like her little brother..., July 15, 2001
By A Customer
I was sure that Leslie would be a short-lived pop "diva", and my assumption may be correct. "Like, Wow" was actually pretty good. Her voice is very pretty in this song, and despite the horrendously flaky title, it's fun to listen to. But as for "True"...it's just terrible. The lyrics are shallow ("my friends tell me I love you" what's up with that??) , she sings it mechanically, and her voice sounds awful! She sounds like Aaron did when he started, which is like a chipmunk. "True" was unbearable, I couldn't even listen to it the whole way through. It's because of "True"'s god-awfulness that I gave this three stars. I don't know why her voice sounded better in "Like, Wow" than in "True", but I'm seeing reasons as to why she hasn't become as popular as her brothers.
